Millennium Tension - Chapter 182: Little Fuss at the Street Vendors
The same thing was repeated in the other five greenhouses, until finally Aizen and his group finished obtaining flower seeds that were ready to be planted.
They didn’t need to ask the Elder or the flower girl for advice or anything, they already knew how the flowers should be treated.
“Well then, this is the last one.” Aizen once again gave the payment pouch to the Elder who was guarding the greenhouse.
“Ahem, I, as the representative of Harmony Garden, would like to thank you for your interest in our flower plants.” The elder who had white hair and a long white beard accepted the pouch with joy.
“Hmm, alright, and to you two flower girls, thanks for your quick work. Farewell.” After saying that, Aizen turned his back and left with his group.
Wei Shi and Bao’er gave a respectful bow and expressed their gratitude as well, then they looked at each other and cheered together.
“Yay! We did it, Bao’er. Hehe, Elder Quan Kun, don’t forget our contribution points!” When it was finished and Aizen’s group had left, Wei Shi jumped with joy, along with her little junior.
“Un! Yes, yes, no one dares to disturb us because the elders are always there for us hehe…” Bao’er happily conveyed her joy.
“Hum, of course, you little girls will get huge contribution points at the end of this month. Who would have thought, that special customer has visited all the greenhouses to buy flowers for his lovers, and there are nine of them, he’s very greedy.” Quan Kun shook his head and let out a subtle breath.
Only for the cost of 223 top-ranked flowers that special customer bought alone, it cost about 30 thousand high tier spirit coins, a very high value but commensurate with the effect of each flower purchased.
“Hehe, then we excuse ourselves first, Elder Quan Kun, bye-bye.” Wei Shi waved her hand lightly.
“Hey, wait a moment little girl. I’m not done talking yet.”
“Eh? Is there something, Elder?” Bao’er who was about to go along with Wei Shi immediately stopped and turned her head.
“It is nothing, I am an old man who likes to give advice, you cannot leave without receiving my sermon.” Qian Kun stroked his long beard like a sage who always shared his knowledge with the world.
“Ooh! I see, these little girls will listen.” Wei Shi nodded as if she understood, she almost forgot this Elder’s habit.
“Even though you have worked hard and got results, you have to use them wisely. Wasteful, lavish, and prodigal are things you should avoid. Use your contribution points and bonuses wisely on what you think is necessary. Your path of cultivation has a long way to go. ”
Qian Kun put his hands behind his body, a lecture that was deemed necessary to be given to these naive little girls.
“We are grateful for your advice, Elder Qian Kun. We will put that in our minds.” Wei Shi paid her respects, and Bao’er only followed her a moment after.
“Yeah, that’s great, now you can go.” The old man who felt himself wise nodded and allowed the two girls to leave.
A moment later, while he was looking at the two girls slowly leaving, he heard a dangerous whisper from some distance away but still in his greenhouse. Without waiting for another second, he immediately rushed to the source of the sound.
“Young master, they are the ones we saw earlier. If I’m not mistaken they have already spent tens of thousands of high-tier spirit coins just to buy flowers for his nine girls.” A cultivator whispered to his boss while pointing at Aizen’s group who were walking towards the exit.
“He is rich and has many women, do you think such a person is trivial?” The boss with sharp eyes countered immediately, they would kill themselves if they dared to disturb the harem group.
“But, boss, I can’t detect their cultivation at all. Maybe they are just ordinary people who just entered the sect and that man is the descendant of some big shot.” The other lackey added information.
He and his colleagues overheard Aizen and Elder’s conversation from a distance, and immediately reported it to his boss. Maybe, that group could become easy prey for them.
“Darling, do you want them? Their money or because of the women with him?” A woman who was standing beside her man was feeling a little upset, because of these lackeys and because of that harem group.
Before the man who was the leader of the group had yet to answer his woman, Elder Quan Kun suddenly appeared behind them.
The old man who felt he was a super wise sage above all with ultra insight, lightly tapped the four young human heads in front of him with his wooden stick.
“Ow!”
“Aw…”
“Who is there!?”
“How presumptuous to attack us! Did you know we are…”
The different responses from the four people, they immediately turned around with annoyance and anger, only the woman was not like that.
“I don’t know who you are, but do you know who I am? Hmm, a couple and two lackeys. Now tell this old man, where are you from?” Quan Kun started interrogating those with bad intentions in his guard area.
“Ah, ah, nothing. I am Tao Wei of the Tao Clan, we paid our respect.” Tao Wei as the leader of his group paid his respects, and the other three also followed suit.
The person who was bothering them, was none other than one of the Elders of the Harmony Garden. They would be in trouble if they offended this old man in his territory. Neither of them felt they had done anything wrong, so they would be fine.
“I see, Tao Wei of the Tao Clan, I heard the conversation of all of your bad intentions just a moment ago. Even though it was just an intention and hasn’t been done, it’s still a bad thing. Do you know what awaits you after this?” Qian Kun looked down on these four people.
“Ah, uhh… We’re just talking, it doesn’t mean we have bad intentions. It’s just a misunderstanding, Elder.” Tao Wei was a little nervous, it seemed this Elder heard everything.
“Is that so? Whatever the reason, you still have to accept what you deserve and you won’t be able to escape.”
“May, may I know what awaits us?” The woman became afraid, she stuttered as she gripped her man’s robe.
“My sermon.” Qian Kun proudly replied, he intended to enlighten these four lost souls to the right path full of blooming flowers.
“Eh?”
“Se, sermon?”
Only Tao Wei and his women could respond as if they couldn’t believe what they heard. They had expected a fine or anything else that might await them, but not this one.
“Yes, you lost souls need to be shown the right path. Only by guiding a lost person to a beautiful and bright path, can it manifest the world that the divine dreams of. You are still so naive and ignorant, the group you pointed to earlier, none other. than a high-class group, they value politeness and warmth, and will eliminate those who bother them…”
Qian Kun continued his long lecture in the form of a sermon of his faith, only to help these lost souls by pointing out the direction of the path of truth.
Whereas the four people who were receiving the sermon could only listen to the bitter end, it was very long and took time.
Meanwhile, on the road near Halinoque, Aizen and company had just arrived there. They looked right and left at the bustle of the quirky handicraft district.
It could be called a treasure or an artifact, but in their eyes all of it was nothing more than a unique craft. Their point of view regarding treasures or artifacts was very different from those of these mortal cultivators.
‘Halinoque is there, that red building like a temple. Does anything catch your eye at this street vendors?’ Aizen asked calmly as the girls talked about the crafts around them.
‘En, inside Halinoque, there will obviously be something interesting, but let’s get around this road first. Sometimes or maybe, we will find our unexpected encounters from the trivial crafts hehe…’ Ana immediately responded with great joy.
She and the other girls were still checking the crafts around them with the help of the system, even Axel was doing the same thing, the girls seemed to suddenly become little girls who were choosing their favorite item.
As they walked down the street, around Halinoque, they managed to find some interesting things at very low prices. Even though it was useless to them unlike what the seller said, but the accessories and items were beautiful and attractive.
Aizen immediately paid for all of the things the girls wanted to buy, and that was the umpteenth street vendor they visited. They only spent their time around here until the sun was near setting.
However, just as they felt like they had checked and looked around from all the vendors on the street, and just as they were about to return to Halinoque, suddenly something caught their attention.
Not an interesting item or anything, but from the slight commotion between the old granny, the owner of the street vendor at the end of the street and the annoyed young man.
The people around were only looking out of curiosity, and Aizen’s group watched from a distance. They waited for a moment to know the outcome of the commotion between the old granny and the young man.
