Chapter 657: Entering The Double Cavern Secret Realms (Part 2)

"Baolin Jia, this isn’t your first time introducing customers to me. Given your relationship, a 20% discount is already a very generous offer. Asking for 30% is too much," Toghoril Duan, the shopkeeper, said with dissatisfaction.

Even though this man looked particularly outstanding and didn’t seem like an ordinary person, Toghoril Duan wouldn’t give a 30% discount even to a Nascent Soul cultivator from the Green Lotus Sect.

He always gave a 20% discount, never more.

Toghoril Duan had always thought of Baolin Jia as a smart person.

It was good to do business with smart people, and he was willing to give Baolin Jia some leeway to bring more customers to the Elixir Cauldron Building.

However, this time, he had brought such a demanding customer.

Baolin Jia looked awkward.

He hadn’t expected that this Junior Master Uncle would really make such a demand.

"Shopkeeper Duan, this person really is my Junior Master Uncle. I’m not lying to you."

Baolin Jia explained helplessly.

He knew his Junior Master Uncle was young and didn’t have high cultivation, but he really was a Junior Master Uncle of the Green Lotus Sect.

Toghoril Duan’s expression seemed to say, "You think you can fool me?" He continued, "Anyway, the maximum discount is 20%. A 30% discount is absolutely impossible."

"Little fatty, didn’t you say that Elixir Cauldron Building has some shares from the Green Lotus Sect? How come the shopkeeper doesn’t even know the latest news from the sect?"

Kenny Lin narrowed his long eyes, and a dangerous aura began to emanate.

Baolin Jia broke out in a cold sweat.

It looked like Junior Master Uncle was getting angry, The Green Lotus Sect only has a minor stake in Elixir Cauldron Building, and actually doesn’t manage it. Junior Master Uncle, please don’t be angry. The internal news of the Green Lotus Sect is indeed unknown to outsiders."

He certainly couldn’t say that the shopkeeper doubted the Junior Master Uncle’s identity because he was too young and had a low cultivation level.

If he said that, the Junior Master Uncle would be enraged on the spot, making all his flattery efforts pointless.

"This Junior Master Uncle is not unreasonable. Since you don’t recognize me..." Kenny Lin looked at the still indifferent Toghoril Duan, who treated him like a lunatic, and took out an item, placing it on the counter.

"Do you recognize this?"

A dark blue plaque that was glistening with a crystalline luster, was clearly made of the finest jade.

Shopkeeper Duan’s indifferent expression changed the moment he saw the plaque.

"This, this..."

Shopkeeper Duan stammered, his usual fluency gone.

His eyes were wide as he stared at the plaque, then looked up at Kenny Lin.

As a partner of the Green Lotus Sect, Shopkeeper Duan had been in business here for many years and was very familiar with the plaques of the sect’s disciples.

He had seen the plaques of the eight peak masters of the nine lower peaks but had never seen those of the higher-ranking elders on the main peak, although he had heard of them.

The highest-level plaque in the Green Lotus Sect was black, it was rumored to be possessed only by the supreme elder.

Below that was the dark blue plaque.

He had never seen either of these plaques in person, but the plaques of the Green Lotus Sect all had a unique sword tassel mark, making them unmistakable.

Shopkeeper Duan found it hard to believe that the dark blue plaque, second only to the black one, would be in the hands of this young man.

He looked at Baolin Jia questioningly and whispered, "Baolin Jia, tell me honestly, is he really Junior Master Uncle?"

"Shopkeeper Duan, I’ve told you eight hundred times, he really is my Junior Master Uncle, without a doubt."

Seeing Shopkeeper Duan’s cautious demeanor, Baolin Jia felt a surge of satisfaction.

"But, but his rank and age don’t seem to match," Shopkeeper Duan said dryly.

"My Junior Master Uncle is Master Lian’s disciple. Even the sect master has to call him Uncle Master, so how is it not right?" Baolin Jia retorted proudly.

Shopkeeper Duan was instantly stunned.

Did the Green Lotus Sect’s supreme elder have such a young disciple?

"Honored guest, I apologize. I failed to recognize your esteemed status. Please forgive my earlier rudeness."

Shopkeeper Duan quickly apologized to Kenny Lin.

"Since you are a disciple of the supreme elder, Elixir Cauldron Building must show you the proper respect. Whatever elixirs you need, I will fetch them for you immediately."

Shopkeeper Duan, trembling and not daring to look directly at Kenny Lin, feared that in a fit of anger, he might report to the sect’s authorities.

"See, wasn’t that easy?" Kenny Lin put the plaque away.

Elixirs at the Elixir Cauldron Building were more expensive than those at the outer sect’s trading plaza, but with a 30% discount, they became much more affordable.

Seeing that he still had plenty of spirit stones in his storage bag, Kenny Lin ordered a large number of elixirs.

Although the 30% discount was significant, the Elixir Cauldron Building still made a profit.

The elixirs and artifacts here were among the most profitable trades, they’re often sold at several times higher than their original cost.

Kenny Lin’s request for a 30% discount was not unreasonable.

Over the years, the Elixir Cauldron Building had earned significant profits and avoided many troubles by leveraging the Green Lotus Sect’s name, benefits that far outweighed the value of mere spirit stones.

After purchasing the elixirs, he also looked at some spiritual herbs and plants.

These were raw materials for alchemy and were much cheaper than the finished elixirs.

Kenny Lin bought some of these as well.

Seeing him unreservedly sweeping up a pile of goods, Baolin Jia gathered his courage and asked, "Junior Master Uncle, are you buying all these spiritual herbs and plants to make elixirs?"

"No," Kenny Lin replied in good spirits, taking a moment to answer.

"Consuming raw herbs may not be as effective as taking elixirs," Baolin Jia reminded him cautiously.

"I know. I’m just taking them back to experiment a little bit."
