Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation The dagger Xia Fei took out was none other than the low-level soul tool he had just forged two days ago, October Flying Snow.
This chilling dagger was of little value to the current Xia Fei. In the past few years, Xia Fei's rank had been soaring, and he had more than one divine weapon in his possession. He even had three soul tools, so October Flying Snow had simply become a decoration, lying in Xia Fei's spatial ring all day long.
After obtaining the Soul Seal, Xia Fei learned the Feather Spirit Chant, transforming himself into a spiritualist who could forge soul tools. October Flying Snow was Xia Fei's first creation. Because he was not proficient enough and his grade was low, even though October Flying Snow was a soul tool, it was only a low-level soul tool. Let alone White Dragon Cry and Cursed Blade Annihilation, even the Verdant Azure Sword was much stronger than October Flying Snow, so it was useless no matter how much he thought about it.
Xia Fei realized that there was not a single soul tool on display in the massive weapons exhibition today. He also realized that he could consign it here, so he decided to sell October Flying Snow. In any case, Xia Fei had been rather tight on funds recently. More importantly, Xia Fei wanted to know how much the soul tool he had forged was worth and whether anyone would be interested in it.
Warriors had always been a money-burning profession, and it was difficult to do anything without money. If October Flying Snow could be sold for a good price today, Xia Fei would have one more way to make money in the future.
* Snap! *
Xia Fei closed the glass display case, and October Flying Snow lay quietly inside, looking very inconspicuous.
"Thank you, Mr. Xiang," Xia Fei said with a smile.
"You flatter me." Xiang Beiyang smiled and turned to the person in charge of the exhibition. "Old Pang, can you explain the rules to this young man here to avoid any misunderstandings?"
Manager Pang smiled. "Since it's a consignment sale, Brother Xia hasn't named a price yet. I'm sure you're trying to negotiate the price with the interested buyers, right?"
Xia Fei replied, "That's right. The price is hard to say, and it varies from person to person."
Manager Pang and Xiang Beiyang smiled knowingly at the same time. Xia Fei's meaning was obvious. The price depended on the buyer's capability. If a big boss showed up, Xia Fei would naturally ask for a sky-high price. This was the logic behind all businessmen being unscrupulous.
"If that's the case, Brother Xia can wait here so that we can discuss the price. Even if you have something to do, it's fine if you have to leave. Every cabinet has a serial number. If anyone comes looking for me, I'll let them personally discuss it with Brother Xia. As for the handling fee, for the sake of Boss Xiang, I won't charge a single cent," Manager Pang said with a smile.
Logically speaking, the items that were consigned to the Peaceful Peace Shop would have to be sold as a commission of 10%, but no matter how the surnamed Pang looked at it, this snow coloured dagger did not look like something valuable. It would already be good if it could be sold for a few thousand beads, and even if the commission was higher, it would not exceed a thousand beads. (, view the latest update of this book)
Peaceful Peace Shop was rich and overbearing. Instead of asking for such a small sum of money, it was better to give Xiang Beiyang some face. In recent years, Xiang Beiyang's exotic beast business had been on the rise, and he had quickly become a first-rate merchant on Red Dwarf Planet. Thus, it was in Peaceful Peace Shop's interest to befriend him.
With that said, Manager Pang took his leave and instructed the staff at the exhibition to keep an eye on Xia Fei. After all, he was a young man that Xiang Beiyang had personally brought over, and he had even shamelessly asked for a cabinet for Xia Fei. Manager Pang also wanted to know Xia Fei's background and the true value of this dagger.
As for Xiang Beiyang, he stood behind the counter with Xia Fei, chatting with him. Unfortunately, Xia Fei was a stubborn person, refusing to say a word no matter how Xiang Beiyang tried to trick him. Seeing that the time was up and no one was interested in October Flying Snow, Xiang Beiyang had no choice but to take his leave, saying that there was someone waiting for him upstairs to discuss business.
Right after Xiang Beiyang left, a burly middle-aged man with a ponytail appeared in front of the counter. He had a rather impressive aura and was well-dressed. He could be considered one of the guests today, and the people who saw him all called him Third Master Leng with a smile.
Third Master Leng stared at October Flying Snow for a few minutes before he smiled and said to Xia Fei, "The material and workmanship of this dagger are pretty good. There's still a bit of chill left on the blade, so I believe it must have had the ice attribute in the past, but for some reason, this dagger has lost its greatest characteristic. It's no longer cold, which is quite a pity.
"Logically speaking, a dagger like this shouldn't be worth more than two thousand pearls in a weapons shop, but I can see that this dagger is full of killing intent. It must have seen a lot in the past, and even without the chill, the killing intent is still there. It's perfect for warriors who lack killing intent to make up for it. How about this: I'll pay four thousand pearls."
The people around him all cheered after hearing this.
"Third Master Leng is indeed an expert in the field of weapons. Your analysis is very logical."
"Of course. Third Master Leng runs a weapons shop, so how could he possibly make a mistake?"
Xia Fei shook his head and softly said, "I'm sorry."
Seeing that the man was rather polite and that his analysis was reasonable, Xia Fei was too embarrassed to be too direct. Third Master Leng was right. October Flying Snow had killed quite a number of people with Xia Fei, so it was only natural for him to have a violent killing intent. With this temperament, it was reasonable for him to ask for four thousand pearls.
However, Third Master Leng still failed to see the real change in October Flying Snow. It was no longer a dagger but a low-level soul tool! Four thousand pearls, and Xia Fei would not even let him look at it.
Third Master Leng was slightly stunned. He did not expect Xia Fei to reject him so firmly. However, after thinking about it, Third Master Leng smiled.
"Forget it. Who asked me to like this dagger? Not only did it see a lot in the past, but its owner must also be an expert with a decisive temperament. This dagger is already one of the best among daggers of the same rank. I'll pay ten thousand pearls to be happy with it."
Third Master Leng was quite straightforward and immediately raised the price to ten thousand pearls.
"Ten thousand pearls? Is this dagger worth ten thousand? "
"Of course it's not worth it. Didn't Third Master Leng say that spending money to be happy? It looks like Third Master really likes this dagger."
Everyone believed that Xia Fei should be satisfied with this. Anyone who could enter the Peaceful Peace Arms Exhibition had to have something up their sleeves. Third Master Leng actually offered ten thousand for a dagger that was worth less than five thousand in the market. There was no reason for Xia Fei not to sell it.
To their surprise, Xia Fei did not even reply this time. All he did was shake his head, and his attitude was even more determined than before.
"Are you messing with me?!" Third Master Leng immediately felt a little embarrassed. He was already at Xia Fei's mercy by offering ten thousand pearls for a dagger that was worth five thousand, yet Xia Fei still did not agree to it. It made Third Master Leng feel that Xia Fei was purposely messing with him.
Everyone let out a series of exclamations as they looked at Xia Fei with a strange expression.
"Twenty thousand pearls!" Third Master Leng's face darkened as he raised two fingers.
"Sir, I suggest you look elsewhere," Xia Fei said in a tone that was neither servile nor overbearing.
Since Third Master Leng did not know that it was a soul tool, he naturally would not be able to offer a satisfactory price to Xia Fei. Xia Fei could not be bothered to bargain with him.
"You!" Third Master Leng was about to explode from anger. He flicked his sleeves and left with an ashen face.
The onlookers were also very dissatisfied with Xia Fei. They had spread the rumor that Xia Fei did not know what was good for him, treating a piece of trash like a treasure. Soon, everyone knew about Xia Fei's existence.
"I can't help it. The Red Dwarf isn't the core region of the Alpha Universe. The people here aren't very knowledgeable, either. They can't even tell if it's a soul tool." Yuan shook his head.
Xia Fei felt bored standing there, so he went to the door to smoke two cigarettes. When he returned, he saw two more people at the counter. One was an old man, while the other was a skinny middle-aged man. They were staring at October Flying Snow and whispering to each other from time to time.
Xia Fei could tell that the old man had an extraordinary aura. He would not have such an aura unless he was extremely wealthy. Xia Fei was very familiar with the middle-aged man, so he must be a warrior.
"I can't see through the old man, but the middle-aged man must be a Soul Hunter. His rank is very low, and he doesn't have much combat power," Yuan quietly commented.
Xia Fei stood behind the counter without saying anything, not looking at the two.
"Young man, is this dagger yours?" the middle-aged Soul Hunter asked politely.
"Yes, it's called October Flying Snow."
"October Flying Snow? Great name! Can you let us have a look at it? "
Since they were Soul Hunters, they must have noticed that October Flying Snow was a soul tool. Xia Fei was more than happy to let them have a look. After all, they were experts, and they would not make a fool out of themselves by asking for 20,000 pearls for a soul tool.
Xia Fei opened the counter and handed October Flying Snow to the middle-aged man. The moment he received the dagger, the man's wrist shook a little. This detail did not escape Xia Fei's eyes.
"How is it?" the old man asked softly.
"Lord Tang, I dare say that this is a soul tool!" the middle-aged man said in a deep voice.
"It's really a soul tool?!" The old man with the surname Tang's eyes lit up, and he seemed very excited.
"I can't be wrong. Not only is it a soul tool, but this dagger also has a strange aura that I don't understand."
Old Man Tang was shocked again as he hurriedly asked, "Mister Song, even you can't see through a soul tool? Doesn't that mean that this item is extraordinary?! "
The Soul Hunter with the surname Song nodded and said, "It's extraordinary. It's definitely worth buying."
Xia Fei heard everything clearly from the side. It seemed that there were no experts on this Red Dwarf Star. A soul tool that Xia Fei casually forged actually got a Soul Hunter to say that it was extraordinary.
At this moment, a commotion could be heard from outside.
"Hello, Boss Tai!"
"Boss Tai's weapon exhibition today is very impressive! As expected of Peaceful Peace Merchant. In the entire Red Dwarf Star, only your merchant company can afford to spend so much money! "
Xia Fei looked up and saw that it was the big boss of Tai Ning Hang. The surrounding people all made way for him as they fawned over him. When he saw Old Man Tang, Boss Tai actually disregarded his status and jogged over.
"Old Man Tang! Why are you here? " Tai Ning hurriedly bowed and was extremely respectful to that man with the surname Tang. However, this Old Man Tang did not even bother with him. It was clear that the two of them were not on the same level.
"Xiao Tai, I would like to borrow a quiet place from you to discuss business with this little brother." Old Man Tang said without looking sideways.
This instruction actually made Tai Ning extremely touched. He hurriedly ordered his subordinates to open the VIP lounge and respectfully invited Old Man Tang in. As for Xia Fei, Tai Ning was also very respectful.
Everyone only knew that Tai Ning was a first-rate merchant company on Red Dwarf Star. When had they ever seen this old man bustling around? They were even more suspicious, unable to figure out where Old Man Tang and Xia Fei came from.
This scene was witnessed by Xiang Beiyang. He was here to discuss business with Peaceful Peace Merchant, and those ten Lustrous White Dragonflies were also what his family wanted.
"Boss Tai, where did this Old Man Tang come from?" Xiang Beiyang asked softly. Seeing Xia Fei and this old man with such a high status enter the VIP lounge, Xiang Beiyang's curiosity was at its peak. Thus, he came over to ask for information.
