OMG! I Transmigrated into Four Books at the Same Time! Chapter 384 - 364: Time Tower Level 1
It seems to make sense, Xiao Tong nods continuously as she listens.
It’s just a lease, the ownership stays with the mall, this operation should not be too problematic.
However... now Xiao Tong always stays extra cautious with Shi Nian’s proposals.
After carefully considering it over and over, she suddenly chuckles, "Host, I can rent it to you. But. I have a little condition, oh. The rent needs to be paid upfront, and if you can’t use the Ti Tower, I won’t refund the rent."
Shi Nian: "???"
She looks at Xiao Tong in shock.
"It hasn’t been that long! Xiao Tong, you’ve turned evil," Shi Nian says with a broken heart.
Xiao Tong becos even more pleased with herself, "This is called being shrewd! Just tell if you agree or not, Host."
The conditions for using the Ti Tower are very harsh; basically, no one could succeed.
Shi Nian most likely would not make it either.
Yet she still managed to think of such a good thod to make a buck off the Host!
She, Xiao Tong, is truly a simple and unremarkable business genius.
Shi Nian grits her teeth, looking like she’s gone through a fierce ntal struggle, "I can pay the Crystal Stones upfront. But you also said it - the Ti Tower is almost impossible to control, which ans, you’re likely to just pocket a bunch of Crystal Stones for nothing, right?"
Xiao Tong nods self-satisfactorily.
Yes, that’s right.
That’s where her brilliance shines.
Shi Nian shows a pitiful expression, "But look at , I’m so poor right now, and I owe you so much debt. If I lose a large sum of money for nothing, I might as well not live."
While saying that, Shi Nian covers her eyes, crying sobbingly, "Xiao Tong, I thought we had beco friends. But in the end, you just want my Immortal Crystals. What about all the affection over the years? And the true feelings I’ve given you?"
Shi Nian’s face is unseen, her shoulders shaking continuously.
Xiao Tong feels increasingly guilty watching her.
Right.
It’s justified to swindle an enemy’s money. But it feels sowhat wrong to swindle one’s own people...
"You... stop crying," Xiao Tong says in a fluster, "At worst, I’ll give you a discount?"
"Really?" Shi Nian looks at her with tearful eyes.
Xiao Tong quickly nods, "Given your current situation, renting the first layer should be enough. Renting the first layer for a year, I’ll only charge you 100,000 Top-grade Immortal Crystals, how about that?"
At this price, Shi Nian can totally afford it now.
With the Ti Tower’s capabilities, if put out there, people would probably fight over it even if the price were ten tis higher.
"100,000 Top-grade Immortal Crystals, if it’s 100% certain I can use it, then indeed, it’s not expensive," Shi Nian says with a choked voice, "But... the odds of the Ti Tower being usable by are too small, these 100,000 Immortal Crystals are likely to go to waste. Wuuu, my life is so hard, I regard you as my best friend, yet you only have eyes for Crystal Stones from my pocket..."
As Shi Nian wails to the heavens, Xiao Tong feels even guiltier, cautiously saying, "Then how about, for your first use, I give you a discount, 50,000 sound good?"
"Our friendship is only worth this little discount?" Shi Nian says with tears in her eyes.
Xiao Tong feels embarrassed, "Really can’t go any lower."
Seeing her like this, Shi Nian understands.
50,000 is indeed the lowest.
She calmly wipes away her tears and says, "Alright, then it’s 50,000."
Xiao Tong: "???"
Wait, how did you calm down so quickly?
There’s sothing off here.
"Xiao Tong, bring it out now." Shi Nian is already urging.
Xiao Tong looks at her suspiciously but still deems it more likely that she’ll end up profiting, so she takes the Ti Tower out.
The Ti Tower has heaven-defying abilities, but outwardly, it’s quite ordinary-looking, showing no signs of being special.
"Inject the Immortal Spirit Power into the Ti Tower, and if you can control it, then control it; if not, there’s nothing I can do," Xiao Tong says irresponsibly.
Shi Nian is also sowhat nervous.
This ti, she really is going all in with the gamble.
But for the sake of her little master uncle, she just has to bet this round.
Shi Nian picked up the Ti Tower and suddenly stood up to walk outside.
"Host, where are you going?" Xiao Tong asked curiously.
"Casting a spell!" Shi Nian declared decisively.
She held the Ti Tower and went to the secret room where Qing Yi and Lin Lei were cultivating.
Seeing her arrive, Qing Yi and Lin Lei quickly stopped what they were doing.
Shi Nian walked over with a grave expression, just as Qing Yi was about to say sothing.
Suddenly, Shi Nian stretched out her hand and firmly grabbed a handful of hair from the top of Qing Yi’s head!
Qing Yi: "???"
That wasn’t enough.
Shi Nian then went over to Lin Lei and grabbed a handful of hair from the top of his head as well!
Qing Yi and Lin Lei looked at each other, perplexed.
"Co on, both of you silently pray for in your hearts. Just wish for my heart’s desires to be fulfilled and success to co swiftly," Shi Nian urged. "Quick, silently pray in your hearts."
Qing Yi and Lin Lei hurriedly did as told.
Seeing them take it seriously, Shi Nian felt reassured.
Excellent.
Even if she managed to borrow a bit of Long Aotian and Feng Aotian’s luck this ti, her chances of success would greatly increase.
"Keep praying, don’t stop," Shi Nian instructed them before returning to her own secret room.
She took a deep breath, activated the Immortal Spirit Qi, and directly channeled it into the Ti Tower.
Could it work?
Shi Nian was so nervous she almost didn’t dare to breathe.
Xiao Tong couldn’t help but stare intently.
She couldn’t clearly tell whether she hoped for Shi Nian’s success or not.
The Immortal Spirit Qi circled around the Ti Tower, and then, all of a sudden, shot straight to the top of the tower.
Accompanied by the bead at the top of the tower lighting up, the entire body of the tower began to glow.
The next mont, Shi Nian felt as if she had received so divine inspiration; her body, uncontrollably, flew towards the Ti Tower and actually entered inside it.
Xiao Tong was stupefied.
Is this... success... did it work?
F*ck!
Of course it worked!
Didn’t you see she already went in?!
Xiao Tong couldn’t help but beat her chest and stomp her feet, wondering if the luck of this child of fortune was so easily harnessed – Shi Nian actually managed to make it happen?
Wuu wuu wuu, just for fifty thousand Top-grade Crystal Stones, she rented it to Shi Nian for a year.
What a loss, she took a big loss this ti.
Xiao Tong made up her mind.
Next ti, no matter what strange and curious proposals Shi Nian made, she would not listen to any of them!
Feeling dejected, Xiao Tong still entered the tower.
The first floor of the Ti Tower.
Shi Nian was truly having fun exploring with curiosity.
With a single thought, a huge palace appeared in this void space, and with another thought, a river and slopes appeared in the distance. Shi Nian even tried to manifest the mountain her dwelling was situated on, and for a mont, it was hard to tell the real from the fabricated.
Inside this Ti Tower, she had powers like those of a divine being.
And this was just her having temporary control – if she could make the Ti Tower accept her as its master...
Shi Nian didn’t dare to contemplate further; she would beco such a lively and cheerful girl.
"Xiao Tong." Seeing Xiao Tong, Shi Nian began to snicker. "This first level of the Ti Tower seems to accommodate five people."
Xiao Tong had a mournful face: "Yes. Ten years in here is only one year outside, and it can be used by five people at the sa ti. Fifty thousand Immortal Crystals, it’s indeed very expensive."
