"Young man, since you have such a good eye, I'll show you something else."
As he spoke, the bookstore owner mysteriously took out a box and was about to take something out of it.
"No need, I just want to buy two maps, nothing else."
Du Feng only asked for a standard map and a detailed map. He wanted to compare the various shops before deciding where to buy the other things. If he did not leave, he would be nagged to death by the bookstore owner. Therefore, he paid and quickly ran out of the bookstore.
"Sigh, young people nowadays really have no patience at all."
Seeing that Du Feng had run away, the old man shook his head with a very disappointed look. Then, he took out another map and made up for the one that he had just sold. When he sold it just now, he told Du Feng that it was the only one that he had personally hand-drawn after years of collecting and investigating. Obviously, it was all nonsense. He would probably still say the same thing when the next person came.
Du Feng was not stupid. He went to the next bookstore and first looked at what the standard version of the map he bought there looked like. After confirming that it was similar to the old man's standard version, he was a little relieved. That was because the detailed version did have more things than the standard version. Since the standard version in his shop was right, the detailed version should be better. If even the standard version was wrong, then the detailed version would probably be wrong.
"Sir, what do you need?"
The attitude of the shop assistant was not bad, but it could only be considered passable. It was not as enthusiastic as the shops in Sea City. Another reason was because of Du Feng's medium level. Although he was an official resident of the Sacred City, he was not a member of the primitive Protoss. This kind of person generally did not have a deep foundation in the Sacred City, nor did he come from a large family. Naturally, he would not be too rich.
"I'm just looking around. You go ahead."
At present, Du Feng had the Vast Expanse Sword Technique and the Jiumo Skill that he had exchanged from the ghost servant. There were no skills that he was in urgent need of. He mainly wanted to see what level the skills in the Sacred City were. For the time being, he did not lack any cultivation technique books, and with Xiao Hei's current condition, he did not need to practice any cultivation techniques. Therefore, he could buy a few books for Chen Tianlei.
Although Chen Tianlei was a Beastman, he was still half human, and he could use weapons. He was still in the Celestial Thearch Cultivation Realm, so he needed some Celestial Thearch Cultivation Method. It would be best if it could help him break through to the Divine Emperor Realm.
The waiter glanced at Du Feng and didn't want to talk to him anymore. Usually, customers who were reluctant to spend money would say that they would take a look first. In the end, they would look at it and not buy it, wasting their time.
"Here comes another poor guy. He can't afford to buy anything, so he's wandering around here."
"That's right. There are so many people in our shop. Why are they joining in the fun?"
Although the shop assistant next to Du Feng didn't say anything, the shop assistants at the other counters did. They had seen all kinds of customers and could tell who was rich and who wasn't.
They had to admit that they had really misjudged him this time. Although Du Feng wasn't a rich man, he still had some money. Why did he have money when he just entered the Holy City? The reason was simple. Because many people wanted to kill him in the Imperial Beast Forest. In the end, whether they were dead or alive, they all left their storage rings behind.
The wealth of dozens of people was concentrated in Du Feng's hands, so he was still relatively rich. If the shop assistants had a good attitude, they would also consider choosing a few cultivation method books and buying them for Chen Tianlei first. If there were really good cultivation method books for the Divine Emperor Realm, they could also consider buying one for themselves.
However, after hearing the shop assistants' discussion, he smiled and looked through the books one by one, refusing to buy them. Sure enough, after a while, some shop assistants couldn't stand it anymore.
"Sir, are you going to buy them or not? You've almost turned our books rotten."
When Du Feng walked to a certain bookshelf, the shop assistant couldn't stand it anymore and came up to him to urge him.
"The cultivation method books in your shop aren't that good. Why are they not as good as the ones in the Sage Gathering Library?"
The Sage Gathering Library that Du Feng mentioned was the old man's shabby bookstore. In fact, when he was in the shabby bookstore, he had also browsed through the same books. Many of the cultivation method books were the same as here, and they were also a little cheaper.
"What's wrong with you? How can they be the same? He copied them himself. Ours are the originals."
The shop assistant looked at Du Feng with disdain, thinking that this guy must be from the countryside. He doesn't even know this.
"Oh, what's the difference between the originals? Or is there something wrong with the cultivation method books in the Sage Gathering Library?"
Du Feng was really curious. Under normal circumstances, the cultivation method books and cultivation method jade slips produced by individuals were the same. To put it bluntly, weren't the books in your bookstore also produced later? Could it be that every one of them was the only copy? If it was the only copy, and someone else bought it, what would the next customer buy?
"The original version represents the grade and identity. People like you won't understand."
This shop assistant was really bold. He actually directly said that the customer's grade and identity were not good enough. If this was in Sea City, Du Feng would have found fault with him, because this was equivalent to scolding him.
"Yes, yes, yes. My grade is indeed not good enough. Let's buy from another shop."
Du Feng took out a crystal card with a denomination of one million, then shook his head and put it back, pretending to be very disappointed.
"Ah, sir, you misunderstand. I didn't mean that just now."
Seeing the color of the crystal card that Du Feng took out, the shop assistant immediately recognized that it was a card with a denomination of one million. People who could have a crystal card of this denomination would not be poor. If they took a large pile of God Stones and gathered a million, they would not have much money and took out a total of one million to show off. However, people who carried a million crystal card with them usually had many million. Only then would they dare to carry a million crystal card with them as pocket money.
"No, you didn't misunderstand. My grade is indeed not good enough."
Du Feng said as he walked out, shaking his head and sighing in disappointment. Even the other customers in the restaurant could empathize with his disappointed look.
"What's going on? The shop seems to have driven away a customer."
"Yes, I saw it too. It seems to be a human cultivator. I don't think he has much money."
The residents of the Primordial Celestial Race in the Sacred City were not surprised by this, because this place was unfair to human cultivators, and it was even more unfair to demon immortals.
"What are you talking about? What's wrong with a human cultivator? Are you looking down on us humans?"
"Open your eyes and look, that person just took out a million crystal card."
