Chapter 78

~8 min read 1,481 words

"Young Master Shen, watch your words. Does our Baibao Pavilion not even know how to distinguish the authenticity of banknotes?"

Xiao Ning showed an expression of dissatisfaction.

"I was just kindly reminding you, fifteen million, do you know what that concept is?"

Shen Guan snorted coldly.

As the young master of the Shen family, the cash he could usually use was only a few million.

After all, no matter how rich the Shen family is, they wouldn't let him spend it casually.

Even if his own father came, if he wanted to take out fifteen million, he would have to hold a family meeting to decide.

And Yang Yu, spent it just like that?

How is that possible!

Even if the Bai family were willing to give Yang Yu money, they couldn't give out fifteen million.

The Bai family was able to become one of the three major families mainly because of their strong martial strength and great influence in the cultivation world, not because they had a lot of money.

When it comes to cash, the Bai family is far inferior to the Shen family.

The Bai family supports so many clansmen and martial artists; every day is a huge expense, and they simply wouldn't have much liquid capital.

If they encounter an urgent matter, taking out a few million isn't difficult.

But to suddenly take out fifteen million in cash banknotes, they would definitely have to tighten the belts of the whole clan, and it might even hurt the family's foundation.

There is no reason for this Yang Yu to be able to take out so much money!

"What we at Baibao Pavilion come into contact with most every day is money; I have checked all this money, and there is no problem at all. Young Master Shen, if you continue to talk nonsense, I will have to kick you out."

Xiao Ning's face turned cold.

Shen Guan was embarrassed and angry, scolding, "Shut up, you are just an attendant, how dare you talk to me like that? Let your Pavilion Master come to see me!"

"Heh, who wants to see me?"

Just at this moment, Lu Xiuyuan's voice came.

Shen Guan was overjoyed, turned his head and said, "Pavilion Master, you've come just in time! This Yang Yu took out so much money in one breath, there is definitely a problem! Daring to use fake banknotes to fool the Baibao Pavilion, he is simply tired of living!"

"Who are you?" Lu Xiuyuan frowned slightly.

Shen Guan was a little embarrassed at first, then said with a full face of smiles, "Pavilion Master, have you forgotten? I am Shen Guan, the young master of the Shen family. In these few years, the Shen family has spent quite a bit at the Baibao Pavilion."

"Oh, it's you." Lu Xiuyuan responded indifferently.

Then he looked at Yang Yu enthusiastically and said, "Yang Yu, you didn't even tell me in advance when you came to the Baibao Pavilion, so I could have come to receive you."

"Pavilion Master is too kind, Azhi and I were just on a whim, coming to take a look," Yang Yu replied.

Shen Guan was suddenly dumbfounded:

No way? What's the situation?

The Pavilion Master ignores me, yet is so enthusiastic toward Yang Yu?

Where did it go wrong?!

Zhou Lin pulled Shen Guan and muttered in a low voice, "Aren't you the young master of the Shen family? How come in the Pavilion Master's eyes, you seem less noble than Yang Yu?"

Shen Guan's face flushed red, and he said loudly again:

"Pavilion Master Lu, this Yang Yu's banknotes... have a problem, should we check them?"

Lu Xiuyuan glanced at Shen Guan and frowned, "If the Baibao Pavilion couldn't even tell the authenticity of banknotes, this shop wouldn't need to be open."

Although the tone was flat, it carried a strong sense of oppression.

Shen Guan broke out in a cold sweat, apologized repeatedly, and said, "Y-yes, this junior was wrong."

"Pavilion Master, Young Master Yang bought this martial technique, Primordial Half-Moon Flash. Just now on the fourth floor, he also spent five million. Adding this up, it's already twenty million."

Xiao Ning explained, taking the opportunity.

Lu Xiuyuan was startled.

Spending over twenty million in one go, even in the Baibao Pavilion, is a rare occurrence.

This Yang Yu really is full of hidden depths.

Lu Xiuyuan's desire to befriend Yang Yu deepened; he personally opened the protective barrier of the martial technique, took it out, and placed it in a golden gift box...

Seeing this, Zhou Lin was so jealous her eyes turned red.

A Heaven Grade martial technique, this Yang Yu really bought it, and the Pavilion Master came to receive him personally!

Shen Guan's face was stiff, and he said in a low voice, "L-let's go."

The two had wanted to come up to mock Yang Yu, but didn't expect to become the joke themselves.

Why stay here any longer?

Unexpectedly, Zhou Lin stomped her feet and said with dissatisfaction:

"Shen Guan, this Yang Yu can buy such expensive things and still give them to Bai Zhi. Why can't you give them to me? You are the son of the richest man, you can't lose out! There are other treasures of the shop on this floor, you should buy one too."

"..."

Shen Guan's face turned green:

The treasures of the shop on the fifth floor, I'd like to buy them!

Can I afford them?

They are all items worth over ten million; even if my father came, he would have to weigh it!

And I'm supposed to buy them for you? Do you deserve it?

Zhou Lin muttered, "You aren't incapable, are you? If we just leave like this, we really will have lost to Bai Zhi and Yang Yu, and we won't be able to hold our heads up when we go out in the future."

Shen Guan: "Heh."

Just at this moment, Yang Yu suddenly pointed to another barrier light shield and said, "I'll take this sword too."

"Ah?!"

This time, even Lu Xiuyuan was deeply shocked.

This sword is named "Red Lotus," also at the level of a shop treasure, and its value is even higher than the Primordial Half-Moon Flash, a full twenty million!

Lu Xiuyuan thought Yang Yu was full of hidden depths, but didn't expect him to be this deep.

After being stunned for a moment, he quickly took out the precious sword and, together with the Heaven Grade martial technique, handed them to Yang Yu.

Yang Yu really took out another twenty million...

Lu Xiuyuan said, "We are old friends, the items certainly can't be at the original price. How about this, you've spent so much today, I'll give you a total discount of five million..."

"Many thanks, Pavilion Master."

Yang Yu wasn't too polite either.

The other party took the initiative to give a discount to express goodwill; accepting it is the best response.

"Azhi, you keep both this martial technique and the weapon."

Yang Yu gave both shop treasures to Bai Zhi.

Without giving Bai Zhi a chance to refuse, he placed his index finger gently beside Bai Zhi's lips: "Don't say anything else, keep them, or I'll throw them away."

On the other side.

Zhou Lin's teeth were almost crushed!

Why?

Why can she never be better than Bai Zhi?

She had thought that in the matter of finding a man, she could finally win against Bai Zhi once.

But she didn't expect that even her own husband, the son of the richest man, would be ruthlessly crushed by Bai Zhi's fiancé...

Shame, unwillingness, grievance... various emotions erupted at the same time, and Zhou Lin actually cried, tears streaming down.

"Alright, let's go..."

Shen Guan couldn't stay for another moment and wanted to forcibly drag Zhou Lin away.

Zhou Lin suddenly burst into loud sobs and said, "Shen Guan! Bai Zhi has such expensive gifts, what about me? I want them too! I don't care, no matter what method you use, you must buy a shop treasure for me! Otherwise, you just don't care about me!"

"Stop making a scene..." Shen Guan had a headache.

Zhou Lin continued to shout, "I'm not making a scene, I'm serious, I must have one today! If not, go ask your father for money. Whatever Bai Zhi has, I must have too; am I not as good as Bai Zhi?"

"Fuck! You cheap bitch!"

Shen Guan suddenly exploded.

How could he not feel shame and anger?

But he could only hold it in.

After all, Yang Yu is truly rich, and he really can't compare.

Just leave and be done with it.

But Zhou Lin was actually endless and making unreasonable demands.

Shen Guan couldn't take it anymore.

Hearing this loud scolding, Zhou Lin's eyes widened in anger, and she said, "Y-you, you're scolding me?"
