67: Chapter 47: Dealing with the Spoils of War (Two in One)_3 67: Chapter 47: Dealing with the Spoils of War (Two in One)_3 Upon hearing this, Xia Nan secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

He unloaded the backpack containing the Firefly Garlic Vines from his back and handed it to the other party.

“Hmm…

a total of thirty-two clusters of Firefly Garlic Vines, totaling thirty-two Gold Coins, please keep it safe.”

Edwina handed Xia Nan a money bag with the Green Grass Cauldron pattern on it.

Feeling the heavy weight in his palm, the corners of his mouth slightly turned up with inner satisfaction.

Suddenly, as if remembering something, Xia Nan took out a small cloth bag from his waist, with faint green water stains on the surface.

“This is…”

The two frameless glasses perched on Edwina’s nose reflected slightly under the sunlight coming through the window.

A hint of surprise appeared on her plump and smooth face.

“Rusted Monster?

You’ve been to the Dark Territory?”

She carefully pinched the dark purple Poison Gland, placing it under the sunlight for a careful inspection.

Faced with the shop owner’s curiosity, Xia Nan did not answer, just winked at her silently.

“Oh, sorry.” Realizing her gaffe, Edwina apologetically smiled and placed the confirmed Poison Gland back in the bag, “After all, this thing can be quite dangerous for the average adventurer, and it’s not exactly common here.”

“Let’s go with the market rate, 6 Gold, four Poison Glands in total for twenty-four Gold, how about it?”

“Alright.”

Unsure of the exact market price, but since she said so, Xia Nan agreed without bargaining.

His little treasury saw a significant increase.

…

After completing the task, the time had already come to morning.

The sun was blazing.

Xia Nan walked down the street with a backpack, pondering in his heart:

“Next, I should deal with those miscellaneous items like the compasses I have on me.”

Before he met the Half Elf and others, in the clearing where he discovered the Firefly Garlic Vine, he also engaged in a battle with two unlucky adventurers.

Except for the money bag that seemed to contain all their savings, 53 Gold and 6 silver, the other weapons and armor were too heavy and naturally weren’t brought back.

But there were still some little things that vanished into the backpack.

They should be enough to sell for a few meals’ worth of money.

Unlike last time, where he had an unidentified malachite needing appraisal, Xia Nan’s task this time hadn’t yielded anything with an uncertain price.

Therefore, instead of the rigorous and stingy “Fairy Wind,” he chose the more cost-effective “Kukunur’s Grocery Store.”

The store owner “Kukunur” was a rather cheerful Dwarf.

As soon as Xia Nan entered the shop, he enthusiastically introduced the business.

And as mentioned in the [adventurer’s manual], the prices were quite fair.

Just some scattered small items, yet they sold for 3 Gold 7 silver—originally 6 silver 5 copper, but Kukunur rounded it off.

“No wonder his business skills are ordinary, yet he is still noted in the manual, he’s indeed generous.”

Xia Nan thought to himself.

Thus, by this point, most of the loot he needed to sell that morning was completely dealt with.

After the first task, due to the purchase of weapons and equipment, his treasury had severely shrunk, but now it had soared to an unprecedented level.

From the duo of adventurers — 57 Gold 3 silver

Firefly Garlic Vine and Rusted Monster Poison Gland — 56 Gold

Reward from the Half Elf task — 100 Gold

Plus his original savings of over twenty Gold, now Xia Nan’s savings had astonishingly reached —

236 Gold 2 silver 7 copper.

Although it’s still only enough to buy half a bottle of [Light Resistance Potion], or one-seventh of a heavy armor plate.

But he was already very satisfied.

After all, this was just the savings accumulated from two tasks.

Xia Nan was even considering whether to buy another full bottle of Healing Potion for future needs.

“Right!”

Recalling the information he had gotten from Wood and the Half Elf during the previous task.

After completing the transaction, Xia Nan didn’t leave the store directly.

Instead, with a strong sense of purpose, he carefully scanned the shelves inside the grocery store.

“Customer, do you need anything?”

Seeing this, Kukunur couldn’t help but ask enthusiastically.

Xia Nan hesitated slightly, then glanced at the empty doorway.

Leaning closer, he tentatively asked:

“Do you have any ‘Battle Skill’ for sale in your shop?”

“Of course!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the Dwarf, who barely reached Xia Nan’s thigh, patted his chest and replied loudly.

He then suddenly ducked under the counter, making sounds of moving heavy objects.

And then…

“Bang!”

A huge cardboard box covered in dust was heavily thrown onto the counter by Kukunur on his tiptoes.

“Cough…

cough cough…”

Choking on the dust swirling in the air, he coughed while saying:

“Battle Skills, cough…

they’re all inside.”

“1 pound for 3 copper, if you buy 10 pounds, I’ll give you a thirty percent discount.”
