Chapter 1119: Astonishing Betrothal Gifts
Actually, this tea was made by ngyu herself.
She moved a few ordinary tea trees into her space. After they absorbed the space’s spiritual energy and were watered with the Spiritual Spring by ngyu, they transford a bit. The leaves carried so spiritual energy, but they weren’t real Spiritual Tea.
Nevertheless, this tea was still better than ordinary tea, right? At least ngyu thought it was far better than that Da Hong Pao Tea.
In fact, spiritual energy on this land was gradually thinning, and true Spiritual Tea was becoming rare. ngyu didn’t know that her little bit of tea had already counted as Spiritual Tea in this era.
Gu Ming took a sip of tea, and with so hesitation, he said, "Our children are getting engaged tomorrow, and I’m wondering if our relatives have any requirents for the bride price?"
Nan Xiao glanced at Gu Dongxing and said, "I have a requirent. Can you fulfill it?"
Gu Ming faltered. His family wasn’t extrely wealthy, but the other party was a top Family. If they really had demands, could he et them?
However, Gu Dongxing very eagerly said, "If Father-in-law has a request, I will spare no effort to fulfill it."
Nan Xiao snorted, making things difficult on purpose: "The engagent hasn’t even happened yet. It’s too early to call Father-in-law. I want 999 top-grade spirit stones as bride price. Can you manage that?"
Nowadays, spiritual energy within Families was thinning, and it was difficult for spirit stones to form. 999 top-grade spirit stones — even a Cultivation Clan within an Immortal Sect might not be able to provide that amount.
He said this precisely to trouble Gu Dongxing.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he spoke, Gu Dongxing took a pouch from his waist and handed it over with both hands to Nan Xiao: "Please check, Father-in-law."
With a sweep of his Divine Sense, Nan Xiao’s eyes narrowed. Astonishingly, the pouch indeed contained 999 top-grade spirit stones.
He was shocked: "Did you find a spirit stone mine?"
Gu Dongxing quickly said, "No, it was just by chance that I ca across a cave left by a Cultivator. There were so spirit stones in his storage ring."
High-level Spiritual Stones are now extrely scarce, yet Gu Dongxing suddenly produced 999 of them!
Even if obtained from a Master Cultivator, one would be reluctant to give them away.
What Nan Xiao didn’t know was that Gu Dongxing was a Cultivator Emperor in his past life, who dominated vast resources, especially after plundering and seizing a sect’s resources. He stored these resources in the Imperial Palace Space he crafted, and in this life, he happened to retrieve them.
Therefore, while others might find 999 top-grade spirit stones a lot, to him, it was rely a drop in the bucket.
However, he understood the wisdom of keeping a low profile in wealth. When Father-in-law requested 999 top-grade spiritual stones as bride price, he offered precisely 999 top-grade spirit stones, not one extra.
Nan Xiao felt satisfied with Gu Dongxing’s generosity, seeing it as a sign of how much he valued his daughter, allowing him to trust him with her.
But he added, "There should still be a proper betrothal gift."
As he finished speaking, Gu Dongxing moved out a box. Upon opening it, it contained four types of gifts: six packs of cigarettes, six bottles of wine, six kinds of candy, and six types of pastries.
Additionally, there was a pair of mandarin ducks, naturally not live, but made of jade. The quality and the sheen suggested they were very valuable.
Before Nan Xiao could express dissatisfaction, Gu Dongxing brought out another box. Upon opening it, there were four items inside: six packs of dried sea cucumbers, six packs of dried bird’s nests, six packs of dried shark fins, and a six-pound slab of at.
Nan Xiao was sowhat surprised this ti.
