"You want to meet Mister Baichuan?" The waiter shook his head and said, "This is very difficult. There are too many people who want to meet Mister Baichuan. Basically, everyone who comes to Wind Cloud City wants to meet him."
"Mister Baichuan is in the Wind Cloud Academy. Normally, he would not leave and would not come to Wind Cloud City."
"Outsiders have no way to enter the Wind Cloud Academy. Therefore, if you want to meet Mister Baichuan, unless you have heaven-defying luck and meet Mister Baichuan coincidentally in Wind Cloud City, there is definitely no chance. "
Qin Xiao had already expected that it would be very difficult to meet Mister Baichuan and Mister Yu directly. It was almost impossible.
Therefore, for this matter, he could only take a step back.
"Then is there any way to contact Mister Baichuan? Or Mister Yu is also fine. "Qin Xiao asked again.
Hearing Qin Xiao's question, Gong Li and Mo Nong looked at Qin Xiao with a strange expression. They thought to themselves, Could it be that Qin Xiao came to Wind Cloud City to find Mister Baichuan?
Moreover, such an action made it seem like Qin Xiao and Mister Baichuan knew each other. Could it be that they really knew each other?
If he could hug Mister Baichuan's thigh, that would be great.
The waiter looked at Qin Xiao strangely, but still said, "Well, I can't say that there is no way. My master should be able to contact Mister Baichuan."
"But … Haha, my master usually does not care about these small matters. Moreover, I can't even meet my master. Therefore, this matter is not easy to handle. "
Qin Xiao understood the meaning behind the waiter's words. Although he said that it was not easy to handle, there was still a way, and it could be done.
However, the waiter was not willing to say anything more. It seemed like he also felt that Qin Xiao was just an ordinary person. Therefore, there was no need to say anything more.
"Is there a need to pay a price?" Qin Xiao asked again.
The waiter smiled and said, "Sir, I won't hide it from you. What you said is reasonable."
"However, this price is not something that an ordinary person can imagine. Therefore, I advise Your Excellency to give up on this idea. "
"There are many people who want to contact Young Master Baichuan. Even if they pay a huge price, they might not get a response."
"Besides, my master wouldn't do such a thing easily."
What he meant was that Qin Xiao couldn't afford it.
Indeed, Qin Xiao was only a Second Step Celestial Venerable. How much power could a Second Step Celestial Venerable have?
How could it be so easy to contact Young Master Baichuan?
"No matter how big the price is, there should be a number, right?" Qin Xiao asked again, looking like she was still unwilling to give up.
The corners of the little brother's mouth curled up slightly. A mocking smile flashed across his face, but he quickly covered it up.
Little Second Brother said, "Sir, don't make things difficult for this little one. Only my master has this ability. I'm just a lowly servant. How could I dare to disturb my master? This matter is very difficult. "
"I'm just telling you that my master is very capable in Fengyun City. It doesn't mean that my master will definitely help others to do this. These are two different concepts."
"Therefore, Your Excellency, you should find someone else."
Qin Xiao couldn't help but frown. Since little Second Brother said so, it seemed like his so-called master might not have such ability. Perhaps he was just boasting.
It wouldn't be good if he continued to pester him. Therefore, Qin Xiao didn't ask any more questions.
If that was the case, he could only think of another way.
He could always think of a way. It was just a matter of which method was better. He had to quickly contact Baichuan, Fu Su, and Young Master Yu.
He had already waited for so long. This little bit of time didn't matter now.
The tea was almost finished. There weren't many things on the table to begin with. Unknowingly, it was cleared away.
Gong Li and Mo Nong were already a little impatient. Their goal was already confirmed. They would go to the Unusual Immortal Pavilion first. If it didn't work, then they would go to Great Master Qilu to take a look. They had to give it their all for these two opportunities.
They wanted to obtain an Immortal Fate.
"Brother Qin Xiao, why don't we leave first? We can think of another way. There will always be a chance, "Gong Li said.
Although he wasn't too sure why Qin Xiao wanted to find Young Master Baichuan, there should be a reason.
Qin Xiao nodded. That was all he could do for now.
Since they were already in Wind Cloud City, there was nothing to worry about. At most, it was a matter of time.
Actually, Qin Xiao wasn't afraid of paying any price. He could still afford it.
"Little Second Brother, how many Chaos Source Stones are there in total?" Gong Li stood up and asked little Second Brother.
Little Second Brother was in high spirits. The smile on his face deepened. After calculating for a while, he smiled and said to Gong Li, "Your Excellency, you have spent a total of 10,800 Chaos Source Stones. May I know who is paying?"
What?
Ten thousand eight hundred chaos source stones?
Are you sure you didn't say wrongly?
Hearing this frightening number, Qin Xiao and the other two felt as though they were struck by lightning. They were stunned on the spot.
This was especially so for Gong Li and Mo Nong. Their eyes were wide open. They were completely dumbfounded.
They had never seen so many Chaos Source Stones in their lives. Even if they added up all their assets, it wouldn't be enough. In fact, it was close.
Qin Xiao frowned deeply. A cold glint flashed across his eyes. Qin Xiao knew that he had entered a black shop this time.
However, even a black shop wouldn't ask for so much. This shop was indeed a little too much.
To ask for more than 10,000 Chaos Source Stones … This was even more ruthless than robbing.
"Little Second Brother, are you sure you didn't get it wrong?" Gong Li asked in anger.
As long as one wasn't a fool, they should be able to tell that they had entered a black shop and were being ripped off.
If it was just a little, everyone would still be able to accept it. However, this was really too much.
The little Second Brother smiled sinisterly and said, "I didn't do anything wrong. How could I possibly do such a thing?"
"It is indeed 10,800 Chaos Source Stones. Our teahouse has been doing business for so many years and we have always marked the prices clearly. We don't cheat anyone. How could there be a mistake?"
"Don't worry, Sirs. It won't be wrong. That's all."
"Sirs, which one of you would like to settle the bill?"
The little Second Brother, who had been respectful just a moment ago, was no longer as courteous as before. He was obviously much more spirited now.
Mo Nong couldn't take it anymore. He argued with the little Second Brother. "These few pots of tea, wine, and dishes are all very ordinary. How could they be worth so many Chaos Source Stones?"
"In an ordinary shop, it would at most cost a few dozen Chaos Source Stones. Why is the price a few hundred times higher in your teahouse? "
"Even if you guys are black, you don't have to be so crazy. Do you really think we are easy to bully? "
A few hundred times premium was indeed a little too much. It was really infuriating.
Upon hearing Mo Nong's words, the little Second Brother pulled a long face and became very rude.
The little Second Brother looked at Mo Nong sternly and said, "Sirs, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say such things."
"The consequences of slandering our teahouse will be very serious."
"You …"
This was clearly a black teahouse. How could he say that it was slandering? He was simply distorting the truth.
However, Mo Nong also knew that he couldn't say anything more. Otherwise, he might really get himself killed. Gong Li also secretly held Mo Nong back and told him not to say anything more.
After all, this was Wind Cloud City. Anyone who could open a teahouse in Wind Cloud City had to be a powerful force or person.
If he caused any trouble here, he definitely wouldn't have a good time.
It couldn't be helped. Who asked him to be so weak? In the face of power, he didn't dare to say anything. He could only silently endure such humiliation.
The little Second Brother continued, "Our teahouse has always marked the prices clearly. We don't cheat anyone. There's absolutely no problem of being black."
"Sirs, you have to know that this is Wind Cloud City. This is a place where powerhouses are as common as the clouds. It's also one of the three major cities of Hu Ling."
"The prices here naturally can't be compared to outside. It's definitely much higher than outside."
"Moreover, the tea, wine, and dishes that you three sirs used just now aren't ordinary. They were all meticulously prepared by our teahouse."
"However, the prices of these things are indeed not high. They only cost 800 Chaos Source Stones."
Only 800?
Although it was still 10 to 20 times more expensive than outside, there was no choice. People were just that black. Even if they wanted to rip you off, there was nothing you could do. You could only grit your teeth and accept it.
If it was really only 800 Chaos Source Stones, it was still barely acceptable.
After suffering a loss once, he would remember it in the future.
But why was the price 10,800 Chaos Source Stones?
What was up with the 10,000 Chaos Source Stones?
The little Second Brother continued to explain, "Tea and other things only cost 800 Chaos Source Stones. This isn't considered expensive, right? Of course, if you were to compare it to outside, it would definitely be much more expensive. However, this is Wind Cloud City. There's no comparison.
There's definitely a reason why it's expensive. "
"As for the other 10,000 Chaos Source Stones, that's your information fee."
"You guys gave me a total of 100 questions. In addition, I gave you guys two pieces of invaluable information."
"One question for information costs 60 Chaos Source Stones. Every important piece of information costs 2,000 Chaos Source Stones. Therefore, the total is 10,000 Chaos Source Stones."
"In addition to the tea and other things, that's a total of 10,800 Chaos Source Stones. Do the three sirs have any other questions?"
What?
One question for information costs 60 Chaos Source Stones?
Did they even have 100 questions for information?
Of the two pieces of information, each cost 2,000 Chaos Source Stones? Why didn't they just rob someone?
This matter was truly infuriating. Gong Li and Wei Nong were infuriated. However, they didn't dare to act rashly.
This was the tragedy of being weak. There was nothing they could do about it.
But what could they do now?
They couldn't fork out so many Chaos Source Stones.
If they could, then they could only grit their teeth and forget about it. What else could they do?
The weak would always be bullied no matter where they went. This was the cruel law of survival in this world.
Therefore, they tried their best to come to Wind Cloud City in search of opportunities to become stronger.
Only by becoming stronger would they be able to live a better life. Only then would they not be bullied by others. Only then would they be able to reduce the number of tragedies that would befall them.
Right now, the situation was truly unsolvable. There was nothing they could do about it.
Qin Xiao frowned coldly. "You were the one who forced us to recommend the tea. We didn't even ask for it. Neither did we know the price beforehand."
"Even if that's the case, 800 Chaos Source Stones is something we can grudgingly accept. We'll just take it as a loss."
"As for the information, your little Second Brother didn't mention anything about charging from the start. It was your little Second Brother who told us that we could understand the situation of Wind Cloud City here. That's why we came in."
