Chapter 107: Cooperation (2)
On the back, both Lin Yun and Wenren Yu also didn't know what to say. Lin Yun clearly have never heard about Communication Jade before much less using it. As for Wenren Yu, he had heard about it before, but his own had been destroyed when he escaped from his pursuer back then.
It might have been destroyed by those who found it since it can also be used to trace people if they were skilled enough in some arts.
However, Zhongsun Shan didn't make things difficult and immediately procure a new communication jade and handed it directly to Lin Xiao. "Treat this as present from the cooperation with Yue Yi Auction House, Mister Lin."
"Thank you."
Not bothering to keep with the appearance, Lin Xiao chose to just accept the communication jade. In any case, he was truly someone who was new to many things in the cultivation world.
Despite already cultivating since he was young, Lin Xiao knew that his knowledge and worldview were limited to the fact that the was staying in the remote village that didn't have many access to the outside world. Elder Wang couldn't teach him everything and only imparted those most important for business.
Taking the Communication Jade, Lin Xiao was a bit loss about how to use it. He glanced at Wenren Yu, who gave him signal to infuse his Qi. Almost immediately, Lin Xiao quickly infused his Qi into the communication jade.
This action bound the communication jade with his consciousness.
"I'll try to call you, Mister Lin." Zhongsun Shan then proceeded to link the two communication jade then told Lin Xiao that they would be able to sense each other through the energy that was transmitted with this device.
Lin Xiao nodded. His eyes were looking at the Communication jade in his hand as he pondered. If he had to say for sure, he was not totally sure how this device used, but he thought that it would be better to ask Wenren Yu later.
If he acted like he didn't know how to use this Communication Jade in front of these people, he was sure that his younger brother would not only jab him, but also stab him with a sword.
They needed to keep up with the impression right now.
"Also, is there anything you would like to buy, Mister Lin?" Manager Du asked out of politeness when he noticed that Lin Xiao had done testing with the new Communication Jade. In his mind, he just simply though that Lin Xiao lost his when he was on the way because there has been some case when one got attacked when they were having a communication with someone.
Because they were distracted, their Communication Jade was lost in the battle and those people usually ended up buying more. In any case, it was not that expensive as long as it was not bound yet.
Lin Xiao was about to say that there was none when he recalled that his weapon was still nothing more than the wooden sword. Elder Wang was stingy and didn't give him any notable sword, telling him that he had to find one by himself. No matter what Lin Xiao said, Elder Wang didn't want to give him one.
This earned him the impression that he was truly a miser merchant.
Little did he know that all the swords in Elder Wang's possessions were all too eye catching. As someone with high position, Elder Wang naturally would not keep ordinary sword around. It resulted in him only having swords that would not fit Lin Xiao should Lin Xiao kept his identity low.
Any of the sword in Elder Wang's possession would make everyone's eyes directed at Lin Xiao, so it was very unsuitable.
"I would like to buy sword, but if there's none here, you may direct me to the Weapon Store," Lin Xiao replied.
"There are a few good swords here," Manager Du replied hurriedly. In fact, there were a lot of weapons. Many of which had lower grade than what their usual auction standard were, so he hadn't auctioned them yet and only placed them in this small store. "If you wish for those that are not too expensive, you can see at the store. While those at better quality will be at the back."
"How about the price."
"We'll only charge between 100 gold coins to 1000 gold coins."
At that moment, Lin Xiao felt like he was about to vomit blood. For someone like him who could only earn a few silver coins in the past, the price was simply too painful. It would be much better for him to fight against his opponent rather than thinking for a method to come up with a whopping 100 golds.
Even if he had to calculate what he had from his Spatial Ring, Lin Xiao knew that he wouldn't be able to afford the expensive one.
Hmm, it seemed that he just had to make do with some meagre weapon. At the very least, he needed a sword so that he could use his sword skill and deal with his enemies. Without a proper sword, he knew that there were a skill that he would be unable to use.
"Can I see it?"
"Of course. Zhongsun Shan."
"Yes, Sir. Please follow me, Mister Lin."
They all returned back to the store. Manager Du still stayed within the room to deal with Night Yin Flower and Zhongsun Shan pointed at the area where the weapon was stored. While the quality of the swords sold outside was not too good, but it was not as expensive as those inside.
However, Lin Xiao still felt his heart bleeding when he saw the price of the weapons.
400 gold coins.
480 gold coins.
360 gold coins.
As he browsed the weapons that was located at the counter, Lin Xiao was astonished to see that even the cheapest was over 100 gold coins. The manager truly didn't lie when he said that the items here were expensive.
