Chapter 40: You Want to Buy Something?
"Shop?"
The Jade Emperor, who was about to drink tea, frowned when he heard this, and looked sharply at Xiao Ming.
"How did you get those mortal things?"
Xiao Ming didn't know what the Jade Emperor would do to himself if he said it himself, and said half-truthfully: "I don't know what's going on, every time I fall asleep, I will return to the mortal world uncontrollably, even I don't know." ”
The Jade Emperor's face was slightly gloomy.
"Do you know that Heavenly Court has heavenly rules, and you can't go down to earth at will. ”
Of course, Xiao Ming knew, and said helplessly: "But even I can't control it, not to mention that I'm just a mortal, unarmed, shouldn't I bring any trouble to Heavenly Court......?"
He smiled and said: "Jade Emperor, do you know that the mortal world has developed very quickly now, and the heavenly court has been left far behind in terms of clothing, food, housing and transportation, rather than letting those immortals find out and be attracted by those things that are not in the heavenly court, and go to the lower realm privately, it is better to help them send things over now, and there will be no difference between the heavenly court and the mortal world in the future, and of course no one will miss the mortal world anymore." ”
Hearing Xiao Ming's words, the Jade Emperor felt a little hesitant in his heart.
For so many years, although the rules of heaven clearly prohibit immortals from descending to earth, the more forbidden they are, the more immortals want to violate.
Although most of them can be chased back before going down to earth, this kind of thing has been repeatedly prohibited, and if it continues like this, it will one day cause the immortals to revolt.
The method that Xiao Ming said can indeed stop the selfish hearts of the immortals in a certain way.
The Jade Emperor thought for a while, frowned, and said, "Some time ago, I heard that they were selling something, and you took it from the mortal world?"
Xiao Ming nodded, glanced at the teacup that the Jade Emperor had been holding in his hand, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind.
"And now there are a lot of things in the mortal world, that is, there are hundreds of varieties of this tea, and each tea has a different taste, and the aftertaste is endless. If you want, I will buy some tea and promote it in Heavenly Court at that time. ”
When the Jade Emperor heard this, he looked at the teacup in his hand.
Speaking of which, my heart is a little sour, these tea leaves are a few seeds that he carried on his body when he was practicing and ascending in the mortal world, and they were planted in the heavenly court.
But the soil on the heavenly court is different from the ground, in the past tens of thousands of years, those tea trees have died so that only the last one remains, and every time he drinks tea, he is careful and cherishes it very much.
Hearing Xiao Ming say this, his heart was immediately moved.
What's more, Heavenly Court has been conservative for so long, if it keeps closing off the country, it is indeed not conducive to development.
Xiao Ming saw that he had begun to waver, and continued to say: "And I found that Heavenly Court has always maintained the tradition of tens of thousands of years ago, and there has been no change in clothing, food, housing, and transportation, if it continues like this, it may be a little dangerous." ”
"The development of the world is not only food, clothing, shelter and transportation, but also rapid progress in weapons and attacks. “
When the Jade Emperor heard this, he was even more surprised.
Although the Jade Emperor has a very high status in the heavenly court, when it comes to spells, many immortals are far above him.
"The weapon you just mentioned, but really?"
"Of course it's true. Xiao Ming nodded firmly.
The Jade Emperor thought for a while, and Xiao Ming continued: "When the time comes, I'll help you find one or two pieces and send them over, and you'll know." ”
"What about the other immortals?"
Xiao Ming, of course, shook his head. "That thing is extremely hard to come by in the mortal world, and it is rare to get one, and you can't buy it in large quantities. ”
When the Jade Emperor heard this, he nodded with satisfaction.
"That's fine, but remember that you can't violate the rules of heaven when you open such a shop, and you are not allowed to disturb the order of heaven. “
Xiao Ming saw that he actually agreed, and he was ecstatic.
"No problem, can you rent me the land around my room?
Xiao Ming did not say his previous plans, but put the initiative on the Jade Emperor.
The Jade Emperor thought about it, but it was the first time that such a thing as rent collection had happened in the Heavenly Court, and he didn't know what to exchange for for a while.
He is respected as the Jade Emperor in the Heavenly Court, everything is his, and there is no shortage of items when he thinks about it.
Hesitating, Xiao Qi's eyes lit up, remembering something, and then he took out his pocket, took out his only few pieces of chocolate and candy from it, held them in the palm of his hand, and handed them to the Jade Emperor.
"Uncle, the first is Xiao Qi's last treasure, Xiao Qi has been reluctant to eat, is it okay to give you rent?"
The Jade Emperor looked down at her hand, vaguely remembering that there were indeed a few immortals mentioning this thing during this time, but he shook his head and was not interested in it.
"Not really. ”
Asking him to be a Jade Emperor and collecting rent from his children will damage his reputation.
The Jade Emperor directly waved his hand.
"You just have to agree to the agreement just now, you can use the vacant land that no one wants, you can use it if you want, but if you want to rebuild the house, you still have to do it yourself. ”
Xiao Ming was shocked.
"Of course!" he nodded overjoyed.
Originally, I thought that I would lease those places from the Jade Emperor this time, and I would have to make a ruthless blood, but I didn't expect it to turn around!
The immortals in this heavenly court all have mansions, and they really have no interest in those places, and they are idle, but this is cheap, Xiao Ming, and he got such a large piece of land without taking a penny.
Xiao Ming thanked him again and again.
The Jade Emperor repeatedly reminded him to pay attention to the rules of heaven, and Xiao Ming agreed to come down.
The Jade Emperor's gaze fell on Xiao Qi's body and looked at it.
"This kid is living with you all this time?"
Xiao Ming touched Xiao Qi's hair, and his heart was calm.
"This is my child, of course I have to take care of it. ”
The Jade Emperor nodded with satisfaction when he heard this.
"Now that you know, you should take good care of him. ”
Xiao Ming nodded, a little puzzled in his heart, why did the Jade Emperor care so much about Xiao Qi's affairs?
Xiao Qi hugged Xiao Ming and said firmly: "Baba is the best for Xiao Qi, Xiao Qi likes to live with Baba Baba." ”
Xiao Ming smiled unconsciously.
"Xiao Qi is my daughter, if anyone dares to bully her, I will definitely make them pay the price. ”
The Jade Emperor nodded with satisfaction, and couldn't help but ask, "You just told me that there really is so much tea in the mortal world?"
There was a bit of surprise and confusion in his eyes.
Xiao Ming laughed in his heart, but he didn't expect to be waiting for him here.
"Of course. He spoke eloquently.
In the past, when he was doing research, he tried a lot of tea, and he talked about the color and taste of tea.
After waiting for a while, when Xiao Ming finally left, the Jade Emperor also told him to bring some tea next time.
Xiao Ming naturally agreed to it all.
The Heavenly General took them out of the Miluo Palace, and he became even more curious about Xiao Ming.
Seeing that he was leaving, he couldn't help but ask.
"Are you sure you want to open a shop in Heavenly Court to sell mortal things?"
Xiao Ming nodded and invited, "You two can come over when the time comes, and see if there is anything you like." ”
The two generals glanced at each other, a little hesitant in their hearts.
"And what good things do you have in your shop?"
