Chapter 677: Traveling Merchants

The Golden Sect and the Bright Silver Sect are both gold-attributed sects, and the relationship between the two is pretty good.

It is said that the leader of the Golden Sect has pursued Yin Qianyu in public many times. However, as the leader of a sect, Yin Qianyu would naturally not agree. Otherwise, the entire Bright Silver Sect might become a dowry.

Before Lin Li and his companions entered the Golden Sect, the Sect Master Yin Qianyu had already sent people to greet the people from the Golden Sect.

When they entered the first city of the Golden Sect, there were already people waiting for them.

This person was an elder of the Golden Sect. After seeing Lin Li and the others, he said directly: "I am Guo Sheng, an elder of the Golden Sect. The Sect Master sent me to assist you."

"You can still search for people in my territory in the name of recruiting disciples, but you cannot take anyone other than the three targets."

Lin Li said: "I am Lin Li. Thank you, Sect Master, and Elder Guo, for your understanding and support. We are only here to look for someone and will never do anything else. We will not take anyone else with us."

Lin Li understood that although they were called "assistants", they were actually another person to monitor him. However, it could be seen from the fact that the Golden Sect only sent one person. The relationship between the Bright Silver Sect and the Golden Sect must be really good. Otherwise, they would have to send a team with the same strength as them.

With the cooperation of the Golden Sect, the search speed remained at the previous pace. Half of the city was searched in 2 months. However, no clues were found.

That night, Lin Li left the pub with nothing as usual.

After arriving at the Huangjin Sect, in addition to going through the process of recruiting disciples, he also had to collect intelligence.

Yufei and the others have been in this world for more than two years, so maybe they will reveal some clues.

Just based on their appearance, anyone who has seen them will definitely have a deep impression. Even if no one believes it when they tell others about it, the story will still spread.

As for why they didn't collect information in the Baiyin Sect's territory? That's because there was no need for Lin Li to collect it himself. In the Baiyin Sect's own territory, if there was any special information, they would have told Lin Li long ago.

But the Huangjin Sect will not help him.

So Lin Li stood guard on the platform during the day and visited various bars at night. At this time, the Jinsha City where they were was a very prosperous city. It happened to be a festival. There were endless pedestrians on the road, and the vendors on both sides were also lined up.

Lin Li was not in the mood to look at these things, but this road was the only way for him to return to his residence, so he just followed the crowd and walked forward.

At this time, he happened to pass by a street vendor who was arguing with his customers. He was said to be special because his clothing style was very different from that of the local residents.

He just said, "These are all jadeite produced in the Jade Sect. They are quite popular among the upper class people there."

A customer who was selecting items asked in confusion, "What is jadeite? I've never heard of it before. Don't all those wealthy masters like jade?"

The vendor said: "Jade has a warm luster and soft color. Naturally, it is loved by people. But jade has been popular for a long time and it is no longer something that ordinary people like us can afford."

"And this jadeite has just started to become popular. Look at how crystal clear and emerald it is. It is in no way inferior to those exquisite jade articles."

"Why don't you collect some now while the price is low? I estimate that the price of this jade will rise rapidly in a short time."

The customer shook his head and said, "Although these products look good, you are asking too much for them. If the price doesn't go up, then I'm just buying a useless stone, right?"

With that he left the stall.

Lin Li was not very interested in jade and jadeite. Although they looked good, they were just stones to him. However, the merchant still attracted his attention.

Different clothes and goods from other places, this man should be a traveling merchant.

Lin Li walked forward and first took a look at the goods placed in front of him.

They were all jewelry made of jadeite, mostly small pieces, mostly rings and earrings. However, even if Lin Li didn't know much about jadeite, he could tell that its quality was average.

After taking a look, Lin Li asked the merchant, "Are all these goods shipped from the Jade Sect?"

"Of course, I'm from there too. I bought all the goods myself."

"Your people from the Jade Sect are selling things in the Golden Sect's territory?"

The merchant said, "Isn't that what we do as peddlers? Jade is produced over there, and silk is precious over here. We make a profit from the difference."

Lin Li looked around the stalls, picked up a pretty good looking trinket and asked, "How much is this?"

"Twenty taels of silver."

Lin Li didn't know how much this thing was worth, but businessmen like them would definitely offer a very high price.

Lin Li said: "Ten taels, I want it."

"Deal." The businessman said with a smile as soon as he heard Lin Li's price.

Lin Li naturally knew that the price was still high, but what he cared about was not the price of this thing.

After collecting the jewelry, Lin Li did not leave. Instead, he asked, "You have traveled a lot, so you must have seen a lot. I want to ask you something."

The businessman had just made a fortune from Lin Li, and was very happy at the moment. Hearing Lin Li's words, he said without hesitation: "I can't say I'm well-informed, I just met more people. What do you want to ask? If I know, I can tell you."

Lin Li asked, "Have you heard of any strange beauties along the way?"
