Cultivation World 21 Make a Big Money
Source Instrument Workshop.
The steward caught a glimpse of Mei Miaoyan from the Bixiao Sect walking in, and hurriedly pushed aside the receptionist to greet her personally.
"Fairy Mei, how are you? Are you here today to buy some handy magic tools or to sell animal bones, scales and toes?" The steward looked attentive.
Fairy Mei is a regular customer of the store.
He knew that the Bixiao Sect was housed in the nearby Bitao Inn.
While the disciples of the Bixiao Sect were waiting for the auction, they often went to the nearby Cloud Forest to train and sold the materials they obtained nearby. Their weapon workshop was close to the auction.
Of course, there will inevitably be some losses during training. Fairy Mei often buys magical instruments for other disciples and is also a big customer of the store.
Mei Miaoyan chuckled: "Why can't I have a third purpose?"
The steward was stunned for a moment, then his smile deepened: "Of course, Fairy Mei, please come this way."
He took Mei Miaoyan to the next compartment, which was soundproofed, so they didn't have to worry about being detected by others.
Mei Miaoyan sat down, twisted a strand of hair in her hand and played with it, saying casually, "Yuanshengqifang is so big, but I've been here several times and haven't seen any space gourds in the store."
"Haha, compared to those old-fashioned workshops, Yuansheng Instrument Shop is still a bit young, so we can't always match their supply of some goods." The manager laughed and said, "If Fairy Mei wants a space gourd, give me a few days and I will definitely find it for you."
Mei Miaoyan glanced at him and said, "You don't have to frame me. I was a step too slow, wasn't I?"
The steward laughed awkwardly twice.
It’s his fault for not having such foresight. When he first heard about the space gourd, he just thought it was an ordinary space magic weapon, and a lower-grade yellow one at that. Isn’t it the same as the Qiankun bag?
He didn't rush to grab a space gourd to take a look.
Who would have thought that in just a month or two, the gourd had reached a point where he could not reach it. He had used all his connections but still could not get a space gourd back.
Nowadays, any weapon shop that has a space gourd can easily attract 30% of its customers, and all the customer traffic of his Yuansheng Weapon Shop has been snatched away.
There are some weapon shops that use fake products as a gimmick. Some of them do it knowingly, while others make a mistake and take advantage of it. Those in charge are too disdainful to do it for fear of damaging Yuansheng's reputation.
Now that Fairy Mei has come to ask, he must try his best to find one.
Fairy Mei has the entire Bixiao Sect's customer base behind her. Losing her is not as simple as losing a customer.
As the steward was thinking about it, he saw Mei Miaoyan take out a gourd from the Qiankun bag in her sleeve.
The steward's eyes widened: "What is this?"
Mei Miaoyan said, "This is true. He has never acknowledged the Lord."
"May I take a look at it?"
"Please."
The steward held the small gourd in his hand. He had some skills and had been a steward for so many years, so he had the ability to identify things. After looking at it carefully, he immediately confirmed that it should not be fake.
"This is true. Fairy Mei's move... could it be that she wants to sell this gourd to us?"
Mei Miaoyan pursed her lips and acted embarrassed. "You know, we've bought a lot of magical instruments these days, so we're really short on cash. But I happened to have my eye on a set of Liuxian skirts. With so many fairies coming this time, I don't have much confidence, so I just wanted to have as many spirit stones as possible."
The steward's mind became active: "Where did Fairy Mei get this gourd?"
Mei Miaoyan was furious: "What? Are you still afraid that I stole it?"
The steward hurriedly said: "How dare I? I just thought that if the fairy has a channel, why not introduce them? As a middleman, it will naturally be helpful."
Mei Miaoyan paused, as if deep in thought, before saying, "This was given to me by one of my admirers. He said he bought it in a secret place. He had some spare money at the time, and thought the gourds looked cute, so he bought a few to curry my favor. It's been so long, how can I remember who sold them to me?"
The steward sighed, what a pity.
But after hearing "how many have you bought", he perked up and asked, "How many do you have left, fairy? I'll buy them all and I'll give you a good price."
Mei Miaoyan refused, saying that she just wanted to sell it for cash flow.
The manager knew very well that Fairy Mei wanted to wait for the price of the space gourd to increase again so that she could sell more of it later.
He wants to too!
So they tried their best to deceive people, not only buying at the current high price, but also adding many preferential chips.
"Well, since we've had such a pleasant cooperation in the past, I'm giving you all these gourds."
Mei Miaoyan finally gave in and sold the five space gourds in her hand for 12,000 spirit stones.
The manager felt a bit painful, but he looked relieved. The price was a bit high, but there were still many people who needed space gourds, so he could get a higher price by reselling it.
After the two sides communicated, the manager was satisfied and had the space gourd placed on the container.
Mei Miaoyan also went back with a huge sum of money in her hand, feeling satisfied.

Bi Tao Inn.
Liu Binhong was invited to the room of other sect disciples, and as soon as he entered the door, he was teased.
"It's rare that the busy Liu is free. When I asked you to come some time ago, you were either taking your junior brothers and sisters out for training or staying in your room to practice. That's why I can't see you until today."
Liu Binhong smiled apologetically.
The person who invited him here immediately defended him, saying, "This time is different. As the leading disciple, Senior Brother Liu must be strict with himself. If he often comes out to chat with us, how will he behave in front of the younger brothers and sisters?"
"You are the one who plays the good guy, and we are the ones who are the villains."
"That's right! When we were studying in the same courtyard, Senior Brother Liu was the most diligent and hardworking. It's not like we don't know him."
"Hahaha, I really blame him. Why do we have to call him again and again?"
Everyone in the room laughed at once. Although they belonged to different sects, they had some friendship among themselves.
Liu Binhong sat down and explained the reasons for his several refusals. He was indeed very busy and mainly wanted to save up more spirit stones before the auction started.
He diverted the conversation, and several people immediately responded, "Ah, indeed, this auction is so grand that several top immortal sects have sent Jindan disciples to bid for it. I'm afraid we won't be able to hope for the items that will be auctioned later."
"Forget about the rest. Even if we were given this opportunity, would we really have to empty our sect's savings to buy it?"
"I'm interested in the first few materials. The 500-year-old Soul-Devouring Grass is rare..."
Liu Binhong listened quietly, holding the teacup in his hand, and occasionally agreed.
It was not until he mentioned the Space Gourd, which had recently gained great fame, that he raised his eyebrows and asked, "You want to take a photo of the Space Gourd?"
Someone sighed and said, "Although this gourd is not big, only one cubic meter, the anti-theft mark is really powerful. If you can prepare one and put important life-saving things in it, you won't have to worry about others robbing you."
"Who says it's not? But I went to several weapon shops and they all said they had no stock. I can only try hard at the auction."
"The weapons sold in the workshops out there are real and fake. Luckily you didn't buy any."
"How do you say that?"
"Oh, I bought one a few days ago. I didn't know whether the gourd was real or fake, so I was cheated out of more than 2,000 spirit stones. I hate myself so much. Now I don't trust any weapon workshop outside. I only trust the products of Wanxiang Building. They must be genuine."
"I just don't know how many people will compete with me for a gourd. I hope the price won't be too high. I still want to save money to buy two bottles of pills."
Seeing that several people looked worried, Liu Binhong slowly took out a gourd and placed it on the table.
"Young Master Liu!!!"
"Where did you get the gourd?"
Several people's attention was instantly drawn over, and several hands reached out to grab this one.
This was taken out by Liu Binhong. They knew that Liu Binhong must have confirmed its authenticity, so they all wanted to take a closer look at what the real gourd looked like.
Liu Binhong couldn't hide the smile on his face. He took out a few more gourds, one for each person in the room: "Don't fight over it. Everyone has a share."
Seeing him take out so many things at once, several people were stunned for a moment: "Do you know the craftsman who made this gourd?"
"I consider him an acquaintance. I originally thought he was just an ordinary weapon master... Well, before we came to Hualuo City, our Bixiao Sect was robbed. Our Qiankun bags were all taken away, and we almost couldn't come here."
The person who had spoken for Liu Binhong earlier nodded and said, "He told me about this when he came here."
Liu Binhong paused, remembering that he had only mentioned it briefly at the time and didn't say much, and then he continued.
Liu Binhong added a touch of fiction to his story of meeting Xie Yunsui on the road, saying, "...Although this spatial gourd is a low-grade yellow-level one, it's really cheap. We all bought one. When I heard he was short of spirit stones, I asked Elder Xin if I could order more gourds to replace his Qiankun bag. The sect replied that it was possible, so I immediately ordered a thousand gourds from him."
"One thousand..."
Several people gasped.
Then the next second they surrounded Liu Binhong.
“I never thought that after all these twists and turns, my biggest connection would be right next to me!”
"Good brother! Since we once studied together and lived in the same courtyard, could you give me some? Not much, not much, just one hundred!"
"Don't worry! We will never let you suffer any loss. I will send a letter back and ask the elders to allocate some funds..."
A barely perceptible smile appeared on Liu Binhong's lips.
These fellow practitioners had a good relationship with him, and he didn't want to deceive them, but his plan still required the help of the sects behind them.
Xie Yunsui said it well. The space gourds were sold at such a high price. If only their Bixiao Sect took back so many gourds in the end, it would be too conspicuous. However, as long as the risks were shared equally, no one would be able to do anything to the Bixiao Sect in the end.
As compensation, Liu Binhong negotiated a price for them that was half of the current general price, meaning one gourd only cost one thousand spirit stones.
When the sects behind these people received the news, they felt that they had taken advantage of the Bixiao Sect.
Of course, his men also moved very quickly to prepare the spirit stones, fearing that they would be a step late, and they also told their disciples not to spread the news.
-
"My Bixiao Sect kept two hundred gourds, and sold the other eight hundred to them."
"Hiss, wouldn't that mean a net profit of 800,000?"
Zhu Ming exclaimed in admiration and looked at Xie Yunsui with envy.
Xie Yunsui: "I'd also like to thank the brothers and sisters from Bixiao for helping me out. These 100,000 spirit stones are just hard work fees, right?"
Liu Binhong stopped him: "You have already given those 200 gourds to my Bixiao Sect for free. According to the price of our transaction, even if you gave us 200,000 for free, how can we ask for these spirit stones from you?"
Xie Yunsui smiled and said, "Brother Liu, don't be so quick to refuse. I'll need you to find more people to cooperate with my plan later. These 100,000 will be useful."
In the end, Liu Binhong couldn't refuse.
After the handover with the Bixiao Sect was completed, Xie Yunsui and Ling Xiyuan turned to visit Song Lehe.
The Pavilion Master finally arrived in Hualuo City.
With the support of the powerful Yuanying, Xie Yunsui was finally able to "show his face".
"I've already reserved a spot at the exchange, so I can set up my stall there tomorrow." Ling Xiyuan said, "And Venerable Ling Ye currently resides in..."
Xie Yunsui walked side by side with him, and seeing that his face was tense, he hooked his finger and held it.
Ling Xiyuan paused and glanced sideways with confusion in his eyes.
Xie Yunsui smiled and said, "Don't be so nervous. We can deal with any problem we encounter. Besides, we just made a big profit. We should be happy."
Ling Xiyuan: “…”
He sighed, "You have a good attitude. After your identity was exposed, how could you be so relaxed now?"
"Things may not be that bad. Look at it from a positive perspective. We came here to make a name for ourselves, and now we've easily achieved half of our goal. Isn't this worth celebrating?"
Ling Xiyuan was infected by his relaxed state, his brows relaxed, and he couldn't help but smile.
"Well, you always manage to turn danger into safety. I hope it will be the same this time."
