Chapter 5: Unexpected News

Alex, I've been waiting for a long time."

John West sent the customer in front of him away and walked straight towards Alex. Half a month later, he still remembered the last time Alex came to sell talismans.

"Please."

The two came to the small counter, and John said, "Are you still here to sell talismans?"

Alex nodded and took out fourteen fire talismans from the storage bag.

John carefully examined the fire talismans.

"It seems that you have made some progress in making talismans, and longevity is expected."

He recalled that Alex sold twelve fire talismans last time. At the same time, he bought back twenty talisman papers. This time, fourteen fire talismans were sold. As expected of a well-rounded manager, he makes people sound extremely comfortable when he speaks. Even Alex, a poor man with low-grade five-spirit roots, was still listening to it. Or, someone could be a manager, but he was rejected even if he wanted to work as a miscellaneous person in the Treasure Pavilion.

Alex smiled politely and said, "Sir, please bring me another bottle of spiritual ink, two talismans, and a bottle of Miasma Elixir."

John was quick with his hands and feet and quickly placed the things Alex needed, as well as the additional six spiritual stones, on the counter.

"Fellow Taoist, do you know how to make the miasma dispelling talisman? If you can, this treasure pavilion will buy it for five spiritual stones."

Alex was stunned for a moment. How could he not know the Miasma-dispelling Talisman! When he first started, he wanted to make a miasma-repelling talisman. In his memory, the miasma dispelling talisman has always been sold very well in the market, and the selling price is five low-grade spiritual stones. Now the Treasure Pavilion has begun to purchase five spiritual stones, and it seems that the demand is quite high.

The cost of a miasma-repelling talisman is two and a half spiritual stones, and it takes two or three times the effort of making a fire talisman. With his previous appearance comparable to consumption, it was probably impossible for him to support the production of the miasma-repelling talisman. Therefore, when choosing and making talismans, he temporarily excluded the miasma-dispelling talisman.

"Fellow Taoist Alex seems to be concentrating on making talismans and is unaware of the major events that have occurred. A new mineral vein was discovered in the thirty-sixth area of Qianliwu outside Cloudfield Market. Many fellow Taoists in the Qi training period got the chance, and some picked up second-level hematite ore. Miasma is dense here, and many fellow Taoists need miasma-repelling talismans to clear the way."

"I picked up the second-level ore."

Alex couldn't help but lament the good luck of those who picked up the ore. Second-level ore is the material for refining foundation-building instruments. A piece of the most common second-level ore, only the size of a fist, is worth more than 500 spirit stones. His back molars were broken. Why wasn't he the one who picked up the ore?

"Fellow Taoist, are you interested in looking for opportunities?"

John chuckled and spoke.

"I'm not good at running, so I won't join in the fun."

Alex refused without thinking. Are you kidding, there was no way before. Now that he has finally become a Talisman Master, he doesn’t have to go out to waste time. Isn’t it good for him to sell miasma-repelling Talismans? Why risk your life?
