Linghe could not help but seek Ji Fengyan’s opinion. Ji Fengyan also did not have any reason to decline and was rather interested, so she decided to have a look.

Linghe was ecstatic as he went to pick out the ores. Ji Fengyan immediately called for Yang Jian and made him carry a basket of rare ores, as she left with Linghe to take a look.

In the city’s marketplace, there were seven to eight wide and spacious horse carriages parked. Besides the two that were used to carry people, the remaining horse carriages were all modified to look like a mobile store. There were countless people rushing from different parts of the city and all of them were carrying the rare ores that they had kept for a long time.

People surrounded almost five to six horse carriages and beside each horse carriage, there were two men wearing black long robes and had an embroidered pattern of a Shijiu on their chest. The half mask on their faces covered the top part of their faces that was above their noses, making them look mysterious.

When Ji Fengyan and the others arrived at the marketplace, it was bustling with so much life. The people that had come to sell their ores had formed a queue as long as a hundred metres and looked like a long dragon that had occupied the place.

“Does this group of businessmen have any conditions?” Ji Fengyan was quite curious. Judging by what she could see, quite a large amount of spiritual energy covered the ores that everyone was holding on.

“I am also not sure. It was only mentioned that this group of businessmen is a little special. Other than being able to exchange rare ores for gold coins from them, it was also possible to exchange other great items—a superior grade medication, highly valuable gem, and even a high quality weapon. It all depends on the quality of ore being sold and the wish of the seller,” Zuo Nuo scratched his head. He had also only learnt about the background of this group of businessmen that day.

“Superior grade medication?” After hearing this, Linghe could not help but suck in a deep breath.

A superior grade medication was extremely rare in the entire kingdom and most of them were directly served to the royal family, so there were hardly any of them that would be sold at a marketplace. It was really incredible that this group of businessmen were able to get their hands on the superior grade medication.

“Even though this is what they say, but according to what I heard, there was yet to be anyone who had a rare ore to exchange for the superior grade medication in Ji City,” Zuo Nuo shrugged his shoulders.

The majority of Ji City had good quality mineral veins. They were all controlled by Lei Xu previously and the mineral veins that the common people were able to get into contact with were all barren. Even if they had dug up a rare ore, the ore was either sold to a stone betting store or that they were too small to fetch a decent price.

It was almost impossible to exchange for anything other than gold coins.

“Miss, shall we try? If we can exchange for a few bottles of superior grade medication, we would be able to make huge profits,” Linghe rubbed his hands in excitement. Being someone who had been in the army before, he naturally knew the rarity of the superior grade medication.

But...

Ji Fengyan only shot a weird look at Linghe, who was full of excitement and was not at all affected by his emotions.

“Fine, if you want, it should be no problem to exchange for one bottle.” Ji Fengyan was not interested in the superior grade medication. After all, she did not believe that they could compare an ordinary medicine to the elixir of an immortal cultivator. However, it was possible to use it for comparison.

Linghe did not understand the underlying meaning in Ji Fengyan’s words, and his emotions were still high. It must be known that after Ji Fengyan had taken over the role of City Lord, the rich mineral veins were all controlled by her. Every day, Yang Jian came back with many rare ores, making everyone stunned.
