"Do you think I'm intellectually disabled and easy to fool?!!"
Qian Renxing said angrily, "You only look thirty or forty! Why are you pretending to be my grandpa? My dad died ages ago, and my grandma died very early too. My grandpa is really old, and you dare pretend to be him without even dressing up? Who would believe you?!!"
"I'm intellectually disabled, not brain-dead!!!"
Qian Daoliu fell silent. It seemed he had spoken too soon just now. This intellectually disabled grandson of his did not seem to have become any smarter. His own grandpa was standing right in front of him, yet he could not even recognize him.
"Then what would make you believe I'm your grandpa?"
"My family is very well-off. My grandpa is the Great Enshrined of Spirit Hall, so he must be very rich too."
Qian Renxing looked at Qian Daoliu suspiciously. Could he really be his grandpa? "If you want to be my grandpa, transfer me five hundred thousand first and treat me to KFC. Let me see what you've got!"
What's KFC? And what does transferring five hundred thousand mean?
These questions flashed through Qian Daoliu's mind before he roughly understood. His grandson was probably asking him for pocket money to buy something called "KFC."
And five hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins really were nothing to him.
"This is a black card from the Spirit Hall Chamber of Commerce. It has a limit of five million Gold Soul Coins. Grandpa will treat you to ten meals of 'KFC.'"
Qian Daoliu took a black card out of his Space Soul Tool and handed it to Qian Renxing, utterly unperturbed, simply because this many Gold Soul Coins really were nothing to him.
At his level, money was no different from dirt.
"Oho, you're handing over five million just like that? You're not trying to fool me with a fake card, are you?"
Qian Renxing looked at Qian Daoliu with some suspicion. "Uncle, if you don't have any money, just say so. You don't need to pretend to be some big spender in front of me. If I expose you, you'll look really ugly!"
What does big spender mean?
Qian Daoliu was puzzled. Perhaps it meant someone very wealthy?
"If you're exposed while pretending to be wealthy, that would be 'embarrassing.' You should say, 'You'll be really embarrassed.'"
Qian Daoliu corrected Qian Renxing's wording.
Yet he actually felt somewhat gratified. His grandson really did seem to have become a little smarter. Not by much, but at least he could speak very fluently now.
"Oh, oh, you sure know your stuff, Uncle~ But if I expose you, you'll really be embarrassed."
Qian Renxing learned quickly and immediately picked up "embarrassed."
Looking at the black card in his hand, he actually felt a little nervous. After all, this concerned whether the uncle before him was his grandpa.
"True or false, one check will tell. I am your grandpa!"
With one hand behind his back and the other on Qian Renxing's shoulder, Qian Daoliu supported his body with Soul Power and soared straight into the sky, flying directly toward the chamber of commerce in Spirit City.
"Wooooow, we're flying! Woohoo, taking off! I'm so happy!!!"
Carried high into the sky by Qian Daoliu, Qian Renxing was not afraid in the slightest. On the contrary, he was extremely happy.
The strong wind in the sky felt very comfortable against him, and looking down from high above was an even more unique experience. He could not help laughing aloud.
Soon, they arrived at the Spirit Hall Chamber of Commerce.
Qian Renxing took out the black card. A chamber employee swiped it with a Soul Tool and immediately saw its limit, as well as learning the cardholder's identity.
The employee hurriedly bowed to the man beside Qian Renxing with the utmost reverence, practically wishing he could drop straight to his knees before him.
That bearing, so sacred it made people want to prostrate themselves in worship, coupled with this black card-there could be no mistake, absolutely no mistake!!
"It's actually the Great Enshrined! What might you need, Great Enshrined, to have come to the chamber in person? Just say the word, and our Spirit Hall Chamber of Commerce will fulfill your request unconditionally!!"
"No need for this. I'm merely here to look around."
Qian Daoliu casually brushed off the Spirit Hall Chamber of Commerce employee, then turned his gaze toward his intellectually disabled grandson. "See? I didn't lie to you. I am your grandpa."
"You're really my grandpa?!!"
Qian Renxing was a little happy.
Of course, he did not recognize the string of digits displaying the black card's limit, but he could judge its length. That long string of digits immediately convinced him that the card's limit was very high.
On top of that, the Spirit Hall Chamber of Commerce employee was so respectful and even addressed him as "Great Enshrined."
Then there was only one truth: the middle-aged man before him, who looked only thirty or forty, was actually his grandpa!!
"That's right. I'm your grandpa, the Great Enshrined of Spirit Hall, the master of the Elder Hall, the former Judgment Elder, and a big spender too."
Qian Daoliu heard Qian Renxing finally call him Grandpa.
A trace of a smile appeared on his calm, serene face as well. It truly was no easy feat to hear this intellectually disabled grandson call him Grandpa.
"Oh, oh, my Great Enshrined grandpa!! My big-spender grandpa!!"
Qian Renxing chuckled and immediately addressed the Spirit Hall Chamber of Commerce employee. "Did you hear that? My grandpa is the Great Enshrined, and he's a big spender too. Hurry and buy me whale rubber!! Use up this card's limit first. Spend it all on whale rubber!!!"
"Your Highness the Holy Son, did you say whale rubber?"
The Spirit Hall Chamber of Commerce employee's expression was very odd, simply because whale rubber's uses were... well, very special.
"Yes, whale rubber! Are you looking down on my grandpa and thinking he can't afford it? He's a big spender!!"
Qian Renxing spoke anxiously.
Whale rubber concerned whether he could become a god, yet this person was still asking all these questions. Could he not read the room at all?!!
"No, no, no, no, I mean... well, never mind. Whale rubber, correct!"
The chamber employee stole a glance at Qian Daoliu. "We can supply His Highness the Holy Son with all the stock in our Spirit Hall Chamber of Commerce, but even that won't use up the limit. If necessary, I can transfer stock from all over the continent..."
"Hurry and transfer it here! Be quick!! Use up the entire limit!"
Terrified that this amount of whale rubber would not be enough for him to become a god, Qian Renxing had a flash of inspiration in his urgency. "Right, my grandpa is the Great Enshrined. I guarantee it in my grandpa's name-transfer all the whale rubber stock here!!"
"Yes, Your Highness the Holy Son!"
The Spirit Hall Chamber of Commerce employee hurriedly promised, "Our Spirit Hall Chamber of Commerce will do everything in its power to meet the Great Enshrined's needs!!"
"Wait, how did I end up guaranteeing this..."
"Hold on, Xiao Xing, what did you buy with that black card? Whale rubber? Surely it's not the whale rubber I know!!"
Qian Daoliu realized something was wrong.
His smile vanished, and his calm, serene expression changed as well. An inexplicably dreadful premonition arose in his heart. Surely his century-long spotless reputation was not about to be ruined in a single stroke!!
"Oh, Grandpa, you know your stuff? What other whale rubber could it be? It's that whale rubber!"
Qian Renxing chuckled. "You're old and can't have children anymore. You must have tried it over the years, right?"
