Chapter 19 The Academy Sets Up Stalls to Sell Talismans

"See? It's so convenient to control the wind and rain. Do you think I could make a fortune selling these talismans at Horagaka Academy?" Shi Daohan raised an eyebrow at Kalman.

"It's much more convenient and simpler than casting magic!" Kalman couldn't help but exclaim.

"Right? After we finish eating, we'll find a crowded place to set up a stall and sell our wares," Shi Daohan said with a smile.

"If you really need money, I can help you; you don't need to do this."

Kalman looked at her intently. Although those talismans were just paper, they possessed the magical ability to summon wind and rain. They were clearly valuable items, and he was reluctant to sell such good things to others.

Shi Daohan simply shook her head slightly. She wasn't short of money. She had 100,000 spirit stones in her storage ring that could be exchanged for magic stones at a 1:1 ratio, and she also had two checks totaling 9,000 magic stones that she hadn't cashed yet. That was enough for her to squander for a while.

However, due to some experiences in her childhood, she will not let go of any opportunity to make money.

She started doing business before she was even ten years old, and her once-declining family regained its place in China under her management.

Shi Daohan's current business ventures are purely out of interest and hobby.

After leaving the cafeteria, the two of them went to the largest open-air plaza in Horagaka Academy and set up a stall in the shade of a towering tree.

This book was first published on 2020s.com, providing you with a reading experience free of errors and disordered chapters.

Shi Daohan took out sheets of talisman paper and began to sell them.

"Take a look! We have all kinds of supernatural powers and spells, including exorcising evil spirits, warding off disasters, helping couples find their soulmates, bringing in wealth, and controlling wind, thunder, water, fire, and earth. Don't miss it!"

Her hawking immediately attracted the attention of many people in the square.

"Hey, isn't that the exchange student from the ancient East? What's she doing now?"

"It looks like they're selling something."

"Interesting. Let's go take a look."

Students from all the academies gathered around, and a handsome young man was the first to speak: "Junior Sister Daohan, what are all these things you're selling?"

"Talismans, we have all sorts of abilities." Shi Daohan picked up a talisman and introduced it: "This one is a Fire Dragon Talisman, which can conjure a fire dragon to burn enemies."

After saying that, she took the initiative to demonstrate in front of all the students that the talisman in her hand spontaneously combusted without fire.

"roar!"

A dragon's roar resounded, and a fire dragon more than six meters long appeared out of thin air, tumbling and soaring in the air, with raging flames that made everyone present feel a heat.

"This is an Ice Control Rune, which can freeze and imprison enemies for ten seconds."

Shi Daohan took out another talisman, lit it in her hand, and a chilling aura spread out. A large tree three meters away from her was instantly frozen in ice, like an ice sculpture.

"Wow~ Cool!" The scene erupted in cheers and exclamations.

"And there's more! This is a talisman that can ward off evil spirits and disasters, and this is a talisman that can bring together couples..." Shi Daohan introduced the talismans in front of the stall one by one.

"There's nothing you can't imagine that I don't have."

"Cool! Give me a Fire Dragon Talisman!" The first senior student to speak said, his eyes shining.

"OK, twenty magic stones." Shi Daohan handed over a fire dragon talisman.

"What?!"

Upon hearing the price of twenty magic stones, all the students present were astonished.

It's not because the price is too high, but because it's too cheap!

No one expected that such magical talismans would be sold so cheaply.

Even Kalman, standing to the side, stared wide-eyed in disbelief, pulling Shi Daohan aside and whispering, "Are you crazy? This stuff is so good, you could sell it for a hundred magic stones each and it wouldn't be unreasonable! Why are you selling it so cheaply?"

"I can draw a hundred of these talismans in one night. The cost is not very high, and selling them at a lower price can quickly build a large customer base in a short period of time," Shi Daohan explained.

Kalman didn't understand business, but he felt that given Shi Daohan's way of doing things, it was unlikely that he would let himself suffer a loss, so he didn't say anything more.

"Here you go, twenty magic stones."

The senior student took out twenty magic stones and handed them to Shi Daohan, then couldn't wait to use them.

"Can I light it with a lighter?"

He didn't have the same ability as Shi Daohan to spontaneously combust without fire, and asked in this way.

Shi Daohan nodded: "That's fine."

After receiving a definite answer, he took out a lighter and lit the talisman in his hand.

With a "whoosh," a streak of fire flew from his hand, then transformed into a lifelike fire dragon in mid-air, its intense heat palpable.

"Interesting! Much simpler and more convenient than casting fire magic!" the senior exclaimed repeatedly, then pulled out a two-hundred-yuan bill and said, "Give me ten more!"

"Haha, senior is so generous!"

Shi Daohan smiled and gave a thumbs up, then quickly wrapped up the ten Fire Dragon Talismans and handed them over with both hands.

After witnessing the power of Shi Daohan's talismans, others also began scrambling to buy them.

"Give me ten Ice Control Talismans!"

"Do you have any wood-attribute magic talismans? Give me ten of them!"

"Do you have any earth-attribute magic talismans? Give me five to try them out!"

…………

"Line up one by one, and we'll make sure everyone can buy the talisman they want."

Shi Daohan was so busy that she had to have everyone line up and buy things one by one.

At the same time, Professor Ruolan of the Hishiji Academy happened to pass by the square after lunch and immediately noticed the long line of students.

"What are you doing?"

Professor Ruolan approached a student and asked him a question.

"To line up and buy talismans, what else can we do?" the student said without turning his head, craning his neck to look ahead, looking impatient.

"Talismans? What are those?"

Professor Ruolan was puzzled; this was the first time she had heard this term.

"A special type of paper from the ancient East, with characters that are neither quite pictures nor quite text. It's quite magical; you'll understand once you get your hands on it!"

Upon hearing the words "[Ancient East]", Professor Ruolan's beautiful eyes gleamed with excitement. In their Horagaka Academy, the only person associated with the words "[Ancient East]" was the exchange student Shi Daohan.

She looked ahead along the queue and saw a street stall. The person busy at the stall was none other than Shi Daohan.

"This exchange student really can't stay idle."

Professor Ruolan had a headache and quickly arrived at the stall.

"Don't cut in line, line up one by one."

Shi Daohan blurted out, but upon seeing that the visitor was Professor Ruolan, his hands, feet, and smile immediately froze.

"Haha, Professor Ruolan, what brings you here too?" Shi Daohan said with a slightly bewildered laugh.

Upon seeing Professor Ruolan's arrival, all the students immediately dispersed.

"What are you doing?" Professor Ruolan stared at the talismans on the stall.

They were just ordinary papers; apart from the incomprehensible runes on them, she couldn't see anything special or magical about them.

"Doing a small business to make a living shouldn't violate any of our college's rules, right?" Shi Daohan blinked innocently.

Professor Ruolan did not answer the question because she could not yet determine whether Shi Daohan had violated the rules of Horagaka Academy. She needed to first examine the special functions of these talismans before making a decision.

Shi Daohan took out an ice control talisman, lit it in his hand, and a large tree not far away was instantly frozen. However, it only lasted for ten seconds before melting into ice water on the ground.

"this……"

Professor Ruolan was shocked. Even she couldn't cast the freezing magic so directly and simply, yet Shi Daohan did it with just that inconspicuous talisman in her hand.

[Is it the power of those special runes mentioned above?]

As a professor at Bixi Ci Academy, Professor Ruolan quickly found the problem. She sensed a trace of water-attribute icy power on the runes of those ice-controlling talismans.

"You can't sell this kind of thing on campus," Professor Ruolan said softly.

"Why?" Shi Daohan asked, puzzled.

Professor Ruolan offered her explanation, saying, "There are no enemies in the academy, only classmates. These talismans of yours might cause classmates to harm each other. Can you take responsibility if something happens?"

Shi Daohan could not accept this argument and retorted, "But the magic taught at the academy is also offensive. Aren't you worried that the situation you described might happen?"

"But..." Professor Ruolan was speechless, unable to find a rebuttal.

"You can sell talismans, but you can't sell talismans that are lethal," Professor Ruolan conceded.

Shi Daohan didn't want to make the atmosphere too tense, so she made appropriate concessions.

Furthermore, Professor Ruolan's words were not without merit. If the talismans she sold really caused unrest within the academy, she would be held completely responsible.

Shi Daohan pointed to the talismans on the stall and said, "So, talismans like these, which ward off evil spirits, bring wealth, and help people find good matches, should be allowed to be sold normally, right?"

"Huh?" Professor Ruolan was taken aback. She didn't know that Shi Daohan sold so many kinds of talismans. She originally thought that as long as the sale of talismans with lethality was prohibited, it would be completely curbed. Unexpectedly, she was outmaneuvered.

But what could Professor Ruolan say after she had already said it?

[Anyway, as long as she's not lethal, there shouldn't be any trouble, so let's just let her be for now.]

Professor Ruolan thought to herself.

"I understand what you mean by warding off evil spirits and bringing in wealth, but what do you mean by this so-called 'marriage'?"

Professor Ruolan squatted down in front of the stall and asked with great curiosity and interest.

"It can help you find your true love and make them fall in love with you," Shi Daohan explained, picking up a marriage talisman.

"So amazing?" Professor Ruolan exclaimed in surprise. This ability sounded somewhat like Cupid's arrow from their Western legends.

"Then... I'll take one too."

Professor Ruolan blushed completely when she said those words.
