43 You don't want your affairs to be exposedMost of the soul guides here are storage soul guides, and there are even ultra-large soul guides with a capacity of 50 cubic meters. However, the surface is severely worn, and the internal space definitely does not reach the standard value of 50 cubic meters. There is even a risk of losing items if they are stored in them.
In this era, Douluo Continent does not have soul guide technology. Even if Flanders wants to repair it, he does not have the ability to do so.
You know, a 50-cubic-meter soul guide in good condition can easily be sold for 200,000 gold soul coins. As for this one, no one would even buy it for 1,000 gold soul coins.
Taking his eyes away from the wall, Qi Tian caught a glimpse of a small piece of crystal in the corner of the wall.
This piece of crystal was not very eye-catching, and even had a lot of dark yellow impurities in it. In the eyes of outsiders, this was a crystal of extremely poor quality. But Qi Tian knew that this was the plate crystal gold he was looking for.
It is not used to make decorations. The hardness of gold itself is extremely high. When encountering soul power fluctuations, it will be twisted into a ball. It is the best choice for making weapons.
Qi Tian does not know how to make weapons, so even if he wants to keep the gold crystal plate as a collection, he will not give it to Tang San.
He looked away, turned and walked to the shelf on the other side and picked up an item at random.
Flanders is a profiteer. If his purpose is too strong, he will definitely be ripped off by the other party. His money is not blown by the wind, so how can he give it to this guy for nothing?
"Boss, how much is this bracelet?"
Flanders opened his eyes and glanced at the item in Qi Tian's hand, but he did not leave his seat. "You have a good eye. This is a storage soul guide. There are five cubic meters in it. The minimum price is one thousand gold soul coins. If you want to buy it, pay for it. If you don't want to buy it, it's up to you."
If the bracelet soul guide can be used normally, one thousand gold soul coins is indeed very conscientious. But is Flanders a conscientious businessman? The answer is no.
This soul guide device appeared to be fine on the surface, but perhaps it had been dropped by someone, the internal storage space was no longer there. Although this soul guide device would occasionally emit a trace of soul power, it was essentially completely damaged.
"It is indeed a soul guide, but unfortunately, it is a piece of junk. How about fifty gold soul coins and letting me pick one or two worthless things from your store?" Qi Tian said calmly.
Flanders's eyes were no longer as casual as before. He turned his eyes to Qi Tian and said, "Two thousand gold soul coins. If you don't accept it, turn left when you leave."
Qi Tian put down the bracelet and said calmly: "Boss, I won't beat around the bush. I sincerely want the fifty gold soul coins. In addition, I will keep a secret for you."
Hearing this, Flanders laughed instead of getting angry, "Who are you? What secrets do I have that you need to keep? Boy, if you can't explain it today, you must buy this soul guide bracelet for 5,000 gold soul coins."
Qi Tian sneered and leaned casually against the shelf beside him. "The things on the shelf behind me must have been dug out from the graveyard by you. I have to admire you, boss. You have a wide range of hobbies. You open the store and sleep during the day, and go out to buy goods at night. You manage your time very well."
As he spoke, he clapped his hands.
Flanders narrowed his eyes slightly, and his look became increasingly unfriendly.
Qi Tian continued, "If I remember correctly, half of these soul guides came from the Elephant Armor Sect. They went to the Elephant Armor Sect to pick up scraps or rob tombs. Boss, if the Elephant Armor Sect knew about this, what would they do?"
Given Flanders's temperament, these things were most likely not obtained from legitimate sources. As for whether it was as he speculated, it was not certain. Soto City was very close to the Xingdou Great Forest, and he might have received them from those soul hunting teams.
If it weren't for the soul guide found on Huyan Hua, Qi Tian might not know the origins of these things.
Seeing Flanders's expression, he was obviously frightened by him.
"I was wondering who it was. Turns out they wanted to blackmail me." Flanders pretended to be calm while lying on the chair. He said in a neutral tone, "Boy, if you think you can do whatever you want just because you have some strength, you are totally wrong. You can try to see if you can walk out of here."
As he spoke, a wave of soul power emerged from Flanders' body, and with a snap, the door of the shop closed.
"Boss, before I came here, I already had a lot of evidence. If I don't go back after an incense stick, my companions will inform all the major forces of this. If a Titled Douluo comes forward, can you still stay out of it?"
"As I say, sell me this bracelet for fifty gold soul coins. In addition, let me pick out a few worthless items from your store, and the matter will be over. After all, you don't want your affairs to be exposed, right?"
Qi Tian's voice was not loud, but every word sounded like thunder to Flanders' ears.
He knew the origins of the goods in his hands better than anyone else. Picking up the leaks of those big sects was an offensive thing. If the matter was really exposed, what good would happen to him?
Suddenly, the door of the shop behind Qi Tian creaked open.
"Haha, as you wish. I still have some power in this Soto City, and I hope you won't let me down." Flanders said with a smile.
Qi Tian smiled faintly and threw fifty gold soul coins to Flanders.
While accepting the soul guide, he also picked up three stones from various corners of the store, and the Plate Crystal Gold was among them.
After he left, Flanders quickly closed the shop and removed all the items of unknown origin from the shelves. He then immediately wandered around the city as if nothing had happened.
…
That night, Qi Tian booked a room in a hotel near Shrek Academy, and he had no plans to check out in the short term.
The next day, he came to the Rose Hotel again, randomly found a teahouse, and sat down in a position where he could see the whole picture of the Rose Hotel. The big drama that would happen next should not be missed.
Dai Mubai has the strength of a soul master, but Qi Tian does not know the power of his soul skills. Taking this opportunity, he just observed it.
"Sir, I see that you are quite young, so why do you want to go to the Rose Hotel?" The shop assistant who had just finished cleaning the table could not help asking.
Qi Tian almost choked. He looked around and made sure there were no other customers in the store. Then he explained, "Nothing. I was just enjoying the scenery."
He was the only customer in the store, and the shop assistant took the opportunity to chat with him. The shopkeeper saw this but did not blame him.
"Guest, let me tell you, staying at the Rose Hotel for one night costs at least two gold soul coins. However, usually two people stay there, so forget it if you're alone."
As he was talking, the guy pointed at a man and a woman outside the window and said, "Hey, two little brats who haven't even grown all their hair yet are actually going to the Rose Hotel. My god, which noble family are they from?"
The little brats he was talking about were Tang San and Xiao Wu. However, when he was speaking just now, a hint of jealousy flashed in his eyes.
You know, he only gets two gold soul coins a month working in a teahouse. It's equivalent to a night's stay at the Rose Hotel, and his monthly salary is gone.
