"Young master, you have to accompany me to buy clothes. It's almost the new year, I still don't have any new clothes!"
"Gongzi, you're going to accompany me to buy jewelry. My jewelry is old!"
"Young Master, where are we going?"
The three of them had their own plans. Duan Jirong brought the three of them to walk around Fire Dragon City. It was almost New Year's. Buying some New Year goods and shopping in the marketplace was the way ordinary people did. Duan Jian was no exception. This was also a type of pleasure.
There were 11 marketplaces in Fire Dragon City, and among them was one that was unique to the Pill Sect. It mainly sold pills, spirit pills, herbs, and other things. It was also the largest marketplace. The other ten markets were for merchants who bought and sold all kinds of goods.
Most of them were Tier 1 and Tier 2 Spiritual Pills. The more expensive ones were the Tier 3 pills and the most expensive ones were the Tier 4 pills. Currently, most of the spiritual pills in circulation in the Great Yu Empire were Tier 4 and below. Tier 4 spiritual pills were all used to purchase extremely valuable items.
The other ten markets were mostly for daily necessities. There were also some flying swords, sharp weapons, and other miscellaneous items. Most cultivators that tried to concoct pills would use spirit pills or gold and silver for daily necessities. Even though gold and silver were valuable, they were inferior in front of a Tier 1 spiritual pill. A Tier 1 spiritual pill was worth 100 taels of silver, and even if it was worth one tael of gold, a spiritual pill was worth the most.
"Boss, how much is this flower dress?"
"So expensive? It's not made of gold.
The shop owner looked at Xiao Fengxian's dressing, and unlike ordinary people, he immediately flattered her, "Miss, this set of clothes is designed by the famous clothing merchant, Fan Wu Shen, but the design fee is 3 taels of gold. In addition to the cloth, it is also made by the famous Jiangnan Silk Mill, 10 taels of gold is definitely not expensive, with your noble figure, it is definitely suitable, it is simply a perfect match."
"Yes, you look good in everything you wear. The main reason is that you are too beautiful. In addition to that set of clothes, you are like a golden immortal."
"Hehe, what a coincidence with your mouth. I'll reward you with 10 taels of gold!"
The shop owner was overjoyed. As he received the spiritual energy pill from Xiao Fengxian and saw that it was a Tier 2 one pill, he was overjoyed.
"I was really lucky today. One piece of cloth sold for 100 gold taels. It was really worth it."
Seeing that Xiao Fengxian was bargaining, Duan Ru Yue couldn't help but smile: "Xiao Fengxian, it's only a Tier 2 spiritual pill. Why is there a need to bargain with others?"
"Gongzi, you don't know, it's fun to bargain. Look, the boss knows how to praise people, right?"
"How hypocritical. His appearance is not something others would praise, but something they would admire." Hei Yan could not hold it in any longer.
"Then why are you wearing a mask?" Xiao Fengxian retorted.
"That's because young master likes it, and I like it too. What can you do about it?"
The two ladies saw that their young master was frowning and did not dare to argue anymore. He walked up to another jewelry store.
"Boss, is there anything better?"
The shop owner looked at the four of them. One of them had a head full of purple hair and walked in the front with a dignified air. It was obvious that he was the owner. "The two women behind her were extremely beautiful and ugly, but they didn't seem superfluous at all. One could tell that this was a trip to a rich family, and they felt that they could make a killing with it.
"Yes, the phoenix Nirvana grade headdress, ten thousand taels of gold, the golden dragon in the sky, 20 thousand taels of gold!"
"Fine, give me one of each and wrap it up."
If only he knew that this ugly woman wasn't going to bargain, he would have quoted more. Now that he had finished wrapping up the jewelry, the boss would drop one of them onto the ground and pinch on it to destroy it.
"This is bad. Customer, this piece of green dragon jewelry is broken. I'll give you another set!"
As the boss said this, he changed another item, "Sir, we don't have another one, this one is specially made, it requires 100 thousand gold taels." As Hei Yan looked, it was pretty similar to the previous one, he knew that the boss was angry when he saw that he didn't bargain. He purposefully said it was 100 thousand gold taels.
"How can you be like this? You broke the jewelry yourself, change it for me, and you still want more money? I don't want it." When the shop owner heard that he had broken a piece of jewelry in order to sell it at a high price, he felt that it would be a loss if he didn't want it. Of course he wasn't willing.
"Customer, why are you so unreasonable? You clearly agreed to take it, but why don't you want it? No, you have to compensate me!" Hei Yan said angrily. "Why would you want me to compensate you?" "Are you being reasonable?"
As soon as the two of them started arguing, a young man walked in, followed by three other men. He looked like a playboy, and when the young man saw how ugly the black rock was, he immediately became angry.
"You ugly thing, disturbing the marketplace, it seems like you don't want to live!"
"Who are you calling ugly? Be careful of my spanking you." Hei Yan was naturally unhappy. At this moment, when he saw a bored young man teasing him, he couldn't help but feel happy.
"Ah, alright. In this Fire Dragon City, I've never seen anyone who dares to insult my people. If you have the guts, then call me!"
The two people behind him came up and stretched out their hands. Suddenly, they stretched out their arms as if they had just hit a hard stick. Their arms immediately became numb.
"Special code, is your arm made of iron or copper? Is it that hard?"
"Scram, I will count to three seconds and disappear. Otherwise, you will have to bear the consequences yourself." Duan Jian was naturally the first to stand up when he saw Black Yan being bullied. He was originally in a good mood today, but was disturbed by this scoundrel, causing him to feel displeased in his heart.
The scoundrel was angered by Duan Jidao's boasting, "I'll count to 10 seconds. If you guys don't disappear, I'll send you to jail." Duan Ru became angry when he heard this: "In prison, what have I done? It's just that I've never been in prison, so I'd like to try it today."
The young man blew his whistle and immediately a troop of soldiers surrounded Duan Jing and the other two. When the soldier saw the young man, he lowered his head and bowed, "So it's Young Master Qiu, what's going on?"
"I suspect this violet-haired youth of abducting a woman, arrest him!"
"Alright, alright. Young Master Qiu can just say yes."
The officer immediately took out four sets of chains and was about to hang them around the necks of Duan Ren and the other three. Qi Liang was about to make a move when Duan Meng stopped him, "I want to see how Qiu Qingquan will govern Fire Dragon City."
All four of them had been sent to the County Magistrate's office in Fire Dragon City. Seeing that it was about Young Master Qiu's matter, the county judge was naturally concerned. He was about to interrogate Duan Meng, who laughed heartily.
"You're just a small county magistrate, and yet you dare to question me? I think you don't want to live anymore. Call Qiu Qingquan here, otherwise, I will take your life!"
When the county magistrate saw this, he realized that the four of them were indeed ruthless. They were not like the average person. If they angered a big shot, things would get troublesome. The County Magistrate became more alert and immediately notified Fire Dragon City's Mayor Qiu Qingquan. Qiu Qingquan unwillingly came into the hall, but upon seeing Duan Ru, he was scared silly.
"Oh my god! Who dares to lock up the heavens?!"
"Lord Qiu, it's your son!"
"What a sinner, what a sinner! I'm finished now, I can't keep my little life any longer!"
"What's wrong, Lord Qiu? Why are you so scared? It's fine if we let him go."
"Fuck you, do you know who this is? "He's Duan Ru, Young Master Duan."
"Ah?" The county town fell into a dead faint. Qiu Qingquan trembled in fear and trepidation as he forced himself to enter the county's main hall.
