"Who wouldn't agree? We originally thought that Da Kong Immortal City, being close to the Changqing Mountain Range and with many cultivators coming and going, wouldn't lack for business. But as it turns out, we had the bad luck to run into a great war..."
"Exactly! We worked hard for a year, thinking we could earn some Spirit Stones. But now, in this situation, even losing a little less is something."
Several shopkeepers nearby joined in the complaint.
This situation isn't unique; most shops are included in this, and it's not just Da Kong Immortal City — the whole of Kong Mountain State is almost like this.
And this actually goes against the normal pattern!
War doesn't make businesses decline; instead, it often makes them more prosperous, especially for strategic resources, whose prices are bound to soar.
But the shops in Kong Mountain State haven't reaped these profits at all.
