Chapter 156 Meeting Luo Li
Chapter 156 Meeting Luo Li
While Luis was in Fantasy World, many changes has occurred in this world.
The most obvious is Casual Cultivator market in Zhou Main City.
Here, many branches of Hartmann Flying Sword Shop.
Because the Shop sells flying sword that can be used by Qi refiners it has always been hot selling and short in stock.
Some cultivators even acted as retailers and brought this flying sword to the battlefield making even more profits.
Now only a few weapon shops on Casual Cultivator market are still struggling to survive and are unwilling to close their doors.
However, they dare not play dirty tricks on Hartmann Family because there had been bloodbath already.
There was Mo Family which wanted to rob the Hartmann Family, however they were suppressed and later even the many family members died before many people took their eyes away from Hartmann Shops. This family cannot be offended.
Even if they had the courage, they would not dare to ambushed and kill the Hartmann family cultivators halfway.
Since we can't force it, we can only solve it through normal business channels.
And normal business.
How could these second-hand magic weapon shops compete with the Hartmann family's Spiritual weapon shop?
Not to mention the difference in quality of spiritual weapons between these second-hand spiritual weapon shops and the Hartmann Flying Sword Shop. Enjoy new adventures from empire
Let's talk about the cost of both.
These Spiritual weapon shops are no match at all.
The second-hand magic tools sold in these Spiritual weapon shops are all purchased from the children of various families through special channels.
The price is usually higher than the cost of refining a new spiritual weapon.
How low is the cost of refining the Hartmann family's flying sword?
The red copper ore used in the Hartmann family's refining of the Flying Sword almost all came from transactions with the mermaids.
Coupled with the assembly line production of Factory.
It would be fine if the other party just operated normally, but if they wanted to engage in a price war with the Hartmann Flying Sword Shop, they would probably suffer losses so great that they would bleed.

However, Luis was not worried about this
Luis stood on his sword, flying swiftly towards the Redwood Islands.
Today marked the beginning of the month—the day he had agreed to trade with Luo Li.
When he arrived at the Hartmann Pavilion, he spotted Luo Li leaning against the pavilion railing, her back turned to him, gazing out at the sea.
Her upper body was captivating, her figure exuding charm that made Luis's heart skip for a moment.
However, as his gaze traveled downward, he saw her lower body wasn't the slender legs of a human woman but a shimmering fish tail, nearly ten feet long, gently slapping the seawater below.
Sensing his presence, Luo Li turned her head and caught sight of Luis flying toward her on his sword. A smile blossomed on her pretty face.
"I came earlier than you this time!" she said through voice transmission, raising her small fist with a touch of pride.
Hearing her playful words, Luis chuckled, leaping off his sword to land gracefully near the pavilion.
"Long time no see, Miss Luo. How have you been?" he greeted warmly.
"I'm fine," Luo Li replied with a thoughtful smile. "Not just me, but my mermaid tribe has finally gained a foothold near Demon Ape Mountain, thanks to the weapons you provided us."
"Ours was a fair trade," Luis said with a grin. "There's no need to speak of who helped whom."
"Still, I have to thank you," Luo Li said earnestly. "Because of you, my people are safe and thriving. Thank you, truly."
Luis gave a modest nod and steered the conversation elsewhere. "By the way, I've always promised to trade spiritual rice with your mermaid tribe. Today, I've brought it."
He gestured toward a cargo ship anchored in the nearby sea. "Though I must warn you, the amount may be a bit... excessive. Do you think you'll be able to transport it all?"
Curious, Luo Li tilted her head and asked, "How much is 'a bit'?"
"You should come and see for yourself," Luis said, smiling.
"Alright, let's go," Luo Li agreed.
The two of them flew toward the cargo ship.
Once aboard, Luis led her to the hold. When it was opened, the sight of jade crystal rice filled nearly half the space.
Upon seeing so much food, Luo Li was momentarily speechless with excitement.
In the underwater world, mermaids primarily survive on algae imbued with spiritual energy. However, algae cannot compare to the rich nourishment provided by spiritual rice.
Feeding on algae makes it challenging for mermaids to sustain their cultivation. Only by occasionally hunting monsters can they slightly improve their lives.
For mermaids striving to cultivate both their bodies and their qi, the path of cultivation is arduous and filled with obstacles.
In contrast, humans have a far superior cultivation environment. Not only do they possess a complete alchemy system, but they also excel at growing a wide variety of spiritual medicines and fruits, as well as cultivating spiritual fields.
Luis couldn't help but admire the ingenuity of humans when it came to utilizing cultivation resources.
I really racked my brains to figure all this out, he thought.
It is this innovative approach that has elevated the human race to dominance, allowing them to suppress countless other races underfoot.
The human race's rise to power hasn't been due solely to their reproductive capabilities but also to their relentless exploration and refinement of the cultivation path.
Inside the cabin, Luo Li's eyes sparkled as she gazed at the spiritual rice before her. Turning to Luis, she asked, "Can I summon my tribesmen to take it away?"
"Of course," Luis replied with a smile.
A short while later, mermaids began emerging from the sea, climbing aboard the cargo ship. Each carried an elegant, white giant shell, uniquely crafted to transport the rice.
One by one, they loaded the spiritual rice into their shells. The process took over an hour, but gradually, the cabin emptied.
