Chapter 528 Friendship Should Not Be Measured by Spirit Stones
Wenwen transmitted her voice to her grandmaster, "Grandmaster, try to exchange for physical items, flying boats, flying swords, magic weapons, magic treasures, the more the better. I have plenty of pills here."
Wenwen thought to herself, perhaps the Wen family's medicine shop could use these two kinds of pills to open up the market.
By then, once the Wen family's reputation is established, will they still worry about not receiving spirit stones?
It sounds wonderful!
As Wenwen was imagining the spirit stones flying in, she heard her grandmaster ask, "Senior Jiang, Patriarch Luo, what do you two think is a suitable price for the Spirit Replenishing Pill and the Pseudo Foundation Establishment Pill?"
Uh?
The two people mentioned exchanged a glance, but neither of them spoke.
The grandmaster had no choice but to continue, "I still have some pills here, but I'm not sure what price to exchange them for. As you all know, let's not talk about the distant past, but just the recent past. The Spirit-Replenishing Pill that Cheng Jian gave to our young friend Luo in the secret realm—my child wasn't after money or fame back then. He was purely there to save his life, without the slightest bit of obligation to repay a debt. So..."
After a pause, the grandmaster continued, "Therefore, let's not measure the friendship between children with spirit stones!"
"Let's stick to business. Let's just talk about the exchange price for the pseudo-Foundation Building Pill and the Spirit Replenishing Pill. We'd like to exchange for flying boats, flying swords, magic weapons, and other magical treasures. What do you two think about how this exchange would work?"
After speaking, the Grandmaster looked at the two predecessors opposite him with a smile, his expression one of sincere exchange.
Hearing her master's words, Wenwen couldn't help but admire him; experience truly matters!
If their master doesn't come, and they accept the Luo family's gratitude money, it will indirectly set a price for the Spirit Replenishing Pill. If the price is set high, that's fine, but if it's low, they will not only suffer a loss, but they will also always feel a sense of being manipulated.
The grandmaster used this trick of undermining the enemy's strength, ostensibly saying that the friendship between the children was immeasurable, but in reality, he meant that while elixirs have a price, friendship is priceless!
High, it is high!
Having an elder in the family is like having a treasure; this is absolutely true!
The reception room was quiet for a moment before Master Jiang spoke first, "How about this, I'll exchange one Spirit Replenishing Pill for two flying boats, or three flying swords for mid-Foundation Establishment stage cultivators. What do you think, Second Elder?"
The grandmaster received Wenwen's hint and nodded, saying, "Okay."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Master Jiang eagerly took out his flying boat and flying sword, and began to introduce them at length, "This flying boat of mine is the latest model, its speed reaches..."
After introducing the flying boat, the next topic was the flying sword. "Look, the flying sword I'm using is..."
After a long and detailed introduction, it was clear that Master Jiang was very satisfied with his new works.
The grandmaster took out a bottle of pills, opened the cap and handed it over, "Senior Jiang, there are six pills here. How many would you like to exchange?"
"Six?" Master Jiang said domineeringly, "I'll take them all."
As soon as he finished speaking, Master Jiang took out several more flying boats, saying apologetically as he did so, "These flying boats are a bit outdated in appearance and not fashionable enough, but they are in perfect working order, they just don't look very good."
The grandmaster looked at the flying boat with excitement and said, "No, no, no, Senior Jiang, we don't care about its appearance, we only care about its performance. It doesn't matter how ugly it is."
"It's alright?" Master Jiang asked again, "Second Elder, are you serious? You're not joking?"
"No joke, senior, you don't know this, but my kid just loves flying boats, regardless of whether they're beautiful or ugly, he only cares about performance..."
The grandmaster went on and on, his words sounding quite heartfelt. It's unclear what it was about his casual, candid conversation that moved Master Jiang.
In the end, Wenwen only summarized the main idea of her master as follows: her master said that they had no aesthetic sense and would bring any kind of garbage home as long as they could fly fast.
While his grandmaster continued speaking, Master Jiang pondered for a few seconds, then took out several more flying boats from his storage bag.
However, the designs of these airships are quite unique, featuring shark heads, bull heads, horse heads, and even pig heads, monkey heads, and dog heads...
Good grief, is this like a zoo?
Everyone looked at these comical flying boats, wanting to laugh but not daring to, and turned their faces away.
Master Jiang cleared his throat and said self-deprecatingly, "Second Elder, these are flying boats I refined many years ago. I dare say their performance is better than those of the current ones. It's just a pity that driving them consumes too many spirit stones, so they have been shelved until now. I'll exchange three of these flying boats for one pill. What do you think?"
Upon hearing this, Wenwen's eyes lit up, and she sat up straight.
Failed spirit stones?
Don't worry, they're rich now!
Noticing Wenwen's expression, the grandmaster agreed to Master Jiang's exchange.
In the end, all six Spirit-Replenishing Pills went to Master Jiang, who exchanged them for more than a dozen flying boats and three high-grade flying swords.
Finally, Master Jiang gave his grandmaster a token and three communication talismans containing his spiritual essence, saying it would be convenient to contact him in the future. Only then did he leave the Luo family with his disciple and the elixirs.
Before leaving, Luo Chufeng said to Wen Chengjian, "Fellow Daoist Wen, let's get together for drinks another day!"
Alright, this trip to the Luo family has been quite fruitful; I've met a master weapon refiner from the Hua Cui Sect!
After watching Master Jiang and Luo Chufeng leave the Luo family, the head of the Luo family was extremely envious. He stopped pretending to be reserved and directly expressed his sincerity.
"Elder Wen, our Luo family sincerely wants to buy the pseudo-Foundation Establishment Pill. How about this: one pill in exchange for a flying boat and a magic weapon? What do you think?"
The grandmaster stopped being coy and said frankly, "The level of the magic weapon cannot be too low. I believe the head of the Luo family can understand the heart of this old man!"
"Understand, understand!"
After saying that, the head of the Luo family took the storage bag handed to him by the person next to him, and took out all the magical artifacts and flying swords inside. He said generously, "Elder Wen, please choose any magical artifacts here."
Upon seeing this, the Grandmaster laughed and asked, "May I ask, Patriarch Luo, how many pills do you intend to purchase?"
"This number," the Luo family head gestured with his finger, "I just don't know if Elder Wen Er has it?"
The grandmaster reduced the number of pills required by the Luo family head by one, and in the end, sold seven pseudo-Foundation Building Pills.
With the aim of expanding sales channels in mind, the Grandmaster asked one last question, "Patriarch Luo, I have two more highly effective Spirit Replenishing Pills here. Would you be interested?"
you still need to ask?
Without hesitation, the head of the Luo family bought it all. He hadn't expected to get any spirit-replenishing pills, but good things are often hidden away, and being able to buy them meant he was destined to find them.
Finally, both parties reached an exchange agreement, and the mutually beneficial cooperation was pleasant.
It was almost dark when the Wen family left the Luo family.
When it was completely dark, the group returned to the stone courtyard.
Several people gathered in the living room, chattering about their haul from the trip. Of course, it was mainly the young people discussing it excitedly.
Just as everyone was preparing to rest, the Grandmaster received a message talisman from Master Jiang.
"Elder Wen, the other peak masters of our Hua Cui Sect also wish to purchase a few Spirit Replenishing Pills. Would it be alright if you all came to our residence for a chat tomorrow?"
