Chapter 76
Hua Yufeng together with others bought some Imperial Beast Talismans and magical weapons and then left. Recently the budget of the mercenary team came very tight, while the quality of magical weapons and Imperial Beast Talismans were very low. At the time of payment, Hua Yufeng was very embarrassed when finding the the receptionist indifferent.
“Xiao Jingting purchased a magical weapon of one hundred and twenty thousand taels of silver.”
“What a wealthy childe!” Zhao Li couldn’t help exclaiming. The mercenary team who made a great deal only got thousands of taels of silver, and 10 thousand taels of silver at most. But this childe could afford one hundred thousand taels, which was very enviable!
“How does Xiao Jingting have so much silver? He was not that wealthy before, was he? We are brothers in the team, so we all get about the same salary, right?”
“Maybe he pretends to be a poor man. Noble childes like him can get large amounts of money as long as he sweettalks their seniors. He is rich enough but still shares the harvest,” Hua Yufeng said jealously.
Looking at Hua Yufeng, Zhou Fang thought to himself, “Xiao Jinfeng spared no efforts to do the job, didn’t he? And he should take his share. It seems Hua Yufeng bores Xiao Jinfeng a grudge.” Thinking that he had to work under Hua Yufeng’s hand, Zhou Fang didn’t say a good word for Xiao Jinfeng.
Zhao Li nodded and replied, “Yes! Good Job, we weren’t born in a family as rich as him! But one hundred thousand taels of silver is not a small number, so even for the parents of Xiao Jingting, it is a great loss. If Xiao Jing’s father is unwilling to pay the bill for Xiao Jingting, then he would be in great trouble again.”
Trading company had their own dun group and if you didn’t repay in time, they would come to collect the money, using cruel means.
“What is he afraid of? His father will help him anyway,” Hua Yufeng said.
“That’s true.” Zhao Li answered.
“Xiao Jinfeng has practiced into the fifth level,” Zhang Meng said.
Zhao Li nodded and said, “Amazing. He has practiced into the fifth level in a short time.”
Xiao Jinfeng was prestigious in the mercenary team. The reason why Xiao Jinfeng was chased out of the mercenary team was partly because Xiao Jinfeng was poisoned and for this, he lost the chance to achieve a higher level. The member in the mercenary team had to support their family and it need them to risk their lives to fight with the demonic beast. The mercenary team didn’t need encumbrances.
Within a year, Xiao Jinfeng had practiced into the fourth level and was going to achieve the fifth level.
Hua Yufeng clenched his fist. Before Xiao Jinfeng left the team, some people began to miss his warm heart, and someone else proposed to ask Xiao Jinfeng back. Looking at the attitude of Xiao Jinfeng, he realized that even though he went to invite him back by himself, Xiao Jinfeng wouldn’t come back.
Actually, when Xiao Jinfeng left, Hua Yufeng was a little regretful, the mercenary team lost a cheap hatchet man, so the rate of completing tasks declined sharply. What’s worse, recently the mercenary team couldn’t make their ends meet and members became less and less satisfied with him, and thus Hua Yufeng got much more pressure.
Sometimes, Hua Yufeng was missing the day working with Xiao Jinfeng. During that time, although Xiao Jinfeng often threw his weight around, he could finish his task successfully.
…
In the trading company.
“Xiao Jingting is super rich! He spent one hundred thousand taels to buy a magical weapon. Even though the friar who practiced into the seventh and the eighth level won’t spend money that handsomely.”
“He is born with a silver spoon, so he can ask his daddy for help if he couldn’t get enough money to repay.”
“The Spiritual Tower is not bad. It is said that this magical weapon is designed to be used in the Foundation Establishment. But as a result, when refining, there was something wrong, so its level was lowered down. But the material was costly.”
“But it is a defective weapon anyway!”
“It has been put here for many days but some elders of big clans who had cultivated into the seventh level weren’t willing to buy it. Unexpectedly, Xiao Jingting bought it finally.”
“…”
Xiao Jingting’s generosity became the hot topic discussed by others in the trading company.
The minute Sun Qi and Zheng Liming went into the trading company, they heard people’s amazement at Xiao Jingting’s generosity.
“Man, I have never thought he is that rich.” Sun Qi was speechless. Although Xiao Jingting used to be richer than them, the difference hadn’t been that large. Sometimes, he would buy a gift of seven or eight hundred taels of silver for Miss Sun. And that was the high limit.
One hundred thousand taels of silver for the pagoda? How come he became so loaded?
“What a lucky dog!” Zheng Liming answered jealously.
“He picked up the gold, didn’t he?” Sun Qi answered, although Xiao Jingting only paid the down payment, it also should be a great sum of money.
Zheng Liming answered jealously, “No, but he picked up the Heaven Wealth and Land Treasure. Man, he must find more than one Heaven Wealth and Land Treasure!”
Sun Qi nodded and said, “It makes senses.”
Sun Qi felt it a great pity and Xiao Jingting became much more indifferent since they came back this time. If it were in the past, he should get a lot of benefits. Since Xiao Jingting now had a lot of money, he could have profited from him easily. Sun Qi was very regretful that if he had known Xiao Jingting would ask for his help, he would have given him dozens of taels of silver and he wouldn’t be so awkward.
“The guy only paid for three hundred taels of silver as down payment and later he has much money to repay. Will he ask his parents to repay for him? Although Xiao Jingting was favored. However, his father’s favorite son is Xiao Qingyan, whose pocket money is less than ten thousand taels of silver.” Zheng Liming muttered.
“He has already bought it and can’t return it. So, his parents must repay for him. They won’t watch him being beaten to death by the creditor and do nothing, will they?” Sun Qi said.
Zheng Liming nodded, saying, “Well, that’s true.”
