Chapter 2961: Young Master Hong

“Sir, are you sure you want to buy it?” the saleswoman asked uncertainly.

Actually, there’s still quite a bit of trickery involved here!

Even though this city is hostile to cultivators, these businessmen love doing business with them!

Firstly, cultivators are generous and basically don’t haggle! Also, according to the normal exchange rate, one unit of currency corresponds to ten crystal stones! But in reality, these businessmen can exchange one unit of currency for just five crystal stones!

In other words, if Ye Luo really wants to buy this house, the price can be lowered a lot!

Earlier, he gave the saleswoman some crystal stones, which changed the young girl’s attitude toward Ye Luo.

“Of course, I want to buy it!” Ye Luo chuckled, “How about this, you give me the house at the original price, I’ll pay you in crystal stones, and you handle the rest, how about that?”

Upon hearing this, the young girl’s eyes immediately brightened.

Originally, if Ye Luo bought this house, he could get a partial discount! But now, Ye Luo was clearly giving all these benefits to this young girl!

In this way, the saleswoman would, out of nowhere, earn at least a few years’ worth of salary, maybe even more!

How could she not be delighted by this?

“Young Master, just wait, I’ll handle the paperwork for you right away!” With that, the young girl dashed off.

Ye Luo smiled gently, not taking it to heart at all.

“Ye Luo, you’re really being extravagant! That’s tens of thousands of crystal stones!” Luo Xue said softly.

Ye Luo glanced at her, “Anyway, your father gave me so many crystal stones, if I don’t spend them, I’m afraid the spiritual energy might expire and dissipate!”

Luo Xue glared at him, speechless for a long time! She had never heard of crystal stones expiring!

Of course, Ye Luo was just joking with her, he liked Luo Xue’s annoyed look, even though her face was veiled, Ye Luo could imagine her pouting in a huff.

But since this city uses currency, money doesn’t mean much to Ye Luo!

Soon, the young girl came rushing back and handed a fiery red key to Ye Luo.

“This is the key to your house. And this! Hmm, is a part of the discounted crystal stones, please take a look!”

It seems this young girl didn’t want to keep all the benefits to herself.

Ye Luo chuckled lightly, these crystal stones were only a few thousand, and they were of no use to him.

“You can have them all! If you don’t mind, how about we become friends?” Ye Luo said with a gentlemanly smile.

The young girl’s heart immediately started to race uncontrollably, Ye Luo felt completely different from other cultivators; he felt more like someone from the city, and he was far better than those self-righteous young men!

And one more thing, Ye Luo was wealthy! Not many young people could afford this house!

In this city, the young girl was considered a beauty, though she couldn’t compare to Luo Xue and the others.

Ye Luo didn’t have any special feelings for her, he just wanted to learn more about the city from her!

However, it seemed the young girl misunderstood his intentions.

“This is my contact information, hmm! But I’ve been a bit busy lately, I’ll contact you when I have time!”

In this city, communication methods were extremely advanced; you could use an identity token or even a house key!

Therefore, for the young girl to find Ye Luo was not difficult at all.

“By the way, my name is Fang Fang, you better remember it!”

The young girl smiled dreamily at Ye Luo, and at that moment, Ye Luo could clearly feel the killing intent in the eyes of the surrounding young men!

Geez, this young girl really knows how to attract enmity!

Then Ye Luo nodded, and he led the group out of the sales office. The location of the property was just behind the sales office, so they didn’t have much to pack and simply moved in immediately.

“Ye Luo, why do I feel like that Fang Fang harbors ill intentions towards you!” Luo Xue suddenly said.

Ye Luo burst into laughter, “Don’t worry, with my strength, she can’t harm me!”

Upon hearing this, Luo Xue immediately rolled her eyes.

Ye Luo was surprised to find that Luo Xue’s personality had changed quite a bit too.

Once they entered the neighborhood, it became quiet immediately, there were basically no cultivators, so the girls took off their veils, and Ye Luo didn’t force them not to.

The houses in this neighborhood were divided into two parts: the front part had high-rises with small areas, making them relatively affordable, while the back part had houses like the one Ye Luo bought, which, on Earth, would be called villas.

They were large and came with courtyards and rock gardens, making them very comfortable to live in.

“How dare you low-born come to this neighborhood!”

Just at that moment, a sharp shout suddenly rang out.

Ye Luo turned his head and saw that it was Hong, of course, it was one of Hong’s servants who shouted, with several sales staff around.

Behind Hong were more than a dozen guards, who were not cultivators but soldiers with weapons.

This city has a military presence, which isn’t surprising in a technologically advanced nation.

Most conspicuous were still the three young women beside Hong.

Although they were also cultivators, when looking at Ye Luo and the others, there was clearly a deep disdain in their eyes, as if having followed Hong, they had moved beyond the cultivator realm.

“Why can’t we be here?” Ye Luo asked in amusement, looking at these people.

“How dare you, this is private property, entering without permission violates the law, and you will be punished for it!” one of the sales staff snapped.

In front of Hong, they naturally had to make a show of it.

“Well, I’m already here, what can you do about it?” Ye Luo said indifferently, smiling as he asked.

“You!” The salesperson’s face flushed red immediately.

He originally wanted to perform in front of Hong, but he didn’t expect this cultivator to be so brazen.

Yet, being just an ordinary salesperson, what could he do about it!

“Hmph, a fool’s paradise!” Hong finally spoke, looking at Ye Luo with abhorrence.

Then, the more than a dozen guards behind him began to surround Ye Luo.

Moreover, they drew their weapons.

Ye Luo roughly assessed the weapons; they were quite ordinary and far inferior to the ones on drones, which reassured him a bit. If such common weapons could threaten him, then Ye Luo wouldn’t plan to stay long in this technologically advanced city.

“What are you going to do? Your actions are illegal too!” Ye Luo chuckled.

For the sake of the city’s stability, these weapons naturally couldn’t be used at will.

Although the city has a lenient policy towards indigenous people, there are limits.

For instance, randomly using weapons would not be tolerated by the city’s high authorities.
