Getting Both the Man and the Money
Although he knew that the principle on the second floor was barter, Mo Tang was still reluctant to take out his precious items such as Pill Recipe and cultivation techniques.
After glancing at Yan Kuang, the other party quickly stepped forward, showing great tact.
"Hehe, esteemed guest, is there something you've set your sights on?"
Mo Tang smiled slightly, pointed at the Blood Spirit Branch, and said, "I wonder how many Gold Coins this Blood Spirit Branch is worth?"
"Well..."
Yan Kuang's smile froze slightly before he said somewhat awkwardly, "You flatter me, esteemed guest. Everything on the second floor of my Thousand Medicine Pavilion is sold through barter. This Blood Spirit Branch is a key ingredient in refining the Fifth Grade Pill Spirit Blood Pill, and requires at least a Fourth Grade Pill or a comparable item in exchange..."
"How about I offer 500,000 Gold Coins?"
To be honest, this price is a real premium acquisition. After all, among Fourth Grade Pill, apart from those specifically used to enhance strength, it is difficult for other types to exceed 500,000.
"This..." Yan Kuang looked troubled.
This isn't about money, it's about the rules...
Just when Yan Kuang was in danger, a soft and charming voice suddenly came over.
"Hehe, alright, five hundred thousand Gold Coins it is, deal!"
Mo Tang turned his head in surprise and saw a young woman in a red backless dress standing gracefully.
The woman was quite beautiful, and her curvaceous figure was accentuated to the fullest by the tight-fitting long dress...
Every move she makes exudes a captivating charm unique to mature women.
Of course, what caught Mo Tang's attention the most was the woman's pair of watery eyes, which seemed to always hold a hint of provocation, and her painted eyebrows, like crescent moons, exuded a touch of charm.
"Sect Master!"
Yan Kuang breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the newcomer and immediately stepped forward to pay his respects.
To be honest, he was still a little nervous facing a strange Dou Wang expert.
This is the Black Corner Region. There's no guarantee they won't kill him and steal his treasures. Even if his sect leader avenges him, he won't survive!
Nodding, Su Mei waved for Yan Kuang to leave, and then gracefully walked towards Mo Tang.
"Young man, you look unfamiliar. Do you know your name? Have you just arrived in the Black Corner Region?"
Previously, Yan Kuang called this woman "Sect Leader". So, this Dou Emperor- level woman in front of us is very likely Su Mei, the Sect Leader of the Rakshasa Gate.
But when did this Thousand Medicine Pavilion become the property of the Rakshasa Gate?
Thinking to himself, Mo Tang also cupped his hands in greeting to Su Mei and said, "I never expected to meet the beautiful sect leader of the Rakshasa Gate. I am truly honored!"
Hearing Mo Tang's praise, Su Mei burst into laughter, her chest making Mo Tang feel slightly dizzy.
Damn! I'm dead... I'm dizzy!
"Young man, you're quite the smooth talker, but you haven't answered my question yet!" Su Mei gave Mo Tang a playful, slightly reproachful look.
Mo Tang smiled slightly and said, "I am Tang Mo, and I have indeed just started my journey into the Black Corner Region."
Although he didn't know what this woman wanted to do, Mo Tang decided to hold back for now and see what she was really up to.
Upon hearing Mo Tang's words, a glint of shrewdness flashed in Su Mei's eyes, and then she said meaningfully, "Little Brother Tang is truly a man of great spirit..."
"However, you should be careful when venturing into a sinful place like the Black Corner Region..."
Mo Tang looked at the woman speechlessly. Couldn't you use a more normal way of addressing her, calling her "little brother" or "little brother"?
"Thank you for the reminder, Sect Master Su!"
"Oh dear, why are you calling me Sect Leader? It's too formal. Why don't you call me Sister, Little Brother Tang?"
Wow!
We've only exchanged a few words, and they're already talking about older sister and younger brother? Isn't that a bit too fast?
"Ahem, um, Sister Mei..."
Hearing Mo Tang so readily change his tune, Su Mei let out another charming laugh, moved her feet, and lightly brushed her hand across Mo Tang's shoulder.
"I heard that Little Brother Tang is looking to buy some high-quality healing pills?"
Mo Tang nodded and said, "Yes. The Black Corner Region is full of powerful people and dangers everywhere. Conflicts are inevitable, so it is quite important to prepare some good medicine on hand."
Upon hearing this, Su Mei subtly rolled her eyes.
Damn it, you just open your mouth and say you need a Grade 5 healing pill? Do you think you're Sixth-grade Alchemist?
Su Mei feigned hesitation, then looked at Mo Tang's face, sighed, and said, "Alas! You know the rules of the second floor of our Thousand Medicine Pavilion, little brother. Originally, these rules couldn't be broken..."
But, since it's fate that I have you, Little Brother Tang, I can make the decision: today, you can pay for everything at the Thousand Medicine Pavilion with Gold Coins, and I'll even give you a 20% discount..."
Mo Tang was immediately overjoyed and thanked her profusely, saying, "Then thank you very much, Sister Mei!"
"Yes, yes, come here, Little Brother Tang, what else do you want? Just tell me, and I'll get it for you myself."
"Mmm, I'll take this... Oh, and that one too..."
The two equally wicked fellows wandered around the second floor of the pharmacy for almost half an hour. In the end, Su Mei's plump jade arm was wrapped around Mo Tang's arm, looking very intimate.
Mo Tang felt the soft touch on his arm, his eyes narrowed slightly, looking completely captivated.
However, he remained perfectly clear-headed, constantly trying to figure out the woman's intentions...
Before he knew it, Mo Tang had spent almost all of his millions of Gold Coins, leaving him with only tens of thousands of Gold Coins for pocket money...
Of course, he didn't lose out either. Compared to the gains this time, it was only a few million Gold Coins, which was not a problem at all!
"Little Brother Tang, how about we go and take a look at my Rakshasa Gate next?" Su Mei said, her breath sweet as orchids, as she clung to Mo Tang's shoulder.
Mo Tang's heart stirred, and after hesitating for less than five seconds, he agreed.
Judging from Su Mei's various actions, she does indeed have some purpose, but it's unlikely to be anything detrimental to me...
The most likely answer is that he wants to tie himself to her chariot.
Perhaps for a four-star peak Dou Emperor like her, Mo Tang, a One-Star Dou Wang, is not worth such a huge investment.
But compared to Mo Tang's age, this One-Star Dou Wang is worth much more!
Of course, Mo Tang also had his doubts...
This alluring young woman has definitely taken a liking to me, this young and handsome guy. She not only wants me to be devoted to her, but also wants to satisfy some of her special needs!
Want to gain both wealth and people?
In that case, Mo Tang needs to be careful.
After all, a boy living alone outside still needs to protect himself!
Well, if the other party is willing to give him the entire Rakshasa Gate as a dowry, then Mo Tang might consider taking in a flirtatious and alluring little lover...
