Chapter 247 Renting a Shop

"Hey, it's my junior brother and sister. I'm also from Taixu Sect." The man in yellow shirt saw the flame pattern on Shi Yue and Chen Xing'er's clothes, forced a smile on his face and said.

"So you are my fellow senior brother. I'm sorry. We want to rent a shop to do some small business. I hope you can help us and see if there is a shop with a better location for rent." Chen Xing'er said with a smile. As she spoke, she took out a medium-grade spirit stone from her storage bag and handed it to the man in yellow shirt.

The man in yellow shirt did not refuse. He took the medium-grade spirit stone and his smile deepened. He said with a smile:

"Okay, okay, there is a vacant shop in the southwest corner of Xianyuan City. The rent is one thousand spirit stones a month. I wonder what you think, junior sister?"

"How big is the area? Is there a lot of traffic there?" Chen Xing'er asked.

"The store is more than ten feet in size, and there is a small courtyard for resting in the back. There are quite a lot of people. Every time there is a disciple-recruiting ceremony, a large number of immortal cultivators will flock to Xianyuan City. As long as the price of junior sister's products is fair and the quality is good, the business will definitely be booming."

"Then I will take this store as you said." Chen Xing'er grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.

After that, she took out ten medium-grade spirit stones from the storage bag and handed them to the yellow-shirted man, who handed her a palm-sized white disc and a square green token.

"The white disc is the array disc that controls the soundproof magic array in the yard. As for the green token, it is the key to enter and exit the store. You can open the door anytime you want, but you have to pay for the spirit stones to maintain the magic array." The yellow-shirted man explained.

"Of course, thank you for your guidance, senior brother." Shi Yue thanked him.

"By the way, if you still don't have a place to stay, you can live in Taixu Inn, which is opened by our family. If you tell him that you know Huang Tianlei, he will give you a preferential price. Turn right out of Taixu Inn." The yellow-shirted man seemed to remember something and said.

After hearing this, Shi Yue and Chen Xing'er thanked him, put away the white disc and the green token and left.

After leaving the management office, the two walked to the right.

Not long after, a six-story exquisite pavilion appeared in front of the two. The plaque at the door read "Taixu Inn" in four big characters.

The shopkeeper was an old man with white hair and a gray robe, who was calculating with a yellow abacus.

There was a spiritual fluctuation on the gray-robed old man, but it was very weak, only the third level of Qi Refining.

"Shopkeeper, are there any guest rooms? Give us two." Shi Yue walked to the counter and said to the shopkeeper.

"We have guest rooms. One room costs 10 spirit stones a month, and two rooms costs 20 spirit stones." The gray-robed old man said with a smile.

"What? One room costs 10 spirit stones a month? Shopkeeper, what do you think we are? If you want to rip off customers, this is not the way to do it." Chen Xing'er heard this, her face changed, and she said in a deep voice, with a somewhat unhappy expression.

"This fairy has misunderstood. This price is set by the higher-ups. I have no way to change it. Because a large number of immortal cultivators have poured into Xianyuan City, there are naturally fewer guest rooms in Xianyuan City. It is normal that the price is higher. If you don't believe me, go to other inns and ask. The price is not much different." The gray-robed old man smiled bitterly and explained word by word.

After hearing this, Chen Xing'er's expression eased, and she turned her head to look at Shi Yue, who nodded at her.

"We were introduced by Senior Brother Huang Tianlei. Can you give us a discount?"

The gray-robed old man nodded and said, "So it was Xiao Liuzi who introduced us. Okay! Two guest rooms for 15 spirit stones. No less. In a few days, it will be overcrowded. Even 30 spirit stones for one guest room may not be available."

"Okay! Then we'll take two rooms." Shi Yue took out 15 spirit stones from his storage bag and put them on the counter.

"This is the array plate that controls the guest room ban. The instructions for use are on the back." The gray-robed old man took out two round yellow tokens and handed them to Shi Yue.

Shi Yue took it, looked at it, and nodded.

Next, the shopkeeper called a waiter and took the two to the third floor. Their rooms were next to each other.

"Junior Brother Shi, are you tired? If not, let's go see the store?" Chen Xing'er asked casually.

"It's not tiring. I'm free anyway, so let's go and have a look! It's better to open early." Shi Yue hesitated for a moment and agreed.

So the two of them rushed to the direction of the shop they rented without stopping.

During the period, they walked into the shops on both sides of the street from time to time to ask about the prices of different goods.

Shi Yue was surprised to find that the prices of various goods in Xianyuan City had increased a lot. With the power of the fireball talisman, the shop in Taixu Valley was one spirit stone per ticket, while the shop in Xianyuan City was two spirit stones per ticket. The price of spiritual pills was about 20% higher, and the prices of magic tools and other things were much higher.

In general, the goods in Xianyuan City are much more expensive than those in Taixu Valley.

Shi Yue nodded secretly. It seems that Chen Xing'er has a good vision. If she hadn't come to borrow spirit stones, Shi Yue might not have seen this way of wealth.

The two visited dozens of shops and had a general understanding of the prices of various goods in Xianyuan City.

Two hours later, Shi Yue and Chen Xing'er arrived at their destination, a stone house built with bluestone, with a misty green light curtain at the door.

Chen Xing'er took out a green token from her sleeve and shook it forward. A green light flew out of it and disappeared into the green light curtain in a flash.

The green light curtain flashed wildly and disintegrated. A shop of more than ten feet in size appeared in front of the two.

The shelves in the store were covered with dust. It was obvious that no one had been here for a long time.

There was a side room behind the counter. Through the side room, there was a yard of more than ten feet in size. There was a simple wooden house in the yard. There was nothing in the house. It was covered with dust. It seemed that no one had been here for a long time.

There was a magic circle of about ten feet in the house, with three grooves on it.

"Such a small place, the monthly rent is actually one thousand spirit stones. The management office is too good at doing business." Shi Yue looked at the empty wooden house and sighed.

"Hehe, if the five sects hadn't jointly held the disciple-recruiting ceremony, there wouldn't be so many immortal cultivators in Xianyuan City. Of course, they would take the opportunity to make a fortune. It's only one thousand spirit stones. Now Xianyuan City is already overcrowded, and there are immortal cultivators coming from other places. We will open the store tomorrow and we will be able to make back the money soon." Chen Xing'er smiled and said confidently.

"By the way, Senior Sister Chen, what do you think is a good name for our store?" Shi Yue nodded and asked.

"Name? Chen's Grocery Store? No, Shi's Grocery Store? It doesn't seem to work either. Junior Brother Shi, do you have any good suggestions?" Chen Xing'er thought of a few names, but quickly rejected them and asked Shi Yue.
