Happy took a big circle in the depths of Shennonjia and led the Embroidered Uniform Guards into the territory of a few Blood Gibbon. Then, he imdiately activated his lightness skill and fled.

He ran from Shennongjia back to Baokang. Considering their abilities, the Embroidered Uniform Guards would not be able to catch up to him for at least two hours.

When he returned to Baokang County Town, Happy did not imdiately return to Baokang Restaurant. Instead, he went to the commission shop to put a request to buy information.

The treaty of the alliance between the five sects had been ford. Next, the second level of the mines in Shennongjia would definitely face a stable period of mining that would last for a very long ti. The drop rate for supre grade ores in the second level was very high, and if they managed to extract them quickly, it would be very beneficial for the future developnt and strengthening of Mu Clan.

However, berthierite was required to enter the second level, and the more people there were, the more berthierite was required.

During the early stages of the ga, the sects would not dare to sell berthierite because they wanted to get eight in a go. During the middle stages of the ga, they were worried that they would be targeted by the three great sects if they pushed the price of berthierite up to the millions. They were fearful and full of misgivings, but now that the five sects had monopolized the resources to the second level, they should lose hope in entering the second level and begin to sell their berthierite.

So it was about ti for berthierite to drop to the normal market price. Under the tacit agreent ford by the five sects, there was no possibility for berthierite to experience an inflation.

Happy released the news that he wanted to buy a large number of berthierite, and for the ti being, he set the price for one berthierite at one hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver.

His price was still slightly higher than the normal market price. During normal tis, the price for berthierite was below one hundred thousand taels of silver.

“Bought one berthierite!”

“Bought three berthierite!”

“Bought four berthierite!”

“Bought seven berthierite!”

Happy had just released the news and was browsing through the other useful information in the commission shop when a row of system notifications telling him that the trade was successful rose in his ears.

In less than ten minutes, the three million taels of silver crumbs he put in the commission shop was gone. The commission shop automatically took down Happy’s ssage of buying berthierite and transferred twenty berthierite into his inventory.

Soon after, a few lines of information quickly appeared on the first page of the commission shop in a very eye-catching manner.

[Selling berthierite for one hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver each. Those who require a large amount, please contact . A discount will be given. I am Kind Tycoon.]

Happy was rendered speechless for a long ti.

Then, he quickly realized that he had done sothing stupid.

‘rchants!’

Even though the price for berthierite was very expensive in Baokang County Town, that did not an that the other areas would sell them at such an expensive price. There would only be a market for these products if there was a need for them. During the early stages of the ga, everyone competed for berthierite, and soone would have definitely seized the chance to store up on it. However, not even Beautiful Robes Faction had thought about buying the precious berthierite through the commission shop.

But rchants could determine the real value of berthierite through the output of the ore and the need for it.

One hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver was clearly a very good price. Hence, a few notifications shot up in the commission shop to compete against each other, and it made Happy smile wryly.

He contacted a few people.

But those people remained silent for a long while!

[Happy?]

A ssenger pigeon returned to him, and there was a very uncertain tone to the letter.

Happy felt speechless.

The second ssenger pigeon quickly arrived then.

[Boss Happy, if you’re buying, how does one hundred and twenty thousand taels of silver per piece sound? How many do you want?]

When Happy saw that ssage, he did not reply to it.

When he sent the ssages to those people, he made it very clear that he would buy berthierite at the lowest price. The seller was to set the price, and if the price was not low enough, he would not reply to the ssage.

*****

“Happy! It’s actually Happy! What the heck?!”

Strange cackles ca from within a shop in a city. Soon though, they turned into upset murmurs. “Damn it, I didn’t receive any reply for another price. Am I blacklisted? Argh, I cannot let this happen. One hundred and twenty thousand taels of silver... Oh well, he’s an idol, s, let’s lower the price a bit... One hundred thousand taels of silver?”

“One hundred thousand taels of silver? Boss, that’s the purchasing price,” a shop assistant beside him reminded him.

The person glared at him with a strange look. “What would you know?”

He sent another ssenger pigeon, but even after a long ti, there was no reply.

The young rchant was instantly dumbfounded.

He pulled up the notification log from the commission shop in his shop, and he quickly noticed that there were plenty of notifications that had been changed to sothing like:

[Selling berthierite in bulk for one hundred thousand taels of silver each. Only for Happy!]

[Boss Happy, I’ll sell my berthierite for ninety thousand taels of silver each. I have thirty of them with . I hope that we can have a chance to work together!]

[Boss Happy, I’ll sell mine for seventy thousand taels of silver each. I hope that we can work together. I have as many berthierite as you want...]

The notifications on the commission shop were each more domineering than the last.

The young rchant was completely speechless.

‘Seventy thousand taels of silver...’

That had to be a rchant who had his own mining team. Otherwise, the purchasing price for berthierite alone was enough to make a middle-level rchant go bankrupt. Everyone was clearly okay with losing money in their business just so that they could form a business relationship with Happy.

The shop assistant’s eyes glazed over for a long ti. He gulped laboriously after so ti.

“I really don’t understand it.”

*****

Happy also noticed the incredibly domineering notification in the commission shop that had drowned out countless other rchants.

‘Seventy thousand taels of silver... Berthierite was never sold at this price even when it was sold at the lowest price in my previous life.’

But Happy did not choose that person because of the price. Instead, he was intrigued by the rchant ntioning that he had as many berthierite as Happy wanted.

The drop rate for berthierite was very low. Even when soone monopolized berthierite, they would need to accumulate it for a long ti before they could have a ton of it. He doubted whether that person truly had as many berthierite as he needed.

[How many berthierite do you have?]

The ssenger disappeared into the horizon after it flew out of the commission shop.

Kind Tycoon replied very quickly. [I currently have more than two hundred of them. Boss Happy, how many do you want?]

Happy was shocked.

However, if the rchant had decided to give him such a huge discount when the market price for berthierite was at one hundred thousand taels of silver, it was clear that he wanted to form a business relationship with him. Happy pondered it for a mont before he replied.

[I’ll buy them for seventy thousand taels of silver each, and I’ll buy however many you decide to sell to . What do you want from ?]

[You sure are straightforward! I hope that you can sell all your goods from the royal mausoleum. We can sign a business deal in which you provide with at least fifty masterpieces a month. What do you think?]

Happy smiled. [Fifty masterpieces? Your figures are pretty accurate. But you should know that there aren’t many who dare to challenge the second level of the royal mausoleum right now, and there are practically none who can survive it. Yet there are very few places with as high of a drop rate as the royal mausoleum.]

Kind Tycoon was quick to reply. [I’m confident in you, Boss Happy. Besides, you’re the only person who has been chased by Ninja King in the second level and survived it.]

[Can we switch to another term?]

[Sure, but I’d like you to take a look at sothing I have. I’ve already put it on the commission shop.]

‘What?’

Happy frowned and cast a glance at the notification list on the commission shop. It suddenly changed, and an astonishing red notification jumped into his field of vision.

[Three-echelon high-grade masterpiece! Not for sale!]

When he saw the first three words, Happy’s heart clenched tightly. He swept a glance over the attributes of the sword, and the shock in his eyes beca even greater.

A sword that had purple, red, and blue halos surrounding it lay quietly on the information bar in the commission shop. Light flowed around it, and the presence it exuded was so great that even so of the divine weapons would lose to it!

[Clear Abyss: Grade two masterpiece. Refined three tis!

[Increases 1,000 damage.
