I was forced to leave the world of immortal cultivation after being transformed into a loser.
Chapter 52: Lack of Spirit Stones
Gu Liyue frowned. How did he know I was selling pills? No one in Qingxuan City knew I could make pills. Seeing his mocking expression, I wondered who he was mocking.
"Yes, how did you know this, Senior Brother?"
"That's hilarious! Everyone knows that besides the people from Tongming Peak in Qingxuan Academy, who else would sell pills? You're not just saying that casually, are you? You're the one selling pills?"
From the tone of his voice, Gu Liyue knew that anyone who could come here to sell pills was not an ordinary person.
"No, Brother, I really am here to sell pills."
"You're bringing the pills your family gave you here to sell, right? Let me tell you, your supply is low, so Duobao Pavilion won't accept them!"
Gu Liyue asked with a thirst for knowledge, "Excuse me, Senior Brother, how many pills does Duobao Pavilion need to accept?"
Yin Rutang had already asked the price and asked the maid to invite the shopkeeper.
"Why waste your time talking to her? You'll know when the shopkeeper comes."
Nie Hengzhou listened thoughtfully to the conversation between Gu Liyue and Fu Changshi.
At this time, Pei Baozhu and two other girls walked in. They saw Gu Liyue and Nie Hengzhou were also there, so they walked over. They greeted Nie Hengzhou as a disciple and said, "Uncle Nie."
Nie Hengzhou nodded.
Pei Baozhu looked at Gu Liyue again and said, "Liyue, you are here too. What are you buying?"
Gu Liyue said calmly: "I just came to take a look."
Pei Baozhu introduced Wen Yiru and Lin Zhuxin to Gu Liyue. Wen Yiru was beautiful and charming, and she greeted Gu Liyue in a graceful manner.
Lin Zhuxin, with her fair complexion and an unhealthy pallor, formed a contrasting figure alongside Pei Baozhu. The fairer she was, the darker she was.
Pei Baozhu looked at Yin Rutang and said, "Just now this senior sister said to wait for the shopkeeper to come... Did something happen here?"
Fu Changshi said: "It's nothing, it's just that some people want to save face and say she is here to sell pills."
He glanced at Gu Liyue as he spoke. Everyone knew who he was talking about from the look in his eyes.
Pei Baozhu looked left and right, and could tell at a glance that Yin Rutang's identity was not simple, so she asked their names.
"So it's Senior Sister Yin! We're freshmen this year and don't know the rules here. I think it's a misunderstanding! I apologize to you on behalf of Gu Liyue."
When Wen Yiru heard Pei Baozhu's words, she frowned and remained silent. Lin Zhuxin looked at Pei Baozhu in surprise.
I don't know what happened, but you've already concluded that Gu Liyue was wrong!
Yin Rutang glanced at Pei Baozhu and Gu Liyue with disdain and said, "No need to apologize. Besides, it's not your fault. She can be embarrassed herself."
Gu Liyue looked at Pei Baozhu coldly and said, "Pei Baozhu, what qualifications do you have to represent me?"
Pei Baozhu tried to hold Gu Liyue's hand, but she dodged. She said, "Liyue, we are roommates after all. I apologize for your mistakes. It's all right if we clear up the misunderstanding."
"There's no misunderstanding. I'm here to sell pills. Also, you can't replace me." Gu Liyue said seriously.
Fu Changshi looked at them and found them interesting: "Okay! Let me see if you can sell me a pill."
As he said this, he burst into laughter.
Nie Hengzhou looked at Gu Liyue's calm expression and stood quietly beside her.
At this time, the shopkeeper came over. He had originally thought that these seven people were gathered around the medicine counter, and business was good! He was happy in his heart, but who knew that none of these seven people were here to patronize.
The shopkeeper's surname was Jia. He was a fat, middle-aged man with a pair of eyes that would occasionally gleam with brilliance.
He said to Yin Rutang, "I wonder what you want from me, Fairy?"
Yin Rutang glanced at Gu Liyue, raised his head proudly and said, "I have a bottle of Rejuvenating Pill that I want to sell to Duobao Pavilion. Will you buy it?"
Shopkeeper Jia drank a bottle of wine with his mouth drooping.
Shopkeeper Jia said calmly, "I'll take it."
Yin Rutang asked, "What's the price?"
Shopkeeper Jia replied, "Four hundred and ten low-grade spirit stones each."
Yin Rutang said happily, "Okay."
Fu Changshi looked at Gu Liyue, raised his head proudly and said, "Look, this is the second-level elixir that my senior sister just refined. Duobao Pavilion requires at least one bottle before they will buy it!"
"So Senior Sister Yin just managed to collect one bottle and is selling it!" Gu Liyue said.
Fu Changshi, who had been holding his head high in pride, felt that the content of Gu Liyue's words was correct, except for the tone. He didn't know how to react for a moment.
Lin Zhuxin laughed inwardly. This Gu Liyue was quite interesting. She just wondered if she would be able to save face later.
Yin Rutang didn't leave after collecting the spirit stones. She was thinking about how many bottles Gu Liyue, who said she came to buy a bottle of elixir, would sell, and what grade of elixir she would sell.
At this time, everyone's eyes were on Gu Liyue.
Gu Liyue glanced around and saw that everyone was looking at her. She took out a porcelain bottle and handed it to Shopkeeper Jia, saying weakly, "Shopkeeper Jia, please take a look. What level is this pill?"
When Yin Rutang heard that it was a pill, he burst out laughing.
She wanted to see Gu Liyue's embarrassed expression, but she found her calm and composed. She couldn't help but curse in her heart: How shameless!
When Shopkeeper Jia heard about the one, he was reluctant. He thought the bottle was already low, and he didn't expect there would be one left. But he was a businessman, so he remained calm.
He took it arrogantly, opened the bottle cap, and a fresh medicinal fragrance wafted out. Shopkeeper Jia's expression changed, and he became cautious.
Pei Dingzhu saw that Shopkeeper Jia's expression had changed. She said kindly, "Gu Liyue, don't just show me a random pill. I don't want ordinary ones."
Gu Liyue said casually: "I just picked one out at random."
Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Jia's expression changed again, this time with a hint of excitement. He slowly said, "Rejuvenating Pill, third-grade. Third-grade Rejuvenating Pill."
Yin Rutang's expression changed when she heard this, turning ugly. There was actually a third-level anti-aging pill! How could she not have heard of it?
Fu Changshi's face changed drastically after hearing this. Then, as if he had thought of something, he said maliciously, "Just one. Will you take it?"
Shopkeeper Jia wanted to buy this pill, but there was a rule before that pills were to be collected in bottles, which meant that pills with less than ten pills would not be accepted.
He explained, "Third-level Rejuvenating Pills are rarely seen. We'll take them."
Pei Baozhu also looked unhappy. She said, "Liyue, if you only have one, keep it for yourself! Why sell it? Are you short of spirit stones?"
When Shopkeeper Jia heard this, his face darkened and he looked at Pei Baozhu. This person is here to ruin the business!
Gu Liyue replied calmly, "I am indeed very short of spirit stones."
Upon hearing this, Nie Hengzhou silently counted his spirit stones and valuables.
She paused and said, "I don't know, how much does this one cost?"
Seeing that Gu Liyue not only didn't refuse to sell it but also asked about the price, Shopkeeper Jia smiled and said, "Eight hundred and fifty low-grade spirit stones."
