"Okay, Luo Ruo and I will go." Mo Tiankong thought for a while. He had nothing to do on Saturday, so he could take it as a day off. He could still go and it wouldn't affect the lottery, which was on Sunday.
"Then I'll go back first." Seeing that Mo Tiankong agreed, Zhang Tiannan also went back to report.
Because Zhang Tiannan had been buying things for the family for a long time, and he was familiar with Mo Tiankong, he was sent to deliver the invitation.
Even Luo Ruo had sent an invitation. Mo Tiankong naturally knew the reason. If Luo Ruo didn't know anyone before, she definitely wouldn't have sent an invitation. But after becoming a grocery store clerk, her status was different. It wouldn't be bad for the Zhang family to do a favor.
Mo Tiankong agreed readily. Since they had already sent him an invitation, what else could he do? He had to accept it.
Thinking that he had to send a gift to attend a banquet, Mo Tiankong felt a headache. It was another invitation that he couldn't refuse. The key was that he didn't know what to send.
The Zhang family really didn't lack things in the store. Mo Tiankong didn't want to send anything expensive. He was spending his own Spirit Stones.
Alas, Mo Tiankong regretted agreeing so quickly. He couldn't send other things like cigarettes. If Old Master Zhang used it, he would have the strength of a Martial Grand Emperor.
No matter what the reason was, this couldn't be. Mo Tiankong regretted giving Yu Xiuyuan a cigarette. If he had known, he would have spent some Spirit Stones to buy something from the store.
As for Old Master Zhang's banquet, it was even worse. After all, he was the store manager of the grocery store. It wouldn't be good to send something too cheap.
This was another trap. Mo Tiankong put away the invitation, thinking about what to send.
The banquet was on Saturday, so he had to think about it quickly.
The Zhang family had already bought everything in the store. It wouldn't be appropriate to send something as a gift.
If he had known, Mo Tiankong would have rejected it. Now he had a headache thinking about it.
Mo Tiankong did not have much energy for the whole afternoon.
But at night, there was finally good news.
"Luo Ruo, how many tickets are left?" Mo Tiankong asked Luo Ruo, who was counting the tickets.
"There are 1,030 left," Luo Ruo replied.
After earning almost nine thousand spirit stones, Mo Tiankong felt a little better in his heart.
However, today was already Wednesday, and the sales speed was still not fast. If they were still not sold out in three days, it would affect their future plans.
These Spirit Stones were still not that easy to earn. If he were to use the Martial Skill Pills as a prize next week, it was still unknown if he could sell them all out.
Forget it, let's take it slow for the first few times. Starting from next month, the price increase will be acceptable. Let's do that.
Originally, he thought that he would just have to wait for the opening hours to end today. When it was close to closing time, Yu Xiuyuan came.
This guy had not been here for a while. He came last week and left after buying 1,000 sets of Wangzai.
"Store Manager Mo." Yu Xiuyuan looked good. He was not as haggard as before. He greeted Mo Tiankong as soon as he entered.
"Oh, Sect Master Yu is a rare guest." Mo Tiankong looked up and said teasingly.
This guy was dressed properly now. It seemed that he had changed after becoming the Sect Master.
"Store Manager Mo. The sect has just been rebuilt. Isn't there a lot to do?" Yu Xiuyuan explained.
Indeed, he had to lead the disciples to cultivate during the day and mine spirit stones at night. He did not have much time and rarely walked around Sentry Town.
"Okay, go do what you need to do. The store is about to close." Mo Tiankong was not interested in chatting anymore. The opening hours were about to end. If he did not buy anything, the store would be closed.
"Okay." Yu Xiuyuan also responded, then turned and walked towards the shelves.
Soon, Yu Xiuyuan came back. He bought a lot of things, but there were not many spirit stones. As usual, it was about the same as what he had bought before.
"Two sets of Wangzai, 20,000 spirit stones. Twenty bottles of Thousand Island Lake beer, 10,000 spirit stones. Ten thousand spirit stones for the Treasure Hunting Compass, 10,000 spirit stones for the total of 40,000 spirit stones." Mo Tiankong glanced and said.
"Store Manager Mo, check it." Yu Xiuyuan also took out a storage bag and handed it to Mo Tiankong.
After the transaction, Yu Xiuyuan left.
The difference this time was that there was an additional Treasure Hunting Compass. Mo Tiankong felt a bit strange. He had bought one before.
Could it be that the Spirit Stone mine had been emptied and they had to go out to look for more? That couldn't be right. Mining couldn't be so fast. Even if it was a Martial King level warrior, Mo Tiankong had been there before. Although it was a broken vein, there were still about a million Spirit Stones. It wouldn't be finished in a month.
Besides, he already had one Treasure Hunting Compass. He did not need two. Thinking about it, the only one who could use it was the Martial General level warrior that he had recruited before. When he had recruited disciples, he had also recruited some Martial Masters and Martial General level warriors.
If there were two Treasure Hunting Compasses, it meant that there were two people going out together. Yu Xiuyuan was also planning to go out to find natural treasures.
Tsk tsk, he had hurriedly rebuilt the sect. Now he was going to suffer.
Mo Tiankong shook his head and did not think about it anymore. No matter how many Yu Xiuyuan bought, it was his business.
After ten o 'clock, Mo Tiankong and Luo Ruo closed the shop and returned to the backyard.
"Luo Ruo, make a few more dishes today. The portions are the same as before," Mo Tiankong instructed.
They had bought a lot of ingredients yesterday. If they were not eating, why would they leave them? Auspicious also obediently squatted on the stone bench.
Soon, the dishes were ready. Mo Tiankong also went into the kitchen to help.
Luo Ruo also made five to six dishes according to Mo Tiankong's instructions. She had seen how powerful Auspicious was yesterday. Since Mo Tiankong had asked for more portions, she did not hold back. Moreover, Mo Tiankong had bought enough ingredients to last a month.
At the dining table, Mo Tiankong said as he ate.
"Luo Ruo, what do you think we should send to the Zhang family's banquet?"
Mo Tiankong's mind was filled with this matter. He was worried, so he wanted to ask for Luo Ruo's opinion.
"Well, Store Manager Mo. I don't know either." Luo Ruo was stunned when she heard Mo Tiankong's question. She was also invited and had to send a gift.
When Zhang Tiannan came today, not only did he invite her, but Luo Ruo was also invited. In other words, both of them had to send a gift.
After all, this was not an ordinary banquet. It was Old Master Zhang's promotion banquet. It would not be right if they did not send a gift.
Luo Ruo was also a little worried. She did not have anything good to send. If she had spirit stones, she would not have worked in the store.
Mo Tiankong did not get a response. He looked up at Luo Ruo. Alright, this child was also worried.
"At that time, I will prepare a gift for you." Luo Ruo was innocent. Mo Tiankong felt that he had to help her solve this problem.
"There's no need, Manager Mo. I can prepare my own gift," Luo Ruo hurriedly said. The remuneration of the shop was already very high. It was a bit unreasonable to ask Mo Kongkong to prepare a gift for her when she was invited.
However, the more she said, the less confident she became. For a big family like the Zhang family, it was Old Master Zhang's promotion banquet. On such an important occasion, she could not casually give a gift. She could only go back and see if her grandfather had anything good. After all, he was once a Wuzong level martial artist.
"Listen to me. Now help me think of a gift." Mo Tiankong obviously saw Luo Ruo's embarrassment, so he said with a straight face.
"I … Store Manager Mo, I can prepare a gift myself." However, Luo Ruo still gritted her teeth and said.
Regarding the gift, Luo Ruo still had her own insistence. This was absolutely not possible. As for asking for a reward in advance, she did not say it out loud. It was not appropriate to ask for a reward after only working in the store for ten days.
Besides, she was only a clerk in the grocery store. Her relationship with Mo Tiankong was only an employer-employee relationship. It was not appropriate for a girl to accept this gift for no reason.
Seeing Luo Ruo's insistence, Mo Tiankong could only give up the idea. Then, he said, "Alright, but can you help me think of a gift?"
"I think it's enough as long as the thought is enough," Luo Ruo said with a red face. Thinking that the gift she prepared was definitely not that good, she said that.
However, this sentence inspired Mo Tiankong. It was enough as long as the thought was enough. The Zhang family could afford the items in the grocery store. He just had to show some thought.
It was not a competition of whose gift was better. Of course, others might compare, but there was no need for him to do so. It was already good enough that he could attend.
The main reason was that they were more familiar with each other. It would not be good if he did not go. If other forces, such as the Four Great Families and Mad Lion, invited him inexplicably, he would definitely refuse.
However, among the Four Great Families, Mo Tiankong actually only had a slightly better relationship with the Zhang and Tang family. The Li and Ye families had passively accepted a favor and took the teleportation circle for free. If the two families invited Mo Tiankong, it would be difficult for him to refuse.
Although it was only a small favor, a favor was a favor. At this time, it was a little difficult to refuse.
It was the same for the Lin family. Although it was a small favor, it still had to be returned. They just invited him to a banquet. It was not a big deal. It would not be good if he did not go.
Thinking of this, Mo Tiankong also had a plan. He would give them a bottle of Martial Skill Pills. It was more in line with Mo Tiankong's limit. 50,000 Spirit Stones. During this period of time, he really spent money like water.
First, there was the feeding of Auspicious. Then, there was the banquet of the Zhang family. Although he had just earned two million Spirit Stones, he was still very poor. There were too many places to spend money.
"Let's eat. If we don't eat, Auspicious will be finished soon." Mo Tiankong made a decision in his heart and then said to Luo Ruo.
"Oh, oh …" Luo Ruo also came back to her senses. Looking at the half-eaten dishes, Auspicious also finished half of the dishes in a short while.
After eating, Mo Tiankong sent Luo Ruo out and then returned to the courtyard.
Now, Luo Ruo also helped to clean up the dishes. Therefore, Auspicious was very lazy again. After eating, it lay down on the stone bench and did not move. Looking at this rhythm, if he did not wake it up, it would probably fall asleep directly.
"Go upstairs." Mo Tiankong picked up Auspicious and shook it twice. Finally, the sleepy Auspicious was rescued. Don't thank me, I will call you Lei Feng.
Then, he carried Auspicious upstairs.
