Does anyone actually Believes That My Master Is A Mortal? Chapter 40 Borrowing Money
Xianzui Inn.
Second floor.
After the shopkeeper fervently refused,
Chu Yuan gave up on the idea of persuading the shopkeeper to open a branch at the foot of Wayless Sect's mountain.
It wasn't that Chu Yuan wanted to.
He really had no choice.
The shopkeeper got so agitated that he nearly put a knife to his own throat.
That's what made Chu Yuan drop the notion.
Looking at a table full of delicious dishes,
Chu Yuan murmured softly to himself as he ate.
"What a pity. I thought from now on I could co down the mountain to eat every day. This way, the disciples wouldn't have to worry about food and drink..."
The shopkeeper standing by nearly stumbled and fell, taking a deep breath.
He felt lucky that he had been resolute earlier, putting the knife to his throat; otherwise, he might be preparing to open a branch right now.
He would have to serve him every day.
Then what business would he do?
Just wait for the inn to close.
The shopkeeper was imnsely relieved.
Sitting at the table, Chu Yuan didn't think so much. After taking a few bites, he was ready to get straight to the point.
"Shopkeeper, I didn't co here just to drink and chat with you. I have sothing to ask, and then I'll be on my way. I know you're well-inford. If you know sothing, you can't hide it from ."
Chu Yuan said cheerfully, with a friendly and pleasant deanor.
Hearing this,
the shopkeeper imdiately perked up.
He's leaving after asking a question?
Not mooching off his inn and not even spending the night for free?
"Big shot, whatever you want to ask, just ask away! I'll certainly tell all that I know!"
"Even if I don't know, I can ask around for you. My Xianzui Inn is the place with the most inford sources. No matter what the news, as long as I inquire a bit, I'm sure to find out!"
The shopkeeper instantly turned into a fawning lackey, responding with a joking smile.
A stark contrast to his previously exhausted deanor.
"I want to know where I can buy weapons, you know, the weaker kind, and in bulk,"
Chu Yuan put down his chopsticks and slowly said.
Weaker weapons?
Weapons? Are you sure it's not Magical Treasures?
With such status as yours, shouldn't you be dealing with Magical Treasures?
The shopkeeper was taken aback.
Yet Chu Yuan casually waved his hand and said again, "No worries, no worries, take your ti to think. I'm not in a hurry. Hey, waiter, bring so more dishes."
Watching Chu Yuan order a heap of dishes, the smile on the shopkeeper's face instantly vanished.
If he were in the Nascent Soul Realm, and this person before him were a mortal, he'd certainly pull this person's soul out and put it back in, then pull it out and put it back again, sending him through an endless cycle...
He had never seen such a cheaply behaved powerhouse in his life.
Today was quite the eye-opener.
To think he'd seek information from him?
Must be dreaming.
The shopkeeper's eyes darted around, an idea already forming in his mind.
You want a weapon Magical Treasure?
Fine, I'll find you a dragon's den, a tiger's lair, to see if you can leave with your life intact!
The shopkeeper thought inwardly, but on the surface, he said with a smile.
"There! I've got it! You want weapons, right? I know of the perfect place, it'll definitely satisfy you, big shot!"
The shopkeeper's tone was filled with laughter.
It's just that such a laugh.
seed rather sinister.
Chu Yuan, however, did not notice this scene and, raising his eyebrows, asked another question, "Are you sure you thought of it that quickly? What I want is weapons, do you understand? And I need them wholesale, got it?"
The shopkeeper imdiately waved his hand, saying, "Understand, understand, I get it all."
So did this guy really understand?
"So what's the specific information?"
Chu Yuan asked with so perplexity.
"Here's the thing, boss," the shopkeeper spoke with a slightly beguiling tone, "Go east from Silver Moon City until you reach a large, very conspicuous lake. You can't miss it once you're there. Beside that lake, there's a blacksmith shop, and inside lives an old man famous for forging weapons. Whatever type of weapon you want, he has it."
The shopkeeper spoke with a hint of seduction in his voice.
In fact, there was indeed a blacksmith shop beside the lake to the east of Silver Moon City.
But there also lived a hidden expert with a foul temper who, if he t soone fated, might forge a Magical Treasure weapon for them. However, most people who went there would co back empty-handed.
And if soone managed to irritate this hidden expert, they might even lose their life.
That was exactly what he hoped would happen to this shaless Nascent Soul Realm individual.
Given this guy's lack of sha, a conflict was bound to arise.
If this guy happened to be smacked to death accidentally, the shopkeeper would be so happy he'd jump with joy on the spot.
Chu Yuan, sitting to one side, had no clue about these complicated twists and turns.
After listening to the shopkeeper, he nodded thoughtfully.
"That's all well and good, but shopkeeper, it's an ergency, lend so gold to use. I'm a bit short on cash, afraid I won't be able to purchase anything," Chu Yuan said slowly.
He figured that weapons certainly couldn't be as cheap as books.
He had spent eight taels on those books before.
Considering the weight of weapons, eight taels would probably be hard even for a pile of scrap tal.
He didn't have much money on him.
He surely couldn't use his clothes to settle the debt, could he?
The shopkeeper reluctantly showed a smile and waved his hand, "It's no big deal, it's just gold, right? How much do you need? Consider it my sponsorship, boss."
Spend so gold to make this person disappear forever.
The shopkeeper thought, absolutely worth it!
When Chu Yuan heard the shopkeeper's agreent, his eyes lit up once again.
"Then thank you very much, how about you lend a million taels of gold first?"
"A million?? Gold???"
"No? Then let's make a discount, nine hundred ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine taels then."
"Boss, is your math okay??"
"It's fine, no problems at all."
"How about this, boss," the shopkeeper proposed, "you now slap everyone in this city to death with one palm, then say I did it, wait for the Mortal Great Zhou to issue a bounty, then kill and claim the reward. That might get you that much money."
"Not a bad idea, I think it's feasible, and doing so, all your money right now would be mine as well, plus the bounty, killing two birds with one stone, not bad, not bad..."
"..."
In the end, after so back-and-forth between Chu Yuan and the shopkeeper,
the shopkeeper only gave Chu Yuan a hundred thousand taels of gold and a pile of silk...
And so,
a strange scene unfolded.
Chu Yuan, without a Storage Magical Treasure, carried a giant treasure chest and bore a vast amount of silk on his back.
Looking at his own attire, Chu Yuan also found it rather peculiar.
Indeed, it corroborated that saying.
Even though I, Chu Yuan, am holding a Golden Treasure Chest and bearing silk, I'm still invincible in this world...
...
