When it was time to close the shop, Jiang Chen told the customers since the quantity of Doctrine Artifacts was limited, he would only sell them to proper customers . For example, he would not recommend a knife to a swordsman .
As to the quantity, he would sell three pieces every day . And he did not accept reservations . In fact, the Doctrine Artifacts Jiang Chen had could have even allowed him to build an arsenal . He had gotten all of them from the Heavenly Palace by defeating the divine soldiers and divine generals . The Doctrine Artifacts assumed a normal look after being processed by Jiang Chen .
In the evening, when Jiang Chen was about to leave, a staff member of the Yunzhen Chamber of Commerce came to visit him . It was the woman who had helped Jiang Chen register his shop the previous day . “Master, our president wants to see you . ” The woman addressed him in a different way . She was quite warm to him . The Sundry Goods Store that had not looked so good to her had gone beyond her expectations . She had never thought it would have been such a big hit .
At the same time, since she was in charge of Jiang Chen’s shop, she had gained lots of benefits too . If she could be close to this master, maybe her life would change . Running her fingers through her hair, she looked attractive and coquettish .
Fame and benefits . Jiang Chen could not help but think of this when he saw the way in which she behaved .
“Your president wants to see me?” Jiang Chen asked .
“Yes . The president won’t see just anyone . Only owners of the top ten most profitable shops will get the chance to meet him,” the woman replied .
The Yunzhen Chamber of Commerce was in a high position . There was much to gain and nothing to lose to know their president .
“Show me the way,” Jiang Chen said .
“Master, I’m Shi Xian . If you need anything, just ask me . ” The woman said in a flirtatious tone while leading the way . It was a double-edged remark .
She was kind of pretty, but Jiang Chen was not so low as to take advantage of her . Seeing the master’s reaction, Shi Xian felt anxious and helpless .
Soon, Jiang Chen came to the interior of the chamber of commerce . It was an extremely luxurious big square . The rents here were also extremely high . Then Jiang Chen came to the top floor of the building on the square . After going down a long passage, he found himself standing in front of a door . Two men were standing outside of the door, as straight as arrows .
Star Venerables at the peak? Jiang Chen was shocked . The president’s doorkeepers were Star Venerables at the peak . He must be really great .
Walking in the door, Jiang Chen saw the president sitting behind a long table . He was an elegant middle-aged man, smartly dressed, refined, but also majestic-looking . His square face looked tough and resolute . Greeting Jiang Chen warmly, he said his name was Xie Yu .
“Master Luo, you’re much younger than I thought,” President Xie Yu said in a friendly tone .
Jiang Chen was currently called Luo Cheng . That was why the president was calling him Master Luo .
“President Xie . ”
“Master Luo, your shop has amazed us . ”
Xie Yu said, “There are not many Doctrine Artifacts in the world, and you are offering three pieces every day . That’s really impressive . The thing is, if you continue doing this, the market will be badly influenced and your business will become less profitable . Why don’t you give them to us to put them under the hammer?”
He stopped briefly . Then he continued, “Or can you keep building Doctrine Artifacts?”
“Three pieces a day, it won’t take long to sell them out . As to auction, I’ve never thought about that . ” Jiang Chen knew the president was sounding him out . “This time I came here…I opened the shop here…” Jiang Chen pretended he had said something he should not say . Then he hurried to correct himself, “I opened the shop here to network and gain fame . If I hadn’t done that, President Xie, you wouldn’t have met me here . ”
“That’s true . Master, do you mean you’ll keep running the shop in our chamber of commerce?”
“Yes . ” Throwing President Xie a glance, Jiang Chen said, “Am I not welcome here in the Yunzhen Chamber of Commerce?”
“Of course you are! Of course, we want talented people like you to run shops in our chamber of commerce . Master, you are such a genius . We certainly won’t slight you . If we only offered you average conditions, I would be considered incompetent at my job . ”
It turned out that Xie Yu intended to promise him some benefits so he would keep running his shop in the chamber of commerce . He told Jiang Chen to move the shop to the interior of the chamber of commerce . At the same time, Jiang Chen would enjoy the unique Master Card of the Yunzhen Chamber of Commerce . Jiang Chen became famous in only one day .
“Master, are you a newcomer in the Sky Reaching City?”
“Yes . ”
“Maybe my daughter can show you around so you can know the city better . You are about the same age . I believe there are many things you can talk about . What do you think?” Xie Yu said .
“Thank you very much, President . And I need some materials . I hope the chamber of commerce can help me with that . ”
“Just tell me, Master,” Xie Yu said generously, as if there was nothing that he could not find .
Jiang Chen mentioned lots of things that were actually not so important . When it was about time to go, he said, “And Ice Soul Stone . ”
“Ice Soul Stone? Master, it doesn’t exist in the world anymore . ” Xie Yu seemed to be surprised .
“Before the reappearance of those races, didn’t we also think the formula of immortal elixir had been lost?” Jiang Chen said .
“That’s true . I’ll ask my staff to pay attention to that . ”
Jiang Chen stood up to say good-bye when they had talked about everything they wanted to talk about . Not long after he had left, some chairs in the room turned around automatically . The projections of the top management of the Yunzhen Chamber of Commerce were sitting in the chairs .
“What do you think?”
“This man is very ambitious and very talented too . He will do us at the Yunzhen Chamber of Commerce much good . ”
“He knows his own mind . We can’t use him . ”
“So, we’ll simply collaborate with him . ”
“Yes . ”
Jiang Chen arrived at an airship to meet the president’s daughter .
“You are Master Luo . We are impressed that you achieved such a result in only one day . ”
The daughter of President Xie was very hot . She was quite open to people . It was easy to make friends with her . She was very different from her courteous father .
“Nice to meet you, Miss Xie,” Jiang Chen said politely .
He turns out to be a silent man . Xie Ting was kind of disappointed . She had thought Jiang Chen was a young master . But it turned out all masters behaved in the same way . It was not about age .
“Are there any places you want to go? I’ll take you wherever you want to go . ”
“I came to the Sky Reaching City not long ago . I know nothing about the city yet . ” Jiang Chen told her anywhere would be fine for him .
“So, let’s go to the Extreme Doctrine Martial Arts Club . It’s a must-go in this city in the evening,” Xie Ting said .
Jiang Chen was shocked . He thought what a coincidence that was . That was where his practicing body was .
Noticing Jiang Chen’s reaction, Xie Ting thought it was because he did not like the smell of blood . As a result, Miss Xie thought less of him .
Although the master was in a high position and his talent was admired, he had got such treatment thanks to the paramount power of martial arts . Otherwise, everyone would have chosen to be alchemists . Not so many people would have been risking their lives to practice . But Jiang Chen did not say no .
“Master, do you mind if I invite some friends?” Xie Ting said before leaving .
“No, certainly not . ”
“Okay . ” In Xie Ting’s eyes, this master was quite easy-going and decisive . Jiang Chen saw her friends in the Extreme Doctrine Martial Arts Club . It was quite a coincidence that Lin Shuangyue was among them . They had just met during the day . And he found Ai Liang from the Thunder God Sect was also outside the martial arts club .
