Chapter 2587

Su Qin held Zhao Chi's arm and walked slowly behind the crowd.

"Zhao Chi, do you have anything for me to do later? I want to go find Lu Yi and Wei Li and ask if they're willing to join our squad."

Zhao Chi nodded and said, "Go ahead. I'll post some bounties in a bit and then head back to craft."

Su Qin smiled and said, "Alright, just call me if you need anything. I'll head over first then."

"Mm, go ahead."

Su Qin weaved through the crowd and left.

Zhao Chi made his way through the crowded main street and headed to the mission hall on the south side.

He was now a VIP here too, so he didn't need to wait on the first or second floor. He went straight up to the third-floor VIP room and was received privately.

Soon, he posted bounties for the "Commander Platform" and "Nourishing Palace Pills."

The full historical transaction record for the complete Commander Platform blueprints was 950 gold coins, not breaking a thousand.

But that didn't matter.

Zhao Chi still posted a bounty of 20,000 gold coins.

He also purchased a 3-day front-page recommendation.

This could truly be called a heavy bounty.

As for the Nourishing Palace Pills' complete blueprints, there were multiple historical transaction records—some as low as a few dozen gold coins, the most only just over 100.

Zhao Chi posted a bounty of 2,000 gold coins.

He also got a front-page recommendation.

He refused to believe he couldn't get them.

Additionally, the bounty amounts for various divine artifact fragments were raised to 5 times.

After all, divine artifact fragments weren't like blueprints, where one bounty was enough. Zhao Chi was posting continuous bounties for the fragments, with the amount temporarily set at 5 times.

After all, this was still a huge sum.

According to Zhao Chi's bounty prices, the cheapest fragment was 6,000 gold coins, and the expensive ones had already broken past 20,000 gold coins.

As long as Shuwei Town had them, they could definitely be dug out.

Bounties were also posted simultaneously for Swift-Growth Talismans and Refugee Talismans.

Swift-Growth Talismans at 2.5 gold coins, Refugee Talismans at 10 gold coins.

The quantity was set at 1 million each.

Zhao Chi didn't want to set a quantity limit—he wanted to set it to unlimited acceptance—but it wasn't allowed; a cap had to be set.

So he posted the bounty at the maximum quantity of 1 million.

The senior female trader Xu Qiu who was attending to him was completely dumbfounded.

"Lord Zhao Chi... are you serious?"

Zhao Chi looked at the bewildered Xu Qiu and said, "What else? Do I look like I'm joking?"

Xu Qiu waved her hand and said, "No, I don't mean anything else, it's just... aren't the bounty amounts you've set a bit too high? I have to remind you that some of your bounty amounts have already exceeded 20 times. Are you sure?"

Zhao Chi said helplessly, "Don't worry, go ahead and post them. I'll need to confirm again anyway."

"Then I'll really register them. And the quantity for these last two is 1 million each. If someone really brings a huge quantity, you'll need to pay on time, or there will be a breach-of-contract penalty."

Zhao Chi smiled and said, "If someone really can bring a massive quantity, I couldn't thank them enough. Go ahead and register them, and give me 3 days of promotion for these too."

Xu Qiu nodded and said no more.

The registration was quickly completed.

"Lord Zhao Chi, please take a look. If there's no problem, I'll post them."

After carefully checking, Zhao Chi nodded: "No problem, but the Swift-Growth Talismans' posting time needs to be 30 minutes later. I need to go short the exchange first."

Xu Qiu looked at the ceiling, then finally figured out what Zhao Chi meant by "shorting": "... Understood."

"Some of my bounties have already been completed. I need to collect this portion first. Help me settle the accounts."

"Okay..."

【Bounty List】

【Completed List】

"Swift-Craft Talisman" x2,209

"Mysterious Lady Ruler Fragment" x1

"Maid Outfit Super Improvement Book" x1 set

"Wedding Dress Outfit Blueprint" x1 set

【Goods Fee】 4,525.4 gold coins

【Service Fee】 135.8 gold coins

【Handling Fee】 90.5 gold coins

【Total】 4,751.7 gold coins

It seemed the Swift-Craft Talismans had really been sucked dry.

In a whole day, only a little over 2,200 had been bountied.

But the bounty price had been slightly lower before. Today it had already been raised to 1 gold coin each, so tomorrow there might be more.

The divine artifact fragments had previously been bountied at 2 times the price, and only 1 had been bountied. Now it had been raised to 5 times the price. He'd see how many he could get tomorrow...

But what Zhao Chi hadn't expected was that this time he had also bountied a complete set of wedding dress blueprints and a complete Maid Outfit Super Improvement Book.

It was probably a complete set opened directly from a treasure chest.

Or... simply someone's personal collection?

Both the wedding dress and the maid outfit were sets, each being a 5-piece set.

Wedding Dress Outfit Blueprint

Shuwei Town

The wedding dress includes: veil, headpiece, long dress, gloves, and high-heeled bridal shoes.

The maid outfit includes: headdress, apron, sleeve covers, long socks, and high-heeled leather shoes.

The previous maid-outfit super-improvement book already contained one maid long-sock super-improvement book, so the long-sock super-improvement book acquired earlier was wasted.

But it's nothing more than a dozen or so gold coins.

It doesn't matter.

The wedding-dress blueprints are the same.

Earlier I also acquired a wedding-dress long-dress blueprint, which was also wasted, but blueprints are even cheaper—just a few gold coins, so it can be ignored.

Now the maid outfit's improvement books and super-improvement books are all collected; only the sleeve-cover and headdress blueprints remain to complete a full set.

Although I can craft the individual pieces now, I really don't have the time.

I'll craft them all together once the set is complete.

The wedding dress is missing quite a lot; the super-improvement books are all still missing.

No problem—I'll increase the bounty, and they will definitely show up.

These supplies were just over 4,700 gold coins, and Zhao Chi paid quickly.

"Xu Qiu, help me change the price of the set-piece blueprints I posted bounties for earlier to 20 times as well."

"Understood… only modifying the set pieces, correct?"

"Mm… forget it, change the full sets to 30 times for me, and the individual pieces to 20 times!"

Anyway, blueprints and improvement books are all one-time use.

Even at 30 times, it's only a few hundred gold coins, and at most won't reach a thousand.

Zhao Chi is now using money to buy time.

If a bounty this generous still can't draw them out, it can only mean they aren't here.

Xu Qiu hesitated: "Lord Zhao Chi, if you truly don't care about money, I suggest you raise the individual pieces to 30 times as well."

"Mm? Why? I want to encourage those who can deliver a complete set of blueprints in one go."

Xu Qiu nodded: "I understand, but if you post the bounty this way, those who have individual-piece blueprints might tend to hold off until they've gathered a full set before claiming the bounty, which could drag things out. Of course, it's only a possibility—after all, people with individual-piece blueprints might also fear missing the opportunity and not delay."

"Mm…" Zhao Chi nodded: "What you say makes sense—raise them all to 30 times."

"Alright… modifications complete."

Zhao Chi stood up and said: "Alright, thank you for your hard work. Let's call it a day."

Xu Qiu also hurriedly stood up.

She quickly smoothed her short skirt with both hands, then said: "Lord Zhao Chi, do you have time this evening? I'd like to treat you to a meal."

Zhao Chi was a little surprised: "Treat me to a meal?"

Xu Qiu gave a charming smile: "That's right. Every time you trade, we also get a commission. I want to thank you, so I'd like to treat you to a meal—do you happen to have the time?"
