In terms of making money, Lin Dong did not have the same level of business acumen as Xuan Su. However, he also did not intend to build any kind of commercial empire. All he wanted was enough spiritual medicine for his cultivation.
After much thought, Lin Dong realized he only had two ways to make money. One was refining Yang Yuan Stones. With the refining ability of the Stone Charm, he could basically refine one Yang Yuan Pill from three Yang Yuan Stones. This efficiency was three times that of ordinary experts. But at the moment, he did not have enough Yang Yuan Stones in hand. Those with strength would not easily sell this stuff, and collecting them individually was too troublesome.
Therefore, Lin Dong could only turn his attention to a simpler method: directly selling the spirit pills he refined using the Stone Charm.
From one fifth-grade spirit herb, Lin Dong could refine five spirit pills. These spirit pills, after refinement, not only had smooth and mixed medicinal properties but were also extremely easy for people to absorb. Compared to normally consuming spirit herbs, they were better by an unknown number of times.
According to Lin Dong's guess, when others consumed one fifth-grade spirit herb, the medicinal power that could be absorbed and refined was probably less than one-fifth of the overall medicinal power. The rest of the medicinal power either settled in the body or evaporated. But this effect, just one spirit pill could match it.
That is to say, for ordinary people, buying one fifth-grade spirit herb was not as cost-effective as directly buying one spirit pill. And this was the fastest way Lin Dong could think of to make money...
Of course, to sell spirit pills, naturally, one still had to go to the Ten Thousand Gold Auction House. Only there could things be sold at the highest price.
So, after a brief tidy-up, Lin Dong left the inn and headed straight for the Ten Thousand Gold Guild.
Lin Dong, at this point, was also considered a contributor to the Ten Thousand Gold Guild, thus having some status. So after seeing him, a servant immediately led him to Xuan Su, who was handling some affairs, with great attentiveness.
"Hehe, Young Brother Lin Dong, since you haven't come to see Sister for so long, I thought you had forgotten about me." Xuan Su, while reviewing some documents, looked up at Lin Dong upon hearing footsteps and smiled charmingly, her demeanor captivating.
Lin Dong chuckled dryly, slightly unable to handle the teasing from this beautiful supervisor who exuded a mature and elegant charm all over. He knew that Xuan Su wasn't much older than Xia Zhalan, but due to seniority issues, Xia Zhalan could only obediently call her aunt.
"Speak then, what brings you to Sister?" Xuan Su put down her work and smiled.
"I want to auction something off at the Ten Thousand Gold Guild." Lin Dong didn't beat around the bush. After pondering for a moment, he took out two jade bottles from his bag of holding. Each bottle contained ten spirit pills refined from fifth-grade spirit herbs.
