The old man was completely unaffected by Wilbur's question, instead flashing him a smile as he patted Wilbur on the shoulder. "I'd say you'd have made it in life if you were able to get really, really good at just one thing, young man. The mirrors our village makes are of much better quality than those from anywhere else. We'll never be worried about them not selling."
"Really? Are you sure you aren't pulling my leg, sir?"
"Why would I do that? You can walk around and take a look for yourself if you don't believe me."
"Alright. Thank you, sir."
Wilbur bid goodbye to the old man, then walked past a few muscular hunks polishing mirrors of their own. He realized that they were all using the same technique, and nothing really stood out among the crafters. Wilbur guessed that maybe the quality of the copper ore was just good enough for the mirrors polished from it to be of better quality as well.
Yet after purchasing a mirror for himself and searching through it with his spirit senses, Wilbur found that there was nothing special about the bronze itself. However, there seemed to be a faint energy aura hidden in the mirror that did not belong to the bronze, which piqued Wilbur's interest.
Ever since Wilbur first started cultivating, he had known that all famous places bore a special energy aura field. That was what nourished the place and drew in many tourists and visitors.
The mirror's exceptional quality was probably related to that faint energy aura inside of it. However, regular mortals would not know about it, thus Wilbur could not just ask anyone on the streets about it.
A middle-aged man polishing a mirror without a shirt on said, "What makes our mirrors different from the rest isn't actually the quality of the bronze ore, but… Come a little closer, and I'll tell you."
Wilbur stuck his ear in front of the man, who said, "It's the water from the well that we use to wash the mirrors with."
