Mortals: Take Mo Juren at the start

"Tianyi Building!" Looking up at the top of the gate, I saw a huge plaque hanging on it with three large and powerful characters on it.

"This is the property of our Tianhun Sect. The person we want to meet is the current owner of Tianyi Building. This person is not very talented and has not made much progress in cultivation. He has only reached the initial stage of Nascent Soul cultivation. However, he is definitely a true genius in business. With his help, the store will definitely be fine."

Ling Xueyi gave a brief explanation and then walked straight towards the gate, with Mo Juren following closely behind.

Tianyi Building is not the largest, but it is not small either, and its business is extremely prosperous. There are countless guests coming in and out every moment, making it extremely bustling.

As soon as he entered the first floor hall, a sharp-eyed waiter came up to him. When he was about to say hello, Ling Xueyi interrupted him by raising her hand and showing a special black token in her hand.

"The Tianzi token, it turns out you are a senior from the sect, please step down." The shopkeeper not far away saw the Tianzi on the black token, his face suddenly changed, and he quickly walked forward, first waving the waiter away, and then bowed respectfully and said,

"Two seniors, what's the important matter?"

"Is Cheng Hua here?"

"Yes, but the owner of the building has been in seclusion recently and doesn't like to be disturbed. However, since you two are seniors, it is naturally a different matter. Please follow me to the seventh floor, and I will notify you later."

"Lead the way!"

Led by the shopkeeper, the two walked straight to the stairs and then went upstairs.

In the hall, many cultivators were discussing the matter. The conversation just now was one aspect, but the key was the cultivation level of that woman. No one present could figure it out clearly, so they naturally became more curious.

Soon they reached the seventh floor. When they entered a hall, the shopkeeper said respectfully again:

"Please wait here for a moment, seniors. I will go and inform the host."

After saying that, he turned and left. Mo Juren and Ling Xueyi found a seat and sat down. They didn't say anything, but just waited patiently.

After a while, the shopkeeper did not return, but two pretty girls came, each holding a cup of tea. Before they even walked in, a unique tea fragrance filled the air.

"Good tea!" Mo Juren praised in his heart. Although he had not tasted it yet, after being immersed in this tea for so many years, just a hint of tea fragrance was enough to tell its quality.

When the maid finished brewing the tea and slowly poured it into the cup, he discovered that the tea in the cup was a bright blood red, as if what he saw was not tea but a cup of pure spiritual blood.

Apart from anything else, the appearance alone is enough to attract attention.

As for the taste, after Mo Juren took a light sip, he felt a strange tea fragrance spreading between his lips and teeth, and then penetrated into his whole body, making him feel warm and comfortable all over.

“This is Phoenix Blood Tea, a specialty of our Tianhun Sect. Not only does it have a unique taste, it also has the effect of tempering the body. Some similar elixirs are incomparable.

However, the production of this tea is not high, so most of it is only circulated within the sect and cannot be bought on the market. "Noticing his curiosity, Ling Xueyi immediately explained.

"Phoenix Blood Tea, this name is quite appropriate." Mo Juren smiled and was about to say something else, but at this moment, the shopkeeper who had just left suddenly walked in, followed by a middle-aged man who looked to be around thirty years old, with a handsome face and an elegant temperament.

The moment he saw Ling Xueyi, his expression suddenly changed, and he immediately took a few steps forward to pay his respects:

"It is the Great Elder who has come in person. I am sorry for not coming to greet you. I hope you will forgive me."

When these words were spoken, the shopkeeper beside him was also shocked. Although he had long guessed that it might be a senior in the sect, he did not expect that it was the great elder who was always elusive and whose existence was second only to the sect master.

Although he was just an outer disciple and had heard of the great reputation of the great elder, he had never seen him in person. Fortunately, there was no neglect in the reception process just now, otherwise, wouldn’t he be finished?

When he thought of this, he couldn't help but shiver.

Mo Juren was also a little surprised. The other party turned out to be the grand elder of the Tianhun Sect, and he had not revealed any information before!

"I came in a hurry, why should I blame you? Get up!" Ling Xueyi nodded slightly, and waited until the other party stood up before continuing.

"I came here this time because I need your help with something."

"You want my help?" Cheng Hua was stunned. He was just a disciple who had lost hope in cultivation and had turned to business. His cultivation at the early Nascent Soul stage was already the limit of his life. What could the Great Elder possibly need his help with?

However, he did not dare to ask more questions, but immediately stated his attitude.

"Just tell me what you want to do, I will do my best."

"It's not a big deal..." Ling Xueyi nodded, then pointed to Mo Juren beside her and said,

"This person is an old friend of mine. He just arrived in Tianyuan City not long ago and is now working as a Qingming Guard. He wants to open a shop in the market..."

He briefly explained the whole story, and after listening to it, Cheng Hua suddenly looked enlightened.

So that's how it is. He may not be able to help with other things, but business matters are very familiar to him.

But Senior Mo in front of him was actually an old friend of the Great Elder, which was really enviable! And to be able to serve as a Qingming Guard, he must be a powerful person in the Spiritualization Stage.

What surprised him was that this person with unlimited potential was also planning to open a store? It was really unexpected. Could it be that he had a unique interest in business like himself?

"I understand what the Great Elder means. There is no problem in providing the supply of goods, but it is not easy to rent a store that meets the requirements. At least there is no suitable one at this time. We need to wait a while."

"How long do we have to wait?" Mo Juren's expression changed slightly and he asked again.

"About half a year." Cheng Hua smiled and then reminded again.

"It's a coincidence. There just happened to be such a shop, and it has been in business for many years. Business has always been good. It was because of some personal matters that the owner of the shop had to give up. Because of the good location, it is very popular. If Senior Mo wants to rent it, it will definitely cost a lot."

"Half a year is not too long. As for the issue of expenses, I will take care of it myself. But during this period of time, I still need Brother Cheng to help pay more attention."

"It's just a small matter, I'll leave it to you, junior."

After finishing the business, Cheng Hua reminded Mo Juren of many things to pay attention to when opening a store, which benefited him a lot.

"Oh, there is one more thing. I have some magic weapons that I want to sell. Where is the best place to sell them?" Mo Juren asked as his mind suddenly moved. "If it is just an ordinary level, then it can be sold anywhere. The price is not much different. You can even sell it directly to Tianyi Building. I guarantee that you will be satisfied with the price.

But if it is something precious, it is not appropriate to sell it directly. It is best to choose to auction it. It happens that the auction will start again in three months. At that time, the senior can choose any auction house. "Cheng Hua did not hide anything and immediately made a suggestion.

"Auction?" Mo Juren was a little surprised.

"It is Cheng who has neglected it. Senior Mo has just arrived in Tianyuan City and naturally does not know that an auction of wild items is held here every three years. And on this occasion, some larger stores in the city will also take this opportunity to hold similar auctions..." Cheng Hua hurriedly explained.

"So that's how it is..." Mo Juren suddenly realized and fell into deep thought. After a moment, he suddenly waved his arm and rays of spiritual light shot out and all landed on the table.

"This..." Looking at the more than ten magic weapons in front of him, Cheng Hua couldn't help but be stunned.

After so many years of working in the business world, he naturally has some vision and can see the quality of these magic weapons. Although they are not top-notch, they are all top-quality.

It was really unexpected that the other party took out more than ten items at one time. No wonder he was so confident before that he could cover the cost of renting a shop. He was indeed confident.

However, Ling Xueyi, who was standing next to him, narrowed her cold and bright eyes when she saw these things.

She already had some guesses in her mind, but she wasn't 100% sure. However, she just looked at the other person meaningfully but didn't say much.

Mo Juren naturally felt the former's gaze, and couldn't help feeling a little uneasy. After all, some of these treasures were snatched from the Tianhun Sect.

Even though he knew the other party wouldn't do anything to him, he still felt a little embarrassed.

"Senior, you took out these things, are you planning to take action directly?" Putting aside his thoughts, Cheng Hua asked hurriedly.

"That depends on what price Mr. Cheng can offer?" Mo Juren nodded and did not deny it. As expected, Cheng Hua was overjoyed when he heard this.

"Don't worry, senior. Cheng will definitely give you a price that satisfies you."

"Don't worry!" Before the other party could start to evaluate, Mo Juren suddenly interrupted and took out a list and handed it to the other party.

"Here are some materials I need. If you have them, you can use them to pay for them."

"Materials?" Cheng Hua took the list and was stunned after just one look. Not only were the various materials listed on it numerous, but each one was also very valuable.

I don’t know what this Senior Mo is planning to do, and why he needs so many precious resources?

"Tianyi Building has some resources, but it can only produce a dozen or so types. If you want more materials, you can only look for them in other shops."

"More than a dozen?" Mo Juren was slightly surprised, but he was instantly overjoyed in his heart. It was worthy of being Tianyuan City. A medium-sized shop alone could gather more than a dozen kinds of materials at one time. The strength of its foundation was unexpectedly strong.

"Indeed, there are only a dozen or so kinds. After all, the materials you need are all rare treasures. But you don't need to be disappointed. This is Tianyuan City. As for the richness of resources, even the major cities in the three realms and seven lands cannot compare to it. As long as you can afford the price, you can find almost anything." Cheng Hua thought the other party was dissatisfied, so he hurriedly explained. At this time, Ling Xueyi next to him also became interested and said immediately.

"Bring me the list so I can see it."

"Oh..." Cheng Hua didn't dare to refuse and quickly handed over the list respectfully.

After a moment, Ling Xueyi also showed a look of surprise. She turned to look at Mo Juren and asked curiously:

"What do you want to do with so many precious resources?"

"It's just a reserve, in case of future need!" Mo Juren laughed, but when he said this, Ling Xueyi rolled her eyes.

"Forget about that. I have some of the materials above, and I can exchange them with you, but I won't give you any discount on the price."

"You have one too? That's great. The price is negotiable as long as it's not too outrageous." This was another good news, and Mo Juren naturally became even happier.

It is worthy of being the spiritual world. Not only are the resources extremely rich, but there are also hidden dragons and crouching tigers everywhere. It will become much easier to collect them in the future.

"I'm glad you agree, but I don't like the treasures in front of me. Are there any better ones?" Ling Xueyi nodded, and then asked back with a smile.

"Uh... there are some more..." Mo Juren probably guessed the other party's intention and sighed in his heart. Some things will be exposed after all, so he was too lazy to worry about it.

"Really? Then I'll have to wait and see..." Ling Xueyi blinked her bright eyes, then waved her jade arm lightly, and suddenly a stream of spiritual light also shot out...

……

"Now you can tell me what happened in the Qihuang Mountain ruins? Also, what happened to the disciples of my Tianhun Sect?" Outside the market, in a remote place, Ling Xueyi waved her hand and cast a shielding light shield, then asked with a serious expression.

"It's nothing, just some minor incidents. As for the disciples of your sect, they are naturally safe and sound..." Mo Juren knew that he couldn't avoid this hurdle. Fortunately, it was nothing to tell it now, so he simply stopped hiding it and recounted the situation of that day in detail.

"Great! So you mean everything is safe and sound? Not only did you rob all their treasures, but as the great elder, I still have to run around for you. Don't you feel guilty?" After hearing this, Ling Xueyi was immediately furious.

"Didn't I know you when I robbed them? If I had known that we would develop into such a relationship, I would never have done that." Mo Juren hurriedly explained a few words, but Ling Xueyi was such a person, how could she be easily fooled by such words?

"That sounds nice. Now that we know each other, can you return the things you stole?"

"No!" This time, Mo Juren did not hesitate at all and answered decisively.

"I snatched these treasures with my own ability, why should I return them? As for your disciples, who can they blame for their own lack of strength? It's a great fortune to be able to keep their lives."

"So I have to thank you on their behalf for your kindness, right?"

"You're welcome. We're all family now, so it's only natural."

"You..." (End of Chapter)
