System Break the Limit - Qing Shandian' Journey
Ch.49 - An Information and Metal of Three Colors
Walking hand in hand along the streets of the Rising Sun city, Qing Shandian and Mu Lingyun swept their eyes to find a bustling restaurant. Long enough to walk, they finally found a large restaurant with a four-story building.
"Yun Ling, it seems like it's quite crowded here. We'll just start with this." Said Qing Shandian in a calm tone as he looked at Mu Lingyun.
"Good." Mu Lingyun's heart was short, before the two of them walked over again.
When they arrived in front of the restaurant, Qing Shandian could see that this restaurant was named 'Dusk Dinner House'. Leaving their feet leisurely, Qing Shandian and Mu Lingyun entered the restaurant and headed straight for the reception desk.
"Welcome to the Dusk Trade House, young master. Does the young master want to order something?" Said the receptionist in green clothes in a friendly manner.
"Yes. We want to order the best food and drinks you have. By the way, on what floor are the most visitors?" Sahut Qing Shandian with a calm tone.
"On the third most crowded floor, young master. But in order to ascend to the third floor, the young master would have to pay an additional fee of 100 low-tier Spiritual Stones." The waiter explained kindly.
Nodding lightly, Qing Shandian handed the receptionist 100 low-tier Spiritual Stones and said, "No problem. We'll wait on the third floor. Just bring your best dishes." Before walking up to the third floor.
"Okay, young master." Follow the recipe before giving the order to the waiter.
On the third floor of the restaurant, Qing Shandian and Mu Lingyun both spread their spiritual perceptions to listen to the conversations of the people in the room. However, while they were focusing their senses, a servant came and brought many dishes towards the Qing Shandian and Mu Lingyun tables.
"This is the order of the young master." Said the maid in green clothes while deftly arranging the dishes on the table. "Good fun, young master, I'm sorry."
"Okay, thank you." Sahut Qing Shandian while nodding.
Meanwhile, the people who were inside the third floor room gave a questioning look. Who are the foreigners who order so many of the best food restaurants.
Qing Shandian and Mu Lingyun ignored them and started eating the dish in front of him while focusing their spiritual senses.
"That's it. Ignore her. Maybe he's the one who just entered this town. By the way, have you got the team for the next hunt."
"Yet. It's not easy to get a team that can go along with our thinking."
"We need to quickly put together a team and form a group. I heard, the small world that's about to open this year has a huge amount of wealth in it."
Hearing that conversation, Qing Shandian immediately turned to the others.
"really. I was also curious about the items he found during the exploration. I heard, it's some kind of unique metal. But don't know what class it is."
"Emmm.. I am the same. If it was a unique type of metal with a high grade, he actually profited from his exploration. By the way, where is he right now?"
"About that, I think the last time he visited the Sky Dusk Trading House. Maybe he sold the metal there."
Hearing that conversation, Qing Shandian felt his interest piqued. 'A unique metal? If it's from a high grade, maybe I can use it to practice and improve my weapon.' Thought in the heart.
"Not good. Not good at all. The city looks peaceful outside. But inside, it actually churned like surging sea water."
"Emmm.. You're correct. Not just a big clan. Even some mid-sized clans also started making their moves."
"Yes. Not only were large clans like the Wen Clan, the Xie Clan, and the Bai Clan, but also medium-sized clans like the Hao Clan, the Jing Clan, and the Meng Clan both making moves. And what was concerning was the Mu Clan who had been continuously cornered by the Duan Clan for almost two years."
"Haiihh.. Absolutely irony. Just because of a girl who ran away from home, they kept throwing tantrums and demanding that the Mu Clan exert all their strength to find Mu Yun."
"Basic fool. Mu Lingyun's. That's the right name."
"Hehe.. Yeah that's the point. Even every move of the Mu Clan did not escape every pair of eyes in this city."
Meanwhile, on Mu Lingyun's side, he looked extremely solemn with eyes filled with anger. His body trembled gently as his spiritual senses caught up to the conversation, causing him to lose his calm.
Qing Shandian who noticed Mu Lingyun's reaction frowned and immediately focused his spiritual senses sweeping through the room, until he finally knew what was the cause of Mu Lingyun's reaction that looked full of anger. He stretched out his hand, and clasped Mu Lingyun's palm to resuscitate her and calm her down.
Mu Lingyun who felt a touch in her palm immediately turned her gaze towards Qing Shandian. He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself.
"Don't fidget. Be calm... I will definitely help your family as long as I can. Now finish your meal, then we'll go." Said Qing Shandian softly while smiling gently.
Mu Lingyun nodded lightly and said, "Alright. Thanks An gege."
After which, the two of them quickly finished their meal, and walked down towards the reception desk.
"How much is my bill?" Said Qing Shandian as soon as they arrived at the reception desk.
"All 5500 low-level Spiritual Stones, Young master." Said the receptionist kindly replying to Qing Shandian.
Qing Shandian nodded lightly, then took out 6000 low-tier Spiritual Stones and said, "Take the remaining 500 for you. The food is really good."
"Thank you young sir." Said the receptionist cheerfully.
Qing Shandian simply replied with a nod and walked out of the restaurant with Mu Lingyun following behind him.
...…………………………...
As soon as they exited the Dusk Dining House and walked a little away, Qing Shandian immediately asked Mu Lingyun. "Yun Ling, do you know where to go towards the Dusk Sky Trading House?"
"Dusk Sky Trading House?... I think I still remember it. Does An gege want to buy something?" Suit Mu Lingyun in a relaxed tone while holding her chin.
"Then follow me. I'll take An gege there." Mu Lingyun's voice then walked a little faster and Qing Shandian immediately followed suit.
Half an hour later, Qing Shandian and Mu Lingyun arrived in front of a large five-story building with a plaque that read 'Dusk Sky Trade House' in blackish gold that hung above the entrance.
"An gege, we've arrived." Mu Lingyun said with a smile and looked at Qing Shandian with a gentle gaze.
"All right, let's go in. I can't wait to find out. What a unique metal is that." Qing Shandian said in a relaxed tone as he returned Mu Lingyun's smile before walking into the 'Dusk Sky Trade House' Building'.
When they arrived inside, many people were busy with their own activities. Some were choosing weapons and armor, some were observing various kinds of pills, and some were negotiating over something.
As soon as they arrived at the reception desk, a bright blue-clothed female receptionist on duty immediately greeted him kindly. "Welcome to the 'Dusk Sky Trade House'. Does the young master want to buy or sell something?"
Qing Shandian nodded lightly, then said, "Emm.. I want to ask you about something. I heard, there's someone selling unique metals in your trading house. Is that true?"
"It's true, young master. But about that unique metal, if the young master wants to check it out, the young master needs to discuss this with the manager." The woman's receptionist explained calmly.
"so. Then, can you take me to meet your manager? I'm curious about that unique metal." Qing Shandian nodded his head before replying to the receptionist's remark.
"Is the young master sure? Managers don't like to be interrupted if it's not a serious conversation." The receptionist hesitated a little.
"Take me to your manager's room." Qing Shandian's voice was short.
"good. Please follow me, young master." The receptionist said before then leading the way, heading towards the second floor.
A moment later the three of them arrived in front of a room. The receptionist immediately stepped forward, knocking on the door several times and said, "Manager, there are customers who want to meet."
"What's wrong? If it's not that important, get them out of here. I'm pretty busy."
"Ah.. Manager, they said they wanted to check out the unique metal that the trading house got not too long ago." The woman's receptionist explained.
It was not long since the voice of the female receptionist ended, the sound of light footsteps rang out from within the room, and the door opened. Seen a middle-aged man with a thin beard and had a thin and tall body that was none other than the Manager of the 'Dusk Sky Trade House'.
He observed Qing Shandian and Mu Lingyun closely, then said in a somewhat hoarse voice, "My name is Yan Shi Fang. Is it true that the young master wants to check out that unique metal?"
"Right, it was me. I was very curious when I heard that information while touring the city. Is Manager Fang, able to show it to me?" Sahut Qing Shandian calmly returned the gaze of the Manager of the 'Dusk Sky Trade House'.
The manager of the 'Dusk Sky Trading House' did not immediately reply to Qing Shandian's remark. He tilted his head towards the female receptionist who was still standing beside Qing Shandian and said, "Yan Yu, you can go back to your duties."
"Okay, Manager." Said the female receptionist with a slight bow then immediately turned around and walked away.
The manager of the 'Dusk Sky Trading House' that Manager Fang called out immediately turned his gaze towards Qing Shandian as soon as the receptionist left. He calmly said, "Please enter Young master. We're talking inside."
Once they were in the room and sat facing each other against the table as a barrier, Manager Fang started a casual conversation. "I'm sorry about the young master. The unique metal that the young master wanted to check, we actually had no idea what class it was in. Even our merchant house treasure appraiser team was unable to determine its Class. But, because of the uniqueness of the metal, we paid dearly for it."
"No problem. I'll check it out. If it was indeed a good metal, I wouldn't mind buying it at a higher price. Can Manager Fang show me that?" Sahut Qing Shandian calmly with a smile.
Manager Fang nodded lightly, then immediately turned around and picked up a wooden box measuring 30x50x40 cm. He placed it on the table and opened the box. It looks like a three-color metal that shimmers with irregular shapes. Manager Fang said, "This is the metal I mentioned Young master. Please if the young master wants to check it out."
Qing Shandian who had already noticed from the moment the box was opened, he simply nodded lightly then extended his hand to hold the metal. He lifted it from inside the box, then examined it carefully while flipping through the metal. Qing Shandian's hands trembled slightly. With his profession as a Heaven Class 'Master of Armament', he could not even tell the Class of the three-colored metal. He could only conclude, that it must be a high quality metal above Heaven Class.
After quite checking, Qing Shandian placed it back into the wooden box. He looked at Manager Fang, then said calmly. "Manager Fang, I can't figure out the Class of this metal either. But I want it to raise the Class from my sword. How much do I have to pay for it?"
"That's... Young master, I will be honest with you. Previously, our trading house paid 2 Million mid-tier Spiritual Stones for the metal. Because in our opinion, the metal must be of high quality. Therefore, if the young master is indeed interested, what about the 3 Million intermediate-tier Spiritual Stones." Manager Fang replied to Qing Shandian's words with slight hesitation.
Mu Lingyun who heard Manager Fang's words went agape then she said with a little anger. "Old man, if you raise the price that much, why don't you just rob. 3 Million? What is 3 Million. Isn't your appraiser not even able to determine the Class?"
"Haiih.. Young lady, it doesn't matter how much I increase the price. If our trading house were to include it in the auction, how much do you think we can get? Since the auction is still very long, we cannot possibly continue to hold an item inside the warehouse. We either have to keep rolling our venture capital or we're going bankrupt." Manager Fang sighed helplessly before replying to Mu Lingyun's words.
"Already, it's okay Yun Ling. I'll pay for it." Qing Shandian's words gently calmed Mu Lingyun. He then took out 3,000 high-tier Spiritual Stones and said. "This is the payment. 3,000 high-tier Spiritual Stones. Manager Fang could calculate it if in doubt that the number was less."
Manager Fang widened his eyes with his mouth agape as soon as he saw the pile of Spiritual Stones glittering on his desk. He looked at Qing Shandian with a look of disbelief. A moment later he woke up and said. "Okay, young master. I'll count it fast." Quite simply before sweeping his spiritual perception counted the number of Spiritual Stones.
"Enough, young master. Amount appropriate. This metal belongs to the young master now." Said Manager Fang as soon as he finished calculating the number of Spiritual Stones while pushing the wooden box before him.
Qing Shandian nodded lightly and immediately kept the wooden box. He also said with a smile. "Because my business here is done, I'm leaving. I'm very happy to do business with Manager Fang."
"Haha.. It doesn't matter young master. I also enjoy doing business with the young master. Let me take you." Sahut Manager Fang with a carefree tone and immediately led Qing Shandian and Mu Lingyun out of the 'Dusk Sky Trading House' Building'.
Along the way downstairs, many pairs of eyes were centered on Qing Shandian and Mu Lingyun who were led directly by Manager Fang. Whispers did not escape their hearing, but they were ignored.
A moment later, they arrived outside the door of the 'Dusk Sky Trade House' Building'. Manager Fang with a polite demeanor and warm tone while smiling said, "Young master, if there is something young master needs, feel free to visit our trading house. As long as it's within our reach, we'll do our best."
"Hehe.. Sure do. Then I'll go first. Thanks for the business Manager Fang." Qing Shandian spoke with a smile on his face as he cupped his hands back at manager Fang's polite demeanor.
"Be careful young master." Sahut Manager Fang while returning Qing Shandian's greetings. He also noticed the backs of Qing Shandian and Mu Lingyun before re-entering the 'Dusk Sky Trade House' with a delighted expression painted on his face.
