Jun Changxiao's arrival attracted the attention of many martial artists in the residence.
Some praised him for being young and promising, while others thought that he was handsome.
Of course.
As a normal fantasy novel, there would definitely be martial artists who disdained the protagonist.
Needless to say, there really were!
And there were quite a few of them, at least dozens!
Most of these people came from high-ranking counties. They were either clan leaders or higher-ups of the factions. They looked at Jun Changxiao with contempt.
There was no denying it.
He had the strength to defeat the Patriarch of the Sacred Spring Sect.
But strength alone would never change his status as a low-level sect leader.
In the eyes of martial artists from high-ranking counties, the ninth-class Azure Sun County was like a countryside.
Those who walked out of it, whether it was the sect leader or the city lord, were all countryside people.
It was very realistic and very realistic.
Since ancient times, the people in the city had a natural sense of superiority.
Even if they didn't look down on the countryside people on the surface, they still differentiated in their hearts.
Jun Changxiao could see the contempt in the eyes of some martial artists. They didn't take him seriously at all.
You look down on me.
I also treat you like air.
"Sect Leader Jun."
Ma Yunteng said in a low voice, "I heard that you bought a business in Azure Sun County?"
"Yes."
"What business?"
"Beast material store."
"…"
Ma Yunteng was stunned.
He had recommended elixir, weapon, and spirit stone stores. Why did he open a feed store!?
"The Sect Leader of Azure Sun County's Haoqi Sect, Qin Haoran, is here to congratulate you!"
At this moment, the servant shouted again.
"Qin Haoran?" Jun Changxiao murmured, "This guy is here too."
Not long after.
Qin Haoran strode in with a smile on his face.
When he saw the dazzling Jun Changxiao standing in front of him, the smile on his face froze.
Obviously, he was as surprised as Sect Leader Jun.
"Yo yo."
After a while, Qin Haoran cupped his hands with a fake smile and said, "Isn't this Sect Leader Jun who sells feed?"
He had long known about Jun Changxiao opening a beast material store and had even mocked him in front of the big shots of the alliance.
"Sell feed?"
Someone asked in confusion, "Sect Leader Qin, what do you mean?"
Qin Haoran reported the matter clearly.
When everyone heard that Iron Bone Clan's business was actually a beast material shop, their expressions instantly became interesting.
In any case, they were a seventh-rate sect. Of all the businesses they could do, they just had to sell feed!
This was too embarrassing!
The high level martial artist, who had originally looked down on Jun Changxiao, had an even more disdainful expression on his face. He even thought to himself, "What a vulgar country bumpkin."
"Sect Master Jun."
Qin Haoran smiled and said, "I've been busy with work recently, so I haven't been able to congratulate you on the opening of your sect's feed store. Please forgive me."
Jun Changxiao could tell that this fellow was mocking him on purpose, so he said indifferently, "It's alright, I'll send some food to Alliance Chief Qin tomorrow."
"I'm sorry."
Qin Haoran said, "My sect has fodder for livestock."
Jun Changxiao said indifferently, "The fodder I sent over is for Alliance Chief Qin to eat, not for the animals to eat."
These words made Qin Haoran's face turn ashen.
"No, no."
Jun Changxiao said, "Now that you put it that way, it sounds like Alliance Master Qin is even worse than an animal."
"…"
The corner of Xie Guangkun's mouth twitched slightly.
Sect Master Jun's ability to scold people was improving, just like his cultivation!
Qin Haoran was so angry that his eyes flickered with anger, but when he remembered that this person had always been sharp-tongued, he didn't say anything else and walked straight to the inner courtyard.
To be honest.
He had asked for it.
If he hadn't talked about the feed store and pretended that he didn't exist, Sect Master Jun might not have scolded him.
Some people were born to be annoying. If they didn't get scolded, they would feel uncomfortable all over.
Qin Haoran was obviously such a person.
Although he was scolded and felt very sullen, he had achieved his goal.
When the various forces learned that Jun Changxiao had opened a feed store, they all looked at him with disdain.
It was clearly a sect with a very bright future, but it actually sold feed for livestock. This was too unorthodox and unclean.
In the Falling Star Continent, people were divided into different classes, and so were businesses.
Selling feed was definitely the lowest class. Usually, only ordinary people would do it.
Jun Changxiao ignored the crowd and followed Elder Ma to the inner courtyard.
…
The inner courtyard of the Shangguan Residence was already decorated with lanterns and streamers. At the same time, there were many square tables arranged. The birthday banquet should be held here.
Not long after.
All the influential figures of the various forces came to the inner courtyard.
They gathered together, and there were at least four to five hundred people. The sound of conversation was endless.
Occasionally, they would look at Jun Changxiao, but they didn't forget to look at him with disdain.
There were even cultivators from high-ranking counties who deliberately avoided him because he was a feed store.
As a result, only Ma Yunteng, Xie Guangkun, and the other City Lords of the Azure Sun County stood beside him.
"Sigh."
Jun Changxiao shook his head and said, "Is it so embarrassing for me to open a beast material store?"
Ma Yunteng said, "Selling feed is a kind of unorthodox business in their eyes."
Jun Changxiao touched his nose and said, "As long as a business can make money, how can it be divided into unorthodox and unorthodox?"
"That's right."
Ma Yunteng said, "As long as there is money to be made, even selling salted vegetables is not a problem."
"But …"
He paused and whispered, "Is there any profit to be made from the beast material store opened by Sect Leader Jun?"
"It's okay."
Jun Changxiao said, "I sold it for 2.5 million taels yesterday."
"So much?"
Ma Yunteng was startled and said, "Sect Leader Jun, is there a 20% profit?"
In his opinion, selling feed must be a small profit but quick turnover. A 20% profit was already good enough.
"Uh."
Jun Changxiao hesitated for a moment and said, "There should be."
He didn't tell Ma Yunteng that the cost of the feed elixir was 20 taels, but he sold it for 500 taels because Ma Yunteng wouldn't believe him.
"Hahaha!"
At this moment, a white-haired old man dressed in a red robe walked over as if he was flying.
This person was hale and hearty, and there was a strong aura around him. It was impossible to tell that he was an old man who was nearly 300 years old.
Shangguan Hong.
The current head of the Shangguan family and the former instructor of the Heavenly Mandate Academy.
A powerful cultivator smiled and said, "The head of the Shangguan family is getting younger and younger."
"Hahaha!"
Shangguan Hong stood in front of the birthday banquet and said, "Thank you, everyone, for traveling thousands of miles to celebrate the birthday of an old man who is almost half in the grave."
As he spoke, he waved his hand and said, "Please take a seat."
Ma Yunteng and Xie Guangkun, who had the experience of celebrating a birthday, brought Jun Changxiao to sit at a rather inconspicuous square table.
A few city lords of Qingyang County also sat down.
After that, there was no one else.
Many cultivators of high-ranking counties would never sit with a feed seller because it was too demeaning.
Everyone sat down and began to take the initiative to say congratulatory words. Shangguan Hong was all smiles.
After some conversation, he said loudly, "I heard that the head of the Iron Bone Clan also came to celebrate the birthday. I wonder if Elder Ma can introduce him?"
"Uh?"
Ma Yunteng was a little confused.
