Chapter 156: Buy Buy Buy!
“How much are they?”
In response to the question, the middle-aged store manager gently took out one of the space rings by wrapping it around a piece of cloth and laying it out before Li Lang’s group.
“This one is a rank one space ring. It can hold up to two hundred and fifty shi. This one is twenty red crystals.”
Li Lang quickly did the mental math to convert the units of measurement to cubic meters. It came to be around thirty cubic meters. He nodded, as it was quite sizeable despite being the most basic rank. It was comparable to a twenty-foot shipping container.
The shopkeeper, Tong Wei, continued to present the next space ring.
“And this one is a rank two space ring. It can hold up to five hundred shi. It is fifty red crystals.”
The group took a moment to appraise the two rings from a distance. They looked similar enough, but one of them had half the capacity of the other. Of course, it came with a heftier price tag.
Everyone stayed silent so that Li Lang could make the decision. As the person with the money, it was his decision to make. It didn’t take long for Li Lang to choose, as both were well within his budget.
Rank one space rings were just enough for one Skyrunner and some miscellaneous supplies, so Li Lang thought to get a rank two ring right away. At the same time, rank one space rings were more cost-effective. Faced with this dilemma, he simply chose to go with the best of both worlds.
“I’ll take two rank ones and one rank two,” he declared.
Only he needed to stow their Skyrunner away, so he decided he would purchase the larger ring while he planned to entrust his two companions with a rank one space ring each. It could help them carry around their weapons and craft materials, allowing them to travel light.
“Of course. Would you like us to package them in gift boxes?”
