Kuang Tie and the rest had just reached the shelf when another group of people entered the store. There were quite a few warriors who liked to come at night, such as Yan Xiu and the rest.
Mo Tiankong thought for a moment. The first time the Third Prince came was at night. Now, the store was really open, unlike the past when no one came at night.
"Store Manager Mo, is there a new item in the store?" Yan Xiu asked.
The group of people didn't change. Behind them was still Elder Yun, a Venerable Realm expert. However, he didn't say anything when he came to the shop this time. Mo Tiankong took a glance and retracted his gaze without saying anything.
After all, they were here to buy things. He couldn't possibly rub salt on their wounds. Furthermore, Yan Xiu could be considered the Aquamarine Empire's biggest customer.
Yan Xiu naturally knew about the new item in the store. He also knew the exact time today. However, it didn't mean that he would be free all the time. Yan Xiu and the rest also needed to cultivate. In addition to other things, it was normal for them to come at this time.
However, Mo Tiankong was also very tired of being asked such a question.
"Yes, it's on the fourth shelf over there." Mo Tiankong pointed at the shelf surrounded by mercenaries and said.
Hearing this, Yan Xiu clasped his hands together and led the rest over there.
There were only these two groups of people in the store. They were people who came at irregular times and had a high probability of coming at night.
Time passed slowly. After Yan Xiu came, no other warriors came over.
However, many mercenaries walked over to the second shelf after looking at the new item. They picked up their beer and queued up.
Mo Tiankong's face darkened. Although he could roughly guess what was going on, as time passed, the group of mercenaries went straight to the second shelf and picked up a bottle of beer after looking at the new items on the shelves.
The Thousand Island Lake beer was more practical and won the hearts of the mercenaries.
Actually, the main reason was that they had no use for it. Most of the mercenaries were at the Martial General level, with a few at the Wuzong level. They did not see any Martial King level mercenaries today, and Li Qing was not around either. Not to mention in the short term, they would not be able to use it for a long time.
The most important thing was that they could not afford it. They came to buy beer at the Thousand-island Lake just because they had some Spiritual Stones. It could be imagined that they did not have many Spiritual Stones in savings.
However, this kind of life was really carefree. Moreover, there weren't many mercenaries who had descendants. Monkey wasn't young anymore, and it seemed like he didn't have any concept of marriage.
Kuang Tie, on the other hand, spent a lot of time looking at the shelves carefully. Just when Mo Tiankong thought that Kuang Tie would buy some, he directly went to the second shelf and picked up a bottle of beer.
"Are the new items not good?" Mo Tiankong asked Kuang Tie.
Seeing these mercenaries coming over with the Thousand Island Lake beer without blinking, Mo Tiankong could not help but have an illusion that the new items on the shelves were not good.
"Uh, no, it's just that we don't need it now, and we can't afford it," Kuang Tie was stunned for a moment and then said.
Just as Mo Tiankong thought, mercenary groups really did not need these items now. There were not many Martial King level warriors, let alone peak Rank Nine warriors. Therefore, it was useless to be greedy.
Even if they bought it, no one could use it. Moreover, mercenary groups were not the same as the army. There were not so many rules and restrictions. They were relatively more free, and there was more mobility. It was more normal to join and quit, and there was no such thing as not being able to quit.
However, in the army, you could join if you wanted to, and quit if you wanted to. If you wanted to, you could break your leg. There was also the Sect. If you tried to quit after learning the Sect's martial arts, it was tantamount to betraying the Sect.
Therefore, Badan Brocade Martial Arts were not really needed. It was not cheap, and Kuang Tie came today only to take a look. He did not plan to buy it, so he did not bring any spirit stones.
He did not know how many spirit stones to bring, so he came to take a look first. However, even Badan Brocade Martial Arts was priced at five hundred thousand spirit stones.
Kuang Tie thought that it was hard to say if his father had so much savings. The spirit stone mine had just been excavated, and the teleportation array had just been set up a few days ago. Perhaps he really didn't have so many spirit stones.
After Kuang Tie paid, he did not leave and stood to the side to wait. Mo Tiankong also continued to collect. There were still more than half of the mercenaries in line. Yes, they were still holding the Thousand Island Lake beer in one hand.
"Store Manager Mo, come again next time," Kuang Tie and the others said after the last mercenary paid.
"Okay," Mo Tiankong replied.
After the mercenaries left, Yan Xiu and the others also came forward with the new items in their hands.
"Store Manager Mo, one of the new items on the shelf. The total is one million and five hundred thousand spirit stones," Yan Xiu said as he took out an interspatial ring and placed it on the counter.
"That's right," Mo Tiankong said after putting away the interspatial ring.
Yan Xiu could be considered to be a representative of the Imperial Family. Every time he came, he would buy a lot. However, this time there were only three items.
Mo Tiankong guessed that it was time to test the effects of the new items. Although it was mentioned in the introduction, the actual effects still needed to be tested.
For example, for the Martial Technique Pill, it was hard to judge the degree of improvement of the martial technique. If it was not as fast as the cultivation speed of some genius martial artists, then it would be less important.
As for the Badan Brocade Martial Arts, it was enough to just buy one. After all, the Imperial Family definitely had a technique of this level. Yan Xiu himself also cultivated an Earth Level Upper Level technique.
However, a technique of this level was still worth collecting. It was not a bad idea to expand the Imperial Family's Martial Arts Pavilion. Moreover, the price was not considered expensive.
As for the Five Element Marbles, they cost one million spirit stones each. Even if he really wanted to buy a lot, Yan Xiu did not bring so many spirit stones. Ten of them would be ten million spirit stones.
"Store Manager Mo, I'll take my leave first," Yan Xiu said after the transaction. It was getting late.
"Take care," Mo Tiankong replied.
After watching Yan Xiu leave, he looked outside. At this time, there shouldn't be any more martial artists coming.
Mo Tiankong thought of a problem. How many peak Martial King level martial artists were there in the entire Aquamarine Empire? A hundred thousand martial artists, a million martial artists, even ten million martial artists, or more than a hundred million martial artists.
As the most powerful force in the Hailan Empire, the royal family should have a lot of warriors at the peak of the Martial King Realm. If all of them were to be allocated, Mo Tiankong would not be able to calculate the number of Spirit Stones.
If so many Martial Emperor level martial artists were to appear, the status quo in the Eastern Xuan Domain would probably be broken. After all, Martial Emperor level martial artists were considered high-end forces in the Imperial Family.
However, the Imperial Family would definitely go bankrupt. The Imperial Family's expenditure was not something a family could compare with. Just the military expenditure alone was a huge number, and there were also miscellaneous expenses.
In the end, Mo Tiankong came to a conclusion. This was impossible. They would definitely be allocated some equipment, but most of it would have to be purchased by the martial artists themselves.
At around ten o 'clock, there were no martial artists coming over. Mo Tiankong also closed the store.
After returning to the backyard, he was just about to prepare a meal when the System's notification sounded.
After a day, the main mission had finally arrived.
Mo Tiankong opened the mission panel and looked at it.
"Ding! Main Mission: The store's reputation in the Eastern Xuan Domain has reached 50%. Time limit: one year. Reward for completing the mission: one random draw. Failure to complete the mission: one's cultivation will drop by one rank."
"Note: The store's next upgrade requires the completion of the main mission, and the store's experience is sufficient to upgrade. Store upgraded."
The above was the content of the main mission. Mo Tiankong was a little mentally prepared for the new main mission. It basically did not exceed Mo Tiankong's expectations.
Unexpectedly, it increased the difficulty of the other missions, but the facts showed that it did not.
Mo Tiankong felt that the store's experience was a little insignificant. Every time there was a note at the end, whether or not the store could be upgraded depended on the completion of the main mission.
Obviously, not having a purchase limit increased the difficulty of obtaining the store's experience. However, with the increase of the Aquamarine Empire's reputation, it was no different from not having a purchase limit. In fact, it was faster. After all, the number of people buying now was large.
Previously, it was only in Sentry Town. Now, it had changed to the entire empire. There were 34 cities and hundreds of towns. It was incomparable.
However, it was still completed within a time limit. It was half a year longer than the previous main mission. One year. In the ten countries of the Eastern Xuan Domain, only the Aquamarine Empire's reputation had reached 61%. Mo Tiankong did not need to look at the panel to know that the reputation in the Eastern Xuan Domain was now at 6%.
The difficulty was much greater than the previous main mission, but the time limit did not increase by much. This was a little sad.
After thinking about it, he could understand some of the System's meaning. Now that the population base had increased, the speed of spread was faster. One person spread to ten, and ten spread to a hundred. This was different. With half of the empire's warriors spreading the news, it was still very fast.
Of course, in reality, there were not so many people. The few cities near the border might spread the news or some trading companies. It was still very difficult, especially if the empire might block the news. Things like the five element marbles could also be classified as strategic materials.
The difficulty was not small. The most important thing was that Mo Tiankong looked at the punishment for failing the mission. Although it looked the same as before, only dropping one level of cultivation, Mo Tiankong's cultivation had been constantly increasing.
When Mo Tiankong was at the Martial Ancestor Realm, he didn't feel much about dropping one level. But now that he was at the Martial Emperor Realm, dropping one level after another … Mo Tiankong was still very distressed. This wasn't a drop of cultivation, but a drop of Spirit Stones.
In the past, he did not think that dropping one level was anything. Now, he felt that the System was waiting for him. If he could not complete the mission, it would be a little sad.
However, as long as he completed the mission, there would be no punishment. Although the difficulty was high, Mo Tiankong felt that it was not a problem. The previous main mission was completed four months in advance.
Closing the mission panel, he continued to cook. Mo Tiankong was like this. The more the road of cooking was not peaceful, the more he wanted to complete it.
