In the southeastern prefecture, Jiang Hao drove the carriage toward the city.

It was not an ordinary carriage. It was powered by spirit beasts and moved quickly.

It looked ordinary, but it was expensive. Jiang Hao wanted to experience life as an ordinary person, so he became a merchant.

He bought and sold goods.

He did not make much profit. In the second month as a merchant, he lost half his money because he had bought the wrong things.

In half a year, he had almost lost everything. Jiang Hao was stunned.

His idea was good, but the execution of the said idea proved more challenging than he first expected.

This time, he continued his profession as a merchant. He did not seek to be outstanding at it. He only tried to sell as much as possible to break even. In the end, he made a small profit.

He mainly sold rouge and cosmetic powder.

The place of production was deep in the mountains. It was a small town that was isolated from the rest of the world. These were no special products, but the rouge and cosmetic powder from that place were of decent quality.

Since he had made his way there, he thought he might as well try. So, he bought a little rouge and cosmetic powder to sell in a bigger city.

He had thought that everything in the bigger cities would be of higher quality, but it turned out that the rouge and cosmetic powder from that small mountain town was far better.

For a while, customers flocked in.

That was why he kept going.

Otherwise, he would have changed his job long ago.

“It seems you’re not only bad at formations but also bad at business,” said a woman as she opened the curtain in the carriage.

It was Hong Yuye.

All these years, she had not talked much. She just observed everything quietly.

“Senior, you must be joking. No one is good at everything. After all, I’m just an ordinary person who is still learning,” he said with a smile.

“You have fine ideas, but they hardly apply to the cities here,” she said.

Initially, Jiang Hao wanted to teach people to change their business models, but it did not work out.

He wanted to conquer the people around him with new types of food, but that did not work either.

Those who could afford it did not like it, and those who liked it could not afford it.

The reason some people liked it was because they had never been able to afford meat before.

Since the meat was different and was seasoned with many things, they liked it.

“I overestimated myself.” Jiang Hao sighed.

“Now, what are you planning to sell?” Hong Yuye asked.

At that moment, Jiang Hao had made some money, but he did not know what to sell.

“Let’s go to a city and observe. Maybe I’ll find something in the surrounding towns and villages,” said Jiang Hao.

He had no experience in business and no such talent, but he still wanted to try.

After many twists and turns, another year passed.

It was the sixth year of their journey. Jiang Hao was sixty years old.

Around early February, Jiang Hao lost all his money.

He was a little anxious. It was not because of simple mismanagement that he lost all his money, but because he competed with others and fell into their trap.

In the end, all his efforts were in vain.

“Didn’t you see through such a small trick?” Hong Yuye asked.

Jiang Hao just sighed. He was not even angry. “I did see through it.”

“Then why did you fall for it?” Hong Yuye asked.

“Well, because if I didn’t fall for it, I couldn’t sell the goods. It would have been a waste to have all that food sitting there, so I sold it at a low price to the poor.” Jiang Hao shook his head and sighed. “I had a lot of food this time. They couldn’t accommodate me, so they wanted to lowball me and then take it away. When I’m gone, the other party will have the upper hand. My food had to be sold, so I had to jump in. Fortunately, I wasn’t taken advantage of by their people at a low price.”

Jiang Hao got into the carriage and drove away. “Senior, I realized that no matter how much I do business, I’m different from a real merchant.” He chuckled.

“How so?” Hong Yuye asked.

“I’m still me, a sixty-year-old cultivator at the early stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm. Even if I lose all my money, I won’t have lost everything,” he said. “No matter what I lose, my heart doesn’t waver.”

“If one day you were to become an immortal, would it still be you who becomes an immortal?” Hong Yuye asked.

Jiang Hao lowered his head in thought.

Finally, he drove away.

“I heard there’s a big city ahead, and immortals are ascending. Let’s go and see,” Jiang Hao said.

Hong Yuye got out of the carriage and sat beside Jiang Hao at the front. She looked ahead.

She often sat there and took in the world outside. Jiang Hao was nervous at first, but he soon became used to it.

He still dared not offend those around him, but many things became habitual.

Habit is truly terrifying.

If he were to go overseas alone now, he might even feel uneasy.

Five days later, Jiang Hao arrived in front of a big city.

There was a constant stream of people coming and going. It was bustling with activity.

The city wall was the highest he had seen in the southern region, and it harbored a mighty power within.

However, this power had been dormant for many years, seemingly unable to be stirred.

“This city is not simple, but unfortunately, not many people know about its extraordinary nature.”

If such a hidden power were to erupt, countless sects would definitely come over here to suppress it.

Walking on the street, Jiang Hao heard the cries of vendors and saw the bustling scenery.

Such scenes were rare.

As time passed, the situation in the south became turbulent.

Many areas erupted in turmoil, and chaos constantly engulfed the surroundings.

“Senior, do you want to buy anything?” Jiang Hao opened the umbrella and held it over her.

The sun was shining brightly, so he was shielding her from it.

“Do you still have money?” Hong Yuye glanced at Jiang Hao.

Jiang Hao said softly, “I’ll always have money to buy something for you, Senior.”

“How about some tea then?” she asked.

Jiang Hao did not respond.

Over the years, he had exhausted the packs of September Spring and could only afford ordinary tea.
