Chapter 631: Snatching the Deal?

~7 min read 1,269 words

Caimi36D: "Chairman Mo Wen, hello."

"... hello."

Su Sheng looked at the game nickname, somewhat speechless.

It's also unbeatable.

"Are you sure you want to trade this item?" Su Sheng asked in the chat.

Because the friend info showed that this Caimi girl is also a Thief class.

She is a Wind‑Chasing Thief.

This Hidden Class item is limited to Thieves and Mages.

"Yes, I'm set to trade. Chairman Mo Wen, are you interested?" Caimi continued sending messages.

"Of course, but why don't you use it yourself?"

Su Sheng was a bit curious.

After all, as a 'Zhu Lu' player, one can't be uninterested in Hidden Classes; the game forums now mostly discuss Hidden Classes.

"Ahem, I know exactly how much I have; selling for cash is the most practical."

"If I use it myself, whether I can clear the quest is another matter; a failure would be a loss."

"Moreover, even if the class change succeeds, I know that as a Hidden Class, the top ten guilds, including your Yanhuang, warmly welcome me."

"But, to earn money you have to create value, and you also have to work yourself to death learning the techniques. I'm just a rookie; getting this thing is pure luck."

"Since that's the case, I might as well sell it at a high price and comfortably become a little rich lady."

The Caimi girl's analysis was thorough and logical.

Su Sheng couldn't help but be a bit surprised; this girl is truly clear‑headed.

In fact, the girl's reasoning isn't wrong.

It's the same old saying: the strong stay strong. You're like the pillar of Qiancheng Muxue, while Qiancheng Lihualuo is just an ordinary War Knight.

But ordinary Hidden Classes aren't necessarily opponents of Qiancheng Lihualuo.

Furthermore, some masters of the Hidden Dragon and the Ten Court Yanluo of the Assassin Alliance are also ordinary professions.

Even ordinary players who switch to a Hidden Class may not survive under them.

For the strong, a Hidden Class is merely a decorative flourish.

But for ordinary players, although it can boost strength, the gain is limited; moreover, one must train awareness and technique to truly exploit a Hidden Class's advantage.

"Then set a price."

Su Sheng silently gave the girl a like; her name was a bit unconventional, but she was genuinely straightforward.

"Twenty million!"

"No Gold Coins!"

Su Sheng raised an eyebrow at the message!

It really is a bit pricey.

Actually, on the market, the standard Hidden Class items start at just over ten million.

The main issue is completing the quests; the challenge missions for Hidden Classes aren't easy.

You can see it from how Li Xiao's guy asked me for support and how Yun Duo sought me out.

After all, the game forums have many examples of failed Hidden Class transition quests.

There are also many Hidden Class quests not triggered by items, and many of those fail, which is another reason Hidden Classes are scarce.

Back then, the Imperial Dynasty's Xia Shang Xi Zhou and Wu Zhaodi competition‑mode quests also existed.

If the Imperial Dynasty hadn't been so powerful, after losing to Yanhuang, the Xia Shang Xi Zhou Hidden Classes would have all failed.

"It's a bit pricey, double the market price," Su Sheng replied.

The phoenix blood I sold to Li Wenwan fetched only six million, essentially half‑price, since Li Wenwan is now the Mage Guild Leader of Yanhuang.

"I know it's a bit pricey, but I'll sell at this price; someone will eventually buy it."

"After all, it's a rare stroke of luck."

Caimi also knew the price was excessive; if it were cheaper, it would have sold long ago.

But Caimi stubbornly held firm on the price.

Su Sheng silently opened a private chat with Chen Guan and sent the item info over.

A reply came back almost instantly!

"Godfather! Bu Piao has been drifting half a life..."

"It's not in my possession," Su Sheng replied calmly.

"Ahem, that Brother Sheng...," the tone changed quickly.

"It's with a girl, but she's willing to sell, asking twenty million!"

"Buy!"

Young Master Chen blurted out, flaunting his wealth.

After all, he's a second‑generation rich kid.

Twenty million? What of it! I'll use it myself!

Money's no issue; just buy it!

Su Sheng, now in the guild chairman's seat, has to consider cost‑performance, since buying such an item is meant to create greater value.

But Chen Guan doesn't need that; he simply wants it.

And now Yanhuang is turning a profit, so he can start sharing the money!

"Alright, add her!"

Su Sheng directly sent the girl's nickname.

"This name… feels cool."

From now on Su Sheng won't worry about it and will continue to level up peacefully.

Ten minutes later.

Chen Guan sent a screenshot of the item: "Got it!"

"Congrats, but you need to be careful with the quest flow and not fail; if you need help just say so."

Su Sheng saw Chen Guan's message and smiled.

"Hmm, I know, it's just that I'm worried we have to depart tomorrow…" After all, the Hidden Class process has started, and it's unclear how long it will take. Good luck might mean one or two days; bad luck could be four or five days, which isn't impossible.

"No big problem; just let the rogues lead the team. But if we hit a critical spot and can't get through, once the matter over at Huan Yu is resolved I'll go with you."

"Okay." Chen Guan replied.

Then there was no further message.

Probably Chen Guan is already eager to start the quest.

"A bloodline race, huh."

"Vampire?"

Su Sheng shook his head, didn't think much; after all it's just a game, whether it's a vampire or a skeleton, as long as it's powerful.

Su Sheng continued leveling up.

It was less than half an hour, and another Private Chat came in.

Su Sheng was surprised to see it was Lang Xing Tianxia.

The alliance decree has already been settled financially, and the Greedy Wolf Guild has been established.

Now Lang Xing Tianxia, why aren't you rushing to raise your own guild level? What do you want from me?

"Chairman Mo Wen, that's not fair of you."

Looking at Lang Xing Tianxia's Private Chat, Su Sheng was completely confused.

"???"

Su Sheng silently sent three question marks.

"I've been negotiating here for two or three days, and Chairman Mo Wen, you just swooped in silently." Lang Xing Tianxia continued.

Su Sheng was stunned, then thought of something: "Caimi 36D?"

"Yeah! I was only trying to haggle the 20 million, and Chairman Mo Wen, you just took it from her."

Lang Xing Tianxia: don't even mention how depressed I am.

If I'd known, I wouldn't have tangled over these few million. The main thing is that even if I bought it, I couldn't use it; if it were a Hidden Class item I could use myself, I'd have spent the 20 million.

But it's for the subordinates, so I naturally have to consider cost‑effectiveness.

"Well… I really didn't know. They approached me themselves, and Kong Lang happened to be able to use it, so he bought it with his own money." Su Sheng couldn't help but show a helpless smile.

So it ended up being snatched by Greedy Wolf without me noticing.

But it's a trade, mutually willing.

I'm not at a loss either; you think 20 million is expensive, but they must be selling it to someone else.

Lang Xing Tianxia understood, but couldn't help venting.

Feeling aggrieved…

But I don't know how to say it.

At least the guild has been set up.
