What Yan Xuemin truly wanted to say was: Be careful on your way back. After all, you're carrying three thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones with you!
Still, he hoped nothing like that would happen.
Just as he said this, in the backyard of that small two-story building, the Foundation Establishment Shopkeeper was seeking instructions from Heyang True Person.
"True Person, they're leaving... are we just letting them go?"
"What else?" Heyang True Person glanced at her and asked casually. "Are you planning to break the rules?"
"I wouldn't dare," the Foundation Establishment Shopkeeper answered respectfully. "But... even the Yan Family's entire fortune is only about that much."
The Yan Family had territory and businesses, but excluding all the family's manpower, their assets amounted to only so much.
Our side still owes them at least four thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones. Converted into ordinary spirit stones, that was at least forty million.
Take the Yan Family as an example. If they did not fight to the death and simply left with all their resources, their total wealth would only be worth several tens of millions.
"I understand what you're thinking," Heyang True Person said flatly. "But even the weak have their own wisdom for survival."
You must not underestimate the Yan Family. They did have a False Core, after all.
"I was only thinking," the Foundation Establishment Shopkeeper hesitated before speaking, "there's still a large remaining payment. What if..."
She did not want to rob them. As long as something happened to them, wouldn't her side save itself this batch of spirit stones?
Heyang True Person gave her a bland look. "What are you trying to say?"
"There are a few restless people in Zhu Family Market," the Foundation Establishment Shopkeeper said in a deep voice. "Last time, they nearly robbed our goods."
