Lu Youcai was rather anxious. fifty kilograms of Black Glazed Spinel was really too much. That amount was impossible for him to collect within three days.
What should he do?
Lu Youcai frowned, and let out a long sigh. He struck out two Signal Flares immediately, with one flying to Martial Market Bank and another flying to Saint Bu Gentry.
“I hope I can buy the Black Glazed Spinel from Saint Bu Gentry and Martial Market Bank. Even if they overcharged us, it would still be worth it.”
He must buy it no matter how high the price was.
However, some news came back from Saint Bu Gentry and Martial Market Bank a while later. They only had a small amount of Black Glazed Spinel, which in total was less than ten kilograms.
“I’m done for! Even Saint Bu Gentry and Martial Market Bank have only a small amount of Black Glazed Spinel. Where can I find 50 kilograms?”
“I’m done for! Even Saint Bu Gentry and Martial Market Bank have only a small amount of Black Glazed Spinel. Where can I find 50 kilograms?”
At this moment, Lu Youcai had no mood to welcome Zhang Ruochen. He was very anxious and walked around in circles.
Zhang Ruochen sat by the side and looked very calm. He said, “Presbyter Lu, I can sell fifty kilograms of Black Glazed Spinel to the Sword Sanctum.”
“It’s so difficult to find fifty kilograms of Black Glazed Spinel … Wait, what did you just say?”
Lu Youcai “rolled” toward Zhang Ruochen like a meatball with his eyes wide opened. He acted like a drowning man trying to hold on to a straw. He stared closely at Zhang Ruochen
Zhang Ruochen said, “I got a patch of Black Glazed Spinel in Five Elements Primitive World. I can give fifty kilograms of it to Sword Sanctum.”
Hearing this, Lu Youcai’s eyes were full of tears. He almost knelt down in front of Zhang Ruochen.
“Right! How could I forget that Mr. Zhang has been to Five Elements Primitive World,” Lu Youcai pat his forehead and wanted to slap himself.
“Mr. Zhang, you are really my life saver!”
Zhang Ruochen said with a smile, “At first, I wanted to sell the Black Glazed Spinel. But you suggested that I go to the Auction House…”
Lu Youcai immediately held Zhang Ruochen by his shoulder. He was so afraid that Zhang Ruochen would leave, and he said, “Don’t! Please don’t go to the Auction House. Mr. Zhang, you must sell the Black Glazed Spinel to me. I will pay you twice the market price. No, three times the market price. Is that ok? If you are not satisfied, we can still negotiate.”
Zhang Ruochen said with a smile, “Certainly, as you wish.”
Nobody would think that they have made too much money. Zhang Ruochen was no exception.
Lu Youcai was relieved. Three times the price seemed very high, but if he went to the Auction House, the price would only be higher.
“Oh my god.”
Luckily, Zhang Ruochen did not haggle over it with him. Otherwise, Lu Youcai would have to pay five times or even ten times the price if he went to the Auction House.
Zhang Ruochen took out a hundred kilograms of the Black Glazed Spinel that was prepared a long time ago. He gave half of them to Lu Youcai, which was exactly fifty kilograms.
Seeing that there were still fifty kilograms of the Black Glazed Spinel left in the box, Lu Youcai licked his lips. He said, “Mr. Zhang, can you also sell another fifty kilograms of the Black Glazed Spinel to Sword Sanctum? As for the price, you name it.
The Black Glazed Spinel was a Spirit Treasure of Origin, which not only could be used to refine a weapon, but also could be used to practice the Treasured Body of Water Spirit. Its value could not be compared with any amount of Spiritual Crystals.
He would buy as much as he could.
Zhang Ruochen dug out more than four hundred kilograms of the Black Glazed Spinel in Five Elements Primitive World. Even if he sold a hundred kilograms of it to Sword Sanctum, it was not a big deal.
Zhang Ruochen thought for a moment. He said, “All right! Since we are friends, I’ll sell you a hundred kilograms of the Black Glazed Spinel in one go. I am still only charging you three times the market price.”
Lu Youcai was very jouyous. He said, “Being your friend is my great honor.”
Although Lu Youcai’s current cultivation was much higher than that of Zhang Ruochen, Zhang Ruochen was still one of the Kings of the new generation. With his talent, his future achievements would definitely surpass Lu Youcai’s.
Only good things would happen after making friends with Zhang Ruochen.
Lu Youcai called over two superiors of Sword Sanctum and asked them to send fifty kilograms of the Black Glazed Spinel to the ancestor.
At the same time, he handed a purple card that was made of crystal to Zhang Ruochen. He said with a smile, “a hundred kilograms of the Black Glazed Spinel cost a total of three hundred and sixty million pieces of Spiritual Crystals, which were all deposited in the Martial Market Bank. Brother Zhang, you can withdraw it at any time you want.”
He took over the purple crystal card and saw nine star-shaped light streaks on the front side of the card, which was the nine-star VIP card of the Martial Market Bank.
Only those who had deposited a hundred million pieces of Spiritual Crystals were qualified to get a nine-star VIP card.
The nine-star VIP card was a symbol of great status even in East Region Saint City. Anyone with it could go to places where common people could not go. When he entered the Auction House, he could also be seated on the VIP seat.
Zhang Ruochen injected the Genuine Qi into the card. Streaks of inscriptions appeared on the surface of the card, forming a series of numbers.
Three hundred sixty millions of Spiritual Crystal was a big fortune. Even a Half-Saint was not as rich as Zhang Ruochen.
After confirming the amount, Zhang Ruochen nodded and smiled, “Brother Lu, you are the diplomatic presbyter in the Sword Sanctum, so you should be quite familiar with East Region Saint City. There is one thing I want to ask for your help.”
“Brother, if you need anything from me, just name it. In the Eastern Region, as long as it’s not related to a Half-Saint, I can do it for you.
Lu Youcai pat on his chest and promised.
Zhang Ruochen said, “I want to buy a mansion in the Seventh District in Jinhong Mainland. It doesn’t need to be too big, but it would be better not to be too far away from the Saint Academy.”
Lu Youcai laughed out loudly, “It’s just a piece of cake. I’ll order someone to search right now. If there is any news, I will inform you immediately.”
“Thank you very much,” Zhang Ruochen said.
Lu Youcai said, “We are brothers. If you say ‘thank you’, then you are regarding me as an outsider. It should be me who need to say thank you.”
Zhang Ruochen thought for a moment. He asked again, “There is one more thing. I have been troubled by a big problem recently, and I need a reliable master to protect my safety or even help me out of the trouble. Brother Lu, do you know what I should do?”
Lu Youcai was a smart man. He understood instantly what was going on. His eyes squinted and he asked, “Brother Zhang, do you need a bodyguard or a contract killer?”
Zhang Ruochen said with a smile, “If I want to hire an assassin, I would go straight to the black market. But I don’t trust anyone in the black market.”
“I understand!”
Lu Youcai nodded his head and stroked his beard. He said with a smile, “Brother Zhang, you should have heard of the mercenaries?”
“Certainly,” Zhang Ruochen said.
Lu Youcai said, “The Thirty-first City of Jinhong Mainland is the gathering place of the mercenary. At that place, you can hire the mercenary in the Heaven Realm or Fish-dragon realm as long as you have the money. You can even hire the King’s royal mercenary in the Half-Saint Class.”
“Mercenaries who have become famous have their own beliefs, and some even value their reputation more than their lives. Moreover, there is a Mercenary Society in the Eastern Region which specifically restricts the mercenaries and sanctions them. So if you want to hire a mercenary, going there will be a good choice.”
Zhang Ruochen’s eyes were brightened. He showed a thoughtful look.
If he could hire a superior in the Ninth Change in the Fish-dragon Realm to kill Blood Spirit Queen, he would succeed for sure.
Zhang Ruochen must kill Blood Spirit Queen before he left for the Battlefield of the Primitive World.
Hearing Lu Youcai’s words, Zhang Ruochen felt that it was necessary to go to the Thirty-first City to hire a master. Even if it’s not for killing Blood Spirit Queen, he could also hire someone to protect his life.
