The trade covenant shop in the small town of Balu is actually guarded by an old man in his sixties.

And all the goods that are collected here are only collected on a regular basis.

Even the trade pact itself has indeed spread its tentacles to a small town of this size. But even if they were, they wouldn't be in such a lonely place, with too luxurious manpower.

So this slightly isolated environment just met Su Mu's most ideal needs.

With the crisp ringing of the copper bell tied to the door, Su Yan, the "girl" who came to the trade area, also walked into this shop casually.

"Little girl, what to buy?"

Seeing Su Mu's arrival, the old man in the shop immediately greeted him.

"Do you want to buy some delicate jewelry, or do you want to buy some rouge cloth?"

As he spoke, the old man also habitually looked at Su Mu's dress, and after noticing a certain detail, he asked again in a firm tone:

"Or do you want a more beautiful lyre?"

Obviously, the old man, who had been in contact with all kinds of commercial goods all year round, instantly saw through the clumsiness of Su Mu's lyre. Therefore, it is natural to think that Su Mu wants to replace this instrument.

However, for the old man's question, Su Mu not only did not give a reply, but was slightly shocked.

Even immediately slightly annoyed, he still underestimated the difficulty of cross-dressing after all.

However, these thoughts in Su Mu's heart were still carefully hidden behind the tulle by him, and he didn't really notice the old man in front of him at all.

So the only thing the old man could see was the girl in front of him, not only did she have no intention of buying anything. Instead, he took out a cloth bag the size of a walnut from his bag, and then unfolded it in front of the old man little by little.

As for Su Mu's actions, the old man was really a little strange.

After all, although trade covenants also buy goods, compared to the ranks of merchants who win by volume, giant institutions such as trade covenants do not buy things of low value.

But it was also the old man who just wanted to remind Su Mu of this.

The green cloth wrapped in the items in Su Mu's hand was finally completely revealed, and the item in it was ...... It was even more displayed in front of the old man's eyes.

"Qi core?"

A subconscious low cry sounded from the old man's mouth in an instant.

Obviously, the item that Su Mu wanted to sell was the organ where the delusional beast stored Qi Neng...... Qi nucleus.

And after the old man whispered, he immediately took a handkerchief from the counter, carefully picked up the Qi core, and carefully observed the color of the Qi core.

Then another low cry bloomed from the old man's mouth again:

"It's ...... The Qi core of the seventh order of small characters?"

......

Obviously, although there is such a thing as Qi Core, the old man has indeed acquired a lot.

However, this small character seventh-order Qi nucleus is rarely touched even by the elderly.

After all, in a small town like Balu Town, even small-character seventh-order warriors rarely appear, and where would someone sell this grade of Qi core at will.

And as the old man confirmed the quality of the Qi core, Su Mu immediately gave this Qi core a reasonable enough story:

"This is what a lone ranger paid me before, and he said that this thing can be exchanged for a lot of money, and I really need money now, so I ......"

Su Mu deliberately showed a complete blankness, and deliberately claimed that he still did not understand the value of Qi Core.

To the greatest extent, reduce the suspicion of others about the origin of the Qi nucleus.

And in fact, Su Mu's way of obtaining this Qi core is indeed unknown. Because the real source of this Qi core is also exactly ...... The companion skeleton beast that was killed by Su Mu and others.

In that wasteland, under the slanting sun, Han Jun, who contributed the most, suddenly betrayed everyone completely.

And at that critical moment, Su Mu also successfully forced Han Jun to escape.

Therefore, when the mercenaries were separated, the mercenaries who finally survived did not hesitate to give the best reward...... Decisively gave it to Su Mu!

However, the old man under the Trade Covenant was even more decisive than Su Mu imagined.

Because of the absolutely neutral nature of the trade covenant, they don't really care about the true source of the items they sell.

Therefore, before Su Mu could say more, the old man had already made a price and said:

"The small-character seventh-order Qi core, if you follow the average price of the Maz City Auction House, is about the price of about twenty gold coins. But as you can see, our organization is also profit-making. So the highest price I can give you is about seven to eighty percent of it, about fifteen gold coins. ”

For the price given by the old man, Su Mu was completely able to accept it.

But even so, Su Mu did not immediately respond to this transaction, but after thinking about it slightly, he went back to the original topic:

"So, can you add a lyre of acceptable quality?"

As for Su Mu's additional request, the old man immediately agreed without thinking about it.

After all, in this world where force is respected, almost all the things that are really valuable are things that can improve themselves or are extremely rare.

As for the instruments used by the bards, even if they were struck, they were only a few silver coins at most, which was not enough to make the old man hesitate.

......

And at this point, the old man has also shown enough sincerity.

Of course, Su Mu immediately agreed to the deal, and neatly pushed the Qi core in front of the old man.

But at the same moment, just as the old man was about to put the Qi core away, a palm that passed through Su Mu's ear suddenly interrupted the deal that the two were about to reach.

Seeing this, the old man raised his head a little inexplicably.

At this time, Su Mu frowned slightly, and looked behind him more and more cautiously.

And as Su Mu turned around and looked, the figure that caught Su Mu's eyes at this time immediately made Su Mu break out in a cold sweat.

I saw that the person who stopped this transaction was the black-robed man who was the leader of the attackers.

Fortunately, the black-robed man put most of his attention on the Qi core at this time, and did not pay too much attention to the girl in front of him, and even said directly:

"You're going to sell this thing, and what if I give me another 20 percent, whatever they buy?"

However, for the indiscriminate entry of the black-robed man, Su Mu was completely unwilling to have much contact with him.

Therefore, at this moment, Su Mu did not answer the black-robed man's question, but still neatly took away the gold coins listed by the old man.

Then he hurriedly twisted the lyre prepared by the old man, and walked directly to the outside of the store.

It's all about expressing it with action...... Since the Qi core already belongs to the trade covenant, if the black-robed man wants to buy it again, it has nothing to do with Su Mu at this time!
