BXBX NOVEL Chapter 568 - What Date?
Chapter 568 What Date?
At this moment, the hostess thought that the young man was messing with her, as nobody would be crazy enough to buy a million pieces of accessories at once. Was he going to feed on those accessories?
However, Han Fei simply waved his hand and threw out ten huge cases that contained almost twenty million mid-quality pearls.
He simply said, “Look, I have plenty of money. The problem is whether or not you have enough accessories.”
After a three-second stun, the hostess said quickly, “Yes, I do! I can give you however many accessories you want. Truth be told, boy, we have a lot in storage. I should be able to transport a million to you from the warehouses soon. Even if I can’t, I can deliver them to you in a couple of days.”
However, Han Fei didn’t comment on that but simply looked at the hostess with a smile. “What’s your discount now?”
The hostess was already sweating. She didn’t expect to meet such a character out of the blue. She said quickly, “I can give you a 85% discount. The price will be half of what I offered...”
However, Han Fei simply said to Xia Xiaochan, “Take the money and let’s check other stores.”
Xia Xiaochan grinned, knowing that Han Fei was playing tricks again. She waved her hand and collected the cases.
Seeing that, the hostess panicked and said quickly, “I’ll give you a 90% discount! Sir, that will be a very low price! You can’t get a better offer anywhere else.”
However, Han Fei turned around and looked at the hostess. “What if I purchase a million accessories from you every year?”
The hostess gasped and gave in. “Sir, how much do you want?”
Han Fei curled his lips. “A 95% discount.”
The hostess: “...”
At this moment, Han Fei knew that the hostess was quickly calculating the revenues. However, in his opinion, while those accessories had great craftsmanship, their materials weren’t very expensive. Due to the underdevelopment of the Blue Sea Town, it didn’t have so many materials and people who were engaged in the accessory industry.
However, the Wind Thunder Town was simply too huge and had too large a population. Even the villages within its territory must be very rich. So, it was easy for the accessory industry to develop.
Of course, there were also accessories in the Blue Sea Town, but they were in demand and had a high price, so their sales weren’t high. But the case would be different if he got goods with a 95% discount! He would be making a fortune if he were to sell them for twice as much the cost.
Besides, he could make much more profits. As long as some ten thousand people took part in the lottery with 98 mid-quality pearls, he would be earning the cost back.

After being silent for almost a minute, the hostess suddenly said, “Sir, you’re from another town, and you want to sell the accessories in your place, right? You can get a 95% discount, but you have to purchase two million accessories the first time, and pay a million mid-quality pearls as advance payment.”
Han Fei’s lips curled again. “Not a problem. However, we don’t have so much cash with us. Can we use spiritual weapons as advance payment?”
The hostess was briefly stunned, before she said, “That’s okay, but regular low-quality spiritual weapons aren’t expensive in the Wind Thunder Town. Each of them is only worth fifty thousand mid-quality pearls at best.”
Hearing that, Han Fei shook his head and said, “Let’s use mid-quality pearls then! Xia Xiaochan, give her the money.”
Xia Xiaochan instantly threw out a bunch of boxes that were full of mid-quality pearls. Xia Xiaochan simply said, “That’s a million. You can count them.”
The hostess grinned hard. For a businessperson like her, they wanted to make a living without having to take risks in the fisheries. There was no way that she would miss a bulk procurement like this one.
Immediately, the hostess closed the store and said to Han Fei, “Give me five... Or eight days at most, and you’ll have the two million accessories.”
Han Fei grinned and said, “Don’t rip me off with the cheap products. I’m very rich, and I can easily find another supplier. If you rip me off once, you can’t make money from me again. In that case, you will lose millions per year, won’t you?”
The hostess nodded quickly. “That’s right. I guarantee that you’ll be satisfied with the products. Also, I’ll have the best accessories tailor-made for the two girls.”
Han Fei grinned. “No need for that. I’m not interested in these lousy accessories.”
“Hiss!”
Han Fei instantly gasped as Xia Xiaochan had stepped on his foot and said telepathically, I’m interested! I’m interested!
Luo Xiaobai clutched Han Fei’s clothes too. So am I!
Han Fei immediately chuckled. “How can those accessories compare to my works?”
Hearing that, Luo Xiaobai let go of him and said to Han Fei, “I... I want five, no, ten sets.”
Xia Xiaochan simply said to Han Fei too, “I want ten sets too. You said that you would make them for me.”
Han Fei was lost for words. “It’s the quality, not the quantity, that matters. Would you stop being so greedy? Two sets of finest accessories for each of you. Okay, it’s settled.”
Zhang Xuanyu was hurt. “Fei, what about me?”
“Y-You’ll have to pay for your materials.”
They bickered and walked out of the store, without specifying when they would take the goods, or what goods they really wanted. They didn’t even ask for a third party to witness the deal, as if they weren’t scared that the hostess would go back on the deal.
The host became quite grave. This was a really big client! She couldn’t have secured such a great deal if her store weren’t established somewhere near the central tree.
As for Han Fei and the others, they didn’t care about the money at all. What if they were tricked? They didn’t complain when Uncle Faceless robbed them of five billion. Why would they care about a deal worth ten million?
They wandered a couple of kilometers ahead, and Le Renkuang bought lots of food on the way. They didn’t see anything particularly attractive.
Xia Xiaochan heaved a sigh. “We’ve only spent a million. That’s too little!”
Luo Xiaobai shook her head. “More than that. This deal will probably cost almost twenty million. You’ve lost one tenth of your belongings.” Xia Xiaochan’s eyes widened with anticipation. “But we’ll make the money back after we return to the Blue Sea Town!”
Le Renkuang said, “Spending money is too difficult. It’s much easier with Uncle Faceless.”
Han Fei said furiously, “I’m pissed every time his name is mentioned! As a senior uncle, he didn’t leave any money to us at all! He’s really petty! Too petty!” “He must have a reason that he would rather not talk about. Didn’t our teacher mention that?”
Han Fei smiled and said, “What kind of reason could’ve cost so much money? The mid-quality pearls are absolutely useless except that they’re used as currency. Faceless Uncle wanted money only because he wanted to buy stuff, which is the only thing that the mid-quality pearls can do. What could he buy? Resources, of course. But why did he want to buy the resources?”
Luo Xiaobai suddenly said, “For training.”
“His personal training? Did he really need the regular resources for his own training?”
Luo Xiaobai suggested, “There were thousands of men on his ship. I suspect that they were not from the towns but were raised by Uncle Faceless himself.”
Han Fei nodded. “I think so too, but I don’t understand why he raised so many people. Also, could a thousand people use so much money?”
Luo Xiaobai shook her head. “I don’t know, but it’s clear that Uncle Faceless is short of money. According to the president, you can’t buy Spirit Awakening Fluid with money.” Han Fei was lost for words. “That’s the gift for our first meeting. Was he not embarrassed when he didn’t give us any gifts as a senior?”
The more he talked about it, the more grave Han Fei became. Even Uncle Faceless, who was tough enough to fight against the Law Enforcers, was still so in dire need of money. What about the less significant people like him? Money was undoubtedly very important, and he had to make more money before he went to the Unknown place!
All of a sudden, Han Fei stopped in a stun.
Xia Xiaochan turned around. “What’s up?”
Han Fei suddenly raised his head. “Did we pass by a huge arena on our way here?”
Zhang Xuanyu nodded and said, “Yes! That arena is big enough to accommodate 100,000 people, or even 150,000, if they’re crowded.”
Luo Xiaobai added, “If things go as planned, we’ll be having contests in that arena tomorrow.”
Han Fei didn’t care where the contests would be held. He simply chuckled and said, “Do you miss the days when we fought in the Blue Sea Arena?”
Luo Xiaobai suddenly said, “I know what you’re thinking, but it will expose our capabilities. We’ll be identified after only several rounds.”
Han Fei grinned and said, “That’s not a problem! We have the Thousand Transformation Technique.”
Le Renkuang thought for a moment. “That won’t work! You can transform yourself, but you can’t transform your spiritual beast or contractual spiritual beasts, can you?”
Han Fei frowned and said, “That’s true.”
Everybody simply roamed aimlessly. After all, the preliminary contests wouldn’t be held until tomorrow.
Xia Xiaochan asked telepathically, Are you dying to make money right now?
Han Fei was stunned. Am I?
Yes, you are. Han Fei murmured, “Our living expenses are already so high in the level-three fishery, and they will only get higher in the Unknown Place. If we don’t make more money now, we’ll have to beg Old Bai for money later.”
Han Fei suddenly said to Luo Xiaobai and the others, “Well, you can keep on sightseeing. Xia Xiaochan and I will go on a date!”
Xia Xiaochan: “???”
Zhang Xuanyu wailed. “Do you really have to be so blatant?”
Le Renkuang scratched his abdomen. “Just go! Remember to come back for dinner!”
Luo Xiaobai was speechless.
Han Fei quickly dragged Xia Xiaochan away. While running, Xia Xiaochan snorted and asked, “Where do you want to go for our date?”
“What date? We’re going to the arena.”
“Ah... Don’t stab me...”
