Chapter 218: Immortal Cultivation Union
"Fellow Daoist, I've prepared some tea for you on the second floor. Why don't you have a cup of tea..."
He Shuixiu extended the invitation with a smile.
"No! I have something else to do. I'll buy something and leave."
Xu Changshou was speechless. He didn't understand why shops in the cultivation world all liked to invite customers to drink tea.
He didn't want to drink He Shuixiu's tea. Firstly, he felt it would waste time, and secondly, he was afraid that He Shuixiu would recognize him.
You know, he and He Shuixiu had been cooperating before. After he established his foundation, the cooperation automatically terminated, but he did not notify He Shuixiu.
Therefore, he was afraid of being recognized by He Shuixiu and couldn't speak.
He Shuixiu nodded, not forcing anything, but smilingly asked, "What do you want to buy, fellow Daoist?"
Xu Changshou: "I'd like to purchase some thousand-year-old spiritual wood. Do you have any?"
He Shuixiu looked embarrassed: "Sorry, our thousand-year-old spiritual wood... is currently out of stock."
"That's a shame!"
Xu Changshou was helpless.
Sure enough, Wanxian Pavilion was also unwilling to sell the thousand-year-old spiritual wood.
Wanxian Pavilion’s business is so big that it is impossible that it does not have thousand-year-old spiritual wood. They just don’t want to sell it.
"When will there be no shortage of goods?" Xu Changshou asked.
He Shuixiu's face was slightly bitter: "Friend Xu, the thousand-year-old spiritual tree is not under my control. Please don't make things difficult for me."
"All right!"
Xu Changshou continued, "I'd like to buy some scraps of thousand-year-old spiritual wood, some discarded materials. I think this fellow Taoist should have some."
"What do you want scraps for?"
He Shuixiu was a little surprised. She had worked in Wanxian Pavilion for so long, but she had never seen anyone buy scrap thousand-year-old spiritual wood.
Xu Changshou explained, "I want to make some gadgets and trinkets to give as gifts."
He Shuixiu nodded: "I do have some scraps, they are all in the warehouse, I will go get them, please wait."
"Thank you!"
He Shuixiu twisted her body and went to the warehouse.
After a while, he returned with a low-level storage bag in his hand.
Coming closer, she smiled and handed the storage bag to Xu Changshou: "Friend Xu, all the scraps are here. Take as much as you need."
Xu Changshou took a look into the storage bag and couldn't help but show joy. It was worthy of being the Wanxian Pavilion. There were more than a hundred kilograms of thousand-year-old spiritual wood fragments.
Unfortunately, no special thousand-year-old spiritual trees were found, only ordinary spiritual trees.
"I want them all. How many spirit stones are there? Fellow Daoist, give me a price."
Xu Changshou nodded with satisfaction and put the storage bag away.
He Shuixiu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "These scraps of wood haven't been weighed, but they should be no less than 100 kilograms. Calculated at 10 spirit stones per kilogram, you only need to give me 1,000 spirit stones."
"Row!"
Xu Changshou decisively paid the spirit stones and left Wanxian Pavilion.
In the past few days, the price he paid for the wood chips was calculated based on ten spirit stones per pound, and Wanxian Pavilion did not ask for more.
There is another benefit to purchasing wood chips. Although Xu Changshou only collected wood chips, when he asked Huo Qilin for reimbursement, he would calculate the price based on the normal thousand-year-old spiritual wood.
Fifty yuan per pound, so if it's 300 pounds, that's 15,000 yuan.
If Xu Changshou sold 300 kilograms of scraps from the thousand-year-old spiritual wood, he could earn 12,000 spirit stones just from the difference.
So cool.
Now, Xu Changshou has two hundred kilograms of thousand-year-old spiritual wood fragments in his hand. If he has another hundred kilograms, he will have enough to complete the five-year mission.
In the Dongyu Immortal Cultivation World, in addition to the Wanxian Market and Pingyang Market, there are several other markets. If you go to all of these markets, it will not be a problem to collect 300 kilograms.
However, the other markets are quite far away, and running to each one is a waste of time.
Xu Changshou decided to go to the Immortal Cultivation Guild first. If he could get the thousand-year-old spiritual wood in the Immortal Cultivation Guild, that would be the best. If not, he could only use this method to collect all the waste materials in the Immortal Cultivation World.
There is too little scrap wood in the world of immortal cultivation. Even if all of it is collected, it will only be enough to complete a few years of tasks. After all, people have been storing this scrap wood for who knows how many years, and the scrap wood can only be collected at one time.
In the future, we will have to obtain the thousand-year-old spiritual wood from other channels.
"Let's go to the Xiuxian Guild first."
Having made up his mind, Xu Changshou went straight to the Immortal Cultivation Union.
The Immortal Cultivation Guild of the Dongyu Immortal Cultivation World is jointly owned by the five major immortal cultivation sects: Green Immortal Sect, Hehuan Sect, Wanchui Sect, Mohist School and Wanxian Tower.
The headquarters of the Xiuxian Guild is in Wanxian Market, and there are branches of the Xiuxian Guild in all major markets.
There is also a branch in Pingyangfang Market.
Information is shared between the headquarters and branches.
No matter where the task is issued, a copy will be made in other immortal cultivation guilds.
For example, if the Xiuxian Guild in Pingyangfang City releases a task, the task will be forwarded to various Xiuxian Guilds, and all headquarters and branches can see it and accept the task.
Similarly, no matter which immortal cultivation guild you accept the task from, when you collect the reward, you can just find a immortal cultivation guild nearby.
Of course, there are also tasks that come with special rewards. After completing the task, the employer needs to report it to the Xiuxian Guild. The task can only be considered completed after both the Xiuxian Guild and the employer confirm it at the same time.
The reward for such tasks is usually not spirit stones, but some kind of treasure. This treasure is in the hands of the employer before the task is completed. Once the task is confirmed to be completed, you can go to the employer to claim it.
If the employer does not acknowledge the debt, the Xiuxian Guild will step in to settle the matter with the employer.
Of course, under normal circumstances, no one dares to mess with the Immortal Cultivation Association. They are the five major immortal sects. Who would dare to provoke the five major immortal sects if they have nothing to do?
The headquarters of the Xiuxian Guild is located on the most prosperous street in Pingyangfang City, just a few alleys away from the Wanxian Pavilion and around the corner.
The headquarters of the Xiuxian Guild is quite grand, occupying six storefronts.
After entering, the six facades are divided into two parts, namely the front hall and the back hall.
The front hall is where tasks are posted, while the back hall is filled with various tasks.
If you want to post a task, just find someone in the front hall. After posting the task, it will be posted to the back hall and other immortal cultivation guilds.
If you want to receive a task, go directly to the back hall and look for the task yourself. Once you find a suitable task, report to the front hall.
Of course, whether you want to post a task or accept a task, first of all, you have to become a member of the Xiuxian Guild and register.
Registration for the Immortal Cultivation Guild is based on real-name registration. No matter which sect you belong to, or whether you are a casual cultivator, you must reveal your true identity.
The reason why the Xiuxian Guild uses real-name registration is also for security reasons to prevent people from causing trouble.
This was Xu Changshou's first time visiting the Immortal Cultivation Guild, so he had to register in the front hall first.
There was a counter in the front hall, and inside the counter sat a fat old man with a dignified look, who was at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage.
There was a sign on the counter with the old man's name written on it - Shen Gongtu.
Glancing at the sign, Xu Changshou bowed slightly and said, "Greetings, Fellow Daoist Shen Gong."
"What?"
Shen Gongtu asked calmly without even raising his head.
The people in the Immortal Cultivation Union are jointly appointed by the five major immortal sects. They are equivalent to people in public departments and have a very high status.
Unlike those shop owners who always smile when they see people, Shen Gongtu is very serious and a bit condescending.
