[Congratulations on obtaining the special crop seed of the current world: Seed of Cleanliness x5.]
[Seed of Cleanliness: A unique crop seed from the Western Fantasy World (I). Plant it and obtain the pure radiance of the crop. To plant this seed, the magic power of the land has to reach Level-3.]
Although the description was only a few sentences long, Li Tianxiang obtained a lot of information, which made his reaction slightly slower.
Firstly, it naturally seemed as if he could obtain seeds of special crops from the various worlds in the Heavenly Market System.
Furthermore, these seeds seemed to be as rare as the special Peach of Immortality seed that he had previously obtained.
Secondly, the Western Fantasy World was labelled with a serial number. He would probably encounter Western Fantasy World II, III, and so on in the future.
However, he didn’t know whether he would be able to obtain more seeds or products from those worlds. He didn’t know what kinds of contracts he would be able to sign either.
Thirdly, he realized that there was another adjective in front of the word “land” — “the magic power of the land”. This meant that there might be different classifications of the land.
Fourthly, he did not know how to obtain a special land that contained magic power.
Lastly, he thought about the magic crystals needed to upgrade the Level-2 land. Li Tianxiang pursed his lips. It was probably not cheap to upgrade this land.
“Ah, it’s nothing. It’s just some plant seeds, and I just happen to have a farm. I’ll know after I plant them.”
When he came back to his senses, he saw that May and Lan were still studying the seeds in his hands. He quickly put the seeds back into the cloth bag and threw them into a spatial bag given by the system as if nothing had happened.
“It’s a spatial bag!”
However, this move shocked May and Lan. Lan even grabbed his hand and shook it.
“You’re a high-leveled mage from Dalaran, aren’t you? No, no, you’re a high-leveled alchemist, right?”
Upon seeing Lan’s excited look, Li Tianxiang’s mouth twitched. He had heard of Dalaran from the old man in the market.
Unexpectedly, he heard this name again from Lan. However, he had already realized that there were too many differences between the Dalaran in this world and the Dalaran from the game world in his memories.
For example, even though there were shops in Stormwind City, there were no such markets, let alone markets that sold slaves and succubi.
Because of this, Li Tianxiang didn’t intend to go to the market and say that he was from Dalaran.
Otherwise, if the Dalaran in this world was like a certain violent association in his memories, he wouldn’t be able to live peacefully in this world anymore.
Thus, he shook his head calmly.
“Like I said, I’m just a farm owner.”
On the other hand, Lan had an expression that looked as if she was saying, “Don’t treat me like a child and deceive me”. However, seeing that he wasn’t willing to say anything else, she didn’t pursue the matter further.
Meanwhile, May seemed deep in thought.
Li Tianxiang hurriedly coughed and interrupted her thoughts.
“Alright, if you don’t hurry up, I won’t be able to get 20 earth crystals today. I’ll have to deduct money from your family according to the contract.”
When Lan heard this, she immediately put on a vigilant expression as if she was a miser. She hurriedly ran towards the place in her memory and even turned back to hurry her sister and Li Tianxiang.
“Hurry up, Sister May. Do you want to give him money? Stop wandering around! We’re almost there. Hurry up.”
May looked at her sister speechlessly. She smiled apologetically at Li Tianxiang and quickly followed her.
Li Tianxiang could only shrug his shoulders. He followed Lan in the bustling market, but he couldn’t waste any time to see if there were any specialties in this world.
…
Soon, they arrived at an alchemy workshop that looked more orderly than the one from before.
Countless nobles, mercenaries wearing strange armors, and sloppy alchemists were entering and exiting the entrance of the workshop.
This showed the prosperity of this super-large alchemy workshop called the Blackstone Alchemy Guild.
Li Tianxiang only understood why this place was called the Alchemy Guild when he followed the crowd in.
After entering the workshop, apart from the eye-catching circular sales counter, there were three paths in the hall. The corners of the paths were labelled with the signs “Alchemy Materials”, “Products”, and “Rare Treasures”, leading the crowd forward.
As soon as Li Tianxiang, May, and Lan walked into the hall, a short old man who looked just like the old man from the slave market greeted them happily.
“Aren’t these the two young ladies of the Schariac family? What are you going to buy today? Let me tell you, a batch of potions just came out from the Blue Swan Alchemy Workshop today. If you use it on your face, it can make your skin even more tender and fair.”
The corner of Li Tianxiang’s mouth twitched. This old man was actually very similar to the salesladies on Earth.
Lan’s eyes lit up immediately and she ran to the old man’s side.
“So did you reserve two bottles for me?”
“Of course.”
The old man bowed slightly. Only then did Li Tianxiang notice that he was wearing a gorgeous robe that was too large for his figure.
When he bowed, most of his clothes were dragged across the ground, making him look rather comical.
“That’s the president of the Alchemy Guild, Warren Duncan. Do you see his clothes? He’s a gnome. Gnomes like flashy things like this, and they’re all profiteers.”
As he listened to May’s patient explanation, Li Tianxiang sized up the gnome. Under his persuasion, Lan took out her wallet and was about to pay.
“Lan!”
May could not stand it anymore and pulled her innocent sister back, causing her sister to complain.
After sizing them up, Warren immediately realized that Li Tianxiang was the center of attention.
Li Tianxiang was able to become the leader of the two young ladies from the Schariac family. Then, Warren thought about old Gordon and his character of only acting when there were benefits.
Thus, when Warren looked at Li Tianxiang, his eyes had already become like two shining coins.
“Esteemed guest, is this your first time at the Blackstone Alchemy Guild? If you need anything, please let me know immediately. I will definitely provide you with the best service. Of course, I only need some insignificant gold coins.”
No, Li Tianxiang gave this old man a score in his heart. He had simply failed.
If the salespeople on Earth were like him, not only would they not be able to sell their goods, they would also receive complaints. After all, it was too blatant to ask for money.
Just as he was about to refuse his so-called excellent service, May tugged at his sleeve.
“Agree to his request.”
Li Tianxiang turned around with a doubtful expression and whispered.
“Didn’t you say that he was a profiteer? Furthermore, he asked for money so blatantly. If I agree, wouldn’t I be like a pig waiting to be slaughtered?”
May almost burst out laughing at Li Tianxiang’s analogy. She covered her mouth and coughed.
