Chapter 1670: Large-Scale Trade (9)

A wave of relief.

The atmosphere was finally no longer solemn.

But Su Qin truly had no face to walk out of this warehouse — after all, it was a warehouse, with very poor soundproofing.

The sounds traveled through the cracks in the door and walls, spreading in every direction.

Su Qin simply hugged the packed garments, said goodbye to Zhao Chi, and teleported back to Clear Bamboo Town.

Zhao Chi, on the other hand, walked out of the warehouse with his usual expression.

Although some of the village women's gazes were strange, they had long since seen stranger things.

After washing himself clean, Zhao Chi contacted Li Ruanyu.

Zhao Chi: 【Ruanyu, are you in the territory?】

Li Ruanyu: 【Mm, I'm studying Senior Zhang's garments right now. They're truly awe-inspiring. I followed his steps to reproduce them one-to-one, but it's very hard to succeed — there are quite a few steps I don't even know the reason for. He's incredible.】

To be honest, not to mention Li Ruanyu, even Zhao Chi himself didn't know the reasons behind those steps.

Some of the techniques were very counter-intuitive.

It clearly felt like the crafting would fail, but following those grey words, the success rate really did go up.

Sometimes the success rate was pressed right against the line, about to fail any moment, but it just never failed.

If not for his Flower-Plucking-and-Jade-Substitution ability that could see the grey words, Zhao Chi probably would never have been able to make these garments in his life.

Zhao Chi: 【I have another batch of sleepwear. Want to buy it?】

Li Ruanyu: 【Yes, of course I want it — no matter how much, I want it. Where does Senior Zhang get so much sleepwear? Did he stockpile them before?】

Zhao Chi: 【Don't know.】

Those three words — "don't know" — were really very useful.

Li Ruanyu stopped asking.

She just told Zhao Chi to come over.

Li Ruanyu: 【Zhao Chi, come straight to my tailor shop. Teleport over using these coordinates.】

Zhao Chi: 【Okay.】

The coordinates were still at Jasper Jade County, just not at the Griffin Tower anymore.

Teleport directly!

In an instant, Zhao Chi arrived in front of a large building.

It looked about the scale of an arms factory — a large workshop — but it was certainly not an arms factory.

It should be a garment factory.

It was also a high-tier building, one Zhao Chi didn't have yet.

Looking around, the surrounding buildings were arranged in an orderly fashion, with open spaces between them, filled with various flowers, plants, and trees.

The landscaping was quite nice.

Li Ruanyu said this place had undergone two major demolitions and rebuilds before becoming what it was now.

It seemed a great deal of effort had been spent on it.

The Griffin Tower was in the distance.

It really did look less spectacular from afar — at the very top was a tiny platform, like a little matchstick. That was the spot they had gone to before.

As he was looking, a series of light clip-clops came from beside him.

The sound of high heels on stone-brick ground.

He turned his head — sure enough, it was Li Ruanyu walking out.

The moment she saw Zhao Chi had brought another cart, she was naturally overjoyed.

"Oh my, I haven't even given you the money from last time, and you've brought so much again. What can I use to pay you back?"
