The Leisurely Life of a Young Man in the World of Cultivation
Chapter 17 The War of Information
"Li Bing, a notice just came out saying you've been moved to the talisman counter. I'll take you there!"
Hearing this, Li Bing was both amused and exasperated.
I couldn't change it when I wanted to before, but now that I don't want to change it anymore, I've managed to.
Thinking of this, he nodded and did not refuse.
"Yes, butler."
After saying goodbye to Lu Changfeng, he followed Xie Zhixing to the talisman counter.
Besides him, there were many others like him, but most of those transferred were independent cultivators, while people like Lu Changfeng remained in their original positions.
After these adjustments, the shopping mall resumed normal operations.
However, this procurement task is like being forgotten without being canceled, but no one cares if you don't go to make the purchase.
Lu Changfeng naturally forgot about the procurement matter.
In August, the mornings in Tianxing City were already filled with the coolness of early autumn.
However, Lu Changfeng was still the same as before, wearing a short-sleeved shirt and shorts, riding his flying sword. When he arrived at the destination, he ate the bun in his hand in one bite, and then wiped his oily hands on the wall next to him.
Only then did he enter the mall and begin his official work.
I thought today would be another day of slacking off, but as soon as I sat down, the news jade slip in my storage bag moved, meaning there was new news to read!
He wasn't really interested in news before, but then he thought that he might get some important information from it, and he wasn't short of spirit stones, so he simply bought one.
During this period, he saw a lot of interesting gossip through this news, not only news from Tianxing City, but also gossip about the inner disciples of Tianxing Sect.
You could say this thing is a lifesaver for lazy people like him who love to gossip.
After seeing off the last customer, he poured himself a cup of tea, took a satisfying sip, spat out the tea leaves, and then opened the latest newspaper.
[Shocking! The Luoyun Chamber of Commerce has actually done something like this. According to sources...]
Upon reading the first article, Lu Changfeng almost couldn't help but spit it out.
Goodness, this headline has a real pre-time travel vibe. I knew I made the right choice buying this news jade slip.
After reading it once, he finally understood what it said.
The gist of it is that the reason why the Luoyun Chamber of Commerce's products are so cheap is entirely because they are all inferior products. Eating too much of them can cause spiritual energy disorder at best, and cultivation regression at worst.
They even described these resigning people as heroes who resigned in anger after learning that Luoyun Chamber of Commerce was selling inferior products, and who were threatened but still made the matter public.
After seeing these, he exclaimed, "Wow!"
If he hadn't known the specifics, he might have believed it.
The second article followed, which essentially stated that everyone should condemn the Luoyun Chamber of Commerce, and that many independent cultivators had jointly petitioned to expel the Luoyun Chamber of Commerce from Tianxing City.
The following articles were all similar news items.
Now Lu Changfeng understood. It was the local forces who had made their move. First, they inflated the price of raw materials, and then they attacked public opinion.
In normal circumstances, if you encounter these two moves, you'd probably have to admit defeat immediately.
However, to his surprise, the Luo Yun Chamber of Commerce launched a counterattack the very next day, again through a news jade slip.
This time, however, the main focus has shifted to Luoyun Shopping Mall.
First, Su Ziyuan showed the previously acquired contract to prove that the pill was absolutely fine. Then she said on it that the local forces couldn't stand that the Luoyun Chamber of Commerce paid its employees high wages, so they wanted to drive them out so that the local forces could continue to exploit the rogue cultivators.
Good heavens! As soon as this news came out, the independent cultivators in Tianxing City were in an uproar.
So their arduous journey to seek the truth is entirely due to the inhumanity of these local forces!
As a result, many people began to voice their support for the Luoyun Chamber of Commerce.
The atmosphere between the two sides quickly became tense,
However, because of this incident, many more people started causing trouble when he returned to the sect after get off work.
As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw a guy he had never gotten along with since childhood blocking his way with a few henchmen.
And he is Mu Yuan. His parents and his own parents are all alchemists. However, because he has an older brother who is an inner disciple, he is very arrogant and domineering in the entire outer sect area.
"Hey, isn't this Lu Changfeng? I heard you're really broke lately, only making 150 spirit stones a month."
"How about this, you beg me, and if you beg me I'll give you a little something!"
After saying that, the group burst into laughter.
However, faced with this scene, Lu Changfeng not only wasn't angry, but instead laughed.
As a time traveler, fighting or arguing with this immature kid is not very useful. He will continue to do what he was doing afterward. Only by striking at what he is most proud of can you truly solve the problem once and for all.
"Oh! Two hundred spirit stones, that's quite a lot!"
"But I have a question I'd like to ask you!"
Hearing this, Mu Yuan's smile widened even more.
"Sure, ask me anything!"
Seeing his expression, Lu Changfeng pretended to be curious and asked,
"Since you look down on 150 spirit stones so much, do you have a lot of spirit stones on hand?"
Upon hearing that the question was only about this, Mu Yuan immediately raised his proud, chubby face.
"Hmph, that's right, I currently have five thousand spirit stones in my storage bag!"
hiss!
Goodness, this guy's parents really gave him a lot. I only earned 1,200 in ten years, but this fat guy now has 5,000.
But that's perfect, I was just worried you didn't have enough spirit stones!
"Oh! So how much of those five thousand spirit stones did you earn yourself?"
The other party was completely dumbfounded upon hearing this.
"What do you mean by that?"
However, he simply shook his head and shrugged.
"My point is simple: I don't want to be the boss of a little kid!"
Upon hearing this, Mu Yuan's face darkened instantly. The last thing he wanted to hear was someone call him a brat, especially by Lu Changfeng or in front of his underlings.
Now that both conditions have been met, how can he not be angry!
"I'm all grown up now, not a little kid anymore!"
However, faced with his anger, Lu Changfeng laughed even more heartily.
"Oh! You've grown up, I didn't realize! I'm so sorry!"
"But now that you're all grown up, those five thousand low-grade spirit stones in your storage bag were all earned by you, right?"
Mu Yuan froze on the spot, but Lu Changfeng did not stop.
"Hey! Why aren't you saying anything? Does that mean all the money you have came from your parents?!"
"Oh my god, no way, no way? Could it be that the dignified Mu Yuan is actually just a little brat who only knows how to ask his family for pocket money?!"
"After spending all these spirit stones, are you going to hug your parents' legs and cry a couple of times?"
"Although I do earn less, it's all money I earned myself, unlike you, who just cries and begs your mother when you're broke!"
"Why don't you change your name to Xiaobao? That way, no one will object when you cry while clinging to your mom's leg!"
After saying that, Lu Changfeng turned around and went back home, then slammed the door shut!
But at this moment he was smiling very happily.
