After hearing these words, Tian Jihong frowned inadvertently. Although the other party tried to persuade him to stay and promised a lot of benefits, but if you think about it carefully, you can see that Manager He also made some insinuations to delay his stay. Tianjihong was not worried about them finding out the truth of the matter. After all, what he said was his own personal experience to a certain extent, but he did not dare to guarantee whether Wang Qing would reveal his identity.
Besides, even if everything goes well, considering the distance between Dongsheng Town and Dongyun Mountain, it will probably take at least a day or two to find out what happened at that time in a short time. I don't want to be put under house arrest by the other party here for no reason. . So when Manager Na He rang the bell again to summon a young man to come and entertain him, Tian Jihong had already begun to plan his escape.
After Manager He whispered a few instructions in the new deacon's ear, he leaned slightly again to apologize to himself, and then hurriedly disappeared out of the door. The young man on the side who looked to be in his twenties quickly stepped forward and said, "Hello, Ouyang Kui, you can just call me Deacon Ouyang. Manager He just explained the matter of the young hero to me. Listen. You said that you have a lot of soul beast materials on hand and want to come to our Wanjin Chamber of Commerce to trade, so you appointed me to explain the relevant matters to you. Haven’t you asked the young hero for his name yet?”
"Um, my surname is Lin, please take care of me, Deacon Ouyang." Tian Jihong was just stunned at this moment, still thinking about how to escape smoothly. During this trip, he had already learned that Tong Bo had indeed not returned to Dongsheng Town as Wang Qing said. It was an act of kindness for him to bring the news of the latter's death to Dongsheng Town. Now, just as Manager He was leaving alone, as long as he got rid of the young man in front of him, everything would be fine. "Ouyang... I just heard Manager He mention that there is an elder Ouyang in your chamber of commerce. I wonder if he has something to do with you."
"Haha, senior Ouyang Qingyan is indeed a distant cousin in my family. In fact, my Ouyang family is one of the main participants in the Wanjin Chamber of Commerce. The chamber of commerce has arranged for many young people from the family like me to experience in various places. ." At this point, the pride on Ouyang Kui's face was undisguised. It was obvious that he regarded his identity as quite important.
"Young hero, please follow me to the lobby on the first floor. I'm sorry that our Wanjin Chamber of Commerce does not have an exclusive trading venue for non-chamber members in Dongsheng Town. However, with the relationship between Lin Shaoxia and our chamber of commerce, Manager He has already explained Let me directly purchase all the supplies at the highest price currently on the market, and we can just go to the first floor to take inventory."
Tianjihong, who returned to the main hall on the first floor, did not pay attention to Ouyang Kui's eloquent explanation of the Chamber of Commerce along the way, mainly because he understood that the reason why the latter communicated with him so enthusiastically was to delay his stay. longer. Therefore, on the surface Tianjihong pretended to be curious, but in fact he was distracted and observing the escape route. Now the two of them are not too far from the main entrance of the Chamber of Commerce, but the other party's cultivation as a deacon is obviously much higher than his own. If he rushes out like this, he will inevitably not be caught by the former, and he has to think of a perfect way. OK.
"...So the trade centers of our Wanjin Chamber of Commerce are more concentrated in the Zirijiang area. The existence of our stronghold in Dongsheng Town is nothing more than a transit station connecting the Black Dragon boundary in the south and the [Death Desert] beyond. Therefore, There are no particularly powerful masters deployed." Ouyang Kui didn't seem to notice anything strange about Tianjihong, and still introduced various matters of the Chamber of Commerce with great interest. "Okay, we're here. Please come with me to the back of the hall to talk. I wonder what the young hero needs to do this time?"
Tianjihong did not exchange more greetings with him, so he took out the storage sachet and displayed the magic cores of various soul beasts that had been packaged in the spacious back hall. Except for a few of these he killed during the battle in the forest, the rest were mostly trophies he picked up when he returned to the battlefield when searching for the whereabouts of Wang Qing and Tong Bo after the war. Fortunately, after Gui Qianying disappeared inexplicably, all the spiritual beasts he controlled were scattered, and there was no time to stop and eat the corpses everywhere. This gave Tianjihong a chance to pick up the pieces.
"Good guy, with so many low-level magic cores, could it be that the young hero experienced a spirit beast riot in the mountains?" In fact, since Tianjihong did not have suitable storage items in his hands at the time, he had to use the magic cores or whatever he had. He knew that the more valuable soul beast organs would be removed. If conditions allowed, Tianjihong would be tempted to move all the soul beast corpses in the mountains back and sell them.
Ouyang Kui carefully counted the materials everywhere, and the look of surprise in his eyes became more and more obvious. Among the colorful magic cores of different sizes in front of him, there were even a few left behind by powerful beings close to the bone forging realm after their death. Needless to say, these were all picked up by Tianjihong when he returned to the original teleportation platform. They must have been ferocious beasts that died at the hands of Tong Bo, Fairy Qingluo Sect and others.
In fact, just based on their cultivation level, for some experts, killing a bone-forging realm soul beast is not particularly difficult. But what really surprises Ouyang Kui is that bone-forging realm soul beasts generally have extremely high intelligence, and usually choose to avoid danger when they find beings that they cannot resist. The situation in is even rarer. From Ouyang Kui's perspective, if he wanted to kill such a number of low-level spirit beasts in a violent herd, and also deal with several bone-forging level spirit beasts, the cultivation level of the person taking action would be quite terrifying. .
Of course, he certainly didn't expect that the whole thing was far beyond his expectations. He also didn't know that many of these magic cores were probably made by his own caravan. Most of them mistakenly thought that this was the work of the master or master behind Tianjihong. gained. After counting and estimating the value, Tianjihong was also quite shocked when he heard the number given by the other party: a full 50 gold coins! This huge amount of money even caught up with the funds left to him by his parents, giving Tianjihong instant confidence.
The reason why the obtained magic core can be offered at such a high price is indeed under the care of Manager He, but more importantly, as just mentioned, the magic core at the bone forging level circulating on the market is already quite high. It is extremely rare, and generally only those with cultivation levels close to the elders of the various forces can take down spirit beasts with bone-forging cultivation who know how to avoid risks. In fact, more than half of these dozens of gold coins come from these soul cores.
"I really didn't expect that just a few dozen magic cores could be sold for such a huge sum of money. It seems that the training fees for the following period have been settled. Just two days later, there will be the much-anticipated Tianbao Pavilion auction, with such a With a sum of funds in hand, maybe I can get a lot of benefits from such a grand event." Tianjihong thought to himself.
"Okay, this is your money for Young Master Lin. Please count it to see if the amount is correct. But please wait a moment, Young Master. For such a large transaction, I need to inform you according to the process." General Manager, we will also verify the authenticity of this batch of goods." After about half an hour of counting and warehousing, Tianjihong finally got the huge sum of money he had dreamed of. It's just that at this time, Deacon Ouyang is still looking for some unfounded excuses to retain himself. Fortunately, now that he has secured the money, he has already thought of a feasible way to escape the golden cicada.
"Thank you for taking such good care of me. Master, I will definitely be happy to know that I received so much money today." Tian Jihong pretended to be interested and replied, "Of course your chamber of commerce can count and appraise my goods. I understand, but I also need to know that you are not setting prices randomly."
"Well, I just happened to take this time to go for a walk in the square. Anyway, Mr. He won't be back soon. My master told me that I still have some other things to buy. I will go to the square to buy some other things. , and by the way, estimate the value of the batch of magic cores just now. When Manager He appears, I will come back to say hello and say goodbye to her."
"This..." After hearing such words, Ouyang Kui couldn't find a suitable reason to refuse for the time being. Tianjihong didn't directly say that he wanted to leave by force because he didn't want to fall out with Wanjin Chamber of Commerce so easily, and he only proposed such a move near the area under the jurisdiction of the other party. If you hang around, the possibility of Deacon Ouyang's rejection will be greatly reduced. In this way, it will be much easier for him to find a way to escape, and he will not have a stalemate with the other party when he comes back after the limelight has passed.
"Young Xia, you are trying to make things difficult for me. Our Wanjin Chamber of Commerce has given you the most reasonable price with a credit guarantee. As for other things to be purchased, our Wanjin Chamber of Commerce can also get them. I don't know. What else does the young hero need?" Ouyang Kui continued to persuade him unwillingly.
"Haha, brother Ouyang, there is no need to be embarrassed. I have already said that I won't go too far. I won't leave like this before I say goodbye to Mr. He." Tianjihong promised, "As for the things to be purchased, With all due respect, I do not mean to disparage your Chamber of Commerce, but everyone knows that in Dongsheng Town, your Chamber of Commerce started by selling soul beast materials, and it does have a good reputation in this aspect. But in other aspects , I’m sorry, but I still want to shop around and see what other stores have to offer.”
"Okay then, but please keep your promise and not run too far away, Young Master Lin, and wait until Manager He comes back before making a decision. Don't make it difficult for us servants." Deacon Ouyang finally chose to compromise, but he quickly He walked aside and quietly arranged for two guards at the door to keep an eye on Tianjihong's every move, and ordered him to stop him immediately if he wanted to leave the square area.
