Chen He asked so sincerely that it frightened the five, six, seven, eight, and four others.
They didn't even notice the creditor's change of attitude.
"Junior Sister, this won't do! If you want to sell someone, sell them to me. How can a delicate little girl like you be a slave?"
Liu'er's mouth has always been quicker than others.
The brothers and sisters all looked at Liu Er with disgust on their faces.
Buy you back and wait for me to clean up the mess?
Chen He: Sixth Brother, we are not worth the same. I suspect you are inflating your own value, but I have no evidence.
"Kesu, Master owes a debt, and as his disciple, I should pay it back! But I'm poor, and so is our sect, so I can only write an IOU. Unless..."
Chen He paused and looked at the creditors with an embarrassed look.
"Little girl, unless what?"
A female cultivator, who looked quite kind, asked with a smile.
Shen He responded with an awkward yet polite smile.
"Unless you can give me a discount, I'll write an IOU to my senior brothers and sisters, and that should be enough."
Shen He lowered his head embarrassedly, with a sly smile in his eyes.
From his fifth senior brother, Shen He had learned that many debts were demanding exorbitant prices.
Since it is unreasonable, she certainly won't be taken advantage of.
"this……"
The female cultivator glanced at the other creditors.
Although they came together, they were not very familiar with each other.
Besides, when it comes to money, you can't make decisions for others.
"Or, I'd better write an IOU. After all, I'm still young and I can always pay it back in my lifetime."
Chen He didn't urge her, with a cute expression that said 'I'm easy to talk to'.
But the creditors were not calm.
What the little girl meant was that she might be in debt until she died.
But at their age, can they afford to wait?
Who has nothing better to do than to collect debts all day long?
Come on, doesn’t it cost spirit stones to take a flying boat?
"Little girl, I'm going to charge you 10% less. This is the written agreement your master signed. Can you return it to me first?"
A male cultivator with triangular eyes seized the opportunity.
Shen He nodded, then shook his head.
"What do you mean? Do you want to regret it?"
The man with triangular eyes squinted, making it impossible to see his expression, but one could sense his displeasure.
After all, it was Xuantian Sect's trump card, and the cultivation level of the few disciples who came back was not low, so no one dared to use coercion.
If the ancestor of Xuantian Sect is invited out, he will die a miserable death.
Debt collection and bullying are two different things. We have to be right.
“If no one offers a lower discount than you, of course I will pay you back first, after all, you are the first one to give me face.
But my money is limited, I will pay back as many as I can, so I can only ask you to wait for a while."
Shen He smiled apologetically and turned to look at the others.
“Seniors, if you haven’t made a decision yet, I will write an IOU.
Everyone knows how poor my master is. If you have the IOU he gave you, it's really just an IOU."
A soft knife hurts the most.
The creditors were well aware that Xuantian Sect was poor and often in debt.
It is precisely because of this that the price Xuantian Sect has to pay to borrow spirit stones is comparable to usury.
…
The creditors fell silent.
"Little girl, this is my IOU. The amount isn't that big. Can I take 70% less?"
The kind female cultivator spoke and handed the IOU to Chen He.
Shen He glanced at it and saw twenty bottles of nourishing elixirs.
Let’s just say, as the dignified sect leader, are you so poor that you can’t even afford these few pills?
However, Shen He still knew the price of the Soul-Replenishing Pill, which was quadrupled in price.
After taking a deep breath, Shen He did not immediately turn hostile.
Not only towards those who took advantage of the situation, but also towards his brainless master.
After all, you are the leader of the sect, but you don’t understand the market rules?
The decline of Xuantian Sect has a lot to do with his lack of brains.
Once again, have some mercy on my fellow brothers and sisters.
At the rate the debt is growing, I won’t be able to pay it off even by working.
"Junior Sister, this is the rule for buying on credit. Starting at three times the amount is already very respectful to the Sect Master.
If it were someone else, they might not be able to get it on credit."
Liu Er kindly explained the confusion to Chen He.
Chen He: Brother Seven is unreliable! Why don't you put a silence sign on him?
Is this the time to give her some scientific knowledge?
With that said, how can I bargain?
"Fellow Daoist Liu Er is absolutely right. We only offer credit to customers with high reputation and good credit.
This isn't the first time that Taoist Master Daochen has collaborated with our medicine pavilion."
The female cultivator laughed.
The girl muttered to herself, "It's not just the Sect Master. Every master buys things on credit every year, and it's not limited to elixirs."
Chen He: Well! Xuan Tian Zong is not poor, it is unjust!
She was puzzled. Could it be that Xuantian Sect’s own alchemist couldn’t make pills?
It seems that other monks also have it. With just a few of them, can't they be self-sufficient?
But you can't ask this question, outsiders will laugh at you.
"Sister also heard it. Actually, we younger generations have been paying off our debts. But it's so tiring, so we are preparing to leave the sect... Hmm!"
Before Shen He could finish his words, the girl covered his mouth.
"My junior sister is just talking nonsense, don't believe it. Children don't think too much when they speak."
Eighth sister’s smile is uglier than her crying.
Liu Er: Junior sister, you dare to say such things? Why don’t you put up a silence talisman?
Naturally, no one responded to Liu'er's look.
At this moment, everyone was afraid that Chen He was not just talking.
While they were on the road, they realized that the junior sister wanted to leave, so they practiced hard.
