Chapter 5321 Im Going to Count Some Inventory
Uh...
The woman was baffled, never having had someone joke like this to her. It was only once the carriage drove off that she realized Long Chen was just joking.
I want to see your guild leader here. Of course, I know that your guild leader is very busy and cant just randomly come out to see some Sage King, especially one who looks as poor as I do. Please just show this to someone knowledgeable. I have a business proposal to discuss with him about this, said Long Chen as he handed a refined case to the woman.
The woman curiously received it. She was very experienced but had never seen someone like Long Chen. He was young and didnt have anything flashy on him. While he was only a Sage King, he exuded the presence of a great leader. She was unable to figure out who he really was.
Long Chen seemed to have seen through her thoughts, and his words made it so that she could only act according to his instructions. There was no other choice.
Alright, then please wait in our hall for a moment. Have some tea! The attendant courteously brought them into the hall, where maids were specifically in charge of pouring tea. The attendant then bid them farewell and left with the case.
It wasnt long before she returned, practically running. Accompanying her was a scholarly elder. Long Chen was startled to see him because although his aura wasnt very strong, he was actually an eight-vein Human Emperor.
Long Chen slowly rose. Based on this elders bearing, he should be the guild leader here.
Im very sorry to have kept you two waiting. Allow me to introduce myself. I am the humble guild leader of this place, Li Shuangwen, the elder said, bowing slightly.
Qing Xi was shocked. Given how large the Huayun Trading Company was, she couldnt believe that simply because Long Chen asked to see the guild leader, the guild leader would actually come in person.
This junior is Long Chen, and this is my junior sister, Qing Xi. Greetings, guild leader. Long Chen cupped his fists in return.
Qing Xi hastily followed suit. An eight-vein Human Emperor was considered a big figure in the Wind God Sea Pavilion. Usually, she wouldnt be qualified to meet such a person.
If you dont mind, please come inside with me, said Li Shuangwen, gesturing for them to come with him.
My junior sister is a bit shy. Can you find her a place to rest? Ill discuss the other matters with you, said Long Chen.
Alright. Hui Ying, please bring junior sister Qing Xi somewhere to rest, Li Shuangwen instructed the attendant.
Qing Xi looked at Long Chen nervously. However, he smiled comfortingly, and only then did she leave with the attendant.
After that, Li Shuangwen brought Long Chen to a private room, where the case was placed on the table. It was what was inside that had made the guild leader personally meet with Long Chen.
After sitting down, Long Chen got straight to the point. I have a very close relationship with the Huayun Trading Company. In the mortal world, I benefited greatly from your assistance, and after ascending to the immortal world, I also received your support. I have just come from beyond the Desolation, and I didnt expect to encounter you again here. I wish to ask about one of your people. His name is Zheng Wenlong.
You came from beyond the Desolation? As in... you crossed the devil domain wasteland? Li Shuangwen asked, shocked.
Beyond the Desolation was a specific phrase. Within the Heaven Essence World, there were many experts who came from other heavens. They passed through various channels to arrive here, which was nothing special. Qing Xi had done just that.
However, if someone said that they came from beyond the Desolation, it meant they had crossed the devil domain wasteland separating this world from the Sovereign Emperor Heaven. That was why Li Shuangwen was shocked.
Due to the suppression of the laws, it was almost impossible to pass through the devil domain wasteland. Even though they knew there was a world beyond it, no one had a way of crossing over.
Long Chen briefly explained how he had crossed the wasteland, moving Li Shuangwen.
Then sirs power must truly be shocking to slaughter your way through those devil creatures. Its hard to believe, Li Shuangwen praised, but he suddenly clapped his forehead. Ah, how rude of me. You said you wanted to find one of your friends?
Zheng Wenlong, said Long Chen.
He truly wanted to know if Zheng Wenlong had made it here. If so, things would be a bit easier.
Our Huayun Trading Company has a total of 8765 Zheng Wenlongs. All of them match the age, lower plane ascension, and other details you mentioned. They are spread throughout every corner of the Heaven Essence World. It will be difficult to locate the exact one.
That many? Long Chen was absolutely shocked.
After thinking for a moment, Long Chen said, Thats fine. Im not in a hurry to find him. Then how about thiswhat do you think of the medicinal pill? Is your Huayun Trading Company interested in them?
Of course were interested. This is a peerless-grade golden pill. We havent auctioned something like this in many years, replied Li Shuangwen immediately.
What Long Chen had given the attendant was a peerless-grade longevity-extending pillthe same one he had given Chu He. This medicinal pill was like an extra life to those whose longevity was coming to an end, and they would be willing to pay a lot for it.
The Huayun Trading Company operated its own auction houses, and for these auctions to succeed, they needed top-tier items. By attracting large crowds and raising excitement, they could sell such treasures at excellent prices.
A peerless-grade longevity-extending pill would drive people mad. So, as soon as Li Shuangwen saw it, he rushed over, not wanting to make Long Chen wait.
I have several more golden pills like this, along with some mutated medicinal plants. Id like you to auction them for me. If there are other mutated medicinal ingredients, I would also be interested in trading for them, Long Chen said, taking out more cases.
Even Li Shuangwen couldnt help but be amazed by what was inside. Long Chen had taken out over ten peerless-grade golden pills, each one different from the others.
Such pills might not appear for years, and yet here were over ten of them. Li Shuangwens shock was unmistakable.
As for the mutated medicinal ingredients, those were not as surprising. After all, this place was near the border of Endless Desolation, so the Huayun Trading Company frequently encountered mutated plants. Even so, when Long Chen produced hundreds of them, the shock returned to Li Shuangwens face.
These medicinal ingredients were ones Long Chen had obtained from the Wang family. After planting them in the primal chaos space, they rapidly proliferated. Now, he had large fields of them, so he took one of each to see if he could trade for even more mutated medicinal ingredients.
Help me deal with these items and continue searching for Zheng Wenlong, the one from the Martial Heaven Continent who knows me. If you find him, count these transactions under his name. I hope I can see him soon, Long Chen said.
Long Chen knew that promotions within the Huayun Trading Company were based on business. The more business someone did, the higher their status and authority within the company. Hence, it was of vital importance to find Zheng Wenlong quickly.
After talking with Li Shuangwen, Long Chen requested a map of the Heaven Essence World. Then he went to Qing Xi, and Li Shuangwen personally saw them off.
Once they left the Huayun Trading Company, Qing Xi asked, Senior apprentice-brother Long Chen, where are we going now?
Wait for me at the transportation formation. Im taking a quick trip to the Soaring Dragon Company, Long Chen replied.
You dont want me to accompany you? asked Qing Xi.
No need. Im just going to count some inventory. Ill be fast! Long Chen parted ways with Qing Xi once more and flew straight for the Soaring Dragon Company.
