Luo Ruo was a little sad that Auspicious was taken away. It was so comfortable to hug Auspicious. However, she wasn't its owner after all, so Mo Tiankong couldn't do anything about it.
"System, about Luo Ruo's reward, can you give it to her in advance?" Mo Tiankong asked the System in his mind.
He would be gone for about half a year, and the store's employees would be able to receive an item for free when the three-month deadline was up. If he wasn't there then, he wouldn't be able to complete the task.
After thinking about it, the only solution was to give it in advance. Today was the third week since Luo Ruo came to the store. Mo Tiankong felt that she was doing a good job. She even cooked for him and Auspicious every day.
It didn't matter if it was given in advance. As for running away after receiving the item, it was impossible. It was difficult to cheat the System of its Spirit Stones and run away.
"Okay, but this is an exception." The System was silent for a while before it replied concisely.
Logically speaking, the System wouldn't be able to receive the item before the three-month deadline was up, so this was really an exception. Considering that Mo Tiankong wasn't in the store, the reward was given in advance.
"Luo Ruo, after eating, pick an item from the store as your reward. I'll be gone for a long time this time, so I'll give it to you first." Mo Tiankong said after he got the answer.
"Ah, I've only been in the store for a few weeks. You can give it to me when Store Manager Mo comes back." Luo Ruo was a little surprised. She had only been in the store for three weeks, and it wasn't good to give her a reward in advance.
"Then it's settled." Mo Tiankong wasn't the type to owe others. When he first came, Mo Tiankong only left some living expenses for himself and returned the rest to the System.
Mo Tiankong also scrimped and saved for a few weeks to pay it back. The feeling of being in debt wasn't too good. Besides, the System had already agreed, so there was no need to wait for him to come back.
Luo Ruo wanted to say something, but Mo Tiankong had already made his decision. She could only listen to Mo Tiankong.
After dinner, Luo Ruo helped clear the table. Under Mo Tiankong's gaze, Auspicious stood up with a plate in her mouth and walked slowly to the kitchen.
When Mo Tiankong returned to the lobby, he first placed the Martial Skill Pills in the cabinet at the cash register counter. There were two cabinets at the cash register counter. One of them was the one Luo Ruo used to release her bracelet every day, while the one outside was empty.
More than ten bottles of Martial Technique Pills were placed in the cabinet. Mo Tiankong did this mainly to save time. After all, if he was around, he could change the words on the signboard at any time. If he wasn't around, it would be too troublesome. Not only would he have to change the words, he would also have to adjust the quantity of each item. He might as well just set it as Martial Technique Pills.
There were many people who wanted to try their luck. After all, if they won, it would be a great opportunity. At the very least, they wouldn't have to worry about cultivation resources for a few years.
Looking at the clock on the wall, Mo Tiankong explained to Luo Ruo again. The main thing was that they had to leave the store 15 minutes after closing.
After thinking about it, he had pretty much finished explaining everything. Opening and closing the store, and also the use of lottery items. This was set up by Mo Tiankong every week. Luo Ruo didn't know how to do it.
Therefore, he still had to teach her this. Mo Tiankong pulled Luo Ruo to the cash register and directly taught her how to do it. Every time, he would set up 50,000 lottery tickets. Each ticket would be sold for two spirit stones. Finally, he reminded her to look at the winning numbers on the back on Sunday. Then, he would give the prize to the martial artist with all the correct numbers.
She didn't need to understand this, she just needed to follow it. Mo Tiankong demonstrated and Luo Ruo memorized it. She would do it this way in the future.
After teaching her how to use the lottery items, Mo Tiankong asked, "Luo Ruo, have you thought about what item you want to choose?"
This was also the last item. After finishing this, there was nothing else to be done. He could leave tomorrow, or even two days earlier. When the time came, the countdown would be about right, and he would have two extra days to make use of.
Because the side mission would start counting down the moment he received it, the System had set a three-day countdown. Therefore, strictly speaking, if he left tomorrow and didn't receive the side mission, he would have two extra days to prepare.
When the countdown was about to end, he would receive the side mission. At that time, the side mission would start counting down. Mo Tiankong wasn't sure if he could complete the side mission, so he wanted to spend as much time as possible.
"Store Manager Mo, I want to receive the Inheritance Pearl. Can I?" After Luo Ruo finished speaking, she looked at Mo Tiankong with a questioning gaze.
Mo Tiankong was stunned. What? Were the Five Element Marbles not expensive or were they not useful? She chose the Inheritance Pearl, which was only worth 200,000 Spirit Stones.
There was really someone who didn't want to receive an expensive item. Mo Tiankong didn't come back to his senses for a moment. Most importantly, this wasn't from him. It was from the System. Why was she being so polite?
"Yes, but are you sure you want the Inheritance Pearl?" Mo Tiankong asked Luo Ruo.
"I'm sure," Luo Ruo said without hesitation.
She had thought about the rewards of the grocery store for a long time. Mo Tiankong treated her well, so she couldn't receive anything that was too expensive. She was sorry, especially since he had given it to her in advance.
Moreover, things like the Five Element Marbles were a disaster if she didn't have the strength. If she sold them, people might treat her nicely because she was a clerk of the grocery store. However, there was also a possibility that they wouldn't buy it. It was related to a million Spirit Stones, so it was enough to move people.
Therefore, in conclusion, it was best to receive a relatively cheap item. What she needed the most now were Cultivation Techniques, Martial Techniques, and Spirit Stones. After all, it had been a long time since she went on a mission. Without any income, she had to spend her previous savings to buy cultivation resources.
Luo Ruo's thoughts were similar to Mo Tiankong's when he received the Inheritance Pearl. The only difference was that Luo Ruo was going to sell it once and use the remaining two times with her grandfather.
After selling the remaining chance, she could exchange it for some Spirit Stones. Therefore, she had already decided on the items she would receive in three months.
Mo Tiankong directly took an Inheritance Pearl from the shelf and gave it to Luo Ruo. After asking again, the answer was still the same, so he could only give it to her.
Ai, silly girl. She didn't take the Five Element Marbles. If she took one Five Element Marbles and exchanged it for a million Spirit Stones, the System would probably agree. Previously, during the Snowball Battle, the cultivator who won took the Martial Technique Pill and sold it to the store.
Generally, the grocery store wouldn't accept returns or exchanges for Spirit Stones. However, because it was a cultivator who participated in the competition, the System was lenient. As a clerk, Luo Ruo should be able to exchange the Five Element Marbles for Spirit Stones.
However, this was an invisible rule. For example, Mo Tiankong could directly exchange the items he received for Spirit Stones. This was also an invisible rule.
"Okay, go back early," Mo Tiankong said after looking at the time. It was almost 12 o 'clock.
"Okay, then I'll go back first," Luo Ruo quickly said after receiving the Inheritance Pearl. She was clearly very excited.
After sending Luo Ruo off, Mo Tiankong also returned to the backyard. He had given the necessary instructions and also dealt with some problems with the store.
Since he told Luo Ruo some things to pay attention to today, he decided to leave tomorrow. After making up his mind, Mo Tiankong prepared to pack up his things.
He took out a storage ring and wore it on his hand. It was still possible to store some unimportant things, and it was also necessary. It was better to keep a low profile outside.
"Should I bring pots and pans?" Mo Tiankong walked into the kitchen and looked at the items with a bit of hesitation. He had to be in the wilderness often, so he definitely had to cook for himself. Thinking about it, it would be best to bring a tent or something.
Just as he was about to open his mouth and ask the System, he thought about it and decided against it. The System was a profiteer. Mo Tiankong finally realized that as long as the items were not sold in the store, Mo Tiankong could buy them at least ten or a hundred times the price. There was no need to buy them.
Mo Tiankong decided to bring some pots and pans. He also took out most of the ingredients. Although he was not in the store, although the System kept them fresh, he could not waste them. Without saying anything, he brought them all.
As for the tent and other things, forget about it. If he was in the wilderness, a simple camp would be enough. He went upstairs and took a quilt.
Then there were clothes. After traveling for so long, he definitely needed a lot of clothes. He took all the clothes in the wardrobe. There were about a hundred pieces of clothes, but after taking them away, the System added some more.
Alright, the ten square meter spatial ring was almost filled to the brim with items. Mo Tiankong pondered for a moment to see if there were any items that he had missed out, but it seemed that there were none.
Important things like the Gatling Gun and cigarettes were all stored in the storage ring. There was also the Great Xia Dragonfinch. He also cleaned up the storage ring.
There were too many storage rings and interspatial pouches. Mo Tiankong put them all in a storage box. After four to five months of operation, he had accumulated a lot.
Putting them in the storage ring would take up space. As for Luo Ruo's storage ring, they were all in the bracelet. Since Mo Tiankong was out, there was no need to store them. The storage space in the storage ring could be emptied.
The storage space in the storage ring had always been ten slots. The System did not expand it, so the storage space was very important.
After sorting it out, there were only the Great Xia Dragonfinch, Gatling Gun, cigarettes, a lighter, and two bottles of Thousand Island Lake Beer. Similar items could be stacked, so they only took up one slot in the backpack. There were still five empty slots, which made things more comfortable.
As for whether Mo Tiankong wanted to buy some items for the store, there was no need for that. A portable store could be bought with spirit stones. The System was bound to his soul, so wherever Mo Tiankong was, the System would be there.
If it was a general store, the System would leave a trace of power in the store. The System would be able to open and close the store daily and ensure the order of the store.
It would also be able to replenish the goods after the store closed every day to ensure that the store could operate normally. Otherwise, it would not have given Mo Tiankong a side quest.
