"Yes …" The shop assistant thought carefully. "About five … five hundred kilograms of raw stones. Based on the ratio of one attribute gem per kilogram, it should be about five hundred attribute gems. It's just that the price of these attribute gems is not easy to estimate …"
"Five hundred yuan, okay." Hong Dali touched his chin. "Let's calculate it based on the nine Strength attribute gems. How much are those gems?"
"Three … thirty-two thousand …" The shop assistant wiped his cold sweat. "But Sir Aristocrat, we don't dare to calculate it like that …"
Nine attribute gems, it would be a miracle if they could cut out a hundred or so gems. Most of them were estimated to be around six or seven attribute gems. But now, they were all calculated based on nine attribute gems …
Even if their shop manager had ten guts, he would not dare to cheat an Honorary Aristocrat like this!
"Dali, you bought so many attribute gems!?" Jiang Qianxue was shocked. "Why did you buy so many low-attribute gems? Wouldn't it be better to just buy ten attribute gems? "
"To squander." Hong Dali looked at Ling Xiaoyi. "I don't care anymore. Sister Xiaoyi, I'll leave the rest to you. Hehe."
Ling Xiaoyi stepped forward, smiled and said, "Okay, Young Master."
She immediately went to pay.
Speaking of which, with so many attribute raw stones, the shop owner would never dare to sell them at the price of nine attribute stones. Finally, after a simple negotiation, they sold them at the price of eight attribute stones. There were a total of five hundred stones, and the total cost was eight million Galaxy Dollars.
Now that the armor, weapons, jewelry, and attribute gems were all bought, Hong Dali was very satisfied. He laughed and said, "Okay, let's follow the old rules. Let's go and buy a few shops!"
"Buy shops?" Jiang Qianxue curiously asked, "Dali, are you planning to do business here?" As she spoke, she sized up Hong Dali and carefully looked at his new color trench coat. Then, she nodded and said, "En, as a Double Honorary Aristocrat, you need to come into contact with business and martial arts. Let me see how you plan to do business first."
Yin Tianzong winked and said, "Qianxue, you will definitely be surprised. Hehehehe …"
"Of course." Jiang Qianxue angrily said, "A Double Honorary Aristocrat is naturally not simple. Do you think everyone is as ignorant as you?"
Yin Tianzong cried again. "Qianxue, why do you always look down on me …"
"Hehe." At this time, Hong Dali directly called out to Ling Xiaoyi. "Xiaoyi, call those shop owners over. I'll choose which one to buy."
"Yes, Young Master." Ling Xiaoyi smiled and nodded, then went to inform those shop owners.
Soon, they arrived at a small conference room that had been tidied up.
Participants: Hong Dali, Jiang Qianxue, Yin Tianzong
Assistant: Ling Xiaoyi.
Competitors: Shop owners on the 47th floor.
Outside the door: All the shop owners who came to watch the show.
Others: The nine lackeys, the attendants, the guards of the Galaxy Aristocrats, and the others lined up on both sides. The nine lackeys stood in a row against the wall, while the others stood neatly against the wall.
The main characters, the audience, and the commentators were all present, so the competition began.
First, a shop owner walked up to the stage and looked at the luxurious lineup below. He gulped and then took out a report that he had written at the last minute.
"Honorable nobles." The shop owner looked at the report in his hand and said in a very sad tone, "My shop's name is Phaeton Jewelry Shop. It has an area of 245 square meters. Currently, the annual expenses are 198,000 Galaxy Dollars. The cost of raw materials is 34,000 Galaxy Dollars. The employee's monthly salary is 12,000 Galaxy Dollars. Our net profit last year was only about 8,000 Galaxy Dollars … Sob sob sob … "
Hearing this, Jiang Qianxue secretly frowned. "Hong Dali actually wants to buy a shop like this?"
Yin Tianzong touched his chin. "This looks not bad. Hong Dali, what do you think?"
"Yin Tianzong!" Jiang Qianxue was so angry that her veins almost popped out. "Do you believe that I'll really beat you up!"
Yin Tianzong's face was full of tears. "I'm so scared —"
Tang Muxin and the rest tried their best to hold in their laughter. This Yin Tianzong was really too tragic …
At this time, Hong Dali listlessly commented, "Aye, this shop owner, the tone of your painful moan is wrong. Next."
"Pfft!" Jiang Qianxue instantly laughed out loud. This Hong Dali, the reason he came up with was too weird …
Hearing this, the shop owner's face instantly turned ashen and he walked out of the door in a daze.
Once he walked out, the crowd outside all asked, "Aye, this shop owner, how was it, how was it? What did that Sir Aristocrat say? "
"He said … he said …" The shop owner was about to cry. "He said that the tone of my painful moan was wrong …" Everyone was shocked.
"Aiyaya, this is really too pitiful. If that Sir Aristocrat buys your shop, it will be 250,000 Galaxy Dollars. If there are more goods, it will be 300,000 Galaxy Dollars. You lost some money these two days, but you basically earned it all back!" "That's right, that's right. What a pity!" "Aye, I wonder how pitiful it will be." "Don't say anymore, the next one has already gone in!"
At this time, the second shop owner walked in.
"Honorable Sir Aristocrat." The second shop owner cried bitterly once he entered. "My shop is called Mirror Jewelry Shop. The total investment is 230,000 Galaxy Dollars. I've already lost more than 30,000 Galaxy Dollars from the start. Sob sob sob, Sir Aristocrat, please buy my shop …"
Jiang Qianxue opened her mouth wide. This was worse than the first shop owner!
"Aye aye aye, this shop owner, please make your eyes more pitiful. Yes, yes, yes, this is the feeling!" Hong Dali slammed the table. "Next!"
Damn! He failed again!
The second shop owner walked out too …
The crowd outside asked again, "How was it this time?"
The shop owner: "Sir Aristocrat said that my eyes are not pitiful enough …"
Everyone sighed. "What a pity, what a pity!"
There were a few shop owners behind him. Hong Dali listlessly did not agree. Jiang Qianxue was getting more and more confused as she listened — were they planning to sell their shops, or were they here to compete on how pitiful they were? Why did they all talk as if they were going to go bankrupt soon?
Soon, a few shop owners left in disappointment. At this time, a shop owner dressed extremely sloppily walked in. Once he entered, he wailed loudly. "Sir Aristocrat, I'm already bankrupt … My shop, just name a price. I'll sell it as soon as I have the money …"
"Bankrupt!" When Hong Dali heard this, he instantly perked up. "How much did you lose?"
The shop owner wailed. "We lose as much as we invest … Usually, we don't even have a single customer …"
"It's you then!" Hong Dali laughed loudly. "It's your shop then. You've bought all the shops around you. Ask the other shop owners to prepare. Wahahahaha! Round it up to 300,000 each! "
"Thank you, Sir Aristocrat! Thank you, Sir Aristocrat! "When the shop owner heard that it was a success, his face was full of surprise. He laughed wildly and ran out.
Once he walked out, everyone surrounded him. "How was it, how was it?"
"It's a success! It's a success! "The shop owner cheered." Seven shops, round it up to 300,000 each! Hahahaha! I finally sold this shop, I finally sold it! Hahaha! "
Everyone sighed. "Sigh, why don't I have such good luck? I earned quite a lot this time. What a pity, what a pity! "
In the conference room.
Jiang Qianxue was completely petrified.
She felt that something was wrong today — could it be that she was still asleep?
As a noble Galaxy Aristocrat, Jiang Qianxue did not lack money. But the problem was, just because she did not lack money did not mean that she could throw it around casually — didn't you hear what the shop owner said? He would lose as much as he invested. Usually, he did not even have a single customer! What was the point of buying a shop like that?
"Dali." Jiang Qianxue carefully looked at Hong Dali's eyes, trying to see if there was anything wrong. "Are you mistaken? You can exchange for a shop that loses money at a cheaper price. But you rounded it up to 300,000 … Double Honorary Aristocrats have their advancement assessment too. Even if you don't care, it's not worth it to be laughed at, right? "
"It doesn't matter." Hong Dali grinned. "It's for the sake of squandering! Alright, we're almost done. Let's go back now. "
"You really bought this just to squander?" Jiang Qianxue rubbed her temples. "You really don't have any other motives?"
"Do I need a motive to squander?" Hong Dali drooled as he looked at the System menu in his mind. "Current squandering value: 7350000 Galaxy Dollars." En, en, it seemed that these shops were definitely for squandering. As for the equipment and gems, he had to wait and see which ones were used and which ones were not. Then, he could calculate how much he had squandered …
"Forget it." Jiang Qianxue angrily stood up. "Elder Mo Tianji has really found a 'good' successor!"
Saying so, she waved her hand. "Let's go!"
Hong Dali sniffled and grinned. "Miss Qianxue, I'll see you at the Tower of Trials later!"
"I can't be bothered with you." Jiang Qianxue said.
"Aye, Qianxue, wait for me!" Yin Tianzong looked at Hong Dali, then looked at Jiang Qianxue. He felt that it was a difficult choice today — in the end, he still chased after Jiang Qianxue. "My brother Dali is not that kind of person — why don't we go somewhere else?"
Jiang Qianxue: "Go and die!"
…
Shenluo City, West 68th District, inside a red-level Honorary Aristocrat's manor.
"Have you heard?" A red-level Honorary Aristocrat sat on the sofa and said in a deep voice, "Feiyun went to find trouble with Hong Dali and was killed on the spot. Three other people died with him. They were all good fighters."
"En, I heard." Another red-level Honorary Aristocrat nodded slowly and said, "This Hong Dali is really ruthless. It seems that we should try not to provoke him if there's nothing important. Oh right, I also heard from the people at Star Harbor that this Hong Dali seems to be a Double Honorary Aristocrat now? "
"His background is really strong." The first person let out a long sigh and said, "Not everyone can become a Double Honorary Aristocrat. But this is good too. It will put an end to our thoughts of challenging him in the Advancement assessment. "
"That's true." The second person nodded and said, "Alright, don't think so much. The Tower of Trials is about to open. Let's go and take a look first. According to the latest news, there are quite a lot of treasures inside. If we can get some, it will be very beneficial for improving our strength. "
"Of course. Let's go and take a look together later!"
