Because the junior sister said that the platinum-colored personal training uniform was too conspicuous and he couldn't let others recognize his identity while doing serious business, Xiao Shuze specially changed his clothes.
That was the set of clothes he brought with him when he first started working there a few years ago.
After eating vegetarian food for several years and occasionally going to the back mountain for a snack, he has grown a lot taller and his body shape has changed significantly, so that a large part of his arms and legs are exposed, like an adult wearing children's clothes.
"Fifth Senior Brother, you...ah, let's go."
In this state, Xiao Shuze definitely couldn't leave the mountain gate openly, otherwise he would be laughed to death if someone saw him, so the brother and sister took a small path to go down the mountain.
???
When they arrived at the black market, the two watched for a while, and the bookseller who sold pornographic books last time appeared at the same place as before to set up his stall.
"Come, come, come, this time we're selling Xiao Juhua's new work, don't miss it if you pass by."
"Ahhh! It's Chrysanthemum's book!"
There was another round of looting.
The two hid behind the corner and watched the scene with envy.
"Junior Sister, what kind of mental method do you think is so valuable?"
Now he was so poor that he couldn't even afford a hundred low-grade spirit stones.
The stingy sect is rarely generous to its disciples. They will give them a high-grade spirit stone every month, which is not a small amount. It can be exchanged for one hundred medium-grade spirit stones or one thousand low-grade spirit stones.
But because he is a sword cultivator, he has to maintain his sword on a regular basis. He also always accidentally damages other people's property when practicing sword, and often loses money.
So over the years, he has been very poor, so poor that he can't even afford an ordinary cotton coat that only costs one hundred low-grade spirit stones.
The second senior sister and the third and fourth senior brothers were quite rich, after all, they came from big families and were also cultivators of elixirs, tools, and talismans. However, after they sold the spirit stones they earned for various materials such as alchemy and talisman drawing, there were not many left.
So usually when they helped him, they would directly give him pills, talismans or magic tools.
Having said that.
Of course Xiao Wu couldn't tell him that it was actually a pornographic book disguised as a certain mental method.
After waiting for almost two hours, all the books brought by the bookseller were sold out.
The bookseller was about to leave with a grin on his face, but was blocked by two people in front of him.
"It's you! What do you want to do?"
The bookseller clutched his space bag tightly. "I'm telling you, I paid the stall fee and am protected by the black market forces. If you dare to rob me, I'll let them hunt you down."
The reason why he remembered Xiao Wu's face was because she was too special. A little girl in her teens could actually read pornographic books without changing her expression!
In his mind, she must be a hidden powerful person who likes to pretend to be young.
"Don't get me wrong, we're here to discuss business with you."
As Xiao Wu spoke, he pulled out a book with the Sunflower Manual written on the cover from his sleeve. "Take a look? It's a truly excellent book worth reading~"
The thin-faced monkey, also known as the bookseller, took the book from her hand suspiciously.
He flipped through a dozen pages, his expression visibly excited, his eyes turning into stars. "It's richly illustrated! Full of imagination! This, this, this is a peerless divine book!"
His reaction was predictable. She smiled crookedly and snatched the book from his hand. "Then let's discuss this deal?"
The two found a secluded corner and squatted down to talk in private.
Xiao Shuze stood in front of them with a serious face, holding a sword and guarding them. He glared at any dog that passed by.
He really wanted to ask his junior sister why she had the mental manual called the Sunflower Manual, but after she said that she would give him 10% of the spirit stones as compensation after the deal was concluded, he no longer wanted to ask.
It is impossible for Junior Sister, who is so serious, kind, cute and beautiful, to do anything bad.
"Little Sunflower, don't worry. Our Tomato Bookstore is ranked number one in the cultivation world. We have small branches all over the place. All you need to do is provide us with the manuscript, and we will print it for you, bind it into volumes, and sell it."
"Our bookstore has an excellent reputation. We will definitely not delay your royalties, and we will even sign a contract to guarantee the author's interests."
The contract he mentioned was a written agreement drawn up with spiritual energy using the Heavenly Dao as the medium. The contract should clearly state the name of the signatory, the specific penalty for breach of contract, and some precautions. Once the signatory violates the contract, he will be punished by the Heavenly Dao.
Xiao Wu pretended to think for a moment, "Okay, then after deducting the basic costs, the net profit will be split 30% to 70% for me and 30% for your bookshop. In the future, I will also give priority to providing you with the books I write."
"Little Sunflower, this is really not okay, it's not appropriate..."
The two of them bargained and argued back and forth for a long time.
The thin-faced monkey gritted his teeth with a look of pain on his face, and reluctantly took a step back. "Okay, then I'll do as you say."
He quickly drafted the two contracts, and Xiao Wu read them carefully before signing his name.
After both parties signed their names, a special totem quickly rose under their feet, and the contract was reached.
The thin-faced monkey put away his copy of the contract with a smile, not showing any sign of the embarrassment he had just shown during the bargaining. "Little Sunflower, it's a pleasure to work with you."
Xiao Wu: Damn! I was careless.
After signing the contract, the familiar monkey came over with a smile and asked to add her jade slip number for future communication.
After learning that she didn't have her own jade slip, Shou Lianhou was shocked. What era is this? There are still people who don't have a jade slip.
So he spent a thousand low-grade spirit stones out of his own pocket to buy her an ordinary jade slip.
Xiao Wu refused to accept it, but he smiled brightly and said, "It's okay, just treat it as making friends. Please contact me when you write a new book in the future."
