Transmigrated as Investment Banker in Cultivation world

He was starting to get impatient, as in these three days not a single person in whom he had invested had died, so he was not able to extract their Crystallization of Life, leaving him increasingly frustrated.

"Damn! What the hell are you guys doing?" David muttered as he watched the bank\'s notification window, which was completely empty. He had a feeling that once he absorbed two or three Crystallizations of Life, he should be able to break through to the Golden Core Realm and catch up with his companions.

He was sitting on a chair placed beside the table while enjoying a warm cup of coffee. He could not help but slide downwards, so that he was curled up and lying in the chair in an extremely comfortable position, with his legs stretched fully and toes pointing outwards.

"Tch! These youths these days. When will they learn that you have to sacrifice a little to grow? Even heaven demands death." He took another sip and commented with an extremely contented look in his eyes.

Taking one more small sip, David looked at the sunlit street before him. Life could not get any better than this.

Money was coming in large quantities with increasing sales of cups of coffee. At this point, he was almost swimming in money.

If he didn\'t make any extravagant purchases, he would never run out of money, no matter what.

Suddenly, David sat up straight, his relaxed expression replaced by a serious one almost instantly.

A small group of three was moving toward his little stall with pensive expressions on their faces.

Two girls led the way, followed by a confident-looking blonde-haired young man.

At a glance, it was evident that all three of them were at the peak of the Foundation Building Realm.

The girl with a petite figure, dressed in baggy clothes, spoke in a hushed voice. "Leader, are you sure about this? It sounds too good to be true. Who pays that for a few corpses?"

"Little girl, are you doubting my words?" Hearing her words, the young man confidently spoke, his words filled with assurance. He had double-checked the rumors, and indeed, there was someone stupid enough to buy monster corpses at an inflated price.

In the past three days, David\'s little stall\'s notorious reputation had spread far and wide. Everyone in this triangular settlement knew about a retard buying monster corpses for a higher price.

Many had tried to cash in, and the three weren\'t any different.

David looked at the trio in front of him and spoke while raising his eyebrows, "How many?"

The young man smiled smugly. "Shopkeeper, don\'t worry. You\'ll be surprised. I\'m afraid this little table of yours won\'t be enough to hold all the goods we\'ve brought."

After saying those words, the blonde-haired man flicked his wrist, and tens of monsters appeared on top of the table, releasing a pungent smell that made them grimace.

The reaction of the trio wasn\'t any different from David\'s.

"Shopkeeper, hurry!" The two girls urged David from the side.

David rolled his eyes at their words, but he still did his job and did a rough calculation in his head.

Of course, he was just pretending. In reality, he asked the bank how much it would give him for the pile of trash lying on the table.

The bank\'s faithful answered.

[One million spirit stones]

[Accept/Reject]

"One million spirit stones, sweet." David nearly whistled in delight. The bank was really generous for giving one million for this pile of trash.

David shook his head inwardly, however, as he wasn\'t the one to care about such small things.

He leaned back in his chair and slowly said with a bored expression on his face, "700,000 spirit stones."

"What? 700,000 spirit stones?"

The petite girl\'s eyes went wide, her jaws almost hitting the ground in shock.

The other two were equally stunned, clearly not expecting David to offer such a large amount of money.

David almost laughed out loud after watching their reaction from the corner of his eyes.

"Is this how ultra-rich people feel?" he couldn\'t help but think like this in his heart.

"Well, do you want to sell or not?" David tilted his head, feigning indifference.

"Sell! Yes, of course." The three of them hurriedly nodded their heads like chickens pecking at rice.

"Good!"

After watching their reaction, David spoke in satisfaction and flicked his wrist.

Immediately, the pile of meat lying on the table in front of him disappeared out of thin air, as if it had never existed in the first place.

"Here, take this."

Next, he handed them a pouch filled with spirit stones.

Immediately after receiving the pouch, the three of them disappeared like the wind.

Their destination was the dangerous Blood Moon forest.

Although it was risky, they wanted to milk even more money when they had the chance.

David looked at the trio\'s receding figures and thought while grinning from ear to ear.

"Take more risks and die," he thought gleefully.

As their figures disappeared into the distance, David couldn\'t help but mutter to himself, quoting a line he had read long ago: "The road to hell feels like heaven, and the road to heaven feels like hell."

People, when faced with high enough stakes, would even gamble their lives for material gains.

This was also a reminder for David to not lose sight of his goal.

He had to walk forward while maintaining a clear balance between his wealth and power.

After all, the golden mean is the golden rule. He couldn\'t afford to ignore his personal cultivation for some mere spirit stones.

"Darling! Here you are, I finally managed to find you." A seductive and at the same time slightly playful voice sounded from the distance.

Hearing the voice, David almost shivered. Without even looking, he knew who this voice belonged to.

Sigh~

It was fun while it lasted. His peaceful life was about to be destroyed.

Contrary to his thoughts, a small smile appeared on his face automatically.
