Grass Jelly Supplier
Chapter 857
At 5 p.m., Xiancao Pavilion opened on time. Chen San and Lu Er were drinking tea and chatting in the hall, while Shi Yue was drinking tea and reading on the third floor.
Not long after, a beautiful girl in a blue skirt came in.
Chen San hurriedly stood up to greet her, and said with a smile on his face: "Senior, is there anything I can do for you?"
"Where is Fellow Daoist Li Mubai? I have a business to discuss with him."
"The shopkeeper is upstairs, please follow me."
Chen San smiled and invited the girl in the blue skirt upstairs. When they came to the third floor, Chen San walked quickly to Shi Yue and whispered a few words.
"Okay, I know, you go down! No need to bring tea up."
Chen San responded and bowed and retreated.
The girl in the blue skirt walked quickly to the chair next to Shi Yue and sat down, picked up a piece of spiritual cake and put it in her mouth, looking very familiar.
Shi Yue chuckled and said softly, "Yan'er, why did you come to me so soon? Is there something urgent?"
The girl in the blue skirt was none other than Li Yan.
Li Yan chuckled and said, "Brother, I'm here to borrow spirit stones from you this time."
"Borrow spirit stones? Are the spirit stones I gave you not enough?" Shi Yue frowned slightly and asked in confusion.
He gave Li Yan more than 500,000 spirit stones, and it's only been a few days, and Li Yan has actually spent them all? Based on his understanding of Li Yan, it's impossible!
"It's not me who wants to borrow spiritual stones, but the headmaster uncle wants to borrow spiritual stones from you."
Shi Yue was confused and said, "The headmaster uncle wants to borrow spiritual stones from me? What's going on? Yan'er, please explain clearly."
"Hehe, the headmaster uncle learned that the Ancient Sword Sect was plotting against our Taixu Sect, and planned to fight with the Ancient Sword Sect to the end. To put it bluntly, it depends on who has more spiritual stones. We will purchase elixirs from other elixir stores, raise the price a little and sell them in Baidan Hall. If the Ancient Sword Sect is really targeting our Taixu Sect, we will make sure that the Ancient Sword Sect will suffer a big loss." Li Yan laughed and told the story.
Shi Yue suddenly realized and said, "So that's how it is. But our sect doesn't even have the funds to maintain operations? You want to borrow spirit stones from me? Who proposed this?"
"Our sect is in a state of disrepair and urgently needs spirit stones. The Ancient Sword Sect has annexed the Wind and Fire Sect and the Colorful Cloud Valley. It is financially strong. If we don't seek external help, we can't beat the Ancient Sword Sect at all. Sister Murong asked to borrow spirit stones from you. The head master uncle asked her to try. The number is not much. 600,000 spirit stones are enough. If it doesn't work, 500,000 will do."
"600,000 spirit stones are not a difficult task for me, but why do you have to come in person? Can't Senior Sister Murong come?"
Li Yan blinked and joked, "Hehe, brother, I know you still care about Sister Murong."
"Girl, when did you learn to talk nonsense?" Shi Yue tapped Li Yan's forehead with his finger.
"Sister Murong is busy with the business of Baidan Hall and can't leave. Besides, her identity is too sensitive. She is worried that Gujian Sect will send someone to monitor her, so she asked me to go. Hehe, brother, don't worry. When I go back, I will definitely say a few good words for you."
Shi Yue chuckled, took out a blue storage bag from his arms, and handed it to Li Yan: "There are 700,000 spirit stones in it. You can use it first! Tell me if it's not enough. By the way, you should practice hard instead of thinking about messy things."
"I know, brother, these cakes are really delicious. I'll take them all away."
After Li Yan said that, he packed up all the plates of spirit cakes.
Shi Yue gave a few instructions and let Li Yan leave.
Early in the morning of the second day, Shi Yue strolled around Feixian City. When he passed Baidan Hall, he walked in.
Baidan Hall was unusually lively. Shi Yue carefully discovered many Gujian Sect disciples in disguise, but he didn't point them out.
He observed and found that the price of the elixir used by the foundation-building cultivators had increased. The increase was not very large. It was okay to buy a small amount, but if it was purchased in large quantities, it would cost a lot of spirit stones.
"Is it Senior Li Mubai? Uncle Murong invites you." Ye Chen walked over and said respectfully.
Shi Yue nodded and followed Ye Chen upstairs.
"Uncle Murong, Senior Li is here." Ye Chen knocked on the door of a room on the third floor and said softly.
"I know, let Fellow Daoist Li come in, you can leave!" Murong Xiaoxiao's voice came from the room.
Ye Chen responded and bowed and left.
Shi Yue pushed open the door and walked in.
Murong Xiaoxiao wore a light blue palace dress today, with a green hairpin on her head, looking bright and beautiful.
"Junior Brother Shi, you are here, sit down!" Murong Xiaoxiao smiled at Shi Yue and said sweetly.
Shi Yue nodded and sat down obediently.
"Junior Brother Shi, I like the cakes you sent me. You are so thoughtful." Murong Xiaoxiao blushed and said shyly.
"Cakes? When did I send you cakes?" Shi Yue was slightly stunned.
The smile on Murong Xiaoxiao's face suddenly froze, and she frowned and said, "Didn't you ask Sister Li Yan to bring me some cakes? She said it was sent by you, isn't it?"
Shi Yue heard this and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He said why did Li Yan pack up the cakes and take them away? It turned out that she wanted to borrow flowers to offer to Buddha and give them to Murong Xiaoxiao.
Shi Yue looked at Murong Xiaoxiao and wanted to say no, but after hesitating for a moment, he still said with a stiff upper lip: "I asked Yan'er to send it to you. I think those pastries are delicious, so I sent you some."
Murong Xiaoxiao's expression eased, she smiled and said: "It is indeed delicious. The pastries yesterday were salty, but I prefer sweet ones."
Shi Yue smiled awkwardly, did not say more on this issue, and quickly changed the subject: "Senior Sister Murong, what is the situation of Baidan Hall now? Is our sect short of spirit stones?"
"The headmaster sent people to purchase a large number of elixirs for the foundation-building period overnight and raised the price for sale. The people of the Ancient Sword Sect were really fooled and bought a lot of elixirs sold by the Baidan Hall. Hum, I want to see who has more spirit stones. The headmaster said that we must fight to the end and never let the conspiracy of the Ancient Sword Sect succeed." Murong Xiaoxiao said this, with a murderous look on her face.
Shi Yue nodded and said, "That's good. By the way, do you have any news about Grandmaster Zhou Zhenyu?"
"No, Grandmaster Zhou should be in seclusion and won't show up in the short term! If you want to see Grandmaster Zhou, I can ask the headmaster uncle for you. The headmaster uncle is very grateful for lending us 700,000 spiritual stones. Junior Brother Shi, don't worry, I know that this is the spiritual stones on the account of the Immortal Grass Pavilion, and I will return it as soon as possible."
"No hurry, it's not too late to return it after our sect has overcome this crisis. There are still a lot of spiritual stones on the account."
Shi Yue chatted with Murong Xiaoxiao for a few words, then said goodbye and left.
For the next three days, Shi Yue stayed indoors, and the Immortal Grass Pavilion opened and closed on time.
During this period, Li Yan came once to report on the situation of Baidan Hall.
At the beginning, Gu Jianmen sent people to buy the elixirs sold by Baidan Hall, but the number was constantly decreasing. Obviously, Gu Jianmen did not have enough spiritual stones.
To some extent, Taixu Sect has gained a certain advantage, but this situation is only temporary. Gujian Sect has annexed Fenghuo Sect and Caixia Valley, so it is impossible for them to lack spiritual stones.
…
A secret room in Gujian Tower.
Li Haonan was reporting something to Dugu Xin, and Dugu Xin's face was a little gloomy.
"How did Taixu Sect take out so many pills? Even if they have inventory, after three years of confrontation with the Demonic Path, Taixu Sect's pills should not be much left!" Dugu Xin said with a frown.
"This... Disciple doesn't know. Five hundred thousand spiritual stones have been spent. Uncle Dugu, our people just bought all the pills on the shelf, and the disciples of Taixu Sect immediately took out a batch. By the way, Taixu Sect's pills are more expensive than those on the market. It's okay to buy a few, but if you buy a large number, it will cost a lot of spiritual stones. Disciple guess, Taixu Sect probably found something, bought pills from other pill shops, put them in Baidan Hall for sale, and deliberately let us buy them so that we will suffer a loss."
Dugu Xin pondered for a moment , and ordered: "Forget it, stop buying the elixirs sold by Baidan Hall, sell a batch of the elixirs we bought, exchange them for spirit stones, and purchase hundred-year-old spirit medicines. There are still many days to come! I don't believe that the people of Taixu Sect don't buy hundred-year-old spirit medicines to make elixirs. There will be a time when they ask me for help."
Li Haonan breathed a sigh of relief and flattered: "Uncle Dugu is wise, and I admire you."
Dugu Xin rolled his eyes at him and said unhappily: "Less flattery, more work."
Li Haonan smiled bitterly and nodded.
