These pearl necklaces, yes, the whole row, help me package them all up!
Bring out all the diamond necklaces in this cabinet too!
I’ll take a hundred silver bracelets! Yes, in that exact model!
What? You don’t have that many? But this is such a big jewelry store, isn’t this what you guys do for a living?
Hey, Xiaolan, that jade Buddha is also on the list, throw it in the rucksack…
All the shop attendants burst into a frenzy of action, each of them continuously retrieving items of jewelry from the cabinets.
They discovered for the first time that selling jewelry could be so straightforward, as there was no need at all to merchandise and promote products to customers. They only needed to continuously retrieve jewelry from the cabinets. This feeling could only be described as… extremely satisfying!
If it wasn’t for the man who had placed the bank card with a balance of one billion on the counter, they’d honestly believe they were assisting criminals in committing a robbery!
The beautiful female manager of the jewelry store stuck to An Lin like glue, carrying his rucksack in his stead with a seductive smile plastered across her face.
As she considered the exaggerated performance and profit figures this sale would generate, her smile became even more glamorous. She forced the opening of the rucksack as wide as possible, hoping to cram in as much jewelry as possible, this feeling was… so satisfying!
An Lin was also taking this rare opportunity to experience what it was like to be a rich tycoon, throwing piece after piece of valuable jewelry into the rucksack as if they were mere cabbage, this feeling was… so satisfying!
By this time, masses of awestruck bystanders had already surrounded the store.
They looked on at the astonishing scenes taking place in the jewelry store, all of them a little dazed with shock.
If it wasn’t for the satisfied smiles present on the faces of the manager and all the shop attendants, they’d all think the jewelry shop was being robbed!
It’s the same act of buying jewelry, but why is the disparity between person to person so severe?
So this is what it looks like when rich people shop, my eyes have been opened!
I’ve seen a lot of rich people, but I’ve never seen a rich person that buys jewelry so frantically!
To be so liberal with money, could he be that young master Wang Cong?
Impossible, the guy at the front is clearly much more handsome than young master Wang!
Oh my God, I’m so tempted to run in and ask that handsome tycoon if he’s looking for a mistress.
Stop dreaming, can you not see that beautiful jewelry store manager? She’s following the man wherever he goes… she’s clearly already staked her claim on the role of mistress.
…
In very little time, An Lin and Xu Xiaolan had almost robbed the whole jewelry store of everything…
Oh, wait no, they’ve ‘shopped’ the whole jewelry store of everything!
Then, An Lin and Xu Xiaolan made their way out from the store, where a standing ovation from the store attendants and awestruck bystanders was awaiting, before placing the rucksacks filled with jewelry into the car.
En route to the car, the whole scene was abuzz, as if some celebrity had made an appearance at the shopping center.
After getting back to the car, An Lin began to store all the jewelry into a storage ring.
The cultivators of the Kingdom of the Nine States actually did not really place much value on the jewelry of the mortal world. It was only out of curiosity that they’ve delegated An Lin with the task of shopping in their stead.
The jewelry was considered to be a native product of the mortal world as they were produced in the mortal world and were crafted by techniques unique to the mortal world. They were essentially pretty souvenirs, fun to play around with when bored, but rarely will they be held in an important regard.
And it was due to this reason that their standards for purchasing jewelry were generally quite low, with no demands for style and quality.
Take diamond necklaces as an example, their only request was that there were diamonds on the necklaces, irrespective of the style or even how many carats the diamonds were. Hence, it was a simple task for An Lin.
However, the subsequent clothes-shopping was going to be more difficult.
Clothing in the mortal world was quite trendy and fashionable, much to the delight of some cultivators.
Some cultivators would make an effort to wear clothes from the mortal world when they go out.
Although the list for the clothing to be purchased wasn’t very extensive, the requirements were all quite high.
Brand, type, measurements, style… all these factors had to be considered…
An Lin massaged his brow as he stared at the list in his hand, feeling a little distressed.
To shop in someone’s stead was not easy.
However, he had already accepted the spirit stones, so he had no choice but to grit his teeth and persevere.
…
Thus, An Lin and Xu Xiaolan made a frenzied return to the international shopping center.
This time, the difficulty in buying clothes increased drastically.
There were two reasons for this. Firstly, the task itself was already difficult. The second reason was due to the existence of Xu Xiaolan.
She was also interested in the clothing of the mortal world and wanted to buy a few sets for herself to take back to the cultivating realm.
An Lin had initially thought that Xu Xiaolan would only need a few minutes to pick out clothes for herself.
However, he soon realized he had severely underestimated Xu Xiaolan’s propensity for shopping…
…
An Lin, do you think I look good in this dress?
You look gorgeous, let’s get this one!
There’s no hurry, let’s look at some other clothes first.
…
An Lin, what do you think about this t-shirt?
Wow! So youthful and energetic, absolutely stunning, let’s hurry and get this!
Hmm, but I feel like the color tone is a bit too dull. Let’s keep looking…
…
An Lin, look, quickly, what about this floral top?
Uh-huh, it suits you very well, you look like a floral fairy in it. This one is certainly not to be missed!
Really!? But I feel like the floral print is a bit too convoluted, so let’s look at some other styles.
…
An Lin, look here…
Yes, that one’s fabulous…
An Lin, look over there!
Uh…
An Lin, this one on me…
Uh…
…
An Lin, this one’s not bad, maybe we should get this one?
Uh…
…
!!!
A ploy suddenly took shape in An Lin’s head and his eyes began to glow.
This one’s great! Buy buy buy! Let’s buy this one!
Before Xu Xiaolan had a chance to formulate an objection, An Lin stood upright, grabbed the clothes and ran straight to the counter to pay!
The shop attendant couldn’t help but turn to Xu Xiaolan with a look of envy at the sight of An Lin sprinting away to pay.
You have such a good boyfriend, I’ve never seen a man take so much initiative in clothes-shopping!
An expression of pride appeared on Xu Xiaolan porcelain-like face.
We’ve only bought one item of clothing, but my plan is to buy five items of clothing. He’s got a long way to go yet!
An Lin was just returning from the payment counter, looking very pleased with himself when Xu Xiaolan’s remark reached his ears. Upon hearing her words, his legs immediately gave out under him, leaving him kneeling on the shop floor!
…
As dusk settled over the skyline, their shopping journey finally came to a conclusion.
His clothes-shopping plan had only reached twenty percent completion. His original intention was to complete fifty percent, but there was a mishap. As for what that mishap was… well, you know.
Xu Xiaolan bought five items of clothing as well as a luxurious evening dress.
That night, Huang Shanshan had organized a ball, inviting the top politicians and merchants of the southwest region.
The purpose of the ball was actually just to let these people meet An Lin and the others.
That way it would be more convenient if something were to happen in the future as they would all do their best to cooperate with An Lin and the others in completing their mission.
For this ball, An Lin had also bought himself a tuxedo.
Although this was his first time in a tuxedo, An Lin’s great figure, coupled with his handsome face and the refreshing disposition unique to cultivators still gave him a dapper and suave look at a glance.
As for Xu Xiaolan, needless to say, even if you were to put her in some coarse garments, it would still detract nothing from her stunning beauty.
Therefore, for her, the issue of ‘whether clothing suits her’ was a completely non-existent one!
The Ferrari containing An Lin and Xu Xiaolan sped toward the White Jade Palace as night fell.
The White Jade Palace was a private club, whose main structure was a white palace, hence the name.
And the ball organized for An Lin and the others was being held at the very same White Jade Palace.
