Chapter 1210 - 1209: Knowing the Score
"For small amounts of things, it's a hassle to find me, and you might feel embarrassed. How about I leave all the Purple Crystals with Liu Da? Whoever needs them can just check with Liu Da using their account and collect them."This immediately solved Tang Rao's concerns in Wen Jiancheng.
"Boss, that's a great idea."
"I think our boss is the genius strategist of the Kao Shan Sect. He can think of anything. It's truly beyond our expectations."
Tang Rao happily accepted their compliments while internally mocking himself.
Features like sending red envelopes were all learned by Tang Rao on Blue Star. Speaking of gratitude, Tang Rao should thank those creative developers.
"Tang Rao, you've got quite the knack for learning and applying. How come I never thought of sending red envelopes in Illusion City? If we could recharge in Illusion City and get what we want, wouldn't that be even better?"
Fang Jinxiu also grabbed a red envelope, although not much. She habitually cashes out whatever she grabs, but with Tang Rao's money, unless she goes to Liu Da to collect it, all the Purple Crystals she painstakingly grabs don't end up in her pocket.
"Jinxiu, you're my real genius strategist. I've been thinking about it for ages, and you instantly came up with it."
Fortunately, Tang Rao's residence was some distance from Fang Jinxiu's, and it was the middle of the night. Otherwise, he might have been called a pervert if he rushed over to give Fang Jinxiu a flying kiss.
"What did I come up with? I didn't think of anything!"
Fang Jinxiu, after doing a good deed, was clueless about what she had done, which made Tang Rao's effusive praise somewhat underserved.
"Didn't you just mention recharging? We can make a recharging Jade, set up a recharge point, and use it within the Kao Shan Sect. When the time is right, I'll promote Illusion City widely, just like the Land of Immortals, turning the Divine Realm into an Internet plus Divine Realm. Wow, just thinking about it feels incredibly grand."
Tang Rao's eyes sparkled with charming brilliance, as if he saw countless adorable and lively Little Purple Crystals waving at him.
"I thought Illusion City had spread across the whole Divine Realm, but it turns out it's only limited to the Kao Shan Sect!"
Hearing that the market was so big, Fang Jinxiu became eager to try.
"Of course, it's only the Kao Shan Sect. As long as I haven't established a foothold in the Divine Realm, this thing can't be publicized. Otherwise, we'd only be destroyed by higher-level gods."
While everyone knew it was a feasible business, only Tang Rao knew how to carry it out, so it absolutely couldn't be publicly executed.
Countless bloody examples lay before Tang Rao, and he didn't want to risk it himself.
"I see. I wondered why you didn't want to spread Illusion City to the entire Divine Realm. It's good that you've thought that far."
Fang Jinxiu could understand Tang Rao's mood at this moment.
A man who once held sway in the Land of Immortals, now in a place like the Divine Realm with masters everywhere, Tang Rao's sense of disparity was indeed significant.
Fang Jinxiu began reflecting on how, as Tang Rao's woman, she could help him, a problem she needed to consider at present.
The next day, Tang Rao took Fang Jinxiu out for a stroll. Walking through the market in the Divine Realm, Fang Jinxiu trembled all the way.
She was afraid someone might dislike Fang Jinxiu and provoke her. Fortunately, no one was bored to that extent.
"The market in the Divine Realm isn't much different from the market in the Land of Immortals. The only difference might be that the people in the Divine Realm have keener eyes. Tang Rao, am I right?"
Fang Jinxiu felt quite pleased with herself for this discovery.
"Right, but also not right."
Walking side by side with Fang Jinxiu, it seemed like Tang Rao wanted to chat more with her. In reality, he was worried about Fang Jinxiu being bullied by people in the Divine Realm, and he might not react quickly enough.
"What do you mean by that?"
Fang Jinxiu focused intently on Tang Rao, trying to find the answer in his gaze.
"Your intent to scrutinize is too obvious. Everything you look at catches your interest. These people aren't shrewd, they just see you as a genuine potential customer, so they look at you like you're a Purple Crystal. I'm different; I glance over everything swiftly, not lingering over any shop's wares for more than three seconds. I'm the kind of person who doesn't plan to buy anything, so naturally, they ignore me."
So that's how it is.
Fang Jinxiu thought she had discovered something money couldn't buy. It turns out her discovery was wrong. Without Tang Rao's explanation, she could have made a fool of herself later.
"Let's check out this shop."
Tang Rao pointed to a shop and said to Fang Jinxiu.
"Kao Shan Shop? Tang Rao, don't tell me this is yours too?"
Having witnessed Tang Rao's business acumen before, Fang Jinxiu was surprised that this shop had such a prime location, bustling with pedestrians, clearly doing well and making profits. If it was indeed Tang Rao's, that would be extraordinary.
"Didn't I tell you this shop is mine?"
Tang Rao was puzzled. Had he really not mentioned it? Perhaps he was so used to being low-key that he forgot to say.
Fang Jinxiu rolled her eyes at Tang Rao, pretending not to have seen his pretentious demeanor earlier.
"Boss, you're here?"
As soon as Tang Rao's right foot stepped through the door, Zhang Wang appeared at the entrance to welcome Tang Rao's arrival.
"Boss, are you bringing a guest to pick out something? Where's sis-in-law?"
After saying that, Zhang Wang immediately corrected himself: "Oops oops, Boss, are you bringing sis-in-law to pick out something?"
Zhang Wang wasn't sure if his timely correction had avoided Tang Rao's displeasure.
"This is also your Sis-in-law. Li Qi Qi had an accident a few days ago and is gone."
To prevent Zhang Wang from bringing it up again, and since Zhang Wang was his own person, Tang Rao took the time to explain.
"No way, Boss, you have to take care of yourself and not upset yourself over these things."
Zhang Wang's ability to comfort people was likely something he picked up for free, and it wasn't very effective.
"All right, enough. I can't handle such big shocks."
Tang Rao restrained himself with all his might to suppress any harmful thoughts.
"Boss, please come inside. I've collected a lot of good stuff recently, all saved for you."
Speaking of those treasures he'd acquired, Zhang Wang was immensely proud.
"Shall we go up and take a look?"
All the common items were downstairs. The finest goods were upstairs. Tang Rao knew Kao Shan Shop like the back of his hand, where things were placed, what was expensive, and what was cheap.
"Boss, do you want to look at weapons, a mental method, or things even I can't recognize?"
Zhang Wang offered Tang Rao a series of choices.
"Show me the things even you can't recognize."
