Alchemy genius Sang Jin was forced to her death by various sects after her master ascended. She was reborn on another unfamiliar continent.
During a year of disaster and famine, she became th...
Therefore, if a cultivator in the same Jindan stage wants to kill him, he must first destroy his robes.
"Hey, I didn't realize you had such a sinister streak," Sang Jin said. This was a phrase she had learned from her master.
"He treated you badly, I don't like it." Li Jingyu pointed at the guy just now.
By this time, the clerk had also realized that this young man was in cahoots with the beggar. This had offended his financial sponsor. It was very likely that this was his future employer. His job might be in jeopardy.
"Young master, I didn't recognize a great man. Please be magnanimous and forgive me this time." The waiter brought out a cup of tea and knelt down to beg for mercy.
Li Jingyu ignored him and refused to take his tea. The clerk knelt there until the owner of the clothing store arrived.
"How did this guy offend the young master?" Seeing this, the shopkeeper whispered in the boss's ear and told him what had just happened when the young guy looked down on the man.
Hey, he'd told this guy several times before. Don't do things like that. Unfortunately, this guy was a distant relative of the boss.
If he had not been the shopkeeper hired by the young lady herself, he would have been fired by the current boss long ago.
"Get out of here!" After hearing this, the shop owner asked the shopkeeper to pay the clerk his wages and let him go.
The guy still had some regrets, but he had to go. There was no place for him here anymore.
"How much silver does this shop cost?" Li Jingyu asked the price as soon as he came up.
"My shop makes over a hundred taels of silver every month. I won't sell it for less than that." The owner of the clothing shop pointed to two with his fingers. There was no way his shop could make a profit of over a hundred taels of silver a month; he was just trying to raise the price a little.
His shop could make a profit of fifty taels a month, which was considered the best. Anyway, it wasn't a loss. So he just kept running it. It wasn't his anyway; it was his wife's dowry shop.
"Two hundred taels?" Sang Jin thought this boss was a really good person. Selling it so cheaply.
"My dear girl, my shop is a big shop in the capital. I want two thousand taels." said the owner of the clothing shop.
This boss is interesting. He looked at Sang Jin, who was wearing patched clothes, and didn't order any dishes according to the dish.
"Can I pay with spirit stones?" Li Jingyu asked again.
"Of course." said the clothing store owner.
"Then will twenty spirit stones be enough?" Immortal cultivators usually used spirit stones as currency. So, after arriving in the Southern Wilderness Continent, Li Jingyu hadn't yet inquired about the value of a spirit stone in the mortal world.
The owner of the clothing store widened his eyes, as if he had misheard. What? This person said he would give him 20 spirit stones to buy his shop.
One Spirit Stone could be exchanged for one thousand taels of silver. Twenty pieces... twenty thousand.
"Yes, yes. Why not? But most people rarely exchange spirit stones. Spirit stones are used for cultivation." He saw that the young man in front of him was not very old, so he was probably the son of a wealthy family. He was so generous.
"Young master, you absolutely cannot do this. One spirit stone can be exchanged for one thousand taels of silver. One tael of silver is enough for an ordinary family's living expenses for a month. For a farmer, one tael of silver is enough for a year." The owner of the clothing store could no longer bear it and spoke.
This young man probably doesn't know the exchange rate between gold and silver. This delicate and tender-skinned young man is obviously a young man who has never suffered any hardship.
But he couldn't really buy a shop worth two thousand taels for twenty thousand taels. That would be too cruel. He couldn't do such a thing.
"Shopkeeper Liu, I think you miss home." The owner of the clothing store glared at Shopkeeper Liu fiercely.
"I... this..." Shopkeeper Liu knew that if he did this, the young man would probably not buy it. The boss would kick him out. But he couldn't help it.
If he really got kicked out by his boss, his wife wouldn't know how to get angry with him. After all, at his age, with elderly parents and young children to support, it wouldn't be easy to find a job that pays him two taels of silver a month. He was just impulsive. Impulsive.
"That's two spirit stones. I'll buy it." Li Jingyu still insisted on buying the shop.
"Well, I'll write the receipt right away." The owner of the clothing store didn't get any more benefits, but he wouldn't feel bad about the spirit stones. After all, these were two spirit stones.
Spiritual stones are precious. Even exchanging them for silver or money might not be enough. It turns out that those who practice cultivation are truly wealthy.
The shop was bought, and Liu was still the shopkeeper. His wages also increased from two taels of silver to five taels of silver.
In fact, this little bit of money was nothing to Li Jingyu, but to Liu the shopkeeper, it was a blessing from heaven. He also had money to send his son to school.
"The shop is for you. Take your pick of clothes," Li Jingyu said generously. He was out of money anyway, so he might as well go hunt monsters and exchange them for spirit stones.
"Then I won't hold back. Boss, I want that one, that one, and that one. Make a set of them all to my measurements. And please pack all the others for me." Sang Jin walked around and found that there were no children's clothes here. They were all for adults. So she picked out a few styles and asked the shop to make them right away.
"These clothes will not be ready until the day after tomorrow. I have packed everything the boss needs just now." In the time it takes to stick an incense stick, Shopkeeper Liu has arranged everything.
"That means I still have no clothes to wear." Sang Jin frowned.
"I'll go to other shops right away to buy some clothes that you can wear." Shopkeeper Liu was a discerning man. He knew that the young master would listen to the patchwork girl in front of him.
"That's great. We'll wait for you here. This is a spirit stone. Manager Liu, please help me exchange it for silver notes and some small change at the bank." Sang Jin said.
There were originally three clerks in the tailor shop. After one was driven away, there were still two left. Manager Liu took one of the clerks, grabbed the box of silver, and left. He had finally saved his job. He'd even gotten a monthly raise, which was great.
After learning about the exchange rate of spirit stones in the Southern Wilderness Continent, Sang Jin felt sorry for the spirit stone she had just lost when she entered the city gate. It turned out that spirit stones were still so valuable in the mortal world.
By the time Shopkeeper Liu returned the silver, it was already dark. Sang Jin went to the back room of the shop to change into new clothes. The clothes Shopkeeper Liu had picked out were quite lovely. He even bought her three sets at once.
With money, it would be easier to live in the mortal world. After Sang Jin explained the matter of the clothing store to Manager Liu, she dragged Li Jingyu to find an inn.
"This Yansha City is really strange. Why are the dining areas separated from the accommodations?" Sang Jin complained. It would be much more convenient if the restaurant and the inn could be combined.
"Young master, do you still want to stay in this hotel? If you hesitate any longer, I'm afraid the last upper room will be sold out." The shopkeeper reminded Sang Jin and the others.
"Brother, let's stay here. Let's just make do with it tonight." Sang Jin thought quickly and called Li Jingyu "brother".
They really look like a pair of siblings.
