Chapter 2498

~5 min read 963 words

Zhao Chi did indeed receive the re-confirmation notice.

【Notice: Please confirm the prices of the following items you submitted. If confirmed, the sales order will be opened for trading.】

【1. 200,000 tons of wheat kernels: unit price 7 copper coins per kilogram】

【2. 10,000,000 Experience Fruits, unit price 10 silver coins per piece】

Of course, no problem.

Click confirm.

The system prompted again:

【Please reconfirm the trading location】

【1. Jade Squadron – Clear Bamboo Squad – Zhao Chi's Territory: Peach Blossom Town】

No problem either.

Confirm again.

System prompt:

【Confirmation complete. The order has been opened for generation. Please check for incoming orders.】

Zhao Chi had originally wanted to set the trading location at Clear Bamboo Town, Su Qin's territory.

But that would require transporting the goods over again.

Too much trouble.

Really unnecessary.

After all, he was operating under Li Ruanyu's name anyway, so it didn't matter.

He set the trading point at an open plot on the outskirts of Peach Blossom Town.

Moreover, when Zhao Chi registered, although he did need to submit some other information,

this kind of information was of course not open to the public.

Ordinary lords could only see that a large amount of goods had been added to the inventory list, and had no idea who was selling.

This could also avoid some unnecessary trouble.

Of course.

Shen Jiyun and some high-level staff members could see it directly. If Yao Feng and other high-ranking lords of the White Tiger Group asked, Shen Jiyun would also need to inform them.

It didn't matter.

Zhao Chi and Su Qin stood far back at the end of the line.

After all, his target was the Speed-Work Talisman, so taking his time in line was fine.

But no sales order notifications had appeared in the system. Even with so many people scrambling, not a single order had been sold yet.

Because the scene was too chaotic, trading simply couldn't proceed normally.

Bronze Rock Brigade Commander Ren Yunchuan was right here.

Vice Commander Shen Jiyun didn't have the time, so she had handed full authority over the trading point to him.

Just now, everything at the scene had been fine.

The lines were neat and orderly.

At the refreshment stand nearby, quite a few lords were relaxing, drinking tea and chatting.

But in the blink of an eye, the lords went crazy, all swarming toward the trading point. He had absolutely no idea what was going on.

The several vice brigade commanders with him were equally clueless.

Only one of them figured out the situation.

"Oh? The Jade Squadron just submitted a huge sales order… and the prices are dirt cheap! They must be trying to grab this stock. Take a look."

Ren Yunchuan and the others also opened the system one after another.

Sure enough.

All the commanders saw it.

Ren Yunchuan said in astonishment: "The prices… what's going on? Did Ruanyu mislabel them?"

The vice commander beside him said: "Shouldn't be wrong, right? The prices have already been confirmed twice. The confirmer… is a Sergeant-level lord called Zhao Chi. Huh? A Sergeant-level Town Lord?"

Another said: "Huh? Is he reliable? I feel like I've heard of Zhao Chi somewhere… wasn't he that Best Rookie from before?"

"Seems like it. He has Ruanyu's authorization… and it's full authorization."

"Huh? Full authorization? Ruanyu trusts him that much?"

"Yeah, Zhao Chi is her student, and he's also from the Zhao family of Stream Village."

"Got it, no wonder."

Ren Yunchuan was also looking at this information.

He had originally been curious about the relationship between Zhao Chi and Li Ruanyu.

After all, when he had met Zhao Chi, it was during a showdown between state-level lords.

In that kind of situation, Li Ruanyu had actually brought along Zhao Chi, a mere town-level lord. Ren Yunchuan honestly couldn't figure it out.

But the battle had been urgent at the time, so of course he wouldn't bother with such matters.

It wasn't until later, when Zhao Chi cast a skill on his female soldiers, that he guessed Li Ruanyu had only brought him along to use that skill.

After the battle ended,

when he checked Zhao Chi's profile, he learned of the connection that Zhao Chi had once been Li Ruanyu's student.

And of course he also knew that Li Ruanyu had some ties with the Zhao family.

So he figured the relationship between Li Ruanyu and Zhao Chi was exactly that.

With these two layers of connection, it made perfect sense for Li Ruanyu to bring Zhao Chi along.

So neither Ren Yunchuan nor Shen Jiyun had asked Zhao Chi any extra questions.

All for this same reason.

Now that Zhao Chi had Li Ruanyu's full authorization on his side, it was reasonable enough.

But it still felt a little odd.

After all, authorization like this was very important — Zhao Chi could use Li Ruanyu's name to do a great many things.

Even with such a connection, Li Ruanyu shouldn't have pulled the authorization up to such a high level, right?

Ren Yunchuan couldn't quite figure it out.

Of course he didn't know that Zhao Chi and Li Ruanyu had another layer of relationship between them.

They were husband and wife.

To be safe, he still sent Li Ruanyu a confirmation message.

But Li Ruanyu never replied.

Ren Yunchuan had the right to send a forced message, but a forced message could only be sent in an emergency.

So if Li Ruanyu hadn't opened the system, she wouldn't see Ren Yunchuan's message.

"Seal those two sales slips for now. Don't trade them yet. Wait until I've confirmed."

"Yes!"

Immediately a vice captain locked them in the system — both of Zhao Chi's sales slips were temporarily suspended and could not be traded.
