Soul Land V: Rebirth of Tang San

This was a result of Tang San\'s prior arrangements, having contacted the Spirit Rhinoceros Deer Beast King through a communicator given before coming here.

The caravan leader glanced at Tang San and in the next moment, his gaze was drawn to the old man behind Tang San.

The Spirit Rhinoceros Deer Beast was best at observing, and the Spirit Rhinoceros Eye could penetrate the changes of various elements. From the old man, he saw overwhelming fire elements, clearly indicative of the strength that only a god-level strong could possess.

A human god-level fighter? This was definitely an extremely rare existence.

The caravan leader himself was a Ninth Stage strong, a Ninth Stage Spirit Rhinoceros Deer Beast; otherwise, he would not have been entrusted with such an important task.

He quickly approached, first nodding to Tang San, then turning toward the white-haired old man, and asked Tang San with a very respectful and humble tone, "Who is this gentleman?"

Tang San nodded to him, saying, "Mission accomplished."

The caravan leader immediately understood and hastily made a gesture of invitation, saying, "Please, follow me inside, both of you."

The old man didn\'t even bother with the courtesy of nodding. He wore an air of slight arrogance as he stepped forward. Tang San followed him respectfully, led by the caravan leader into the interior of the shop.

It must be said that the Spirit Rhinoceros Deer Beast\'s shop indeed deserved its reputation as one of the largest merchants on the continent. The interior of the shop was very spacious. After passing through a hall of thousands of square meters, the rest were rows of private rooms.

Through the caravan leader\'s introduction, Tang San and his companion learned that these private rooms were specially prepared for VIP customers. VIPs had the privilege to select items here, enjoying not only meticulous service but also the consideration of their privacy. The Spirit Rhinoceros shop was famous for its service and was favored by the strong of the Monster Clan and Spirit Clan.

The Spirit Rhinoceros Deer Beast leader then led the two through these private rooms, even further back into a luxurious quiet room.

The walls and door of the quiet room were obviously made of metal and also engraved with Isolation Formations. Clearly, it was a higher-grade presence than the private rooms in front.

The interior decoration of the quiet room was very luxurious. The soft fragrance provided a subtle and refreshing scent that left one feeling more alert and clear-minded after inhaling it.

The desk held an assortment of fresh fruits, with large sofas arranged around, and next to it was an enclosed room separated by a crystal-like material. Inside that room was a single large desk, but through the crystal walls, one could see that the room\'s walls were clearly marked with Isolation Formations, which were not merely for soundproofing.

"That room is for inspecting goods. Some special items can be hazardous and require isolation. Only our top-level customers make transactions here. During the transaction, our honored guests can remain outside and still see the condition of the items inside, to ensure their safety."

Tang San smiled and said, "How thoughtful. Is it safe here?"

The caravan leader replied, "Please rest assured about safety. This is the core area of the Spirit Rhinoceros shop, and we haven\'t had an incident in many years. Moreover, this place is completely isolated from the outside world; even divine consciousness cannot probe inside from the outside."

Tang San nodded, saying, "Good, then let me introduce him. This is the master I mentioned. I only know his surname is Lou, so you can just call him Master Lou."

The caravan leader hurriedly bent forward and said, "Master Lou, it\'s a pleasure to meet you. I am Xu Ziran, one of the main managers of the Spirit Rhinoceros store. It is a great honor to meet you."

"Hmm," Master Lou hummed softly through his nose but did not say much else.

Tang San hurriedly said, "I\'m really lucky this time, I actually found Master Lou. It\'s truly fortunate, and I have already conveyed to Master Lou the sincerity of the lord of the place and the strength of our Spirit Rhinoceros Deer Beast branch. Only then did Master reluctantly agree to come with me."

Xu Ziran, also a person with a clever mind, immediately bent forward again and said, "It must have been hard on you, Master."

Master Lou waved his hand and said, "There\'s no need for formalities, let\'s talk business."

Xu Ziran immediately sat up straight, "Before coming here, the lord of the place has already briefed me. If we are able to connect with you, whatever requirements you have, we will try our best to meet them. You see…"

Master Lou said indifferently, "Asura has told me about your situation. My conditions are simple, you can act as my consignment channel, but I cannot guarantee the quantity or the timing. However, when I need to deliver goods, you must pay, and I will set the price. Asura will act as our point of contact. I am usually in the Ancestral Court." While speaking, he flicked his hand, and an item had already flown towards Xu Ziran.

Xu Ziran caught the item with his hand, and as soon as he saw what it was, he almost immediately leapt to his feet, standing upright. With both hands, he held the item above his head respectfully and bowed, saying, "May the Sword Saint be forever safe."

What Master Lou had thrown to him was a sword-shaped token, representing the token of the Sword Saint Palace!

Xu Ziran\'s thoughts raced, and he respectfully returned the Sword Saint Order to Master Lou, "I understand. As for your conditions, Master, we have no problems with everything aforestated, but regarding pricing, it really needs to be evaluated based on the Array Plates you provide. You see…"

Master Lou waved his hand to interrupt him, saying, "Evaluations are based on the market. Whatever I sell to you all will have appeared at auctions. The auction price will be the standard."

Xu Ziran\'s eyes lit up, saying, "That\'s no problem, but could you possibly grant us exclusive selling rights?"

If they could secure an exclusive source of Array Plates, it wouldn\'t matter if they paid higher than the auction price. With the channels of the Spirit Rhinoceros store and some promotion, they were guaranteed to make a significant profit.

However, Master Lou shook his head and said, "You\'ve seen the token, do you think it\'s possible to give you exclusivity? I\'m already taking a risk by giving you some. The reason I\'m inclined to do this is firstly, because Asura once helped me out a lot, I\'m giving him some face, and secondly, to earn more money to buy more resources to study Formations. By the way, in the future, your payment can also be in the form of resources I need. These can also be valued at the auction price."

Without much hesitation, Xu Ziran immediately nodded and said, "Alright, let\'s do it as you say, Master."

Bartering with resources could provide a significant margin between their wholesale price and the auction price. He had never actually expected to secure exclusivity, especially since the other party had already revealed their association with the Sword Saint Palace, making exclusivity an impossibility. But even without exclusivity, securing a portion was still sure to be extremely profitable.

"Hmm," Master Lou nodded in satisfaction.

Xu Ziran said, "Master, may I know how many Array Plates you plan to provide to us? What types and quantities will there be?"

Master Lou glanced at him and said, "Hard to say, it depends on my mood."

Xu Ziran\'s eyes spun as he said, "I fully understand the difficulty of creating Array Plates, which are the crystallization of your efforts. Would this work? We could offer an additional ten percent on top of the auction price, but we hope you could supply at least half of your finished products to our Spirit Rhinoceros store."

What an outstanding businessman! An onlooking Tang San couldn\'t help but inwardly admire Xu Ziran\'s praise, as well as his surprise at Xu Ziran\'s status within the Spirit Rhinoceros store. After all, he was making such a decision without consulting the Spirit Rhinoceros Deer Beast King. Even with a ten percent increase on top of the auction price, how much profit could there be?
