Chapter 1441: Which One Is The Cheapest? (2/2)

Everyone was stupefied.

But the staff looked at Huang Xiaolong with a troubled face and said, “This, this Young Master, according to our commerce house’s regulations, one must pay half price as a deposit first to view the residences.”

In truth, the Silver Fox Commerce did not have such regulations, but the staff had noticed that Huang Xiaolong and the Azure Dragon Emperor’s Disciple Chen Zhao didn’t see eye to eye. Therefore, he made up such a rule to avoid getting in trouble with Chen Zhao.

Half the price as deposit? Huang Xiaolong’s lips curved into a mocking sneer. However, he did not take out the silver fox token yet. Instead, he waved his hand and a pile of spirit stones fell thumping on the floor.

Heavy rumbling noises echoed in the hall as abundant spiritual energy permeated inside it.

Everyone in the hall was dumbfounded.

“That residence is five hundred and sixty million low grade-seven spirit stones, right? According to the exchange rate, that’s 19,930 plus top grade-nine spirit stones.” Huang Xiaolong pointed at the pile of spirit stones and stated, “There are 19,940 top grade-nine spirit stones here, take the extra spirit stones as your tip.”

Chen Zhao, Li Qunhao, Fang Xuanxuan, and even the two old women behind Fang Xuanxuan were astonished as they stared at the pile of top grade-nine spirit stones exuding startling spiritual energy.

Top grade-nine spirit stones... Cultivators rarely took out such high quality spirit stones for transactions. Even someone of Chen Zhao and Fang Xuanxuan’s status were reluctant to use them.

“Have someone check these spirit stones. If there is no problem, then, let’s go view the residence.” Huang Xiaolong calmly said to the Silver Fox Commerce staff, ignoring the reactions on Chen Zhao and Fang Xuanxuan’s side.

The Silver Fox Commerce staff came to his senses. His attitude towards Huang Xiaolong changed immediately, and he became much more respectful. “Young Master, kindly wait for a moment, I will go get our superior.” He turned and scurried off.

At this time, Azure Dragon Emperor’s Disciple Chen Zhao turned to look at Li Qunhao, clearly asking Li Qunhao if Huang Xiaolong was really a meagre Fortune Emperor Palace’s branch disciple?

Li Qunhao was shocked and helpless, it had never crossed his mind that Huang Xiaolong could have so many top grade-nine spirit stones.

Soon, the Silver Fox Commerce staff returned and there was a middle-aged man behind him.

The first thing Huang Xiaolong noticed was that this middle-aged man’s arms were thick and muscular, and he was excluding a white-jade luster. Huang Xiaolong guessed that he might have practiced some kind of physique tempering technique.

When the middle-aged man arrived, he first greeted Chen Zhao and Fang Xuanxuan, and then beamed at Huang Xiaolong. “I am the Silver Fox Commerce branch’s Supervisor Liang Yuan. We have finished verifying Young Master’s top grade-nine spirit stones, please allow me to show Young Master the residence.”

Huang Xiaolong nodded.

“Wait!” The Azure Dragon Emperor’s Disciple Chen Zhao suddenly stopped them.

Everyone’s attention fell on Chen Zhao.

“Liang Yuan, that residence, I want it!” Chen Zhao said to Ling Yuan. With a wave of his hand, a spatial ring appeared in the air, showing hills of low grade-seven spirit stones. He went on, “There are five hundred and seventy million low grade-seven spirit stones inside this spatial ring.”

Liang Yuan was taken by surprise due to Chen Zhao’s offer, and was troubled by his demand.

According to the rules, Huang Xiaolong had paid for the residence, so the residence naturally belonged to him. On the other hand Chen Zhao’s identity was making him hesitate. After all, Chen Zhao was not just some general Emperor’s Disciple, not to mention, the Nine Dragons Emperor Palace and their Silver Fox Commerce’s higher echelons were on good terms.

Another sneer rose up on Huang Xiaolong’s face as he saw this. He took out Bei Xiaomei’s token and threw it at Liang Yuan, and said, “If you cannot make the decision, then ask your branch chief to come out.”

Liang Yuan was inwardly displeased at Huang Xiaolong’s words big time, but when he saw the silver fox token, his face tightened in horror.
