5865 Chapter 5862-small trade fair

Lin Yi smiled faintly,”brother Hong, if it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t even care about this honorary Vice President. Let’s go. Don’t bother with this stupid guy. Let’s go back and continue our chat.”

Hongzhong didn’t even look at the pale-faced man as he turned and walked back with Lin Yi.”Brother Lin, don’t think that all the Hong Chamber of Commerce is so stupid. We’ve known each other for a few years, don’t just quit!”

If one were to say that the honorary Vice President position was a very high status for Lin Yi in the past, and he needed to work hard to maintain it, then it was completely reversed now. It was the Hong Chamber of Commerce’s honor to have a senior Alchemist like Lin Yi as the honorary Vice President. Not to mention impeaching Lin Yi, if he wanted to leave, the Hong Chamber of Commerce would probably do their best to keep him.

Lin Yi knew this, and Hong Zhong knew it even more clearly. Only an idiot like Wei Jiading would think of making Lin Yi move goods for him, even threatening them with impeaching Lin Yi. No one would believe that he didn’t want to bring down the Hong Chamber of Commerce!

Wei Jiading snorted coldly. He did not have the face to continue showing off his power here. With a gloomy face, he left the Hong Chamber of Commerce with his men and went directly to the dock to board the ship. As for the junk he had bought, it had already become real junk. He would probably only find out after returning to Nakajima and giving it away.

After returning upstairs, Lin Yi asked Hong Zhong if he’d seen the ghost cicada wings before, and it turned out that he hadn ‘t. The truly precious things here were indeed hard to find, and it was probably because of the low prices.

For example, the ghost cicada wings could only be sold for 50000 to 60000 spiritual jades on the North Island. If it were to be sold on the middle Island, it could be sold for at least 200000 to 300000 spiritual jades under normal circumstances. It might have broken a million spiritual jades in the last auction. The price of the northernmost Island would only be higher than that of the middle Island. This resulted in a situation where the good items would not be kept on the central, Western, and Northern islands.

Of course, there were opportunities to pick up things that weren’t available, but they were extremely rare. Lin Yi didn’t think that he’d be able to get what he wanted just by going out for a walk.

A while later, Shangguan LAN ‘er sent someone to inform Lin Yi that her grandfather didn’t allow her to go to the northernmost Island, and that she had to stay here with her future master. However, Shangguan Tianhua still valued Lin Yi very much, and told him to meet him once he returned from the northernmost Island.

Since Shangguan LAN ‘er couldn’t go with them, Lin Yi didn’t wait any longer. It was almost time for the fleet to set off again, and they said their goodbyes to Xiao ran and the others before returning to the ancient warship with Hong Zhong.

Ao Tianba greeted Lin Yi with a smile.”Little brother Lin, you’re back! Even manager Hong is here! I’ve already arranged your room, it’s not far from you, is that good enough?”

Hong Zhong smiled and cupped his fists.”Thank you, Captain ao Tian. This is exactly what I want!” We haven’t seen each other for a while, let’s go for a drink later!”

“No problem! I was just waiting for you to say that!” Ao Tianba laughed heartily. The two seemed to be on good terms-Lin Yi didn’t know if it was from the past or from the recent developments, but he was happy about it.

“Brother ao Tian, are you waiting for some important person to come?” Lin Yi asked casually. There were only a handful of people on the northern island who could make ao Tianba wait for them. Shangguan Tianhua probably wouldn’t come, or Shangguan LAN ‘er would’ve been able to come with them.

Ao Tianba shook his head and smiled.”No, I’m just waiting for you, brother Lin. Everyone on the ship will be here after we set sail today, so I’ll take the lead in holding a small trade fair tonight. It’ll be a warm-up for the auction on the northernmost Island. This is the Jade token for entry, if you’re interested, come over and take a look!”

“Brother ao Tian specially gave me a Jade token? You’re too polite!” Lin Yi said, surprised. He took the Jade token and thanked him. They could’ve just gotten someone to send the Jade token over, there was no need to wait for him to come back, right?

He knew about this small trade fair. The passengers on the ancient warship were either rich or powerful, so it was necessary to have a small trade before arriving at the northernmost Island. For one thing, it would give those who wanted to collect spirit Jade more time to prepare. For another, it would also consume the financial and material resources of some potential opponents in advance.

“I was afraid that I would forget about you if I got busy, so I decided to come out and catch some fresh air when I was free. I was waiting for you.” This Jade token can allow two people to enter the hall, so I won’t be giving little Wei’s one. However, you can’t save shopkeeper Hong’s one!”

Hong Zhong took the Jade token from ao Tianba and laughed,””Looking at your pained expression, is it because this Jade token is quite expensive?”

“Not really. It’s only ten thousand spiritual jades per piece. Those who can participate in the trade fair are all people of status. This little entrance fee is still required!” Ao Tianba didn’t hide it, he smiled and winked at Hong Zhong,””It’s just some pocket money. After all, I have to provide the venue and some food and drinks. Ten thousand spiritual Jade is really not expensive.”

“You profiteer, it’s a good thing you didn’t open a Chamber of Commerce to steal business. Otherwise, you’d really be a formidable enemy!” Hong Zhong laughed and joked a little, and the few of them walked in together.

Shang Yuhua bid farewell to the crowd and left first. This time, she had not been able to buy the Yang extreme grass on the North Island. She had to discuss with Shang Wanyi on how to solve Cai Zhongyang’s problem. After all, he had taken out the Yang extreme grass for them. They definitely could not burn the bridge after crossing the river.

Ao Tianba had a lot of things to prepare for the trade fair tonight, so he left after saying a few words to Lin Yi and Hong Zhong. Fortunately, it was late, and the trade fair was about to start. Lin Yi decided to wait at the venue with Hong Zhong and Wei shenjin.

Hou guanqi and Cai Zhongyang, naturally, had their own Jade tokens from ao Tianba as well, so Lin Yi didn’t have to worry about them. The two arrived a while later, and started chatting with hongzhong.

After a while, Shang Wanyi brought Shang Yuhua over. When he saw Cai Zhongyang, he came over immediately and said apologetically,””President Cai, I’m sorry. I didn’t manage to buy any yang extreme grass on the North Island this time. I’m really sorry to have caused you trouble. When we reach the northernmost Island, I’ll definitely help you explain, and I’ll bear all the subsequent losses. ”

“Chairman Shang, you don’t have to be so polite. We’re rivals in the business world, but we’re friends in private. You don’t have to take this to heart.” Cai Zhongyang smiled and waved his hand. Of course, he couldn’t really not care. However, since things had come to this, there was no point in saying more. He could only let go of his worries.

“President Cai, the more you put it that way, the more embarrassed I am!” Shang Wanyi said guiltily. If there’s any yang extreme grass in today’s trade fair, I’ll definitely get it at all costs!”
