Chapter 3745: The spirit Jade card

Translator: 549690339

Seeing his gritted teeth, the shopkeeper couldn’t help but shake his head and then directly announced,””It seems that the result is already very obvious. This guest, can you please leave for a while?”

The manager’s expression was still polite, but his words weren’t polite at all. Yu Zhe knew that if he backed out now, it would mean that the one and only star inkstone he’d been thinking about would belong to Lin Yi, and he’d have to return empty-handed!

This meant that Yu Zhe had worked so hard for so long, but in the end, not only had he failed, but he had also been in debt.

One had to know that although the 1200 pieces of spiritual Jade he had borrowed from someone were still piled up in his cave abode and had not been put to use, he had to pay a huge amount of interest every day. It had only been a few days since he had borrowed them, but the interest alone had already reached an astonishing three-digit amount, and it would only increase in the future!

Originally, if he had been able to successfully obtain the star inkstone, Yu Zhe wouldn’t have cared about such a small amount of spirit Jade. As long as he became stronger in the future, not only would these people not ask him to return the spirit Jade, but they would also rush to give him spirit Jade, making him their protective umbrella.

But now, his wonderful vision was instantly shattered. What awaited him was the cruel reality. Those high-interest creditors would definitely come to his door to force him to pay the debt. With his current strength, he could not afford to offend these people. It should be known that these people were not good people!

As a result, one could easily imagine how miserable his future would be!

In a short moment, he had fallen from heaven to hell. Yu Zhe’s heart was not only roaring, but he was also hysterical, gradually turning into a demon!

However, no matter how hysterical he was in his heart, Yu Zhe didn’t show it on the surface. In the eyes of others, he was just silently and unwillingly biting his lips, that was all. Yu Zhe glared at Lin Yi viciously before leaving the room.

This star inkstone will forever belong to me alone, no one can take it away from me! A mere grassroots rogue cultivator actually dared to compete with me, he really doesn’t know how to write the word “death”!

“Customer, later when you leave our Hong Chamber of Commerce, you must be careful.” The manager couldn’t help but remind Lin Yi as he watched Yu Zhe leave.

He had been in the Hong Chamber of Commerce for decades and had seen countless people. He had seen this kind of scene many times. No matter how deep Yu Zhe hid, he couldn’t escape his fiery eyes.

“Thank you for the reminder.” Lin Yi smiled faintly.

In fact, there was no need for the shopkeeper to remind him. Just now, when the other party looked at him, he had already felt a sharp killing intent. Although it was hidden very well, the sinister poison in it simply made people shudder. If he couldn’t even detect this, then he would be too slow.

It seemed that there would be some trouble when they went out later! Lin Yi sighed to himself. From the man’s aura, he could tell that he was in the mid-Foundation Stage, one level higher than him. He was never afraid of fighting someone of a higher level, but the risk was still high.

However, it was just a bit of risk. Lin Yi had fought his way up from the common world and he never knew what fear was.

So what if the other party was a mid-stage foundation building expert? if they really bumped into him without knowing what was good for them, they might start a massacre! He’d been on Sky Class Island for over a month, and he’d never killed anyone!

The manager’s respect for Lin Yi grew even higher after seeing how calm and collected he was-he could tell that Lin Yi was at the peak of the early Foundation Stage from the way he didn’t hide his aura.

And as a peak early Foundation Stage expert, in the face of the threat of a middle Foundation Stage expert, he was still able to remain so calm, this was a very rare thing. If it was someone else, they would have been panicking and not know how to deal with it.

It seemed that this customer was able to take out two Supreme-grade foundation-breaking pills so casually because he had great confidence and not because he was lucky!

With this additional appreciation, the shopkeeper’s attitude was obviously more polite and attentive than before. He took the initiative to ask,””I am Hong Zhong, may I know your name?”

Under normal circumstances, Hong Zhong was the shopkeeper of the Hong Chamber of Commerce. Even if he was polite to others, it was only on the surface. He rarely took the initiative to tell others his name.

After all, although he was only a branch Manager, the Hong Chamber of Commerce was one of the top Chambers of Commerce in the middle Island. The huge resources in the hands of any Branch Manager were enough to make even the higher-ups of the three pavilions on the North Island jealous. His status was self-evident. Even the core disciples of the three pavilions could not be compared to him.

What’s more, Hong Zhong’s surname was Hong. The hidden meaning behind this was self-evident. Although Hong Zhong was a branch of the Hong Chamber of Commerce, he was also a member of the Hong family!

He had taken the initiative to ask for his name, which meant that this guest had become a special guest that the Hong Chamber of Commerce had to take care of. This was a good thing that many people could only dream of. In the entire North Island, there were not many people who had this qualification.

“My surname is Lin, and my first name is two.” Lin Yi said as he bowed slightly.

“So it’s young hero Lin. How about we start the trade now? You can take a look at what you want first. ” Hong Zhong knew that Lin Yi couldn’t wait to get his hands on the star inkstone. He pushed the wooden box in front of Lin Yi and suggested.

“Alright,” he said. Lin Yi nodded and opened the box to take a closer look. He confirmed that this was the star inkstone he saw last time,”I don’t have any problems with that.”

“That’s good. ” Hong Zhong packed up the box immediately, while Lin Yi handed over the two high quality foundation breakthrough pills and the bag of four hundred spiritual jades to Hong Zhong.

After the exchange, Lin Yi felt a weight off his chest-he finally got the star inkstone he’d been dreaming about!

Although he didn’t know what it was for now, he would know once he went back and asked that damn thing. If it was something that the big boss of the spirit beast clan valued so much, it must be a precious treasure that could only be found by chance!

After the deal was done, Hong Zhong took out a dark green jade card from his cabinet and handed it to Lin Yi,”Young hero Lin, this is the spiritual Jade card. It’s not only used by our Hong Chamber of Commerce, but also by all the other large-scale regular businesses in the merchant Union on the five big islands of the heaven class. It can replace real spiritual Jade for purchase. This way, the next time you buy such precious items, you can directly use the spiritual Jade card, and you don’t have to go through so much trouble to carry a whole bag of spiritual Jade like this time.”

That’s equivalent to the Union Bank card in the secular world?

Lin Yi’s heart skipped a beat-the spirit Jade card felt cold to the touch, and the quality of the Jade was obviously higher than high-tier spirit Jade!
