Lin Shen arrived at the commercial island. There weren't many shops here, only about a dozen in total.
The shops primarily ran two types of businesses: selling items from the outside to people pioneering on Giant Ring Star and purchasing materials obtained by the pioneers.
To transport goods from the outside into Giant Ring Star itself required multiple layers of clearance. Only those with connections and backing could engage in such trade here.
The limited number of shops on the commercial island was due to the fact that those who could come here were usually Ascenders. A small number of Mutators who owned flying pets could also reach here, but they were extremely rare.
Each shop had local agents on land, and most transactions weren't completed inside the shop. Only a select few high-end items were traded inside the establishments.
Although the shops here carried plenty of high-tech items, they still lagged a lot compared to Meidu Star.
