Chapter 90: Use My Other Half of Life for the Lottery Later
“Field Master, is it really true that for just one thousand Yuan Coins, we can rent Li Guang?” Luo Qing swallowed hard and asked.
“Of course. The Divine Devil Dojo has always been neutral. The last time Li Guang acted, it was because someone paid money to help stabilize Clear Moon City. After all, Clear Moon City is currently in a period of unrest,” Jiang Taixuan said with a smile.
“So that’s how it was.” A glimmer of understanding flashed in everyone’s eyes. No wonder Li Guang descended from the sky, gave no explanations, told them not to move recklessly, and ordered them to obey the commands of the City Lord of Clear Moon City.
At that time, Clear Moon City was in chaos. They certainly wanted to take a gamble and were unwilling to give up, only to be faced with that terrifying scene.
Several Foundation Building Patriarchs joined forces, but Li Guang pierced them all with a single arrow, nearly scaring them to death.
“Also, there is an important point for you all to note. The hired experts cannot be used to indiscriminately kill innocent people,” Jiang Taixuan said seriously, then paused before adding, “Unless the other party is guilty of heinous crimes.”
Making money was one thing, but Jiang Taixuan did not want to be besieged by a group of people one day.
“Field Master, I’ll take one strand of Innate Spiritual Energy first.” Luo Qing took out five thousand Yuan Coins and said.
“Good.” Jiang Taixuan took the money and delivered the goods.
Luo Qing immediately began refining it on the spot. The others dared not even breathe loudly as they watched Luo Qing refining the spiritual energy.
Even now, they did not fully believe it; they were waiting for Luo Qing to confirm it.
Half an hour later, Luo Qing awoke from his cultivation with a delighted expression. “Excellent, truly excellent. The quality of my Primordial Energy has improved by more than one level.”
Several Innate Martial Artists hurriedly stepped forward and tested him. Luo Qing’s Primordial Energy could easily shatter and overpower theirs, which immediately shocked them.
Before, if they fought Luo Qing, it could be said they were evenly matched. Now, Luo Qing could completely overpower them and kill them within ten moves!
The expressions in their eyes changed. Looking at the various goods, they were filled with fervent desire, wanting everything.
But these people were rational. Because there was a powerful being here, Li Guang, someone they could not afford to provoke.
“Everyone, what else would you like?” Jiang Taixuan asked with a beaming smile.
“Field Master, I was careless when I left home and forgot to bring more money. I’ll go back and fetch it right away.” Luo Qing tossed out this sentence and hurriedly left.
The martial artists from other families also came up with various excuses and went back to fetch money.
Watching them leave, Jiang Taixuan spat in annoyance. “Forgot to bring money? As if. They were just afraid I would rob them by force.”
Li Guang’s might was too great; they had to come. But they were also afraid Jiang Taixuan would charge too exorbitantly, so they didn’t bring much money. Now they knew the Divine Devil Dojo had so many good things, of course they had to go back and fetch money.
These people had known about the existence of the Divine Devil Dojo before, but they had been focusing on the City Lord position and hadn’t paid much attention. Only after Li Guang’s great slaughter did they start to value the Divine Devil Dojo, but they were still afraid to come and couldn’t quite believe it.
Now that it was confirmed these things were real and were being sold to them, naturally they did not want to fall behind.
As Jiang Taixuan watched these people leave, another guest arrived: Yang Ziling.
At this moment, Yang Ziling looked gloomy, her face full of displeasure. “Field Master, was it you who told Xu Changkong to challenge me?”
Jiang Taixuan shrugged and said nothing more.
Yang Ziling fumed. “Do you have any idea? That guy is a lunatic. I finally defeated him, but in less than a quarter of an hour, he said he had improved again and came to challenge me once more.”
Jiang Taixuan smacked his lips in admiration. “Good comprehension.”
Are you even focusing on the right thing?
Yang Ziling took a deep breath. “Field Master, tell him to stay away from me now.”
“There’s no way.” Jiang Taixuan spread his hands helplessly. “Actually, you could have him join the army. He’s a martial fanatic. If there are opponents there, he’ll definitely go.”
Yang Ziling was stunned and fell into thought.
“Moreover, fighting with him is also beneficial for your progress in the Divine Martial Scripture. Miss Yang, I only have your best interests at heart,” Jiang Taixuan said seriously.
My best interests? Alright, I actually have no retort.
“Next question. This Turntable—yesterday I spent tens of thousands of Yuan Coins on it. Why didn’t I get any reward?” Yang Ziling said unhappily.
“That depends on personal luck,” Jiang Taixuan said, his expression turning serious. “Miss Yang, do you know about the concept of fortune? A person’s fortune needs to accumulate. For example, a poor person, almost starving to death, suddenly finds a Yuan Coin, seizes the opportunity, and soars to great heights because of it.”
“Do you know why? Because they used the hardships of the first half of their life to accumulate the wealth and honor of the second half. You are just in your hardship period now. As long as you charge enough money, you will get rewards!”
Yang Ziling: “…”
“Field Master, then I’ll come back and draw from the Turntable in the other half of my life. Farewell.” Yang Ziling cupped her hands in a salute, turned, and walked away, very resolutely.
Jiang Taixuan opened his mouth. Shouldn’t you continue charging money? If you don’t charge money, how can you accumulate enough fortune? Could it be my story wasn’t good enough?
Yang Ziling soon left. Jiang Taixuan stroked his chin, looked at the Dojo’s shop, and suddenly had a guess. Yang Ziling might be out of money. Otherwise, with her generous spending habits and now being challenged by Xu Changkong, she should have continued buying things to improve herself.
“Field Master, we’re here.”
While Jiang Taixuan was deep in thought, Luo Qing and the others returned with money.
“I want the God-Demon Pill and the Innate Spiritual Energy.”
“Same for me. And also the Divine-level Cultivation Method, from beginner to Foundation Building.”
“Same for me. I want the Divine Martial Scripture, from beginner to Foundation Building.”
“Aren’t you interested in the Dao Fruit texts? The Dao Fruit martial arts techniques. Once cultivated, you achieve the Dao Fruit stage and can fly through the air. How dashing and free would that be?” Jiang Taixuan tempted them.
“Then I’ll also take one text for the Dao Fruit.” Luo Qing gritted his teeth and took out Yuan Coins. “When my father advances to the Dao Fruit stage, he’ll be able to gather more resources and earn more money.”
“Right. Breaking through to the Dao Fruit stage means you can earn more money.” The other family heads nodded repeatedly.
“However, please note, everyone, these can only be cultivated by your own direct blood relatives. If it’s several generations apart, they should come buy it themselves,” Jiang Taixuan cautioned.
“Thank you for the explanation, Field Master. We understand.” Luo Qing and the others hurriedly took out money.
Only then did Jiang Taixuan realize these guys were quite wealthy, even wealthier than some top families in Clear Moon City. These people had developed outside Clear Moon City for many years, without a City Lord suppressing them, and had amassed quite a bit of wealth.
It wasn’t that these guys were particularly brilliant; outside Clear Moon City, they ran amok and had engaged in many shady dealings.
After the transactions, Jiang Taixuan’s private small treasury surged by nearly one thousand Yuan Coins. Although it was far less than what Yang Ziling alone had spent, it was still a decent amount.
The various family heads left satisfied. Some of the poorer ones bought a few martial arts technique texts, but not the Dao Fruit Chapter.
“Gentlemen, hold on a moment. There’s also this Turntable. Wouldn’t you like to take a look at it?” Jiang Taixuan began introducing the Turntable. This was the real money-sinking gimmick.
As long as the System didn’t suddenly grow a conscience, they could forget about taking any money away no matter how much they spent.
Those with a bit less money hesitated for a moment, then decisively took the plunge. If they couldn’t compete in wealth, they could only rely on luck.
The result was obviously disappointing. Their luck wasn’t good either; they didn’t get any reward.
After seeing off the customers, Jiang Taixuan also made a post, thanking the martial artists of Clear Moon City for helping to spread the word. However, he didn’t offer any tangible expression of gratitude, only verbal thanks.
For these people, the verbal thanks were already satisfying enough. Getting a Membership Card was clearly not possible.
“I still need a lot to reach Foundation Building. In my current situation, to build my foundation, I would need at least ten strands of Innate Spiritual Energy. It would be great if someone could buy a Divine Blood or a Divine Body,” Jiang Taixuan thought with a bitter expression on his face.
It was just a pity that this idea was very unrealistic.
