Chapter 303
When the announcements stopped, I brought out a team of [Zhan Long]’s people to look from the distance . Indeed, within a few minutes, a large crowd of people had already gathered in front of the small shop, National Beauty . Quite a few people were aiming for the Ottoman Leg Guards; after all, Emperor Tier equipment were currently considered super high class, especially heavy armors . The stats were exceptionally good, a definite winner among the top heavy armored players .
……
I set the settings such that 10% of National Beauty’s profits would be directly transferred to One Second Hero’s account . The most important thing to do as a person is to keep one’s promises; no matter how great that 10% was, I could not have any selfish thoughts . After all, he had given us coal in a blizzard when we needed it most .
TL: “gave us coal in the blizzard” is an idiom referring to how they had been given help when they most needed it .
“Someone has already made an offer for the Ottoman Leg Guards… . ” Matcha wryly smiled, “170k G… . ”
I nodded, “Just keep waiting, there’ll definitely be someone who’ll give a higher offer . Nowadays, Emperor Tier equipment are high in demand……”
“190k G…… . ”
“211k G… . . ”
The price kept rising and suddenly, Matcha’s small mouth widened and she gasped, “Boss… this… this suddenly became 500k! This is way too ridiculous . I don’t know who bought it, but I don’t think there’ll be a higher offer… . ”
The other players couldn’t figure out who had offered this price, but since I had the power of a shop owner, I was allowed to see behind the scenes of the auction . I scanned the information; the 500k G was no one but Wang Ze Cheng . That bastard was actually planning on becoming an RMB player to the end!
“If this keeps up, Cang Cheng will probably have an entire suit of Emperor Tier equipment… . . ” One Second Hero said as he coldly laughed .
I gripped Emperor Qin’s Sword and smiled, “No matter, even if he has an entire suit of Emperor Tier equipment, the end result will still be the same . We can cut him down anytime we want without needing to greet him… . . ”
“Alright… . Guild Master, you’re very formidable… . ”
……
We continued to watch National Beauty’s operation; the Lv 10 red potions were especially popular, and almost every one sold out the second it was made . Given their ability to immediately recover 3000 health, they were too domineering, and especially necessary for Main Tanks to use when fighting BOSSes . The potion was practically equivalent to a high level Healer using a Lv 7 [Heal] 2 times; it was a life saving medicine!
Standing at the marketplace in Ba Huang City’s North Gate, I relished the feeling of money flowing in from National Beauty . One Second Hero also wore a big smile and said, “Looks like my investment will be returned within three months, and that’s a conservative estimate . This National Beauty will bring in at least 20M in profits . Congratulations, Guild Master! You’ve hit the jackpot!”
I smiled and said, “Don’t congratulate me!”
“Why not?” He asked, puzzled .
I contemplated for a moment and said, “I will be transparent about all of National Beauty’s finances . The [God of Commerce Badge] didn’t come from just my own efforts, this National Beauty belongs to all of [Zhan Long] . 10% of all of the revenue will go to you, and the rest will go into [Zhan Long]’s treasury . I won’t take a single cent and everyone can watch over me to make sure I don’t . ”

One Second Hero widened his eyes and said, “Boss…… The world is not fair to selfless people . You can’t not take a single cent . Even though the [God of Commerce Badge] had been won by everyone, but… but in the end, you had fought the most . Without your courage, the [God of Commerce Badge] might have ended up in the hands of Jian Feng Han… . . ”
I smiled and said, “[Zhan Long] has been a dream of mine and my brothers . The greatest reward for me is to see [Zhan Long] rise up, got it?”
“Alright……”
One Second Hero laughed out loud and said, “Looks like there are truly different kinds of people in this world . The fact that Xiao Yao Zi Zai was able to rise up so quickly isn’t some miracle, but rather an inevitable outcome . ”
Matcha proudly stuck out her 34Cs and smiled, “Although Boss is very talented, Chen Yong Jie should still stop praising him . Otherwise, he’ll get arrogant . And once this guy gets arrogant, then the rest of [Zhan Long] is screwed… . . ”
Cheng Yong Jie rubbed his nose and said, “Beautiful Matcha, I know . In the future, when I join [Zhan Long], you must take extra care for me . We’re both Knights, but you’re still a bit stronger than me…… . ”
Matcha’s ego inflated as she looked toward me and said, “Boss, did you see that? There’s someone who called me very strong… . ”
I glanced at her, then reached out and patted her shoulder as I smiled and said, “Then everyday you should go to the practice area to train your spear’s stab, and make sure that at least 90% or more of your stabs are critical hits . Then I’ll admit that you’re strong . Otherwise, if even your [Phantom Ray Slash] misses how do you expect me to endure it?”
Matcha’s face flushed a bright red as she said, “Alright, I will!”
At that moment, there was suddenly a beep, and there was another invite ——
“Beep!”
[System Notification]: Player 【Ou Yang Nuo Yan】 has requested to be your friend, do you accept?
……
“Ou Yang Nuo Yan?” I hesitated for a second, then accepted . It was a Lv 51 female Archer .
“Beep”, there was another message . Ou Yang Nuo Yan had already sent a message saying, “Hello, Xiao Yao Zi Zai, I am Ou Yang Nuo Yan . I’m one of the officials from [Destiny]’s Chinese sector . It’s like this: tomorrow I will be coming to Hangzhou from Beijing . Please tell me your address, so I can come over… to discuss something with you……”
“Official?” I was puzzled and said, “Beautiful Ou Yang, what’s the actual reason you’re looking for me?”
“About that……” Ou Yang Nuo Yan’s face appeared to be a 20 year old beautiful miss . She seemed a bit hesitant as she pursed her lips and said, “It’s hard to explain right now . Either way… Tomorrow morning at around 11:30am, I will arrive at Hangzhou . Where are you? Let’s schedule a place to meet . Don’t worry, I don’t have any ill intentions…”
I couldn’t help but smile, “Of course I’m not worried . You’re a little girl, what could you possibly do to me? Alright, I’m currently in Hangzhou’s Liu Hua University . Let’s schedule a place to meet; how about the Dio Cafe outside of the university’s east gate?”
“Ok, I’ve written it down . Then… we’ll meet tomorrow? My cell phone number is 139*******, how about yours?”

After I also gave her my cell phone number, she went offline . It looked like she really was an official . She didn’t say much else to me, as though she was afraid that she would give away some of some secrets of the game .
……
At around 1am . , I brought my Flaming Tiger God to Firestone Canyon for a walk . My main goal wasn’t to grind levels, but to practice my skills . Seeing as I was the first player to reach Lv 70, bringing up my skills to Lv 8 was an absolute must . The higher the skill’s level was, the more distinct its effects were . This was especially true for skills like [Seven Star Fragment Slash] or [Great Realm of Desolation], which require higher skill levels to increase their attack powers .
At around 2am, Wan Er sent a message saying, “Go to sleep piggy, tomorrow morning we have the Sociology class . If you dare to skip this class, then you’ll fail for sure . Remember, 9:00 – 11:00, and you can’t be late . Don’t forget to pick me and and Dong Cheng up tomorrow morning……”
I replied, “Yup, go sleep now . I’ll go back to the city!”
“Okay!”
After the beautiful mistress’s face faded, I also went offline and took a shower . After getting onto the bed, I maintained my Yi Hai to keep my guard up, then gradually went to sleep .
……
By the time I awoke, the sun had already risen, and it was 8am sharp . I rolled out of bed and quickly washed up . After that, I ran straight towards the girls dorm and waited for less than 5 minutes before Wan Er and Dong Cheng Yue came down . They both wore the uniform + a short skirt, but Wan Er’s was a rosy red, whereas Dong Cheng Yue’s was a violet blue . The two charmingly stood there, just like a pair of beautiful twins . Moreover, the two girls were as close as sisters, so much that they even made me a little jealous .
“Let’s go! To the dining hall?” I asked .
Wan Er looked at me and smiled as well, “Looks like your mood is pretty good . It looks like with the grand opening of your [National Beauty], business has been going well, right?”
“Not bad…”
I glanced at the message on my phone, “Yesterday, someone made an offer of 650k G for the pair of leg guards… . . ”
Wan Er began to giggle and said, “I know, that’s the Ottoman Leg Guards that were dropped from Jian Feng Han, right?”
“Yup… even you know about it?”
“Of course . Seems like Wang Ze Cheng was the one to buy it . Such an injustice… Jian Feng Han probably even had some suicidal thoughts . To think that the equipment that he dropped was auctioned off at your National Beauty, that hit is just too cruel…”
“Yup, his suffering is my pleasure . ”
After we ate breakfast, we went to the classroom . As rumored, it was a very strict course . Practically all of the students had attended that day; everyone had gathered in the lecture hall . I followed the two misses and sat in the third row, then silently dipped my head and inwardly prayed that the teacher wouldn’t ask a question, especially not to me . Otherwise, I would use my glare to finish him off!
……
After a whole morning had passed, it was soon nearing 11 o’clock . I glanced at the time and got a bit apprehensive .
“What’s wrong?” Wan Er looked at me .
“I have to go out soon to meet someone . ”
“What kind of a person?”
“A woman…”
At that moment, Wan Er’s pretty face became serious, “Oh? Who?”
I smiled, “I heard she was one of the game’s officials . Her name is Ou Yang Nuo Yan, and is flying out from Beijing to see me . She said she wanted to talk to me about an extremely important matter . Even I don’t know what kind of a person she is……”
Dong Cheng Yue took out her phone and with a “pa pa pa” she looked up the name . Her face was full of shock as she showed me the search results . At that moment, even I was dumbstruck——
Oh Yang Nuo Yan: 20 years old, [Destiny]’s Chinese Sector’s Director, One of [Destiny]’s four biggest stockholders, Ou Yang Nuo Feng’s daughter .
……
“Damn…” Dong Cheng Yue’s small mouth dropped, “[Destiny]’s Chinese sector’s CEO is so young . One top of that, she’s got such an awesome father… Why, why is she looking for you? Did she fall for you? Or are you fooling around with her…”
I was speechless, “Originally I didn’t know her either, alright? She just suddenly found me and said she wanted to talk business . It should be something related to the game . ”
Wan Er gripped her fist and firmly said, “Alright, Dong Cheng and I’ll walk with you and go meet her later… . ”
“Okay… . . ”
……
Class ended not long after . I brought the two misses under the jealous glare of a group of male students through the school yard, and went to the second floor of Dio . I found a big table to sit at, and within 5 minutes, a “di di da da” sound of footsteps could be heard . All I could see was a beautiful girl wearing a suit and high heels walk over . In her hands, she held a folder of documents, and behind her was a man who was also dressed in a suit .
I stood up, and once she saw me, she walked straight towards me . She reached out her hand to shake mine and smiled, “Xiao Yao Zi Zai, hello, I am Ou Yang Nuo Yan… . . ”
“Hello…… . . ”
Ou Yang Nuo Yan looked beside me and couldn’t help but be surprised, “Oh, These two are… . I know! They are Fan Shu City’s Cang Tong and Cang Yue, right? You guys are extremely famous characters on [Destiny] . To think that you guys are together with Xiao Yao Zi Zai…”
Wan Er blushed and said, “What do you mean by together… . ”
Dong Cheng Yue also blushed and said, “Yup, we are together indeed… . ”
I awkwardly coughed and asked, “Beautiful Ou Yang, for what do I owe this visit?”
Ou Yang Yan smoothly took a document out of her folder and lightly smiled . She concisely said, “Xiao Yao Zi Zai, not long ago you created an Emperor Qin’s Sword that has the [Kill for Blood] skill . After careful examination, we discovered that a bug appeared on [Destiny]’s system, as we didn’t create any restrictions for the [Kill for Blood] . A total of 5147 players have complained about your Emperor Qin’s Sword, and have requested that we take away this sword . Of those complaints, a few came from Jian Feng Han, Simple, Flying Dragon and other famous people in Ba Huang City… . ”
“Take away Emperor Qin’s Sword?”
I slammed my hand against the table and coldly said, “That’s not possible……”
