Chapter 018 The Heavenly River Emperor
Chapter 018 The Heavenly River Emperor
Despite his large, fat belly, Big Dealer was a shrewd man. After taking 10 gold coins from Li Hanqiang, he bought 40 bottles of basic invigorating potions.
"Selling potions only takes me twenty minutes, and I can also contact a tycoon while I'm at it. In an hour at most, I can get him here for you. And if you make a fortune, don't forget to give me a share!"
Li Hanqiang said, "You can go without worry."
"Let's go!" Big Buyer flashed with light and teleported away.
At this moment, Li Hanqiang's chat channel was bustling with activity.
Who wouldn't want an elite-template mount?
Dark Night Redemption, Fan Knight, and Ignition Sword Saint frantically asked Li Hanqiang where he got the Blackthorn Baby Turtle.
The Wind Knight was the most excited and kept sending messages to Li Hanqiang.
He was a knight, and what he wanted most was a mount.
"What kind of knight doesn't have a mount? Lord, you're my own brother, how about I have this Blackthorn Baby Turtle?" Fan Knight sent another message.
"Oh no!" Li Hanqiang was no pushover. He thought to himself that the Wind Rider might be cursing him. How could he give him the Blackthorn Baby Turtle?
He replied definitively, "It'll be auctioned off immediately. Maybe you can bid! By the way, are you bidding on your [Shadow Charge]? If so, let's bid together, and I'll help you get a good price."
"No!" Fan Knight was terrified. He and his entire guild, who were just watching the show, were now focused on spending money, hoping to redeem the [Shadow Charge] skill book as soon as possible. If Li Hanqiang auctioned it off, wouldn't he lose a fortune?
"Sigh, I really shouldn't have mortgaged the skill book to him in the first place. That idiot city lord might not be reliable." Fan Knight was in a state of panic and could only send a message to Li Hanqiang in the chat channel: "Brother, if you auction it off, I'll fight you to the death."
"Haha, I, the invincible city lord, am not afraid of you!" Li Hanqiang was just joking. He would never do such a despicable thing, but he was capable of tricking the three Dark Night Redemption into buying another ticket.
He created a group chat channel and invited Dark Night Redemption and Fanning the Flames to join. He posted a message: "All three of you, buy a ticket and come support me. This city lord has prepared a surprise for you. There's something good going on, and you won't regret coming."
"Ignition Sword Saint: Easier said than done, where am I going to get the gold coins to buy tickets!"
"Fan Knight: Holy crap!"
"Dark Night Redemption: I'm not going. I've been grinding since the server started, for fourteen or fifteen hours. I can't take it anymore, I should log off."
Li Hanqiang: Then you're going to miss out on a great opportunity, and you'll definitely regret it later.
"Dark Night Redemption: We'll talk about that later, bye everyone!"
Dark Night Redemption has been taken offline.
Li Hanqiang shook his head repeatedly and then posted a message: "Stirring things up, aren't you guys in a big city with that Emperor Guild? Help me get a GG and see if the Emperor Guild is interested in buying Blackthorn Baby Turtles and bring over a few rich guys."
"Ignition Sword Saint: We're going to fight Emperor the moment we see him."
"Fan Knight: Stop talking, it's all the woman's fault..."
While Li Hanqiang was chatting idly, his business was in full swing.
The major city in the region he was in was called Linghai City. As soon as he returned to the city, he ran out of the city without stopping, and it took him a full fifteen minutes to reach a valley.
This valley is a leveling area, and there is a small dungeon called [Hunter's Camp]. A super guild controls this dungeon. This super guild is powerful. It is called Tianhe. It is one of the top ten guilds in the country. It is far superior to second-rate guilds like Dihao Guild.
The target of the big business was the Tianhe Guild. As far as he knew, the guild leader was a knight nicknamed "Emperor Tianhe". The big business had seen him once before at the entrance of the hunter camp.
Upon reaching the entrance to the hunter's camp, Big Buyer didn't say a word and simply posted the Blackthorn Baby Turtle's attribute information.
Immediately, a group of players were attracted over.
"Blackthorn Baby Turtle, a mount based on an elite monster template!"
"Really?"
"Hey fat guy, what do you mean by this?"
"Dude, where did you get this attribute information from?"
"What an amazing mount..."
Discussions immediately broke out.
The big seller, unhurried and calm, addressed the chattering players, saying leisurely, "Friends, let's start by boycotting unscrupulous merchants. To help everyone level up more efficiently and save time going back to town to buy potions, I've brought you basic health potions, basic mana potions, and basic energizing potions. The prices are the same as in the town's general store. Quantities are limited, so first come, first served!"
"What? The price is the same as in the general store? Is this fat guy doing charity work?"
"Are there really such idiots??"
Amidst a chorus of doubts, Da Mai sold all the potions he had in just three minutes, earning over 43 gold coins.
Many players from the Holy Temple Guild and the Heavenly River Guild were also attracted over. They were the ones who were waiting for the big deal, and they posted the attribute information of the Blackthorn Baby Turtle again.
He firmly believed that once the Heavenly River Emperor learned of this black-spined baby turtle, he would definitely be tempted...
Li Hanqiang was idly strolling around his own Chaos City with his Blackthorn Baby Tortoise. With his silver tongue, he had successfully lured the two hotheads to come here.
These two were quite frustrated, as they had worked so hard to earn some gold coins, only to use them all to buy teleportation tickets.
But they dared not not come, especially the Fan Knight, whose [Shadow Charge Skill Book] was entrusted to Li Hanqiang, fearing something might go wrong.
Suddenly, the spacetime wormhole opened, and Big Buy laughed heartily, appearing with a full twenty people.
Li Hanqiang was overjoyed. He had easily earned the money for 21 tickets, which was 10 gold and 50 silver coins. It couldn't have been easier.
"Welcome, welcome!" Li Hanqiang rode the Blackthorn Baby Turtle to greet them. The person at the front had sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, and was quite handsome. He was also wearing a set of silver armor, which made him quite eye-catching.
"Huh? You are...?" He felt that this person looked familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before. Suddenly, he slapped his forehead and remembered!
Isn't he the president of the Tianhe Guild? He's practically a public figure, frequently appearing online.
"Wow, this is a great deal! They've brought all these celebrities here! But it seems like they're all in cahoots. Are there no competitors?" Li Hanqiang pondered to himself.
Emperor Tianhe and the others all focused their attention on Li Hanqiang's lower body, their expressions strange. Their feelings were similar to those of the Big Merchant when he first saw the Blackthorn Baby Turtle; they wished they could kick Li Hanqiang away.
"It really is a Blackthorn Baby Tortoise!" Emperor Tianhe smiled and nodded gently. He glanced at Li Hanqiang and said directly, "100 gold coins or 30,000 in cash. You choose."
"That's really straightforward!" Li Hanqiang thought to himself, "A big shot is a big shot, his offer is quite impressive." However, the price was clearly not enough to satisfy him.
Li Hanqiang winked at the fan-wielding knight.
The Fan Knight understood, stepped forward, and burst into laughter: "Hahaha, you think you can buy such a top-quality mount for 100 gold coins? No way! I'll offer 120 gold coins!"
