Qu Jianlei went to a cheap store, but it was called a store, but it was actually just an empty room.

There was a receptionist in the room, a woman in her early thirties, with a peak C-level cultivation level.

She was sitting behind the counter, and there were only a dozen or so cultivation resources displayed on the counter.

There is only one copy of each cultivation resource, including Qu Jianlei's familiar crystals, Qi Recovery Pill and healing medicine.

What surprised Qu Jianlei was that there were actually C-level crystals here.

But it's not Mutated Beast Crystal, but Exotic Beast Crystal, which is definitely not from Garbage Star.

Qu Jianlei couldn't help but secretly sigh, the empire's territory is really too big, and even the cultivation resources are all kinds of.

These displays should look like samples, with prices marked under each sample.

Some have relatively fixed prices, such as Qi Recovery Pill. A C-level Qi Recovery Pill only costs four hundred yuan Silver Coin.

Qu Jianlei received Rank B Qi Recovery Pill from Spirit Fox. The price of one piece is one thousand and two.

There are also products whose prices are not fixed, such as crystals. Because the quality varies, there is only one price range.

As for the price of the crystal, in Qu Jianlei's opinion – it's really not expensive!

A Rank B and Exotic Beast Crystal can be sold for five to six thousand yuan Silver Coin in Central City, but here it is about four thousand yuan.

However, according to Sophia, this price is a bit exaggerated.

Business tour guides are deeply resentful of Greenwater City's high cost of living.

It's not just the problem of high housing prices. Everything here is expensive. In comparison, housing prices are really not very expensive.

If you think housing prices are high, you can buy a house in a relatively remote place or build your own house, which really doesn't cost much.

The key is that the cost of daily life is too high. The sisters' various expenses add up to well over a thousand a month.

Specifically for Rank B and Exotic Beast Crystal, there are probably only more than three thousand in other places, but here it is four thousand.

It's not too expensive, only 20%, but this thing is a consumable. If you calculate it over many years, the number will be terrifying.

Sophia heard others say this. Although she is not Ability Warrior, she is a business tour guide.

In fact, most ordinary people have Ability Warrior and Jingwei in their hearts, but they still like to inquire about related news.

But Sophia also knows that you can't talk nonsense on such occasions, otherwise the receptionist alone won't be able to spare her.

She could only put her mouth to Qu Jianlei's ear and whisper softly.

People in the empire are generally short, and her height difference is Qu Jianlei and Buduo thirty centimeters, and she still has to stand on tiptoes.

"Is this the market?" Qu Jianlei was a little surprised after hearing this, but... this little money is nothing.

But he was still a little curious, "Why is there no crystal of Rank A?"

The receptionist originally just looked at them indifferently, but after hearing this, she couldn't help but snort.

"Rank A's, of course, but it's not something you are qualified to see!"

She doesn't mean to be arrogant, it's mainly because she is responsible for distributing affordable resources and is very familiar with Ability Warrior, who often comes here.

The two people in front of me were strangers, so they came in to visit out of curiosity.

She couldn't accept the fact that this kind of tourists just watched it honestly, but they actually spoke disrespectfully.

Qu Jianlei really has no interest in arguing with the other party, he is just a C-level person.

However, Sophia was a little unhappy. She knew that Panda was also Ability Warrior. Although her customers were unwilling to disclose it, she still had to seize the opportunity to please her.

So she snorted and muttered disapprovingly, "Not qualified..."

Her tone was a bit provocative, and the receptionist gave her a cold look, "What do you want to say?"

In this case, Qu Jianlei had no choice but to speak out, "You are already at the peak of C level, why are you arguing with a little girl?"

"Huh?" The woman looked at him in surprise, "Do you know me?"

She didn't feel energy fluctuations from the other party. It probably wasn't Ability Warrior, but she had heard about herself from others.

"It's my first time here," Qu Jianlei replied calmly, "I don't want to argue with you."

As long as you compare his two sentences before and after, it is not difficult to know that his cultivation level should be far better than that of the other party.

Of course the female receptionist also heard it. She frowned slightly and looked at the other party suspiciously, "Are you Rank A?"

"Don't pry," Qu Jianlei waved his hand disapprovingly, "I really want to make it clear... should I argue with you?"

Rank A If you don't reveal your identity, it's just a casual quarrel.

If he reveals his identity, the matter cannot end like this - how dare a mere C-level person be disrespectful to Rank A? The female receptionist looked at him suspiciously again, but finally said nothing.

It's not that she is timid, she has seen too many Ability Warriors, and even the big boss Rank As have seen more than one or two.

Moreover, some of those high-level bosses have no airs, and some have really weird tempers.

The person in front of me looks young, but his demeanor is different after all, and he speaks with confidence.

Dare to pretend to be the boss of Rank A here, unless it is Madman, but no matter how she looks at it, the other party does not have the feeling that he is insane.

So she simply ignored it, and it was because she was crazy that it brought her so much trouble over a verbal dispute.

However, at this moment, a middle-aged man walked in from outside, looking a bit majestic.

He spoke quickly, "Natasha, I want to receive this month's resources... are they here?"

"Rank A resources... are here," the female receptionist glanced at Qu Jianlei intentionally or unintentionally, "Please wait a moment."

Rank A resources? The middle-aged man felt a little suspicious after hearing this. This was not the first time he purchased resources at a low price.

Natasha What do you mean when you emphasize this point in front of others? He glanced sideways at Qu Jianlei and frowned slightly, "What, are you in trouble?"

"No," Natasha shook her head. She didn't want to offend anyone, but when someone of her own came, it was okay to have a crooked mouth.

"This tourist saw that there was no Rank A resource on display and thought we didn't have it here."

The middle-aged man understood that the person in front of him might have said something excessive.

He looked at the other person up and down, but couldn't tell what kind of cultivation the other party had.

Anyway, it's definitely not okay for outsiders to come here and run wild. Greenwater City's warriors must safeguard the honor of their hometown.

Moreover, Natasha is the specific handler of resources. Whether Ability Warrior can obtain relevant resources in time also depends on her operations.

Therefore, the average Rank A is not willing to provoke this C-class.

The middle-aged man frowned, but still said, "Are you... causing trouble on purpose?"

I am provoking someone, Qu Jianlei is a little helpless.

He can understand the other party's mood, just like Blue Star, no matter how rich the boss of Party B is, he must be polite when meeting Party A's accountant.

Otherwise, if the little accountant just puts up some obstacles, the big boss will be busy.

But just because he understands it, doesn't mean he can accept it - directly accuse me of causing trouble? A cold light flashed in his eyes, he turned his wrist, and there were already two Rank A Crystal in his hand.

Not Mutated Beast Crystal from Garbage Star, but Exotic Beast Crystal derived from Old Ivan.

He spoke with a half-smile, "Not only did I cause trouble, but I also stole two Rank A Crystal from you... and then what?"

"I'm rough," the middle-aged man understood when he heard this. The other party was really angry.

Take out two Exotic Beast Crystal. If you don't say that you are robbing yourself, you might get killed! What's even worse is that the other party still has storage space!

He also wants to save face, and he doesn't believe that the other party will definitely be able to defeat him, but is it worth it for such a trivial matter? Several thoughts flashed through him quickly, and the middle-aged man finally waved his hand and expressed it calmly.

"I didn't expect you to be really Rank A, with a very high level of restraint... be careful next time you speak."

"Are you teaching me how to do something?" Qu Jianlei frowned slightly. He was most annoyed by this guy who ignored him and kept doing it.

Not only do you want to criticize me, but you also ask me to be more careful when I speak. Is my physique really so inviting? He snorted softly, "Then I'll wait for you and see what resources you are going to take away today!"

He really wanted to keep a low profile, but he just endured it because he really didn't have a clear idea.

As for the house we just rented and the things we bought... they're gone if they're gone. At worst, we'll have to live on another planet.

"Huh?" The middle-aged man was also annoyed. He felt that he had given in, but he didn't expect that the other party was not finished yet.

It's already Rank A, who wants to be subjected to such arrogance? "What do you mean... are you planning to rob me?"

"I won't rob, I'll bet with you," Qu Jianlei tossed the crystal in his hand and spoke expressionlessly.

"Tell me, how many of these crystals can you come up with, and I'll accompany you... preferably Life and Death Battle."

"Are you crazy?" The middle-aged man rolled his eyes helplessly, "Are you going to fight for a few words?"

Qu Jianlei waved his hand and spoke seriously, "It's not a fight to the death, I'm going to kill you... If you're not convinced, you can try it!"

The middle-aged man glanced at him, hesitated, and finally didn't answer.

He turned to look at Natasha and said coldly, "What on earth is going on?"

He hated this young man's arrogance, but the other party's confidence really made him feel a little numb.

Natasha Seeing this, how could he have imagined that he really hit the big mark today?

It's useless for her to deny it at this time, because the store is under surveillance, and if you play it back, you'll understand everything.

So she could only stutter and explain what happened just now.

During the statement, she certainly would not forget to excuse herself, but she only dared to defend herself slightly.

After hearing what she said, the middle-aged man became more and more speechless, "Just because of this little thing?"

"It's not a trivial matter," Qu Jianlei said, expressionlessly, "Aren't I making trouble?"

"You're not done yet, are you?" The middle-aged man became more and more Earth Fire, turning his head and glaring at Qu Jianlei.

"It's not a big thing, but you have to insist on it... Where is Rank A's magnanimity?"

Qu Jianlei frowned, and then spoke calmly, "No matter how bad-tempered I am, I won't just throw dirty water on others!"
