Our eldest brother never hides good things from us.
Chapter 25 It's Good to Be Rich
Chang Wen sat behind the makeshift wooden table, looking at the array of things laid out before him. Suddenly, he had an epiphany.
There were more than a dozen Nascent Soul Realm cultivators, each possessing an aura as profound as the sea. Any one of them would be an exceptional individual, a true dragon among men.
Now, however, people are gathering here for 300,000 mid-grade spirit stones, obediently queuing up to apply for jobs.
"As expected, there's no shortage of oxen and horses no matter where you are. As long as you pay enough, everyone is an ox or horse."
Chang Wen sighed inwardly. On the surface, however, he remained calm, picked up the sixteen resumes, and glanced at them briefly.
Even knowing these people were extraordinary, they were still shocked after reading their resumes. All sixteen people present were at the level of holy sons and daughters, and possessed extremely high prestige.
Three of them are even ranked among the top fifty on the Haoran Immortal Sect's list of 100 outstanding individuals.
The Haoran Immortal Sect's Top 100 Ranking is a list of the highest combat power among the younger generation of the Haoran Immortal Sect, and it is completely unbiased.
Every person on the list is an unparalleled genius, invincible among their peers. Even if they are only on the list for a day, it is enough for them to become famous throughout the Northern Wilderness and achieve great things in the future.
Those who can consistently remain on the list are considered candidates for peak master and receive much attention from the sect.
The times are made wonderful by these people.
The times are saddened by these people.
The disciples of the Haoran Immortal Sect are as numerous as carp crossing a river, one in ten thousand. But when they see them, they can only look up in awe, unable to even muster the thought of pursuing them.
If an ordinary cultivator is fortunate enough to exchange blows with a prodigy on the Hundred Heroes Ranking, it would be enough for them to boast about for half their life in a tavern.
Those outstanding individuals who manage to squeeze into the top fifty are like the blazing sun; their every move is legendary.
"It's good to be rich."
Chang Wen sighed again, suddenly realizing he'd unlocked a new way to cultivate immortality. A bold idea then popped into his head: once this matter was over, should he hire a few Holy Sons as bodyguards?
He can't sleep peacefully without bodyguards watching him.
However, now was not the time to think about such things. Chang Wen returned to reality and picked out the three ranked ones: "Lei Yuanwu of Zixiao Peak, Xiao Li of Youming Peak, and Jian Jiuxiao of Tianjian Peak."
As soon as he finished speaking, three people looked at Chang Wen.
Chang Wen stood up and invited the three to the side. Then, looking at the remaining thirteen people, he clasped his hands in a salute and said, "Fellow disciples, thank you for coming. Please take these spirit stones as travel expenses. We hope to cooperate again in the future."
After saying that, he threw out thirteen Qiankun bags. Each Qiankun bag contained one hundred mid-grade spirit stones.
A person who values things is never short of money.
"Senior Brother Chang, you're too kind. This is my communication talisman. In the future, if you need any work like this, you don't need to make a big fuss; just contact me directly."
The rejected prince was not surprised, but actively sought another opportunity. Forget about saving face; it's all about making money, nothing shameful about it.
With him taking the lead, the other twelve holy sons were not to be outdone and handed their respective communication talismans to Chang Wen.
There's no other reason than that Chang Wen gave them far too much.
Three hundred thousand mid-grade spirit stones—even for a Saint Son like them, it would take ten years, or even longer, to save up that much without eating or drinking.
What's more, they didn't do anything, yet Chang Wen gave them one hundred mid-grade spirit stones for travel expenses. Where else could they find such a good job? Clinging to Chang Wen's coattails was undoubtedly the wisest choice.
After receiving the spirit stones, the holy sons stepped aside, none of them in a hurry to leave. They all knew that a great battle between the holy sons was inevitable. Watching the battle would be immensely beneficial to them.
It allows one to understand oneself and others, and also to see the gaps between oneself and other holy sons, thus identifying shortcomings and making improvements. It's a win-win situation.
This scene left everyone present deeply moved.
How could a dignified Holy Son be eliminated in a single encounter?
Most importantly, after being eliminated, those holy sons were not angry at all, but instead competed to get another chance.
It's unbelievable that someone as powerful as the Holy Son would lower himself for money. Many people's idealized image of the Holy Son has been completely shattered, and they sincerely sigh, "It's good to be rich."
The story didn't stop because of what these people thought. Chang Wen returned to his seat, looked at the three who remained, and said:
"Junior brothers, here is a deposit of 100,000 spirit stones. However, I must make it clear beforehand that this transaction is for the Peak Competition reward. After defeating the Holy Son of Snow Lotus Peak, you must not attack each other again. If you agree, please accept this deposit."
To be on the safe side, Chang Wen chose to hire three people at the same time.
The three of them were slightly taken aback.
I thought Chang Wen would put the three of them in a competition, but unexpectedly, he hired all three of them at the same time. Is it arrogance? Or prudence?
The worldview of the wealthy is indeed different from that of ordinary people.
However, since they could get 100,000 mid-grade spirit stones without having to compete, they naturally had no objections. After readily agreeing, they set off to participate in the peak competition.
"Let's go to the competition venue too."
Chang Wen carried Shen Nianqing on his back, and led Lin Yuan and Su Xiaoman to oversee the battle.
Shen Nianqing witnessed the scene and remembered it. Chang Wen had spared no expense, spending 500,000 mid-grade spirit stones to treat her illness; he was truly devoted to her.
However, she is now very worried about how Chang Wen will repay these spirit stones afterward. If he can't repay them, won't Chang Wen become a laughing stock of the Haoran Immortal Sect?
What she couldn't understand was that after Chang Wen borrowed 500,000 mid-grade spirit stones, he directly gave her, Lin Yuan, and Su Xiaoman each 100,000 mid-grade spirit stones.
Just now, Chang Wen gave Jian Jiuxiao and the other two 100,000 each, totaling 300,000. That adds up to 600,000. Subtracting the 500,000 borrowed, does that mean Chang Wen originally had 100,000?
If you already have 100,000, why did you borrow 10,000 from Han Xiao not long ago?
She thought and thought but still couldn't figure it out, so she asked curiously, "Senior Brother, is our Haoran Peak very wealthy?"
"You just realized that?"
Chang Wen smiled.
How rich?
Shen Nianqing frowned. How come she hadn't noticed this before?
Lin Yuan and Su Xiaoman, who were standing nearby, also perked up their ears.
"We're just averagely wealthy, but we can definitely support you guys."
Chang Wen answered casually.
With the Snow Lotus Peak competition fast approaching, time was of the essence. So after borrowing money from Han Xiao, he went all out, giving each of the three 100,000 mid-grade spirit stones.
All are guaranteed minimums, but the quantity is quite considerable.
He instantly became a millionaire, possessing three million mid-grade spirit stones. After deducting the three hundred thousand given to Jian Jiuxiao and the other two, he still had two million seven hundred thousand left, making him incredibly wealthy!
He's probably the richest disciple in the entire Haoran Immortal Sect.
Moreover, he has a huge sum of 200,000 yuan to invest, with a guaranteed minimum of 2 million mid-grade spirit stones. However, he doesn't plan to go all in.
Two hundred thousand mid-grade spirit stones represent two hundred thousand chances to get a refund. That's enough to create countless surprises.
Without delay, he immediately began investing in his three fellow students in rotation, making the most of every investment opportunity.
Shen Nianqing and the other two exchanged bewildered glances, unsure of what to say. Their senior brother was truly something else, spending money like it was his Achilles' heel.
You can’t spend it all, you can’t spend it all.
Snow Lotus Peak Master Xue Wuqing followed behind Chang Wen, watching this scene and secretly cursing Fairy Biyou for being a scoundrel.
Why insult Fairy Biyou?
Because Fairy Biyou often borrows money from her, even though she's already rich. It's really too much. I'll wait for her to come back.
