Chapter Index

    Of course the young man’s name is not Laoke, but Puke!

    Lu Ye didn’t know what this man’s parents thought, giving him such a name, or maybe he thought it was funny and changed the name later. This was not something he needed to verify.

    By giving his name, he and Park truly got to know each other.

    Of course, he still used the pseudonym Li Taibai. The people in the Wanxiang Galaxy were complex and had various origins. He would never dare to use the name Lu Ye of the Nine Heavens Realm. If someone asked about his origin later, he would definitely report it to the Wushuang Continent.

    In Tang Jun’s understanding, he is the unparalleled Li Taibai.

    After waiting for a moment, a stream of light swept from the side and fell directly not far away, revealing a petite figure.

    The person who came was a woman with wheat-colored skin and a good figure, but her face could not be seen clearly because her face was covered with a veil. The veil was obviously a good spiritual treasure that could block the prying eyes of spiritual thoughts.

    She didn’t wear much, and her calves and even half of her arms were exposed. What made Lu Ye concerned was that the woman’s exposed skin was covered with strange and complex lines.

    Ghost clan!

    Lu Ye could tell the origin of this woman at a glance. The strange and complicated lines were not acquired tattoos, but the manifestation of the ghost clan’s bloodline.

    “Do you want to buy it?” The ghost woman looked directly at Lu Ye and asked.

    Lu Ye immediately understood that this was the person Park Ke had just contacted to sell fishing gear. He didn’t expect that he was a ghost and a woman!

    Because although there are many people fishing here, it is still rare to see women. Among hundreds of people, there are only less than twenty.

    What was rare was that Park Ke was looking at this woman with unblinking eyes. You must know that all the female nuns passing by nearby were followed by his eyes, especially the women with good figures, who he looked at particularly intently.

    “It’s me.” Lu Ye nodded.

    “Has the price been negotiated? I won’t lower the price!” The ghost woman looked at Park again.

    Pu Ke smiled slightly: “Don’t worry, I will do the work. I will do as you said, three thousand spiritual jade.”

    The ghost woman took a long breath and stretched out her hand directly to Lu Ye: “Pay the money!”

    Lu Ye didn’t tolerate her, and said calmly: “Let’s see the goods first!”

    The ghost woman tilted her head, then took out a storage ring and threw it to Lu Ye: “Everything is in there, count it yourself.”

    Lu Ye checked for a moment to make sure the goods were correct, and then handed the storage ring he had prepared in advance to the other party.

    After the ghost tribe woman finished her investigation, she took a long breath and said dirty words: “The damn thing is finally sold. This thing is really my pet peeve!” As she spoke, she glared at Park Ke resentfully: “My mind was really screwed up, and I was deceived by your sweet words!”

    Park Ke was speechless: “I advise you not to be impulsive. You saw that this job can make money quickly, so you insisted on joining shamelessly. Now you come to blame me, it’s so unreasonable!”

    “Anyway, it’s your fault. If you hadn’t caught a ghost in the first place, how could I have stepped on the trap!” As he spoke, he looked at Lu Ye again, with crooked eyes, he raised his head and patted Lu Ye on the shoulder: “From now on, you will be my ghost’s heartfelt friend. If you want to attack and kill someone, send me a message and I’ll give you a 20% discount!”

    Does this make you a friend who digs into your heart?

    But what concerned Lu Ye was another thing: “What is your Taoist friend’s name?”

    “Ghost! What? Have you heard of my name?”

    “No, no! I heard it for the first time today, and I thought it was strange.”

    I have never heard of Ghost, but I know Youping.

    They were both from the ghost clan, and they were all women. Lu Ye guessed that the two of them were related to each other. It could be seen that although the starry sky was vast, it was not very big.

    “Do you have any notes? Come and enjoy.” The ghost was very familiar with it and stretched out his little hand to Lu Ye.

    Lu Ye didn’t want to give it to her, and couldn’t refuse, so he could only take out his own note. The ghost took it, neatly left his mark, and threw it back to Lu Ye: “Remember, it’s 20% off!”

    Saying this, he walked away, very free and easy.

    After the ghost left, Lu Ye began to take out the fishing gear, and then, under Park’s guidance, tied a set of fishing lines to the fishing rod and tied the fishhook.

    Pu Ke gave him two more pills of bait. Lu Ye thanked him and took them. He hung the bait pills on the hooks and was ready to show off his skills.

    Looking around, ready to find a suitable place, Park Ke said: “If you don’t mind, just stay here. If you happen to have anything you don’t understand, you can always ask me.”

    Lu Ye thanked him and dropped the bait ten feet away from him.

    Although it was his first time to get started, the process was a bit awkward, but he had watched it for a long time before, and the process was still correct, and he also knew that he should focus on sensing the movement of the fishing line at this moment.

    Although no one on the entire fishing island had a harvest during the day, the frequency of fish eating bait was actually very high. From time to time, someone would lift the pole to reel in the line, and some would even slip fish, but the success would always fall short due to one reason or another.

    Lu Ye’s bait had only been in the water for half an hour when he felt movement in the fishing line. He followed the example of others and lifted the rod slightly, clearly feeling the fishing line stretch a little. When the bait came out of the water, he saw that a corner of the elixir hanging on the hook was missing, obviously bitten by a fish.

    “Although Bai Ling has no intelligence when it comes to rehooking, he is still very sensitive to danger. If the hook is exposed, he will never eat the bait.” Park gave careful instructions.

    Lu Ye followed the instructions and threw out the bait.

    After several hours of this, Lu Ye stopped his fishing rod for the last time and looked at the empty fishhook with a helpless expression.

    When I just looked at it, I realized that fishing here is extremely difficult, but after actually getting started, I realized that the difficulty is not ordinary.

    Over the past few hours, he has also had the experience of hitting fish twice, but the first time he closed the rod a little too much, the fishing line broke and the fish ran away.

    The second lesson learned, the fishing line was not broken, but during the battle of wits and courage with the white spirit, it still got unhooked.

    After a few hours, two bait pills, a set of fishing lines, and a fishhook were consumed, which can be said to be a heavy loss.

    “Don’t worry, you will always succeed if you try more.” Park Ke’s voice of relief came from the side. Seeing Lu Ye putting a set of fishing gear into the storage ring, he asked in surprise: “You’re giving up now?”

    Lu Ye shook his head: “I’m out of bait. Go back and buy some. Where should I buy it?” You can’t always use other people’s. Although Lu Ye didn’t know how much spiritual jade a special bait pill cost, he thought it wouldn’t be too cheap. It was a favor for Park Kefang to give him two pills. Naturally, he couldn’t keep using other people’s.

    Not relatives, not friends, but they have been of great help to me in the past.

    And counting the time, it was time for Lu Ye to go to the Vientiane Chamber of Commerce to retrieve his Panshan Sword.

    “The Vientiane Chamber of Commerce will be able to sell it.”

    Lu Ye nodded, said goodbye to Park Ke, and rushed out of the Diaoyu Island.

    After a quick trip, Lu Ye returned to Vientiane Island two days later and arrived at the Vientiane Chamber of Commerce by a familiar route.

    Cao Xiang had been summoned before arriving. When Lu Ye arrived, he went straight into the private room.

    Cao Xiang was already waiting. When he saw Lu Ye arriving, he bowed first, pointed to the things on the table and said, “Fellow Daoist Li, the knife is here, please check it!”

    Lu Ye picked up the Panshan Sword and unsheathed it, pouring spiritual power into it, feeling it carefully, and nodded slightly after a moment: “Okay.”

    The cracks on the long knife have disappeared, and there are no hidden wounds on the blade. The craftsmanship of the weapon refiners of the Vientiane Chamber of Commerce is still very good.

    “If the inspection is correct, I will also ask fellow Taoist to return the jade slips that I took away last time.”

    Lu Ye had forgotten about this and quickly took out the jade slip and handed it over.

    Cao Xiang checked it out and confirmed that the jade slips were correct. Then he pointed to the jade box on the table and said, “This is the bait pill that fellow Taoist needs. There are twenty pills in a box.”

    “What’s the price?” Lu Ye asked.

    “One bait pill is worth a hundred jade!”

    Although Lu Ye was prepared in his heart, he couldn’t help but be secretly surprised. No wonder there was such a rumor in the angler circle that fishing requires much more spiritual jade than he thought!

    Just look at his fishing in the past few hours. He only consumed two hundred jade.

    If a person fishes for a day and consumes one bait pill in three hours, he will need four bait pills, which are worth four hundred jade!

    This does not include the loss of fishing lines and hooks, which is only a day’s consumption.

    If there is a harvest during the period, you can still make a lot of money, but if there is no harvest for a long time, I am afraid it will be difficult for anyone to persevere. The ghost looks like he is going bankrupt in fishing, probably because he bought a lot of fishing lines and bait.

    Twenty bait pills are an investment of two thousand spiritual jade, which is equivalent to the price of one spiritual treasure.

    He had accidentally caught a Bai Ling before and sold it for only 2,600 jade. If he invested these twenty bait pills, he might not be able to catch one if he was not lucky.

    If you include the cost of buying fishing gear, it would be a full five thousand spirit jade!

    Lu Ye now only had more than a hundred jade left in his hand, so naturally he couldn’t pay for it, so he had no choice but to take out an unused spiritual treasure.

    He has about five or six unused spiritual treasures on hand. He originally kept them as spares for the sword gourd to swallow when needed, but now they can only be used for emergencies.

    After a moment of hesitation, Lu Ye simply took out all the useless spiritual treasures and placed them on the table: “Let’s estimate the price.”

    There will still be a chance to get the loot in the future, and it will not be too late to let the sword gourd devour it. Now he really needs more spiritual jade.

    As the person in charge of transactions with customers in the chamber of commerce, Cao Xiang naturally estimated the prices of a few spiritual treasures after seeing the big scenes.

    The six spiritual treasures, of varying quality, only cost about thirteen thousand jade in total.

    This price is undoubtedly much lower than Lu Ye expected.

    Cao Xiang saw his doubts and explained with a smile: “Li Daoyou, the value of the Lingbao ultimately depends on whether anyone needs it. The Chamber of Commerce has to bear the risk of not being able to sell the Lingbao. It may be a loss-making transaction. Therefore, the Chamber of Commerce has a price requirement for the acquisition of Lingbao. Generally, it will only be purchased at a 40% discount. If Li Daoyou feels it is not suitable, you can also take it to an outside store or retail market. The price may be higher, but it won’t be much higher.”
