'Can I get over 8,500 red tickets today?'
***
Weisuo pulled off his bamboo hat, completely speechless.
The shopkeeper who ran out in a hurry was actually Zhu Xiaochun, the thick-browed man in brocade robes, one of the simple-minded duo.
"Big Brother Li, it's really you!"
Looking at the excited Zhu Xiaochun, Weisuo couldn't help but ask, "Why are you here? And you're even a clerk of Nine Cauldron Business?"
"Last time, when you said you were looking for us, we met outside Nine Cauldron Business." Zhu Xiao Chun looked like he was at a loss for words. "After that incident last time, we thought that we were in the limelight. Without Big Brother leading us, of course we didn't dare to leave the city. However, Big Brother didn't come looking for us, so we were a little short of Spirit Stones. Later on, Nine Cauldron Shop happened to be short of people, so I simply came here to work as a clerk. I thought that since Big Brother chose this place as a meeting point, it was very likely that I would meet you here. I didn't expect to actually see you today."
Facing this simple-minded duo, Weisuo didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "How many spirit stones can you make a day as a clerk? And you have to spend so much time and can't cultivate. With your cultivation, it's better to find a safer place outside and find some Class 1 or Class 2 demon beasts to fight."
"Hehe." Hearing Weisuo's words, Zhu Xiaochun chuckled. He looked around and saw that there was no one around. Then he sneakily said to Weisuo in a mosquito-like voice, "Of course, I can't even make enough spirit stones to cultivate by just being a clerk. So, Zhen Chongming and I have been planning for a long time. We're going to do something big …"
"Do something big?" Weisuo didn't know why, but he felt that this simple-minded duo definitely wouldn't come up with a good idea.
Sure enough, Zhu Xiaochun said softly with some pride, "Our plan is to first gain the trust of the shop owner. Then, they would work together from the inside and the outside, plunder the things in the shop and run away. This shopkeeper is often busy refining tools, and there aren't many people in this shop. Today, another shopkeeper was tricked by Zhen Chongming into going out to look at things. Right now, I've already rolled up all the spirit stones on the counter outside. If it wasn't for you, Big Brother, I would've definitely touched the storeroom and run away with some good things. "
Weisuo almost fainted when he heard that. He couldn't help but say to Zhu Xiaochun, "I want to call you big brother. Do you know that the storerooms in this kind of shop have unique restrictions? In particular, every store has to pay a lot of spiritual stones to the Tianyi Palace every month. Once this kind of restriction is triggered, all the Teleportation Formations of the Tianyi Palace will be closed. Even the city gate will be guarded until you are caught … "
"Ah?" Hearing this, Zhu Xiaochun broke out in a cold sweat. "Big brother, according to what you said, isn't it lucky that I didn't go into the warehouse?"
"Nonsense. Furthermore, these larger shops might have some powerful forces behind them or some powerful rogue cultivators. If you want to rob these shops, it's like you want to rob a sect. " Weisuo looked at Zhu Xiaochun, who wanted to rob a shop without even knowing this, and said speechlessly, "Why aren't you returning the spirit stones you rolled up?"
"Right away, right away." The frightened Zhu Xiao Chun immediately wiped off his cold sweat and scurried back to put the spirit stones back in their original place ….
In reality, the strength of the majority of shops wasn't as terrifying as Wei Suo had described. Perhaps escaping far away would be the same as killing an elite disciple of some sect. As long as one's luck wasn't bad and they weren't discovered, it wouldn't be a big deal. However, it wasn't worth it to provoke such trouble for a few spirit stones.
After a while, Weisuo saw Zhu Xiaochun come out and said, "Remember, in this Nine Cauldron Shop, don't say that my surname is Li. Say that my surname is Ji."
This time, Zhu Xiaochun wasn't stupid. He immediately nodded and said, "I know, Big Brother Ji."
"What an idiot. You actually treated an ordinary black stone as a black dazzling crystal. You made me come here for nothing!" Just as Wei Suo was about to say something, the dark-skinned clerk who had been there the entire time walked in while cursing.
When the shop assistant saw Weisuo, he was shocked and put on an extremely respectful expression, "Senior Ji!"
"I have met this person several times before. I want to talk to him outside." Weisuo expressionlessly said this to the shop assistant. He nodded at Zhu Xiaochun and walked out of the Nine Cauldron Shop. After Zhu Xiaochun quickly followed behind him, Weisuo asked, "Where is that Zhen Chongming guy?"
Zhu Xiaochun said, "He and I agreed to meet near the bulletin board over there."
Hearing this, Wei Suo immediately cursed inwardly, "Your sister!" If it were any other cultivator, even if they were working together from the inside and running away with some spirit stones, they would definitely choose a secluded place to meet … But he actually chose a place with the most people. When the time came to investigate, who knew how many people would see it. Then, they would immediately know that the brainless muscleman Zhen Chongming was in cahoots with him. Only these two simple-minded people would come up with such a plan. They really didn't take the usual route.
Weisuo didn't want to stay any longer and said to Zhu Xiaochun, "Go find him."
"Big Brother, thank you. If it wasn't for you, we would have died miserably. But why didn't you show yourself for so long? You caused us to run out of spirit stones. Otherwise, we wouldn't have come up with this plan. "A moment later, Zhen Chongming eagerly followed behind Zhu Xiaochun. Wei Suo nearly fainted when he heard the words that were spoken upon meeting him. Since when did it become his business that these two didn't have spirit stones?
"Do you really want to follow me to earn spirit stones?" Weisuo didn't want to talk nonsense with these two simple-minded people, so he asked directly …
"Big Brother, aren't you talking nonsense?" The two immediately nodded their heads like a rattle-drum.
"Then go and help me sell a few things." Weisuo glanced at the two and said, "I will give each of you 70 low-grade spirit stones."
"Just selling a few things?" Zhu Xiaochun and Zhen Chongming looked at each other, "Big Brother, what things?"
Weisuo didn't say much. He directly took out a black iron shield, a black tortoise shield, and two black storage pouches and handed them to Zhu Xiaochun. Then he took out a purple copper shield and two black storage pouches and gave them to Zhen Congming, "Just these things. Remember to sell them in a big shop like the Golden Jade Pavilion, but you two shouldn't go to the same place …"
"Big Brother, you actually have so many magic shields and storage pouches of Spiritual Level?" Zhu Xiaochun and Zhen Chongming were stunned at first, but they immediately felt relieved, "Big Brother is a cultivator from Zhou Tianjing. It's really different."
Wei Suo calmly took out 140 low-grade spirit stones and handed them to the two of them. Then, he looked at Zhu Xiao Chun and said, "Zhu Xiao Chun, I have some matters to attend to. However, I need to borrow that green poisonous magic weapon of yours. Can you lend it to me for a few days?"
"Big Brother, are you talking about my Green Flame Harpoon? Big Brother, you trust us so much. Of course, you can. " Zhu Xiaochun straightforwardly took out his green harpoon-like magic weapon and handed it to Weisuo. At the same time, he asked, "By the way, Big Brother, how do we give you the spirit stones after selling these things?" Zhu Xiaochun was the first to remember and asked …
"After you receive the spirit stones, go directly to my residence to find me. But remember not to tell anyone where I live. " Weisuo took the green harpoon-like magic weapon and looked at it. After putting it away, he pondered for a moment and told the two his heaven grade residence.
"Good! Big Brother, just wait for our good news. " Zhu Xiaochun and Zhen Chongming nodded and immediately went to help Weisuo sell the things.
After Weisuo saw the two leave, he turned around and walked into Nine Cauldron Shop.
Seeing Weisuo come in alone, the dark-skinned clerk was slightly stunned. Without waiting for him to say anything, Weisuo expressionlessly waved his hand and said, "He is already working for me. Take me to see your Boss Murong. I will explain this matter to him …"
The dark-skinned clerk naturally didn't dare to say anything. He immediately led Weisuo to Murong Chen's room in the backyard in an extremely respectful manner.
About half an hour later, the clerk saw Murong Chen personally send Weisuo out with a smile on his face. Murong Chen told him that he wanted to hire another clerk, and also gave him a list that once again shocked him. He asked him to prepare those things and give them to Weisuo.
In the list, there were 100 gold spirit pills, 200 monster cores of green-shelled insects, and several kinds of elixirs that were worth about 3000 low-grade spirit stones.
"Could it be that this person's real identity is actually an alchemist?"
But the more the clerk thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible. Otherwise, he wouldn't ask for so many monster cores and elixirs so often. But of course, he didn't dare to ask anything. He just gave the 90 gold spirit pills and 50 monster cores of green-shelled insects and some elixirs to Weisuo. Then he immediately arranged the parts that were not enough and released the acquisition news.
After receiving these things, Weisuo put on his bamboo hat and left Nine Cauldron Shop. After walking around the market in the northern part of the city and buying some things, Weisuo went straight to the southern part of the city and walked through the gate of the Golden Pavilion.
Half an hour later, the young man named Lin Feng respectfully sent Weisuo out of the Golden Pavilion.
Then Weisuo, who was wearing a green robe and a bamboo hat, returned to his own Heaven-level residence.
After entering his own Heaven-level residence, Weisuo didn't rush to enter the quiet room. He just sat cross-legged in the spiritual orchard outside and waited. Not long after, the sound of the golden bell rang.
Weisuo's figure moved and rushed out. After a while, he rushed back, followed by Zhu Xiaochun and Zhen Chongming, who were looking around curiously and enviously.
After stopping in the spiritual orchard, Weisuo said to the two of them, "If you really want to follow me to earn spirit stones, you can't disobey any of my orders. The range of your activities is limited to the area of my spiritual field, and you can't go beyond the range of my spiritual field. If I have something to do, I will come out and let you do it. No matter what, you can't enter my residence. Otherwise, you will trigger the restrictions I set inside, and you will be killed. Don't blame me. "
