Chapter 2203: Local Tycoon Wants to Provide Support (1)
Gege Lu was very confused. Lulu was still in his room. He hadn’t sold Lulu yet at all.
How could he have the money to buy these heaps of metal?
Was it from a member of the guild?
Gege Lu quickly denied this idea. The alchemists of their Alchemist Guild only had small coffers in their hands, but the total value of the metals in the dozen wagons was already beyond the reach of any of them.
Thinking again, Gege Lu could not really figure out who had bought the metal.
The Alchemist Guild was extremely puzzled by a pile of unknown metals. Meanwhile, Kaka Qi, who was greatly disappointed by letting a great opportunity slip, happened to return at this time.
“The king’s financial support has arrived already?” This was Kaka Qi’s first thought upon seeing the piles of metal.
Who didn’t know that the Puko’s Alchemist Guild was the poorest guild in the entire Storm Continent and that the president of their guild spent the rest of his time tightening his belt, except when it was the quarterly funding period?
With this much metal, Gege Lu couldn’t have bought it himself.
“No, I have just been informed today that the next batch of funding will be in place in a month. Furthermore, I think the dwarf who delivered the goods should be from the raw materials trading area, not our king’s team.” The pharmacist shook his head at once. The subsidies for the Pharmacist Guild and the Alchemist Guild were generally sent at the same time.
“No way. Gege Lu, that guy, was still trying to sell his treasure this morning. How did he get so rich so quickly? Is it possible that it has been sold already?” Kaka Qi grew very curious. Although the two guilds were just opposite each other, their relationship was really not very good.
Kaka Qi and Gege Lu were about the same age and they entered the position of the president almost at the same time. Since then, the two presidents had been disagreeable to each other. Nevermind not providing help in the hour of need, not throwing stones at the one who fell down a well was already very kind.
“I don’t know.”
Unable to find the mysterious pharmacist, Kaka Qi simply stood at the entrance of their guild to watch the show.
On the other side, Gege Lu was still struggling.
On one hand, the guild was in great need of the metals, but on the other hand, he did not know the origin of the metals at all, so he could not just take it away under such confusion.
Gege Lu’s stubbornness was reflected once again.
“I can’t take it. Please send it back.” Gege Lu clenched his teeth before he said this.
The delivery dwarf was immediately displeased.
“What are you talking about? We’ve already taken the money. You don’t want anything? Even if that is so, you can’t do anything about it, I can’t just push back the money to that dwarf either. Do you want me to have a reputation for cheating money?” For dwarves, making money was a small matter, but if their character were insulted, expect that they would fight like hell!
“That’s not what I meant…” Gege Lu felt helpless.
In the face of such a situation, neither side intended to put down its persistence.
Some unscrupulous thief who had been watching in the dark for a long time sighed helplessly.
Originally, she just wanted to be an unsung hero, but who told her to meet such a stubborn president.
“Sir, please accept these things. I bought them.” Shen Yanxiao, dressed in a cloak, slowly came out from one side and finally admitted the origin of the metals.
She was afraid that if she did not admit it, this Gege Lu would really be able to return all the metals!
“She bought it!” The delivery dwarf recognized Shen Yanxiao at a glance.
“Momo Xiao!” Gege Lu looked at Shen Yanxiao in surprise.
