Chapter 33 Purchasing

How come? The Exquisite Pavilion is famous for its large variety of cultivating items, its a pity that you dont even have the eyes of an aged snail and the gallbladder of a bear Qinghuas face suddenly froze, as dissatisfaction was quickly showing up in his whole demeanor. Indeed, he was rather embarrassed in front of Xu Yi. After all, moments ago, he had bragged that The Exquisite Pavilion would have all of the medicines a cultivator could wish for.

Xu Yis eyebrows changed into a deep furrow and he let out a desperate sigh, as the hope in his heart had quickly sunk to rock bottom. Without these two medicines, he was unable to cultivate the Dominating Strength technique, which was his top priority in order to become the best cultivator in the peak state of a forged body. Although Teacher Zhou warned Xu Yi that the unbearable pain, which occurred when reversing your tendons and vessels, would deter the cultivation process, Xu Yi was confident he could overcome it as long as he managed to obtain all of the required medicines. Because, back when he was wearing the heavy armor, he had already experienced extreme physical torments.

I entrusted you to purchase these medicines for me. Please appoint a reliable purchaser to find the medicines throughout Guanan. I wont leave until I see the medicines. Xu Yi urgently instructed Qinghua.

Distinguished guest, if we dont have these two medicines in stock, then no other places in Guanan will have it either. The eyes of an aged snail and the gallbladder of a bear, both of them are hard to come by. Most of the time, these rare items are sold out as soon as they arrive. The brown haired lady explained.

What? You mean we have to count on our luck to buy these two damn items?! Qinghua jumped up and down, like an irate barking dog. He worried that his commission would be heavily shrunk, because of the unavailability of these two medicines.

Shut up! Xu Yi glared at Qinghua, showing contempt for the latters unwise manner. Anger wouldnt solve anything.

Would you please let me know what I should do to obtain these medicines as soon as possible? I will greatly appreciate your advice. Xu Yi behaved like a gentleman, which was a little bit odd compared to his eating manners from before.

The lady turned her focus to the raunchy-looking Xu Yi, suddenly realising that he was actually the buyer.

Usually, we will charge down payments from the customer before we purchase the lacking items. Once we get the required item, we will notify the customer and invite him to come and collect his goods and pay the balance. The lady offered her solution.

That sounds ok. How about the lead time? How many down payments shall I pay? Xu Yi had no alternative but to accept this proposal.

Xu Yi rummaged through his pocket and took out a golden disc.

Since Xu Yi looted Junior Zhous family, he had turned into an overnight millionaire. The Zhou Family had to work in the gold mines for three whole years, to obtain these two golden discs.

The glaring golden disc made both the lady and Qinghua faces freeze like wax portraits their eyes popped out like a goldfishs, their mouth opened widely like a hippos, as they harshly gasped for air.

- Dong! -

Qinghua kneeled down in front of Xu Yi, as if he was worshipping a god.

Meanwhile, the brown haired lady kept staring at the gleaming disc, as if some kind of magic power from this disc was taking her soul.

Hurry up, please. We need to get things settled. Please exchange this golden disc for twenty gold coins, eight pieces of gold cheques worth 100 nominal value [1], as well as 15 pieces of gold cheques worth 10 nominal value. The rest is for the down payment. Xu Yi decided to convert the golden disc into some loose change.

The lady came back to life by Xu Yis loud voice, surprisingly, she didnt take the golden disc and instead, she just ran away in a hurry.

Boss, youre in such a low profile. But youre actually so rich! Qinghua crawled up.

Previously, Qinghua thought that Xu Yi was merely an inexperienced pumpkin, who might just be a simple upstart. However, now, seeing the golden disc, he made up his mind to forever follow Xu Yi in the future.

Calm down. Dont forget, I have another task for you. But look at you now Im a little bit worried that youll screw it up. Xu Yi scolded Qinghua for his prudence.

Ill do whatever I can to work for you, boss. Qinghua couldnt take his eye off the golden disc, as he hysterically replied to Xu Yi.

In the middle of their conversation, the brown haired saleswoman came back in with an old man, who turned out to be the chief steward Mr. Wu.

They bowed to each other and soon, Mr. Wu clapped his hands together as a sign to inform the servants to carry in a large tray, with gold cheques and gold coins displayed inside.

Please count it. Mr. Wu smiled at Xu Yi.

Xu Yi took the tray, and started counting all the gold cheques and gold coins. After a while, he suddenly looked up at Mr. Wu and asked: Why?

The total amount was still worth a total of 1,000 gold coins, in other words, they didnt deduct the down payments. Xu Yi was really confused, why didnt they accept his down payment? Or was it perhaps a hint to reject their deal?
