Chapter 51 Dragon Court Sells Everything
Two men in black stood guard at the door, while the other sat casually opposite Zhuo Yang with his legs crossed, creating a very strange atmosphere in the interrogation room.
"How do you plan to handle this?" Zhuo Yang asked with a faint smile, a few questions swirling in his mind.
What exactly is the Dragon Court?
What are they in charge of?
Where is the bottom line?
Having figured out these issues, it will be easier for Zhuo Yang to exploit loopholes in the future. Back when he was a demon lord, Zhuo Yang had used the rules of the immortal realm to secretly infiltrate the immortal court and obtain many valuable items.
A good cultivator is one who knows how to utilize all resources. Zhuo Yang understood this principle well.
"Isn't the opening line always a self-introduction?" The man sitting opposite searched his pockets for a while, pulled out a crumpled business card, and threw it in front of Zhuo Yang.
Upon picking it up, I saw it was Zhou Hanxiao, the Southeast Region Manager of Longting All-Selling Trading Company…
What the hell is that name?
What's with selling everything?
and also……
"Smiling in the afterlife?" Zhuo Yang couldn't help but blurt it out.
This is a damn unreliable business card!
Zhou Hanxiao immediately lost his composure, leaping up and bracing himself on the table, his face darkening as he roared, "Bro, you're the first person to dare say 'Hanxiao Jiuquan' (meaning 'Hanxiao is dead') to my face. You've got quite the mouth!"
The roar was loud, but unfortunately it lacked sufficient imposing force and presence; it was just a pure outburst.
Zhuo Yang was secretly alarmed. He scanned the area with his demonic eyes but couldn't detect even the slightest fluctuation of true essence.
There are only two possibilities in this situation. First, Zhou Hanxiao is an ordinary person. Second, Zhou Hanxiao's cultivation level is far beyond what Zhuo Yang can perceive, causing Zhuo Yang's demonic eyes to become ineffective.
The first option is out of the question. The legendary Dragon Court is an organization that manages cultivators, and ordinary people probably can't control them, so...
Zhou Hanxiao is an absolute master!
Zhuo Yang looked at Zhou Hanxiao quietly, then grinned exaggeratedly and said, "The big fish has taken the bait!"
"Ok?"
Zhou Hanxiao paused for a moment, pinched his stubble-covered chin, and squinted as he said, "You kid, are you deliberately trying to lure the Dragon Court people to you?"
Zhuo Yang shrugged, indicating that he had not said that.
The two men exchanged a glance, both understanding that some things didn't need to be said; they both knew what was going on.
“Actually, we’re in business.” Zhou Hanxiao sat back down in her chair and pointed to the nameplate in front of Zhuo Yang.
Zhuo Yang's lips twitched. He picked up the business card again and asked with a dark face, "You're not going to tell me that the legendary, arrogant Longting is actually called Longting All-Selling Trade Company, are you?"
"Congratulations on getting it right!" Zhou Hanxiao cupped her hands in greeting, her face also showing a speechless expression.
Who the hell came up with that name?!
Zhuo Yang was about to flip the table in anger. Such a high-class department for cultivators was actually a trading company? And a trading company that sold everything?
“Actually, we are not civil servants of state institutions.” Zhou Hanxiao leaned back in her chair, her sad eyes looking up at the sky. “We are not even state-owned enterprises. The entire Longting is a self-financing enterprise, run by a few old men. The state does not control any shares at all.”
"A private company?" Zhuo Yang opened his mouth, feeling that Longting's prestige was dropping.
"Last month's salary hasn't been paid yet," the man in black standing guard at the door said, pursing his lips.
Zhuo Yang was immediately shocked and stared at him in astonishment, "You still owe wages?"
The sophistication has plummeted to rock bottom...
“Who says otherwise? I’m even thinking of going home and starting my own company.” Zhou Hanxiao chimed in, giving a wry smile. “So, just say what you want to say. We’re businessmen, and from a businessman’s perspective, there’s nothing we can’t say.”
Zhuo Yang nodded to show he understood, but he was still intimidated by Long Ting's high-class attitude.
Longting sells everything to its trading company...
What the hell!
"What do you sell?" Zhuo Yang thought for a moment and then probed.
"Anything you can think of that's legal, we'll sell!" Zhou Hanxiao's expression immediately changed, and she grinned and winked, looking just like a shrewd businessman. "That's why we say we sell everything!"
Zhuo Yang gritted his teeth, suppressing the urge to twitch his cheeks, and said in a deep voice, "Will you sell rare and precious materials?"
"As long as you can afford the price!" Zhou Han chuckled. "And we also need to have it!"
"Nonsense!" Zhuo Yang retorted, his anger barely contained, "If you had anything good, would you buy it?"
"We're businessmen, of course we'll accept!"
"The Cold Spirit Pill?"
We want better!
"I need rare and precious materials to refine pills!"
"make a deal!"
The two men huddled together, and in a shrewd, merchant-like manner, they secured the elixir supply channel for what would become the most powerful cultivation organization on Earth.
Zhou Hanxiao stood up, extended her hand, and said with a smile, "Mr. Zhuo Yang, I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation!"
"Wait a minute." Zhuo Yang remained unmoved. "The price hasn't been clearly stated yet."
"One hundred thousand for a pill that's better than the Cold Spirit Pill, that's the highest price!" Zhou Hanxiao replied with a stern face, then became nonchalant again, even making a money gesture with his hand.
"You want a reward?" Zhuo Yang's eyelids began to twitch.
From the moment Zhou Hanxiao entered the interrogation room, everything was beyond Zhuo Yang's expectations, and he felt very uncomfortable.
"Of course not!" Zhou Hanxiao waved her hand helplessly. "My authority is limited. Whether you sell me one pill or ten thousand pills, I can only offer this price."
Zhuo Yang looked at him indifferently, realizing that he had something to say next.
Seeing that Zhuo Yang didn't respond, Zhou Hanxiao paced around impatiently for a couple of seconds before finally stopping beside him and whispering, "Brother, I'm in a bit of a bind, so I really can't raise the price, but..."
He chuckled, "I have some precious medicinal herbs and some broken magical artifacts on hand, which I can sell to you cheaply."
"In addition, various ancient tombs and secret realms have been appearing one after another in the past two months. Our All-Selling Grand Hotel plans to form a cultivator exploration team. Each member can get a commission after completing the exploration mission!"
"Once you join the expedition team, we'll be brothers, and everything will be fine!"
He even patted Zhuo Yang on the shoulder, acting as if they were true brothers.
A blatant attempt to win them over...
However, only capable people will be won over; who will pay attention to those who are not capable?
Zhuo Yang understood this principle very well. He looked up at Zhou Hanxiao and said coldly, "In the end, won't we be the ones putting in the effort while your Dragon Court benefits?"
“It’s different!” Zhou Hanxiao sat back down in her chair and winked at Zhuo Yang. “After joining the expedition team, you’ll have a fixed salary, and when exploring secret realms, you can secretly hide some good stuff without anyone knowing, right?”
Zhuo Yang took a deep breath, feeling that Zhou Hanxiao was about to distort his worldview.
After thinking for a moment, he said coldly, "We'll talk about the expedition team later. If I'm interested, I'll let you know in advance. As for the pills, we can sell them to Longting at the price you mentioned, on the condition that you provide me with rare and precious materials and damaged magical artifacts every month. I can still give you a generous price!"
"Deal!" Zhou Hanxiao chuckled a few times, thinking to himself that this kid was indeed just as the report said, extremely patient and never acting without a clear objective, not even bothering with officially recognized secret realms... He's not easy to deal with!
I hope he can provide me with some real elixirs. There are too many cultivators jumping out lately, and the Dragon Court is too busy to keep up.
