Chapter 107 Too Many Rich People
The process of the skills competition is still unknown, but in the past, the competition would only start after the exchange meeting was over.
"Let's just go shopping for the next two days. If there's anything we need, we can buy it."
Bai Mengmeng spoke to everyone.
But at the same time, I was silently complaining in my heart that things here are so expensive and I probably can’t afford to buy them.
They walked forward along the passage. This exhibition area was divided into several areas according to different sects, and some of them even had very exquisite sheds.
Some people inside were selling their own sect's specialties, and some sects even started recruiting independent cultivators.
"The good spots here are all occupied by the big sects," Sun Emma introduced, pointing to an empty space next to a toilet in the distance. "That place is empty, but some private stalls or small sects set up stalls there. You can go there if you want to buy something."
"We don't have anything to buy." Bai Mengmeng shook her head: "We came here just to broaden our horizons and take a look."
"So, do you want to buy some skincare products? That beautiful stall belongs to Wanhua Valley."
Bai Mengmeng has also read a lot of forum posts and has a certain understanding of Wanhua Valley. It is a sect where many medical practitioners and alchemists gather.
I heard that Wanhua Valley was a foundation-building alchemy sect, with the sect leader introducing a Jindan-stage medical cultivator whose talent had been improved twice. The name alone suggested that this sect was incredibly lucrative, making it the most recognized and wealthy sect in the entire cultivation world.
Even the male protagonist's Zhan Peng is made up of many flowers, and there are a large number of very technological shelves inside, which display the specialties of Wanhua Valley.
As people get closer, the sound of advertisements floats over.
"The flower mask awakens the vitality of the skin."
"Wanhua facial essence, pure plant extracts, beautifies and removes wrinkles."
Yes, Wanhua Valley no longer sells medicine, but has started selling skin care products.
It is now a leading brand in the skin care industry.
Bai Mengmeng had heard of it when she was a doctor, but it was extremely expensive and she usually couldn't bear to spend money on it. She didn't expect that this thing was actually created by a cultivator. No wonder it had such a good effect.
"Are you sure you don't want to buy it? There are discounts if you buy it here." Sun Emma picked up two bottles of facial cleanser.
Bai Mengmeng walked closer and took a look. He found that the extra zeros after the price made him dizzy, so he quickly shook his head: "It's a bit expensive."
Liangcha took out a plastic bag filled with money.
Bai Mengmeng: "That's not necessary..."
Although her heart was warm, Bai Mengmeng was in a difficult position to speak. This bag of money had both small and large amounts, and it was simply not enough...
"Brother, please buy me an ice cream. I want to buy an ice cream!" Huaguduo smiled flatteringly.
“…”
Liangcha was as deaf as if he didn't hear anything.
Flower bud: ...
Sure enough, the eldest brother is really partial!
After leaving Wanhua Valley, the booth next to it is the booth of the world's number one sect, the Silver Sword Sect.
There was a man in a suit inside, live streaming on his mobile phone.
"Welcome everyone to my livestream. Our Silver Sword Toy Company will be releasing the long-awaited blind box today. The Silver Sword babies inside are all random. There are fourteen different types in total. The big-nosed baby and the anti-inflammatory baby are rare. Let me open a blind box for you to see..."
Bai Mengmeng's expression suddenly became strange. "Wasn't it this man during the test just now? He said he was in a hurry and had something urgent to do. Could this urgent matter be that he came here with his phone to livestream and sell goods?"
I opened my eyes wide and took a look. I found that Mitt's toys were so weird and ugly. No wonder there were so few people at this stall. Who would buy something so ugly?
"Can the Silver Sword Sect make money selling toys like this?"
Sun Emma casually explained, "They don't make money from this at all. With such a high martial arts value, they can make a lot of money from any commission. I heard that this toy company was set up by the headmaster's wife. They don't have anything else to sell in such a large exhibition hall, so they can only put toys up there."
"If you have money, you can do whatever you want!"
Turning another corner, Sun Emma suddenly smiled: "Benniu Gate, that's their exhibition hall!"
Bull Run? It sounds very simple and down-to-earth.
Thousands of years ago, when the spiritual energy had not yet dried up, the Benniu Sect focused on body training and was not very famous.
Now that they are short of vitality, they don’t need to rely on spiritual power. They can become popular just by practicing physical training, so they have become the second largest sect in the world by relying on their martial arts value.
In the past two years, they have opened gyms all over the country and invested in a large number of fitness equipment companies. Their company's advertisements can even be seen at the Olympics.
“Run, run, get in shape!”
I saw that the exhibition hall was full of fitness equipment, and there were many muscular men inside, who were showing off their bodies and handing out flyers to others.
“Hehe!”
A very burly and strong man was holding a huge dumbbell and lifting it high above his head with force.
“So strong!”
The people around immediately cheered.
"So strong, so amazing!" Sun Emma said with deep envy: "This barbell is not light at all, but it's so easy to lift it!"
The burly, muscular man pulled out a box of business cards. "If you want immense power, even without awakened talent, come to BenBen Gym. We'll make you stronger! Come sign up for a membership now! We're a national chain, and today we're offering the biggest discount yet: 70% off for everyone!"
Body training is quite popular nowadays, so the crowd who were watching already liked it, and now after being instigated, they rushed to apply for membership cards.
Sun Emma was also very excited, but the people from the Qiongye faction all looked calm.
"That's 70% off! How about we go get a membership together? Benben heard there's a special training method that's sure to boost our strength!"
Bai Mengmeng actually discovered that although physical fitness may become stronger after the talent is awakened, other sects do not possess such powerful strength as the Qiongye Sect.
So they are not very interested in increasing their strength.
Wang Hao walked over with curiosity on his face, picked up the barbell and lifted it above his head easily.
"I'm so strong, I don't need training, right?"
Bai Mengmeng also felt like playing around at this moment, so she walked over and lifted the barbell several times.
“This isn’t heavy.”
As she spoke, she handed it to Liang Cha again.
Liangcha also did it with ease, waving it several times.
"It's really not that good."
Sun Emma was watching in amazement.
"Could this be a specially made barbell, deliberately made by the Bull Run Gate to trick us?"
She tried it out of disbelief.
"Oh my god..." Sun Emma quickly held her waist: "It hurts so much, I feel like my waist is going to sprain..."
