When Mo Tiankong walked to the stone table, Auspicious, who was lying on the stone bench, disappeared and went into Luo Ruo's arms.
"Store Manager Mo, is this your demon pet? It's so cute. What's its name?" Luo Ruo said excitedly.
"Auspicious."
Putting down the bowl and chopsticks, Mo Tiankong said.
"Well, let's eat first." Mo Tiankong changed the topic.
"Auspicious, just give it some meat. It can eat by itself." Mo Tiankong looked at Auspicious, who was lying comfortably in Luo Ruo's arms, and said.
"It's okay, Store Manager Mo. I'll feed Auspicious." Luo Ruo didn't care. She held Auspicious with one hand and picked up food with the other.
Mo Tiankong's mouth twitched. How could this guy be loved by everyone? Feeding? This treatment, he was very envious.
But in a few seconds, Auspicious ran away. Because Luo Ruo picked up seaweed, not meat. Auspicious was very picky. It didn't eat anything that wasn't meat.
"Ah, why did it run away?" Luo Ruo said a little discouraged. Did it not like her? But it was holding it well just now.
Ji Xiang ran back to his stone stool like a wisp of smoke and then looked at Mo Tiankong.
"Auspicious only eats meat, not seaweed." Mo Tiankong said as he picked up a few pieces of meat for Auspicious.
"Auspicious only eats meat?" Saying that, he also picked up some meat for Auspicious.
"Luo Ruo, you eat too." Seeing Luo Ruo busy picking up meat for Auspicious for a long time, Mo Tiankong reminded her.
Mo Tiankong had eaten a bowl of rice by himself. She hadn't started yet, and the dishes were almost gone.
"Okay." Luo Ruo answered and picked up her bowl.
To be honest, Luo Ruo's cooking skills weren't bad. Although it wasn't as good as the chefs in restaurants, it was still good. At least, it wasn't burnt and the taste wasn't bad.
Especially with the enhancement of the God of Cooking Set and the enhancement of the Universal Condiment Box, the taste was not bad. It was comparable to his.
In any case, Mo Tiankong had been practicing his culinary skills for four months, so he was pretty good at it. Of course, that was just his own opinion.
After dinner, Auspicious went to the kitchen with the bowl and chopsticks in her mouth as usual. Luo Ruo helped her clean up.
Mo Tiankong didn't say anything. If Luo Ruo was willing to help Auspicious, then so be it. He couldn't refuse.
However, looking at Auspicious's happy face, Mo Tiankong couldn't stand it anymore.
"Auspicious, you've put on some weight recently." Mo Tiankong said coldly.
"Do you want to exercise?" Mo Tiankong was mainly afraid that Ji Xiang would forget his dignity and hug Luo Ruo's thigh from now on. It was necessary to teach it a lesson from time to time.
"Store Manager Mo, where should I put the bracelet?" Luo Ruo asked before he could put away Auspicious.
"Put the bracelet in the cashier's cabinet. You can put it on when you come to the store every morning." Mo Tiankong let go of Auspicious and stood up.
"Okay, then I'll go first."
"Okay. Be careful. Don't come here too early to wait for me." Mo Tiankong suddenly remembered that Luo Ruo was waiting outside the store early in the morning.
After Luo Ruo left, Mo Tiankong closed the door and went back to the backyard. He didn't want to teach Auspicious a lesson. He directly put her back into the card space and went upstairs.
.....
Wednesday.
Luo Ruo was still waiting outside early. Although the store's door was only a door, only Mo Tiankong could open it during business hours. If this was on Earth, it could be used as a burglar-proof door business.
Many warriors asked about the lottery when they entered the store. However, it was obvious that the lottery tickets had been sold out yesterday. Mo Tiankong was conservative and limited the number of tickets to 5,000 for the first sale.
He didn't expect the response to be so good. He could sell more tickets next time.
"Everyone, the lottery tickets have been sold out. If you want to buy more, come back next week." Mo Tiankong said loudly when he saw that many warriors were surrounding him.
This was to create hype for next week's lottery tickets. One reason was because he wanted to sell more tickets next week. The other reason was that Mo Tiankong was going to make a lot of Spirit Stones.
After hearing Mo Tiankong's words, the warriors who wanted to buy tickets gave up. There would still be tickets next week.
By noon, Mo Tiankong and Luo Ruo had cleared out all the warriors in the store.
The two of them were indeed much faster. However, it wasn't a one-plus-one speed. Sometimes, when they bought more items, they had to confirm whether the items matched the Spirit Stones. This step still took some time.
If Luo Ruo encountered warriors who bought more items, she would have to count them with her eyes because she didn't have Spiritual Power. Her speed inevitably slowed down. However, Mo Tiankong still collected the money as usual. The combination of the two was still very fast.
In addition, there was one more person to share the burden of paying. Other than most of the warriors in the morning, Luo Ruo was basically the one fighting for the cashier.
Mo Tiankong was free now. He didn't forget to summon the Auspicious today. However, when the store was busy, this guy would sleep under the cashier.
Now that it wasn't busy and was being hugged by Luo Ruo, it didn't resist. Because it was sentient, it remembered that it was Luo Ruo who cooked and gave it meat yesterday.
In the afternoon, a group of people walked in.
Mo Tiankong looked up and saw that it was Yan Xiu and the others.
After the new items were put on the shelves, Yan Xiu came once. However, he only bought one of each item and didn't buy more. Even so, he was still a big customer.
"Third Prince, long time no see." Mo Tiankong smiled and greeted him.
"Store Manager Mo, I've been here many times." Yan Xiu was stunned. After the news of the grocery store spread to the capital, he had been here many times.
Although he didn't come once a week, it was close. Because of the new items and so on, the number of times he came as a representative of the royal family.
"Store Manager Mo, this is …" Today was a little different. There was one more person at the cashier and Yan Xiu didn't know how to address her.
"Oh, oh, this is the new employee. Her name is Luo Ruo." Mo Tiankong said. Why was Yan Xiu looking at him a little strangely?
Today was Luo Ruo's second day at the store. Everyone in Sentry Town knew that she was the store's employee.
After a round of introductions, Yan Xiu didn't stay and led the others to the shelves.
Martial artists also walked in one after another. During the day, there were still martial artists who came. Yan Xiu and the others had also finished shopping and were walking over.
Mo Tiankong looked and saw that there were still many items to buy. The most important thing was that the prices weren't low.
"Store Manager Mo, how many Spirit Stones are there in total?" Yan Xiu asked.
"Ten Transportation Formations, one million Spirit Stones, twenty Five Element Marbles, twenty million Spirit Stones, one hundred Martial Skill Pills, five million Spirit Stones, a total of twenty-six million Spirit Stones."
This was the largest single transaction so far. The royal family also put in a lot of money. Just the Five Element Marbles alone were worth twenty million Spirit Stones.
Mo Tiankong didn't know if the royal family gave them to Martial Kings, Martial Emperors, or Martial Supremacies. However, this transaction cost him two and a half Rank cultivation. As expected, the royal family was definitely the Aquamarine Empire's biggest customer.
They were really rich. Mo Tiankong smacked his lips and thought to himself. If they spent so many Spirit Stones to buy groceries, then this was far from the limit.
The royal family had accumulated Spirit Stones for so many years. It was estimated that they had hundreds of millions of Spirit Stones, or even billions of Spirit Stones.
Mo Tiankong thought of Yan Li again. A prince could take out tens of millions of Spirit Stones. This guess was still possible.
When Yan Li came, he came in private. This was because Yan Xiu didn't mention anything about Yan Li during the few times he came. This meant that it was his personal property. From small to big, one could see how much wealth an empire accumulated.
At the same time, they had to maintain the empire's operations. This huge machine consumed a lot of Spirit Stones.
Mo Tiankong wondered if he was being too kind by only adding Yan Li to the blacklist. If it wasn't for his low cultivation, Mo Tiankong would have immediately gone to the capital and asked the Martial Emperor for compensation for his mental trauma.
This matter wasn't over yet. Without hundreds of millions of Spirit Stones, Yan Li could forget about buying his life.
Mo Tiankong was a little angry. After assassinating him, he would still be free in the capital except for not being able to use the groceries. Originally, he wanted to ask for tens of millions of Spirit Stones, but the royal family was so rich. It wouldn't be good if he didn't ask for more.
However, it still had to be based on strength. With his current cultivation, going to the capital would be suicide. He had to bear with it for now.
Moreover, Yan Xiu didn't have any grudges against him. He couldn't really blacklist everyone from the royal family. After all, they were the store's biggest customers.
Once everyone was blacklisted, at most, they wouldn't be able to use the groceries. That would be the empire's counterattack. After all, the store was within the empire. If they really wanted to boycott the store, there would definitely be fewer martial artists coming.
Or they could send experts to guard the store and prevent people from buying. Mo Tiankong knew his own situation. If they really fell out, the System might not care. There was no need to open a store to do business. Every time Yan Xiu came over, his attitude was very good.
"Store Manager Mo, please check." Yan Xiu waved his hand and a few spatial rings appeared on the counter.
"That's right." After Mo Tiankong accepted them, the System also confirmed the quantity.
"Then I'll take my leave first." After the transaction, Yan Xiu didn't want to delay and immediately said goodbye.
"Take care." Mo Tiankong replied.
After yesterday's influence, Luo Ruo was also used to it. Mo Tiankong's employee benefits were that they could choose any item from the store for three months. The most expensive item was only a million spirit stones. However, yesterday's turnover was more than a million spirit stones.
Today's transaction was tens of millions. No wonder he didn't care. Just based on today's transaction, if she was paid, she would have to work as an employee for at least six years.
In these six years, how many spirit stones could the grocery store earn? Luo Ruo felt that her brain wasn't enough. She couldn't think of it.
Mo Tiankong didn't think much of it. This transaction was a lot, but this week's turnover wasn't much compared to the previous two days. In addition, there weren't many large transactions during this period.
Mo Tiankong still didn't have a clue about the reputation points from the main mission. According to how the martial artists in the Aquamarine Empire were slowly spreading, how long would it take?
