TODAG System In TODAG 9 Chapter 9 : The Shopping District!!!

Demon spirit coins are the currency used in Glory City. The value of items in Glory City is measured with demon spirit coins. For example, battle armours, demon crystals, demon beast furs, elixirs and various other items.

The Holy Orchid Inst.i.tute's annual school fee would be around three thousand demon spirit coins. For a commoner family, this would be a huge expense for them. But a lot of commoner families would rather live frugally and send their children to the Holy Orchid Inst.i.tute.

A Bronze rank Fighter, if they join the army and become a soldier, would have an annual salary of about five to six thousand demon spirit coins. At the same time, they can also venture into the St. Ancestral Mountains and gain more benefits from it.

Nie Li belongs to the Heavenly Mark Family. It is a relatively declining Aristocratic family. The family's annual income is around six hundred thousand demon spirit coins. The family's annual expenses are very large. Just the school fees would be around three hundred thousand demon spirit coins. This, along with various other expenses, often made the family struggle to make ends meet.

The Patriarch once said that only an outstanding member of the younger generations could get the family to rise once again. Even if they had to live with a high toll, they would let every single young generation the largest nurturing they can give.

In his previous life, Nie Li didn't quite understand this sentence. He felt strange about the Patriarch, Nie Hai's actions. The Patriarch was very strict with them. After his rebirth, Nie Li could finally understand the Patriarch's care and thought.

As a member of the Heavenly Mark Family, he also wanted the family to grow stronger and become Glory City's top level.

After his second rebirth, Nie Li's had given them a lot of powerful cultivation techniques. But he didn't know if they had managed to rise up at the end as he had left the Tiny World...

Dong! Dong! Dong!

The bell went off throughout Glory City. The cla.s.s has ended.

The Holy Orchid Inst.i.tute's students rushed out of the huge gates and pa.s.sed through the bustling street in front. The merchants sounded off one after another.

Vendor : "Latest Bronze rank battle armours! With Snow Wind Patterns inscribed on them! n.o.ble ladies and gentlemen, are you interested?"

A vendor with a grey tunic greeted the crowd with so much enthusiasm. This had soon attracted the attention of many students. Bronze rank armour isn't something an ordinary student can afford. However, within the Holy Orchid Inst.i.tute, there's still a lot of children of n.o.bility. Some of them are extremely loaded, and they can sell to those rich students if they were lucky enough.

The students were excited and talked to one another. A pair of gauntlets were exuding a deep blue light. The surface was covered with mysterious carvings and revealed a faint chilling frost.

Student: "How much is this?"

Vendor : "Sixty thousand demon spirit coins!"

Student: "Good heavens, so expensive!"

An ordinary family couldn't even acc.u.mulate sixty thousand demon spirit coins in ten years.

Vendor : "This is Bronze rank armour with Snow Wind Patterns inscribed on it. The Snow Wind Pattern was drawn using the blood of a Snow Wind Banshee. The banshee was at its prime before being killed. The Snow Wind Banshee isn't easy to hunt. Their characteristics also made the gauntlets gain a strong attacking ability. This is definitely a suitable armour for Snow Wind type Fighters or Demon Spiritualists!"

Many students looked at the pair of gauntlets with nostalgia, but they still left. Such an expensive item isn't something they can afford.

Lu Piao : "If Bronze rank armour alone costs sixty thousand demon spirit coins, then wouldn't Silver rank armour and Gold rank armour be even more expensive?"

His monthly allowance was only about five hundred demon spirit coins. Lu Piao's family has a lot of business, so Lu Piao can be considered well off. But even if Lu Piao had some money, Bronze rank armour isn't something he can afford.

As Nie Li, Lu Piao, and Du Ze walked, they looked around. This street was filled with all kinds of items. No matter what item, be it expensive or cheap, can be found here.

Lu Piao : "Nie Li, what are you planning?"

As they were talking, a figure arrived in front of the vendor.

Lu Piao : "Look, it's Shen Yue!, And also Ye Ziyun!"

Nie Li looked towards that direction. He only saw Ye Ziyun and a few girls happily chatting. That pretty face and sweet smile of hers was full of suns.h.i.+ne. Among the group of girls, Ye Ziyun's smile was definitely the most dazzling, which made everyone look at her. Everything around here became more vibrant because of Ye Ziyun's existence.

Shen Yue also looked at her from time to time.

Shen Yue : "Very good, I'm lacking Bronze rank gauntlets. Wrap this Bronze rank gauntlet up for me,"

Vendor : "YES, YOUNG MASTER!"

The vendor immediately grinned upon hearing Shen Yue's words and quickly wrapped the gauntlet up.

Shen Yue : "Here are sixty thousand demon spirit coins."

Shen Yue took out six demon crystal cards. A single demon crystal card represents ten thousand demon spirit coins.

He made sixty thousand demon spirit coins look light. With an 'I don't give a s.h.i.+t' kind of expression he placed the bronze rank gauntlets into his interspatial ring.

Several girls around him let out light m.u.f.fled voices. However, Shen Yue treated them as though they were invisible. He proudly looked towards Nie Li's group of three. Then, he looked towards Ye Ziyun. His eyes clearly said, 'I only have eyes for you.'

Lu Piao : "How despicable!, This is a silver bullet attack!"

Du Ze : "Tyrant! Easily throwing out sixty thousand demon spirit coins, and even having an interspatial ring, Nie Li, people like him are handsome and rich. What can you compete against him with?"

Nie Li : "Hehe. Ziyun doesn't care about that amount of money,"

He swept his gaze towards Ye Ziyun. She completely ignored Shen Yue's action and was talking to the few girls beside her. Her eyes were occasionally looking at Xiao Ning'er, but Xiao Ning'er stood absent-mindedly to one side.

Xiao Ning'er's expression was cold. She's usually a lone wolf and doesn't have much contact with the other students.

Nie Li knows that what Ye Ziyun wants the most right now is friends.h.i.+p. And he had managed to somehow fix their friends.h.i.+p in his Second Life, but now he had to do it again... Ye Ziyun always wanted to be friends with Xiao Ning'er, but their ident.i.ties led them further apart instead.

Looking at Ye Ziyun's expression, Shen Yue was somewhat disappointed.

Lu Piao : "Fine, Ye Ziyun indeed doesn't care about money. Nie Li, she wouldn't like females, right? If so, your game's over,"

Nie Li laughed. He naturally won't put Lu Piao's words to heart. In his previous life, he was Ye Ziyun's, only man.

Nie Li : "Let's go, I'm starting my plan, Lu Piao, go buy two crossbows and five hundred crossbow bolts. A crossbow costs one hundred sixty demon spirit coins each and the bolts cost thirty demon spirit coins each, don't get cheated by hawkers"

Nie Li : "Oh and for the G.o.ds sake don't spend money on armours get only what we need... We'll meet up at the school's training ground."

Lu Piao: "Geh... Busted... fine, fine, Okay!"

Lu Piao nodded his head and feeling a bit curious in his heart. Did Nie Li buy crossbows and crossbow bolts in the past, since he knows the price of them?

Nie Li's monthly allowance is only fifty demon spirit coins, so he doesn't have enough to buy expensive things.

Nie Li : "Du Ze, we'll go buy Black Pool Gra.s.s."

After giving his orders of the material he needed, Nie Li tried to rack his brain on how to get richer much faster he pondered over it up till his brothers returned.
