Rebirth of the Godly Prodigal 776 Rich and Capricious

"Okay, okay." Hong Dali grinned as he consoled Jiang Qianxue. "Let's go. This level sells accessories, let me buy you some. Tell me if you see anything you like. Everyone else can get some too."

"You're giving me something again?" Jiang Qianxue hesitated slightly at the thought of being given another gift. However, it was not the first time and she was getting used to it. This time she did not object, so they started off.

In front of an accessory shop.

Speaking of which, the attributes of the accessories in the shop were average and not too valuable. However, they were beautiful…

"Aiya, Dali, this is nice!" Tang Muxin said coquettishly to Hong Dali. "I like this one!"

The accessory she pointed at was a shiny little necklace. It was blue like the sea and very pretty. It was also inexpensive at only one hundred and twenty-eight Galaxy Dollars.

Tang Muxin had been with Hong Dali for such a long time, but she rarely asked him for anything. However, she was a girl and was partial to pretty shiny accessories, much like dragons…

"Buy!" His fiancée had spoken, and there was nothing more to be said. Hong Dali snapped his fingers. "Xiaoyi, ask if the shop is for sale."

Jiang Qianxue: "…"

She only said that she liked one accessory, and you bought the entire shop?!

"This is really squandering…" Jiang Qianxue covered her face with her palm. Mentally, she started comparing him with the super genius again. "If it were him, he would definitely not be such a prodigal…"

Tang Muxin pouted. "Can you not spoil the atmosphere like that?"

Ling Xiaoyi immediately answered, "Yes, Young Master." Then, she went off to look for the shop owner.

Seeing such a big group of people who looked like rich customers at his shop, the shop owner came out to greet them personally. "Honored customers, do you see anything you like? If you see anything you like, let me know! I will give you a good price!"

Ling Xiaoyi asked, "Boss, is this shop for sale?"

"Ah?" The shop owner looked around his shop. "I do not have any accessory called 'shop'…"

Hong Dali: "…" Tang Muxin: "…" Li Nianwei: "…" Jiang Qianxue: "…"

This shop owner was really… quick-witted!

Ling Xiaoyi did not know whether to laugh or to cry. "I meant your shop. Is it for sale?"

"Ah!" This time the shop owner was shocked. "This… the business at my shop is pretty good…"

"Xiaoyi," Hong Dali snapped his fingers and said, "calculate the worth of this shop."

"Okay." Ling Xiaoyi took a look all around the shop and soon replied, "This shop is about two hundred and eighty square meters, and its location is pretty good. According to the usual price of one thousand Galaxy Dollars per square meter, that will be two hundred and eighty thousand Galaxy Dollars. The renovation is not bad, it's worth maybe four hundred thousand. All the stock is worth about one hundred and sixty thousand. Young Master, this shop is worth about five hundred and sixteen thousand Galaxy Dollars."

"Six hundred and eighty thousand." Hong Dali made an offer without hesitation. "If you are willing to sell it, I'll take it. If you're not, I'll go to the next shop."

What the heck! This was like selling all his stock and getting an additional one hundred and twenty thousand in cash. The boss agreed at lightning speed. "Sold!"

And so, a relatively good accessory shop was purchased.

Jiang Qianxue was dumbfounded. "Dali, do you… do you always conduct your business like this? Xinxin only wanted a necklace…"

"I'm rich and capricious. There's nothing I can do about it." Hong Dali grinned. "If we like it, we buy it. So simple."

Anyway, I am rich! I can be capricious, what can you do about it?!

They continued shopping.

At another accessory shop.

This time Jiang Qianxue did not stand on ceremony. "Dali, this… I quite like this…"

They were experimental lovers, after all. If she did not take full advantage of him now, then when?

"Buy!" Hong Dali snapped his fingers again. "Xiaoyi, ask the price."

They purchased a second accessory shop, that was another six hundred and twelve thousand Galaxy Dollars!

They went around the shops and bought more than ten shops in total. Just like that, they spent more than six million…

These shops were all average shops running legitimate businesses. The system did not take them into the total squandered value at all. Hong Dali was very depressed. "Sigh, I'm not being prodigal enough…"

Luckily, just then, Hong Dali met someone who would help him. It was an abject looking middle-aged man. "Can I speak to you, Young Master?"

"Eh?" Hong Dali was as polite as ever. "Sir, why are you looking for me?"

"It's like this." The abject looking middle-aged man led Hong Dali to a corner and whispered, "I saw Young Master buy those few shops. I wanted to ask the Young master if you may be interested in shops selling other things…"

"Oh?" Hong Dali sized up the man and asked, "What do you have to recommend?"

"I have a relatively big store on level seventy-one. That is the floor that sells pets." The middle-aged man hung his head down and said abjectly, "Frankly speaking, the shop is quite big. It's a pity. Quite a long time ago, about two years, my supplier encountered a Main City-level beast while hunting. He was only a Second-Order Planet Warrior, how could he win? Just like that, he died on that planet."

"That's a really sad story." Hong Dali sniffled. "What happened after?"

"After my supplier died, I could not find any other sources to obtain my supplies. That's where my troubles began." The middle-aged man said forlornly, "How can I sell pets if I don't have good pets to sell? It took a lot of effort to find some small supply channels and get some normal non-combat type pets to sell. However, how can such a big shop survive on selling only those? The business got worse and worse. If I do not sell the shop soon, I will go bankrupt…"

"So it's like that." Hong Dali grinned and nodded. "You want to sell your shop to me?"

"Yes, yes, yes." The middle-aged man nodded vehemently. "Young Master looks like a man who does big business. The shop is useless in my hands. If you take over, with your wealth and connections, you are sure to be able to find a better supply channel. By then, the shop might be able to make a profit under you. Do you think…"

"Hrm." When he heard the whole story, Hong Dali rubbed his chin. This was a good deal that came to him, and Hong Dali was not about to reject it. The big prodigal's eyes were already bright. "This is a great squandering opportunity! So, Sir, how much are you selling your shop for?"

This was prodigal speech. Everyone who came here with Hong Dali from Earth knew what was coming next and started moving away. Tang Muxin brought Li Nianwei and Jiang Qianxue aside. Jiang Qianxue was a little hesitant and reminded her. "Xinxin, Dali is going to squander again. The previous shops were still acceptable, but this one…"

"He's always like this. Don't worry." Tang Muxin did not take it to heart at all. "Let him have his fun. This fellow will feel uncomfortable all over if he does not squander every day. There's no way to stop him. Let's go over there, take a seat and have a drink."

"Okay… okay…" Jiang Qianxue could not resist turning her head for another look. "He feels uncomfortable all over if he does not squander daily… is he sick? I know quite a few good doctors…"

Then, she was pulled away by Tang Muxin. "You just have to remember that he is beyond hope. Hehe."

When the middle-aged man heard that Hong Dali was interested in buying his shop, he cheered up quite a bit and said, "The shop is a little over one thousand and three hundred square meters and its location is pretty good. There are three hundred or so ordinary pets inside. According to the normal rate of eight hundred per square meter, that's one million and forty thousand. Including the renovation, it will be worth 1.2 million. If we add the pets, it's about 1.3 million. Young Master, do you think…"

A one thousand and three hundred square meter shop including everything in it for only 1.3 million, that was a good price.

Hong Dali nodded and said, "Xiaoyi, calculate the price."

"Okay, Young Master." Ling Xiaoyi started calculating.

…

"Xinxin." Jiang Qianxue sat on a bench meant for shoppers to rest and looked at Hong Dali who was a distance away. She asked softly, "Dali… has he always been like this?"

"Ah. No need to bother about him." Tang Muxin was used to it and no longer found his ways strange. Anyway, Hong Dali may be a prodigal, but he had always had good luck. There was no way anyone could compare with him. Other people squandered and became bankrupt. However, the more Hong Dali squandered, the more he had to squander. There was simply no way to compare.

Tang Muxin said, "Anyway, Sister Qianxue, you just have to know that he is definitely not short on money."

"But no matter how much money he has, it will not last if he spends it like that." Jiang Qianxue cried softly. "We really don't need to stop him?"

"Don't worry. It's okay." Tang Muxin quickly changed the topic. "Speaking of which, this Star Harbor is really big. There are so many things inside. Unfortunately, we don't really need anything and can't shop. It's such a mood spoiler."

The last time they went shopping, they attracted a huge crowd. It was troublesome to be too pretty…

There were many of them this time. Most men only dared to look from a distance and would not dare approach them—they were a big group. Nine lackeys, Levis, Lucifer, Jiang Qianxue and the little Quentin who kept dozing off. Who would dare approach them?

The problem here was that the three beautiful ladies, Tang Muxin, Li Nianwei, and Jiang Qianxue were simply too gorgeous. They all had system-acknowledged maximum charm at one hundred and twenty-five points. Their attractiveness was not to be underestimated.

That was how, as Tang Muxin and the others sat there, they attracted a large crowd that gathered about ten meters away from them. Soon, the crowd expanded into a circle around them and the atmosphere was electric.

Actually, they were just resting and waiting for Dali to finish before continuing their shopping. Things were going well.

Before Hong Dali came back out, however, an arrogant voice was suddenly heard.

"Aiyayaya. I said there was a nice fragrance here, there are really beautiful women here!"
