Chapter 2642

Zhao Chi understood.

Although werewolves are insane, they are still a highly intelligent race.

Naturally, they don't bite just anyone.

Although they raid merchant caravans around Snowfield City, they still restrain themselves when encountering caravans from the Abandoner Alliance.

That's why Yin Wanyan dared to come.

She had been cautious just now, afraid Zhao Chi would reject their dealings with the werewolves.

Actually, Zhao Chi didn't care that much.

But Zhao Chi asked again, "I remember you said before that the Ruby Chamber of Commerce doesn't associate with werewolves? Or am I misremembering?"

Wanyan sighed softly.

Then she said, "You didn't misremember, but what I said before was only about our shop, not our Chamber of Commerce. After all, we are a Chamber of Commerce—making money is the top priority. So the headquarters and other departments still have extensive business dealings with the werewolves."

Zhao Chi nodded.

Wanyan added, "Although I also find werewolves repulsive, I'm not really in a position to choose. I just do my own job well. The decisions of the Ruby Chamber of Commerce's upper management aren't something I can make."

Zhao Chi nodded. "It's fine, I understand."

"That's good then."

Zhao Chi asked again, "Since you have this kind of relationship with the werewolves, why did you also evacuate when you were at Horn Cliff Town?"

Yin Wanyan said, "At the time, we were trying to avoid the war, not fleeing from the werewolves. Even if the werewolves don't attack us on their own, during wartime, accidental injuries are still inevitable."

Zhao Chi nodded and said, "Now I completely understand. Do you have any questions for me? Though I can't answer anything about Zhao Si—I can only say she's not here right now and won't be back until next month."

Yin Wanyan smiled and said, "That's exactly what I wanted to ask. Besides that… I also want to know what perfume your female subordinates are using? How have I never smelled such a fragrant, rich perfume before? And each person's scent is different? That's amazing—did you buy it at Shubei Town?"

Zhao Chi glanced at Qi Yue.

She was like a non-toxic, harmless, ultra-eco-friendly incense—her natural fragrance filled the entire room, and both Zhao Chi and Yin Wanyan felt very pleasant; it smelled wonderful.

Zhao Chi smiled and said, "You definitely can't buy that, and don't press further. Ask something else."

"Oh…"

Yin Wanyan was slightly disappointed.

She smiled helplessly and said, "Besides that, I have no other questions. But I can share some information with you."

"What information?"

"There's news on the Angel Bloodline. We found it in Ruins City, but it's quite a bit more expensive than the estimated 23,000 gold coins. Buying it and shipping it over would cost about 33,000 gold coins—a full 10,000 more. Will Young Lady Zhao Si agree?"

Angel Bloodline!

Finally, there's news!

Zhao Chi immediately said, "Zhao Si is my subordinate. I can decide her matters directly—you can just ask my opinion. 33,000 gold coins for the Angel Bloodline is completely fine. I can pay the deposit now. About how long until it arrives?"

Wanyan said, "Alright, I understand. If you agree, I'll send word back right now. But the message itself takes some time to get through, plus travel time, so it'll probably take around two months."

"That's too long. Can you speed it up? I can pay extra courier fees or other costs."

"It can be done… but it's very expensive."

"How expensive?"

"I'll consume one Fuxi Qin Fragment to transmit the message immediately. That cuts down the transmission time, but it'll cost an extra 2,500 gold coins for the item."

2,500 gold coins really is very expensive.

But that's for other people.

Zhao Chi agreed immediately: "No problem. I'll give you the money now—go notify them right away. Including the deposit for the bloodline, calculate how much I owe you in total."

"4,500 gold coins in total."

"Here!"

Zhao Chi traded directly.

Yin Wanyan glanced at Zhao Chi in surprise.

Then she quietly accepted it.

Right after, she took out a yellow-brown piece of broken wood.

It looked very unremarkable, but this was the expensive Fuxi Qin Fragment.

"Um… after I've finished conveying your business, I should still have some time left. Could I transmit some of my own information at the same time? If you're not willing, I can pay you some fee."

Zhao Chi smiled and said, "Forget the fee. Just handle my business well—I don't care about the rest."

Wanyan said happily, "That's great, thank you. I'll notify them right now."

She immediately activated the Fuxi Qin Fragment.

The broken wood emitted a bright glow.

Yin Wanyan said softly:

"Brother Zhao, the customer has agreed to purchase the Angel Bloodline for 33,000 gold coins. The deposit has been paid. The need is urgent—please transport it to Snowfield City at the highest priority. Be sure to move fast!

"Also, Xiao Lei's matter has been settled. Tell Sister Hui and the others not to keep investing effort into it.

"The werewolves in Tianfeng City and Xiongxin City are also in a stalemate with the local forces and can't win in the short term. You can continue shipping goods over.

"The elves in Divine Tree City can't hold back the werewolves anymore—the place is about to fall completely. You can bring this news to Twilight City. You're much closer to Twilight City than I am, so you can get the message there a bit faster.

"Thank you very much."

When Wanyan finished speaking, the glow in her hand had just faded completely.

Only the first sentence was spoken at a normal, clear pace. The remaining sentences, though equally clear, were spoken extremely fast—she wanted to convey as much information as possible within the time.

After speaking, she gave Zhao Chi a charming smile.

"Thank you, Zhao Chi."

"You're welcome."

"If we do it this way, the time to transport the Angel Bloodline can probably be shortened to around 40 days. You'll still need to wait a little longer."

"40 days… got it. What about the other supplies?"

"The others are also being sourced. The second batch is already in transit and will definitely arrive before month's end, but the list isn't confirmed yet — I can only provide it a bit later."

"Good. I also want to order more supplies. Money isn't the issue — the only issue is speed! Can you do it?"

Shopkeeper Wanyan smiled and said: "I really didn't expect that you're this rich. Tell me first — what supplies? I need to assess the acquisition difficulty and transport time before I can answer you."

"I need… 650,000 Quick-Labor Talismans, 1,000,000 Quick-Growth Talismans, plus fragments of the Qiankun Cauldron, fragments of the Taiyi Wheel, and all these other Divine Artifact fragments — especially a lot of Xuanu Ruler fragments — as well as some blueprints and improvement manuals. This is the requirements list. Can you find them?"

Yin Wanyan listened and was dumbfounded.

Her eyes were blank, her pupils lifeless.

Just like Gu Qing right after climax.

She shook her head, forcing herself to calm down.

But she still asked in shock: "You… are all these supplies you mentioned needed all at once, or do you just want me to pick one of them?"

"Of course I want all of them."

Wanyan bit her lip: "You're not joking with me, right?"

"What joke would I be making? I can give you the prepayment right now."
