As Qin Feng and the other two walked towards the mountain gate, Ye Shen seemed somewhat absent-minded. Qin Feng asked as they walked, "What's wrong? Did you find anything unusual?"
Ye Shen shook her head, her eyes shining as she said, "Their clothes are so beautiful! Their people look no different from us, but their skin is so fair, didn't you notice?"
Reminded by Ye Shen, Qin Feng finally realized that the people in this world did indeed look very similar to them. However, their skin was fairer, and their clothes were different. They were neither cotton, sand, nor silk, but a material he didn't recognize!
It looked very elegant when worn, and indeed, it was quite beautiful.
Qin Feng looked at Ye Shen and then asked, "Are there similar clothes available for purchase in the shops?"
Ye Shen was very knowledgeable about clothing and accessories, as she often browsed shops in her free time. Women are naturally very fond of such items.
Hearing Qin Feng's question, she shook her head and replied, "I've looked through all the clothes in the shops, and none of them are made of that fabric. This material should be unique to this world, and it cannot be purchased in the shops. Their styles are also quite special, and there are no similar styles in the shops."
Upon hearing this, Qin Feng nodded. The reason he asked such questions was that if they wanted to travel in this world, they needed to blend in with the locals. If their clothes were completely different from those of the people in this world, they would be approached wherever they went. Everyone would know they were from the Savage World and would want to swindle them or do business with them.
He hadn't come to this world to do business, but to find what he needed. He didn't want to get involved with unimportant people.
Now, he needed to find a shop to exchange some of this world's currency and then buy some clothes.
As they were thinking, they had already arrived at the mountain gate. There were two disciples guarding the gate. Seeing that Qin Feng and the other two were dressed differently from them, they knew they were from the Savage World.
Therefore, one of them blocked the entrance and said, "You people are from the Savage World, aren't you? Would you like to stop for a meal and lodging? Do you have any places to go? I can arrange a guide for you, you just need to pay me a fee. How about this... 10 grams of dragon's saliva, and I'll lead the way for you?"
10 grams of dragon's saliva was equivalent to 1000 gold. At this price, they could buy many items in the shops, even hundreds of pounds of gold. It was too expensive to hire a guide.
Ye Shen was about to refuse, but Qin Feng stopped her. He said, "Alright, I'll pay you 10 grams of dragon's saliva, and please lead the way for me."
Hearing this, Ye Shen was very surprised. They had just refused the five disciples. Ye Shen guessed that Qin Feng didn't want others to know about his wealth, fearing that revealing it would bring him danger. But why was he so generous to a low-level gatekeeping disciple now?
He had agreed to the price quoted without even bargaining!
Ye Shen privately messaged Qin Feng in her mind, expressing her doubts. Qin Feng replied, "It's precisely because these two gatekeeping disciples are very weak and pose no threat to us that I'm showing them my generosity. This way, they will diligently serve us and save us a lot of trouble. They are not capable of harming us, but the five disciples from before were different. They were very strong, and there must be important figures behind them. If they knew I had a lot of money, we would be in great danger. But these two gatekeeping disciples are of no concern to us. They will only obey our every word and try to gain some benefits from us, without harboring any intention to harm us."
Hearing Qin Feng's explanation, Ye Shen understood.
The two gatekeeping disciples were also a little surprised by Qin Feng's straightforward answer, but they quickly reacted and immediately put on a respectful demeanor, saying, "No problem, as long as you buy 10 grams of dragon's saliva from us, we will definitely arrange it to your satisfaction. How about this... there is a top-notch tavern at the foot of the mountain, which has a deep connection with our sect. Their dishes are incredibly delicious, and people from your Savage World always praise their cuisine. I will lead you there. Then, I will find the best hotel at the foot of the mountain to arrange your accommodation. If you have any requests in the future, just tell me. Whatever your requirements, as long as the price is reasonable, I will fulfill them for you!"
After speaking, he made a gesture of invitation.
Another person, being very observant, came to Qin Feng's side. He glanced at the unconscious 204 and said, "Is this brother injured? He looks unconscious. Would you like me to find the best doctor to examine him?"
Qin Feng shook his head and said, "His condition has improved a lot, and he will wake up soon!"
The man didn't say anything further, nodded, and then said very respectfully, "You are our honored guest, how can we let you do such manual labor? Why don't I carry him down the mountain? It will only cost an additional 1 gram of dragon's saliva, what do you say?"
1 gram of dragon's saliva was only a hundred gold. Seeing the man's fawning attitude, Qin Feng finally understood the principle of being a master with money.
No wonder the person who sold him information was so unwilling to work there, even willing to betray information to get money. It turned out that 100 gold was already a large sum of money in this world. However, Qin Feng still didn't understand the use of dragon's saliva. In his understanding, this was something used to make perfume, with some medicinal value, but not high. Why were people in this world so fond of it?
Qin Feng was puzzled, but this information was not important to him.
Thus, the group began to walk down the mountain. The two gatekeepers no longer guarded the mountain gate; they followed Qin Feng down the mountain, completely unconcerned about any punishment they might face from the sect later.
Qin Feng was also very curious and asked as they walked, "You are coming down the mountain with me and not guarding the gate. Aren't you worried about being punished?"
One of them chuckled and said, "It's fine, we have connections. The chief of the disciplinary department is our relative. As long as we share some of the dragon's saliva we get with him, he will turn a blind eye."
Qin Feng then asked, "What is the use of dragon's saliva to you? Why is it so precious? Is the currency of this world dragon's saliva?"
One of the gatekeeping disciples heard Qin Feng's words and chuckled, "Of course not. This world has many currencies. The most important and valuable is spirit stones, which are the source of cultivation. The power contained within spirit stones can help us improve our realm! Next are gold coins, silver coins, and copper coins. These metals are recognized by all major cities and are the most valuable currencies, allowing you to purchase various things you need! Dragon's saliva is just relatively precious. Some people specifically buy dragon's saliva, offering one spirit stone for one gram. We know that people from your Savage World do not have spirit stones, which is why we ask for dragon's saliva. We can then exchange it for spirit stones."
