The way Wu Ye spoke was very skillful. He not only brought up his relationship with Yang Qi, giving him a lot of face, but also implemented a hunger marketing strategy. At the same time, he also revealed a message that he had stock in his hand, but also that there was not that much.
Zhou Cang was a smart man. After thanking Wu Ye, he asked Yang Qi to accompany him back to help carry things over. During the trip, he didn’t stop talking to Yang Qi, trying to worm some information out of him. However, Yang Qi himself didn't know all of Wu Ye’s plans, so how could he tell others in detail? Today, Wu Ye had not only given him a way to earn money, but also gave him enough face. Thus, he couldn’t be sloppy on behalf of Wu Ye. So, intentionally or otherwise, he revealed that Wu Ye had a rare peak second-order thunder ability user, and an intermediate second-order wind ability user (Qian Xin). As for what Zhou Cang made of the information, that’s none of his business.
When Zhou Cang came back from his home carrying the crystal nuclei that he needed to pay, his attitude was even more respectful than before.
Wu Ye didn’t know the price of jewelry, so Ji Yun, who had been mixing with Lan Cheng base’s local for a long time, helped to evaluate it. Had Ji Yun never been through any of this? He knew the procedure already so the price he offered was fair and reasonable. After the transaction, Zhou Cang was convinced.
“Young master Wu, I still have a few friends who are close to each other. They also want to get some valuable goods to bring to the capital. Do you think you could sell them the rest of your stock evenly?” Zhou Cang held the 20 bags of cigarettes as he opened his mouth to probe for details.
Wu Ye raised his eyelids and said, “There are only 10 left. After tonight, the price may not be the same as it is now.”
Zhou Cang licked his dry mouth, heart beating wildly. “I’ll let them know right away.”
Wu Ye’s subordinates were two second-order ability users. Yang Qi and Yan Li Na, this pair of brother and sister, were also second-order ability users, and seemed to have a lot of dealings with him. Surveying the whole Lan Cheng base, the people who managed to reach second-order level were notable figures. So far, there were 120 people who had reached peak second-order level, all of whom were registered with the base lord. Who actually dared to not give the Lan Cheng base lord the knowledge ? In the present crisis, Wu Ye agreed to let his people contribute, combined with the scarce goods he owned, who knew what his circumstances would look like in the future?
“I really don’t have much. You and your friends better keep a low profile. I’d like to live a peaceful life.”
“No problem. I promise they won’t say anything.”
After a while, Zhou Cang’s friends all came directly, carrying the crystal nuclei, gold, and other things required to purchase cigarettes.
Second young master Wu ‘couldn’t bear’ their attempt at coaxing and pestering. In the end, he sold them 15 bags of cigarettes in total.
Wu Ye never expected that the fake cigarettes he brought would be so easily sold out, leaving only 10 bags left.
“Rich, rich!” Wu Ye held the canvas bag stuffed with gold and jewels. He was so happy that he rolled around on the bed. Meanwhile, Qin Wuhua kept an eye on him, worried that he would fall off of the bed.
Just tonight’s transaction alone had netted him not only valuable gold, but even priceless jade. When he got back to HuaXia and sold all of these golds, he could earn millions. Furthermore, amongst the jewels traded, there was a palm-sized sheepskin jade pendant. From the first sight, it was obvious that it’s an old object. And, for any antique shop or jewelry shop, it was easily a treasure. Even if it’s sold through an underground channel, it could be sold for at least a million. And Wu Ye had managed to complete the transaction with some fake goods from Zhonghua. It was all thanks to his extensive experiences, otherwise, he’d certainly have let the cat out of the bag.
“Emma, acting cool is a motherf***ing art. This time, it’s thanks to you and Qian Xin that I can suppress the gathering.” Wu Ye knew that his low strength was a major fault. Furthermore, he’s pretty worried about Lan Cheng’s upcoming crisis. So, he decided, when he had raised enough points, he’d unlock the primary gene-chain.
Besides, no matter what the reason, the most uncomfortable thing for second young master Wu was the fact that as the boss, his strength was too far apart from his younger brother. Irrespective of whether the younger brother would have a second heart or not, he would still lose face if he remained like this.
Qin Wuhua usually saw Wu Ye acting aloof in front of people, but behind that, when he’s alone with him, he immediately revealed his simple-minded nature just like a child. His unguarded behavior in front of him made him feel all soft and warm inside. For the first time, he thought that he really didn’t want other people to see this type of foolish looking Wu Ye.
He couldn’t help but reach out and rubbed Wu Ye’s messy hair, a faint smile on the corner of his mouth. “You’re the eldest brother, and this is all what we should do.”
Wu Ye was a little unhappy at this and he patted Qin Wuhua’s hand. He felt that his tone was similar to coaxing little children, and there was a feeling that his ‘majesty of the eldest brother’ had been affronted.
However, Wu Ye himself didn’t realize that he didn’t hide his mind in front of Qin Wuhau. Of course, since many times Qin Wuhua acted as his ‘second’, Wu Ye subconsciously felt no need to be wary.
Qin Wuhua regretfully took back his hand before he sternly said, “You absolutely can’t tell anyone else that you can shuttle between two worlds.”
Wu Ye put the canvas bag aside, scratched his hair, and said, “I’m not a fool. You’re the only one who knows my secret. If someone else finds out, I’ll ask for your account!”
‘You’re the only one who knows’. It was just eight short words, but for a few seconds Qin Wuhua was shocked.
“You can rest assured. Even if I die, I won’t tell your secret to a third person.”
“Don’t be so serious. You make me feel embarrassed. If someone threatens to kill you, and you’re forced to betray me, I won’t blame you.” At worst, we could just move to another place. As long as he had saved enough for gene repair solution, he wouldn’t return to this man eat man world.
Qin Wuhua didn’t speak, but Wu Ye saw the unswerving determination in his eyes. Under the dim yellow light, he couldn't help but notice Qin Wuhua’s face, with its distinct edges and deep outlines making him look particularly handsome.
[TN: Kyaa! Are you finally falling Wu Ye? Are you? Are you? Are you?]
Mom, I’m so jealous!
Second young master Wu thought that when he went back to the zombie’s world, and made a lot of money, he would certainly be too excited to sleep at night. However, the truth was different. Just after five minutes of light being turned off, he had successfully met with Zhou daren. And, half an hour later, his hands and feet would act without any sense of shame and wrap themselves around a warm ‘object’.
Qin Wuhua had no ‘choice’ but to circle his hand on Wu Ye’s back. The warmth that was transmitted to the palm of his hand was soothing. Thus, he who hadn’t been able to sleep these past three nights, suddenly felt sleepy.
