Star Train: Go crazy, all of you go crazy!

"In a little while, you'd better watch my expression and do what I say!"

Hearing this on March 7th.

"You mean... Oh~ I get it~ Hehe~"

Inside the arena, Hu Tao and Gongzi used all their skills, fighting fiercely and evenly matched.

In the end, the two faced off one last time, and this time, the match ended in a draw.

The young master also withdrew from the Demon King Armor form.

Seeing this, Xing, Kiana, and the others quickly gathered around.

The young master sat on the ground, panting heavily.

"Whew! That was great! It's been so long since I've had such a satisfying fight! Thank you, Master Hu!"

Hu Tao waved his hand.

"It's alright, don't be polite. I've learned a lot from this martial arts competition with you."

What do we say now? Shall we find a place to rest?

Upon hearing this, Xing's eyes darted around.

"Shall we go to a teahouse? I saw one that was quite popular and doing a good job; that one should be good."

It's the one next to that vegetarian restaurant.

Upon hearing this, Hu Tao thought for a moment.

"Is it that Star Shop? The one our guest often frequents?"

The young master also knew about Mingxingzhai; he and Zhongli had been there many times.

"Oh, oh, oh! The teahouse next to Mingxingzhai? I know it, Mr. Zhongli likes to go there for tea."

"Come on, everyone, let's go have some tea and take a break."

Afterwards, the group descended Tianheng Mountain and headed towards the teahouse next to Mingxingzhai.

Unbeknownst to them, a figure at the summit of Tianheng Mountain had witnessed the entire duel between Hu Tao and the young master.

The figure turned around, and a hem of a garment with dragon scale patterns fluttered in the wind.

............

Inside the teahouse next to Mingxingzhai.

The young master waved his hand and ordered the most expensive black tea in the shop, as well as a large amount of Liyue pastries.

After what just happened, Xing, Kiana, and the others have come to understand this young master.

This guy is so easy to understand; he's a complete martial arts fanatic with no guile whatsoever.

Even if there are, there aren't many.

Xing specifically chose a spot near the window of the Star Shop.

Under the table, Xing gently kicked March 7th with her foot.

On March 7th, understanding the meaning, he looked at the jade pendant placed on a separate display stand in the shop window.

"Xing, this jade pendant is so beautiful! Liyue's craftsmanship is truly amazing!"

Xing glanced at the jade pendant and said loudly.

"Stop looking. It's March. You won't be able to afford it even if you look. The more you look, the more upset you'll feel."

March 7th pouted.

"Can't we just take a look? Sigh~ I wonder who's so lucky to have bought this jade pendant."

"If only it were me... But forget it, it's impossible, we don't have the money. We can only look."

Upon hearing this, the young master habitually spoke up.

"So what? The bill is held by the Northern Bank!"

Miss March 7th, go! Go buy! Buy whatever you want!

Today is my lucky day, I'm going to meet a few girls!

By the way, Xing, I just heard from Miss March 7th that you're also a marksman? Are you free tomorrow? Let's have a spar.

Upon hearing this, Xing smiled and nodded in agreement.

"Sure, let's meet at the Rebirth Hall tomorrow, I'll practice with you~"

Upon hearing this, the young master was even happier!

His ideal life was simple: fighting every day, and his younger siblings living happily.

These two points are enough.

"Then it's settled!"

As he spoke, the young master summoned the teahouse waiter.

“Go to the Star Shop next door and call the owner over. Tell him that the young master of the Foolish Clan’s executive officer wants to buy a jade pendant from him.”

Upon hearing this, the servant scurried off to the neighboring restaurant to fetch the owner of Mingxingzhai.

If it were an ordinary guest, the waiter wouldn't be so enthusiastic.

This is a big client; the cost of just this one table is equivalent to that of a dozen or twenty tables.

Chapter 186, Hu Tao: Guest Elder!

Soon, a woman adorned with jewels walked over, led by a servant.

The woman was the owner of Mingxingzhai, and her name was Xingxi.

"Mr. Tadalia, we meet again. Why is Mr. Zhongli not here this time?"

Mr. Zhongli is her number one customer at Mingxingzhai, and he spends a lot of money every time he comes.

She loved it when Mr. Zhongli came; whenever he came, she could make a fortune.

The young master smiled.

Mr. Zhongli has something to attend to today.

"Oh, by the way, I bought that jade pendant in the shop window. The bill is still the same as before. You know what to do."

Xingxi smiled and nodded.

"I know, I know, send it to the Northern Bank."

Please wait a moment, I'll pack it up for you right away.

"I must say, Mr. D'Artagnan, you have excellent taste. This jade pendant is currently the best quality accessory in the store."

The young master smiled.

"Well, let's go."

Afterwards, Xingxi went back to the shop, packed up the jade pendant, put it in an exquisite wooden box, and sent it over.

Xingxi took out a bill and a pen and handed them to the young master. The young master didn't even glance at the contents before signing his name.

Xingxi offered a few more compliments before taking her leave and returning to her shop.

The young master handed the exquisite wooden box containing the jade pendant directly to March 7th.

"Oh, Miss March 7th."

March 7th was a pleasant surprise, but I was still a little embarrassed.

"This...isn't it a bit too extravagant?"

Upon hearing this, the young master immediately stuffed the wooden box into March 7's arms.

"Take it, it's not worth much!"

Xingyi immediately blinked frantically at March 7th.

"Just accept it in March. It's a gift from a young master; if you don't accept it, wouldn't you be looking down on him?"

The young master nodded in agreement.

"That's it."

Upon seeing this, he expressed his gratitude and accepted the jade pendant.

then.

The group chatted and drank tea. After finishing a pot of tea, a soldier from the Fools' Clan ran over and whispered a few words in the young master's ear.

After listening, the young master dismissed the foolish soldiers and spoke to Xing, March 7th, and the others.

"Everyone, I have some things to take care of, so I'll head back now."

"Xing, we made a date for tomorrow. Let me see your marksmanship."

Xing patted his chest.

"No problem, we'll meet at the Rebirth Hall tomorrow."

After receiving the reply, the young master turned and left the teahouse.

Only after the young master disappeared at the end of the street did March 7th, who couldn't wait any longer, open the wooden box and take out the jade pendant inside.

The jade pendant is precious, pink in color, with a warm and smooth texture and a very pleasant feel.

"Wow! This jade pendant looks even better up close! Kiana, look, it's glowing inside!"

Kiana looked and realized it was true.

"It really is!!! This jade pendant even glows inside, it's so beautiful!"

Hu Tao explained from the side.

"This jade pendant should be made of nephrite, amber and pearl."

The luminescent substance at the very center is a unique property of nephrite.

The pattern in the middle layer can only be found in amber.

The outermost layer, this pink one, must be made of pearls.

It uses very rare pink pearls, which are indeed produced in very small quantities.

Mei smiled and looked at Kurumi.

"Hu Tao, I didn't know you knew about jade! That's amazing!"

Hu Tao pouted.

"If you had a house full of antiques, you would have the same discerning eye as me."

"You have to have it whether you want it or not; I've seen it too many times."

Upon hearing this, Xing looked at Hu Tao with a mischievous grin.

"Hu Tao, I never expected you to like those antiques that only old people collect. Your mindset is way too mature!"

Hu Tao sighed and said.

"This master doesn't like these things. It's my guest who likes them and buys a lot of them every month."

Sometimes, when the head of the hall is present, he will even tell him about antiques.

Xing understood after hearing the explanation. So it was Zhongli. That made no surprise.

Although Zhongli looks young, he gives off the feeling of being a very mature person.

At this point, Hu Tao continued to complain.

"It is precisely because our guest retainer likes to buy antiques that this hall master is under such great financial pressure."

Sigh... It's so hard... It's so hard...

Kiana gave an awkward laugh.

"Haha, thank you for your hard work."
