Chapter 11: Bet

The next day….

Maple Leaf Town 

You could see a dozen of people with horses carring a a couples of wagons full of rice, people on the street look over curiously.

“Who would tought that one day I will escort my own goods.”

Luo Ninshuang said to herself, she was sitting next to Zhang Qinfeng very close.

“Hey there’s a first for everything right? By the way mom did you like my signed?”

Zhang Qinfeng said.

“Feng’er I have to say that your drawing is very good.”

Luo Ninshuang said with a smile.

Yesterday Zhang Qinfeng show her a wood board, that he painted and draw especially.

He wrote in a certain way the name of the store and drawn-out in the back ground different drawings that were eye catching. Even her at the Qi Gathering Realm look at it with interest.

1 hour later….

Zhang Qinfeng was putting 2 board signs while Luo Ninshuang was organizing the rice on the storage.

The first signed with drawing said the name he pick for the store.

[Fairy Spiritual Rice Store ]

The next sign had the information for the prices and quantity.

[ High Quality Spiritual Rice prices ]

5,000 pounds Price 35 spirit stones

1,000 pounds Price 7 spirit stones

  100 pounds Price 1 spirit stone

[ Prices and amount are Non-Negotiable ]

“Now we ready.”

Zhang Qinfeng nodded satisfied.

Human nature is full of gossip so right after Zhang Qinfeng hang the boards, dozens of people walking by look at it.

“Hmmm the prices is so cheap? And says is high quality?”

“Perhaps is a scam? They rice is so low level and that’s why is so cheap?”

“Yeah look at the last Price 100 pounds for only 1 spirit stones that current value.”

“Now that I think about it really is good deal you buy more and paid less.”

“Is good tactic but who knows how good the rice are?”

The whole street had mixed opinion some believed it was a scam. While some we’re interested, so it did not take a while for someone to walk in front of the store ask.

“Hey…you…. is…this is true if i…i….i…buy 1, thousand pound and only need 7 spirit stones?”

A little girl who stuttered she had clean face and was wearing good clothes. She look about 11 to 13 years old.

Behind her there was a a guard he was at the Flesh Quenching Realm Late stage.

“Yes.”

Zhang Qinfeng nodded.

“Tsk..tsk.. poor little girl she about to be scam.”

“Hmm where have u seen her before?”

“O right she is the a kid from the Lin family Mingmiao .”

Some said.

“Can I have a look?”

Lin Mingmiao ask.

“Mrs..this….”

The guard following her was hesitant, it was unnecessary for Lin Mingmiao to waste money on Spiritual rice.

She could buy other cultivation resources he was also worried that he would be implicated.

“Come in.”

Zhang Qinfeng made a gesture not caring about the menacing look of the guard.

“Mom we have a customer!”

Zhang Qinfeng entered with Lin Mingmiao and yelled.

“Oh? So fast.”

A charming voice sounded.

“Feng’er this is…”

Luo Ninshuang came and look at Lin Mingmiao and the guard behind her.

“Wow….Au..nty..your beautiful.”

Lin Mingmiao stuttered after seeing Luo Ninshuang.

Clearly she have a speaking problem but for Zhang Qinfeng and Luo Ninshuang it didn’t bother them.

“I have seen senior!”

The guard who was following Lin Mingmiao bowed in panic.

Why? Because when he came he realized this woman was a Qi Gathering Realm cultivator!

And it seem this Young men who he was looking menacingly was her son!

Zhang Qinfeng brought a small fist of rice and let Lin Mingmiao look at and her eyes lit up.

“Miss this very good quality.”

Even the guard couldn’t help but said.

“So how much you wanna buy?”

Luo Ninshuang ask friendly. 

“E….e…e.. a 1,000 p..o..unds.”

Lin Mingmiao took out from a hanging purple bag around her waist 7 spirit stones.

Zhang Qinfeng knew this bag was not a space tool like the Qiankun pouch.

Only cultivators at the Qi Gatherig Realm can used them.

After buying the rice Lin Mingmiao left happily with a slick look. She had just received 10 spirit stones by her brother, and she didn’t know how to used them.

Now she was thinking of using the rest of 3 spirit stones to buy a couple stuff she wanted, while also using the excuse she didn’t waste the money but brought “resources”.

“Tsk….could she be scam?”

“Who knows look at the guard behind his face is normal perhaps is good.”

Lin Mingmiao’s guard was carring the 1,000 pound bag in front like a baby.

Back to Zhang Qinfeng side.

He was helping his mom put the rice in different size of bags.

So when the customers come they could just give then the exact quantity they want.

For an hour there was no movement and the gossip from before are slow down.

“Is someone here?”

A rough voice sounded.

“Hello there how may I help you?”

Zhang Qinfeng said with a friendly smile.

It was a middle age man who had some blood on his clothes, clearly it was no his and he was carrying the corpse of bird monster.

Zhang Qinfeng saw this man was at the Organ Tempering Realm.

“Can I see the rice?”

Ask the middle age man.

Zhang Qinfeng with a polite smile took out a mini coup of tea that had rice on it.

Feeling the spiritual Qi on the rice the man eyes lit up!

“Give me 200 pounds.”

The man said while taking out 2 spirit stones, this man was thinking at first to sell the bird but he was regretful.

Since this type of monster is very delicious, unlike the other monster he typically hunt for, they are used for armor and weapons. 

Who would tought he would find such a good thing.

“Okay thank you for purchased have a good day.”

Zhang Qinfeng said politely while putting the spirit stones away.

Night came and for the rest of the day the did not have more customers.

So they closed the door with a profit of 9 spirit stones for the day.

He was feeling pretty ambitious they planned to stay until the rice is sold completely, then get back to the hill..

Luo Ninshuang brought some meat she had cook before for dinner.

“Mom let’s cook rice.”

Zhang Qinfeng said.

“Ha do you think you can cook rice? I’m afraid you would burn the store down.”

Luo Ninshuang scolded ruthlessly while her charming eyes rolled.

“Hehehe, mom you have so little confidence on your son?”

Zhang Qinfeng with a cunning smile.

“I give birth to you, so I know how much you weight.”

Luo Ninshuang said dismissively.

“Oh yeah? Mom how about we make a bet?”

Zhang Qinfeng felt offended so he dare.

“Bet with me? For what?”

Luo Ninshuang ask.

“If I can cook a good rice in 30 mins you owe me a……. idk you but your owe me something do you dare or are you afraid mom?.”

Zhang Qinfeng didn’t know what to ask for but still made the bet with provocation.

“Hahaha good, good same for you if you lose your have to do something for me too!”

Luo Ninshuang was successfully provoke by her cheap son and agreed.

“Okay good now let’s start.”

Zhang Qinfeng went and grab a cooking pot, he wash it and also grab Spritual rice.

After that he put some water on the cooking pot with rice.

He grab corn oil and salt, he put a half tea cup of corn oil on the rice. And the he put some salt on it.

“Mom could you turn the fire on?”

Zhang Qinfeng ask.

Luo Ninshuang look deeply at her son and turn on a fire.

Weirdly in thks world cooking was on top of a jade platfom that look red, if you put fire on it it would get hot.

30 mins later….

After he move the rice inside the pot with a spoon so it didn’t burn it was ready!

“Oh mom you have no idea! How could I not know how to cook simple rice? Back on earth everything was to expensive so instead of buying fast food y cook for myself.”

Zhang Qinfeng tought with a slick look.

Luo Ninshuang look at her son curve smile, and shook her head.

She was curious about how her son could cook rice, even though it was a simple thing to do.

“Feng’er where did you learned?” 

Luo Ninshuang ask.

“Hehehe you owe me mom!”

Zhang Qinfeng did not responded but answer with a victory smile.

“Okay okay you can ask me for anything just answer how did you learn?”

Luo Ninshuang said helpessly.

“Well I’ve seen you cook, plus let’s be honest cooking rice is very simple.”

Zhang Qinfeng responded.

Luo Ninshuang suddenly smile very beautifully.

She couldn’t help but be happy her son is so much like her, becoming independent.

But at the same time she was worried about his cultivation.

After eating both Luo Ninshuang and Zhang Qinfeng went to the back, but they did not fall asleep.

Before they sleep both of the start practicing, even though Zhang Qinfeng hadn’t brokethrough.

Every night or every time he was free he would circulate the Qi Gathering technique to cultivate dilgently.
