When he returned to the store, more than half of the customers had left. There were only a few people left. They were probably cultivators from other cities who urgently needed to buy spirit stones.
However, even if they left today, they would return tomorrow, so it didn't matter. Right now, he could only slowly accumulate spirit stones to increase his cultivation. Mo Tiankong had no other choice.
He was currently a rank nine Martial King. After this week's settlement, if there were no accidents, he would enter the Emperor realm. If the System didn't adjust the amount of spirit stones needed to reach the Emperor realm, it would still be a tenfold increase. This was quite exciting.
It was almost comparable to the remnant spirit stone vein Yu Xiuyuan had found. A normal small spirit stone mine would produce at least a million spirit stones to several million spirit stones. The spirit stone mine Yu Xiuyuan had found could produce at most a million spirit stones.
Bored to death, Mo Tiankong sat at the cashier's counter and looked outside. The billboard had attracted a lot of cultivators, but they didn't enter the store.
Mo Tiankong was a little regretful that he had put it out so early. They were all outside the store. If they didn't urgently need to buy, they would wait until tomorrow when the price was half off. He had made a mistake.
He was afraid that not many people would enter the store today.
However, in any case, the morning batch of cultivators had finished buying. According to his experience, there would be more cultivators in the morning.
Just as he was thinking, someone walked in. Mo Tiankong saw that it was Yu Xiuyuan.
Luckily, he didn't recognize him. He had directly gone down the mountain after mining. However, Mo Tiankong didn't know why he was here. Based on his speed, it would be a long time before he finished mining.
Otherwise, he was preparing to establish a sect.
"Store Manager Mo, I'm here to buy something." Yu Xiuyuan enthusiastically greeted Mo Tiankong as soon as he entered the store.
"Okay." Mo Tiankong replied. He watched as Mo Tiankong walked straight to the shelves.
Originally, he wanted to ask about the mining progress, but this guy walked quickly.
Also, didn't this guy have any curiosity? There were a lot of cultivators surrounding the billboard outside, but he just walked straight in.
Fine, Mo Tiankong could only tell him later. However, this guy probably didn't have the time. He would probably go back to mining after he finished buying.
Not long after, Yu Xiuyuan returned.
"Store Manager Mo, I want this." Yu Xiuyuan was holding a small teleportation formation as he spoke to Mo Tiankong.
"Eh, why are you buying a Teleportation Array?" Mo Tiankong couldn't think of a reason to buy a Teleportation Array.
................................................................
No, wait a moment. This train of thought … Has the sect been built yet? You're thinking too much. Nothing has been set in stone yet, and you're already thinking about it. What if a group of demonic beasts took a liking to that place in the canyon? Then it would be over.
"Cough, cough. Aren't you thinking too early? We haven't even built the buildings yet." After thinking about it, Mo Tiankong decided to give him a friendly reminder.
It wasn't easy for them to find a spirit stone mine. If they wanted to rebuild the sect, they'd have to be thrifty. Teleportation arrays weren't cheap either.
"I still think it's too late. If we had laid down the transmission array earlier and recruited some cultivators to build the palaces and houses, we would've been able to open the sect earlier." Yu Xiuyuan had his own thoughts.
However, this idea was not bad. After all, the location of the encampment was near the middle of the mountain range. Yu Xiuyuan alone would not be enough. Therefore, they still needed to recruit some martial artists to build the encampment. They did not need to have a high cultivation level. Martial Artists were just puppets that weighed a few hundred kilograms. They would not have a problem doing some manual labor.
They could just gather materials on the spot. However, the problem was whether these low-level martial artists could walk to the middle of the mountain range on their own. Therefore, a transmission array was still necessary.
"That makes sense. But as the master of a sect, isn't your cultivation a little too low?" When he had tricked Yu Xiuyuan earlier, he had only given him a little hope. In the end, he had really found a spirit stone mine. However, there were still some problems that they had to face.
Some of the existing sects had at least Martial Emperor Realm experts in charge. Yu Xiuyuan's cultivation was still a little low. Even if his combat strength was slightly higher with an Earth-Grade weapon, his cultivation was still in the early King Realm.
Moreover, the sect was built in the middle of the Antelope Mountain Range. If the sect master was not strong enough, the disciples would not feel safe. It would even be difficult to recruit disciples.
"Store Manager Mo, what should we do?" Yu Xiuyuan was dumbfounded. Previously, he had wholeheartedly wanted to restore the sect. In the end, he suddenly realized that he was not strong enough. He did not know what to do, so he could only ask Mo Tiankong.
Mo Tiankong was even more dumbfounded when he heard this. If you're weak, why are you asking me? How should I know? Buy pills and cultivate, but it would be very difficult to advance by a large level in a short period of time.
Moreover, the grocery store did not have snacks and so on. There was nothing that could increase one's strength in a short period of time.
If he had known this would happen, he would not have tricked this guy into buying the Treasure Hunting Compass. Now, there was a historical problem. Mo Tiankong did not know what to do.
"Well, let's increase our strength first." After thinking for a long time, he could not think of anything to say. He could only use the official explanation.
"Is there anything in the store that can increase one's strength quickly?" Yu Xiuyuan asked when he heard Mo Tiankong's answer.
There were only a few items in the grocery store. This guy had already seen all of them. Why was he still asking him?
"Currently there isn't anything." Mo Tiankong helplessly replied.
"Then when will there be something?" Yu Xiuyuan immediately asked. It seemed that there would be something in the future.
"Well, maybe within half a year." The store would be upgraded within half a year. As for the new items, Mo Tiankong said vaguely. "Well, maybe within half a year."
"But there is an item that can immediately increase your strength." Mo Tiankong thought of something and continued.
"What is it?" Yu Xiuyuan's eyes lit up.
"Eight Trigrams Bladesmanship," he said indifferently.
"Eight Trigrams Saber Technique? Is it an inheritance treasure?" Yu Xiuyuan thought for a moment. The inheritance treasure in the store seemed to be the inheritance treasure of the Eight Trigrams Saber Technique.
"Yes."
"But I can't afford it right now." After mining day and night for almost a week, he only had a few hundred thousand spirit stones. The inheritance treasure was two hundred thousand spirit stones. He couldn't afford it right now, but he could afford it after mining for a while. But it would be quite a long time.
"Haha, I have one opportunity to obtain an inheritance. It only costs sixty thousand spirit stones." Mo Tiankong once again started to bluff.
He just happened to remember that he still had one opportunity to use the teleportation array. It wasn't a good idea to just leave it there. Since they were talking about this topic, Mo Tiankong decided to sell it.
His spirit stone balance also didn't increase. It was still seventy thousand spirit stones. He didn't get it last week, so he didn't have any income. This week, he had just gotten the teleportation array, but it was going to be sold at half price soon. He definitely couldn't sell it in the next three days. It wasn't worth it. After all, he only had to sell one item a week to make a profit.
If he really didn't have enough spirit stones, he wanted to set up a stall and sell spatial rings and storage bags. These rich people didn't take back their spatial rings, so now he had a lot of them in his spatial bag.
Of course, Mo Tiankong wouldn't admit that he had directly taken the spirit stones and rings. Others would be too embarrassed to ask for them back. Normally, a spatial ring for a large transaction wouldn't matter.
He could take out so many spirit stones. As for the storage bag's limited space and cheap price, he didn't care.
"Really? Then I'll buy it." Hearing that he could buy it in one go, his face revealed a look of surprise.
"…" After Mo Tiankong received the spirit stones from Yu Xiuyuan, he also directly gave him the inheritance treasure.
There was only one opportunity left. He didn't need to use it in the shop. After three uses, it would directly shatter and couldn't be used again.
However, he felt that he had accidentally tricked this child again. Originally, the two of them were talking about cultivation, but Mo Tiankong had misled them into talking about combat strength. In the end, he had sold the last use of the inheritance orb and earned 60,000 spirit stones.
"As for the teleportation array, do you still want to buy it?" Mo Tiankong continued to ask.
"En, buy it. I'll raise my cultivation while building the sect." Yu Xiuyuan thought for a while, but still decided to buy it.
Cultivation wasn't something that could be rushed. It could only be raised slowly. However, he would still take out some spirit stones to buy pills and raise his cultivation. As for building the palace, it couldn't be built in a short period of time. It was necessary to start now. Cultivation was something that could be done on both sides of the sect.
"Uh, okay." This guy was also stubborn. Mo Tiankong could only let him be.
His ambition was also big. He wanted to advance both sides at the same time. However, if he insisted on buying it, Mo Tiankong wouldn't refuse.
"One hundred thousand spirit stones. Also, the grocery store will have a half-price sale starting tomorrow for three days." The last sentence was a reminder. Although there wasn't anything that was suitable for Yu Xiuyuan's cultivation, it was up to him to decide.
The grocery store didn't have a half-price sale every day. So whether it was for the sect or for sale, it was still worth it to buy something at half-price.
"Store Manager Mo, can I buy it tomorrow?" Yu Xiuyuan asked weakly. If he could buy it at half-price, he could save half of the spirit stones. It was better to buy it tomorrow.
"But the small teleportation array isn't part of the half-price sale." Mo Tiankong guessed that everyone would have this reaction. He wasn't surprised and continued to say.
"Ahem, okay. But which items are half-price?" Yu Xiuyuan also choked. He took out spirit stones to pay for the teleportation array and then asked.
"When you entered the store, you saw that there were warriors outside. There was a notice." Mo Tiankong said faintly as he put away the spirit stones.
He always felt that the eyes of the people in this world were bad. They couldn't see the small blackboard, and now they couldn't see the billboard at the door. His heart was tired. Did he have to say it one by one?
"Okay, then I'll take my leave first." After putting away the items, Yu Xiuyuan also prepared to take a look. When he entered the store, he saw it, but there were too many people around. He didn't join in the fun. After all, he came to buy things.
After Mo Tiankong watched Yu Xiuyuan walk out of the store, he also withdrew his gaze. There were warriors coming to pay.
Yu Xiuyuan had a purpose. After entering the store, he went to the shelves and took the items and came back to pay. At this time, the remaining warriors in the store also came to pay after shopping.
