Chapter 447: A New Store

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Hearing what Xu Que had said, both the shopkeeper and the people around were surprised.

Going public? Collecting money? Making money by trading in the stock market? And making spin-offs?

Although these all sounded very confusing to them, still, they all felt that it might work somehow.

"So are you going to sell your store to me or not? Or will you become a shareholder? If you are not willing to work with me, I will go and ask other people." Xu Que was getting impatient.

The shopkeeper forced out a smile. "Young man, I can sell my store to you if you really want it, but as for becoming a shareholder, I cannot do that since I know nothing about it. Besides, my store is very expensive…"

"Just tell me how much you want, I have plenty of money," Xu Que smiled.

As long as I can expand my store, I can do anything he asks. As for the money, I will get it anyway.

"Good. please wait here for a moment."

The shopkeeper nodded. Then he walked into the store and began to calculate.

After a while, he walked to Xu Que and set the price of the store. Not including all the magic weapons and artifacts it contained, the store would cost two million Spirit Stones.

The shopkeeper had been wanting to sell his store for a long time. It was located far away from the centre of the city, and the store was not doing very well these days. But he had hated the idea of just leaving his store there. Therefore, he was now immensely happy that Xu Que wanted to buy his store.

The store was not small, so Xu Que thought this price was very sensible and agreed.

"Ya! Ya! Ya!"

All of a sudden, a huge number of men came riding over on horses, stopping outside the store. They were the three thousand soldiers of the Snow City.

"Hurry up, General Zhuge is going to loot someone's house again."

"Hurry up!"

"F*ck! How dare he not inform me about this!"

The soldiers thought that they were about to loot someone's house and had all gotten very excited.

Buttface was furious, however, since he had been told not to come.

Seeing them coming, Xu Que took off his mask and shouted, "Listen, catch Buttface!"

"What?" Buttface was shocked and stopped running. "What is going on? Why did you order them to catch me?"

People at present were also shocked when Xu Que took off his mask.

"He is General Zhuge!"

"I knew it!"

"Why on earth has he ordered the soldiers to catch his pet dog?"

"Can it be possible that he wants to kill the dog and sell its meat?"

Xu Que pointed at Buttface and shouted, "Today, we are going to 'loot' Buttface. Take all his Spirit Stones."

Xu Que knew Buttface had many valuable objects, such as an eight-star sword.

Since Xu Que had never been interested in these so-called treasures, he had never taken Buttface's objects away.

But this time, it was different. He needed some extra Spirit Stones. He had decided either to directly get some Spirit Stones from Buttface, or sell some of Buttface's eight-star magic weapons.

All of a sudden, the soldiers surrounded Buttface.

Realizing he could not run away, Buttface threatened them, saying, "Stay where you are! Anyone who dares to touch me will be kicked to death by me!"

Xu Que smiled. "Buttface, behave yourself! Hand me all your Spirit Stones, I will return them to you once I make some money!"

"I haven't got any!"

"Really?"

"Yes!"

"Are you sure?"

"Yes! I am sure!"

Xu Que nodded. "Fine, I meant to treat you to a very nice meal if you gave me some of your Spirit Stones. What a pity…"

"Wait! Here they are. If you need more, I will get more and give them to you!" Buttface said while taking out two Spirit Stones of top quality.

In fact, Buttface was not extremely interested in food. However, since eating the stinky tofu that Xu Que had made, he had become addicted to it. As soon as he heard the phrase 'a nice meal', he was unable to resist the temptation.

"Here they are, if you need more, just tell me!"

"I need more!"

"You're not lying to me about the nice meal, right?"

"Just give me all the stones you have!"

"Only ten more."

"Fine! Give them to me. I promise I will treat you to a good meal tomorrow."

…

In total, Xu Que now had twelve Spirit Stones of top quality.

Seeing this, everyone at present was speechless.

Even his pet dog is this rich! This young man must be extremely rich. But still, he is indeed shameless, lying to his own pet. He took the stones without treating his dog to a nice meal. Seriously, there are twelve Spirit Stones of top quality here, which equates to twelve million Spirit Stones of low quality! Even meals in the royal palace would not be this expensive.

…

"Come over here. You take the two million Spirit Stones of low quality first, and clear your store now!"

Xu Que gave two Spirit Stones of top quality to the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper then gave him a contract. The deal was done.

Then Xu Que ordered the soldiers to tear down the walls between the store and Zhai Bao Ge. He also took out some beautiful objects from his System Parcel to decorate his store with.

These include things like wallpaper, desks and chairs in a modern style, some decorational ornaments meant for the glass window, and some colorful lights, which had never been seen by anyone in the Cultivation World before.

When the wall collapsed, Xu Que began to clear and decorate the store.

With the help of some magic inscriptions, he set about doing his job quickly. He dispersed all the beautiful, modern decorations around the store, illuminating the lights with Qi.

The people at present were all surprised by what they had seen.

Xu Que worked from daylight to dusk. After the sun had set, some of the onlookers left. But soon, many other people came.

After all, these objects were all very fancy and included things that they had never laid eyes on before.

Buttface came too. He even thought that one of the pieces of decorative glass was actually something delicious. When he was preparing himself to eat it, Xu Que quickly kicked him away.

…

By the very next day, Xu Que had finished with the decorations, and hung a shop-sign outside.

Many people heard that the General had opened a store and all hurriedly came to have a look. As soon as they saw his store, they were greatly surprised.

Amongst all the ancient buildings in the Imperial City, it was really rare to see such a new, smart and modern-looking store.

This store had a strange name, too—McDonald's of the Exploding Heavens Faction.
