Ling Tian's
Buying Tea
***
The Zhong En Elder's Residence.
At the same time, the luxurious residence of Elder Zhong En, Ling We and Zhong Nian had just returned from his shopping spree. They could both see a middle-aged man sleeping on a loveseat or living room couch.
Zhong Nian frowned due to his father's behavior, while Ling We only smiled meaningfully. Zhong Nian walked up to Elder Zhong En and intended to wake him up.
"Dad! Wake up! Why are you sleeping here?" zhong Nian said as he tried to wake the father by moving his body.
Elder Zhong En immediately woke up but suddenly his expression turned extremely gloomy. Elder Zhong En looked silently at his daughter with a slightly displeased look. It certainly made Zhong Nian feel strange and wonder.
"Dad! What's with your face? Why so tangled?" ask Zhong Nian.
"Why did you wake me up when I dreamed that Young Master Ling Tian was teaching me to slowly make a formation like this?" elder Zhong En replied back to ask and pointed at Ling Tian's artificial formation furnace. His tone was even a little cold.
"When it's in the final stages, Young Master Tian taught me!" elder Zhong En continued with his complaints.
"Dad.. N-not what Nian'er meant to do! Nian.. Nian'er doesn't know if you're dreaming like that!" zhong Nian said sadly and the sense of wrongness was immense.
Elder Zhong En saw the only princess lowered her head and felt very regretful of her deeds could only sigh deeply and stroke her hair shoots gently.
"That's it.. No need to feel guilty! Dad is okay! Looky.. Father will set up this formation properly this time!" elder Zhong En.
After saying that, Elder Zhong En made a slow hand seal move and a yellowish ray of light suddenly appeared.
"Like this.. Then like this.. And last like this!" elder Zhong said as he continued to move his fingers and control his Qi energy and soul force.
Zhong!
From the beam of light it suddenly shot a bright beam in front of Elder Zhong En and formed an alchemy furnace-shaped formation.
"Successful! Look at! Dad made it! Hahaha.." Elder Zhong said with excitement.
The princess who saw her father laughing happily became delighted and started to smile. And so did Ling We.
"Good dad! I made it!" zhong Nian.
"Good father-in-law!" added Ling We.
"Haha.. Thank ye.. Thank you! I'm so happy this time! Let's celebrate this success and cook more food for us and Young Master Tian as well as all the residents of this house! Oiya Nian! Take daddy's wine in our family storage!" Elder Zhong exclaimed loudly and continued to laugh. He had forgotten his disappointment to the princess who had cut off his beautiful dream.
Zhong Nian quickly agreed, while Ling We could not help but be pleased. How not? Eating and drinking free wine was something he had expected the most. He was truly grateful to Ling Tian for making this kind of test to his father-in-law.

"Then, is there anything else besides this map Manager Pu?" asked Ling Tian. He was a little hopeful that there was something else that could catch his attention.
"That's.. There is no Young Master Ling! Just a regular resource or heirloom! Which I'm sure Young Master Ling will never glance at him!" answer Manager Ma Pu.
It was not without reason that Manager Ma Pu said such a thing. The entirety of the Treasure Pavilion's board had known or rather been told who the owner as well as the person who was auctioning the immortal fruit in the Cloud City of Wei Empire.
If an immortal fruit alone was possessed then at the auction by this Young Master Ling, then what was the price of the resources that Manager Ma currently held in his eyes? Not to mention the reason the Ling Clan had suddenly become the ruler of the eastern mainland all of a sudden. The Treasure Pavilion speculated that it was all because of the existence of this extremely abundant immortal fruit that Young Master Ling had. And that speculation is not wrong at all.
Ling Tian smiled at Manager Ma Pu's reply, he was indeed not entirely about to look for anything else that could catch his attention. He asked this because to add to the conversation. He sipped tea in front of him which turned out to be galactic tea as well.
"Ah.. This galactic tea is indeed very refreshing!" ling Tian said with a face of satisfaction.
"Does Manager Pu have any other still-dry galactic tea? I want to buy it!" continued Ling Tian.
"Haha.. Young Master Ling again met the right person! Galaxy tea is one of the productions of our Treasure Pavilion! Young Master Ling can buy it from me! How much will Young Master Ling buy?" manager Ma Pu said with a big smile. He is sure to get enough money again from this business that will be established.
"How much does this branch of the Treasure Pavilion have?" ling Tian asked which made Manager Ma Pu frown.
"We certainly have quite a lot of galactic tea. I mean how many ounces does Young Master Ling want?" Manager Ma Pu asked.
"I want to buy everything that this branch Treasure Pavilion has!" said Ling Tian.
"Whata! Everything been? T-Master Young Ling! Did I not hear it wrong? We currently have nearly six kilograms of galactic tea! Are you really going to buy it all?" Manager Ma Pu was very surprised. He immediately made sure and asked the truth of Ling Tian's words.
Ling Tian smiled at Manager Ma Pu's shock before nodding his head.
"That's really Manager Pu! I'm seriously going to buy it! But five pounds!" replied Ling Tian.
Ma Pu's manager immediately nodded then stood up and went to ask a servant to fetch the galaxy tea for him. After that, he sat back down at his place.
"So what's the overall price?" Ling Tian asked.
"One ounce of galactic tea will I cherish specially for Young Master Ling eight hundred gold coins. If one kilogram of tea means eight thousand gold coins. Then eight thousand multiplied by five then the total amount is forty thousand gold coins!" manager Ma Pu calculated. A beautiful smile could not help but be engraved on Manager Ma Pu's face after knowing this enormous amount of transactions.
Ling Tian nodded and was satisfied with the price Manager Ma Pu offered. He also smiled at this. Ling Tian threw one storage ring at Manager Ma Pu and instantly caught it.
"In him are four hundred low-tier spirit stones! Isn't that quite comparable to forty thousand gold coins?"
