Chapter 427: 427 eager to pay off debt
Ye Jiu couldn’t explain, but fortunately, Yuan Jun Taoist didn’t pursue the matter, and instead handed over a pill, “The old Taoist sees that your body isn’t in great shape, this Marrow Cleansing Pill can be considered your meal money, just find a secluded place and eat it directly.”
“Thank you, Yuan Jun Taoist.” Ye Jiu accepted the gift with overwhelming joy, the legendary Marrow Cleansing Pill, truly extraordinary when given by a deity.
“No need for thanks, just put a bit more effort into bringing some delicacies from the mortal realm for the old Taoist, I have no other hobbies but to enjoy food, it’s just a pity that since entering this Cultivation World, I’ve had nothing but Fasting Pills!” Yuan Jun Taoist said with a face full of regret and longing for gourmet food.
Ye Jiu readily agreed to this request.
Then, in order to please the old Taoist, Ye Jiu picked out a box of snacks from Luo Ranran’s stash and sent it over.
“These are all edible items, please accept them with a smile, Yuan Jun Taoist,” Ye Jiu said.
She had plenty of these things, but intuitively, she felt that she shouldn’t give too much at once. She had to keep him wanting more, otherwise what could she use to trade if the old Taoist had his fill!
Upon receiving them, Yuan Jun Taoist immediately opened a pack of potato chips and started munching, then praised, “Not bad, not bad, young friend understands the way.”
“It’s good if Yuan Jun Taoist likes them.” Fortunately, since Ye Jiu was young, even if her attempts to curry favor were obvious, it wasn’t off-putting; instead, it came across as somewhat endearing.
“After holding back for two hundred years, I now want to go out and see the outside world. If there’s a chance, let’s chat more.” Grateful for the food, Yuan Jun Taoist was very friendly.
Ye Jiu responded even more politely, “Okay, I’ll see you next time, Yuan Jun Taoist.”
Ye Jiu, feeling quite content, was about to head out when she suddenly received a message from Luo Ranran, “Sis, it’s a matter of urgency, lend me some money quickly.”
Ye Jiu: “…” This guy was really not shy about asking.
“What’s the matter? Why the urgency?” Ye Jiu asked.
“It’s those debts again. I repaid some after selling the raw stone you gave me a while back, but then another group of people found out, and now they’re blocking our doorstep demanding payment!” Luo Ranran reported in a dejected tone, “Sis, I’m really desperate, considering the supplies I got for you recently, just lend me some to get these people off my back, and I’ll be forever grateful to your ancestors.”
Ye Jiu: “Are you sure you’re not cursing me?”
Luo Ranran: “Wuwuwu…”
It was Ye Jiu’s first time seeing someone with the Golden Finger still having such a tough time, so she sympathized with her for three seconds.
Then, considering Luo Ranran’s urgent need for money, Ye Jiu transferred over the basin-sized gold lump she got from La Sike.
She had shaved off a little bit of this gold piece herself, now giving the entirety of it to Luo Ranran – she wouldn’t be this generous without truly caring.
Ahem, it was about seeing the potential!
After handling the situation, Ye Jiu thought about it, realizing that Luo Ranran’s debts were so vast that these might not be enough to save her life.
