Seeing the various alchemy tools in the store, Red Boy dived in without waiting for the Bull Demon King and his wife to react and started shopping with great interest.

There was also a shopping guide inside who spoke gently and kindly, and was very considerate. As soon as the child looked at something for a little longer, she would immediately introduce it to him.

"Good vision, kid. This is the latest smart alchemy furnace developed by BBK. In addition to the basic alchemy functions, it can also play songs, provide voice guidance, and use a timer. Even if parents are not at home, they can still help their children make the alchemy."

Red Boy puffed out his chest, put his hands behind his back like an adult, suppressed his excited expression, and asked a very important question:

“Are there any red ones?”

The saleslady smiled knowingly, "Yes, this is just a sample. If you want the red model, I'll arrange for someone to go to the warehouse and get it. They are all new and have never been opened."

Red Boy pursed his lips, the corners of his mouth curved up, his cheeks chubby, and nodded.

The shopping guide asked again tentatively: "Little boy, does your family run a pharmacy or an alchemy sect?"

Red Boy shook his head honestly.

The shopping guide continued, "Learning alchemy is a process of accumulating experience, which requires a lot of materials. But sometimes, you may not be able to find all the ingredients in a recipe even if you run all over the city. It's not worth it to slow down your learning progress just for the materials!"

“Look at this shelf over here, it’s full of practice sets that already have the materials.

"Like this Bixue Pill, and that Yuanqi Pill, they are both must-know pill recipes for first-level alchemy apprentices. Each set can be refined 10 times. Now we are having a grand opening promotion, buy ten get one free, it's a great deal!"

Red Boy nodded continuously as he listened.

When I think of the desolate environment of Cuiyun Mountain, it doesn't seem like a place that can produce good materials.

Oops!

He wanted to get rich by refining pills, but this first step of collecting materials restricted his plans!

He quickly ran to his parents for help.

At this time, the Bull Demon King and Princess Iron Fan had a small argument with the alchemist and the tour guide.

"Is this a shady shop? From the time we entered the scenic area until now, we have been collecting gold. Why do you charge spiritual stones now?"

The world of immortal cultivation in Journey to the West actually does not have a unified currency. The "spiritual stones" mentioned by Princess Iron Fan are a general term for gems that are helpful for cultivation.

The alchemist still looked inscrutable and indifferent. "Don't worry, Madam. What you bought before was just a service. It's understandable to use gold. But look at the goods on the shelf. Which one is not a rare treasure? It's reasonable to trade with spirit stones."

Princess Iron Fan sneered, "Do you really think I don't know what's good? The best you have here is an earth-level magic weapon, and which monster doesn't have a lot of them?"

The alchemist replied indifferently, "That's fine. Our store also accepts barter. You can go to the cashier to sell your magic weapon and we will calculate the corresponding points. Then you can shop."

Princess Iron Fan was speechless. She was arguing because she wanted to use mortals' gold to buy things in the store.

The Bull Demon King turned his wrath toward the tour guide, "Your scenic spot is such a rip-off. For the same price, I can buy two of these items elsewhere. You guys are teaming up to rip me off!"

The tour guide would never admit it. He said with a forced smile, "You are exaggerating. This is inside a scenic spot. Is the rent free? Is the shipping fee free? Prices fluctuate. Please understand!"

"Besides, the goods here are not exactly the same as those sold outside. Let's take your son's Samadhi True Fire as an example. How do you buy it?

"If the craftsmanship is average, at least a Heaven-level magic weapon would be needed to resist the Samadhi True Fire, right? But your son's cultivation level can only control a Yellow-level magic weapon. Am I right?"

The tour guide touched upon the pain points of the Bull Demon King and his wife, and they were indeed very worried about this.

In fact, what they have never dared to tell others is that since the birth of Red Boy, the couple, who used to live a very comfortable life, have become poorer and poorer.

Red Boy is not just a gold-eating beast, he also loves to spit fire. He spits fire when he is happy and when he is unhappy. He has burned many good things in the house.

Yes, the palm leaf fan can extinguish the Samadhi Fire, but after it is extinguished, the things that have been burned will be useless and can never be restored.

The tour guide spread his hands and said, "If you are not interested, I will take you away. There are still many attractions to visit.

"For me, I really don't care whether you buy anything or not. I'm only worried that I can't let you visit the whole scenic area in three days and two nights and have enough fun."

The alchemist next to him trembled his eyelashes quietly.

It would be a lie to say they don't care. They work in the scenic area and get commissions from selling things...

Since we are all new employees, we just want to have a good start and work hard to achieve results.

The Bull Demon King and Princess Iron Fan were shaken by the tour guide's strategy of retreating to advance.

It’s a bit expensive, but it’s suitable for you!

Although they are all yellow-level magic weapons, some are useless after being used once, while others can be used until Red Boy reaches adulthood. The cost-effectiveness is completely different!

At this time, Red Boy rushed out and shouted, "Dad! Mom! What about my alchemy materials?"

The Bull Demon King was confused: "What should I do?"

"We don't have alchemy materials in Cuiyun Mountain! My uncles and aunts live far away, so it's inconvenient to buy things, and we may not be able to gather enough materials for an alchemy recipe!"

Princess Iron Fan's heart trembled slightly, "My son, do you want to buy something else?"

Red Boy pulled her and walked quickly to the row of practice sets, "Mom, there's a promotion going on right now, buy one bag, get one free!"

When Princess Iron Fan saw the price tag, her eyes turned dark and she grabbed Red Boy tightly.

"Son, it's too expensive, not worth it! I'll go to Lingshan Mountain to pick herbs for you myself, is that okay?"

But Red Boy said, "That's so hard! Mother, I feel sorry for you, so you should spend money to relax!"

Princess Iron Fan almost vomited blood. Can't you be more considerate of your family's purse? Ancestor!

Her face turned bitter. She glanced at the human alchemist who looked to be in his twenties, and then looked at her own Red Boy who was over a hundred years old.

Never mind, he's just a kid!

What does he know?

In the end, Princess Iron Fan bought the red BBK Wisdom Pill Cauldron that Red Boy had his eyes on, and also bought a pack of each low-level pill recipe.

When she was checking out, Red Boy also took a fancy to the Little Prodigy's time and temperature control watch, the Tushita Palace co-branded alchemy equipment bag, the alchemy cauldron dust and bump protection cover, etc.

She gave the Bull Demon King a look, and the Bull Demon King carried her son on his shoulders and ran out of the Tushita Palace as if he had heard nothing.

After waiting outside for a while, Princess Iron Fan finally came out with her bags, looking hopeless.

The Bull Demon King smiled awkwardly as he helped carry the things. "I didn't expect that there would be so many gifts for just two items. Maybe it's a good deal."

Princess Iron Fan said depressedly: "I thought that if I let my son concentrate on learning, he would be less naughty..."

She paused, swallowed the thought of "destroying property", and continued, "I didn't expect that learning alchemy would cost more money..."

Red Boy was still hanging on the Bull Demon King's neck, playing with his father's hair, and said unconvincedly: "No way! Mom, I can make money by refining pills!"

"Okay, okay, my son is smart, he can definitely do it!" The Bull Demon King agreed without any bottom line.

He patted the back of his wife's hand and said, "The bill has already been paid. There is no regret medicine. Think positively."

Princess Iron Fan was very annoyed and quickened her pace to walk ahead, "Leave me alone."

She looked at the misty fairyland scenery around her and thought sadly: It would be great if this family didn't depend on her alone.

The Bull Demon King is so good at fighting, how come he can’t make any money?

The family of three maintained a strange atmosphere all the way to the Pixiang Hall.
