Chapter 72

Without a doubt, this must be someone sent by the Xia Family, probably because the cultivators had discovered the problem with their bathhouse being unable to cultivate.

So that’s why these people were in such a rush to buy the bath water from Tangneng First-class.

Uncle Chen took out a Storage Bag, collected all the water from the pool, gave a slight bow, and then left with a few attendants.

Li Xiaobai chuckled, flipped his wrist, and the water from his Space Ring poured out, filling the pool once again.

This was water from the moat outside the city, available in as much quantity as needed.

“Woof, kid, your Lord Ergouzi has returned!”

“Your Lord Ergouzi is dead tired, doing good deeds is really not easy.”

The scrappy dog from outside staggered in and somersaulted into the pool.

“This dog can talk?”

Situ Kong looked surprised, having known the scrappy dog for a while but never realizing it could talk.

The old beggar was also watching the dog with a playful gaze.

“Woof, you’re the dog, your whole family are dogs!”

“Your Lord Nicholas Ergouzi is a supreme being!”

Hearing Situ Kong’s words, Ergouzi immediately got riled up, leaving everyone rather speechless.

“What good deed did you do?”

Li Xiaobai asked, his confidence in the dog’s intelligence somewhat shaky.

“Next door at the Xia Family First-Rate, lots of people were throwing away unwanted clothes, such a waste, so Lord Ergouzi gave all those clothes to the poor.”

Ergouzi was proud as could be, believing it had done a tremendously good deed, helping hundreds of poor people with dozens of trips back and forth, exhausting itself in the process.

But the continuous voices of gratitude deeply satisfied its just heart.

“This… is indeed a great deed.”

Li Xiaobai’s expression was odd, considering the Xia Family First-Rate was a bathhouse, it’s likely that Ergouzi had taken away the garments of the customers.

That’s good, once the cultivators realize they’re about to lead a life bare of sufficient clothing, there’s bound to be an uproar, and this will definitely cause the Xia Family quite a bit of trouble.

This Justice Elixir is effective, very powerful!

“Robbing the rich to help the poor, very strong!”

“A dog of justice!”

The two old men also gave a thumbs-up, praising continuously, which Ergouzi enjoyed immensely, its vanity greatly satisfied.

“Ergouzi, within this city, the class division is clear, and families only consider their own interests, never looking at the bigger picture, leading to the poor becoming poorer and the rich richer, and conflicts are intensifying. Don’t you think we ought to take some action?”

Li Xiaobai started to lay on the sweet talk.

The righteous Ergouzi couldn’t resist, “That’s right, as messengers of justice, we must do something, kid, you call it, how do we do this!”

“We’re going to use Tangneng First-class bathhouse to create a city of harmony and equality. I’ll take responsibility for making Tangneng First-class strong and prosperous, and you’re in charge of causing trouble, suppressing the competition.”

“Ergouzi, this city needs you!”

“Don’t worry, got it, Lord Ergouzi will ensure the common folk live well!”

The heart of justice wouldn’t allow it to waste any more time in the bathhouse, so after a short rest, Ergouzi dashed out once more.

Meanwhile, a few figures walked in from outside.

“Boss, are you selling the bathhouse formula?”

Li Xiaobai hadn’t seen these people before, but as soon as they opened their mouths, the familiar tune was there.

“No.”

“Then can you sell this pool of water?”

“My price for half an hour’s worth of water is a bargain, just 120 middle-grade Spirit Stones.”

“Deal!”

The visitor made up their mind without any hesitation and promptly paid the Spirit Stones, took away the water from the bathhouse, and left.

Li Xiaobai’s wrist flicked, and the pool was filled up again.

He was about to go mad with joy.

Ordinary water from two pools actually sold for the price of 200 middle-grade Spirit Stones; the Xia Family was indeed foolish enough.

“Boss, are we rich?”

“Old man, we’re rich!”

Li Xiaobai stopped taking his bath and just waited for the Xia Family to come again to buy water.

He had already figured out their pattern; the magnitude of the Xia Family First-Rate’s operation was too great, a single pool of water couldn’t meet their demand, and they would definitely send different people to buy more, until they had filled up the Xia Family First-Rate.

As expected, a few minutes later, several more people entered the shop wanting to buy water.

Li Xiaobai welcomed them wholeheartedly, and after some bargaining, the transaction was settled at the price of 150 middle-grade Spirit Stones.

Throughout the entire afternoon and evening, Tangneng First-class saw dozens of groups of visitors, all coming to buy water, for a total income of over 3,000 middle-grade Spirit Stones.

Situ Yanyu collected Spirit Stones until her fingers trembled; such a large sum of money was beyond her wildest dreams.

This was more profitable than running a bathhouse!

“Basic operations, not worth showing off, how about a remuneration of 100 middle-grade Spirit Stones each for you and your granddaughter.”

…

Meanwhile,

Within Xia Family First-Rate, Xia Jiuquan was leisurely sitting on a Taishi Chair sipping tea.

His good-for-nothing son had finally done something reliable, securing water from Tangneng First-class for his own usage, enough to appease the present wave of customers. This water could hold them over for a few days, giving the Xia Family enough time to crack its secrets.

In a couple of days, once the half-price promotion ended and they doubled the price, Xia Family First-Rate would definitely become a Money Tree with riches pouring in every day.

Xia Jiuquan was indulging in his pleasant dreams when suddenly, a knocking sound came from outside the door.

“It’s terrible, Family Head, the water that Tangneng First-class sold to us is just ordinary river water, it can’t help with cultivation at all, and the guests are making a huge uproar!”

“What are you saying!”

At that moment,

The bathhouse was already filled with curses.

The steward had sworn up and down that this water was exactly the same as Tangneng First-class’s and that it could help with cultivation.

But after a long wait, there was absolutely no effect, and to make matters worse, the middle-grade cultivators could sniff out a sour stench of feet from the water.

This was unacceptable.

“Damn it, the Xia Family is too shameless, trying to fob us off with foot-washing water!”

“This water is clearly the bathwater you’ve used, it’s an insult to us cultivators!”

“Even if you refund the Spirit Stones today, we won’t let it go without an explanation, we must have an explanation!”

“Indeed, we need an explanation; does the Xia Family think they can bully people just because they are a big clan?”

“Brothers, it’s settled then, this is definitely a shady establishment, let’s smash it up!”

“I am the son of the Li Family, Li Ya, I’ll take responsibility for any trouble, smash it for me!”

“I am the young miss of the Sun Family, Sun Xiya, smash this shady establishment for me!”

“I am the Young Master Wang…”

Inside Xia Family First-Rate there was chaos everywhere, with the offspring from several prominent families leading the charge in causing trouble and inciting other cultivators to tear apart this deceitful establishment.

They all came from prominent families, and had never been humiliated like this, even if it was the Xia Family, they wouldn’t let it go peacefully today!
