Female supporting roles are not cannon fodder

Chapter 38

The reason why Ming Yan suppressed his patience to socialize with the other party was to get an invitation card from the Gouyan faction.

This transaction is also Ming Yan's personal capacity, so it has nothing to do with the Daishan faction, so Ming Yan can accept such a condition.

The reason why the Gouyan faction chose to interfere in the affairs of the secular world when it was in decline was because of the resources of the secular world. Not all things that are beneficial to the cultivators need to be picked by the cultivators themselves. That is simply impossible. Some people without spiritual roots are more likely to be picked, not to mention that there are more people without spiritual roots than cultivators.

Since many cultivators are unwilling to take the risk of interfering with the secular world and being unable to pass the catastrophe, they will more often make short-term transactions with the dynasties of the secular world. The royal family has also learned to count and count several times. They will collect more precious things and are not willing to trade them.

This is also the reason why it is becoming more and more difficult for cultivators to complete transactions with the secular world. Both sides are in a stalemate, and neither is willing to take a step back.

And the Gouyan Sect, which had to withdraw, undoubtedly gained a lot of benefits. At least most of the treasures accumulated by the royal family for so many years belonged to them. What they got in exchange was their protection of the royal family, and the royal family The things that can be restrained are too simple, and the Gouyan faction doesn't need too many things of the same kind at all, so they opened this trade fair for the purpose of exchanging the surplus items in their hands.

It's just that exchanging with the big sect will undoubtedly be at a disadvantage. If the big sect faces the lay world, it may be a little bit worried because of crossing the catastrophe, but it will never show mercy when facing the Gouyan faction, which is also a sect, so this time Gouyan The faction is a trade fair held privately by myself, and everyone attends strictly according to the invitation.

Ming Yan came here for that invitation card. There are things he needs here. As for why he didn’t exchange the incense powder directly with the Dynasty, the incense powder itself is what the Dynasty needs. Gou Yan faction probably went through all of them, and now they probably can't even get the most common things out, Ming Yan doesn't want to waste time on them at all.

The fair organized by Gouyan lasted for several days, and it had already been opened for two days when Ming Yan got the invitation, so they went directly to the fair after lunch.

"Why should I go?" Lin Lan walked along with Ming Yan speechlessly. In fact, Ming Yan had already reached the foundation building stage, so he could completely fast without waiting for her to have lunch.

"Go for the opportunity, otherwise what would I bring you out for?" Ming Yan answered quite naturally, and rubbed Lin Lan's head a few times, completely treating her like a pet.

It was this feeling that made Lin Lan not know what to say. She was simply treated as a pet by someone, and she even used the erratic excuse of chance.

They were pulled over speechless all the way, many passers-by were watching them, Ming Yan dragged Lin Lan all the way to a very simple looking inn like no one else, and took out the invitation to enter a very ordinary inn. The guest room, passed through the restrictions inside, and finally reached the trading place.

Different from the simplicity outside, the inside is simple to the point of crudeness. It is obviously a space that has just been opened up, and there is no plan to clean it up. With all kinds of things, even if it is a stall.

Lin Lan looked at the world inside in disbelief. She never expected that it would be so simple. Even if it wasn't as she imagined that a large group of people would auction things there in a trading hall, it wouldn't be as simple as it is now. You can sit and buy and sell things anywhere!
"It's okay. Anyway, here is space. It's nothing." Mingyan didn't feel anything strange. He had seen the simpler ones. The ground was not dusty, so he could sit on the floor. Moreover, it was such an atmosphere. It is convenient for transactions, requires a lot less manpower, and the cost is also much lower.

Seeing Ming Yan's calm expression, Lin Lan deeply felt that he was making too much fuss. Knowing that Ming Yan still had his own mission, he simply waved his hand and said, "Go and buy yours, I'll go shopping around."

The things Ming Yan wants to buy should not be in such an obvious place, so in order not to delay, Lin Lan still wants to go shopping by himself. As for how Ming Yan can find himself, that is his business.

Ming Yan thought that this is a space after all, it is very safe, and Lin Lan also has a waist card, so there should be nothing wrong, so he nodded, and the two separated.

The stall owners all fell asleep on the ground, as if they were drunk and had no image. They ignored Lin Lan at all, and they didn't even worry that the things on the stall would be stolen.

When Lin Lan saw those small and exquisite things, she couldn't help squatting down to take a look. Some of them would be very interested in holding them in their hands for a few times, and then put them back where they were.

I saw quite a few things just now, but none of them moved Lin Lan enough to buy them, and Lin Lan didn't find anything unusual in the aura sense, so he didn't want to buy those things.

After walking a few stalls, her hands were still empty, but her feet kept squatting, which made her very uncomfortable.

Lin Lan simply stood up and looked around, until he saw something he was interested in, then he knelt down to look at it.

After shopping for an unknown amount of time, Lin Lan saw a stall with a dazzling array of items, too numerous to count.

Lin Lan has always been interested in those jade ornaments, so he squatted there and moved his hands to have a look.

In the unintentional flicking of her fingers, her fingertips suddenly seemed to touch a puff of heat, which made her focus immediately, and searched one by one to see which piece of jade it was.

Soon, Lin Lan felt a warm feeling being touched, and it was even warmer in the palm of his hand. Even the aura couldn't help but flow towards the jade.

Lin Lan immediately controlled the impulse of spiritual energy, and looked at the stall owner with a face that was not showing the mountains and water, and even picked up a piece of jade that looked very pleasing nearby, and said to the stall owner: "Hi, may I ask you this?" How many spirit stones do you need for two pieces of jade?"

It should be because the prices are similar that they put all those jades in the same area. The stall owner who heard Lin Lan's question opened his eyes dimly. drowsiness.

When the other party saw that Lin Lan was a child, he didn't make any trouble. He stayed where he was, and directly reported the number: "Two pieces and one middle-grade spirit stone."

Lin Lan really didn't expect the other party to offer such a price. A middle-grade spirit stone is something she can afford, but it doesn't mean she wants to spend so much money here.

"Can it be cheaper, what if I only need one piece?" Lin Lan's original intention was to want one piece, and picking up another piece was just to test it first.

"One piece is 400 low-grade spirit stones." Lin Lan's appearance is obviously capable of confusing people. Generally, merchants will not deceive people too much with children, but will try their best to quote the price directly.

When the other party said this, Lin Lan immediately pretended to be hesitant, comparing a piece of jade in each hand, as if hesitating which one to buy.

"Shopkeeper, can this one be cheaper? You see, this one is less pleasing. I don't have enough spirit stones." Lin Lan directly took out the one she wanted, and looked at the other party with an aggrieved expression. With a serious financial crisis, she has completely become Grandet's kind, adhering to the principle of saving as much as she can, and using the privilege of children without any pressure.

The store owner was a little bit dumbfounded. Looking at Lin Lan's immature face, he still waved his hands and said, "Bring me 300 low-grade spirit stones."

Soon, Lin Lan finished the deal, and when she looked back, she saw Ming Yan's figure who seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

"When did you come?" Lin Lan suddenly wanted to look at the sky without words, and it was really embarrassing to say, especially when Ming Yan was familiar with his own nature.

Lin Lan was fully prepared to accept the other party's teasing, anyway, just say it, she didn't hear it.

Ming Yan saw that the other party looked like you were teasing casually, but he was not interested in teasing anymore. He casually rubbed her hair and said, "Do you still want to continue shopping? If you don't want to, let's go back."

It was obvious that Ming Yan had already bought what he wanted to buy. Lin Lan looked around, and all the stall owners were lying there as if they were drunk, but Lin Lan still couldn't feel relieved.Just like the stall owner who received her just now, maybe each of them is extremely sober.

"Let's go back to the inn first." Lin Lan is not greedy, she understands the truth that opportunities come and go, and one of them is already very rewarding.

And she is really interested in the thing Ming Yan bought, and it must be of great significance to him to be able to let the other party go to the mountain to buy things.

Ming Yan is a sword cultivator, and sword cultivators have always advocated not relying on external objects for cultivation, that is to say, those things must have nothing to do with cultivation, what else can be left.

If it wasn't for the wrong occasion, Lin Lan wanted to ask Ming Yan to take out that thing directly. It must be some precious vanilla material. It's impossible if you have experience. Besides, how can there be extra things like experience? If the Gouyan faction really has this The things will definitely not be traded, and the rest may only be vanilla materials, maybe she can see another feast of incense making that is very enjoyable.

Based on his familiarity with Lin Lan, Ming Yan immediately knew that the excitement under Lin Lan's calm face was really a child, and he was becoming more and more rude to him.

Cultivators are very guarded against each other, such as Ming Yan, if they get some adventure, even if their companions know a little bit, they will never take the initiative to ask to see something, and they will not even detect it, unless Ming Yan takes the initiative to speak.
