Immortal Road

Main text Chapter 29 Preparation

"Just because I purchased hundreds of spiritual stones, elixirs and other items from you, I was attacked twice and almost lost my life. Is this how your Jubaozhai keeps secrets for customers? Or are you deliberately colluding with those scum? Monk, seeking personal gain!" Ishikawa looked at the waiter and said coldly.

"What?" Gong Yuanlin's expression changed drastically. In the world of cultivation, robberies are very common, and there are many scumbag monks who collude with black shops. However, large shops like Jubaozhai do not do such things. After all, hundreds of years of reputation are likely to be lost. Ruined by one little thing.

Although Jubaozhai's order does not allow such things to happen, it is inevitable that the servants in the shop will be bribed to do such things that are disdainful to cultivators.

If Ishikawa publicizes this matter, who would dare to come to Jubaozhai to buy things?

"Is this true?" Gong Yuanlin looked at the waiter eagerly.

The waiter was trembling with fear. From the moment he saw Ishikawa, he had an ominous premonition. "No... no... no, I didn't tell them." The waiter said incoherently.

Seeing the waiter's appearance, Gong Yuanlin already understood that it was definitely the waiter who told Ishikawa's secret.

Gong Yuanlin performed a spell, and soon, two young men from the second floor of the Qi training period came in.

"Drag him out, abolish his cultivation, and drive him out of the cultivation town. If I see him again, I will not let him go." Gong Yuanlin said angrily.

After a while, the waiter's cry and begging for mercy were heard outside the door.

"Fellow Taoist, take a sip of tea to calm down. This waiter has many connections, so I spared his life. Otherwise, I would have killed him on the spot to apologize to fellow Taoist." Gong Yuanlin bowed his hands to Ishikawa and said respectfully.

Ishikawa said without changing his expression: "Fellow Daoist Gong has clear rewards and punishments. This matter cannot be said to be handled unfairly, but for me, the victim, it does not seem to have much significance. Even if this young man dies, he cannot Eliminate the sneak attacks I received..."

Gong Yuanlin naturally knew the importance of this matter, which was related to the reputation of Jubaozhai for hundreds of years.

"What fellow Taoist said is that I will give you a discount here. As long as you come to the store, how about a 10% discount on all elixirs under the Qi training period?" Gong Yuanlin secretly calculated in his mind, even if Ishikawa Buying an elixir worth a thousand spirit stones would only result in the loss of more than a hundred spirit stones in profit. The profit from elixirs is around 20%, so Jubaozhai still makes some money.

Furthermore, it is impossible for a monk at the sixth level of Qi training to ask for a thousand spiritual stone pills at a time.

"Fellow Daoist Gong is really a businessman. At this time, he is still thinking about doing business!" Ishikawa said with some displeasure: "I was attacked twice. Is it just a 10% discount? I am not short of so many spiritual stones. I just have to swallow this in my heart! If Fellow Daoist Gong is not sincere, I will leave now!"

Ishikawa stood up and pretended to leave.

"Don't... Fellow Taoist, please wait!" Gong Yuanlin couldn't help but worry. If this matter was really publicized, he would not have to be the shopkeeper.

"To show my sincerity, no matter how many elixirs you buy today, I will give you a 20% discount on them all. This is my minimum. What do you think, fellow Taoist?"

Although Ishikawa's expression did not change, he was happy in his heart: "I've been talking nonsense to this shopkeeper for so long, isn't it just to wait for this sentence?"

"Since the shopkeeper said so, I can't make any other requests." Ishikawa took out a piece of paper from his arms, handed it to Gong Yuanlin and said: "Fellow Daoist Gong, here are the pills I want to purchase, please excuse me. Get it for me."

"I'll find someone right now." Gong Yuanlin secretly breathed a sigh of relief. This matter was finally settled. Although he made a lot of less spiritual stones, it was worthwhile to resolve this matter satisfactorily.

With a smile on his face, Gong Yuanlin slowly opened the list given by Ishikawa. His face suddenly changed, as if he had been stimulated. It took him a long time to wake up.

After reading the list again, Gong Yuanlin asked in a low voice: "Fellow Taoist, are all the elixirs on this list what you want to purchase?"

"What's wrong? Is there any problem?" Ishikawa tried his best not to laugh.

"No...no problem." Gong Yuanlin whispered the names of the pills on the list: ten bottles of Juyuan Pill, ten bottles of Spirit Condensation Pill, fifteen bottles of Vitality...

"A total of 10,258 spiritual stones." Gong Yuanlin is indeed a businessman, and in an instant, he has calculated the total price.

The elixirs purchased by Ishikawa can be equivalent to the consumption of a small sect for a year, and this is also half of the current reserves of Jubaozhai.

If all were sold at a 20% discount, it would be difficult to replenish so many elixirs in a short period of time. If these elixirs were obtained by a store in the same industry, the consequences would be disastrous.

Not to mention the issue of elixir reserves, this is the first time that Jubaozhai sells such a quantity of elixirs at a 20% discount in the cultivation town.

From a businessman's point of view, anything that is not profitable is a loss-making transaction.

Gong Yuanlin would not fail to understand this truth. But now he is a mute and eats Coptis chinensis, unable to express his sufferings.

Ishikawa casually threw out a bulging storage bag and said calmly: "Fellow Daoist Gong, please count the spirit stones to see if there are enough."

Gong Yuanlin took the storage bag with a suspicious face, and was immediately surprised. He had originally hoped that Ishikawa would not be able to bring out such a spiritual stone, but he did not expect that Ishikawa actually took it out.

Now, Gong Yuanlin had to sell even if he didn't want to.

Although this was a big deal, it was indeed a big deal that didn't make a penny. And it had a great impact on the entire store's reserves.

Gong Yuanlin looked at Ishikawa with a painful look on his face as he carefully put bottle after bottle of pills into the storage bag, and talked to Ishikawa with a happy face. In his heart, he was secretly calculating how to make up for this deficit.

Losing so much profit out of thin air can't be made up in a few months.

"Shopkeeper, business is really good today, shouldn't you give us a red envelope!" As soon as Ishikawa stepped out of the store, a waiter ran over with a licking face.

The shopkeeper should be in high spirits after selling so many pills today.

"You want a red envelope? I also want your life." Gong Yuanlin shook his hand and walked angrily into the inner room.

The waiter was left standing there in bewilderment, wondering what happened to the shopkeeper today. He was smiling just now, but suddenly he turned around and seemed like a different person.
