Chapter 231 Gift
Jin Yu Lou's ornaments are indeed exquisite, reflecting a sophisticated aesthetic.
Colorful ice crystal bracelets, moon-shine silver bell anklets, gold-threaded jade waist chains, kingfisher feather and pearl-inlaid hair ornaments, jade-beaded hairpins... armlets of various flower shapes, earrings and hairpins of all kinds, are exquisite and countless.
Shen Yao was immediately captivated by the sights as soon as she entered: "This hair ornament is beautiful, I want it."
"I'll take these two hairpins, these necklaces... this row of earrings... this one, this one, and this one... I'll take them all."
Manager Peng grinned from ear to ear, following closely behind her to serve her.
Shen Yao looked around and bought out half of the jewelry on the first floor, but these jewelry items were all quite ordinary and not very suitable as a wedding gift.
She looked up at the second floor: "Manager Peng, what's on the second floor?"
Shopkeeper Peng: "The second floor is full of couple's accessories. Does the young lady have a husband?"
Perfect timing, that's exactly what she wanted to buy: "Let's go check out your second floor."
Shen Yao thought that the ornaments on the second floor were all in pairs, but she didn't expect that there were many sets, with several of the same ornaments inside.
Shen Yao glanced at a few items, then walked to the rest area and sat down. She said to the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper Peng, could you please pick out some of the matching sets of jewelry for me to see? I want the best and most expensive ones."
"Alright." After replying, Manager Peng asked her, "Does the young lady only have one husband?" He thought to himself that a wealthy and beautiful young lady like her should have more than one husband.
Shen Yao immediately understood why many sets contained the same set of accessories; some demons practiced polygamy, while others practiced polyandry.
She was very interested, but dared not make any comments. After all, in her mind, love meant couples, and there was no room for a third party.
I wonder if Tu Jiaojiao and Long Xuan are a polyandrous couple or a polygynous couple? Or maybe they're just a couple?
This troubled Shen Yao greatly; how should she give the gift?
"Shopkeeper, please sit down for a while and wait a bit." Shen Yao told the shopkeeper to wait, then picked up her communication token to send a message to Lu Guoguo, asking about Tu Jiaojiao and Long Xuan's situation.
Before she had even finished her tea, Lu Guoguo replied to the message: "I don't know if Sister Jiaojiao is still looking for a husband, but Brother Longxuan said he only wants Sister Jiaojiao."
This message made Shen Yao's mind go blank for a moment. She pondered the message several times and finally grasped the key point: Tu Jiaojiao and Long Xuan only had each other for now.
Shen Yao: "Please trouble Manager Peng to give me the best piece of jewelry from the set."
"Wait here, young lady, I'll be right there." Manager Peng picked and chose twenty sets, then used his spiritual power to control those twenty sets of ornaments, flying them to the rest area and displaying them in mid-air for Shen Yao to see.
Shen Yao chose one set each for herself and Feng Yu, Gou Yue and Ning Yuan, and Lan Ying and Wan Li. She also picked out a few more sets to give to Tu Xiaoxiao, Tu Ruanruan, Lu Guoguo and Xianyu as gifts for their future marriage.
There were thirteen sets left. She chose one set each for her brother Bai Song, her senior brother Zhao Bin, and her brother Wu Hu Yawu, leaving exactly ten sets.
She put away the selected items and waved her hand, saying, "These ten sets are just the right amount. Please send them to Tu Jiaojiao at the Long family in my name, saying that they are gifts from Shen Yao to her and Long Xuan to celebrate their marriage."
Shopkeeper Peng's attitude became even more respectful: "So it turns out that you have a connection with Young Master Long and Miss Tu. Hehe, as expected, I knew you were no ordinary person the moment I saw you."
"It just so happens that I have a connection with Jiaojiao." Shen Yao got up and walked around the second floor again. Pointing to a large box containing a set of eleven pearl necklaces, she said, "Please also send this set to the Long family for Long Jiajia."
Manager Peng: "Alright, I'll make sure the girl is taken care of."
Having bought everything she needed, Shen Yao inquired about the prices and paid the bill. Shopkeeper Peng began calculating: "Miss, the Moonlit Silver Bell Anklet is 1200 coins, and the Pink Crystal Necklace is 3800 coins..."
Shen Yao: "Stop, give us the total price."
"Alright, please wait a moment, young lady." Manager Peng breathed a sigh of relief. As expected of the God of Wealth, he was indeed rich and powerful, not even listening to a penny.
He spent a short while calculating the price on his calculator: "Miss, I've checked it three times. The total price of the jewelry you bought, rounded down, is 3,820,000 coins."
"Buying so much only costs three hundred and eighty-two dollars, that's cheap." Shen Yao took out a bag of ten-dollar knives: "Four hundred dollars, keep the change, the extra is for your trouble."
"Oh my! Miss, you are too generous!" Manager Peng's hands trembled as he took the brocade bag, wiping away tears with excitement: "This is the first time I have received so many tips. My salary as the head manager for a year is only twelve dollars."
It's easy for high-level cultivators above the Immortal Realm to earn Ten Coins, but the number of high-level cultivators is relatively small compared to the vast cultivator population.
Most cultivators in this world are of low to mid level, and the resources they can obtain are limited. In particular, low-level cultivators have shorter lifespans than many low-level beasts, and their lives are relatively difficult.
After becoming rich overnight, Shen Yao became accustomed to being generous and didn't think much about what the tips she casually sent out meant to ordinary cultivators.
Not thinking too much doesn't mean she doesn't understand. Shen Yao patted Manager Peng on the shoulder: "Don't cry, don't cry, your good days are yet to come."
Shopkeeper Peng's eyes reddened with emotion: "Young lady, you are truly a living goddess of wealth. Please accept my bow."
Here we go again. Shen Yao had been bowed to several times since she came from West Street. Sigh, it's just a little money, is it really necessary? She raised her hand to help the shopkeeper up: "I appreciate your kindness. If you really want to thank me, then remember this slogan."
Shopkeeper Peng handed her a storage bracelet containing the jewelry she had picked out on the first floor: "Miss, please tell me, what's the slogan?"
Shen Yao made a very childish gesture, tapping her forehead with two fingers of her right hand, and then pointing to the sky to swear: "Destroy the evil forces and maintain world peace."
Shopkeeper Peng remained silent for a few moments. He didn't understand, but he did as he was told: "Eliminate the evil forces and maintain world peace."
Shen Yao was pleased: "Yes, that's it. Remember it, and spread the word when you have the chance."
Manager Peng demonstrated the action again: "Don't worry, young lady, I've remembered it."
"Very good, don't forget to send the gift to the Long family. I'm leaving now, goodbye." Shen Yao skipped downstairs, in a very happy mood. She walked away from Jin Yu Lou with her hands behind her back, her lively figure resembling a sparrow.
It was already dark when we left Jin Yu Lou. The moon hung high in the night sky, and Longyuan City was brightly lit.
After visiting two more shops, Shen Yao finally got tired. She flew into the air and looked down at the South Street of the inner city, where she saw a magnificent high-rise building that looked like a restaurant.
I had plenty of snacks and drinks today, but not a proper meal. It would be perfect to go to a restaurant, have a few drinks, and enjoy the street view from the high-rise building. Just thinking about it makes me happy.
Having identified her target, the fairy turned her sword and flew towards the tall building...
