Chapter 39: Picking up a leak with ten-thousand-year whale glue
"Welcome, two guests, please come in~"
Entering the Treasure Pavilion, a girl wearing the Treasure Pavilion uniform greeted them.
The girl looked only seventeen or eighteen years old, with a sweet appearance and a slender figure. Her lower body was covered by a long skirt, so it was hard to see clearly, but her upper body was exposing her shoulders, and her fair skin looked even more graceful against the backdrop of the Treasure Pavilion's magnificent architecture.
Not only that, the girl was young but had a lot of capital, comparable to Ma Xiaotao.
This made Bai Zhou involuntarily take a few more looks and compare it with Wang Dong's...
Hmm, Wang Dong still had to work hard.
"Bastard, you're not allowed to look!" Wang Dong pinched Bai Zhou's waist fiercely and said viciously.
She subconsciously glanced at the girl's chest and then lowered her head to look at her own toes; an emotion called "inferiority" instantly surged into her heart.
"It's fine, small is also cute." Bai Zhou sensed Wang Dong's mood and encouraged her seriously.
Wang Dong:...
It was really touching a sore spot; Wang Dong wanted to kill Bai Zhou right now.
The two followed the big-breasted girl into the Treasure Pavilion.
"We are students of Shrek Academy; we should have a credit limit here, right?" Bai Zhou suddenly asked.
"Ah, so the two of you are students of Shrek, I have been rude~"
Upon hearing this, the girl was delighted, and then her attitude became increasingly respectful: "The two of you must be here for the first time; you need to fill out a form, and we will estimate your limit at the Treasure Pavilion."
"Alright."
Bai Zhou followed the girl to the second floor and, under the other party's guidance, filled out the form with Wang Dong.
The two waited in the lounge for a while, and then the girl walked in with a smile.
"The results are out. Mr. Bai and Miss Wang, your credit limits are both 100,000 Gold Soul Coins."
As the girl spoke, she handed a purple card to Wang Dong and Bai Zhou respectively, then looked at the two of them with a smile and asked: "May I ask what the two of you need to buy?"
"I don't need anything, I'll just look."
Wang Dong shrugged and stuffed the purple card directly to Bai Zhou.
Although 100,000 Gold Soul Coins was a lot, it really couldn't buy her anything useful, and she didn't need Bai Zhou to buy her anything precious.
As long as Bai Zhou could accompany her and buy her little gifts from time to time, she was already very satisfied.
This time it was Bai Zhou who brought her here; clearly, Bai Zhou wanted to buy some things, and 100,000 Gold Soul Coins might not be enough, so she simply gave her limit to Bai Zhou as well. If it wasn't enough, she actually still had quite a bit of private money...
Bai Zhou took the purple card from Wang Dong's hand, gently pinched Wang Dong's little hand, and accepted this mouthful of soft rice.
Then Bai Zhou looked at the girl and said: "I need some heavenly treasures that can enhance physical strength; you should have quite a few here, right?"
Bai Zhou had a body-tempering art, but body-refining cultivators weren't just bitter and hard; they were also big spenders who needed a large amount of heavenly treasures to assist in cultivation.
Although soul beast flesh and blood were good, the effect was far less effective than some special heavenly treasures; a thousand-year spirit medicine that increased physical strength could be worth a thousand catties of hundred-year soul beast flesh and blood.
"Naturally, please follow me, Young Master."
The girl smiled slightly, then led Bai Zhou to the second floor of the Treasure Pavilion. The second floor had four entrances, selling pills, materials, heavenly treasures, and soul tools respectively.
In the second-floor lobby, some extremely rare items were exhibited, such as soul bones, ten-thousand-year spirit medicines, special soul tools above Level 6, etc. These could naturally be sold, but ordinary people basically couldn't afford them.
The girl brought Bai Zhou and Wang Dong to the room selling heavenly treasures. The room was large, and heavenly treasures of various colors were preserved in boxes or glass, with their basic information and prices placed next to them.
"Young Master, this is thousand-year dragon blood ginseng..." "This is Yunnan black mushroom..."
"This is..."
The girl introduced the treasures that could increase physical strength to Bai Zhou with familiarity, but the prices were all a bit expensive.
Just then, Bai Zhou saw a strange thing next to him; it was a black crystal, looking wrinkled, preserved in a glass display stand, labeled "thousand-year whale glue," priced at 6,000 Gold Soul Coins.
"This is not bad, I'll buy it."
The moment Bai Zhou saw this whale glue, he was ecstatic and hurriedly spoke up.
This was a true unexpected joy; after all, he really just came to buy heavenly treasures to enhance physical strength and didn't have the intention of intercepting Huo Yuhao's opportunity, but it might be because he brought Wang Dong, his luck had improved, and this opportunity had been delivered to his door...
"Why do you want to buy this? Thousand-year whale glue is golden yellow; this black-looking thing looks disgusting at first glance. Thousand-year whale glue is worth at least fifty thousand Gold Soul Coins, and this thing only sells for 6,000. Cheap goods are no good; it's not a good thing." Wang Dong walked over, looking disgusted.
"This whale glue is not bad; I want it."
Bai Zhou nodded to the girl and said.
"Alright, sir, I'll pack it for you right away~"
The girl clearly didn't intend to explain, but impatiently put the whale glue into a custom-made jade box and packed it up carefully.
This whale glue clearly looked like it was of poor quality, and the effect might be less than one percent of the original; it had been here for several months and no one had bought it. Today, having finally met a sucker, the girl was naturally delighted.
"Bai Zhou, what are you doing? Aren't you wasting money!" Wang Dong stomped her feet gently, glaring at Bai Zhou angrily.
Of course, she wasn't angry that Bai Zhou was wasting money, but that Bai Zhou didn't believe her at all, which made her very angry! "Alright, be good, I'll explain it to you when we go back." Bai Zhou gently smoothed Wang Dong's fur and comforted her softly.
After all, it wasn't easy to speak here.
"Hmph, hmph, alright, then I'll believe you once..." Wang Dong rubbed her head into Bai Zhou's embrace, then hummed and hawed, looking very satisfied.
Bai Zhou collected the whale glue and bought quite a few other heavenly treasures, costing 190,000 Gold Soul Coins, basically using up all his and Wang Dong's limits.
After all, soft rice delivered to the door, why not eat it.
The two left the Treasure Pavilion. Bai Zhou was too lazy to return to the academy, so he directly took Wang Dong to open a guest room outside.
"We came here to open a room... what for..." Wang Dong followed Bai Zhou into the small room cautiously, looking vigilant.
"Shopping all day, naturally we need to rest, otherwise what could I do?" Bai Zhou raised an eyebrow.
"Oh, oh... by the way, why did you buy that whale glue before? You haven't explained it to me yet..." Wang Dong nodded and hurriedly changed the subject.
"Hehe, this actually isn't thousand-year whale glue, but ten-thousand-year whale glue, it's just that no one knows the goods."
Bai Zhou chuckled and took out the whale glue.
"What!! Ten-thousand-year whale glue!!"
Wang Dong exclaimed, then hurriedly covered her little mouth, her big eyes looking at the whale glue flickering.
Thousand-year whale glue was fifty thousand Gold Soul Coins, while ten-thousand-year whale glue was worth millions of Gold Soul Coins, and it was priceless! No matter what heavenly treasure it was, adding "ten-thousand" would make it completely different, and its value would increase by more than a hundred times!
Even when she was a child, the ten-thousand-year spirit medicines she had eaten could be counted on one hand; most were thousand-year spirit medicines.
And now, they had actually picked up a leak with a piece of ten-thousand-year whale glue; this wave was truly making a killing!
