City Return Stone

After teaching Lee Wanshan the method to fight the Bone Devouring Ants, Cheng Yang walked into the Task Hall alone to submit the special task.

After he chose to submit the task to the virtual screen in the middle of the lobby, a strange light suddenly lingered in front of Cheng Yang's face. A moment later, the light condensed into a token-like item with a weird design.

Specialty Business License Token (City Return Stone): Deliver the token to the owner of the grocery store in the territory. It will give the territory the rights to sell the specialty. The tax rate for the specialty product is 20%.

Sure enough, it was this thing. When Cheng Yang saw the words "City Return Stone", he felt his hanging heart totally relaxed. The role of this City Return Stone was too practical. It was almost a necessity for professions.

For Cheng Yang, this City Return Stone wasn't only want he needs but also because the specialty belongs to the territory, its 20% tax rate would helped the territory earned quite an abundant amount of power value.

Of course, the function of the City Return Stone wasn't as strong as the return scrolls that could be found in games. It even had a lot of restrictions on its usage. However, there was no denying that the City Return Stone was a very excellent specialty product.

Since it's called a specialty product, it was naturally unique to one or more territories. As long as it was handled properly, a specialty product could bring enormous benefits to the territory.

Cheng Yang immediately seized the business license token and went to the grocery store. Before the grocery store's boss's shocked face, he handed the token over.

"Lord, you … how did you get this token?" The grocery store's boss sounded quite agitated, he even spoke in honorific. After all, being able to manage a specialty product could very well become a highlight of his career.

Cheng Yang's remarked in a flat tone, "It's just a specialty product. Make sure to manage it well. In the future, more products will show up in Luo Feng Village."

"Yes, yes. I will run the shop as if my life depends on it. I will make sure Luo Feng Village's grocery store becomes the most famous grocery store in the world." Whether if it was the token or perhaps Cheng Yang's words that infected the grocery store's owner, but enabled him to have the idea of becoming the boss of the number one grocery store in the world.

Cheng Yang ignored the boss's expanded ego and said, "Hurry up and get the authorization to sell the City Return Stone."

The boss of the grocery store snapped out of his daze, and immediately went to the back of the store. After quite a while, he came back out with an expression of excitement that has still yet to subside.

"Lord, I've got it. Also because we are the first territory in the world to get a specialty product, the sale authority of the our specialty product was directly raise to level 2. Lord may not know the difference in the sale authority, so let me explain it. Level 1 sale authority can only allow the sell of 100 items a day, while level 2 sales authority can sell 200 items. If you want to upgrade it later on, you must first reach the corresponding sales to promote the level." The boss said with some pride on his face.

Cheng Yang was already aware of this, he said, "I understand. Now sell me all 200 City Return Stones."

The grocery store's boss opened his mouth but no words came out. After a long time, he said with difficulty, "Lord, City Return Stones are very expensive. You can see…."

Cheng Yang sternly interrupted him, "What? Are you afraid I can't afford it? Don't you accept credit here?"

The grocery store's boss laughed in an embarrassed manner and said, "Lord, your status is very respected. Of course, there's no need for me to worry about you not paying back credit. However, our shop has rules. Only if you complete a certain amount of transaction in our shop, otherwise you won't be able to purchase items on credit."

Cheng Yang said, "Fine. Then just give me 100 City Return Stones."

This time, the boss didn't hesitate to remove a box from the shelf. Inside were stones the size of a quail egg, engraved with mysterious runes.

"Lord, each one is a thousand power values, so altogether it's 100,000 points. Lord, please pay up." said the grocery store's boss with a look of gold in his eyes.

Cheng Yang secretly despise the other side's attitude, and then from his account transferred over the 100,000 points of power value. Then he received the box containing the City Return Stones.

A thousand points of power value for a City Return Stone was certainly very high, but its function was absolutely worthy of its price.

City Return Stone: One-time consumable. Available for usage in any area of the main world that doesn't restrict transmission. Three seconds after activating the stone, you can instantly return to your settled town. You can not use the return stone within three minute after stepping out of combat. A person can only use one return stone per day.

Looking at the item, Cheng Yang felt quite pleased with himself. After saying his goodbye to the grocery store's boss, he left the store.

Cheng Yang didn't need to walk far. He went directly to the pub near the grocery store.

Once again, he ordered a cup of Sky Water Pure Brewed Wine before looking for a place to sit down. At this time, the pub was still very deserted. All of the professions in Luo Feng Village are in the army, and were under a unified system. Therefore, no one has much leisure time to visit the pub.

After finding a spot to sit down, Cheng Yang skillfully opened the forum to the Ten Thousand Treasures Building. Cheng Yang discovered that some items were already being auctioned inside. However, the majority of the items were basically strange and all-encompassing. But one thing they all had in common was that they were items that people basically didn't know how to use.

At this stage, what items does people didn't know how to use? All items related to the territory falls in this category, because territory-related items could only be used in field stations. They wouldn't work in the main city. So even if other professions get one or two such items and could see the item's description, they couldn't use it.

Some clever people speculate that these items might contained certain important role, so they chose to hold on to these items for the time being. But for other people that didn't had many ideas flashing in mind, they would choose to hang these items in the auction of the Ten Thousand Treasures Building and hope that they would sell for a good price.

However, these people weren't stupid. They would set the base price for these items astronomical high. After sweeping through the list with a glance, Cheng Yang saw that not one item was below 50,000 points of power value.

Some of these items were obtained from the wild, while others were obtained from clearing an instance.

Now was the 20th day following the apocalypse. A large proportion of the leaders of the main cities has upgraded to medium-order apprentice. It was also possible for some main cities to have even dozens of such expert. As long as the mutual trust between each other was high enough and the leader's control over all the professions in the main city was sufficient, they could rely on the main city's large quantity advantage to allow some people to take the lead and open up four times cultivation speed. Doing so would make this goal fully achievable.

By relying on 50 medium-order apprentice, there was a great chance of clearing through a medium-sized instance.

Although the proportion of the main cities that has the ability to clear the instances wasn't high, the quantity of main city in the entire world were massive. Items that were useful to individual were immediately purchased from the list or highly bid on. There was also a large number of items that were related to the territory, but no one could fathom how they worked.

Truthfully speaking, Cheng Yang also found one or two good items that he likes on the list. However, their price was a bit outrageous.

Phoenix Residential Park Architectural Drawing: Record the construction method for the Phoenix Residential Park. After sacrificing the drawing to the altar, it would enable the territory to gain the authority to build the Phoenix Residential Park. (Phoenix Residential Park: Special Residence. A splendid and magnificent residential building that can enhance the cultivation speed by 120%. Can accommodate 10 people cultivating at once.)

Phoenix Residential Park was also a type of residence. However, it belongs to a kind of residence with a surname. Its function was more powerful than the villas in the main city. It was a very nice building. After all, the main city's villa could only improve the cultivation speed by 100%.

However, the owner of this drawing had marked it at a price of 5 million points of power value, which made him feel dejected.

Sure, Cheng Yang admits that the Phoenix Residential Park Architectural Drawing was indeed worth this price. The monthly rent of a villa in the main city was 100,000 points of power value, not to mention that using this drawing could construct a building that could be used forever. But it was completely impossible for Cheng Yang to take out 5 million points of power value at the moment to buy this drawing. Even if he could come up with so many power values, he wouldn't use them buy it.

Maybe some days in the future where he had nowhere to spend his power value, he might think of buying this kind of building for his own usage. However, that time was definitely not now.

There was also an item that allowed you to transfer to a special professions priced at 2 million points of power value.

F***! Were these people driven crazy by power value? Could they not be aware of the preciousness of power value in the early stage? Moreover, these were only the auction base price. As for competitive bidding? Forget about it. At the moment, no one could afford this kind of price.

Cheng Yang began to lose interest in viewing these items because the price for these items were currently too ridiculously high.

Cheng Yang immediately removed the small box containing the City Return Stones from the storage ring. He took out a City Return Stone from inside the box and wrote the properties of the stone onto the list in the Ten Thousand Treasures Building. Afterwards, he set the item auction price at 3,000 points of power value. Cheng Yang didn't set a price cap for the item, and only set the time limit for the auction. It was just 10 minutes.

Cheng Yang's idea was very simple. It was to buy the City Return Stones from the grocery store, and then put it up for auction in the Ten Thousand Treasures Building.

His heart wasn't black. He spent 1000 points to purchase the City Return Stone, so as long as it brings him double the profits he was satisfied. However, the fees was obviously not going to come out of his own pocket, therefore these extra 1,000 points of power value would suffice to pay the handling and processing fees.

Afterwards, Cheng Yang told the waiter to come over and handed the City Return Stone to him.

Contrary to his expectation, this young waiter was quite knowledgeable. He actually knew that the item was called City Return Stone. As a one-time consumable, this item wasn't very valuable. But at this stage, it was actually very rare.

After the young waiter took the City Return Stone away, Cheng Yang paid close attention to his auctioned item.

After five minutes, there was still no movement.

Cheng Yang wasn't feeling anxious about whether or not people noticed the item, but whether they would think this item was worth the price. As for some people, even if they want to buy it, they might not be able to because of shortage of power value.
