Chapter 738: What’s This!?

One piece of equipment a day!
Hearing these, their expressions became very interesting too. They looked at each other and, after a while, burst out laughing. The second shop owner added, “Not only that, but this Sir Aristocrat also said that he will be selling his leftover equipment at these shops. Sell one left leftover equipment per day, haha!”
The third shop owner fiercely slapped his own thigh, laughed and said, “Sell one piece of leftover equipment per day, haha! No matter what kind of equipment it is, he won’t be making any money this way. From the looks of it, this Sir Aristocrat has too much money and doesn’t know how to spend it, right?”
“He definitely doesn’t lack money!” The rest all laughed and said, “He doesn’t lack money, after all, haha!”
Going back to Hong Dali’s side, from floor 11 to floor 23, then to floor 35, in just half a days’ time, he had already spent more than six million Galaxy Dollars…
Actually, equipment that was of slightly better quality would already cost over 10,000 Galaxy Dollars at this place. However, Hong Dali didn’t think like how a normal person—he only bought equipment that hadn’t been embedded with gemstones!
One must know that here, in the Galaxy Alliance Center, the worth of equipment depended mostly on the gemstones or alien cores embedded in it. For those plain equipment that wasn’t embedded with anything, they would only cost a few thousands or so. Therefore, Hong Dali spent more than six million Galaxy Dollars and bought as much as 700 pieces of equipment…
The rest of the money was all spent on buying shops.
“Brother Dali, you are really…” Yin Tianzong was astonished. He could only sigh and said, “A prodigal!”
“Oh, I still have space.” Hong Dali’s space watch had quite a lot of space inside it, so he kept all the equipment he bought inside. “I might need to use this stuff in the future, so I might as well buy them now. If I don’t need them next time, I can just throw them into the shops and sell them!”
Look at how this fellow buys things, disregarding if it was useful or not and just selling it if it wasn’t useful in the future!
“…” Yin Tianzong clasped his forehead—compared to Hong Dali, he was like a loser. Although he also wanted to spend money sometimes, the problem was that he didn’t lack anything because the Galaxy Aristocrats had everything. But now, it looked like buying stuff seemed very interesting and satisfying too!
After purchasing equipment and accessories, they went to floor 47. The stuff sold here was the alien cores and gemstones.
By now, there was a large group of people following behind them, all of whom were the shop owners on this level—these people were waiting for Hong Dali to start buying shops so they could rush up to recommend their own shops!
Of course, they needed to wait because Hong Dali needed to shop and buy things first before buying shops!
On this level, Hong Dali wasn’t in such a rush anymore.
The most important reason was that he didn’t have the patience to pick out those slightly better pieces of equipment just now because they wouldn’t be so important. But these alien cores and gemstones were different—to stack up on their attributes, these were the main items needed.
Since he was aiming to become the greatest prodigal in the Universe, he should only enter the largest shops and buy the best items—therefore, Hong Dali directly went into the largest shop on this level. But once he went in, he was stunned for a while.
This shop had a size of at least 20,000 plus square meters, there were a circle of inner and outer display that were all displayed with gemstones and alien cores.
Of course, this wasn’t what he was stunned about.
The true reason was because of a person he saw.
The person had a slender back view, eight Third Order Planet Warriors guarded around, and the shop employees were all bowing 45 degrees towards her, not daring to even breathe heavily.
This person had silvery hair and held a book in her hand. She just stood there quietly in front of a display, choosing the gemstones and cores she liked.
Aristocrat.Jiang Qianxue.
“Huh? Qianxue, you are here too?” Hong Dali went in and curiously asked, “Why, do you need to buy attribute gemstones?”
“You guys are here too?” Jiang Qianxue looked towards Hong Dali. The images of Hong Dali killing Feiyun in order to save those innocent citizens appeared in her mind again. Smiling, she said, “I came to see if there’s anything that I might like. How about you?”
She looked very beautiful when she smiled. There wasn’t any sense of the loftiness that people associated with Galaxy Aristocrats. Instead, she looked very graceful and elegant, like a pure daffodil.
“Ah, I came here to squander.” Hong Dali rubbed his nose and answered matter-of-factly, “My heart is still jumping from the battle just now, hehe. Therefore, I came here to relax.”
“You are really direct.” Jiang Qianxue smiled again.
This Hong Dali’s straightforward and direct manner was quite likable. He didn’t pretend and wouldn’t beat around the bush.
It was very comfortable interacting with him.
“Qianxue, you looked really beautiful when you smiled just now!” Yin Tianzong’s eyes went straight and said, “You never seem to have smiled at me before. My Godddddd! Why is it that you never smiled at someone so perfect like me!”
“Tianzong…” The atmosphere was instantly destroyed. Jiang Qianxue slowly clenched her fist in anger. “Can you don’t be so humiliating…”
“All… Alright…”Tianzong stepped back in fear. Then, he hurriedly sucked up to Jiang Qianxue and said, “If there is anything you like here, just let me buy it for you!”
Then, he started learning from Hong Dali. “This, this, and this, I don’t want these few, pack up the remaining ones!”
“Yin Tianzong!” Jiang Qianxue was so angry that her whole body was shaking. “If you keep embarrassing yourself like that, do you believe that I am going to kill you!”
Yin Tianzong instantly teared—he was buying stuff the same way that Brother Dali did, but why was the result so different…
Hong Dali turned his head around and asked, “Huh, Brother Tianzong, Qianxue, what are you guys doing? Fighting again?” Saying so, he casually pointed towards an alien core in a display counter and said, “Let me take a look at this one, thank you.”
“Did you see that!” Jiang Qianxue waved her fist towards Yin Tianzong. “Look at Hong Dali, this is the normal way of buying something, OK? What you were doing just now is like planning to rob them!”
Tang Muxin: “…”
Li Nianwei: “…”
Lucifer: “…”
The rest: “…”
Everyone opened their mouth wide in astonishment. What’s this!?
Yin Tianzong teared again…
That’s a facade! That’s definitely a facade! The way Brother Dali buys things was much more aggressive than me just now…
“O… Okay, Sir Aristocrat…” The attendant carefully placed that alien core on Hong Dali’s outstretched hand and said, “Please… Please take your time…” This little lass was so agitated that her hands were shaking. This honorable Double Honorary Aristocrat actually thanked her! He actually said thank you! This was practically like being in a dream!
“Yup.” Hong Dali held that alien core that had an attribute of Strength +8 in his hand and played with it for a while. Then, he placed it back and casually looked around again. He pointed at another attribute gemstone and said, “Let me take a look at this one too.”
“All… Alright…”
Very quickly, after taking a look at the gemstones, Hong Dali shook his head and suddenly asked, “Yup, I don’t like these ones. Do you have uncut raw stones here? I want raw stones, not those already processed.”
Huh? This Hong Dali actually wants raw stones and not processed ones? What situation is this?
“Dali.” Jiang Qianxue gradually walked up and asked, “Isn’t it better to use the gemstones that are already cut? Why do you want raw stones?”
“Hehe.” Hong Dali laughed and said, “Secret!”
“I am not concerned at all about your secret!” Jiang Qianxue angrily turned her head away. “Why the need to act so secretively, humph!”
“Relax, I really have use for it.” Hong Dali grinned and said, “After I am done with it, I will give you some too, hehe.”
This Hong Dali is going to give me a present again?
Upon thinking of this, Jiang Qianxue instantly blushed. But she shook her head immediately, as she couldn’t accept his present again without giving anything back in return. That wouldn’t look good. Also, although gemstones were something very valuable, she didn’t lack these with +10 stats, anyway…
Instead, Yin Tianzong was sure that what Hong Dali gave would definitely be something good, so he came up close to them too, smiled and said, “Brother Dali, give me some of it too when you are done, hehe.”
“That’s for sure, hehe.” Hong Dali nodded.
By this time, the attendant had already gone inside their storage room to retrieve the item. There were two Galaxy Aristocrats and a Double Honorary Aristocrat here. Naturally, they didn’t dare to object.
After a short while, the attendant took out some sealed raw stones and said, “Respectable Sir Aristocrat, please take a look. Are these the raw stones you wanted? These ones are still sealed, the raw stones inside haven’t been checked yet…”
“Yup, that’s right, these are the ones I want.” Hong Dali stretched out his hand and said, “Let me take a look.
“Okay.” The attendant placed a raw stone the size of a fist onto his hand.
Hong Dali had already tested on the gemstones and alien cores just now, but he couldn’t enhance them, which was a problem. For someone who sought to achieve the best in everything like Hong Dali, if the gemstones and alien cores couldn’t be enhanced, that would be meaningless.
Towards his friends, Hong Dali counted these expensive gemstones and alien cores by headcount—a full-body equipment set had 20 slots for embedding, and only those super-quality gemstones and alien cores would be chosen to use for embedding. The normal ones that only had +10 stats weren’t enough to match his status as a prodigal, right?
Secretly using the gem processing skill, Hong Dali softly squeezed the raw stone and a layer of useless material peeled off. Very quickly, the attribute gemstone inside was revealed—Strength +8.
Gem processing.
On Earth, before he had connected with the Universe, Hong Dali’s enhancement skill could increase the stats by more than ten. It was very powerful.
But now, in the Universe, the effect of this skill was weakened by a lot. After enhancement, only four attribute points were added.
Strength +12.
“Only average.” Hong Dali shrugged and said, “I just want this kind of raw stone, how many of it do you have here?”
