Huh? Isn't this an adventure kingdom building game?! Chapter 757 - 732: Truly Remarkable? (Part 2)
If it weren’t for being chosen by the system, this kind of foolproof operation really would be doable by anyone who steps up.
Oh, wait, not like Mr. Li, who was arrogant and domineering just because he was powerful;
nor like my predecessor, Yellow Hair, who was easily controlled by his small head ruling the big one;
and certainly not those who, with a little influence in the company, ford cliques to bully honest people, or those sycophantic troublemakers.
When compared this way, it seems I do have a bit of an advantage, but not much. Jiang Yuan thought, binding a system for help but then losing track of who he was, floating without boundaries — that’s a bit foolish.
With the traitor caught red-handed and dealt with, City Lord Ming looked at the Bear Demons possibly involved but without evidence, and was montarily at a loss.
One cannot wrong a good bear, but definitely cannot let a traitor go, otherwise if they stay hidden and collude inside out in other ways, it would lead to endless troubles!
"Don’t think shouting your innocence loudly will get you off the hook." Jiang Yuan looked at the sky, almost dawn, and clearly City Lord Ming didn’t have the ans to identify the traitor, so he checked the details one by one.
Then, pointing at the Angry Fire Bear roaring the loudest, he said, "You and that bear were in cahoots, taking turns keeping the Communication Stone, today he just had bad luck and got caught.
And this one, this one, and these few all have accomplices; additionally, that one over there and these two are inford but didn’t report. The rest are innocent, City Lord should release them."
"Thank you, sir, for clearing the confusion!" City Lord Ming, already in absolute admiration of him, trusted unconditionally whatever he said. Upon hearing him, she imdiately ordered for the release of those who should be freed, and the arrest of those who should be captured, finally resolving the traitor issue.
Originally she wanted him to look at the Fire God Statue, but alas, to ensure no mishaps, the city’s craftsn were progressing slowly, not yet fully prepared, so she’d have to surprise Mr. Jiang next ti.
After discussing cooperation matters, Hou Ze still had to find buyers; Jiang Yuan wanted to try his luck at the Xin Huo rchant Shop, so they each went their separate ways.
[Wilderness Ascension at Dawn]
As soon as he was transported to Trapped Snake Island, a system notification flashed through his vision at exactly six o’clock in the morning.
Simultaneously, the distant sound of the island’s lodic morning bell could be heard ringing.
"Wilderness Ascension! All passing traders, please ensure safety~" In a full-throated shout, white clouds billowed as mist encircled the docks, and the rolling lake waters began to rise.
A streak of rosy light unfolded from the east, giving the tiered and cornered ornate buildings of Trapped Snake Island a subtle golden hue.
Passing traders didn’t seem much affected, continuing their bustling demon and beast activities.
The head clerk of Xin Huo stood at the shop entrance, looking around briefly, before signaling over to a smiling demon cultivator guiding several large beasts towards him, "I’m still caught up right now.
I took a big order earlier, have to deliver over three hundred large crates to the dock for soone to pick up. I’ve been busy for half an hour and still many remain. Friend, see if there are others available, if not, I’ll co over once I’m done."
"Alright! You go ahead!" The head clerk responded with a happy greeting, continuing to look around.
Both morning and evening ascensions and descents in the Wilderness were when all the shops were busy transporting goods. Xin Huo, once massive, had their own transport beasts for easy and convenient delivery at any ti.
Since the rchant shop officially passed into the hands of the Head Shopkeeper, through nurous upheavals over a century, those cumberso goods that couldn’t fit into storage bags had to be carried by cal drivers.
Cal drivers who earned by transporting goods chose their jobs carefully, all preferring those shops with high volus, and with no Fire Stones to trade, Xin Huo’s remaining flow simply couldn’t compete.
The head clerk watched as another familiar cal driver politely declined, sighed at the shop entrance.
"Excuse , do you have goods that need transporting to the dock?" Jiang Yuan was just trying his luck, but noticing the urgency, he quickly nodded, "Yes, yes, yes! A total of thirty large crates, to the dock! Where’s your cargo beast?"
The head clerk looked around and saw no trace of a giant beast, showing a puzzled expression.
He smiled, "I don’t use giant beasts for transport, this is Miss Ruan’s token, recomnding to help your shop with a small task to earn so money."
"Hey! Miss Ruan’s fragrant spiral shell!" The head clerk imdiately recognized it, anyone who could catch her eye and recomnd must have exceptional abilities.
Nonetheless, so things needed clarification, and he gestured for him to enter the shop, "There are all kinds of strange goods on Trapped Snake Island, so items cannot be stored in storage bags. Take our urgently needed fuel, so would emit fire or toxic fus, corroding the storage bag.
Storage bags are always more valuable the larger they are, storage for so many crates is priceless, if you damage it trying to earn three to five hundred Spirit Stones, our shop won’t compensate."
As he spoke, he observed the other party, the slender tall man with long arms and legs clearly couldn’t bear such heavy loads, the head clerk was very curious about what thod he might use for transportation.
Jiang Yuan spoke truthfully, "I have a very special small space, impervious to toxic or fire fus, allowing for quick and easy transport of goods. As long as your shop settles the paynt promptly, I assure you it’ll be done faster and better than those cal drivers."
"If it were anyone else, I’d consider, but since you’re recomnded by Miss Ruan, there’s no reason for delay? A total of thirty large crates, different items and weights, altogether 190 Spirit Stones, if you find it reasonable, transport the goods now, and we’ll settle the account imdiately at the dock once verified!"
