Jade Wind City.
Han Zhao brought Ji Baiwei around the outer city area before walking towards the inner city.
The Taiye District in the inner city was the most prosperous wealthy district in the entire Jade Wind City. There was a prosperous commercial street in the center of the Taiye District, and the Myriad Treasure Pavilion was located in the center of the commercial street.
As long as one approached the inner city, one would be able to see the seven-story pagoda-shaped building. This was the property of the Fang family in Jade Wind City.
The Fang family had three Force Tempering Martial Masters and ten Blood Tempering experts. They were undoubtedly the strongest family in Jade Wind City.
Although Blackrock City was not a small city in a remote corner, it was still much inferior to Jade Wind City.
At least, Han Zhao had never seen a shop that could buy medicinal pills in the inner city of Blackrock City.
In this Myriad Treasure Pavilion, not only could one buy herbs, medicinal pills, weapons, cultivation methods, and other things commonly used by martial artists, but there were also various gorgeous clothes and expensive jewelry. Moreover, the Myriad Treasure Pavilion also supported delivery services, similar to a shopping mall.
Due to the good reputation and high-quality service, although the things in the Myriad Treasure Pavilion were expensive, there was an endless stream of customers who came to buy goods.
At this moment, Ji Baiwei and Han Zhao walked into the Myriad Treasure Pavilion.
Two young attendants stood at the door of the hall on the first floor. When they saw the beautiful girl who walked in with a young face and luxurious clothes, they knew that she was another rich young lady who had come out to play.
However, when they saw the young man behind the girl, their hearts skipped a beat.
The young man was tall and had a cold expression. He had a clean high ponytail and four weapons tied behind his back. He crossed them in pairs and looked extraordinary, but he looked like he was led by a young girl. He was clearly a guard.
As attendants of the Myriad Treasure Pavilion, they naturally had discerning eyes. One of them immediately went up to them with a smile and said warmly, “Customers, what do you need?”
Ji Baiwei was about to answer, but when she remembered Han Zhao’s instructions, her face tensed up and she pretended to be cold.
At this moment, Han Zhao, who was disguised as a follower, took a step forward and said in a low voice, “We want to sell a cultivation method.’
“Sell a cultivation method?” The attendant was stunned. Then, he said with a smile, “Cultivation methods below the Blood Tempering Realm can be sold in the hall on the first floor. However, we only buy them at the cost price here. If you want to sell them at a higher price, you can auction them at the Wei family’s auction house.”
Han Zhao was stunned. This was the first time he had seen someone reject business outright. Looking at the servant’s natural expression, it was obvious that he had not acted on his own.
This Myriad Treasure Pavilion was a little particular!
“There’s no need. It’s just a difference of a thousand taels of silver. There’s no need to go through so much trouble. Call your supervisor over.” Han Zhao waved his hand.
Of course, he knew that he could sell the Hundred Poison Palm for a higher price if he auctioned it. However, after auctioning the secret manual at the Wei family’s trading company in the simulation, he was attacked when he left the city, so it was naturally best to avoid it.
The reputation of the Myriad Treasure Pavilion was very good. The probability of them killing and plundering was much lower than the Wei family’s trading company.
In addition, he remembered Ji Baiwei’s identity, so he deliberately pretended to be her follower to make her look more impressive. It was safer than being secretive.
Ji Baiwei might not be good at acting, but she was indeed a young lady who was inexperienced in the world. She would act as herself and be a vase.
It was only a difference of a thousand taels of silver… The muscles on the attendant’s forehead twitched. He had seen many arrogant guests, but he had never seen someone so generous. However, he still said respectfully, “Guests, please follow me to the fourth floor and wait for a moment.”
Upon reaching the fourth floor, the two of them were led to an elegantly decorated private room.
“Guests, please wait a moment. I’ll invite Supervisor Fang over now!”
The young man said respectfully and walked out of the private room.
After a while, a beautiful maid brought over fragrant tea and bowed before leaving.
“Wait.” Ji Baiwei had been shopping all morning and was already a little thirsty. She was about to pick up the tea and drink it when Han Zhao stopped her.
“What’s wrong? Han… Little Ding.”
Ji Baiwei looked at Han Zhao in confusion.
Han Zhao asked seriously, “Do you know what’s the most important thing in the pugilistic world?”
“Loyalty?” “It’s not.” “Credit?”
“No!” Han Zhao said helplessly, “It’s being cautious! Stay vigilant! When you’re outside, don’t eat anything recklessly, don’t drink water recklessly, don’t look around, and don’t trust anyone easily. You can’t have the intention to harm others, but you have to be wary of others!”
“Okay, I understand!” Ji Baiwei retracted her hand.
“Drink up.”
“Oh, okay.”
Ji Baiwei picked up her tea and took a big sip.
“Aren’t you going to ask why?” Han Zhao’s lips twitched.
“Why?” Ji Baiwei looked puzzled.
“You’ll drink when I tell you to?”
“You’re a good person.”
“F*ck…” Han Zhao couldn’t help but roll his eyes.
Sigh! This girl!
How could a person be so innocent?
“There’s almost no problem with the tea here, but you have to be aware of the danger.”
“Yes, yes.” Ji Baiwei nodded, indicating that she understood.
“How about this? If you go to a small village in the mountains and forests and sleep there, will you eat the food that others give you? That won’t do! Do you understand?”
“Yes.”
“Also, you said that I’m a good person. If you encounter danger, not only will I not save you, but I’ll also stand by and watch. Or I’ll turn around and leave.. What will you do? Will you think that I’m a bad person and hate me?!”
