With Bei Feng’s announcement, everyone present focused on him.
“This man indeed has great guts. To think that he still dares to do business with us after offending the Qing Zhou Chamber of Commerce.”
“No matter what, they still managed to come out alive. It proves their abilities.”
“True… but it might also be due to the absence of the other two ruling Thousand Year King realm Kings. The situation might have been different if they were present.”
“Since we can’t afford to offend Qing Zhou Chamber of Commerce, we will have to give this business deal a miss.”
People had varied opinions and were all busy discussing.
Bei Feng looked around him. Seeing that nobody dared to speak up, he lost interest and prepared to leave with his gang.
After all, he could always bring his stuff elsewhere. Even if he failed to sell it, he could just give it to his own people.
It could be of use to the Lu Family.
“Fellow Daoist, please don’t go yet.” A strong, deep voice could be heard. The crowd made way for a buff old man, whose head was full of white hair, and his followers.
Upon hearing that, Bei Feng felt his scalp go numb. He could only think of one person who would use that term “Fellow Daoist”.
That person was a legend, and those whom he had called “Fellow Daoist” were all killed…
With an expressionless face, Bei Feng watched them walk towards him.
“I am the section head of Dong Lin Chamber of Commerce, and you, my Fellow Daoist, have some resources at hand?” Lian Bei said with a smile.
“You’re right, please take a look,” Beifeng said as he took out a spatial ring and rubbed off his mental imprint before tossing it to the old man.
“Oh?” Lian Bei, who did not expect Bei Feng to be so direct, quickly grabbed it and began to explore it.
Inside the spatial ring were heaps of Demonic Beast materials, with the lowest grade coming from a Hundred Year realm Fourth Layer Demonic Beast.
But as section head of Dong Lin Chamber of Commerce, Lian Bei already had vast exposure to these things, so he could not help but feel a bit disappointed.
“Judging by Lian Bei’s expressions, the items inside the spatial ring must be worthless. Seems like Dong Lin Chamber of Commerce came here for nothing.”
“It is only expected that a bunch of Hundred Year realm cultivators would hold nothing too valuable.”
Those who were present were all good at observation, deciphering the look on Lian Bei’s face instantly.
“I have many of these spatial rings,” Bei Feng said as though he could read Lian Bei’s mind.
“Oh?” Lian Bei said with astonishment. He knew the items inside were not exactly worthless; his disappointment was only caused by his high expectations.
A single spatial ring might not appeal to him, but large amounts of it could be a good business deal.
“Fellow Daoist, this is no place to talk, let’s discuss at Dong Lin Chamber of Commerce,” Lian Bei said invitingly to Bei Feng after scanning his surroundings.
“Alright.” Beifeng nodded as he, too, did not want to be a spectacle for the rest.
When it came to the scale, Qing Zhou Chamber of Commerce could not hold a candle to Dong Lin Chamber of Commerce. Dong Lin Chamber of Commerce was known to be huge, and it could be seen in most Heaven Connecting Towers. It was also said that they had connections with a top-ranking clan.
“Fellow Daoist, you can now take out all your items.”
Inside one part of the Chamber, within a cubicle, water vapor from hot boiling teapots and burning jade-green incense sticks could be spotted.
“Lu Bu take out the spatial rings,” Bei Feng instructed.
“Understood!” Lu Bu nodded, and then took out from his bag a bunch of spatial rings—they numbered 80-odd!
Even the experienced Lian Bei couldn’t help but feel his heart skip a beat upon that sight. Fairly speaking, though no resource beat the Heaven Connecting Tower, it was still the first time they had seen so much before.
Even though the value of a single spatial ring is not high, the value of so many of them put together is surprising. If every ring contains the same items as what I’ve seen, doesn’t it mean that this transaction alone will be equivalent to a year’s worth of transactions? Lian Bei thought to himself as a smile appeared across his face.
“Okay, this is all we have. Please have a look!” Bei Feng said to Lian Bei.
“Go, call a few appraisers here,” Lian Bei ordered a waiting staff member.
While waiting for the appraisers, Lian Bei picked up a spatial ring and explored the space inside.
“Pu!”
“Ke, ke!”
Lian Bei’s eyes widened before spitting out his tea in shock.
“Fellow Daoist, don’t tell me you killed all the Demonic Beasts in the Hundred Break Mountain Range?” Lian Bei said with wit.
“Please don’t joke about it. It was thanks to a few ignorant cultivators that I had the chance to kill some Demonic Beasts alongside them,” Bei Feng said humbly as it was impossible for him to have achieved that via his own effort.
Lian Bei was confused. How many cultivators did he kill to obtain that many Hundred Year realm Fourth Layer Demonic Cores?
Lian Bei really wanted to question Bei Feng. F*ck, if killing a few cultivators could bring so much gains, even a Thousand Year King realm would very much want to do that.
Soon, the appraisers arrived in the large hall.
While talking, both Bei Feng and Lian Bei could not help but steal glances at the appraisal which started to take place.
Time slowly passed. It took the appraisers half a day to appraise all the items. A few appraisers even threw dirty looks at Bei Feng, blaming him for disrupting their rest. They did not expect it to take that long!
Despite being seasoned appraisers, they still had to take a few pills to boost mental power to finish appraising the items.
“Fellow Daoist, you have just emptied our wallet,” Lian Bei said jokingly. He had not expected the items to get better and better with every ring.
Instead of just Demonic Beast materials, spirit herbs, Demonic Cores, and other rare items were also present.
“All these items are worth 9.12 billion HCD.” Lian Bei clenched his teeth as he read out the numbers as Dong Lin Chamber of Commerce would usually spend only 10 billion HCD in a year.
This sum could easily fetch them 10 thousand pieces of high-grade spirit stones! Such a large cash inflow was enough to make any Thousand Year King jealous.
Lian Bei’s heart pounded hard as he felt tempted to kill these people for their money!
The purchasing power of HCD was still high as one million HCD could fetch a high-grade spirit stone anywhere.
Only a few top-grade items could not be bought using HCD.
Bei Feng, on the other hand, was not too excited, as his own spatial ring contained a mine that could produce over a million high-grade spirit stones.
A spirit stone mine was much more fascinating to see. During a transaction, one could just cut a piece off the walls of the mine.
“Deal is done, we shall take our leave,” Bei Feng politely said to Lian Bei upon receipt of the funds, turning to leave.
The real good stuff like Celestial Emperor Bamboo, Tianjun Liquid, Tianjun Bamboo, and Stalactite were not sold. If they were part of the transaction, the sum would have been much bigger!
“Section Head, should we…” a man wearing black training suit suggested to Lian Bei while making a strangling pose.
“If others heard what you just said, you’d be getting ready to be sent to Hadal Bastille.”
The man felt let down by Lian Bei’s cold response. “Sorry, Sir, I was too muddleheaded.”
The man was immediately intimidated at the mention of Hadal Bastille as though it contained demons that could terrify even a Thousand Year King realm expert.
“Get up now, remember our number one rule! If you repeat your mistake once more, you should just end your life to prevent any suffering.” Lian Bei lowered his tone at the end; then, the man left.
It was three thousand years ago when a client was murdered in Dong Lin Chamber of Commerce for his goods. The dead man was from a family so powerful that the Chamber got badly damaged within just a few months. Even the clan behind Dong Lin Chamber of Commerce was badly affected.
Even though the avenging family was eventually destroyed, it came at a price for the clan behind the Chamber as their clan head died fighting.
Since then, it formed the first rule of Dong Lin Chamber of Commerce. If anyone dared to violate this, their families would be executed, while the offender sent to the Hadal Bastille.
Bei Feng and the rest had to stay at a hotel as the battleship would only arrive in the next two days.
After notifying the other two behemoths behind the Qing Zhou Chamber of Commerce, Pan Yun Fei acted as though nothing had happened, which disappointed some nosey people who were waiting to watch the show.
