212: Netting

"Just standing on the street and receiving an item gets you 100 Spirit Stones!"

"If it weren't for completing a Family mission, I definitely wouldn't offer such a high price!"

The sharp-eared, monkey-cheeked Middle-aged Cultivator was ecstatic; if these 1000 Spirit Stones passed through his hands...

And he subcontracted it, he could hire 10 people for 100 Spirit Stones.

Then he would net 900 Spirit Stones!

How could Gu Changan not know what he was thinking? He directly pointed it out: "Don't try any tricks on me!"

"Bring the people to me, and I will pay the reward myself!"

"If you mess this up, my mission will be ruined!"

"Also, I need to hire them for one day!"

"Let's get these things straight first!"

"And another thing, I recognize you!"

"If you dare to play any tricks on me, don't think about staying in Tianbao City in the future!"

The sharp-eared, monkey-cheeked Middle-aged Cultivator was startled; were his intentions written on his face?

Had this green kid guessed his thoughts so quickly?

However, even if he couldn't earn 900 Spirit Stones, earning 100 Spirit Stones was still good!

One of these 10 spots would definitely be his, and he just needed to find a few more people!

Besides, what the other party said made sense; he wouldn't embezzle his treasure.

If it happened to be handed to him, he would just say he didn't see it!

Anyway, with 10 people, how would he know who it was given to?

He still had to live in Tianbao City, and offending a Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator was not a wise move!

What if he was chased and bothered by him every day?

There was no need to look for trouble over such a small thing!

He figured that whatever was being traded probably wasn't even a treasure!

So he readily agreed: "Just wait and see!"

"But Senior, when do you need the people?"

Gu Changan pondered for a moment: "Within the next two days!"

"Tomorrow would be best!"

"Anyway, we don't have a specific transaction time!"

"When you have the people ready tomorrow, wait for me at the East Gate of Tianbao City!"

The sharp-eared, monkey-cheeked Middle-aged Cultivator nodded earnestly, bowed to Gu Changan, and took his leave.

On the way back, he was still thinking about how easy these 10 Spirit Stones were to earn.

He got them just by talking, but he would have to think about the manpower.

He was leading them to earn Spirit Stones, shouldn't they show him some respect?

In this way, his income would be far more than 100 Spirit Stones!

Right, he would go back and give them a warning.

After receiving the Spirit Stones tomorrow, he would make them hand over half; let's see who dared not to give it!

Thinking of this, the sharp-eared, monkey-cheeked Middle-aged Cultivator chuckled out loud.

He could earn 500 Spirit Stones in one day tomorrow!

No, 600 Spirit Stones, simply delightful!

Meanwhile, Gu Changan began to ponder; he had just cast some bait, and he didn't know how many people would bite tomorrow.

He had arranged a wave of Donors at the East Gate; should he go and arrange some at the other gates too?

Subsequently, Gu Changan moved to the South Gate of Tianbao City, and performed the same operation.

However, this time he asked for 20 people, and his requirement for them was to tie a yellow ribbon on their arms.

Then the plan for tomorrow was to distribute them in the alleys on both sides of Tianbao Street.

In this way, all the Cultivators would form a grid-like arrangement.

No matter where he walked tomorrow, he would be able to encounter this Cannon Fodder.

As long as he casually handed out the item, he would be able to attract the attention of all the major forces.

At the North Gate of Tianbao City, he only asked for 10 people here, and the requirement for them was to tie on a white ribbon.

These 10 people were to remain at each city gate, serving as intermediaries!

The previous ones were the first wave of Cannon Fodder, and these 10 people were the second wave of Cannon Fodder.

The two waves of Cannon Fodder didn't know each other, so even if they were caught, they wouldn't be able to ask anything specific.

Finally, Gu Changan came to the West Gate of Tianbao City and looked at a row of Donors.

Gu Changan fell into deep thought; for the third wave of Cannon Fodder, ordinary Cultivators wouldn't do.

He would need a Foundation Establishment Cultivator!

But where could he find these Cultivators?

Although he had been in Tianbao City for two years, he was either Cultivating or on the way to Cultivate.

He simply didn't have the time to properly integrate into this city.

So where could he hire a Foundation Establishment Cultivator?

Gu Changan casually summoned a Donor with a beard and asked the question in his heart.

Who knew, the other party looked at him like he was a novice.

It was as if he was looking at a naive fool!

The Donor with a beard realized that Gu Changan didn't seem to be joking.

He judged that the person in front of him must be the young master of some Family.

Only such a person would be a naive fool.

Only someone who hadn't seen the world would ask such a question!

Which normal Cultivator didn't know this?

Moreover, the other party had already reached the Late Foundation Establishment Stage, which further confirmed his judgment.

However, this kind of person wasn't easy to provoke, but he was also truly generous.

He then adjusted his mindset and quickly bowed to Gu Changan.

"Senior, I apologize!"

"I really didn't react in time!"

"Since Senior asked such a question, you must have just left your Family, right?"

Gu Changan didn't suspect anything; he didn't know the reason, had he said something wrong?

He nodded silently, handed the other party 10 Spirit Stones, and waited quietly for the reply.

The Donor with a beard quickly put away the Spirit Stones, thinking to himself that it was just as he thought.

He then explained seriously: "Senior might not know!"

"Every city has underground forces!"

"That is what people call assassin organizations!"

"Or some villainous organizations!"

"You can post any task there, or request to buy items!"

"You just need to pay a certain handling fee."

"It's roughly 10% to 30% of the mission's value!"

"For example, Senior, if you posted an escort mission with a reward of ten thousand Spirit Stones!"

"Then these underground forces would charge a handling fee of one thousand to three thousand Spirit Stones!"

"Others who take this mission can earn seven thousand to nine thousand Spirit Stones!"

Gu Changan understood everything instantly; wasn't this just like the Sect's Mission Hall?

Could this be the trading place for Loose Cultivators?

No wonder this person looked at him like he was a fool!

Gu Changan rubbed his chin, feeling slightly embarrassed: "It's not my first time in Tianbao City!"

"So I'm not very clear about whether there are these underground forces here!"

"Do you have any good places to introduce to me?"

"Where is it? I can just go find it myself!"

The Donor with a beard nodded, not exposing the loophole in Gu Changan's words.

"I'll take you there, Senior!"

"Otherwise, I won't feel at ease keeping these 10 Spirit Stones!"

Gu Changan smiled: "That would be great!"

He then followed the Donor through the streets and alleys, arriving at the back of a tavern.

After entering from the back door, there were rows of tables and chairs inside.

Behind the counter, a blackboard was hanging.

It was densely written with items that people wanted to buy.

It was Gu Changan's first time here, so he was quite curious.

He kept examining the items mentioned on it; they were a motley collection, with all sorts of things.

From spirit rice and spirit paddy to corpses and blood, from Ore and plants to Medicinal Pills and Magic Treasures!
