Chapter 328: Chapter 0255: Finding an Opportunity that Benefits Him Chapter 328: Chapter 0255: Finding an Opportunity that Benefits Him Chapter 0255 Finding the Opportunity Advantageous to Him
The comrcial street doesn’t have many stores, only a dozen or so, each with a smaller storefront. However, they sell everything, all the items and treasures that a cultivator might need. The Ape King nad all sorts of things like monster at, spirit vegetables, Spiritual Grains, etc., and they can all be found here. The problem, though, lies in the money.
There are only two acceptable currencies for trade here: one is spirit stones, and the other is Danding dicine. And because it’s difficult to evaluate the quality of Danding dicine, spirit stones are more popular.
Qi Tian made so inquiries about the items that the bearded man demanded, and found out that they would cost around ten spirit stones. It didn’t seem like much, Qi Tian could certainly afford it, but just because he could afford it didn’t an he would spend it.
Firstly, Qi Tian didn’t know why Sun Xiaotian, the Ape King, ca to this place and how long he intended to stay. If it were only for two or three days, or even five, Qi Tian could manage. But if it extended to three or five months, no matter how many spirit stones Qi Tian had, he wouldn’t be able to support it.
Secondly, even if Qi Tian could support it, let’s not forget that this place is a gathering spot for thousands of Foundation Establishnt stage cultivators, and half-step Golden Core stage cultivators like Sun Xiaotian and Xu Qiang. Would they just watch as Qi Tian took out ten spirit stones every day to purchase all sorts of logistic materials? Wouldn’t they ask Qi Tian where he got his spirit stones? Wouldn’t they try to rob Qi Tian? Wouldn’t they take away Qi Tian’s storage rings and storage bags?
Qi Tian was in a predicant. The bearded man really put Qi Tian in the hot seat, not caring about him at all. Regardless of whether Qi Tian complied with his request to buy the logistic items, it wouldn’t benefit Qi Tian in any way and would cause a major blow to his wealth.
Just as Qi Tian was figuring out how to complete the bearded man’s purchasing task without attracting the attention of Sun Xiaotian towards his storage bag, two Foundation Establishnt stage cultivators ca over and grabbed his arms suddenly.
Qi Tian’s face changed slightly. These were two late Foundation Establishnt stage powerhouses, dealing with one of them would be difficult for Qi Tian, let alone two. “Who are you? What do you want? I would advise you to release . If you irritate the Ape King, you would be light off to be smacked to death with a casual slap.”
One of the late Foundation Establishnt stage cultivators snorted coldly and said, “Kid, don’t act tough. Don’t think that because the Ape King is backing you, we wouldn’t dare to do anything to you. Here, the Ape King may protect you, but we wouldn’t touch you. You’d better hope that you never leave this basin, or else, this day next year would be the anniversary of your death.”
After warning Qi Tian, the two late Foundation Establishnt stage cultivators released Qi Tian and went their way, swaggering off.
Qi Tian’s face was grave. He was the innocent bystander caught in the crossfire. The two late Foundation Establishnt stage cultivators were obviously targeting Sun Xiaotian, but they couldn’t afford to provoke him, so they took out their anger on Qi Tian, the “follower.”
Qi Tian knew that his situation was becoming increasingly dangerous. He needs to be more careful with his words and actions in the future. But this can be put aside for now. The task at hand was to purchase the logistics required by the bearded man.
Qi Tian took out so spirit stones and so random Danding dicine, purchased all of the logistical items that the bearded man had requested, and then returned to the silver-roofed tent. He handed over the monster at, spirit vegetables, and spirit fruit to the bearded man.
The bearded man grinned and accepted all the supplies subtly, then said lightly, “You did well today. Keep it up every day, don’t make remind you.”
The bearded man then turned and went into the silver-roofed tent. The two Foundation Establishnt stage cultivators responsible for maintaining order walked up with smiles, saying, “You’re in charge of providing for all of us, not just the Ape King. You can’t ignore us. What do you plan for us to eat? To drink? Hand it over.”
Annoyance flashed in Qi Tian’s eyes, but he still took out a porcelain bottle and tossed it to them, saying, “This is for you.”
One of the Foundation Establishnt stage cultivators took the porcelain bottle, opened it, and saw it was filled with common Grain Avoidance Pills. He beca annoyed imdiately, saying, “Kid, what do you an by this? You get monster at, or spirit vegetables, and spirit fruits for the Ape King, and we get these worthless Grain Avoidance Pills like beggars?”
Qi Tian said, “What’s the situation, don’t you know? Don’t beat around the bush, it’s good enough that you have Grain Avoidance Pills. If you’re not satisfied with the pills, you can return them to . I can save so money.”
“Kid, is this your attitude?” Another Foundation Establishnt stage cultivator stared at Qi Tian ominously, saying, “There aren’t just a few people in the world that you can’t afford to offend. It’s not only the Ape King, there’s also others. So, you’re certain you’ll give us these few Grain Avoidance Pills?”
Qi Tian said, “You want to swap jobs with ? I can guarantee you, if you’re willing to swap, I wouldn’t ask for anything else from you. How about it?”
Those two Foundation Establishnt stage cultivators were certainly not fools. They’d only pull money out of their own pockets to support Sun Xiaotian and his group if they were stuffed to the brim. But to simply back off was unacceptable. Why could Sun Xiaotian exploit Qi Tian so blatantly while they couldn’t? “Kid, you’ve got guts. Hope you won’t regret it in the future.”
