The Evil Emperor Chases His Wife: The Good-for-Nothing Lady Is a Genius
Chapter 26 Buying a New House
At the critical moment, the old ancestor grabbed a secret book in a panic and fled. He had been expecting to obtain some rare treasure, but who would have thought it was such an inconspicuous book.
The unwilling ancestor naturally refused to give up, and later gathered everyone to try to explore the ruins again. However, no matter how hard they looked, they could no longer find the entrance, as if everything was just a dream.
This bizarre experience became an indelible shadow in the old ancestor's heart. Whenever he thought about it, his heart was always filled with regret and unwillingness.
In the end, due to long-term depression, the ancestor passed away with hatred!
"I don't know who wrote this book. My ancestors once took it out to show to various heroes, but unfortunately they said it was a useless book and no one would practice this thing at all." The shopkeeper sighed as he looked at the book.
His ancestors thought that even though they couldn't understand the book, they could still sell it for a good price. They didn't expect that the book would eventually be passed down from generation to generation in his family.
"If you hadn't asked, young lady, I would have thought the book was gone." The shopkeeper said that he had sorted it out here once last year, and some of the miscellaneous books here were not about martial arts, so he would take them back and use them as firewood.
He remembered that he had taken the book back and burned it. Could it be that he remembered it wrongly?
"If you like it, I'll give it to you." The shopkeeper stuffed the book back into Jiang Xue's hand and said.
"Take it away, so that I don't have to clean the dust from this book in the future. It makes me uncomfortable just looking at this book!" said the shopkeeper sadly.
"Thank you very much, boss!" Jiang Xue said without hesitation.
After Jiang Xue finished speaking, the book in her hand disappeared and she put it into her ring.
"Cuizhu, is there anything you like? I'll pay for it." Jiang Xue said as she glanced at Cuizhu beside her.
"No need, miss, I don't have anything I like!" Cuizhu waved her hands quickly.
"Don't worry, the thing I have the most right now is crystals. If you like them, we can settle the bill later." Jiang Xue generously took out a bag of crystals and placed it in Cuizhu's hand.
When Cuizhu saw the bag of crystal stones, her mouth opened into an O shape!
"Miss...there are...so many!" Cuizhu was a little overwhelmed as she held the crystals handed to her by Jiang Xue. This was the first time she had seen so many crystals.
"So, let's go and see if there are any good yards later. If there are, we can buy them directly. We don't have to stay in that shabby yard of the Jiang Mansion in the future." Jiang Xue thought, since they had already fallen out today.
Later, Jiang Xue strolled around for a while, picked out a few martial arts suitable for Cuizhu, and then paid the bill.
The shopkeeper watched them leave the shop with a smile on his face.
Jiang Xue took Cui Zhu for a walk around the market.
In the bustling market, there are not only weapon refiners, but also auctions and pill shops.
"Cuizhu, let's find a place to live first. We won't be returning to the Jiang Mansion. Is there anything important in the Jiang Mansion?" Jiang Xue asked.
Jiang Xue was still thinking about how to find a vacant yard in the city when she saw an information board not far away.
This information column contains information about missions ranging from big bounties to small collection missions, as well as the locations of vacant courtyards in the capital.
Jiang Xue looked around and saw several courtyards for sale in the lower left corner.
She wrote down these locations.
Then he took Cuizhu to the location written above.
The first yard was in an alley in a busy area, and Jiang Xue didn't like too much noise.
The second place was next to a brothel, which was full of gossips. Jiang Xue didn't even have the desire to go into the yard to take a look.
The place they are looking at now, the third one, is located in the east of the capital. The surrounding area of the courtyard is quiet and the area is quite large. According to the host, this was the residence of a wealthy family, and they moved away with their whole family, so this courtyard has been idle for a long time.
"Although no one has lived in this house for a long time, I will send someone to clean it regularly, so don't worry, girl. You can move in right away after you buy it." said the man, who is about 1.75 meters tall.
"Well, Cuizhu, what do you think of this place?" Jiang Xue turned and asked Cuizhu who was standing beside her.
"As long as the young lady likes it!" Cuizhu said with a smile.
"Boss, this is it. I want to buy it. What's the price?" Jiang Xue asked the boss.
"Miss, this house is worth ten thousand crystal stones. Many things inside have not been moved. This price is very cheap." The boss was afraid that Jiang Xue would think that the price was too high, so he immediately tried to smooth things over.
"No problem!" Jiang Xue took out a small pile of crystals from the ring and placed them on the ground. Cui Zhu's eyes widened when she saw it.
"Boss, take a look and see if there are enough 10,000 crystals here. If not, I can add more." Jiang Xue said, pointing at the small pile of crystals.
"Okay, girl, wait a moment!" After the boss said that, an iron machine came into Jiang Xue's sight. The boss used his spiritual power to put the crystal on the ground into the machine. With the entry of the crystal, the machine actually started to run.
The boss pressed a few buttons on the machine, and the crystals fell from the big hole on top onto the flat iron plate below. Every time a crystal fell, the number would jump.
As all the crystals on the ground were put into the machine, the numbers on the machine jumped faster.
With a "ding" sound, the numbers stopped and never moved again.
"So..." Just when Jiang Xue was about to say that she was so accurate with just a casual touch, she saw the host use his spiritual power to take out the crystal from the funnel-like thing on top.
Looking at those dozens of crystal clear crystals, Jiang Xue was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth, but she swallowed the words back.
This was the first time Jiang Xue had seen such a novelty. She couldn't help but wonder: If the transaction volume was huge, would she have to count these crystals one by one?
However, when she actually witnessed everything in front of her, she suddenly realized that this continent was far more advanced than she had imagined.
In this capital, crystals serve as currency. Unlike the 25th century, there are no other forms of currency designed specifically for large transactions.
All transactions depend on these blue crystals. These crystals have a deep blue hue and feel cool in the hand.
Fortunately, there is such a magical treasure as the storage ring on this continent. If it were not for it, faced with so many crystals, we would probably have to rely on sacks to carry them.
At this time, the boss took out a yellowed land deed from his arms and handed it to Jiang Xue.
