The three major embassies are all located in the eastern part of the city, belonging to a quiet upscale residential area. The free trade market is in the western part of the city, belonging to the busiest commercial street.
Shops and such have always been there, with the prices of the items displayed. You can take your time to browse when you come back. The trading market pays more attention to time. So Yun Tai was pulled by Bai Lieyan with his collar all the way from the east side of the city to the west side. This still...
It was Yun Tai's own request.
"The Medicine Merchant Free Trade Market..."
Standing in front of the seven-story mall, Yun Tai adjusted his slightly tight pharmacist gown. Hmm! The quality is good, there are no loose threads at all.
Entering the entrance, she realized that there were many more people in the mall than she had imagined. After averaging the age again, Yuntai regretfully banged her head, how could she forget about this! Elderly people have less sleep and tend to wake up early.
As usual, there are fewer store openings in the morning, isn't this a good place for morning exercise?
"Cloud... Moss Pharmacist?" A young male voice came from behind.
Yuntai turned around, wearing memorable glasses. "Ah, you are Cao... Cao..."
Cao Guo."
"Good morning," Yun Tai smiled and greeted, then performed a mage's salute to the elderly man beside him in a blue robe.
Bai Lie Yan glanced cautiously at the elderly man accompanying Cao Guo, calmly assessing their chances of success against Xiao Jin Yan, before settling down.
"This is your first time here, right, Yun Tai Yao Shi? Would you like to join me?" Cao Dong asked.
"Would it be a bother?" Yun Tai politely hesitated.
"I would be honored."
"This trading market has a total of seven levels. It is organized based on the rarity of the medicinal ingredients rather than the grade of the pharmacist. This is to prevent precious medicinal ingredients from being wasted due to improper storage. I wonder if Yun Tai...
Which floor is the pharmacist preparing to start from?" Cao Guo asked.
"It's up to the host. Do you often come here?" Yun Tai asked curiously.
Cao Guo nodded, "Yes. The items here have been carefully selected, and these pharmacists are all exceptional in their discernment. It's unimaginable to think of finding treasures that others haven't discovered in their hands... hehe." Cao Guo shook his head, "I dare not even think about it. I come here to train my ability to identify medicinal materials. Just like this fire banyan fruit," Cao Guo picked up a thin branch from a nearby stall, and four fruits hung from the tree branch.
A small red circular fruit the size of a pinky finger.
"A third-grade fire-type magical plant. Unfortunately, during the picking process, it was mishandled and not properly severed from the branch nodes, resulting in damage and rapid loss of medicinal properties. Although emergency remedial measures were taken afterwards, the effectiveness of the four fruits was still compromised. Judging from the color of the fruits, the medicinal properties should only retain about six or seven layers of their original strength. Considering the damaged areas during picking and the skillful remedial treatment afterwards, it seems that two people were involved. Wild third-grade magical plants are not easy to come by.
Too bad." Cao Guo put the fire fig back into the metal box.
The vendor gave Cao Guo a thumbs up.
Cao Guo looked at Yuntai.
Yuntai immediately raised two thumbs up.
曹崞有些不好意思地推了推鼻梁上的装饰眼镜：“这株火榕果给个价。”
"Three pills of fourth-grade Golden Yuan Pill," replied the seller.
啥？四品金元丹，还三颗？买一株受损的三品魔植？有没有搞错！他们长得就这么像冤大头吗？
Yun Tai looked at Cao Dong, waiting for his next move.
However, Cao Dong did not explain but instead took out a small porcelain bottle from his pocket and poured three golden pills into an empty crystal dish in the corner of the stall. After the stall owner inspected them and nodded, Cao Dong picked up the container storing the fire.
Rongguo's metal box is placed inside the storage ring.
"The transactions here are based on elixirs and medicinal herbs, bartering goods for goods."
"Are we not allowed to negotiate the price?" Yun Tai asked.
"Negotiations are allowed."
"Oh."
After waiting for a while, Cao Guo finally couldn't help but speak up: "Don't you ask me why?"
"Zhou Yu attacked Huang Gai, one was willing to fight and the other willing to endure. You don't look like a fool, so naturally you have your reasons."
"This Fire Ruby Fruit is not worth even one Golden Element Pill, let alone three. However, the handling technique used to prevent the loss of its medicinal properties is quite unique. I want to take it back and study it carefully. This handling technique is worth the price." Cao Dong explained.
This is called reverse deduction. It seems that Cao Dong is also a technician. I wonder if he is willing to be stationed at Yulan? Yuntai decides to take a closer look at this person's information.
The two continued walking forward, chatting and looking at stalls along the way.
"Yun Tai, are you really not planning to take the exam to become a fifth-grade pharmacist? You've already refined a fifth-grade pill, and it was almost a top-notch fifth-grade pill close to being a sixth-grade." Cao Dong asked.
In Cao Meng's opinion, it was really bothersome to see Yun Tai, who was capable of refining fifth-grade elixirs, wearing a first-grade pharmacist's badge. Instinctively, Cao Meng glanced at the badge on Yun Tai's chest.
Huh? She actually isn't wearing a pharmacist's badge. No wonder her popularity isn't as high as before! Cao Guo just realized why people are no longer as curious about Yun Tai. In Dan City, a First-grade pharmacist's badge can be considered unique to Yun Tai.
It's a sign. And in Dancheng, there are many low-key pharmacists who don't like wearing their rank badges.
"No thanks." Yun Hui refused decisively, "I have always been limited in talent in this area, and my interest is not in becoming a pharmacist. When I initially took the exam to become a first-rank pharmacist, it was out of necessity. You see, there are already so many alchemists, one more or less won't make a difference.
One less person won't make a difference, there will be no trouble finding someone to practice alchemy with. Besides, the management team in Dan City must be very busy right now, so if I go and bother them, wouldn't I be annoying them?"
Cao Ju stopped and thought for a moment, and it was true. Although Yun Tai invented the high-pressure alchemy furnace, it was only used on a small scale within the country of Yu Lan. Except for the time when the fifteen pharmacists of Yu Lan caused a sensation on the continent after successfully obtaining the qualification of a sixth-grade pharmacist, all other pharmacists consciously refrained from using this new magical tool during the assessment. Therefore, the various pharmacists' guilds across the region have not modified the rules for the assessment; they are waiting to see the stance of the alchemy tower. As for the alchemy tower...
The Elder Council will naturally prepare to discuss this matter after the end of the Pharmacist Grand Competition. If Yun Tai rushes to participate in the assessment for the Pharmacist level now, it would undoubtedly force Danta to make a decision immediately, which is inappropriate.
"Huh? What's this?" Yun Tai takes out a plant-shaped grass from a crystal box at a stall.
Sitting behind the stall is an elderly man with gray hair, wearing a badge indicating his level as a six-grade pharmacist. The pharmacist doesn't immediately explain, instead smiling and watching the young boy and girl carefully identify the plant.
"@Circle-shaped leaves, smooth surface, clear veins, green on the back, with sharp tiny teeth that can prick, and the bottom veins present a light pink color. This should be the Devouring Gold Vine," Cao Gui confidently handed the plant back to Yun Tai and said. Translated content: "@Circle-shaped leaves, smooth surface, clear veins, green on the back, with sharp tiny teeth that can prick, and the bottom veins present a light pink color. This should be the Devouring Gold Vine," Cao Gui confidently handed the plant back to Yun Tai and said."
"The Devouring Golden Vine" Yun Tai seems strange, "Mutated? From the name, it should usually be a vine-like plant, right?"
"The Devouring Golden Vine has a wide distribution. In colder areas, it mostly exists as a tree, while in warmer regions, it appears more as a vine species. It is quite rare to see its grass and wood form like this, so calling it a mutation is not entirely wrong," Cao Dong explained. He didn't show it on his face, but he felt a bit proud inside.

看到云苔把噬金藤放回水晶盒里，曹崞有些奇怪地问道：“你不要吗？”
云苔耸肩：“既然你说这算是变异的，那它吃金币能拉紫金币吗？”
Cao Ji Zhang opened his mouth in astonishment. The old man in the blue robe beside him also wore an incredulous expression as he looked at Yun Tai.
I was mistaken, really mistaken! Originally, I thought this little girl didn't wear the pharmacist badge to avoid showing off, but I never expected her to be so ignorant and unskilled! Selling medicinal herbs to someone like her is simply wasting precious materials. The pharmacist of the sixth rank behind the stall was so angry that he directly closed the crystal box as a gesture, indicating that he wouldn't sell it!
