Chapter 1271: Not a Joke

At this moment, a shifty-eyed young man arrived downstairs.

He shouted as soon as he arrived, “Steward Mu, prepare some Nine Veins Steel for me.”

“Young Master Qiu, wait for a while. I have another customer here.” Steward Mu did not walk away. After all, he had asked Ou Yangming first.

He had noticed Ou Yangming for a while. He believed that the young fellow was here to buy something but did not seem to find what he needed after looking for a while.

Hearing Steward Mu’s words, the young man was a little impatient. He glanced at Ou Yangming. “Do you think he’s someone who can afford to buy good things? Aren’t you wasting your time following him? Hurry up and prepare the Nine Veins Steel for me. My father is still waiting for those materials to be used for smithing.”

Steward Mu frowned slightly.

The Qiu family was a big family in the Mystic Sky Immortal City. The old master of the Qiu family was a smithing master who could smith Good Grade magic treasures. Moreover, he had some connections with the Mystic Sky Sect. The steward could not offend such a person.

“Sir, why don’t you take a look around first? I’ll go get some Nine Veins Steel for him first.” Steward Mu looked at Ou Yangming and asked.

“Go ahead.” Ou Yangming did not say anything.

Steward Mu walked over quickly and helped the young man get a lot of Nine Veins Steel.

“Young Master Qiu, is your father planning to smith something good this time? He actually needs so much Nine Veins Steel.”

Looking at the Nine Veins Steel on the ground, Steward Mu asked with surprise.

Young Master Qiu said with a smile, “It’s not a secret, so I’ll just tell you. My father has made a lot of breakthroughs in his smithing skills a few days ago. He wants to try refining a Good Grade flying boat. I’m here to prepare the materials for him.”

He spoke proudly and even deliberately glanced at Ou Yangming, but Ou Yangming did not look surprised at all.

‘Does this guy not know the preciousness of a Good Grade flying boat?’

The young master wanted to show off his father’s ability, but he did not expect to be playing the lute to a cow.

Young Master Qiu made a sound and put the pieces of Nine Veins Steel into the interspatial bag he brought.

On the other hand, Steward Mu was very cooperative by being surprised.

He said in surprise, “Master Qiu is indeed extraordinary. He can actually refine a Good Grade flying boat. If he can refine extra flying boats in the future, he can sell them to our chamber of commerce. We’re willing to pay high prices for them.”

A Good Grade flying boat was considered a rare thing in the Great Wide World. Some powerhouses in the law boundary might not even have one.

Even if it was just a possibility, the chamber of commerce must seize this opportunity.

Young Master Qiu said proudly, “Of course. Given our relationship, Steward Mu, if we have something good, we’ll naturally consider the Glorious Treasures Chamber of Commerce first.”

“Thank you, Young Master Qiu.”

“You’re welcome,” Young Master Qiu said with a smile.

Steward Mu calculated the price and said, “15 pieces of Nine Veins Steel. Priced at 100,000 high-grade spirit coins each, the total is 1.5 million high-grade spirit coins. To congratulate Master Qiu on his improvement in smithing, I” ll make the decision to exempt 100,000 high-grade spirit coins for you, Young Master, so the revised total will be 1.4 million high-grade spirit coins. What do you think?”

“Not bad, not bad.” Young Master Qiu nodded repeatedly with a joyful smile on his face.

The price of Nine Veins Steel was publicly announced. When he came out, he withdrew 1.5 million high-grade spirit coins from his family. Now, the remaining 100,000 high-grade spirit coins belonged to him. This was a good thing that he picked up for free. 100,000 high-grade spirit coins were a huge fortune even for him.

After settling Young Master Qiu’s problem, Steward Mu returned to Ou Yangming’s side. Young Master Qiu did not leave either. He looked at Ou Yangming with a faint smile.

“Hey, young fella, what are you planning to buy?”

Ou Yangming frowned slightly. He did not pay attention to the young man. “Do you have the blood essences of Ancient Demons here?”

“Ancient Demons’ blood essences!”

Steward Mu looked at Ou Yangming seriously and responded, “We do have them, but they’re very precious.”

Young Master Qiu stared at Ou Yangming, feeling a little indignant. The young fellow actually ignored him.

When he heard what Ou Yangming said, he was first surprised, then he looked at the young fellow from top to bottom and laughed out loud, “Do you know what they are? They’re incredibly precious. Just a few drops of them can bankrupt a clan. You…”

Young Master Qiu did not think that the young fellow was qualified to buy the blood essences of Ancient Demons.

Ou Yangming’s words became a provocation to Young Master Qiu. Just now, the young fellow ignored him, so he was very dissatisfied.

“How much do you have?” Ou Yangming asked again. He looked straight at Steward Mu and did not pay any attention to the clown beside him.

“We have about 1,500 kilograms of them in the chamber of commerce now,” Steward Mu said in a deep voice.

Ancient Demons’ blood essences were rare. Of course, that was all. After all, they did not have much use for humans. The blood essences were extremely violent. Even for humans who cultivated demonic cultivation techniques, they were very difficult to fuse with. Basically, the gains would not make up for the losses.

This was also the reason the chamber of commerce had kept so many of them. After all, they were well preserved and can’t be destroyed. They had so much of them left after countless years of accumulation.

“What’s the point of saying so much? Even if he can afford it, he can only buy a drop or two at most. I think he’s probably just fooling around with you.” Young Master Qiu was a little displeased. In his opinion, Ou Yangming was just casually asking for his face. The blood essences were flashy but impractical, and they were very pricey. Only a fool would buy them.

Steward Mu did not say much. He would not interfere in the grudges between customers. Moreover, based on his many years of experience, he could tell that Ou Yangming did not seem to be fooling around.

“1,500 kilograms?” Ou Yangming pondered for a moment. This was still a bit too little for him.

Of course, it was already very good that he could get so much of them. He said, “I want all of the blood essences. I suppose your other branches should have some too. Ask them to send them over.”

‘He wants all 1,500 kilograms of the blood essences?

‘And they’re not enough?’

Ou Yangming’s words were domineering.

Even Steward Mu’s eyes were filled with disbelief.

He took a careful look at this young fellow. ‘Could it be that it’s just like Young Master Qiu has said? Is he really just fooling around with me?’

“Friend, you can’t be joking, right? Why do you need so much Ancient Demons’ blood essences?” Steward Mu asked casually.

Ou Yangming snorted. “Don’t tell me the Glorious Treasures Chamber of Commerce needs to know what their customers use your goods for.”

The air suddenly froze, and Steward Mu realized that he had said something wrong. He hurriedly said, “Friend, you misunderstood. I was a bit surprised just now. I didn’t mean to inquire about you.”

“Steward Mu, what are you talking about with him? I think he’s obviously here to make fun of you. Those 1,500 kilograms of Ancient Demons’ blood essences can’t even be bought by a top clan in the Immortal City. This guy even asked you to send over all the blood essences from the other places. What a joke!” Young Master Qiu felt that it was absurd.

The steward thought for a moment then said, “Friend, you should know that the Glorious Treasures Chamber of Commerce is spread all over the Zhenwu Continent. If you want to have the other blood essences sent here, a lot of manpower and material resources will be required. Only if you truly decide to buy them and can guarantee that you can afford them will I inform the other branches.”

Ou Yangming understood his worries and asked, “How much is the total?”

“Uhm…”

Steward Mu only knew a rough figure, so he calculated for a moment and said, “About 13 billion high-grade spirit coins. Of course, this is only a rough figure. As for the exact amount, I’ll have to wait until all the items are here before I can calculate.”

As he spoke, he looked at Ou Yangming and noticed that his expression did not change at all.

13 billion high-grade spirit coins. What kind of figure was this? Even when Steward Mu himself said it out loud, he was shocked, but Ou Yangming did not seem to care.

Young Master Qiu, who had not left yet, was even more shocked.

This was too exaggerated.

He had a feeling that the blood essences would be very expensive, but he did not expect it to be so much.

Ou Yangming was not surprised. Ancient Demons were very rare in the Great Wide World, so it was expected that their blood essences would be expensive. He frowned slightly. He could not take out more than 10 billion high-grade spirit coins for sure, but this did not mean that he had no solution.

“What’s the buying price for Raw Stones here?”

Ou Yangming thought of the Raw Stone that he had exchanged from the Mystic Sky Sect. That Raw Stone had cost him close to 200,000 points. With his strength at the moment, the thing was no longer of much use.

‘Why is he asking about Raw Stones?’ Steward Mu thought to himself. Raw Stones were top-tier treasures in the Great Wide World. They had unexpected benefits for cultivation.

Such a thing was not as useless as the blood essences of Ancient Demons. Once it appeared, it would be in short supply.

Steward Mu replied, “The buying price of a Raw Stone is 10 billion per piece.”

“You’re not going to say you have a Raw Stone, are you?” Young Master Qiu said with a sneer.

Compared to the Ancient Demons’ blood essences, a Raw Stone was the thing he dreamed of. Even so, that thing was too precious. In the entire Great Wide World, only a few people had one.

“Is that thing very precious?” Ou Yangming sneered.

“I don’t know where you got the name of that treasure, but I can tell you that a Raw Stone is incredibly precious. Not many people in the Great Wide World have one. My father saw one once.” Young Master Qiu had a disdainful smile on his face.

“Are you talking about this?” Ou Yangming stretched out his hand, and a dark brown ore appeared in his hand. As soon as the stone appeared, the spiritual Qi on the second floor instantly increased by several times.

The other guests also noticed the abnormality and walked over one by one.

“What’s going on? Why did the spiritual Qi suddenly increase by more than 3 times? Am I mistaken?”

“I also felt it. Could it be that the Glorious Treasures Chamber of Commerce has set up a Spirit-gathering Formation?”

Soon, someone noticed the stone in Ou Yangming’s hand. They could clearly feel that the source of all the spiritual Qi was this stone.

Steward Mu looked at the stone in Ou Yangming’s hand with a fiery gaze.

‘This is a Raw Stone. It’s really a Raw Stone!’ Steward Mu did not expect Ou Yangming to take out such a good thing. Thinking back to what the other party had said just now, he wondered if the young fellow was planning to use the Raw Stone to exchange for the Ancient Demons’ blood essences.

Steward Mu became excited at the thought. Unlike the blood essences, a Raw Stone was a highly sought-after item. If the Raw Stone was used as the final item in an auction, the Glorious Treasures Chamber of Commerce would definitely become more famous, surpassing other chambers of commerce.

“It’s fake, it’s definitely fake. How could a Raw Stone look like this? Isn’t this too ugly?” Young Master Qiu had an incredulous look on his face as he looked at the stone in surprise.

“Young Master Qiu, be careful. This young master has taken out a genuine Raw Stone.” Hearing Young Master Qiu’s words, Steward Mu hurriedly said.

Unknowingly, he had even changed the term of address for Ou Yangming. A young fellow who could take out a Raw Stone was certainly not someone Young Master Qiu could compare with.

Moreover, Ou Yangming was probably not joking when he said that he wanted to buy all the Ancient Demons’ blood essences.
