Chapter 160: Making a Scene (2)

Those men said, “What we said is true! Their enchanted runes really don’t work!”

The cultivator who scolded the two young men shouted, “Big brother, this doesn’t work now. What to do? How do we get the queuing numbers then?”

The man who had been making a scene said angrily, “Who the fuck are you?”

“Dude, I won’t mess with you then. I’ll go back to queue in line.” The cultivator then ran away with a grin.

“Shit! What the hell just happened?”

Qi Yueshi sneered, “So they used such dirty means only to get the queuing numbers! So disgusting! I will never sell a single rune to people like you!”

“Pah! Who wants your runes! Guys, let’s go.” Since no one here believed what they said, the man could only leave with his minions.

Qi Yueshi and others also went back into the shop after giving them a pooh.

Rong Yi then got off the carriage after people all went away.

On seeing him, Qi Yueshi and others hurriedly took him to the second floor, “Little Yiyi, this is your fault! You sent someone to tell people they were making a scene for the queuing numbers, right?”

Rong Yi gave them a smile, “You are not that stupid.”

Zhong Zizhi snorted, “We are not stupid enough that we couldn’t even tell someone was trying to help. The trouble-maker wouldn’t be so stupid that he would tell everyone he used such dirty tricks, otherwise it wouldn’t work next time.”

Zhu Xinyu patted Rong Yi’s shoulder, smiling, “You are so smart. I guess no one would buy a word of those people, and they also couldn’t use this against us anymore.”

The smile on Rong Yi’s face then went away, “Do you know who it is?”

Tang Shangru said, “I guess it should be the rouge shop we used to go to before. Recently we had attracted much more new guests through your enchanted runes that might be of their old customers. Their customers have halved. Besides, the rouge and pearl powder we make is no worse than theirs, plus ours is much cheaper, of course people would buy things here. We also plan to expand our business, so the spiritual stones we make from your enchanted runes, you know, we still want to use them.”

How much they liked the rouge shop before equaled how much they hated it now. How could they use such dirty means to exclude their competitor?

“The spiritual stones you made out of the runes I gave you before, you should give them to me. I am in urgent need. But for those I gave you later, you can use them to open more shops.” Rong Yi also hoped that their business could become better and better. So he took out the runes he had refined, “The one hundred on the top are for ghost cultivators to use. You can set the price at 800 medium spiritual stones each. And those below are the same as I gave you before. Still the old price.”

Tang Shangru said surprisingly whole taking them over, “800 medium spiritual stones? Will anyone buy them? It’s too expensive.”

“A thing is valued if it rare.”

“All right. Just the price as you said. Oh, why did you come alone? Why didn’t you take little Sensen to see us with you?”

Rong Yi said, “Today I am out to look for a house with good feng shui and plan to move out.”

Tang Shangru and others knew about Qi Lan, of course they all supported him moving out with the kids, “The house next to ours has superb feng shui. Pity that the original owner and his whole family got murdered by their enemies before they had time to move in. Those who know nothing about feng shui all think it was all because of that house. So it’s been vacant all these years. If you don’t mind, you can go take a look.”

Rong Yi asked, “How do you know it has superb feng shui?”

“I am from a formation family. Sometimes setting formations also need feng shui to strengthen it. We bought the house we are living now is also due to the great feng shui of the house next door. But it is too big for our family, so we didn’t buy the one next door. We just set a formation next door and make use of its feng shui. But it’s quite suited for you. You got a big family. If you live there, I will remove the formation.”

“All right. I’ll go check it out now.”

When Rong Yi and others went downstairs, the waiter immediately ran over, “Boss Qi, this is the invitation from the shop owner of the rouge shop.”

They looked at each other. Qi Yueshi took it, then said, frowning, “The shop owner said they will hold a competition of refining rouge and pearl powder and embroidering robes in Haishan City. All rouge shops will join. So our shop is also invited.”

Tang Shangru sneered, “According to the tradition, new shops like ours are not qualified at all.”

Zhu Xinyu said, “I think they want to take this chance to spoil our image and end our business in here.”

Zhong Ziqiao said crossly, “Why not? Are we afraid of them?”

Rong Yi narrowed his eyes, “Although your reputation might be ruined, you still got a chance to make your name.”

Qi Yueshi nodded, “Right. We cannot waste such a great chance. From today on, we will try our best to make preparations.”

Rong Yi asked, “When will the competition begin?”

“October 15, so it’s next month.”

“We don’t have much time. You go make predations. I will come to you after I take care of the house stuff.”

“All right.”

After leaving their shop, Rong Yi came to the house next door with Rong Su. As Tang Shangru said, it indeed had great feng shui. It faced the south, complying with the Dao of heaven, obtaining spiritual qi from the earth and receiving the aura from the sun and the moon, which was good for human bodies and people’s cultivation. When the sun rises, the sunlight would shine into the hall directly. In Feng shui, a window in the east side complies with “from east comes auspicious air”. The east has the most vigorous yang qi. The window in the east could absorb auspicious qi that could ensure the peace and prosperity of the family. So this house was indeed a great one.

Rong Yi liked it on the first sight. So he immediately asked Rong Su to take care of purchasing it. He himself then went to Yin Mansion. Right after he got off the carriage, the guard ran over and reported, “Young master, your grandfather is here.”
