"Store Manager Mo, I've chosen the items for this purchase." Gao Jian greeted him.
"200 packs of chewing gum for one million spirit stones, 1000 grenades for one million spirit stones, 2000 bottles of Thousand Island Lake beer for one million spirit stones, 2 five elemental marbles for two million spirit stones, 5 Inheritance Orbs for one million spirit stones, 20 Martial Skill Pills for one million spirit stones, 200 Ferghana Horse Cards for one million spirit stones, 50 Tiger-Headed Sea Eagle Cards for one million spirit stones, 10 small teleportation arrays for one million spirit stones, a total of 10 million spirit stones."
Mo Kongkong said after checking all the items. Friendship was friendship, business still had to be done properly.
Because it was a business, the items they bought were a bit more complicated. However, 10 million spirit stones worth of items was enough to show the Gao Family's strength.
When Mo Tiankong was in Songcheng, the Gao Family had already bought a batch of items. It was also in the tens of millions of spirit stones, so they were quite generous.
The items they bought each time were at least 10 million spirit stones, which was more than many businesses.
This was easy to understand. In the past, there were no teleportation arrays, so the risk of traveling was still very high. Therefore, even if they could earn a lot of spirit stones, they would only buy in small amounts.
After all, if they bought everything, if they were robbed or something happened on the road, they would fall from heaven to hell in an instant.
It was simply too bad, so they didn't dare to buy so many items. If something happened, they would lose all their savings.
Even now, the Aquamarine Empire had already set up teleportation arrays, so the dangers of traveling in the wild were a lot less. However, there were still accidents. For example, if strong experts were involved in a battle, or if there were crazy robbers directly waiting at the teleportation arrays.
Of course, the danger of running away after robbing was greater. Most of them were brought to justice. Only a small number of slightly stronger and more experienced martial artists were able to escape.
Of course, relatively speaking, it was much better after the teleportation arrays were set up. There were very few robberies, so it was basically negligible.
Although the grocery store made money, it also made a certain contribution to the safety of the empire.
This kind of thing could not be stopped. Mo Tiankong had heard some news of this kind recently, but overall, it was relatively peaceful.
As long as people had evil intentions, there was no way to put an end to it. Just like on Earth, although there were laws and restrictions, there were still people who took risks.
In short, achieving a relatively peaceful state was already good enough. This could be considered one of the benefits of the Teleportation Circle.
Speaking of which, there was an old saying that went, "If you want to be rich, you must first build a road." In such a huge place like the Tianxuan Continent, even the distance between the cities was so far away. The transportation array was undoubtedly a transportation route.
It would be very helpful for businesses, martial arts, and other aspects. In the past, low-level martial artists might not have been able to go to other cities in their entire lives. But now, at least there was hope. In the future, if they had the opportunity, they would be able to go to various places in the empire and even go out of the Xuan Domain.
"Store Manager Mo, here are the spirit stones. Check them." Gao Jian took out several spatial rings and handed them to Mo Tiankong.
The Gao Family's trading company naturally did not dare to bring too many spirit stones. It was not easy to travel through mountains and rivers, and not all places had transportation arrays.
At least in the Xiu Mi Empire, only Pine City and a few nearby cities had transportation arrays. Along the way, they also avoided the other empires. Thinking about it, there should not be any.
In fact, even if they passed by, there was a high probability that there was no transportation array. Only the few empires near the Aquamarine Empire had transportation arrays.
This wasn't just a guess. When Mo Tiankong returned, he had also visited several empires. It was only when he arrived at the Great Wan Empire that he saw the shadow of a transmission array. Moreover, he had only laid out a small part of the empire.
From this, it could be seen that the other empires might only have transportation arrays in a few cities. It was still a bit early for transportation arrays to be widespread.
However, this time, he should be able to use the transportation arrays in the Da Wan Empire or Gui Shuang Empire to travel less.
His reputation in the Eastern Xuan Domain had reached 38%. Basically, the two neighboring empires should have transportation arrays in 80% to 90% of their cities. He could use them.
"That's right. Steward Gao, let's go to the backyard and have a seat. I will personally cook tonight," said Mo Tiankong after the System confirmed.
He couldn't let everyone in the Gao Family wait for business hours to end. That was definitely not possible. Therefore, Mo Tiankong planned to cook himself and let Luo Ruo watch over the store.
Because of the welfare mission, Mo Tiankong could not rest today even if he wanted to. During the mission, the rest time could not be adjusted.
He could only let Luo Ruo watch over the store. After business hours, he would cook something for Luo Ruo.
Every month, business hours still had to be maintained. However, because the store had employees, Mo Tiankong could go out during business hours.
The stipulated rest time was actually only six days. It required 24 business days. If Mo Tiankong wanted to go out, at least someone in the store had to keep it open.
"It's my pleasure," said Gao Jian with a smile.
Gao Jian was also a Martial Emperor. However, his cultivation was only at the peak of the Martial King Realm. The Gao Family had bought some Five Element Marbles and one of them was given to him.
Therefore, he broke through to the Martial Emperor realm and became the steward of the Glory Ascension Trading Company. He was responsible for some matters of the Gao Family Trading Company, including this trip to the Aquamarine Empire across multiple empires. For the sake of safety, he had sent Gao Jian.
Mo Tiankong's cultivation was much higher than Gao Jian's. Naturally, he could see his cultivation.
Then, Mo Tiankong led the group to the backyard.
After chatting for a while, Mo Tiankong got up and prepared to cook. It was already around five o 'clock in the afternoon. This was the time to cook.
There were many ingredients to buy, but Mo Tiankong didn't know how to cook. Therefore, simple fish and meat were enough. He didn't know how to cook vegetables from the Tianxuan Continent.
He could cook them, but he didn't know if they would taste good. Without thinking too much, he began to choose the ingredients. First was fish, then prawns. Two large fish that were over a meter long were cleaned. A pair of prawns that weighed 20 pounds were cleaned. There were also scallops and the like.
Mo Tiankong thought about it and decided to make some barbecue. Therefore, he took out the barbecue rack and placed two antelope legs on it. The meat was tender and small. Antelope could be considered a specialty of Miracle City.
The Antelope Mountain Range had the most antelope. Many warriors would hunt some and sell them from time to time. To them, they were tired of eating antelope. However, the people from the Gao Family and Mo Tiankong didn't eat much.
Some scallops were placed on the edge of the barbecue rack. The space of the barbecue rack was used perfectly. It took a long time to barbecue, so it was time to cook.
There weren't many dishes, but the portions were full. After all, they were filled with soup bowls, which were usually used to hold soup. The bowls were for eating behind closed doors. At the very least, they had to be presentable when they entertained guests.
Although the soup bowls were big, at least they looked good. He peeled off the meat of a prawn and started to stir-fry it. The all-purpose seasoning had dried chili, so stir-frying dried chili with dried shrimps was good.
Then, he stewed a sea fish in a big pot. This couldn't be placed in a soup bowl. It was directly placed in a basin. After the two dishes, Mo Tiankong walked out of the kitchen to check on the barbecue. The scallops were basically ready. After sprinkling some seasoning, they were placed in a basin.
The antelope leg was smeared with oil before the seasoning was sprinkled. The remaining prawn and fish were brought over to barbecue. At the moment, three dishes were ready.
Then, Mo Tiankong took out the pork he bought and prepared to make a red braised pork. It was time to make these people greedy. After the meat was dipped in water, it was cut into pieces. Then, he added some supplementary ingredients and stir-fried it. When the edges were almost golden, he added water and simmered it. Finally, he put the sauce on high heat and put it in a soup bowl.
There were four dishes. The last dish was the cold seaweed. He just had to mix it in the soup bowl. Then, he added some seasoning, chili noodles, and the like. There were five dishes.
Forget about the vegetables. He didn't know how to cook them. If they didn't taste good, it would be embarrassing. As for the soup, forget it. He would just drink wine later.
Compared to soup, warriors probably preferred drinking wine. He took out two big plates and moved the barbecue rack to the side of the stone table. Then, he started to serve the dishes.
The stone table wasn't actually that big, but it was already filled to the brim. Mo Tiankong wondered if he should get a bigger table for this.
"Everyone, please take a seat." Seeing that Mo Tiankong was busy, these people didn't know how to help even if they wanted to. The barbecue rack needed seasoning, so they didn't dare to open their mouths. In the end, when Mo Tiankong came over, they all stood up.
Mo Tiankong bought six cartons of beer from the Thousand-island Lake. Each of them could enjoy one carton.
Auspicious came over unknowingly. Its nose was quite sharp. After it picked up some meat and opened a few bottles of beer, it let it lie on the stone bench and slowly eat.
"It is a blessing of three lifetimes to be able to eat the dishes personally cooked by Store Manager Mo. Let's toast to Store Manager Mo." Gao Jian raised his glass and said. Then, everyone followed suit.
"You're too kind. Haha." Mo Tiankong also smiled and clinked glasses with everyone. What he said was true.
"Come, everyone, let's eat. There's enough beer. Drink to your heart's content." Mo Tiankong called out and started to eat.
The antelope leg was also placed on the big plates. It was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. As for the taste, it was needless to say. After all, it was made by the God of Cooking set. It was also delicious with the Universal Condiment Box.
Even if Mo Tiankong's cooking skills were average, the taste was still very good. At least, it was a few levels higher.
"Store Manager Mo, good cooking skills. Delicious." Gao Jian took a bite of the Red Braised Meat. It was fragrant, soft and hot. It melted in the mouth. It was fat but not greasy. He couldn't help but say.
"Delicious."
The others also spoke as they ate.
