While Boss Gao's team were picking their equipment, Lin Fan used his watch to check the exchange sites.
After putting in the number for his temporary license, he immediately gained access to the various exchange sites.
Since he had been recorded as the peak of the Silver Realm, he had access that was equal to the Gold Realm, allowing him access to the Gold Level Warehouses.
Looking through them, he found several things that were familiar, namely they were the special elixirs being sold in his store.
This exchange store used points for exchange and the exchange rate for points to crystals was at one to one.
Looking at the prices, the elixirs were being sold at a price that was several times what it was being sold at in his store. Seeing this, Lin Fan could feel his heart bleed from all the profit he was losing.
"System, can't you see how much they are selling it at? If we sell it at such a low price, we're clearly disrupting the market." Lin Fan tried to use logic against the system since everything else he had tried before didn't work.
"Host, everything has been marked at the price it is worth. The system does not care about the inflation found on this planet."
"But since we're on this planet, shouldn't we follow the customs and sell at the proper market price, even if it is inflated?" Lin Fan didn't give up.
"Host, you should follow proper business strategies and shouldn't think about cheating people. First warning."
Lin Fan really didn't know how to respond to this. For some reason, everyone seemed to be calling him a scammer, but this was just how he acted and how he looked…
Since he couldn't convince the system, Lin Fan continued looking through the catalogue until his eyes arrived at a certain item.
Golden Honey: When used, it has the ability to clear up all bacterial infection.
This was something that Lin Fan could use for his mother.
His mother's illness was mainly because of bacterial infection and with this Golden Honey, he could finally cure her of her illness.
While he hadn't known his new mother for long, the filial piety that came with the memories of this body influenced him heavily, making him quite filial as well.
Since he had a chance to help his new mother, he would definitely find a way to make it happen.
Seeing that Boss Gao and the others were back, Lin Fan asked, "Boss Gao, how does earning points for the exchange work?"
Boss Gao came over and saw that he was looking through the catalogue, "Oh, did something catch your eye? Well it's quite easy to earn points here, you either finish missions or you turn in materials from beasts you kill. For materials, you receive points based on what grade it is. Generally Iron and Bronze are worth less than a hundred, but Silver Grade and higher start at at least a thousand points. For someone like you at the peak of the Silver Realm, you should be able to get peak Silver Grade materials which are worth at least ten thousand points."
Lin Fan looked back at the price of the Golden Honey and found that it was worth fifty thousand points, which meant at least 5 peak Silver Realm beast carcasses. That would be his goal for this planar crack dive other than the mission from the system.
After receiving the information he needed, Lin Fan said, "Boss Gao, when are we heading into the planar crack?"
Boss Gao felt awkward since Lin Fan just jumped from one topic to the other, but he still respected his strength, so he just accommodated him, "There's still another team that hasn't arrived yet, so once they get here, we'll be heading into the planar crack."
"Oh, so how long before they get here?" Lin Fan said in a monotone voice.
"I don't know, but it should take at most another half an hour."
After that, they discussed a few details of how to arrange their team and for everyone to introduce themselves.
There were five members of Yang Xin's team and other than him and Boss Gao, the other members were Hou Zi, a young looking man who looked like a monkey with large ears, Mei Rou, a tall and tough looking girl who was the exact opposite of her name, and Zhuang Da, a meek looking man who had been peeking out from his book the entire time.
This really was a strange team, other than Hou Zi who was exactly like his name and Yang Xin who had a normal name, the others really were the exact opposite of what their names meant.
But they were all quite friendly and after talking for a bit, everyone had become close friends.
During this time, their team was surprised to learn that Lin Fan was actually a pet shop owner.
With how strong he was, there were a million different things that he could be doing instead, but he was running a pet shop.
However, when they heard that Lin Fan's shop was selling stuff like the Jade Flame Fruit for a fifth of the market price, they were all very interested in Lin Fan's store. It was clear that a store with this kind of financial backing wasn't simple, it was most like a store backed by some noble family.
As they were talking, Lin Fan demonstrated a bit of his knowledge when it came to beasts and they quickly agreed to let Lin Fan lead them around. Compared to Lin Fan, most of their group weren't that smart and it was much safer to be led by someone who knew what they were doing.
After around half an hour of chatting, the last group had finally arrived and they were told that it was time to enter the planar crack.
Before heading in, Lin Fan pulled aside Boss Gao for a talk.
Lin Fan lowered his voice and said, "Boss Gao, we need to be careful of Ao Jian after we enter the planar crack, he's clearly trying to start something."
Boss Gao was very relaxed as he said, "Ao Jian is always like that, it's because of the feud between our families that we treat each other like this."
Lin Fan kept trying to convince him, "No, Ao Jian is clearly trying to provoke you more than normal, which means that he probably has a plan."
Boss Gao was a little concerned when he heard this, "Brother Lin, what do you know?"
Lin Fan just gave a shrug, "I don't really know anything, but I know Ao Jian's type. The look in his eyes and the way he's acting, he's clearly plotting something."
Boss Gao thought that Lin Fan was thinking too much, but he still gave it the benefit of the doubt, "Alright, after we head into the planar crack, I'll make sure that everyone's on guard."
Lin Fan said, "That's all I'm asking."
Of course, Lin Fan didn't need to do this, but it was better to be safe than sorry.
After they came back to the group, Yang Xin and Hou Zi drove the two vehicles of their group into the planar crack and they entered a completely new world. What appeared in front of them was dense forests, as well as the other groups that had come in before them.
Once all the groups had entered the planar crack, the portal behind them had disappeared and they were seemingly stranded in here. Lin Fan walked back to the area where the portal had disappeared and it reappeared once again.
Ao Jian's group didn't miss this and they all gave cold laughs at Lin Fan, this noob in planar crack exploration.
After setting the coordinates of the exit to their navigation devices, the groups began to wander off in various different directions.
Lin Fan just led Boss Gao's group according to the map from the system since he had no other clues right now.
Their main mission in coming into this planar crack was to find out the cause of the disappearance and if possible, rescue the lost seekers if possible, so most of the groups were wandering off in different directions.
As Lin Fan's group left, they missed Ao Jian's cold and sinister gaze locked onto them and the cold smile that he revealed after they left.
