Ling Yu and Wan Shitong came to the Divine Capital. As Wan Shitong said, the Divine Capital is full of opportunities because there are many practitioners here and there are gangs of all sizes everywhere.

Ling Yu was also amazed by the prosperity of the divine capital. Shops were everywhere, selling a dazzling array of strange and strange products.

Likewise, housing prices in Shendu are also expensive.

The two of them stayed in a small inn on the edge of the city for the first two days, which cost fifty taels of silver a night.

Wan Shitong worked hard and finally bought a small yard in a remote alley in the city, spending nearly 30,000 yuan.

This is equivalent to using up more than half of Ling Yu's family fortune, which has caused Wan Shitong heartache for a long time.

But Ling Yu was already satisfied. She could buy this small courtyard at such a low price because Wan Shitong had the skills. Otherwise, according to the market price, this courtyard could be sold for fifty thousand.

"Brother, if the money is gone, let's make it again. Don't feel bad. We can develop our own careers when we have a family."

Ling Yu comforted her with confidence.

There are only six rooms in the small courtyard including the kitchen. They are very old and the roof leaks. If it rains, the whole house will be filled with water.

Wan Shitong bought the materials to repair it himself, and Ling Yu was responsible for purchasing daily necessities. After two days of busy work, it finally looked like a home.

Ling Yu personally cooked a meal to reward Wan Shitong, which made Wan Shitong smile from ear to ear.

After having a beautiful meal, he said to Ling Yu: "Brother, I will go out tomorrow to find out who can help you lift the ban, and then buy you some tools for practicing alchemy! Just stay at home and wait for me."

"Brother, I'm going out for a walk too, so I'll go to the market you mentioned that sells alchemy ingredients to get a feel for the market first!"

How could Ling Yu let Wan Shitong do all the work alone, he said.

"That's okay. Be careful. Don't get into arguments with others and don't push yourself!"

Wan Shitong worriedly warned: "The gods are crouching tigers, hidden dragons, and you have no martial arts skills. If you step forward rashly, you will cause trouble!"

"Okay, listen to big brother!"

The next day, Ling Yu got up early and made breakfast for Wan Shitong and herself. After breakfast, the two brothers went their separate ways.

Ling Yu has been shopping for daily necessities in the past two days and has become very familiar with some nearby streets. However, the market selling alchemy medicinal materials is on the other side of the city. Ling Yu wants to get familiar with the divine capital, so she goes shopping along the way.

The most numerous shops in Shendu are drug stores, with more than a dozen of them on one street.

The medicine shops that Ling Yu saw the most were Baibao Medicine Hall and Shanggu Medicine Hall. These two medicine shops are chain medicine shops. You can see the two medicine shops on almost every street, and they are both open facing each other.

The Baibao Medicine Hall is elegantly decorated, while the Ancient Medicine Hall is elegantly decorated. The two medicine halls are of similar size, and there are many customers coming and going in front of the door.

Ling Yu went into both medicine halls and walked around. The elixirs sold by both of them were priced from one thousand taels of silver. There were pills to assist in improving one's cultivation level, and there were pills to treat external and internal injuries...

Ling Yu took a cursory look and was a little surprised at how profitable the medicine hall was, and she was even more stunned when the clerk said that there were tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, or millions of top-quality elixirs.

If I could learn to practice these elixirs, wouldn't it be easy to make money?

But the more Ling Yu learned about it, the more she realized that her idea was too naive.

The reason why elixirs are expensive is because the medicinal materials are expensive, and some medicinal materials are simply unavailable. You have to go to the mountains and old forests to collect them yourself, or you can offer a large reward for them to be collected by talented people who specialize in collecting herbs.

Many people died in the mouths of wild beasts in the deep mountains and forests because of collecting medicinal herbs, so these expensive elixirs were almost paid for with their lives.
