After settling the Iron Tiger brothers down in the courtyard, Xia Fei returned to the logistics office.
Before he entered the courtyard, he saw many panicked fellows coming and going. It was even more lively when he reached the logistics office. After asking around, he found out that the news of Sun Dajin's family being destroyed had already spread all over the city, and these people were all here to pay back the money.
Not only were there natives of Planet Garda 83, but there were also people who did not live there who were rushing toward the Aurora Race, afraid that Xia Fei would finish them off if they were late. The Aurora Race had always been kind, and they did not need to pay interest for the money they owed. If Xia Fei went to their door and charged them ten times the interest, it would be terrible. Some people owed the Aurora Race money for many years, and the interest would accumulate until they went bankrupt.
That was when Xiao Beiwang saw Xia Fei. He waved his hand and called him over, saying, "Xia Fei, the patriarch is looking for you. Hurry to his study."
* Whoosh ~ *
The moment they heard Xia Fei's name, these people immediately quieted down and looked at Xia Fei suspiciously. It was rumored that Xia Fei was the one who bombarded the Sun Dajin family. Was this the same person?
Xia Fei shrugged nonchalantly and followed them to Xiao He's study. He knocked on the door and entered, only to see Xiao He talking to Tong Duoduo and Tong Jinliang with a smile on his face.
Xia Fei found a sofa near the window and sat down. He then lit a cigarette and casually asked, "Patriarch, why are you looking for me?"
Xiao He said: "The Tong family's patriarch wants to buy that healing type soul armament, the Little Golden Hammer. After all, this soul armament came from your master, so I want to ask your opinion."
Tong Duoduo and Tong Jinliang looked over expectantly.
Xia Fei nonchalantly said, "I've already given the soul tool to the race. The patriarch can do whatever he wants with it. There's no need to ask me."
Xiao He frowned and seemed to be muttering to himself. "The race lacks combat soul tools, and Elder Tong deserves it. The price he offered is very good, so I think it's better to use the Little Golden Hammer to exchange for a soul tool that's useful to the race."
Xia 28 nodded and cupped his hands to Tong Jinliang. "What price did Elder Tong offer?"
Tong Jinliang solemnly said, "Two grade 5 soul tools and six grade 4 soul tools, all of which are top-notch for combat."
Xia Fei was slightly taken aback. He slapped his thigh, seemingly a little surprised. "This price …"
"How is it?" Tong Duoduo asked anxiously.
"It's really nothing much." Xia Fei furrowed his eyebrows. "My master is a man with a wide range of hobbies. Though he's a Cleric, he doesn't like to forge soul tools. Oftentimes, he won't be able to come up with anything new even after a year or two. I heard that he spent four units of spiritual energy to forge this little golden hammer, so it should be worth four grade 5 soul tools."
Tong Jinliang's heart skipped a beat. Xia Fei's appetite was not small, directly asking the Tong family for four grade 5 soul tools. It must be known that grade 5 combat soul tools were hard to come by in the outside world, and asking Tong Jinliang to take out four in exchange for a grade 1.5 healing soul tool really made Tong Jinliang's heart ache.
Xiao He also furrowed his eyebrows, thinking that Xia Fei was asking for an exorbitant price. After all, the little golden hammer was only grade 1.5, and the Xiao family was already not losing out by exchanging it for two grade 5 soul tools. Furthermore, this was a transaction with a wealthy family like the Tong family. With this relationship, it would be much easier for them to get things done in the future.
How could Xiao He know that Tong Jinliang's thoughts were similar to his? Four grade 5 soul tools was indeed a sky-high price, but to be able to interact with Xia Fei's master, this money was not a loss. After all, that was a healing-type Ling Shen, and he was probably the only one in the entire Alpha Cosmos.
"Hehe, it's rare for Brother Xia Fei to ask. Four it is!" Tong Jinliang waved his hand and boldly declared.
"Grandfather! Isn't this a little too ridiculous?! Didn't I tell you before that the healing-type soul tool is only grade 1.5? "Tong Duoduo pouted, blaming Tong Jinliang for being too generous.
At this moment, Xia Fei smiled and said, "Miss Tong, if you think the price is too high, you can always back out. It's fine."
Seeing that the situation was not looking good, Tong Jinliang hurriedly stopped Tong Duoduo and said, "Some things can't be measured with money. Let's take a healing-type soul tool as an example. It's been many years since a healing-type Spiritual Master has appeared in the universe, and the things left behind by our predecessors are getting fewer and fewer by the day. This is what it means to be rare. Don't be fooled by the fact that this soul tool isn't of a high grade, but it has the ability to heal the soul of others. If we hadn't come early, I'm afraid that there would be more people coming to buy it in no time, and who knows how many times the price would have to be paid."
Xia 28 nodded. What Tong Jinliang said made sense. The greatest effect of a healing-type soul tool was to heal wounds to the soul. To those who urgently needed treatment, they would not hesitate even if they had to spend all their money. After all, no amount of money could buy their lives back.
Tong Jinliang and Tong Duoduo left, but Xia Fei was asked to stay behind by Xiao Hezai.
"Xia Fei, I heard that you used a soul cannon to flatten the Sun family this morning?" Xiao Hezai asked with furrowed brows.
Xia 28 nodded. "There is indeed something."
"Do you know that Sun Dajin's son, Sun Xiaojin, is working in the Chaos Society's inspection department?"
"I do."
"Then why are you so reckless, trying to kill someone from the Sun family?" Xiao Hezai raised his voice.
"The so-called killing one to warn a hundred is to kill those with strength. If I flatten the families of two commoners, not only will I not attract attention, I might even be ridiculed. Don't worry, patriarch. Xia Fei will bear all the consequences," Xia Fei said nonchalantly.
"Good, good." Xiao Hezai asked again, "Let's not talk about the Sun family for now. You spread the news that you're going to set up an academy specifically to recruit the descendants of the family. Those with talent will be sent to study spirit, while those without talent will be given soul tools after graduation. What's going on? "
Xia Fei shrugged. "That's indeed the case. Recruiting disciples is also my master's idea. We should keep the goodies within the family, so what's wrong with focusing on our own descendants first?"
"Did your master really say that?" Xiao Hezai asked in surprise. If this matter had not been Xia Fei's idea but had been instructed by that mysterious spiritualist, the result would definitely be different. After all, he was a spiritualist, and anyone would have to show him some respect.
Xia 28 nodded. "That's my master's idea."
"What about the soul tools?"
"It's also my master's idea."
Xiao Hezai could not ask any further. Since it was that spiritualist's idea, there was nothing he could do to interfere. However, Xiao Hezai could not understand what relationship the Aurora Xiao family had with that spiritualist, for him to do so much for the family.
Xia Fei, on the other hand, appeared very relaxed. What master? In truth, it was just Xia Fei trying to reverse the overly kind situation of the Aurora Family.
Since there was nothing else to do, Xiao Hezai let Xia Fei go.
Soon, after Xia Fei left, Xiao He found another old man in the study. He had white hair and a hunched back, coughing from time to time.
"So he's Xia Fei," the old man muttered to himself.
"Ol 'President, are we really going to let Xia Fei do as he pleases? It's only been a few days, but the family is about to be turned upside down, "Xiao He asked.
The old man smiled and muttered to himself, "I don't think there's anything wrong with it. The family should change! The world has changed. In the past, we had the help of a benefactor, so everything went smoothly and we never suffered too much.
"Now that the benefactor is gone, you've seen the family's current situation. If not for Xia Fei, we might have been reduced to a third-tier family. On the other hand, the appearance of a different person like Xia Fei has brought some fresh air to the family. Otherwise, given how the family is like a pool of stagnant water, its decline is only a matter of time.
"We've been idle for too long, and the people of the family have long since forgotten what a sense of crisis is. Let Xia Fei do what he wants to do."
After saying this, the old man sighed and disappeared. Xiao He nodded at the air and muttered to himself, "Fine, we'll do as you say."
Xia Fei finally returned to the villa after staying in the Aurora Species' Residence No.1 for a few days. Actually, Xia Fei preferred the villa. After all, it was quiet and more convenient to come and go.
However, Xia Fei could not bear to part with Xiao Beiwang and the old couple when they first met, insisting that he stay in Residence No.1. Now that Xia Fei had other things to do, he reported to Xiao Beiwang and returned to the villa.
After lunch, Xia Fei gathered Iron Tiger and his two brothers. "Have you guys considered the matter I mentioned this morning?" Xia Fei asked.
Iron Tiger said in a deep voice, "We've done some research. There's a planet controlled by our Sebastian Family not far from Garde 83. The person in charge there is a distant uncle of mine, and I'm planning to look for some manpower there.
Xia 28 nodded and said, "Remember, I'm looking for the most ruthless people in the universe. I don't care if they're ruthless to others, but they can't play any tricks in front of me. If I find anyone who doesn't follow the rules, I won't care if they're of the same race or if they're related to you."
Xia Fei's meaning was very simple. He had gathered these people to educate Xiao Huai and the others. If they were to use those dirty tricks on Xia Fei, Xia Fei would not allow it.
"Of course! If anyone doesn't listen to you, master, you don't have to do anything. I, Iron Tiger, will snap their heads off first! "Iron Tiger thumped his chest and vowed.
Xia Fei chuckled and took out a deerskin pouch filled with pearls from his spatial ring. It was heavy, probably at least tens of thousands of pearls.
"Keep this money well. As long as you do a good job for me, you won't be lacking in benefits. First, bring the people over for me to take a look. Those who are chosen by me will have food and drink provided. You'll also be given 10,000 pearls as pocket money every month. If you do a good job, you'll get a bonus at the end of the year." Xia Fei casually said.
Iron Tiger and the others hurriedly thanked him. They originally worked for Xia Fei so that they wouldn't be retaliated against, but they never thought that Xia Fei was not stingy at all. Not only did he keep his life, he even got money! This made the Iron Tiger brothers very happy.
The Sebastian Family would do anything dangerous, and it was all for the sake of money. Xia Fei's offer was not low, so there would probably be a large number of Sebastians willing to work for Xia Fei.
After giving his instructions, Xia Fei returned to his room and saw that Old Man Fuchen was already waiting for him.
Today, Fuchen's expression seemed a little strange. He took out a golden bug from his sleeve and placed it on the table. He said, "He's here for you, right? He accidentally barged into my array and nearly lost his life. "
Xia Fei took a closer look, and his expression changed drastically as he immediately roared!
"Xiao Xiao!"
PS: Tonight's midnight flight from Calcutta to Kunming, then Kunming to Shanghai, Shanghai to take the train home, then to the hospital. The entire process was like going around the clock.
His body was already very bad after being sick for so long. Hopefully, he could hold on. He would be on the road for the entire day tomorrow, so there would be no updates. The day after tomorrow would depend on his body's condition and the hospital's test results.
