~8 min read 1,532 words

"Worldly gains breed worldly hearts; who remains to cherish a kindred spirit? A storyteller on stage, friends off stage; a bond formed is worth ten thousand pieces of gold."

"It is shameful to say, but legends are rare on this Xianzhou. After all, with such long lives and enduring visions, where is there any room for legends to take root?"

"Last time, the story went: at that time on the Xianzhou, there were the invasions of the Plague Ancestor of the Swarm outside, and the Ambrosial Arbor of the Longevity Plague entrenched within. The Reignbow Arbiter summoned the generals, seeking to restore a clear and bright universe to the Xianzhou. Legend has it that when the Reignbow Arbiter set out on the campaign, he once said..."

"At that time on the Luo Fu, ever since the various disasters settled and the 'Luo Fu' came to a stop, the 'Merchant Guilds' have always been the economic lifeline of the Xianzhou. Among the various merchant guilds on the Xianzhou, some have official backing, while others are purely civilian organizations."

"This time, we are going to talk about Miss Tingyun, the chief representative of the interstellar merchant group 'Minghuo.' She is smooth and resourceful, skilled in communicating with people, and born to be a merchant."

"But come to think of it, a mysterious guest consultant has recently appeared in the interstellar merchant group 'Minghuo.'"

The Luo Fu.

The Central Starskiff Haven.

The most prosperous Xuanye Avenue.

The most famous teahouse located here, the Bu Ye Hou shop.

On the stage.

Mr. Xi Yan, the storyteller, was shaking his fan while speaking slowly: "It is said that a mysterious guest consultant has come to the interstellar merchant group 'Minghuo,' invited by Miss Tingyun herself. It is said that he is handsome in appearance, elegant in demeanor, and possesses knowledge far beyond that of ordinary people."

"Mysterious? A mysterious guest consultant came to the Minghuo merchant group? How come I don't know about this?"

"Is it true or false? The interstellar merchant group 'Minghuo' is the most prestigious merchant group on the Luo Fu, right? So far, they have only had appraisers, no guest consultants. What virtue or ability does this person have to become a guest consultant for 'Minghuo'?"

"You must be lying. I just came from the 'Minghuo' merchant group side, and I didn't see any guest consultant. Where did you hear this news? How come I have never heard of it?"

"A guest consultant invited personally by Miss Tingyun must have an extraordinary identity, right? But does he really have knowledge far beyond ordinary people? Possessing common sense far beyond that of a merchant is not enough to become a guest consultant for this 'Minghuo.'"

"This is such a big deal, yet 'Minghuo' doesn't seem to have notified anyone. Shouldn't they have posted a notice? It makes no sense that we don't know."

"It must be fake."

Hearing the storyteller's words, the people listening to the story looked at each other, one after another, and exclaimed in astonishment.

Since when did the Minghuoshang Society have a guest consultant position?

And it was invited by Miss Tingyun, the chief representative of 'Minghuo.' What virtue or ability does this person have?

One after another, they discussed it, many of them looking incredulous.

That is the largest interstellar merchant group on the Luo Fu, 'Minghuo.' They had never heard of a guest consultant position in the merchant group, and the most famous person there is Miss Tingyun, the chief representative.

Now they actually heard that a guest consultant had come to the 'Minghuo' merchant group?

"This matter is naturally true. When have I ever told a lie?"

Mr. Xi Yan of Bu Ye Hou shook his fan while speaking slowly: "The person who can be invited by Miss Tingyun to become a guest consultant must have common sense that is not so simple. Don't talk about you all; even I am very curious about what this guest consultant looks like."

While the storyteller was speaking slowly.

Not far away, Lin Mo, who was handsome and dressed in gorgeous clothes, was holding a cup of tea and sniffing it. A refreshing fragrance rushed to his nose, making him unable to help but close his eyes.

He took a light sip and felt a sweet liquid surging on the tip of his tongue, as if it were honey.

A cool breath went from his throat to his chest, as if it were a wisp of spring breeze.

The taste was excellent!

It was worthy of being the most famous tea in Bu Ye Hou. The fragrance lingered on his teeth, and there was rich energy wandering in his body, nourishing his body while also giving him the ultimate taste enjoyment.

It was no less inferior to the Chenyu tea made in the Chenyu Vale.

"Young Master, what do you think? Would you like some more?"

Beside him, a beautiful little maid was standing prettily next to Lin Mo, introducing it with excitement: "This tea is the treasure of our Bu Ye Hou shop. It is the tea leaves left by the old master. The reason why our Bu Ye Hou shop was able to become popular in the beginning was because of this kind of tea. Many big shots have drunk this kind of tea."

"Because this cup of tea can prolong your life and nourish your body with the power of life. It is made from spiritual herbs and spiritual springs on a certain immortal mountain. Every tea leaf contains rich spiritual energy. Drinking a cup, you can feel the vitality of life and the nourishment of immortal energy."

As the biggest customer of the Bu Ye Hou shop, which was related to her performance commission, she must serve this guest well.

The tea held in this guest's hand was called the Tea of Life, the treasure of the Bu Ye Hou shop!

One cup of tea cost 500,000 credits!

And this young man had already drunk six cups!

That was a full 3 million credits!

On the Luo Fu, 5 million credits was a number that an ordinary person could not earn in a lifetime.

The average salary on the Luo Fu was only 3,000 to 10,000.

Anything above 5,000 was considered a high salary!

And this young man, just by drinking this cup of tea, had drunk a full 3 million credits.

This was unbelievable to say out loud.

Beside them, some of the people listening to the story, standing or sitting, saw this scene and whispered with envy in their eyes.

"Which young master's family is this from again? He can actually drink the treasure tea of this Bu Ye Hou shop, and not just one cup."

"It is said that this treasure of the shop has only been drunk by legendary big shots. Besides that, no one else has ever drunk it, and they can't afford it either."

"Who would spend a few years' salary to drink a cup of tea? Are they crazy?"

"I haven't heard of any noble young master coming to enjoy it either. Could it be a visitor from another world?"

They whispered while looking with envy.

That kind of tea, even on their Xianzhou Luo Fu, almost no one had drunk it. It belonged to the treasure of the Bu Ye Hou shop.

They had only heard of it, never seen it, let alone seen anyone else drink it.

Now sitting here, they could smell the tea fragrance that made their whole person feel refreshed, and for a moment, they were very envious in their hearts.

"Not bad."

Hearing the little maid's words, Lin Mo nodded gently and smiled: "Among the teas I have drunk, this can be considered top-grade."

"One last cup."

Hearing Lin Mo's words, the little maid was excited, her whole face was extremely rosy, and she immediately poured another cup for Lin Mo.

One cup was 500,000 credits; this was the seventh cup.

3.5 million credits; just thinking about it made the little maid excited.

And Lin Mo picked up this cup of tea again, drank it gently, closed his eyes to savor it, and had a look of satisfaction in his eyes.

Satisfied, drinking seven cups in a row, Lin Mo only felt comfortable.

"Young Master, this is the bill."

Seeing Lin Mo say this was the last cup, the little maid excitedly handed over the bill: "You drank a total of seven cups of the Tea of Life and ate six plates of the Yao-fried Yellow Stamen Tea Cakes, totaling 4.03 million credits. I can round it down for you; 4 million credits will do. May I ask if you are paying by card or transfer?"

Looking at the astronomical figure above, the little maid was excited. The consumption of this young master today was already the profit of the Bu Ye Hou shop for nearly a year!

"Credits?"

Hearing the little maid's words, Lin Mo, who was holding the tea, suddenly fell into deep thought: "I don't have any credits."

He had only come to the Xianzhou for two days; where would he get credits?

Bu Ye Hou shop little maid: "???"
