However, ten minutes had passed. The shopkeeper must have left?
Beep beep —
Wen Donglai's urgent message came, "Second Uncle, why aren't you here yet? She's still waiting in the outer hall."
Huh? Wen Qingyu was surprised. He waited until now?
Without further ado, he dared not offend Miao Chengtian. He immediately got up and went out.
He saw a beautiful woman in revealing clothes, who still retained her charm, sitting quietly in the room.
Wen Donglai peeked at her from time to time, his eyes full of passion.
Wen Qingyu was also slightly startled. He knew eight of the nine shopkeepers of Miao Chengtian, but he had never seen this woman before.
"Which shopkeeper of Miao Chengtian are you?" Wen Qingyu asked.
The beautiful woman tilted her head and smiled. Her smile was captivating and made Wen Qingyu restless.
He was secretly shocked. He suddenly thought of a shopkeeper whose name he had only heard of but never seen. He said in shock, "Could you be the shopkeeper of Miao Chengtian, the Enchantress Huan?"
Of the nine shopkeepers, only the shopkeeper he had never seen.
However, he heard that this woman had long reached the Emperor realm and was extremely proficient in illusions.
Their eyes met and he immediately realized the identity of this person.
That was why he was shocked. Why did this mysterious shopkeeper suddenly come to the small Hall of Thousand Treasures?
One must know that even Manager Jiu, who was ranked ninth, didn't want to come here.
"That's me." The enchantress smiled charmingly. Wen Qingyu was so frightened that he quickly looked away to avoid falling into her trap.
"Servants, serve some good spiritual tea."
"No need. I'm in a hurry, so I'll make it short." The enchantress said directly, "I heard that there was a handsome man peddling Heavenly Orchid Silver Bamboo in the market place and was moved by your offer. I wonder if he ended up in your hands."
So it was because of this. He did not expect it to alarm Miao Chengtian.
"Yes, the transaction is complete." Wen Qingyu was a little vigilant. He did not understand the intention of the enchantress.
The enchantress's eyes flashed, "Then how much did Master Wen pay?"
Wen Qingyu became even more vigilant. He thought for a while and said, "Forty thousand divine stones!"
Wen Donglai almost bit his tongue. She added ten thousand in one go?
The enchantress looked at Wen Donglai with a faint smile, then stared at Wen Qingyu, "Then Miao Chengtian will add ten thousand divine stones to buy it. How about it?"
What? Wen Donglai was so excited that his heart was thumping wildly.
Even though Wen Qingyu seemed to be sitting still, his whole body was stiff.
There was a difference of 20,000 God Stones between the buying and selling in an hour!
This deal was a huge profit!
Just now, he was still worried about whether this item could be sold, but in the end …
"Alright …" He almost agreed, but he quickly regained his composure.
This item had actually alarmed the Phantom Demon. The other party clearly knew that the Thousand Treasure Hall had only spent thirty thousand divine stones, yet they were still willing to buy it for fifty thousand divine stones. There must be an even greater profit to be gained!
"Does that mean Owner Wen has agreed?" There was a hint of joy in Phantom's eyes.
But Wen Qingyu said, "What I mean is, there are naturally many people who want good things. It's not just the Phantom Shopkeeper, it has already been reserved."
It would be strange if he did. It had only been an hour. Where could he find such a big buyer?
He was just raising the price!
The Enchantress was slightly displeased, but as a member of the Star Alliance Chamber of Commerce, it was even more inappropriate for her to use threats or force to break the rules.
"Alright then. If Owner Wen has made up his mind, you can come to me again." The Enchantress did not continue to raise the price and left immediately.
She understood that Wen Qingyu was now using the item to raise the price and was fearless. In the end, even eighty thousand divine stones might not be enough to satisfy his appetite.
It was better to give him the cold shoulder for a period of time. This piece of Heavenly Orchid Silver Bamboo was so precious that she did not believe that anyone would buy it in a short period of time.
As time passed, Wen Qingyu would become anxious and naturally take the initiative to sell it to her. Then, it would be much easier to bargain.
Wen Qingyu smiled as he sent the guest off. When he returned to the inner hall, he could not help but laugh heartily.
Wen Donglai was also extremely excited. "Congratulations, Second Uncle. You've made a huge deal! Just this deal alone is worth two years of our hard work! "
"Hahaha, it's not just two years. If we operate properly, it'll be more than what we've gained in five years! " Wen Qingyu was increasingly confident in his foresight. When he thought of the attitude of his clansmen when he went to the Dayu Empire, he became even more spirited. "I can't wait to go back after these five years are up. I'll let them broaden their horizons!"
Wen Donglai's face was also filled with anticipation. The shocked faces of his clansmen involuntarily appeared in his mind.
Just as the uncle and nephew were immersed in their lust, the sky gradually darkened.
In a certain inn, Su Yu was motionless, like a wooden stake that had lost its vitality and lacked a soul.
However, the Nine Jade Spiritual Pearl on his arm was glowing brilliantly.
"Grow faster, grow faster, grow faster." Beside the nursery, a graceful young lady dressed in colorful clothing was squatting in front of a small seedling of the Blood Crystal Bodhi. She propped up her snow-white chin with both hands and looked at the seedling without blinking. From time to time, she licked her lips. "When you grow up and bear fruit, I can eat you all, wahaha."
Suddenly, she turned her head and looked at Su Yu's soul, who had appeared behind her without warning. She pouted and snorted, then turned her head away and ignored him.
"Are you hungry?" Su Yu laughed.
"What do you think?" Xiaodie was full of resentment. "You won't let me eat this, and you won't let me eat that. Do you really want to starve me to death? Humph, you will suffer retribution for mistreating me! "
As she spoke, her eyes bulged, full of resentment.
Su Yu rolled his eyes. "I've only starved you for a day!"
"So what if it's a day? There are 24 hours in a day, and one hour is equivalent to the time it takes for four joss sticks to burn. One joss stick is equivalent to two cups of tea, and one cup of tea is equivalent to nine hundred breaths. How many breaths have you starved me for? "Her face was full of resentment, as if she had been starved by Su Yu for thousands of years.
Su Yu was speechless after being questioned by her. He rolled his eyes and revealed a thought-provoking look. "I starved you to help you empty your stomach, because I have specially prepared a feast for you."
"Really?" It was only now that Su Yu understood what it meant to turn hostile like flipping a book.
Xiaodie, who had looked like a thousand-year resentful spirit just a moment ago, was now beaming with joy. "Where is it? Where is it? Give it to me quickly!"
Su Yu stroked her head. "I have stored it somewhere. You need to go there and eat it yourself."
"Oh, there is also a piece of Heavenly Orchid Silver Bamboo there. You are very familiar with this thing, so you should be able to easily sense the location of the Heavenly Orchid Silver Bamboo, right?" Su Yu asked.
Xiaodie sniffled. "Do you even need to ask? I grew up eating the Heavenly Orchid Silver Bamboo. Let me out quickly, I want to eat my fill. "
Su Yu smiled. His soul returned to his body, and at the same time, he released Xiaodie.
She sniffed the air and immediately found the scent of the Heavenly Orchid Silver Bamboo. She ran out excitedly.
Looking at her receding figure, Su Yu smiled deeply and stroked the storage ring filled with divine stones.
Before long, Su Yu got up and left the inn. He went to another shop to buy the Nine Volumes of the Star Sector and the Journey to the Ten Thousand Domains.
Then, he returned to the cultivation abode and started reading immediately.
The night passed, and the sky was getting brighter.
Su Yu read with rapt attention, his eyes alternating between understanding and puzzlement.
Boom!
All of a sudden, the stone door, which was densely covered with defensive formations, was smashed by a monstrous force. A slender, colorful young lady stormed in angrily. "You lied to me!"
Su Yu looked up and saw Xiaodie, who looked aggrieved.
Frowning, Su Yu said, "Why? You didn't find it? Or were you stopped by that formation? "
"I found it, but that formation was nothing. I ate it right away!" Xiaodie looked indignant. "You said there was a delicious feast inside, but apart from the Heavenly Orchid Silver Bamboo, the rest were all low-grade goods. They were not delicious at all!"
"So you only ate the Heavenly Orchid Silver Bamboo?" Su Yu frowned. This was not what he had expected.
Xiaodie said, "Of course not! I was so hungry, I would have eaten it even if it was awful. "
Only then did his expression ease. "Oh? How much did you have left after eating? "
Blinking, Xiaodie pointed at her own nose as if she had suffered a great humiliation. "Do you think I would waste food as shameful and hateful as that? Humph, I even licked the dregs clean! "
Su Yu glanced at her plump tummy and grinned evilly. He guessed that the treasury must have been emptied by now.
The Million Treasure Hall's many years of accumulation in the Dayu Empire had gone down the drain overnight.
Of course, the 30,000 divine stones were saved by Su Yu from Xiaodie's poisonous mouth.
"Oh, no one found out, right?" Su Yu asked.
Xiaodie curled her lips. "They found out, and they were very angry."
Su Yu sized her up. "You weren't hurt?"
"Hurt me? Just them? Humph, it's fine if they didn't do anything, but who asked them to be so blind? Seeing that I was so wronged and unhappy, they actually hit me. It's intolerable! "Xiaodie clenched her small fists angrily.
Su Yu touched his nose. It would be intolerable if they didn't attack you after you ate them.
"Then what?" he asked.
Xiaodie's face was sullen. "Then, in a fit of anger, I even ate the walls of the treasury. Oh, and that house called Million Treasure Hall too. I didn't even leave a grain of sand for them!"
Uh —
He only wanted Xiaodie to eat the goods in the treasury.
This had absolutely nothing to do with him!
Thinking of this, Su Yu comforted her. "Those people didn't know how to appreciate favors. Really, how could they disturb your meal? Next time, don't be merciful. Eat the storage devices on them too. "
Xiaodie's beautiful eyes blinked. She felt like she had found a kindred spirit, and her mood improved a lot. "Haha, do I need you to tell me? Their clothes were all eaten! "
Su Yu was speechless.

The Million Treasure Hall.
To be exact, it was the ruins of the Million Treasure Hall.
Wen Qingyu and Wen Donglai, a pair of uncle and nephew, were huddled together under a sheet.
Their bodies were covered in blood, their noses bruised and their faces swollen. They sat on the ground in a daze.
Behind him was a large, empty, and clean piece of land.
The ground was as clean as a silver mirror, without even a grain of sand.
It was hard to imagine that a Million Treasure Hall that had existed for five years had been here before last night.
"Hey, for the sake of borrowing a sheet from your uncle and nephew, say something. What kind of tragedy has happened in the world? Why did everything disappear overnight? "An old woman's face was full of gossip.
