Following An Chen's instructions, Zhang Youcai quickly understood how to operate the device.
He adjusted the direction, gently pressed the forward button, and the electric wheelchair smoothly began to move.
Zhang Youcai was delighted.
“Not bad, you actually have some discernment, much better than her.”
“Does it pain you not to include me when you speak?”
Su Xiaojiu almost couldn't resist going up and hitting him.
“Mind your own business!”
Zhang Youcai happily drove the wheelchair around in circles, thoroughly enjoying himself.
“Anyway, even if you want to catch me, you can't. Where I go is my freedom, and you can't control it.”
“What a freedom!”
Su Xiaojiu sneered.
“Your master can constantly talk about freedom and happiness because he truly has the strength for it. What strength do you have to dare say such a thing?”
Zhang Youcai thought seriously for a moment.
“If I really run into a powerful Cultivator above the Soul Transformation Stage, then so be it. But standing before me is you, so why wouldn't I dare?”
He shrugged his shoulders indifferently, then burst into hearty laughter.
“You!”
Su Xiaojiu's teeth itched with anger.
Jubao Daoren possessed countless treasures, and there were certainly many for self-preservation and escape. As his disciple, whatever Jubao Daoren let slip through his fingers would be enough for Zhang Youcai.
At least it could ensure that no one of the same level could capture him.
“So… you followed me again today, found me, is there something else you need?”
Zhang Youcai raised an eyebrow and looked at Su Xiaojiu, asking meaningfully.
“Actually, I wanted to find you.”
Zhang Youcai looked at An Chen behind him in surprise, a playful smile on his face.
“You?”
He truly couldn't understand why this Mortal would actively seek him out.
What could a Mortal want with him?
“Interesting, in Kyushu, Mortals seeing Cultivator like us usually avoid us like the plague.”
“Is that really true?”
An Chen looked at Su Xiaojiu, who nodded.
“Mortals have a lower status on our side. Generally, those afraid of getting into trouble will avoid Cultivator.”
“Speak, what do you want with me?”
Zhang Youcai crossed his legs, making the wheelchair look like a throne, his expression arrogant as he looked at An Chen.
An Chen was silent for a moment.
This Zhang Youcai was so annoying.
Zhang Youcai's gaze was as if he was looking at a dog.
However, this also indirectly proved that in the Kyushu Continent, Mortals indeed had no status whatsoever before Cultivator.
An Chen tried to put himself in the social environment of the Kyushu Continent and found that it was actually reasonable, because in a place where social order was not fully established compared to Earth's civilized rule-of-law society, where only fists spoke, Mortals would not get any benefit at all.
No matter how strong a Mortal was, before a Cultivator, he was no different from other Mortals.
They were all ants that could be crushed with a single slap.
However, here, Zhang Youcai also had to lower his posture slightly, at least not daring to truly lord it over An Chen.
After all, he had witnessed how formidable the Mortals of this world could be.
“The business Su Xiaojiu discussed with you yesterday, I think we can talk about it again.”
Zhang Youcai folded his arms across his chest.
“Alright, one hundred and fifty Spirit Stones for one of your excavators.”
“You said two hundred yesterday!”
Su Xiaojiu interrupted.
“Yesterday was yesterday's price, today is today's price.”
Zhang Youcai even picked his nose, looking completely indifferent.
“If you don't want to sell, I don't care. I can find them and take them anyway.”
He wasn't lying about that.
As long as he spent some time and explored this South City thoroughly, he would always find a few construction sites. At that time, he could just guard the “monster spawner” and take quite a few.
An Chen providing him with an address was merely giving him information, saving him some time.
“Alright.”
An Chen readily agreed.
He actually didn't know what kind of purchasing power one hundred and fifty Spirit Stones had in the Kyushu Continent, but having something was better than nothing.
Besides, what he was doing was a business with infinite profit and no capital. He didn't have to pay any costs, nor did he have to take any risks. He only needed to give an address and take Zhang Youcai there.
Where in the world could such a good deal be found!
“Talking to you is straightforward.”
Zhang Youcai's gaze intentionally or unintentionally drifted towards Su Xiaojiu.
“Unlike some people, who are so wishy-washy when discussing business and even try to trick me.”
He stood up and extended his hand.
“Let's shake hands, and consider our deal done.”
Just as An Chen was about to extend his hand, Su Xiaojiu rushed forward and slapped his hand away.
“You don't understand Cultivator. It's best not to have too much physical contact with unfamiliar Cultivator. Leaving marks on others or even poisoning through contact are common tactics among Cultivator. You are a Mortal, with no ability to resist at all.”
She glared fiercely at Zhang Youcai again.
“I don't know what this guy is planning, but I advise you not to have too much physical contact with him!”
“Tsk, judging a Junzi by the heart of a villain!”
Zhang Youcai didn't care and withdrew his hand.
An Chen stared into his eyes and noticed something amiss.
Zhang Youcai showed a hint of guilt, and even though he managed his expression very well, so that Su Xiaojiu couldn't tell, it couldn't escape An Chen's Dharma Eye.
Su Xiaojiu was indeed right; this guy had ill intentions.
However…
Anyway, they were all the same kind of people, doing the same kind of thing.
An Chen glanced at the tracking chip pasted on the back of the wheelchair, then withdrew his gaze.
At least Zhang Youcai hadn't noticed his actions.
“It's alright, I believe this Mr. Zhang… has no ill will.”
An Chen gave Su Xiaojiu a look, blinked, indicating that he understood her meaning, and then said.
He stood behind Zhang Youcai, who didn't notice his movements at all.
“Tsk tsk, look, just look!”
Zhang Youcai burst into laughter.
Looking at Zhang Youcai's smug expression, Su Xiaojiu felt like laughing a little.
Zhang Youcai didn't know what An Chen had done, but she did.
Zhang Youcai just thought he was smart, but in others' eyes, he was just a big fool.
Compared to him, she was still smart!
“Then why don't we complete the transaction today? I can take you to a good place right now, where there are many such excavators.”
“Good! Excellent!”
Zhang Youcai immediately stood up, put the electric wheelchair into his qiankun bag, and stretched his muscles and bones.
“Let's go now!”
An Chen smiled and hailed a taxi, taking the two inside. He had them sit in the back seat, while he sat in the front passenger seat.
After reporting the destination, An Chen took out his phone, found Yuan Lihuan's number, drafted a text message, and sent it.
