Keeping a low profile in the world of cultivating immortals

"Uncle Han, say goodbye!"

"Hey, Li Xiaoyou, don't you really want to buy some spiritual rice?" Han Tiezhu refused to give up, "People are like iron rice or steel, Li Xiaoyou..."

"Next time for sure, next time for sure!"

Wu Tao handed over his hands and walked out of Ding District with the baggage on his back. He made some calculations and realized that after selling so many spiritual stones, it was not the time to enjoy the spiritual rice.

Just buy some Fanmi and eat it, why don't you just pour more Ye Xiang?

Now he has to go to the Fangshi Leasing Office to pay taxes.

Anyone who successfully trades in the market must issue a transaction certificate and then pay taxes. If tax evasion occurs, once caught by the market, the consequences will be disastrous.

Wu Tao was a good citizen who paid taxes in his past and present lives.

Besides, for the 10% tax, it’s really not worth it to be caught by the market.

The transaction amount was fourteen low-grade spiritual stones, with a 10% tax, which was one low-grade spiritual stone plus forty broken spiritual stones. He carefully took out a low-grade spiritual stone, and then took out the remaining broken spiritual stones that Zhang Li lent him. ,Just right.

"Keep your tax receipts safe. You can collect them for statistics at the end of the year. If it reaches a certain amount, there will be other benefits." The clerk who collected the transaction tax reminded Wu Tao.

Wu Tao took it and thanked him quickly: "Thanks for the tip."

After coming out, I carefully put the tax receipt close to my body and calculated in my mind:

"There are still 13 low-grade spiritual stones and six broken spiritual stones left. If you pay the rent for six yuan and fifteen broken spiritual stones, then there are still six and ninety-one broken spiritual stones left. I will give Zhang Li one piece. I want to buy demon silk and sparkling stone, um..."

"Would not it be……"

The joy after selling the robe suddenly disappeared completely, and his face turned into a bitter melon.

"Why!"

With a long sigh, he came to a shop that sold weapon refining materials and asked, "Fellow Taoist, how do you sell sparkling stones and demon silk?"

The shop assistant replied: "One piece of sparkling stone, two low-grade spiritual stones, one pound of demon silk, one piece of low-grade spiritual stone, how much do you want, fellow Taoist?"

"Bring me six spark stones and two pounds of demon silk."

As if he saw the words Lingshi-5 floating above his head, Wu Tao felt like his heart was twisting in a knife, it hurt so much.

Carrying the baggage carrying the silk of the Sparkling Stone Demon, Wu Tao did not dare to stay in this market for any longer. He walked through several more alleys and made sure that no one was following him before entering Xinde Alley.

He is now "extremely rich", so there is nothing wrong with being careful.

Although the West Outer City is nominally under the jurisdiction of the disciples of Wuquan Mountain, and they provide shelter and safety to the casual cultivators, there are always some desperadoes.

As soon as he returned to his residence, he saw a fat figure standing at the door, like a rich man. When he saw Wu Tao, he snorted coldly: "I thought you were going to evade the rent..."

Wu Tao hurriedly stepped forward with a flattering smile on his face. He bent a little while speaking and said, "Manager Zhou, how dare you say this..."

The expression on Yaxing Zhou's manager's face softened, and he said: "I'm sorry, I don't dare. Okay, without further ado, pay this month's rent, two low-grade spirit stones for the rent, plus the four dollars you owed before." A deposit of 1 block of low-grade spiritual stones, as well as other expenses, totaling 6 blocks of low-grade spiritual stones and 15 broken spiritual stones.

Wu Tao immediately took out the spirit stone bag, poured out all the six low-grade spirit stones in his palm, counted out fifteen broken spirit stones, handed them over, and said, "Manager Zhou, they have been prepared a long time ago. Please order some."

Manager Zhou nodded, and took out a storage bag with his left hand. He saw the spirit stones in his right hand move, and the pieces of spirit stones disappeared in an instant, but they went into the storage bag.

Wu Tao looked at it with envy. This is a storage bag. I wonder when I can have one? I wonder if I can ask Manager Zhou to let me touch...

Seeing his envious look, Manager Zhou didn't care and said, "Okay, I'll go to the next house to collect the rent first."

"Steward Zhou, please wait..." Wu Tao stopped Steward Zhou, and took out ten broken spiritual stones from the storage bag, presented them with both hands, and said: "I first came to the West Outer City and I was short of money. Thanks to Steward Zhou You are willing to give me a deposit on credit. For this small gesture, please treat Manager Zhou to a cup of tea."

Manager Zhou looked at Wu Tao, then he chuckled for a moment and took the broken spiritual stone from Wu Tao's hand: "You are very sensible, kid. It's not worth taking such a big risk and paying you the deposit on credit."

Wu Tao was overjoyed when he saw that he accepted it. He nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, yes, manager Zhou is a very good person."

Manager Zhou put down the broken spirit stone and waved his hand: "Okay, I know the difficulties of your casual cultivators. You must first get rid of the evil spirit in your body. Only if you stay here for a long time can I live for a long time." Collect rent.”

"Ah..." Wu Tao's face was startled, "Boss Zhou... Since you know that I am possessed by evil spirits, why are you still willing to rent the house to me? You are not afraid..."

Manager Zhou chuckled: "Afraid it will turn into a haunted house? What are you afraid of? If you die, everything on you will be mine. Besides, the last guest of the room you live in died in it."

Seeing Wu Tao's frightened face, he smiled and said: "On the road to cultivating immortals, it is not normal to have disasters. Don't worry about whether it is a dangerous house or not. In this Western Outer City, if a lot of casual cultivators break through in seclusion, their life span will be exhausted. Died in the room..."

"Okay, I still have a few blocks of rent that I haven't confiscated, so I won't chat with you anymore."

Watching Steward Zhou's fat back go away, Wu Tao was in a daze for a while before coming back to his senses, patted Fu Mu's cheek, and said to himself: "Steward Zhou is right, people who cultivate immortality, why do you value this? . Besides, Manager Zhou saw that I was possessed by evil spirits and was willing to rent a house to me and give me credit. This is already a favor to me."

"Even if I die and Manager Zhou takes away my wealth, it will still be...even the burial expenses..."

Wu Tao muttered, came to Zhang Li's door, and knocked on the door.

Bang!

Opening the door, Zhang Li's face with the charm of a young woman appeared in front of him. He took out a low-grade spiritual stone from his arms, handed it over, and said with a smile: "Fellow Daoist Zhang, I owe you the spiritual stone I owe you."

Zhang Li glanced at it, took the spirit stone, and said: "You are a trustworthy person. If you say you will pay it back in two days, you will pay it back in two days."

"That's right, Fellow Daoist Zhang can trust me, and I will naturally not let down Fellow Daoist Zhang's trust. But in general, I still have to thank Fellow Daoist Zhang for being willing to lend me the spirit stone. Lending me the spirit stone is equivalent to saving my life..."

Zhang Li heard this and said: "It's just a spiritual stone. It's not as serious as you said. Okay, let's not talk about it anymore. I have to practice."

"Then... Fellow Daoist Zhang, take your leave!" Wu Tao cupped his hands and watched Zhang Li close the door.

Wu Tao returned to his room, took out the bag of spiritual stones, and counted eighty-one broken spiritual stones. He couldn't help but sigh. How could these spiritual stones be so untouchable? In one day, they were all clean again.

"Life is too difficult!"

With a sigh, he thought in his mind that he had become a first-level junior weapon refiner, and couldn't help but feel happy. He took out the spark stone and demon silk, and pounded the abacus in his mind.

"There are two refining materials here. As long as you refine one robe, you will receive fourteen low-grade spiritual stones. If you use them all to refining materials and refine two more robes, you will receive twenty Eight low-grade spiritual stones..."

"Hahaha, the spiritual stones will only accumulate more and more, and life will become more and more promising..."

"The Evil-Breaking Talisman can be purchased soon..."

"By the way, after you get rid of the evil spirit in your body, go to the Wuquan Mountain Artifact Refining Hall to take the exam to get a certificate as an Weapon Refiner. With the certificate, people who want to bargain will have no excuses. Moreover, stall fees, transaction taxes You can get some reductions..."

"I just don't know if it's difficult to take the exam..."

After calculating and calculating, Wu Tao just felt that his life would get better and better in the future. He was so excited that he grinned from ear to ear.
