“Young Flag Master, wouldn’t you like to buy one?
This Vajra Puppet is only one million two hundred thousand taels of Demon Silver.”
A handso man clad in a scholar’s robe was vigorously slapping a nine-foot-tall, burly, and muscular full-tal humanoid puppet clad in iron armor, producing a resounding clang.
The handso man’s voice was enticing, “Its combat power is that of a lower Fifth Grade!
I guarantee it’s a genuine Fifth Grade, its combat strength only slightly inferior to your Commander Sheen Zhou by two lines.
Young Flag Master Chu, for just one million two hundred thousand taels of Demon Silver, you can own a loyal and hardworking Fifth Grade master!
“What Iron Banner Gang lacks now are independent Fifth Grade masters, and you currently are not short of money.
I know that just tonight, you have robbed at least one million six hundred thousand taels of Demon Silver, not to ntion countless other materials.
I predict you will rob even more in a few days.”
Chu Xisheng, arms crossed, watched the middle-aged scholar emotionlessly, “I’ll say it again, I’m not interested in your stuff.
Everyone knows the tricks of Divine Machine Sect, Mr.
Zhong, there’s no need to waste words.
I only want repeating heavy crossbows, Scorpion Crossbows, ‘Immortal Tribulation,’ and if you have Rune Heavy Arrows, I’m also interested in buying a large quantity, cash transactions.”
The business logic of the Divine Machine Sect wasn’t much different from those modern enterprises.
One million two hundred thousand taels of Demon Silver for a lower Fifth Grade master seed a very good deal.
However, the reputation of Divine Machine Sect’s ‘Vajra Puppets’ was not good; components would get damaged as soon as they fought.
Even without fighting, problems would arise after three months.
Then, repairs would be a massive hassle, and to prevent the one million two hundred thousand taels of Demon Silver from being wasted, buyers had to let them be exploited.
They not only had to hire people for repairs but also had to purchase various expensive components.
What he truly needed now were military heavy crossbows that could allow ordinary Martial Cultivators to contend with masters, the more the better.
Also, Rune Heavy Arrows, as Iron Banner Gang’s supply was slightly insufficient.
Hearing this, the handso man’s lips twitched, and he sat down with regret.
He then beca serious, “Young Flag Master, I can decide to sell you the Divine Machine Sect’s inventory in East State.
Thirty stone ‘Nine-star’ heavy crossbows, three thousand taels of Demon Silver each, a total of one hundred; ‘Immortal Tribulation,’ two thousand taels each, a total of one hundred;
Scorpion Crossbow, one thousand five hundred taels each, a total of fifty; Eight-Ard Crossbow, five thousand taels each, a total of thirty; Rune Heavy Arrows are five taels of Demon Silver each, and I can supply you with one hundred thousand.
All these combined amount to one million two hundred twenty-five thousand taels.
I’ll round down for you, total one million two hundred twenty thousand taels.”
Chu Xisheng appeared thoughtful.
He knew that the Nine-star heavy crossbows and ‘Immortal Tribulation’ were more expensive than Scorpion Crossbows because these items were smaller, lighter, could be carried and used by a single person, and were more powerful, particularly effective against high-grade Martial Practitioners.
The Divine Machine Sect’s Nine-star heavy crossbows were especially powerful.
“I know the going rate, don’t try to cheat .
Your Rune Heavy Arrows are even outdated military supplies discarded by the border army, I’ll take everything for eight hundred fifty thousand taels.”
Chu Xisheng gazed intensely at the handso man, “Besides, I know you also have two ‘Four-Ard Divine Slayer Crossbows,’ price them together for one million taels.”
The ‘Four-Ard Divine Slayer Crossbow’ was a true military-grade Magic Artifact, specifically designed for combating the Giant God Clan.
It was said that even the Fourth-Grade Giant Spirits could be grievously wounded by it.
Iron Madman had bought three ‘Four-Ard Divine Slayer Crossbows,’ all placed at the Stone Castle of Mi Family Mansion.
When Tie Xiaosheng broke through, he had taken them out.
It was not until recently that these three ‘Four-Ard Divine Slayer Crossbows’ were brought back to West Mountain Town by the headquarters’ elite.
—Had Tie Xiaosheng had these three ‘Four-Ard Divine Slayer Crossbows’ during the recent upstream river battle, Ren Daoheng would undoubtedly have died!
“It seems that Young Flag Owner Chu is well-inford.”
The handso man squinted his eyes, figuring that it must have been Wo iniang of the Ancient Market.
He then smiled, “Deal!
By the way, we also have several thousand sets of armor and weapons, several thousand heavy crossbows and Four-Ard Crossbows, which can be offered at a 30% discount.
Are you interested, Young Flag Master?”
However, Chu Xisheng shook his head, disinterestedly picking up his teacup, “Please have these items delivered to the East City Pier as soon as possible, Mr.
Zhong.”
The handso man understood this gesture as them being dismissed.
He wasn’t disappointed, smiling as he stood to leave.
The Iron Banner Gang indeed did not lack ordinary military gear, having confiscated nearly twenty thousand blades, guns, swords, and halberds under Xiushui City, plus over ten thousand armors.
Latterly, when Tie Xiaosheng gathered the Navy, he had looted the Ancient Market thoroughly, plundering rchant houses of the governor, the Shangguan Family, and the Sheen Family.
At present, the Iron Banner Gang alone had over a thousand Iron Armors, according to the handso man.
When Tie Xiaosheng led the army northward, all Ninth Grade Martial Cultivators under his command were ard with leather armor and also brought along five thousand military heavy bows.
Not to ntion, the Iron Banner Gang had swept through all the manors along the west bank of the Shenxiu River, seizing countless military equipnt, more than enough to arm tens of thousands.
So it was only natural that this deal would fail to materialize.
“Oh yes!” the handso man suddenly rembered sothing, turning back, “Young Flag Owner Chu!
The Demon Battle Tower asked to inquire if you have any plans to raise a rebellion?
If you are willing to cooperate,
they will send two Fourth Grade True Disciples to assist you.
With your ‘Burial Sky’ bloodline, they are quite interested in you.”
