Chapter 116 Opening Business
The next morning, just as dawn was breaking, a ray of sunlight cast a faint golden glow over the entire Mingxi. There were already some cultivators outside the Linlang Pavilion, including a few demon generals. Gu Yuchuan gave up the idea of letting Song Chuan go out to take charge, after all, his cultivation level was a bit low, and if he went out to take charge directly, he might be suppressed by the demon generals and unable to speak, which would make him lose face.
Gu Yuchuan clapped his hands, and the maid Qing Shuang came in and began to comb his hair. He couldn't do this kind of thing. Today was just too important. Everything had to be done well, including his appearance. Snake demons were known for their handsomeness and beauty. The two blue scales on his eyebrows added to his eerie handsomeness.
Today, Qing Shuang put a hair crown on him, which looked much more formal than usual. After all, in the human race, many people of status wear hair crowns when they go out. It not only serves to hold the hair in place, but also shows a person's status and position through its material and specifications. After all, people who are not wealthy certainly cannot afford hair crowns made of gold and jade.
His headdress was made of a single piece of white jade with gold plating, which added to his richness. He was dressed in a blue robe, and to avoid looking too plain, he wore a jade pendant at his waist. This pendant was also carved from a single piece of warm jade, and anyone who knew its value could tell at a glance.
After all, he's running a business. You need to present yourself in a sophisticated and elegant manner first; otherwise, it will be hard for others to believe that what you're selling is of high quality.
He tidied himself up, and another half incense stick's time passed. There were even more cultivators outside, which made him a little anxious, so he immediately went out.
As soon as the gate opened, the noisy crowd outside quieted down. After this period of publicity, Gu Yuchuan had become a celebrity on the outskirts of Yunhaize.
He stood at the door, arms outstretched, his voice booming. Sunlight streamed from behind him, adding a touch of sacred radiance to his presence: "First of all, thank you all very much for coming and supporting the opening of our Linlang Pavilion. Before you go in, please allow me to say a few words about the special offers we have for you today."
Someone shouted, "Master Gu, please say what you have to say. We all have great respect for you."
Ordinary cultivators generally hold alchemists and weapon refiners in high regard, unless their cultivation level is overwhelmingly superior. After all, you will inevitably use pills and magical artifacts on your cultivation path, so it's natural to want to maintain good relationships with them.
Gu Yuchuan was also very happy. Now that they were being so nice, the chances of them causing trouble were much smaller.
"Alright, since everyone has come so generously, I must offer you some discounts today. First, for every thousand spirit stones spent today, you will receive a hundred spirit stones off."
These demon cultivators had never experienced such a discount before, and they cheered immediately upon hearing it. They only knew that they could buy things with fewer spirit stones, so naturally they were very happy. After all, no one would complain about having too many spirit stones.
Gu Yuchuan spoke again: "That's not all. Today, all fellow cultivators who buy spiritual artifacts can purchase a top-grade magic artifact at a 20% discount. If you want to acquire treasures for your younger family members or subordinates, don't miss this opportunity. This event is only valid for today."
This time, many demon generals were tempted. A top-grade magic weapon could make a Qi Refining cultivator virtually invincible, but the price of a top-grade magic weapon was not much different from that of a low-grade spiritual weapon, so the cost-effectiveness was indeed not high. However, a 20% discount changed everything. They couldn't help but be tempted; this was a good way to force them to make a purchase.
"The last thing is the auction of the mid-grade defensive spiritual artifact, Taiji Purple Smoke. I believe many fellow Daoists have come for this. The auction will start promptly at noon. The Daoist who wins the bid for this treasure will not only receive Taiji Purple Smoke, but also a membership in my Linlang Pavilion. From now on, all purchases will be at a 10% discount. Alright, I now declare Linlang Pavilion officially open. Everyone, please enter in an orderly manner."
After he finished speaking, countless dazzling lights appeared behind him, making the place a dazzling spectacle of colors. The opening of the Linglang Pavilion was bound to be a grand affair. After all, his soul had once been human, and he still retained some human habits, particularly enjoying such grand displays.
At this moment, before everyone had even entered, an immense pressure emanated from the sky. Gu Yuchuan, however, showed no fear. This aura was all too familiar; it was the Black Shark Demon King. This was a shareholder of their Linlang Pavilion, here to build momentum and let everyone know that behind Linlang Pavilion was the number one expert on the outer perimeter of Yunhai Pavilion. Naturally, no one would dare cause trouble.
The Black Shark Demon King was dressed in a long black robe today, looking majestic and imposing.
"Gentlemen, thank you for supporting us at Linlang Pavilion. Master Gu is a demon general I have high hopes for. This Linlang Pavilion also has my own influence, so you can trust its reputation. I hope you will abide by the rules here. We welcome any customer who wants to make a purchase, but if you want to cause trouble, I have plenty of ways to deal with it. Alright, I won't bother you any longer."
After saying that, he left directly. Only the Black Shark Demon King could say such threatening words. After all, his cultivation level was high, and he was the managing demon king of the outer area of Yunhai Marsh, the superior of everyone. If Gu Yuchuan had said these words, there would definitely have been some dissatisfaction. But since the demon king said them, they felt that it was only right. This is the suppression of strength in the world of cultivation. If your cultivation level is much lower than someone else's, you will think that whatever they say is right and you will not see any problem with it.
Finally, the doors of the Linglang Pavilion opened, and everyone began to enter and get busy. At this time, Gu Yuchuan no longer needed to stand here. He went up to the second floor. Although he was the owner, his cultivation level was considerable. He was a demon general at the third level of Foundation Establishment. He could talk to the demon generals on the second floor.
The demon general who came up was very polite to Gu Yuchuan. After all, the future pricing for custom-made spiritual artifacts, and whether or not to do it at all, would depend on their relationship, so it was important to maintain a good relationship.
It has to be said that these demon generals are indeed rich. They sold six or seven spiritual artifacts in a short time. Even after the discount, they earned more than five thousand spirit stones. This made Gu Yuchuan very excited. He had struck it rich. After the event, he would buy pills. Speaking of pills, he remembered being ambushed by the alchemist Xuan Niao demon general in the simulator. This time, he would finish him off in reality.
