She had most naturally been looked upon as the most unwelcomed kind of guest in that shop.
But Jun Wu Xie herself had not noticed that at all. With such kind of treatment, compared to having someone chattering non stop beside her ear, she would very much rather she be left alone to choose what she needed.
Afterall, upon the shelves in the shop, were already displayed albums filled with paintings of the manors up for sale and the shelves themselves already segregated the approximate sizes of the manors systematically, so it wasn’t too hard for her to pick from them.
Jun Wu Xie quickly disregarded the albums for those with only a single house and turned her attention directly onto the manors with larger pieces of land.
She had just stretched her hand out to pick up an album when before she had even touched it, the album was snatched up and taken away by an assistant in the shop.

Chapter 1422: “Not Short of Money (3)”
“Shoo shoo shoo, don’t come here to stir trouble when you’re not buying. Sheesh, they come in all kinds nowadays. This is not a place that beggars like you should be coming to. Hurry up and scram.” The assistant was in a hurry to bring the album to continue to fawn upon that Old Master Liu and when her sweeping glance caught sight of the unimpressive looking little youth dressed in dirty clothes, her face immediately turned ugly.
The little black cat lying upon Jun Wu Xie’s shoulder had upon hearing the little assistant’s words, almost pounced wanted to pounce onto her and bite through the puny little neck but fortunately Jun Wu Xie calmed its heckles right down.
Jun Wu Xie did not pay the assistant’s mocking tone any attention and merely chose from the other albums on the shelf.
The assistant was too eager to go earn herself some money and had no interest in dealing any further with the penniless little kid. She carried a few albums in her hands and brought them to go right before Old Master Liu.
Jun Wu Xie picked out a few more albums from those shelves and took all those that she needed and placed them all together upon an empty shelf. Some of the rich people within the shop started to sneer audibly in derision when they saw Jun Wu Xie’s actions.
“Another penniless wretch dreaming under this broad daylight? Trash like this should just obediently remain back within their pig sty. Look at the way he looks, would he have the money to even buy a tiny hut? I’m sure he wouldn’t even be able to afford the smallest house they have available for sale here.” Someone jeered venomously.
“I’ve seen too many of his kind. On the way here to the Clear Breeze City, they type of people I’ve seen the most are these penniless bloodsuckers. They only know how to stretch out their hands to beg, they are all no different from beggars.”
“From what I think, trash like this should stop putting up a struggle and just remain out there. Just allow themselves to be eaten by those monsters and it’ll save everybody a whole lot of trouble, instead of having them in here eating and drinking for free.”
In the eyes of the bunch of rich people who paid good money to come into the Clear Breeze City, they clearly bore hatred against the batches of frail elderly and weak children who had been able to come into the city just the same without needing to spend a single copper. The fact that these impoverished and useless refugees without any ability whatsoever had actually been able to gain entry into the Clear Breeze City without any payment riled them up to no end.
However, the rule was set by the Clear Breeze City’s City Lord and no matter how unsatisfied they were, they did not dare to really say anything against that, but would instead take it out upon the disadvantaged refugees suffering under the wretched conditions.
They could not understand what the Lord of the Clear Breeze City was thinking. Letting trash like these in would only increase the burden upon the Clear Breeze City and what kind of use would they be good for?
Towards the ridicule from the people there, Jun Wu Xie was seemingly unaffected. She continued to flip through a few more shelves and after consolidating one big pile of albums, she carried up those albums she had selected and walked towards the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper was busy tallying up how big a haul they would be able to make that day. All the houses and mansions were exorbitantly priced and having them entrusted to be put up for sale here, he was also able to charge a part of the price as commission.
As he was tallying up how much more money would be coming in, the shopkeeper suddenly heard a loud rustling. The sun’s rays in front of him was blocked out by a dark shadow when he raised his head up, seeing that his own table right before him had tens of albums in a big pile dropped with a thump upon it. From the exterior of the albums, he could see that they were albums of manors with very large land areas!
With that one glance he took, his heart filled with absolute delight and his face quickly split into an ingratiating smile, all prepared to face the prosperous tycoon with such a generous hand. But when he saw that the person standing in front of his table was just a tiny pint sized youth dressed in filthy clothes, the smile upon his face instantly faded away and turned a dark shade instead.

Chapter 1423: “Not Short of Money (4)”
The shopkeeper’s brows furrowed together as he stared at the expressionless and decrepit looking youth, his eyes filled with disdain.
He had seen many of these impoverished scoundrels before. There had been several other refugees who had wanted to buy land in the Clear Breeze City to live in some time ago and they did not have much money on them. They had then just knelt on their knees at his place to plead and beg without shame, refusing to budge, disturbing him from conducting his business in the shop and had even broken some things.
A businessman only had eyes for profit and the shopkeeper did not have the leisure to want to save those refugees.
“What are you doing?” The shopkeeper asked, his voice tinged with impatience.
Jun Wu Xie replied: “Buying land.”
The shopkeeper cast his glance over Jun Wu Xie and his eyes filled up with contempt. He did not say anything to Jun Wu Xie but turned his head towards two assistants who were standing idle at the side to say: “You two dumb buffoons, what are you still doing there dreaming? Aren’t you going to throw this idiot who doesn’t know what he’s talking about out already! ? Don’t let him hold me back from doing business here!”
The two assistants immediately rolled up their sleeves as they walked towards Jun Wu Xie, looking like they were really going to throw Jun Wu Xie out of the place.
Jun Wu Xie’s brows creased together slightly as she stared at the shopkeeper’s disdainful expression before sweeping her gaze over the two approaching assistants.
“What? You do not want to sell them?” Jun Wu Xie asked with a sneer.
The shopkeeper then burst out laughing as he swung his highly mocking glare up and down over Jun Wu Xie.
“Our doors are open for business and we would naturally not refuse to sell. But we still have to look at what kind of people we are selling to as we only sell to people who can afford to pay. Little scoundrels like you should just get out of here and not remain here to be scorned.”
Jun Wu Xie narrowed her eyes slightly and they filled up with a chill.
At that same moment, that prosperous tycoon Old Master Liu had also selected his new manor and under the assistant’s urging, he came walking over to stand before the shopkeeper.
The moment the shopkeeper saw the bling upon Old Master Liu, he immediately knew that that was a big deal coming in and he quickly eased his straight browed frown and chilly eyes, his face a mask of delight as he rubbed his hands in glee before Old Master Liu.
“Has the Old Master picked out his piece of land?” The speed of his change in attitude was truly astounding.
Old Master Liu nodded his head arrogantly, his pudgy arms happily slung around the assistants on each side of him as he said: “It’s alright I guess, being just barely big enough. It will have
to do for now.”
“Yes yes yes, seeing that Old Master Liu is a dragon among men, ordinary manors would not be worth of you. You’ll have to put up with this one for the time being and when I come across a good piece of land in future, I will get someone to send the news over to you.” The shopkeeper said with a wide smile.
Old Master Liu nodded in satisfaction.
Meanwhile, the completely disregarded Jun Wu Xie at the side had a chilly expression on her face. The two assistants had already reached her sides and they reached the hands out wanting to throw her outside.
Jun Wu Xie’s eyes flashed with a chilling glint.
In an instant, two howls of anguish rang out within the shop!
“ARRGGGH!”
Those howls that sounded just like the squealing of pigs immediately attracted the attention of others within the shop. Even the shopkeeper who was busy entertaining the “expensive” customer was shocked by the sound and he immediately turned his head over to see.
But that one look completely caused his heart to jump!
He saw the two assistants fallen onto the floor and grabbing at their elbows tightly, rolling across the floor in pain. The garish white of bones could be seen protruding out pierced through their arms, a large pool of blood flowing across the floor, the thick stench of blood immediately filling up the entire shop!
Jun Wu Xie still stood chillingly in her original spot, her glacier eyes piercing into one’s soul as she stared at the pale faced shopkeeper.
“You! What do you think you are doing!” The shopkeeper said as his heart thumped loudly.
Volume 15
Chapter 1424: “Not Short of Money (5)”
The shopkeeper stared at the shop assistants fallen to ground and his back broke out in cold sweat. He had not thought that the seemingly frail and weak little youth would possess such amazing skills!
But although he was still feeling the shock in his heart, the shopkeeper had not been fully intimidated.
“Kid, let me tell you this! This is the Clear Breeze City here! I do not care how you managed to sneak into the city, but when you’re here in the Clear Breeze City, you will have to adhere to the Clear Breeze City’s rules! This is not a place you can run wild with your unruly behaviour! The magistrate’s office is right next to us and I will just have to give a shout! You will then find your damned self being thrown out of here!” The shopkeeper said through gritted teeth as he glared at Jun Wu Xie, thinking he really had never met such an unruly refugee who dared to stir up such a ruckus in his shop!
Old Master Liu was also shocked by the scene before his eyes but it was different from what the shopkeeper was feeling. He was instead finding Jun Wu Xie rather interesting. “I see that this Little Brother here has some great skills. Why don’t you come with me instead? You can just become my personal attendant for now on and ensure my safety. You will then not have to worry about not having a place to live as I have just purchased a large manor and I will give you a room in there.”
Old Master Liu’s words were intended to sound charitable as from what he could see, unruly and fierce youths such as this were all financially embarrassed and they had no choice but to fight. As long as he gave them some benefits, they would immediately become tame like a dog to stay by his feet.
“No need.” Jun Wu Xie said, shooting a cold glance over at Old Master Liu.
Old Master Liu had not expected that Jun Wu Xie would reject him so cleanly and his face immediately showed slight displeasure.
“I’ll say this, you brat. You had better not reject the offered wine and end up being given wine in punishment. This is not a place that you can afford to do as you please. The shopkeeper will just have to holler once and you will then be in trouble.”
Jun Wu Xie stared at the disgustingly obese pig before her eyes with a cold glare and then turned to look at the shopkeeper standing there looking highly infuriated where she then pulled out two gold bars that were each the width of two fingers and threw them upon the bodies of the two men still howling upon the ground.
“Enough?” The two dense thunks sounded accompanied by the two syllables that Jun Wu Xie spat out coldly crashed upon the bodies of the two assistants.
Where would the two assistants have ever seen such a big gold bar and they immediately became flabbergasted with their eyes staring widely, the pain seemingly having disappeared without a trace in an instant.
“Enough! It’s enough!” The two assistants very quickly used their uninjured hand to clutch the gold bar tightly against their chest and nodded their heads vigorously.
“You two had voluntarily asked to be beaten up here. Is that understood?” Jun Wu Xie said coldly, not even bothering to look at them.
“We had volunteered ourselves! We had volunteered ourselves!” The two assistants immediately chorused together.
And that scene, had everyone within the shop watching them stunned into silence.
Who would have thought that such a decrepit looking young youth would throw out two solid gold bars so carelessly! ?
The other shop assistants who had been secretly laughing at the unfortunate pair who had their blood spilled were at that moment suddenly wishing they could take their places to suffer a beating from Jun Wu Xie!
That was just too damned generous!
Those were solid gold bars for Heaven’s sake!
The shopkeeper was also stunned speechless, his eyes wide with amazement, his finger that was pointed at Jun Wu Xie completely frozen in midair, the expression of rage on his face twisted up by utter shock.
‘Thunk thunk thunk!’
Without even another word, Jun Wu Xie nonchalantly pulled out gold bars one by one, tossing them one after another onto the table before the shopkeeper. The brilliant glitter of gold shone brilliantly from the gradually growing pile of gold bars, driving everyone watching deeper into speechless amazement. The wasn’t a single other sound within the entire shop. The shopkeeper who had just moments before been shouting for Jun Wu Xie to be sent to the magistrate’s office was now too scared to even break wind!

Chapter 1425: “Not Short of Money (6)”
Having initially thought with the loads of money he had, Old Master Liu had thought to hire Jun Wu Xie to risk her life for him and at that moment, his eyes were almost popping out of his head. Even with his abundance of prosperity, he wasn’t able to be as freely generous as Jun Wu Xie was doing. Seeing that terrifying amount of gold bars being tossed onto the table so nonchalantly as it piled up on the table, it suddenly made Old Master Liu feel like slapping himself on his mouth as his face bloated up to turn to the colour of pig’s liver.
However, Jun Wu Xie showed no signs of stopping, as all the pairs of eyes saw the pile of gold upon the table growing more and more, to the extent that they were falling off from the table. The heavy clatter drummed upon the hearts of everyone in the shop, completely blowing their minds.
The shopkeeper finally snapped back to his senses and he hurriedly raised up his hand to stop Jun Wu Xie!
“Our Little Lord! My eyes have been blind for not being able to see Mount Tai. I hope that our Lord would not hold it against such trash like me. What….. Whatever you want to buy, you just need to say the word and little me will immediately get it all ready for you!”
The shopkeeper at that moment felt like he wanted to cry. How was he supposed to know that the decrepit looking youth before his eyes would turn out to be the true nouveau riche! And he was so brutally rich at that! Watching Jun Wu Xie throw out gold bars like she was throwing out fried dough sticks had caused the shopkeeper’s heart to tremble and shake and if she was allowed to continue on, he would soon be buried under by gold bars.
Having mistaken such a insanely rich tycoon as a beggar, the regret the shopkeeper f
elt in his heart made him feel like gouging his own useless eyes out.
Deeply afraid that he had angered and driven away the big spender Jun Wu Xie, the shopkeeper quickly signaled with his eyes to the assistants in the shop who were still standing at the side too stunned for words.
The several stunned assistants immediately surged forward, crowding around Jun Wu Xie with adulating faces as they said.
“Does our Lord intend to buy a manor? What kind of a manor would you like?”
Oh Lord, how tiring it must be for you to be standing. You should sit down and make yourself comfortable.” “My Lord! Please have some tea!”
All the assistants acted like they could almost worship Jun Wu Xie like they did for their ancestors, eagerly bringing tea and fetching water, as if afraid that others would do it before them.
Those people were rushing forward so eagerly that they were squeezing the flabbergasted Old Master Liu and the two little pretty ladies out.
Old Master Liu who had just moments before been fawned all over by everyone was at that moment completely speechless, unable to give voice to the bitterness he felt. The two delicate little beauties were pushed to move their feet by all the others and they whined coquettishly to say: “Old Master, look at all of them.”
“What’s there to look at! ? Do you think I have not been humiliated enough? I’m getting out of here and will not remain here to disgrace myself.” Old Master Liu blubbered, his face red as beet. When he thought back to what he had said to Jun Wu Xie earlier, he began to feel a stinging burn come upon his face. He swept his glance over in reckoning and realized that the amount of gold bars that Jun Wu Xie had tossed out earlier was already more than his entire fortune. How could he still have the cheek to continue to remain there?
