Chapter 51: Unable to Fork out Silver, Only Able to Pay with Spirit Stone
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
A few years ago, the main reason why Jiang Ping took his three daughters and lived in seclusion in Xiaoyu Town was that most people in Xiaoyu Town were ordinary people who didn’t know how to cultivate.
Although ordinary people could be good or evil, they were much more stable and peaceful compared to cultivators, whose lives were cruel and full of life-and-death struggles.
People’s desires were endless, but ordinary people would keep such desires to themselves.
In the cultivation world, people could display their desires unscrupulously.
As long as you had the strength, you could satisfy your desires as much as you wanted, and no one would dare to refute you.

Therefore, fighting and killing were common in the cultivation world.
Jiang Ping really didn’t want to have anything to do with the cultivation world, as it might affect the growth of his three daughters.
Therefore, as long as it involved struggles in the cultivation world, Jiang Ping would stay far away.
There was no way to hide this time. After all, he had already bought the new house.
Of course, hiding didn’t mean that Jiang Ping was afraid.
For example, the man in front of him was a minor character in the refinement realm. Jiang Ping could kill a lot of such characters with a single palm strike.
However, if he were to fight a refinement realm expert, he might provoke an origin core realm expert tomorrow, and then a nascent soul realm expert the day after…
In short, there would be a pile of troublesome matters!
Jiang Ping was not afraid. However, he really disliked trouble, and he was also afraid that the three girls would be hurt.
Therefore, he didn’t intend to interfere in the middle-aged man’s matters, who was currently in front of him. He also wouldn’t remind him that with his current cultivation, it would be a waste to ask for a high-quality spirit stone.
In any case, it was just a high-quality spirit stone, and he had countless of them.
Right now, he only wanted to settle the matter regarding the house as soon as possible, and then send this fellow away, and everything would be fine.
Retracting his gaze, Jiang Ping asked indifferently, “A high-quality spirit stone, right?”
“Yes, a high-quality spirit stone.” The other party hesitated for a moment, and in the end, he nodded his head in embarrassment.
Looking at Jiang Ping sipping his tea and didn’t answer immediately, he thought that Jiang Ping was unwilling and was thinking about how to answer him, his heart couldn’t help but tense up.
He gritted his teeth, and as if he had made a decision, he said, “Mr. Jiang, to tell you the truth, I also know that the price of one high-quality spirit stone for this house is a little too high.”
“Tam not one of those greedy people. It’s just that I have no other choice. If you can agree, you will be my friend in the future. As long as you have any orders, I will not dare to refuse!”
“Of course, if you really can’t take out high-quality spirit stones, then two thousand silver is also fine.”
As he said this, the color in Qiu Chi’s eyes dimmed quite a bit.
In fact, after staying in Fusheng City for so long, he was very clear about what a high-quality spirit stone actually meant.
Spirit stones were the most common currency used by cultivators to trade with each other. They could be roughly divided into low-quality, middle-quality, high-quality, and supreme-quality spirit stones…
The ratio of spirit stones of each quality to spirit stones of the previous quality was ten to one.
In other words, one high-quality spirit stone could be exchanged for ten middle-quality spirit stones and a hundred low-quality spirit stones.
In Fusheng City, someone with a middle-quality spirit stone could be considered a lord. Most could only scrape together a few dozen low-quality spirit stones after emptying out their assets.
Unaffiliated cultivators, might not even see a low-quality spirit stone in their lives.
Ifa high-quality spirit stone appeared in Fusheng City, it would definitely attract the attention of all the cultivation powers in the city!
Therefore, Qiu Chi did not have any confidence at all when he asked for one high-quality spirit stone as the selling price.
Not to mention his house, there probably wasn’t any house that was worth a high-quality spirit stone in the entire city. His price wasn’t just inflated, it was an exorbitant price!
However, he also knew what he was worth. Even if Jiang Ping agreed to the price of a high-quality spirit stone, his final intention was not to possess that spirit stone.
It was not that he did not want to possess it, but that he was not qualified enough!
In his current situation, if someone knew that he had a high-quality spirit stone, he would definitely not be able to see the sun tomorrow.
In the world of ordinary people, killing and looting usually happened in the wilderness. But in the world of cultivators, such a tragedy could happen anywhere at any time!
Therefore, in his final and the worst case scenario, he had planned to use the high-quality spirit stone to ask some important figures of the major powers to help him eliminate his enemies.
A high-quality spirit stone was enough to invite a nascent soul realm expert!
In the end, he could just leave and never return to Fusheng City.
Of course, this was a desperate move that didn’t leave a way out. There were safer methods, but everything revolved around getting a high-quality spirit stone.
Ifhe couldnt get a high-quality spirit stone, all his plans would be in vain.
“Two thousand taels of silver. The price is reasonable, but I don’t have that much cash on hand,” Jiang Ping sipped his tea and said unhurriedly.
Hearing this, Qiu Chi let out a sigh. Although he knew that any normal person would understand that a high-quality spirit stone was worth more than two thousand taels of silver.
But when he heard that the other party intended to use silver instead of spirit stones to trade, he couldn’t help but feel disappointed.
He sighed softly, he said, “Mr. Jiang, you are an expert. You must know that the value of this house is actually not just two thousand taels of silver! If it was in the past, I would not mind selling it cheaper. I would consider you as a friend. However, I am really in urgent need of a sum of silver now.”
“Therefore, I hope that you can help me by gathering two thousand taels of silver. I.
Looking at the clothes on Jiang Ping’s body and the imposing manner he exuded, he knew that he was definitely not an ordinary person.
Thus, he still hoped that he could fight for a little more.
However, before he could finish his words, Jiang Ping waved his hand and interrupted him. “Sir, you have misunderstood.”
“Tam unable to fork out two thousand taels of silver at this moment, so I am willing to take a small loss and give you a high-quality spirit stone.”
Before he could finish his words, he flipped his palm, and a jade-green stone appeared in his palm.
Qiu Chi was still paying attention to what Jiang Ping was saying, but in the next moment, he was blinded by the light of the stone.
He was instantly stunned.
