"Soone checking on you again? You can answer the call first. I'm going to check out other things!"
A kind smile could be seen on Song Qincheng's face.
Following that, Chen Xiaobei had an odd feeling. It was as if he was caught red-handed cheating on his partner – feeling embarrassed and excited at the sa ti.
"Hello, honey? Finally, you make ti to call !"
"I have warned you a lot of tis! Do not spout nonsense! I'm not your honey! Do you really think I will call you if my grandpa did not ask
to do so?"
"Grandpa? Is he looking for ?"
"Last ti, you asked my grandpa to look for those extrely rare herb, right? He was inford that a thousand-year-old ginseng root will be auctioned off at Paradise Island. Counting from today, the auction will be held in five days' ti!"
"In five days' ti? Okay! That's great! I'm almost done with my acting job. I'm pretty sure I can spare out so ti to attend the auction!"
"Why do you need such an expensive herb? Do you know that the starting bid of the ginseng root is three hundred million U.S dollars?! That is equivalent to almost two billion RMB!"
"What the hell! That is so damn expensive!"
To his surprise, Chen Xiaobei never thought that a thousand-year-old ginseng root could cost so much! However, it was only logical that it cost so much due to its rarity. Those who could afford to spend on rare herbs like these were so rich that they could buy a country with the money that they had. With that being said, its price would eventually go higher and there would still be people who would purchase it.
"So, now you know that it's expensive! That the starting bid of the ginseng is two billion! According to the practice of Paradise Island, the final price of that ginseng could easily beco three tis more expensive than the original price! It's pointless to travel there if you don't have six billion in your account!"
"What the hell! Six billion!"
Chen Xiaobei was rendered speechless.
"I don't think you have enough cash with you, right? Listen to , if it is not necessary, I think you should give up on buying the ginseng. People like us can never afford to purchase items like that!"
"Do you still rember the pill that you had last ti for breaking through your cultivation? The na of that pill is called the Skybreaking Cultivation Pill. That ginseng is one of the essential ingredients to produce the pill! We would be filled with so much regret if we miss the opportunity to purchase it!"
"That is…"
Of course, Luo Puti rembered Skybreaking Cultivation Pill. This magical pill allowed her to achieve a new level of cultivation within a short period of ti!
"The value of the Skybreaking Cultivation Pill can never be asured by money!"
"If that ginseng is one of the essential ingredients of the Skybreaking Cultivation Pill, we should purchase it no matter how much it costs! You have not achieved a new level of cultivation. With that pill, a lot of unnecessary troubles can be avoided in the future!"
Upon hearing Luo Puti's reply, Chen Xiaobei was touched. Having a warm and kind heart beneath her ice-cold look was one of the reasons why Chen Xiaobei liked Luo Puti so much. Though she had already achieved True Nirvana Stage, she still rembered that Chen Xiaobei had not gone through a new breakthrough in cultivation.
"Let
take care of the money problem if you don't have enough with you…"
Before Luo Puti could finish her sentence, Chen Xiaobei interrupted her.
"Do not worry about the money! I will figure that out!"
"Stop putting on a tough front! How are you going to earn so much money in such a short period of ti? Are you thinking of robbing a bank?"
"Don't you worry! As a man, no matter how poor I am, I will never ask for money from my woman!"
In order not to let Luo Puti advise him, Chen Xiaobei quickly said, "My scene is about to begin! Let's talk later!"
After that, Chen Xiaobei hung up.
"I don't believe that I will be troubled with this money issue!"
....
Every crew mber, actor, and actress were ready to shoot the climactic scene after a short period of preparation. Like a general, Director Feng Yaolun was checking on his people. To him, this whole movie production was like a warfare.
"Everyone! The scene that we are about to film later is the core of the entire movie! It will be perfect if we manage to get this scene right!" Feng Yaolun shouted into a loudspeaker.
"A lot of money would be involved if we fail to get this scene right! The most important is a lot of ti will be wasted as well! I want our production to be played in cinemas during Chinese New Year! People are not going to trust us anymore if we fail to deliver our promise! The so-called most anticipated movie would turn into a huge slap on our faces! Now! Here cos the real test! Are you guys ready?"
"We are ready!"
Everyone from the filming crew replied Feng Yaolun unanimously.
"Ready! Action!"
Following that, Chen Xiaobei and Tang ngwan ran out from their designated spots in their traditional Chinese attire. At the sa ti, a group of villains with combat sabers surrounded them. However, they were just a bunch of extras so Chen Xiaobei and Tang ngwan managed to defeat them easily. After that, the two of them continued to charge forward.
Few scenes later, they finally arrived at the base of the evil boss. At that mont, Zhang Zhongji brought a group of goons with him to stop Chen Xiaobei and Tang ngwan from moving forward.
"Why are you here?!"
Tang ngwan frowned. Her startled expression and the way she looked at Zhang Zhongji was well acted!
"Hmph! You should have known that I will co and seek revenge from the day you rejected ! And that son of a bitch! I will kill him!"
Zhang Zhongji gritted his teeth. His furious look stemd from Tang ngwan's rejection. One had to say that his role as a villain with complex feelings was well acted. Of course, his hatred towards Chen Xiaobei was real! In the movie, his lover was taken away by Chen Xiaobei. In the reality, his face was slapped by Chen Xiaobei and the suppression caused him to lose all the pride that he once had!
Looking at Zhang Zhongji's anger, Chen Xiaobei smirked and said, "Get lost if you don't want to die!"
"Good acting! This is the pride that I want! You are doing very well for not giving a damn about Zhang Zhongji's threat!"
*Swoosh*
Suddenly, Zhang Zhongji took out a combat saber and channeled True Qi to his body secretly!
Sothing was not right!
