After Bu Shiyi and the other woman left, Luo Chuan continued basking in the sun on his recliner.
But it seemed his luck had arrived. Before long, a pleasant voice sounded by Luo Chuan's ear.
"Are you the owner of this shop?"
Luo Chuan opened his eyes. Before him stood a slender woman dressed in fitted black attire.
Her glossy black hair was tied into a ponytail, and she looked brimming with heroic spirit.
"Tut, tut, tut. Origin Mall—what an audacious name!" the woman remarked as she looked at the sign above the entrance.
Luo Chuan remained expressionless and did not answer.
Perhaps finding this boring, the woman frowned. "Are you the owner or not? Say something."
Luo Chuan finally spoke, his voice calm. "I am. What would you like to buy?"
"Healing pills or something like that. Since your shop is called a mall, surely you don't lack even those things?" the woman said after thinking for a moment.
Beside Jiuyao City lay the Jiuyao Mountain Range. The mountains were filled with demon beasts and spirit herbs, and naturally, many cultivators made their living from them. Wei Qingzhu was one such person.
Luo Chuan nodded. "Mm, I don't have any."
Wei Qingzhu: ...
Just as Wei Qingzhu was about to leave, Luo Chuan's next words stopped her in her tracks. "I don't have pills, but what I sell is far better than those pills."
"The little boss certainly talks big!" Wei Qingzhu could not help laughing upon hearing Luo Chuan's words. Then she said with a smile, "Still, I'm interested in what your shop sells now."
As she spoke, she walked into the shop.
Just as Luo Chuan had expected, Wei Qingzhu's cry of surprise rang out a few seconds later.
"What?! This whole shop is actually made of glass! Boss, just how filthy rich are you?!"
Luo Chuan secretly curled his lip and did not answer.
Only in this otherworld would glass be treated like treasure, right?
Wei Qingzhu took a deep breath, suppressing her resentment toward the wealthy, and began examining the goods in the shop.
You never knew until you looked; one look was enough to make your heart leap into your throat.
"This cola actually costs Ten Spirit Crystals! And those Spicy Strips cost a hundred Spirit Crystals! Boss, you're practically robbing people!"
Wei Qingzhu said angrily, glaring fiercely at Luo Chuan.
Luo Chuan was unmoved. He said calmly, "Every product sold in this shop is worth far more than its price. There is absolutely no random price gouging."
Hearing Luo Chuan's explanation, Wei Qingzhu immediately said in annoyance, "Utter nonsense! This is the first time I've seen a shop owner in Jiuyao City fleece customers like you!"
Luo Chuan shook his head. "Look at the descriptions beneath those products."
"Descriptions?"
Wei Qingzhu frowned suspiciously. Earlier, she had only noticed the prices and had not seen the descriptions Luo Chuan mentioned.
After thinking about it, Wei Qingzhu returned to the shelves and began carefully reading the descriptions for the Spicy Strips and cola.
After reading them, Wei Qingzhu could not help sucking in a cold breath.
If the descriptions were true, then these prices could practically be called a fire sale!
"Boss, everything in these descriptions is true, right?" Wei Qingzhu could hardly believe it.
Luo Chuan said, "Fair to old and young alike."
"Fine, I'll buy them!" Wei Qingzhu gritted her teeth and quickly made her decision.
"Thank you for your patronage. The total is one hundred and one Spirit Crystals." At last, a faint, nearly imperceptible smile appeared on Luo Chuan's face.
Wei Qingzhu took a bottle of cola and a pack of Spicy Strips, then placed one hundred and one Spirit Crystals on the counter.
Just as Luo Chuan was about to accept them, Wei Qingzhu suddenly covered the Spirit Crystals with her hand.
Luo Chuan looked at Wei Qingzhu in confusion.
"Boss, if these things aren't like the descriptions say..."
After all, not everyone was as wealthy as Bu Lige. One hundred and one Spirit Crystals was no small expense for Wei Qingzhu.
Luo Chuan said calmly, "You're welcome to come smash the shop anytime."
