As a gentle golden light flashed, the [Gold Contract] automatically split into two in Wang Xiao’s hand.
Shen Tianlin reached out and took one of them. He put it into his territory without even looking at it. Then, he handed the crystal badge to Wang Xiao. “The contract is signed. Take the goods.”
“Thank you, Minister Shen!”
Wang Xiao thanked him and took the badge. He suddenly realized that this badge was actually heavier than he had imagined. It was as heavy as iron in his hand.
To his surprise, Wang Xiao subconsciously took a few more glances. At first, he thought that this item was made of mithril. Now that he held it in his hand and looked at it carefully, he realized that the main body of the badge was actually a metal he did not recognize.
“As expected of the Lord’s Shop. There are really many strange things...”
Wang Xiao muttered and came back to his senses. He was about to ask where to return it after collecting the goods when he looked up and realized that Shen Tianlin had already left. Trace the roots of this material to novelb!n•
“He seemed upset when he left.”
Zhou Xiruo went to Wang Xiao’s side and whispered, “Will we offend the Lord’s
Shop because of this?”
“Don’t worry, the Lord’s Shop isn’t that stingy.”
Wang Xiao sneered and did not care. Although Liu Yingying’s “killing someone with a borrowed knife” move could be said to be sinister, Liu Yunsheng was not a fool.
Realizing that his granddaughter had run away from home, Liu Yunsheng was anxious and worried, but he would probably recover in a few days.
After briefly explaining to Zhou Xiruo what was going on, the two of them arrived at the office of the person in charge of the storage area. As soon as Shen Tianlin’s crystal badge appeared, the other party immediately got someone to prepare the corresponding resources.
After about ten minutes, two metal boxes, one big and one small, were sent over.
“Lord Wang, these are the resources you need.”
The person-in-charge pointed at the large metal box and said. He paused for a moment before pointing at the small metal box. “This is a gift from Minister
Shen.”
“The Lord’s Shop values integrity the most. There won’t be anything lacking.”
Wang Xiao casually put the list aside and looked at the person in charge of the storage department. “Am I right?”
“Lord Wang, you’re too kind. This batch of resources is huge. It’s only right for you to check it in person.”
The person-in-charge smiled. Although he suggested that the two of them check things clearly in person, the expression on his face showed that he was clearly very pleased with Wang Xiao’s words.
After a pause, the person-in-charge asked, “By the way, how are you planning to take away this batch of resources?”
Zhou Xiruo was stunned. “Can’t we just put them into the territory? It’s only a few hundred resource balls. Our territory warehouse can accommodate them.”
“I know you can do that, but...’
The person-in-charge revealed a troubled expression. “These resource balls are not in the category of goods, so... so...”
“So you can’t let us take them away, right?”
Wang Xiao said the second half of the sentence for the other party.
The person-in-charge smiled dryly and nodded. Then, he rubbed his fingers suggestively. “Or you can buy this batch of resource balls. For the sake of Minister Shen, I can give you a discount.”
I’ll think about it.’
Wang Xiao hesitated for a moment and smiled awkwardly. He did not consider the suggestion of the person in charge. Firstly, it was useless for him to ask for so many resource balls, and secondly, he was short of money.
As there were so many purple quality resource balls, no matter how good the discount was, it would still be hundreds of thousands. However, in order to facilitate this transaction, Wang Xiao had almost taken out all his assets. Now, he could not even take out dozens of star coins...
It was a rich man’s world and life was difficult for the poor.
Wang Xiao pondered for a long time before saying, “I’ll level up here directly. Can you help me prepare a room?”
“No way!”
Zhou Xiruo hurriedly refused without waiting for the person-in-charge to express his opinion. She went to Wang Xiao’s side and whispered, “We can’t be disturbed during the upgrade of the [Lord Core]. I’m worried about outsiders.” “I’m also worried, but I have no choice...
Wang Xiao spread his hands helplessly. ‘We still have a lot of things in our warehouse. We can’t fit this batch of resources. We can only collect them in batches and use them in upgrading our level. Otherwise, we won’t be able to take them away at all...”
Before he could finish speaking, Wang Xiao suddenly thought of something and his eyes lit up.. “I have an idea!”
