After understanding the whole story, Mo Tiankong understood that this was a big customer. As long as he handled it well, he would be able to bring the store to greater heights. As long as he made a breakthrough, he would be a living example. He could make an advertisement or something and the store would be upgraded very quickly.
He pulled himself together and explained, "Brother Zhang, I didn't mean to mock you. Do you see the store behind me?"
"I know. It used to be a pub. Why?" Zhang Tiannan raised his head and looked at the name of the store. It was Super Grocery Store. Why did he change the store so quickly? He remembered drinking here before. But what the hell was this Super Grocery Store?
"Cough, cough. I own this store now."
"Store Manager Mo, why are you talking to me for so long?" Looking at the lobster in his hand, Zhang Tiannan was a little depressed as he stood at the door and chatted.
"Then I'll be direct. You've been stuck at the peak of Ninth Pin for a long time. I have a snack here that can help you break through the bottleneck and become a Martial Master, but it's more expensive." Were all the people in this world so direct? Did they not like to progress gradually? Did they get straight to the point after chatting for a while?
"Because I've taken a lot of precious medicinal pills, I've absorbed a lot of medicinal toxins. Now it's difficult for me to use medicinal pills to break through. Only when I break through can I expel some of the medicinal toxins and take medicinal pills again. Store Manager, what kind of snack do you have that counts as medicine?" Zhang Tiannan asked nervously. It was because he had been stuck at Ninth Pin for too long that he wanted to grab onto any glimmer of hope.
"Brother Zhang, let's move to the store. We'll talk after looking around." After saying that, he turned around and led Zhang Tiannan into the store.
The decoration of the store was very simple. The four walls were white, and the System had cut corners. Then, there was a row of shelves against the wall. Only one of the shelves had something in it. There was no other way. There were only three items in the store at the moment. He could only wait for more to be unlocked after upgrading.
Wangzai small steamed buns, Wangzai QQ candy, Wangzai milk, what the hell are these?
Zhang Tiannan was dumbfounded. First, was this Martial Warrior realm snack considered a medicinal pill? Did it have to be so expensive? The price was almost ten times that of a medicinal pill of the same level. Then, it had no side effects. Thus, Zhang Tiannan carefully thought back. Was there anyone in the continent who could refine a medicinal pill without any side effects? The answer was no. Could this be a scam?
She immediately turned around and wanted to leave, but after taking two steps, she was pulled back again.
"Store Manager Mo, let go. Do you think that I, Zhang Tiannan, am easy to bully, or do you think that the Zhang family of Sentry Town is easy to bully? At present, there is no pill on the continent that can be refined without any poison, and the price is much more expensive than ordinary pills. I won't argue with you. If you don't let go, I'll beat you to death."
Damn, he was just about to leave. Mo Tiankong hurriedly pulled Zhang Tiannan back.
As soon as Zhang Tiannan finished speaking, the System determined that he was truly provoking Mo Tiankong. The level was low, and the System issued a warning of coercion.
A formless aura enveloped Zhang Tiannan. In the next moment, Zhang Tiannan was pressed to the ground with his arms and legs spread out. The lobster in his hand, however, managed to escape and lay quietly on the ground.
Because Mo Tiankong was holding onto Zhang Tiannan's clothes, he was almost pulled to the ground with him. Fortunately, he let go in time.
As for Zhang Tiannan, who was lying on the ground, he felt a powerful coercion like the might of the heavens. It was much more terrifying than his grandfather's coercion. This store had a master overseeing it. In the next moment, it rushed towards him. This store had such a master overseeing it. Did they want to force a sale? After a while, he came back to his senses. His face was already pressed to the ground, and he couldn't move at all. It was already a miracle that he didn't piss his pants.
Everything happened too quickly. Before Mo Tiankong could react, a middle-aged man flashed in from outside the door, shouting
"You dare to harm my young master? You're courting death!"
Then, Zhang Tiannan's previous actions were repeated. Pa ji, he was pressed to the ground. When Mo Tiankong came back to his senses, he shuddered and retreated a few steps. The wind from that man's fist had almost swept past him. Thinking about how he had wandered around the entrance of Life and Death Juncture, he was furious.
System, how could you only judge this as a provocation? Cripple him! Fortunately, the System was still a fair and just System. It was still willing to listen to Mo Tiankong's opinion. In the next moment, a bolt of heavenly lightning appeared and shot towards the man.
Looking at the charred figure on the ground, Mo Tiankong's anger mostly dissipated, but he felt uneasy again. After all, he had never even killed a chicken in his life. Although it was normal to kill people in a different world where the strong preyed on the weak, and he didn't do it himself, when it really happened, he still felt extremely uneasy. His mentality hadn't changed yet.
"System, System, you didn't die from the lightning, right?" Mo Tiankong asked nervously.
"You didn't die, but the power of the lightning damaged your internal organs. You just need to rest for three months with some pills."
Hearing that he didn't die, Mo Tiankong still gave him a sigh of relief. He used Appraisal on the middle-aged man.
Name: Zhang Feng
Cultivation: Third Stage Wuzong
Age: 39
Identity: Zhang Clan's guard, in charge of protecting the Zhang Clan's eldest young master
After understanding the other party's identity, Mo Tiankong had the System remove the mental pressure on them. How could the eldest young master of the Zhang Clan not have a guard when he went out to kill demonic beasts?
After the pressure was removed, Zhang Feng had already fallen unconscious. Zhang Tiannan, on the other hand, crawled up and ran to Zhang Feng's side to check on his injuries. His internal organs were injured, but his life wasn't in danger.
When the eldest young master of the Zhang Clan went out, he would definitely have a guard accompanying him. Wuzong level experts were considered to be above average in the Zhang Clan. Losing one of them would truly be painful.
He stood up and walked over to Mo Tiankong with a slightly fawning expression. He had no choice but to be terrified. This store had an expert overseeing it, and his pressure was even more terrifying than his grandfather's. One must know that his grandfather was a rank one Martial King. This store was not to be trifled with.
"Store Manager Mo, do your snacks really have such an effect?"
"Our store's products are all of the best quality. Don't doubt it. We have things that can't be found on the continent."
Didn't they know that the System's products were all of the best quality? Seeing that the System was so awesome, Mo Tiankong instantly straightened his back and spoke with a firm tone.
"But Store Manager Mo, I don't have that much money on me. Can you let me take my guard back first and come back with the money to buy more?" Zhang Tiannan said somewhat embarrassedly. This time, he came out to train. How could he have brought so much money? Furthermore, after hearing Mo Tiankong's solemn promise and the deterrence of the expert in the store, he somewhat believed these snacks. Furthermore, he was eager to break through, so he was willing to give it a try. At most, he would just have to spend some money. If he could break through, then he would make a huge profit.
Sentry Town was a strategic town on the border. There were many martial artists there. Since it was one of the four great clans, one could imagine how much profit there was in this land. It really wasn't lacking in money.
"Sure."
Mo Tiankong also had his own thoughts. In the past, he didn't feel much about the System's products. Today, after seeing the System's strength, there was no need to fear that no one would buy the good stuff. If Zhang Tiannan didn't come back, then he would just blacklist him. In the future, even if he cried and begged the store owner, he wouldn't sell it to him.
"Store Manager Mo, this Rank-9 demon beast is my apology to you. I'll take my leave first." Zhang Tiannan picked up Zhang Feng and prepared to go back to the Zhang family. As for the lobster, he couldn't pick it up. He was only a peak Rank-9 martial artist. Wuzong level martial artists had high physical strength. At the moment, he didn't have any other guards. It was convenient for him to give it to the store owner and form a good relationship. After all, this store had an expert in charge. As the successor of the clan, he still understood the ways of the world.
After jogging for a while, Zhang Tiannan had already run to the entrance of the house. In front of him was a towering signboard with the words "Zhang Mansion" written on it. It faintly emitted a killing intent. It was personally written by Old Man Zhang to deter thieves and thieves. There were also four guards at the entrance. All of them were Martial Masters. Across the entrance, only the four great clans would be able to bring out such a thing. After entering, there was a huge manor with endless pavilions and halls.
After settling Zhang Feng down, Zhang Tiannan ran to the Zhang family head's study. Zhang Tiannan's father, Zhang Yun, was probably in the study at this time.
"Father, I discovered a mysterious store on Haikou Street today."
Zhang Tiannan hurriedly recounted what he saw and heard in the grocery store. He then asked Zhang Yun for money. The four great clans like the Zhang family generally wouldn't allow their direct descendants to be wastrels. Thus, they would only provide them with cultivation resources and a small amount of pocket money. To a certain extent, these people also represented the face of their family.
Zhang Yun listened for about seventy to eighty percent of the story and roughly understood what was going on. There was a newly opened store on Haikou Street. The store currently sold Martial Warrior level snacks that could perfectly increase one's cultivation. There were no poison or side effects at all. Zhang Yun didn't quite believe it. Currently, there were still people on the continent who could refine pills without poison. However, Zhang Yun took the store to heart when he heard that there was an expert whose aura was much stronger than Old Man Zhang's.
Although the aura wasn't the same as pure cultivation, the difference wasn't that big. It was impossible for a low-level martial artist to emit an aura comparable to a high-level martial artist's. Thus, he basically believed that there was an expert in the store. The expert was at least a Martial Emperor. In Sentry Town, the highest level was only a Martial Emperor. After all, although there were many sea monsters, that was only because they bred too quickly.
Their clan's territory had shrunk, causing them to attack human countries. However, there wouldn't be too many high-level monsters. High-level monsters were all intelligent and knew that there were many strong humans stationed along the coastline. Thus, a Martial Emperor was worth befriending and couldn't be offended.
After making up his mind, Zhang Yun casually took out a storage bag from his Space Ring and threw it to Zhang Tiannan. The Space Ring was the best item for storage. It had a lot of space, but only Wuzong level martial artists could use it. This was because Wuzong level martial artists had Mind Power and could slightly communicate with the Space Ring. Moreover, it was expensive. The entire Space Ring was polished from Space Spirit Stone, and the storage bag was made from the leftovers of Space Spirit Stone. A martial artist with a space of less than one cubic meter could use it.
Generally, patriarchs like Zhang Yun, who had some status, basically had dozens of storage bags. After all, if a member of the clan performed a meritorious service, he couldn't just reward them with a pile of Spirit Stones and let them carry them back.
On the other hand, Zhang Tiannan took the storage bag and immediately checked it for a while. There were 120 Spirit Stones in it. Even if he bought a full set of Wangzai snacks, he would still have 20 more. He trotted to the grocery store happily.
