One hundred thousand grenades were all spirit stones. If Mo Tiankong used them himself, what would he do? Destroy a country or something? If he used so many, even if he wanted to destroy a country, would he be able to recoup the cost?
After all, Mo Tiankong was only one person. If he did not have enough time to collect the treasures, who knew if there would be more? However, if he attacked the capital, he would definitely be able to recoup the cost.
But the key was that he only wanted to do business. If he destroyed a country and the number of warriors decreased, who would buy the items? Or rather, who would sell them to?
Was he going to move the shops to other empires? This was not something that he could do as he wished. If the System did not agree, there was nothing he could do.
Previously, Mo Tiankong had wanted to open a branch, but the System did not trigger any mission. This meant that the System had no intention of moving or opening a shop for the time being.
Mo Tiankong had also made a lot of guesses. For example, the System only wanted one shop. If he opened all over the continent, it would be too utilitarian. Moreover, it would not look cool.
If he wanted items, he could come and buy them. This was probably the System's idea, and it was possible.
Moreover, opening countless branches did not necessarily mean that business would be good. The time limit of the items and the amount of spirit stones were limited. Even if he opened dozens of shops in every city, it would be the same. The number of purchases should not be too different.
The only problem now was that he had not spread the news to the entire continent. Otherwise, the total number of items sold would be about the same.
Whether it was buying in bulk and selling them in their respective empires or opening countless branches, warriors would be able to buy them at any time.
Spirit stones were limited. Although they could be regenerated, the speed was still very slow. It was normal for mines to take decades or even centuries to form. The reason why it felt like there was an unlimited supply of spirit stones was mainly because he was using his previous capital.
Otherwise, no matter how many mines there were, it would not be enough. If he used up a large amount of spirit stones every once in a while, where would he go to get more?
Moreover, there were many undiscovered mines. The ones that were discovered by warriors were still very few. With the help of the Treasure Seeking Compass, many mines were discovered one after another.
The Profound Sky Continent was so big, and it had been accumulated for thousands of years. Even if Mo Tiankong had dozens of items worth millions or even tens of millions of spirit stones, he would not run out of spirit stones.
The land was huge, and there were also many mountain ranges. The reason why the cities were so far apart from each other was because they were separated by large and small mountain ranges. It was impossible to build a city on top of a mountain.
The heights were different, and the terrain was not suitable for building a large city. There were also countless demonic beasts entrenched in the mountains. These places were their territory.
Who would build a city for you? Although Demonic Beasts couldn't enter human countries, their nests had already been occupied. A cornered dog might jump over the wall in desperation and perish together with the enemy.
No matter if it was a human or a Demonic Beast, if they were forced into a corner, the worst that could happen would be mutual destruction. Therefore, humans would at most hunt Demonic Beasts and would not occupy these territories.
Although there were few high level Demonic Beasts, there were still some. If a race war really broke out, humans would not have it easy either. Their population would probably decrease sharply.
Around evening, under the hard work of Mo Tiankong and Luo Ruo, there were only a few warriors left in the shop. Mo Tiankong also walked out of the shop to get some fresh air.
At night, there were still quite a few warriors strolling around the Miracle Plaza. This was also a good place to take a stroll. There were moonstones inlaid on both sides, emitting a white light. It was incomparably bright.
It was different from the cloud lanterns in the shops. In the Profound Sky Continent, moonstones were used as lighting tools at night.
Moonstones could absorb light during the day, and then emit this light at night. The light lasted for a long time, and one night was enough.
The price was also relatively cheap. After all, it was not a graded ore. Restaurants, inns, and shops all used moonstones for lighting.
The effect was not worse than the light bulbs on Earth. It was considered a mainstream lighting tool. Shops all used electric lights.
He did not know where the System got the electricity, but with the ability of the System, the conversion of energy was still very simple.
However, in these two days, many shops and restaurants were covered with red lanterns. This way, the light reflected was red. Was this because it was almost the New Year?
Mo Tiankong rubbed his chin as he thought. When he just came back, he saw many places with red lanterns.
It might really be because it was almost the New Year. Many villages on Earth still had the habit of lighting up lanterns. When it was close to the end of the year, they would light up some lanterns in front of their doors.
He did not know if they would set off firecrackers or something like that. It seemed that no matter which world it was, the New Year was somewhat similar.
Mo Tiankong did not see any items like firecrackers. Speaking of which, shouldn't he draw a set of three items for the New Year this time?
Firecrackers, fireworks, and couplets. That would be interesting, but relatively speaking, it was not very practical. There was no need for that.
Just as he was thinking, a group of martial artists walked over from the square. Mo Tiankong looked and saw that it was Kuang Tie and the others.
Speaking of which, it had been a long time since he saw Kuang Tie. He remembered that during the previous few activities, Kuang Tie was not in Sentry Town. So, it had been a long time since he last saw him. It had been more than four months.
Monkey and the others also came. Li Qing was now a rank three Martial King. His strength had increased by quite a lot.
Of course, it was not only Li Qing. Many of the mercenaries who came with him had their cultivations increased by quite a lot. For example, Monkey and the others had reached the high level of Wuzong.
With the Thousand Island Lake Beer, their mental power had increased very quickly. So, their cultivation had increased very quickly.
The one who improved the most was Kuang Tie. He was the same age as Mo Tiankong. At the end of this year, he had officially entered the Wuzong realm. In a year's time, his cultivation had increased by two ranks. It could be said that he had improved very quickly.
It was considered normal. With the Thousand Island Lake Beer, his mental power was already a high level Martial Master. With Wangzai's acceleration, he had quickly surpassed the Martial General realm. Now, he had entered the Wuzong realm. Although he was only a rank one Wuzong.
Of course, since the mercenary group had developed so quickly, as the only son of Kuang Shi, he did not have to worry about resources. In addition, his talent was not weak. It was not bad for him to have such a cultivation.
This was the effect of the grocery store. Otherwise, with talent and spirit stones, the major clans wouldn't be too bad. Compared to the past, they had improved by quite a bit.
It was rare to see a Martial Warrior on the streets now. Most of them were at the Martial Master realm. Among them, the outstanding ones, which were the local tyrants, had advanced very quickly.
As for how Mo Tiankong remembered the cultivation of the mercenary group, it was thanks to Mad Lion's recruitment rules. They took the elite route and only recruited Martial Generals and above.
Therefore, there was a standard for reference. After Kuang Tie, there seemed to be no more Martial Masters. Looking at it directly according to the Martial General Realm, these mercenaries had indeed improved.
Previously, he had been brought to the store by Monkey and the others, so he knew some people.
"Store Manager Mo."
"Store Manager Mo."
"We heard that you were back. We specially came to see you."
"That's right, that's right."
"Store Manager Mo, long time no see."
When Mo Tiankong saw this group of people, they also saw Mo Tiankong. When they reached the door, they all greeted him.
"Oh, am I that good looking?" Mo Tiankong said to Monkey. The one who said that he specially came to see him was undoubtedly Monkey.
"To be honest, Store Manager Mo, in Miracle City, I am the most handsome. Behind me is you." Monkey said narcissistically.
Mo Tiankong did not reply. He glanced at this guy. Speaking of which, how did he get the nickname Monkey?
"Kuang Tie, long time no see." Mo Tiankong turned to greet the Kuang Tie.
Seeing that Mo Tiankong ignored him, Monkey did not ask for a rebuff and asked, "Store Manager Mo, I heard that the store updated its items. What is it?"
"Well, three items are on sale. However, they are only on sale for three days. It can be considered as a New Year's benefit for the store. After that, they will be removed." Mo Tiankong explained the benefit.
"Why would they be removed?" Monkey asked, unable to understand.
"…" Mo Tiankong rolled his eyes. These items were not on sale after the store was upgraded. Therefore, the System would not be so kind as to sell them if they were not on sale during the promotion period.
After all, it was so difficult to upgrade the store. Each time, only three items would be on sale. It was impossible to get the System to sell three items for free.
"Store Manager Mo, can you introduce the next three items?" Kuang Tie asked.
Kuang Tie and the others came over after hearing the names of the items. They did not know the specific effects, so they asked at this time.
"There are not many warriors in the store now. You can go in and see for yourselves." It was not that Mo Tiankong was unwilling to introduce the items, but that a group of people was blocking the door. Therefore, he quickly let them in.
"Oh, okay."
"Let's go in and see what the items are."
"Speaking of which, did you bring enough spirit stones?"
"Don't worry, I brought all my money."
"I don't know if the items on sale are expensive."
"If it's too expensive, I can't afford it."
"If it's expensive, then buy the Thousand Island Lake Beer."
The group of people entered noisily. Mo Tiankong shook his head. How should he put it? Mercenaries were more straightforward and cute.
The Thousand Island Lake Beer was still the favorite of these people. Thinking of this, Mo Tiankong inexplicably imagined a group of men holding beer and queuing up to pay for it. It was poisonous.
Today was the first day of the promotion. The items sold were considered passable. The three new items on sale were all sold, but the quantity was relatively small.
Only Yan Xiu bought a large batch. The rest were scattered and sold. The big and small factions of Miracle City did not come, but many small factions came.
Zhang, Ye, Li, Tang, and the other families did not come. It was unknown whether they were busy or had other things to do. It was not that these factions did not buy the items, but more that these few families had spirit stones.
Just the income from the teleportation array was not bad. There were also spirit stone mines, shops, businesses, caravans, and so on. To put it bluntly, these few families were much richer than ordinary Martial Emperors.
