Buying a house should be fine; after all, he won't be moving in with me. I can just experience life here in Shandong.
With that thought, Ye You led Gu into the trading hall. To their surprise, the sun was nearly setting, yet the trading hall was still bustling with people. It seemed it wouldn't close anytime soon.
"Is there anything you two gentlemen are looking to buy?" Although the trading hall in Xixia Town was small, many immortals were willing to come here to see if they could discover something interesting.
A servant in a yellow vest approached them with a smile on his face.
"Buying a house or perhaps some land would be fine."
"Right this way."
Understanding Minghong's intentions, the servant led them to the third floor of the trading hall. Soon after, a flamboyantly dressed woman came over and took them to view some houses, while the servant slightly bowed and returned to Lou Dong.
The third floor had houses that were not for sale in Xixia Town. Unfortunately, Minghong and Gu had arrived a bit late; properties in Xixia Town were indeed precious, and what remained was either too expensive or not suitable for their needs. It was unclear what they intended to do in Xixia Town—whether to live there themselves, conduct business, or use it as storage. If they were looking to do business, it would likely be impossible since all the properties on the street had already been sold. If it was for personal residence, there were only a few options left, albeit at high prices.
No matter; if it was for personal use, paying a bit more wouldn’t hurt. After all, they had arrived late.
Gu quickly responded before Ye You could say anything else. Those Tian Zai folks had been quite straightforward so far; Gu knew Minghong well enough that with Ye You's temperament, she could easily ruin things with just a few words. It would only lead to trouble down the line if she kept talking. He hoped to keep her from engaging too much with those businessmen.
Especially when Ye You encountered Hong Ling; that would turn into a verbal battle that left both Gu and Hong Yulong feeling outmatched. They needed to find a place to chat quietly until Hong Ling and Ye You finished their argument. It was like a war between powerful women; surprisingly, their opinions aligned on certain points.
"What do you think of that house?" The woman pointed out a property located north of the town, backed by mountains and water—a perfect spot for leisurely activities like playing the guqin on the hillside. "It’s priced at five hundred thousand gold coins and includes a mountain peak. If you’re not short on cash, buying it would be a solid investment; even if you sell it later, you should be able to get that price."
My house has been set up, right? The house is connected to the mountain, and I fear it might be on the edge of the town. I’ve heard that there are no beasts around Xixia Town, so there shouldn’t be any danger in the back mountain.
No, no, with the immortals around, what kind of demons would dare to cause trouble? You can rest assured, young master.
Fifty thousand gold is not enough. We need to find some servants and renovate Yi Dong’s house. Everything needed for the renovation will come from that fifty thousand gold. I’ll buy that house; what do you think?
The young master is quite straightforward; I hope for nothing less.
Just as the woman was about to take him to retrieve the land deed, she was interrupted by a sudden voice.
I’ll offer one hundred thousand gold to buy that house of mine. What about the woman beside me?
Sigh...
Gu Chang let out a sigh. He had already been low-key to the extreme; how could he encounter such a brainless person? It only added to his frustration.
I’ll leave it to you; people like that wouldn’t last long anyway.
Ye You glanced at Gu and then slowly snapped his fingers. The two continued their conversation with the maid at the trading post as if nothing had happened.
But the maid had no interest in discussing business with them. She watched in shock as the lavishly dressed rich disciple who had just been speaking suddenly seemed to dissolve into dust, blown away by the wind, leaving everyone who witnessed this scene with their mouths agape and unable to move.
Who wouldn’t be shocked? The woman before them, veiled and appearing like an ordinary person, was likely a cultivator—one whose strength was unfathomable. They had never seen a cultivator capable of killing with just a flick of their leg. In Xixia Town, there were always those who lacked vision and dared to provoke Cheng Zong’s cultivators, only to be slain. The maid and servants in the trading post had never seen anything like it before.
They were just talking about where they left off.
Ah.
