Chapter 204 Silence, the Silence of Beiling Tonight
"Go away!" The elders of the Southern Spirit Sect immediately sent those people away.
This tea is so effective, they haven't even tasted it yet, why would we sell it? No matter the price, we won't sell it! Forget it!
Seeing that the elders of the Southern Spirit Sect were not working, these people shamelessly went to Lan Yue again.
After all, the others were thanking this little girl back then, and they saw it clearly!
So, just as they were reminiscing about Lan Yue, they were surrounded by a group of people.
"What? Selling tea?" Lan Yue instantly understood what this person really wanted.
However, this is Enlightenment Tea, how could it be sold like ordinary pills and array plates?
Not to brag, but not everyone present could afford genuine Enlightenment Tea.
"It's not that I'm unwilling to buy, but the tea I harvested before was so little, and I've already used it all up," Lan Yue said with a troubled tone.
She was right. She had indeed used up all the Wudao tea leaves she had used before! And she used them up very thoroughly, making a lot of milk tea.
In the end, she only drank one bottle herself and gave the rest away! Thinking about this, Lan Yue felt regretful about her milk tea.
Upon hearing Lan Yue's explanation, some people backed down, but others persisted, such as Elder Wan from the Northern Ridge Holy Land.
Elder Wan then unleashed his ultimate move, making a gesture with his hand.
"Ten top-grade spirit stones?" Lan Yue shook her head after looking at it.
That's a tea that embodies the essence of heaven and earth, how could it be sold so easily?
If it were really sold at such a low price, even the Wudao Tea Tree would be furious.
However, Elder Wan on the other side shook his head, looking mysterious.
"No, it's one hundred top-grade spirit stones, plus other things. If you think it's appropriate, I can buy it for you right now."
Elder Wan was determined to get this tea because he had an unprecedented premonition that this might be the most profitable deal he had ever made, bar none!
"If it's one hundred yuan..." Lan Yue hesitated.
The number of top-grade spirit stones in the cultivation world is already very small, and each one is extremely rare and hard to come by.
Moreover, these top-grade spirit stones, if used in ancient formations or even heaven-level formations, can have unimaginable effects.
Just like the formation she set up at the Qing Shi Sect last time, didn't it save thousands of Qing Shi Sect disciples?
Seeing that Lan Yue was still hesitating while Elder Wan was there, he hardened his heart and immediately doubled the amount again.
"How about 200 top-grade spirit stones?"
Lan Yue blurted out instinctively, "Deal!"
After he finished speaking, he saw that Elder Wan opposite him had a happy expression on his face.
She felt a little annoyed with herself; why couldn't she control her mouth? But she couldn't blame him for appearing so quickly; Elder Wan had given her so much!
She had worked so hard, going to the Forgotten Dust Sect with Elder White Eyebrows, putting together a performance for them, even appearing in person to participate, and dressing up as a woman for Yuan Shuo, all for a few dozen top-grade spirit stones.
Moreover, those spirit stones had already been used up at the Qing Shi Sect last time, so the people from the Qing Shi Sect made a lot of money back by buying things from her later, but she always felt that the more top-grade spirit stones the better.
Who would complain about having too much money?
However, as soon as Elder Wan relented, the other elders immediately surrounded her again, which frightened Lan Yue so much that she hurriedly fled.
This time, the one who could escape was Lan Yue, who had no chance to get away.
"You can sell them to them." Just as Lan Yue was running frantically, the system suddenly spoke in her ear.
"You can dilute the Enlightenment Tea many times over and then sell that tea to them. As long as you don't give them the Enlightenment Tea leaves, those people won't notice."
The system's tone was encouraging.
Lan Yue hesitated, "Isn't it said that this tree is not tolerated by the current Heavenly Dao? If I sell a large quantity of tea, will it attract attention from above?"
She had witnessed the madness of those Void-Eating Spirit Rats before, and of course she didn't understand why the Heavenly Dao was so crazy. Logically speaking, the Enlightenment Tea Tree and the Heavenly Dao shouldn't have any hatred or conflict, right?
"It's alright, just dilute it." The system said calmly.
Lan Yue was relieved to receive the system's affirmation. She secretly ordered a batch of tea for those people and then hurriedly went to the system space to shake the tea trees.
…
Although the process of the Questioning Bridge competition is very simple, it takes more time than the Xuanwu Grand Formation competition because it requires one person to enter the Questioning Bridge individually.
Some people are confused about their cultivation and don't even know what they want. So they spend a lot of time on the Bridge of Inquiry.
Some people were even trapped on the Bridge of Inquiry and couldn't get out. They were eventually carried out by the elders of their sects.
Of course, a small group of people drank the tea sold by Lanyue and happily passed the competition.
Even if some people knew, they could only watch helplessly, since there were no rules before the competition that they couldn't use anything.
These people looked at each other in the mirror beside the Bridge of Inquiry, while Lan Yue kept her merits and fame hidden in the background, secretly counting spirit stones in the system space.
Excellent! She's amassed another large batch of top-grade spirit stones. She's truly a master at making money!
Next, once the ancient array plate is activated, there will be no shortage of spirit stones!
Lan Yue sat cross-legged in her room, happily counting her spirit stones over and over again.
She's been so busy making spirit stones lately that she's barely paid attention to gossip. So, she took this opportunity to open the system panel again to see if there was any fresh gossip.
[Lan Yue: Huh, last time I heard about a female player who seemed to have cut ties with everyone she dated before. What happened?]
Just as Lan Yue was about to continue flipping through the pages, she suddenly heard a series of polite knocks on the door.
When Lan Yue opened the door, she found a woman she didn't recognize. The woman had long, silky hair, wore a red dress, and had bright red lips.
She doesn't seem like a disciple who came to compete; she looks more like a modern queen from somewhere.
Lan Yue was stunned in an instant.
"Junior Sister Lanyue, I've finally found you." Tong Zhuo gave her a bright smile and grabbed the girl's hand.
"As expected, those people were all boring. You're the one who really inspires me."
Lan Yue was still shocked, so the "modern queen" in front of her was the same sea king who had been watching the drama unfold earlier!
How did we find her here?
"As expected of the first place winner of the Xuanwu Grand Formation competition, she looks much smarter than those others." Tong Zhuo smiled as she led the young girl in front of her into her room, her eyes filled with affection.
Lan Yue: "!!!!"
Help! Something's not right with this opening.
Beautiful and fashionable fairy, look closely, I'm just a little girl!
Lan Yue screamed wildly in her heart.
"Lan Yue, take a look at this jade tablet. What do you think of my current idea? I plan to inscribe an array on it, not only a sound transmission certificate, but also a recording array and a photo recording array..."
Tong Zhuo enthusiastically discussed the jade pendant in his hand with the little girl.
"I not only plan to gather all of these together, but I also plan to inscribe a series of interconnected formations. If any one of these formations is dismantled, the others will be completely destroyed, and the entire jade tablet will be ruined."
"Of course, this is just my initial idea, because I feel that this is the culmination of my own research. If I were to let those people steal it so easily, wouldn't that be utterly infuriating?"
"Of course, all of this is based on the premise that I have developed a multi-functional predictive ability that can not only transmit sound and leave images, but also provide defense for the holder..."
"Perhaps one day we can use this jade pendant as a form of entertainment, chatting and playing games with other people..."
When it came to her own field, Tong Zhuo became incredibly talkative, speaking more and more without noticing that the young girl opposite her was already dumbfounded.
At this moment, Lan Yue had only one thought: Could the person in front of her be the future Steve Jobs?
"Well said, I fully support you." Lan Yue excitedly grabbed the other person's hand.
It turns out she was the one who misunderstood. She must have had too much nonsense in her head. Little did she know that she was following the path of a female protagonist starting a business!
"My lady, would you be willing to let me invest in you?" Lan Yue was excited.
"Investment?" Tong Zhuo was a little puzzled. What did he mean by "investment"?
"Fairy, I'm the one who's going to give you spirit stones, so you can start your business to your heart's content from home!" Lan Yue waved her arms, full of heroic spirit.
Tong Zhuo, on the other side, had a very strange expression. This was the first time she had ever seen someone come over and deliver spirit stones directly like this.
"How much are you going to bet?" Tong Zhuo thought that the other party was just a young girl, so she probably wouldn't be betting much.
She originally came here hoping that the two of them could work together to find more ideas.
However, when Lan Yue poured out the mountain of spirit stones that looked like a small hill from her spatial ring, Tong Zhuo fell completely silent.
Silence is the tone of Beiling tonight.
