Chapter 17: The Consumption of the Palace Can Also Convert into Krypton Gold Points
“This is the Princess, what can’t be said?” Qin Bei pretended to be angry as he spoke.
As soon as these words left his mouth, both Mu Zhaoxue and Ji Zhuyue felt a warmth in their hearts. Though their marriage was for the sake of benefit, Qin Bei still respected them greatly.
“Yes, yes, yes! You asked me to sell all the dowry brought by the Princess and exchange it for spirit stones, and I did that. You told me to give the servants more spirit stones, and I did that too!”
Now, the one feeling embarrassed was not the steward, but Qin Bei.
However, when the two women looked at Qin Bei, he was completely unembarrassed.
In Qin Bei’s view, isn’t the dowry just something to be used? Whether it’s for Mu Zhaoxue or himself, it serves the same purpose—what’s the problem?
“Do you understand what it means to distribute more? Over a thousand people, and you only spent ten thousand spirit stones? Is this what you call a lot?”
Qin Bei asked.
Steward: ???
“Your Highness, this is already quite a lot. The same servants in other Qin royal households have expenses barely reaching tens of thousands of spirit stones per year.”
“I don’t care what others spend. Starting today, the treatment of the servants in my Beiqin Prince’s Palace must be ten times that of other palaces. There’s no other reason—just because we’re rich. With these millions of spirit stones in dowries, they can’t just sit there as decoration.”
As soon as Qin Bei said this, it wasn’t just the steward who felt something was off; both women wondered if Qin Bei had a few screws loose.
While others feared running out of spirit stones and were stingy, here was Qin Bei, behaving so lavishly?
“Do it now!”
“Yes, yes, yes.”
The old steward appeared to comply obediently, but deep down, he was overjoyed.
Spirit stones represent cultivation resources, and he was also among the beneficiaries of this generosity.
“Do the two princesses have any objections?”
Once the steward had left, Qin Bei turned around to ask.
“No, Brother Bei is the head of the family, so of course, we follow your decisions,” Ji Zhuyue said.
“Good, you have the right mindset. Don’t worry, it’s just spirit stones. My husband will earn much more than this!”
“Yes, I believe in Brother Bei,” Mu Zhaoxue nodded in agreement.
What Qin Bei said was genuinely true. With his talent, as he cultivated further in the future, making spirit stones would just be a number game, right?
Moreover, Qin Bei’s generosity scored him major points in the hearts of both women.
If a person treated their servants well, would they mistreat their family?
The steward’s efficiency was remarkably fast. Before long, Qin Bei noticed his krypton gold points increasing and finally stopping at one hundred thousand.
“System, I want to know about the young master of the Beast Taming Sect and his current location.”
Soon enough, Qin Bei saw the information regarding the young master of the Beast Taming Sect.
Young Master of the Beast Taming Sect: Beast Ming.
Age: 26 years old.
Cultivation: Foundation Establishment Realm.
Controlled Monster Beasts: Fourth-level monster Silver Moon Wolf King, Third-level monster Marrow Devouring Gu.
Current location: Langya Auction House in the Capital.
Reading this information, a smile crept across Qin Bei’s face. He had been planning to spend spirit stones to earn krypton gold points, and the auction house was just the right place.
Unexpectedly, Beast Ming was also there—truly a case of enemies meeting on a narrow road. However, since the other party was in the capital, he couldn’t just directly deal with him.
After all, he was the young master of the Beast Taming Sect. Even though he was a prince, he couldn’t casually kill someone like that; otherwise, not only would it tarnish the royal family’s reputation, but it would also put other sects relying on the royal family in a state of crisis.
Such a “kill the chicken to get the eggs” act was something Qin Bei would never do.
“Princesses, are you going to the Langya Auction?” Although Qin Bei wanted to take the two women along, he still needed to ask for their opinions. Being too rash wasn’t a good thing.
“If Brother Bei wants us to go, we will go,” Ji Zhuyue replied.
She could sense Qin Bei’s intentions.
Having just secured two beauties, especially one being the saintess of Wu Nation, it was only natural for a man to want to show off a bit.
“I’ll follow Brother Bei too.” Though Mu Zhaoxue’s tone was still somewhat cool, addressing him as Brother Bei felt natural now.
“Okay, then we will go together.”
…
The backstage of Langya Auction House was Langya Pavilion, an absolutely neutral sect in the Cangzhou Continent. Just enough benefits, and you could buy anything you desired at the Langya Pavilion.
Today’s Langya Auction House was exceptionally lively, with the crowd clearly more upscale than usual.
Upon seeing the posted advertisements, Qin Bei realized today was the annual auction festival, featuring not just a larger number of items but also high-quality ones compared to usual.
Of course, this drew in more distinguished guests.
“So it turns out that festivals aren’t just a 21st-century privilege,” Qin Bei murmured quietly, leaving both women next to him confused about what he meant.
“Look at those two over there—they’re gorgeous!”
“Wow~ They really are! Those two beautiful sisters, and that big brother is super handsome!”
“Did this man save the entire world in his past life? How could he enjoy such blessings?”
“I bet he’s some young master from a powerful family, maybe even a prince of Great Xia.”
As Qin Bei stepped down from the carriage with the two women, he overheard the chatter around him.
His name had long been spread across the capital. From the time he lost his cultivation to when he killed Hun Tian in the Golden Palace and married the saintess of Wu Nation, both deeds had skyrocketed his fame.
Now, in the capital, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say Qin Bei was a household name.
However, not many knew of his appearance.
Qin Bei relished the envy from women and jealousy from men.
Though there was no tangible gain, his vanity was greatly satisfied.
“Come on, give me a kiss.”
In front of everyone, Qin Bei took Mu Zhaoxue’s small hand and kissed it.
And just like that, feeling it wasn’t enough, he took Ji Zhuyue’s hand and kissed it too.
At this point, the surrounding men went from envious to fuming, wishing they could run over and smack that smug look off Qin Bei’s face.
“My fantasy of a brother-sister pair just got shattered by that kiss!”
“This guy is infuriating. Remember his face—to target him later at the auction!”
“Yeah! You’re right. I may not have much, but I have plenty of money!”
Mu Zhaoxue and Ji Zhuyue exchanged glances, both able to see the helplessness in each other’s eyes.
Their husband was usually quite serious, so why did he occasionally commit such indecent acts?
And moreover, these surprise kisses left them feeling shy.
“Xiaobei.”
Just then, a delighted voice rang from the side.
Qin Bei turned to see Qin Zhen, the person who had been injured in the Golden Palace, but judging by his current condition, he must have recovered quite a bit.
“Brother!”
“Looking good, Xiaobei.”
Qin Zhen approached and draped an arm over Qin Bei’s shoulders.
Now everyone around could confirm Qin Bei’s identity as a prince of the Great Xia royal family.
Gone were the people who were just a moment ago planning to target him.
“Do excuse me, brother. I was just showing off some dog food, and didn’t expect you to be enjoying it too.”
Qin Zhen: ???
“Dog food?”
“Oh~ That’s a type of sour food.”
“You really are getting weirder and weirder…”
“By the way, here, this should be very useful to you.”
Qin Zhen suddenly pulled out a pill from his Qiankun bag and handed it to Qin Bei.
