Leo handed over the expert appraiser certificate to Alan and said
Leo: "Young man I apologize, as you can only guess just how bizarre a 16-year-old expert appraiser is.
Alan: "It is not a problem, because I believe if I were in your shoes, I would have felt the sa."
Leo: "I will allow you to take a look at the object; here it is, inside this box."
Alan looked inside the box, and a string of information reflected in his view.
Na: [stalactites shred]
Class: [6th class]
Description: [A shard of a sharp icicle-like formation hanging from the ceiling of an ice cave, ford from a condensed amount of ice type Ena, also known as the natural ice spear, usually found in the ice caves of a 9th-grade creature of the ice attribute and higher, can be used as a core for many types of ice formation; it can also be forged into a weapon, an extrely valuable natural resource.]
Alan carefully examined the icicle inside the box.
After a few minutes he could only sigh…
Alan: "Sir Leo, can you please tell where you found it? I can't tell much about it other than it being an ice-type treasure attribute in a very condensed form. As for the class, I can't be exactly sure."
Leo: "I found this treasure inside a third-class secret realm, about 1000 km to the north of Howler Town."
Alan: "Can I ask you sothing? And I hope I won't offend you"
Leo: "Go ahead, young man, you have earned that much."
Alan: "Why did you co to a small town like ours to appraise this treasure? As a high-class beast tar, you must know that in this small town, beast tars such as yourself are as rare as a Phoenix feather, and you seem in an urgent need to sell this treasure. May I ask why?"
Leo: "The nearest town to the secret realm was your town, and I am indeed in urgent need of money, as there is a specific type of resource that I want to buy in an auction on the ethernet that takes place tomorrow. At first, I thought that with the evolution master association branch here in this town, there was no need to worry, as they could identify this treasure and put a price on it, but I wasn't lucky enough to find soone who could appraise this treasure; those who could were either busy or not in town at the mont, so I can only look for the biggest chamber of comrce inside this town."
Alan: "Sir Leo, first I would like to apologize for the inconvenience that you have faced here in our chamber of comrce and for the attitude of one of the junior staff. Second, we will buy this treasure at your ntioned price as an apology to your esteed self, and I hope that this experience does not cloud your judgnt in the Blue River Chamber of Comrce in the future."
Leo: "Are you sure about that? This treasure was taken from a third-class secret realm. Even if I sold it in a hurry, it would have netted at least 15 million federation dollars, and if I put it to auction, I would have gotten more."
Alan: "Please consider this as our apology to your esteed self; we will buy this treasure of your hand for 25 million federation dollars. We just hope that you look past our oversight and please consider doing business with us in the future."
The mont Mr. Jan heard what Alan had said
His expression changed as he looked at Alan with confusion.
Alan And I looked back at Mr. Jan and smiled.
Alan: "Although I am just an employee here, with and Mr. Jan, we have this little bit of face here, so please accept our apology."
Leo smiled, and he thought that this young man knows how to handle himself in society. He knows when to fall back and when to advance. In all honesty, such an unknown treasure would at most have gotten him 20 million federation dollars, so when he heard Alan offering a compensation to buy it off his hand for 25 million federation dollars, he was extrely pleased on the inside.
Leo: "You really understand the word of adults better than many would ever do. Of course, you will make my life much easier if you take it out of my hand at the 25 million federation dollars, but are you sure that you can have the final say in this matter? After all, it's not a small amount of money that you are talking about."
Just as Sir Leo said this, Carla, who has watched the entire charade, ca into the conversation.
Carla "Of course Alan can decide on the compensation; after all, he is our brightest appraiser. My na is Carla, and I am the president of this branch of the Blue River Chamber of Comrce. I also would like to apologize to your esteed self, Mr. Leo; my assistant Laura will take you to the accounting departnt to transfer the 25 million, and I hope that you will grace us with more business in the future and not let this incident affect our future transactions."
Leo, who smiled almost broke his face, said
Leo: "Your repetition as a righteous rchant has been and will always be the bond of your word. Do not worry, president, as this will not affect our business relationship in the future, and it's all thanks to this bright young man."
Laura: "Sir Leo, would you mind coming with to transfer the money and finalize the transaction?"
Leo: "Lead the way."
After Leo and Laura got back to the building.
Carla looked at Alan with extre curiosity in her eyes.
Mr. Jan: "Alan, you should not have bought this unknown object; just because he's a high-class beast tar doesn't an that he can intimidate us to buy from him at any price he pleases."
Alan: "Oh Mr. Jan, I would very much like to be intimidated every ti like this one."
With a teasing smile on his face, Alan answered Mr. Jan.
Mr. Jan, who saw Alan smiling, imdiately felt that sothing was off.
Carla "That's my little brother, behind his smile that is always a terrifying plot. Now how about you tell big sister because she can't wait anymore?"
Alan: "There is actually nothing much; at first, when I ca here, I wanted to appraise this treasure and diffuse the situation, but for him, a high-class beast tar, to release his aura and intimidate us weak juniors in such a disgraceful manner that is not befitting of his status, so I just gave him what he wants and let him be happy while we sample the actual happiness."
Carla's eyes sparkled with devious interest, and she said,.
Carla: "Don't keep in suspense, little brother; I want to know more."
Alan: "Actually, I already appraised the treasure; it is a 6th class treasure nad stalactites shred, otherwise known as the natural ice spear. As our estimate client wanted to get rid of his own treasure as fast as possible, I thought that we could take the burden off his hands."
Mr. Jan Lawrence and Jaden, alongside President Carla, all were shocked to the core.
Carla: "Hahahahahah, indeed, my little brother is a Black-bellied and vengeful person. Big sister likes you more and more every day, and you are right: our Blue River chamber of comrce does not fear any high-class beast tar."
Mr. Jan: "Sixth class natural treasure! I can't believe it."
Carla: "You have to believe it. My little brother is the foremost example for us rchants: buy cheap, sell high.He's just adhering to one of the most fundantal principles of our occupation."
Clara was bubbling inside with happiness as she could not believe that Alan had spent 25 million federation dollars and bought a resource that could fundantally be sold for a hundred-plus million federation dollars.
Carla: "Little brother, after we sell the treasure, you will beco richer and richer. As a rich young man, you should spoil your big sister. When are you going to invite for a al?"
The smile on Alan's face cracked as he looked at his alluring and beautiful boss, who was as much black-bellied as him.
Alan: "I actually have one more surprise for big sis. It may not be an invitation for dinner, but it might be just as good."
Carla, who was already pleased, looked at Alan with a curious light reflecting in her beautiful eyes.
Alan "big sis I have finished appraising all the 40 objects inside the warehouse. I was just about to call you so we can confirm and finish the process. Oh, by the way, I have found sothing amazing inside you would definitely want to take a look.
The mont Carla heard what Alan said, she imdiately replied.
Carla: "Then what are you waiting for? Let's go inside quickly. I already have the reports written by our supplier when they appraised the treasures before sending them to us, so let's compare them with your appraising result."
On the side, Mr. Jan, Lawrence, and Jaden were shocked to the core when they heard that Alan had already finished appraising more than 40 objects.
Mr. Jan knew that the president called Alan today to start appraising these treasures, but Alan said that he had already finished; in a few hours he had finished a workload that would have taken him a week or two at least.
Watching Alan and Carla enter the warehouse, he imdiately looked at Lawrence and said
Mr. Jan, "I do not care about your noble lineage or who supports you and gave you this job. This is your last mistake." If I ever hear that you run your foul mouth again or make any mistake in the foreseeable future, you will be fired. If it weren't for Alan, then you might have already been fired.
Lawrence couldn't speak as he listened with a black face and an angry belly.
Mr. Jan imdiately followed behind Carla and Alan; Jaden, who saw this, followed after.
