Chapter 295: Disdain
"Eighth Grade?!"
The man's voice changed and his eyes widened.
Then he shook his head.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible! How could there be an eighth-grade Xunying Sword? An eighth-grade Xunying Sword can only be made by a ninth-grade weapon refiner, and there is no ninth-grade weapon refiner in Xuanyun Continent."
"Let me ask you, if I take out the eighth-grade Xunying Sword, can you afford the spiritual stones?"
"How many?"
"It's not much, just two hundred and forty-nine thousand and three. To make it an even number, just give me twenty-five."
“……”For a moment, everyone didn’t know how to complain.
I've only heard of rounding down to reduce the amount, but never heard of rounding up to increase the amount. And why does this 250,000 make me feel like Xu Qiuqian is cursing?
How could he come up with 250,000 yuan? The man hesitated for a long time.
"Why? Can't afford it?"
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, he didn't want to lose face, so he said, "It's not that I can't afford it, but I haven't seen the goods. How do I know whether you have them or not? What if you are lying to me?"
"If you really don't believe it, we can sign a contract, how about that?"
The fact that she dared to sign the contract showed that she really had the eighth-grade Xunying Sword!
Others were discussing and speculating about who was behind Xu Qiuqian and how he even had an eighth-grade Xunying Sword. However, those from the major families and sects saw things more deeply.
Previously, Xu Qiuqian called several families and sects in the name of Teng Ying, and the things he brought out were enough to make all the families and sects excited.
Now that he can easily take out the Xunying Sword, it further confirms their guess in their hearts.
There are no ninth-grade weapon refiners in Xuanyun Continent, but there are in other continents!
Especially the Xiyue Continent.
In addition, they heard that Xu Qiuqian seemed to have a grudge against Chitong Pavilion, which made them more certain that the power behind Xu Qiuqian came from other continents, most likely Xiyue Continent.
That’s the Xiyue Continent!
For a moment, they didn't think about why the people from Xiyue Continent would only run such a small grocery store.
In short, since people have come from Xiyue Continent, they will definitely seek cooperation.
If they could cooperate with Xu Qiuqian, their family sect business would be taken to a higher level!
"Okay, but I don't have that many spirit stones in my storage bag right now. Wait for me to get them now."
After the man said this, he turned around and slipped into the crowd and left in a hurry.
When the others saw this, they knew that this person wanted to run away, and they quickly said, "Why are you running? Where are you from? What if you don't come back later?!"
However, the man had already disappeared.
Here, Xu Qiuqian looked at Xingyue Zhenren and a member of Cangyan Sect who was in the front.
"You guys come in first?"
Judging from their positions, the two of them are probably among the more powerful forces.
Sure enough, the two of them responded and went into the store, and the people from other families and sects did not dare to say anything more.
After the two entered the store, Xu Qiuqian said to Zhu Yichen and the others, "Yichen, Xiaoyi, and Yuanyan, go outside and talk to the others. As for the place... go ask the Teng Family Grocery Store next door if they are willing to lend you the second floor."
“…”
Master Xingyue and the other person looked at each other and saw gloating over the Teng family's misfortune in each other's eyes.
You said that the Teng family is a big family, and they run such a big grocery store. Suddenly, such a small grocery store pops up. People regard the Teng family as a joke. Now they have to borrow someone else's place to do business.
It probably won’t be long before this Teng family grocery store is being pointed at and laughed at to death.
However, being able to let Xu Qiuqian borrow the shop is like being close to the water and getting the moon first, and there may be some benefits.
"Xiao Yi, you should know how to deal with it, right?"
At the same time, Xu Qiuqian sent a telepathic message to Yun Yi: "I have no plans to cooperate with them for the time being."
Telepathic sound transmission is a technique that can only be learned after reaching the golden elixir stage.
But as for Xu Qiuqian, since Yun Yi and Zhizhi had signed a master-servant contract with her, she could transmit messages through telepathy after building her foundation.
Xu Qiuqian intends to train Yun Yi.
It is impossible for her to watch the store all the time, and it is even more impossible for her to deal with people herself every time. For her, cultivation is also a very important matter. If she has to do all these by herself, how can she practice and train her body? She can't delay it any longer.
She doesn't have much time left. There is still a little over a year until the conference, so she has to hurry.
Yun Yi was stunned.
No plans for cooperation? As if seeing Yun Yi's doubts, Xu Qiuqian explained: "Since the problem of Chitong Pavilion has been temporarily solved, there is no need to rush to cooperate. Moreover, my target is not these few families, but the families and sects ranked top in Fengcheng.
Those families and sects must know about my situation, but they never sent anyone to contact me from beginning to end.
It just means that I am not qualified for them at the moment, after all, I only have a small grocery store here."
Even if they mistakenly believed that she was a mysterious organization from other continents, as one of the top families and sects in Fengcheng, they would definitely not rush to get involved.
A strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake, not to mention that the forces behind the scenes were all fabricated by her, so she has to be even more careful.
"So the most important thing right now is not to cooperate with these families, but to let them see our strength. Do you understand?"
In a sense, if she cooperated with these companies so quickly, it would be equivalent to lowering the level of the "power behind her". Even if she wanted to cooperate, she couldn't do it so quickly. She would have to refuse at least eight or ten times.
"Know."
After getting a positive answer, Xu Qiuqian felt relieved. As for Zhu Yichen and Yuan Yan, she did not give any instructions.
Needless to say, Zhu Yichen was not of this age group. As for Yuan Yan, she didn't expect him to do anything, just to follow and learn. Yuan Yan would become the head of the Yuan family in the future anyway, so this kind of scene should be a piece of cake for him.
The three of them left the store and walked towards the Teng family grocery store next door with the remaining family sects.
Only then did Xu Qiuqian look at the two of them.
"You two aren't here to seek cooperation. Or rather, is there something more important besides seeking cooperation?" She went straight to the point.
After saying that, his gaze shifted to the male cultivator from the Cang Yan Sect.
"If my guess is correct, the real person from the Cangyan Sect came here for the Netherworld Fire?"
The male cultivator nodded in appreciation.
"I am indeed here for the Netherworld Fire. Manager Xu asked us for help before, and our Cang Yan Sect spared no effort to eliminate more than a dozen cultivators from the Red Eye Pavilion. They are still in our Cang Yan Sect. I wonder when Manager Xu will go to eliminate them. By the way, he can also let me see the Netherworld Fire. No matter what price Manager Xu offers, our Cang Yan Sect will buy it.
As for the cooperation, if Manager Xu is willing to cooperate with the Cang Yan Sect, we in the Cang Yan Sect will naturally warmly welcome Manager Xu as a partner."
Although his attitude could be described as gentle and polite, Xu Qiuqian still felt a sense of contempt.
And the cooperation he mentioned was largely out of consideration for Netherfire.
Xu Qiuqian smiled and said, "I can have the Netherworld Fire, but I need your Cangyan Sect to help me with something."
Having said that, he looked at Master Xingyue again.
"The same goes for Yinyue Sect. If Xingyue Zhenren is willing to help, then I can also help you with your matter. How about that?"
Sorry, I have a runny nose and feel dizzy, so I really can't code anymore. Four chapters today, I will make up for it tomorrow.
