Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 946 - 944: That Is a Bit Pitiful~
The Ginsengfruit put away its previously agreeable demeanor and glanced at the old woman: "Can we still sign the contract now?"
The old woman knew she hadn’t misjudged; even at this moment, these people still wanted to sign the contract.
Ming Yue and her daughter finally had a way out.
"Yes, yes, my son already called people over. If these people hadn’t suddenly appeared, we would’ve signed it by now."
The old woman, being quite shrewd, realized these tenants weren’t ordinary and immediately became assertive herself.
The middle-aged man, now completely disheveled and despite his great dissatisfaction upon hearing the Ginsengfruit’s words, dared not speak up anymore.
"Alright, all irrelevant people, get out!"
The Dragon Spirit finally withdrew its pressure, and the middle-aged man instantly felt the heavy burden on him disappear.
He quickly got up, turned around, and ran off with his people as if another moment’s delay would cost him his life.
Once the contract was signed, the Ginsengfruit took out the pearls the Dragon Spirit had prepared earlier.
"Do you want the pearls or exchange them for money?"
Knowing this family was in a tough spot, the Ginsengfruit offered them a choice.
The person who came to sign the contract saw the pearls the Ginsengfruit brought out and was instantly transfixed, probably never having seen pearls of such quality before.
"We want the pearls!"
The Dragon Spirit had already walked away, but his ears perked up.
He wanted to know if these people were as ignorant as those before.
Fortunately, these people weren’t that ignorant, which greatly pleased the Dragon Spirit.
He thought, good things should never be buried.
After the contract was signed, the old woman left immediately, and the previously noisy courtyard became quiet.
The Little Papermen who had been hiding all flew out, diligently starting to clean the place.
Their host was injured, so they must clean everything thoroughly, not allowing a speck of dust to remain!
The Little Papermen were busily cleaning, and the Ginsengfruit took out the gold and silver treasures he had previously saved, preparing to exchange them for money in this world.
The industrial development of this world seemed not so advanced, perhaps there would be some good quality medicinal materials to be found.
"Host, I’ve cleaned up, I’ll go out first to take a look and buy some things back."
Yun Ran nodded, and the Ginsengfruit took out a small box and went out.
The Dragon Spirit looked at Yun Ran sitting under the tree and asked curiously: "What’s so interesting about this tree? You’ve looked at it several times.
You’ve seen plenty of spirit trees before, and none of them caught your eye as much."
The Dragon Spirit was genuinely puzzled, not knowing what was so fascinating about this spirit tree.
After all, he was naturally gifted himself~
"There are many spirit trees, but it’s the first time I’ve seen one pretending not to have awakened its spiritual wisdom after becoming a spirit, it’s rare."
The Dragon Spirit, hearing this explanation, conceded it was indeed a bit intriguing.
However, he wasn’t the type to guess endlessly when curious; it was better to just ask.
The Dragon Spirit strode forward, placing his hand with a smack on the tree trunk.
The tree shivered, feeling like it was truly doomed.
"Hey, you’ve become a spirit, why pretend not to have awakened spiritual wisdom?"
The tree continued to play dead, determined not to admit anything, even in death.
For a long time, not even the leaves trembled.
The Dragon Spirit felt somewhat embarrassed; he rarely used such a pleasant tone, especially with Yun Ran present.
If he were alone, he would have clawed at it by now, not caring about the tree’s thoughts.
"Hey, this is interesting, treating my words like hot air!"
"Perhaps it’s related to what the Little Paperman mentioned before; the Dark Masters here are exceptionally harsh on evil spirits and the like.
This spirit tree, if it revealed any special traits, would likely be upended by those Dark Masters in no time."
The Dragon Spirit recalled what the Little Paperman said earlier upon hearing Yun Ran’s words.
His brows furrowed, for in his understanding, even spirits like himself have the right to roam the Human World.
Just like him, because he’s strong enough, he enjoys some human rights even though he isn’t human.
Now, due to human ’greed,’ this tree, despite being a spirit, has to pretend otherwise—this is hard for the Dragon Spirit to accept.
"That’s kind of pitiful~"
Considering the situation, the Dragon Spirit took out a piece of talisman paper capable of concealing aura, inserting it directly into the tree trunk.
"It’s better now, no need to pretend, and won’t be noticed by others."
Yun Ran watched the entire process without intervening or rejecting, nor did she express much opinion, allowing the Dragon Spirit to act as he pleased.
Once the Dragon Spirit finished everything, he turned to look at Yun Ran.
"Don’t you have anything to say?"
"Do I need to say something?"
Yun Ran’s words left the Dragon Spirit speechless; he felt increasingly baffled by Yun Ran.
"Don’t you think I’m meddling?"
Yun Ran put down the book in her hand, her gaze indifferent, as if this didn’t concern her at all.
"You want to help and have the ability to do so; that’s your business. As long as you don’t trouble others, you can do as you please.
If you need my assistance, then you’d naturally consult my opinion.
Now, since you’ve done everything, asking me these questions serves no purpose."
Dragon Spirit: ...
He disliked Yun Ran sounding like an old God Stick, quite similar to that annoying old man!
If Yun Ran knew she was akin to an old God Stick in the Dragon Spirit’s mind.
She would definitely tell him her former nickname was Little God Stick.
Doing the job of a God Stick meant saying these vague words to make people trust more.
Speaking bluntly, you risk being seen as a fool, and no customers would come to you.
The Dragon Spirit eyed Yun Ran, growing curious, imagining her older, wrinkled, still speaking those mysterious words.
Wouldn’t she be seen as some remarkable sage?
"I think we need to integrate into this world swiftly; you should dress up and go out as a God Stick—that might be the fastest way."
The Dragon Spirit even thought about what to prepare for Yun Ran.
Dark Masters hold high status in this world, so adopting their identity is optimal for getting around; after all, he doesn’t fancy enduring hardships.
