The eunuch and the Hundred Households of the Jinyi Guard rubbed their eyes, making sure they were not seeing things, fists-sized pearls, and coral trees as tall as a man, such things could only exist in heaven, and could never be of the Human World!

Ming Country also had its own merchant courtyards selling goods, including porcelain, silk, tea, and writing materials like brushes, ink, paper, and inkstones.

Porcelain, before the blue and white of the Yuan dynasty, was the art of fire and earth, focusing on the craft of firing, seeking the quality of the porcelain itself. After the emergence of blue and white porcelain, the craft became rougher, with all sorts of paintings, a myriad of colors, the more vibrant the better, even producing pieces that had been fired a dozen times over as a display of skill, increasingly flashy.

The people from Yu Country were mostly of exotic origins, where all furnishings need only be functional, following a "simple and unsophisticated" approach, yet they had never crafted such delicate items.

This time, the visiting party was composed of princes and princesses from major clans, all with deep pockets. Seeing something they liked, they would immediately ask the price and then wish to purchase it.

In Mingyu Immortal Market, there was a courtyard with a different layout, a two-story building with a cellar built of rocks underneath.

Shi Feiyang had set up a bank here, bringing in large amounts of Dragon Coin and gold and silver, where anyone could come to exchange the two currencies, fixing the exchange rate at one Single Dragon Coin for one ounce of silver.

Many officials and wealthy merchants from Ming Country came to visit, and out of curiosity, exchanged some silver for a few types of Dragon Coin, holding them in their hands, admiring them over and over again.

The bank's clerks told them, "This is the Dragon Coin of the Immortal Dynasty, which you can use to purchase whatever you want from us. Normally having it on you, it can warm your essence and condense your Qi, calm the mind and nourish the blood. All demons, evil spirits, and ghosts will not dare to approach within five steps of you, and common Witch Gu Curses will have no effect on you..."

Shi Feiyang had refined the Dragon Coin to an extremely exquisite standard. Crystal Jade was a special product of the Outer Heaven Divine Mountain, with an outer layer as transparent as crystal and an inner layer of milky white cloud-like substance. When touched by the sunlight, it seemed to surge like the tides.

Because it came from the State Preceptor's Immortal Dynasty, these officials and wealthy merchants believed it deeply in their hearts.

Wealthy individuals immediately inquired about the highest denomination available, learning that a Nine Dragon Coin required a thousand ounces of silver for one and the bank did not accept external silver notes, they rushed to send their servants home to retrieve the silver.

Today, everyone who came to visit, at the very least, obtained a Single Dragon Coin, strung it with a red thread, and wore it on their person, to ensure safety.

For the people of Ming Country, everything from Yu Country was undoubtedly valuable and precious, while a few items from Ming Country also found a ready market among the people from Yu Country.

Ming Country, with its several thousand years of heritage and accumulation, produced intricate and refined goods often imbued with high artistic and technical elements.

Take, for example, the various embroideries, Kesi (cut silk) techniques, and double-sided embroidery, which do not exist on the Outer Heaven Divine Mountain.

The merfolk silk spit out by Merfolk, without a doubt, far exceeded the silks of Central Earth, and the merfolk silk they wove also surpassed the silk satins of Central Earth, but the various patterns embroidered upon them were nowhere near as good.

After looking at various embroidered items, a princess of the Merfolk Clan had an eye-opening experience: "Why didn't I think of embroidering on top... This approach to embroidery is indeed complex..."

With her ability to see, she could directly discern the path of each thread. However, after looking intensely for a while, she also felt a bit dizzy, so she bought one of each of the embroidered goods she had seen to take home and study.

Then there was tea. The Outer Heaven Divine Mountain did not have real tea trees; what was called tea consisted of various flowers and fruits brewed in water as a beverage.

Since the Outer Heaven Divine Mountain was bathed in sunlight and perpetually hot, it did not meet the conditions necessary for the growth of tea trees. Even if they were transplanted, the tea leaves produced would not taste good.

The princes who came from Yu Country were soon attracted by the aroma of tea leaves, and after seeing others operate a full set of tea utensils amidst swirling tea mists, fell in love with it at once. Each of them hurriedly bought a set and asked the shopkeepers about the methods of tea brewing.

In the end, most of what was sold by Yu Country were raw materials, yet heavenly and rare in Central Earth, whereas what was offered by Ming Country consisted of finely crafted artisanal products.

A great number of officials and wealthy merchants from Ming Country, after seeing the goods offered by Yu Country, lamented, "These people, though they come from the heavens, are like demons, from lands rich in natural resources and teeming with pearls and shells, yet they are akin to barbarians, spoiling all the good things they have."

"Indeed, I saw that Crystal Jade Wood, such fine wood, truly like crystal and precious jade. If used to build a palace, wouldn't it be comparable to the Dragon King's Crystal Palace?"

"No need for a palace, making a large bed, that would be the Dragon King's Crystal Bed!"

"Forget the Crystal Bed, that's too extravagant. Take some beads, make a string of Prayer Beads, better than the Seven Treasures, when I offer prayers to the Buddha in the future, the Buddha will surely feel my sincerity even more."
