The onlookers were also speechless.
However, they also understood that this was the nature of this guy. He did whatever he wanted, and no one could do anything to him.
If he asked for 200 million Spirit Stones, you could reject it if you thought it was too expensive.
But if he didn't do it now, this guy might be unhappy the next day, and it would directly rise to four or five hundred million.
Nobody knew his temper. Even though the big shots were so angry that they almost vomited blood, they didn't dare to lose their temper in front of Xu Que.
Not to mention whether or not their properties would be confiscated, just the fact that they would be banned from any store if they offended him was enough to deter many people.
Besides, as long as they could change their Spiritual Roots and even have a chance to generate new Spiritual Roots, spending 200 million Spirit Stones was not expensive at all.
The big shots calmed down quickly. After thinking it through, they nodded and shouted, "General Zhuge, please don't go. 200 million Spirit Stones is also fine. Please apply for a membership for us."
"Yes, 200 million is absolutely not a problem."
"General Zhuge, you are right."
"Nice one."
Some of them flattered him shamelessly, which made the onlookers look at them with disdain.
However, they didn't care about it. Face was more precious than Spiritual Roots.
Of course, one or two of them wanted to cry but had no tears.
They had only brought about 100 million Spirit Stones with them. At this moment, they had sent people back to their clans to get more Spirit Stones. They even borrowed them from other big shots.
After all, the ice cream was so amazing. It could definitely improve one's Spiritual Root and even have a chance to generate new Spiritual Roots. It was definitely a miraculous item.
Most importantly, Xu Que had said that only 20 people could apply for a Supreme Membership. That meant only 20 people in the world could enjoy such a miraculous item. It was definitely worth spending hundreds of millions of Spirit Stones.
"Even 200 million?" Xu Que stopped and asked with a smile when he heard their words.
The big shots nodded. "Yes, of course!"
Xu Que smiled even more brightly. "What about 300 million?"
The big shots were shocked. "..."
300 million? Even if they wanted it, they wouldn't have brought so many.
"Alright, look at how useless you are. Isn't it just 300 million Spirit Stones? Forget it, forget it. You all know me. I always keep my word. If I say 200 million, then it is 200 million. I will not increase the price! "Xu Que said with a face full of disdain.
They almost vomited blood when they heard that.
Big Brother, do you think you can keep your word?
It was just 100 million just now, and now it became 200 million in the blink of an eye. You still have the cheek to say that you are a man of your word? Never raise the price?
Although they were cursing in their hearts, they didn't dare to say it out loud. They smiled and said, "Yes, General Zhuge is a man of his word."
"General Zhuge is the only person I admire the most in my life."
"General Zhuge, you are indeed a young hero. Well done!"
…
Xu Que was amused. These people were really shameless. No wonder they were businessmen!
"Alright, alright, let's get a card!"
In the end, Xu Que opened the door and let them in.
Although the old man and the young girl had already enjoyed the effect of the ice cream, they still continued to eat it. The ice cream was so delicious.
When they came in, their eyes were fixed on the ice cream on the table. Their eyes were full of desire, but they didn't dare to grab it.
After that, they paid 200 million Spirit Stones each and received a Supreme Membership Card and a serving of Haagen-Dazs Ice Cream Hotpot of the Exploding Heavens Faction.
However, at this time, they were quite depressed.
Because they only received one piece of ice cream, which was only enough for one person.
It was several times less than the one for the old man and the young girl.
However, they didn't dare to protest. After all, Xu Que had said that the ice cream for the old man and the young girl was called Family Bucket of Ice Cream Hotpot.
Since it was a family bucket, there must be a lot of ice cream.
However, they still felt very sad. The Supreme Membership Card they had bought with 200 million Spirit Stones was not as good as the one they had won from the lottery.
Why is there such a big gap between members?
"General Zhuge, can we buy the ice cream by ourselves? What's the price? "Someone wanted to buy more ice cream for his clansmen.
Xu Que raised his eyebrows and refused directly, "It's not on sale yet. When all 20 members are registered, it will be on sale in limited quantities."
Obviously, this guy had perfected the method of 'hunger marketing' and had reached the peak of perfection!
Seeing his firm attitude, the big shots had no choice but to leave with regret.
…
That night, the whole Imperial City was in an uproar.
The news about the old man, who had been the Prime Minister of two dynasties, and his granddaughter had spread throughout the city.
The Haagen-Dazs Ice Cream of the Exploding Heavens Faction could really upgrade one's Spiritual Root to a higher level. One's talent would skyrocket instantly, and it was even possible for one's Spiritual Root to be born.
For such a miraculous item, one only needed to register for a Supreme Membership Card worth 200 million Spirit Stones to get one free of charge.
That night, countless people in the Imperial City couldn't sleep.
All the big families and sects mobilized all their resources to raise 200 million Spirit Stones. Some smart people, worried that Xu Que would raise the price again, brought 300 million Spirit Stones with them.
They didn't sleep at all. They went to Xu Que's store and lined up.
However, when they arrived at the store, their faces darkened.
According to Xu Que's sign, there were only 20 members, and it was first come, first served. However, there were already more than 30 people in the line outside the store, which was far beyond their imagination.
They had no choice but to wait in the line. They hoped that Xu Que would change his mind and increase the number of Supreme Membership Cards after dawn.
After all, they believed that Xu Que had no reason not to earn so many Spirit Stones.
However, at this moment, Xu Que had closed his store early. He was strolling among the shops on the street with a large number of Spirit Stones to continue his plan of purchasing real estate.
…
The next morning...
A spectacle appeared in the center of the Imperial City's marketplace. It was completely different from the sea of people that it used to be. Now, it was completely empty.
This had never happened in the past hundreds and thousands of years.
In the Tian Liu Chamber of Commerce, several big shots gathered for a meeting again.
"What a surprise! We have underestimated that guy!"
"He can even upgrade the Spiritual Root and create new Spiritual Roots."
"Anyway, he will have no problem with the 2 billion Spirit Stones."
"Right, I think the most important thing for us now is to figure out how to get the Supreme Membership Card!" an old man said seriously.
The other big shots were surprised. "Eh? Didn't you send someone to buy it? "
The old man was also surprised. "No, did you send someone to buy it?"
"Of course, I went to line up last night!"
"Me too."
"Me too!"
"I want to say that me too!" Many of the big shots responded.
The old man widened his eyes. "Damn! Why didn't you remind me? "
After saying that, he ran out of the store.
The other big shots looked at each other and shook their heads with wry smiles.
Then, the atmosphere became serious again.
"Actually, the purpose of this meeting today is mainly to deal with that street!"
"Right. That street used to be located in a remote area. However, with the presence of Zhuge Liang's shops, the prices of the shops on the street have increased. We can consider buying it in large quantities!"
"I agree!"
"I agree too!"
"We have to do it quickly. Maybe someone else has already bought it!"
"OK, let's send someone to buy it!"
