In Josh's opinion, "Charles" was resolute and even risked his life for the family. He was by no means comparable to those liars. With Kanita's "experiment" first and Samuel as a hostage, more importantly, both parties also signed an equality contract. For this reason, Josh mercilessly killed the former servant to nullify the master-servant contract so that a new contract could be signed.
With this contract, both parties would be equal and cooperative for a hundred years. If "Charles" did not rebate according to the contract, he would be severely punished.
Therefore, Josh took out the funds with ease. As the lord who had ruled the Red Spirit Estate for many years, his accumulation was by no means comparable to Kanita. There was no need to sell everything. 50 million black crystal coins appeared in front of Chen Rui happily.
Seeing this large amount of shiny coins, Chen Rui really wanted to tell this sir lord that sometimes empiricism was more likely to make mistakes. He would use the latter facts to help Josh teach this lesson.
Kanita took out an additional 5 million to continue to participate in the shares. Chen Rui initially insisted on only 50 million to avoid losing more "profits", but under Kanita's repeated requests, he reluctantly agreed. Chen Rui took away 55 million this time. There was a monthly rebate. The first rebate was 20 million, the second was 40 million, and the third was 33.5 million. It was a total of 93.5 million black crystal coins.
Chen Rui accepted the money, then in front of Josh, he used the "item" to open the time portal to the "human world", walked in, and disappeared.
Josh saw it clearly. This Time and Space Gate was summoned by the human when the two of them were fighting. It was extremely mysterious. The human had given up the chance to escape previously. With this sincerity and the contract, there should be no problem. Now he could wait patiently.
Chen Rui actually returned to Town Moling through the [Star Gate]. At the critical moment of life and death facing Josh's strong pressure just now, he seemed to have a little more understanding of the use of the power of destruction. He urgently needed to find a quiet place to comprehend it.
He had wanted to immediately return to the remote hotel to cultivate, but he saw that there were many more guests in the hotel. These days, Chen Rui had booked a room and had been cultivating in it. He had even set up a soundproof system and had not gone out at all. When he left the hotel in the morning to look for Kanita, he noticed this lively scene, but he didn't ask about it because his business was urgent at that time. Now he had the intention to ask about it so that his training would not be disturbed unnecessarily.
"Two days later, it will be the triennial trade fair of the Red Spirit." The hotel's succubus waitress winked at the Great Demon, inadvertently showing him the deep cleavage revealed by her bulging breasts and V-neck. Unfortunately, it was like playing the lute to a cow. The Great Demon didn't even look at her.
"Trade fair? This is the first time I've heard of it. Tell me, what's going on? "
This weird man who hid in his room every day didn't have the charms of a Great Demon male. Was there something wrong with him? The succubus maliciously guessed for a while, but she didn't dare to easily offend this Higher Demon. She explained with a charming smile.
The trade fair of the Red Spirit Estate had a long history. It was held once every three years. People could trade or exchange goods, including special products, materials, equipment and other types. Each time, it could attract a large number of outsiders. It was originally held in the Red Spirit City, but due to Kanita's efforts, it had been held in Town Moling since 20 years ago.
This was considered Josh's care for his most important youngest son. For Joseph, who had stronger economic strength, it was also a means of balance.
The trade fair was a centralized commodity trade fair. It was a relatively grand trade form in the Demon Realm. The Demon Realm did not have auction houses or auctions yet. Chen Rui had long planned to set up an auction house in the Dark Moon. All the preparations were complete, and he was just waiting for the right time.
Chen Rui thought of one thing. He extorted a lot of good things from the Crystal Valley last time. The materials for the second "Thunderous Sound" were basically complete. He only lacked 2 rare materials. Besides, he also planned to make a scale armor, which required a lot of auxiliary materials. He wanted to see if he could gather them at this trade fair. Originally, he could go to the Shadow Empire's Mechanic Association to receive the master's "welfare" or exchange it with the reward contribution points for cracking the magic circle last time. It was just that "Master Arthur" was currently "missing", so it was not suitable for him to appear again for the time being.
This scale armor was an impromptu idea he came up with after his previous fight with Josh. The main material was the superb crystal dragon scales of the crystal dragon, Jacob. These superb dragon scales were even given to Chen Rui by Jacob's initiative at that time. If Sir Crystal Dragon remembered it now, he would definitely vomit blood in anger. Of course, compared with things such as the ancient runes slate and the Fountain of Resurrection, the crystal dragon scales were just child's play.
The crystal dragon was gifted to be immune to all magic powers. This scale armor naturally had the effect of greatly reducing the power of magic elements. If it could be made successfully, coupled with his own characteristics of anti-magic and [Damage Absorption], the success rate of dealing with magic trainers like Josh would be greatly improved.
The trade fair would begin in 2 days. At present, it was better to seize the precious inspiration to realize the power of the destruction breath. After instructing not to disturb, Chen Rui walked straight into the room, ignoring the hostess's deliberate provocation, causing the succubus to curse "incompetent man" in her heart.
Two days later, Chen Rui walked out of the room, looking energetic. Pressure was sometimes the best motivation. This time, he gained a lot, and his understanding of the power of destruction had further improved.
Due to the trade fair, the mobile population of Town Moling suddenly increased, and the streets seemed very lively. Chen Rui came to the location of the trade fair. It was a huge open space that was circled. From a distance, it was full of people. There were 4 passages for entry and exit. The entrances and exits were guarded by soldiers, and there were also patrolling soldiers to maintain order inside.
This situation was somewhat similar to Chen Rui's hometown on Earth. Every year at the exhibition held in the stadium, the merchants were vendors from other places, but most of them were fake and counterfeit goods. Chen Rui once helped his grandpa buy a pair of "Inner Mongolian yak leather shoes", but the soles broke in less than 2 months.
Walking into the trade fair, there were indeed a lot of vendors inside. Some were shouting loudly, and some hung a sign to promote the goods for sale or items to be exchanged.
Chen Rui walked for a while and exuded a little breath to scare away the 2 ignorant thieves. He stopped in front of a deserted stall. The stall owner was a dark dwarf. He had a lot of things, and some of them looked like antiques with a long history. Chen Rui was not interested in the so-called antiques. What he was interested in was a bottle of bauhinia gum that could be blended into the adhesive needed to make scale armor.
"Sir really has a good eye. This bottle of bauhinia gum is from the best bauhinia tree. It is 50 years old, and it only costs 3 black crystal coins."
The older the bauhinia gum, the stronger its toughness. For Chen Rui's use, 50 years was enough, but the price of this dark dwarf was not low. Although 2 black crystal coins were nothing for Chen Rui now, he suddenly missed the days when he used to bargain for cabbages in that world. He shook his head, "3 black crystal coins are too expensive. I can offer 1 black crystal coin at most."
The dark dwarf's eyes widened all of a sudden, "Sir, this price is too low. The best discount is only 10 purple crystal coins. This is already the price of a regular customer."
"3 black crystal coins, including the black spirit snake's snake tendon is more like it."
"That is a rare complete snake tendon! Its toughness is even stronger than the hydra's tendon! For both, I'll give you a discount. A total of 7 black crystal coins, no less! "
"4 black crystal coins. If you don't want to sell it, then forget it. I will find another stall." Chen Rui said, looking like he was about to leave.
"Wait! Sir, I'll sell it to you! "The dark dwarf sighed," Sir is even more shrewd than the smartest dark dwarf! "
Chen Rui took out 4 black crystal coins. When he saw the dark dwarf's flickering eyes, he knew that it was still a loss. His bargaining ability was actually not high. The girlfriend of one of his roommates in college was really good. If she transmigrated, she could probably get it for 2 black crystal coins at most.
However, not to mention 4 black crystal coins, even if there were 4 or 5 zeros behind it, it was just a drizzle. The poison dragon's treasure, crystal dragon's crystal mine plus Josh and his son's "investment". Although the storage warehouse could summarize and "compress" similar items, and the four-star warehouse space was already quite huge, there was only half of the space left.
If Chen Rui packed up and ran away now, then it would not be a problem for him to be corrupted freely for hundreds or thousands of years, but his goal was further. This time, if he wanted to play, he would play big.
"Sir, I don't know what else you need? There are some good things that I can't sell … "The black spirit snake's snake tendon and bauhinia gum had actually made this profiteer a profit. He also recommended some valuable antiques to him, such as artifacts used by a certain emperor. Unfortunately, Chen Rui was not interested, so he stood up.
"Please wait a minute! Sir! " The dark dwarf didn't want this rare customer to leave just like that. He revealed a mysterious look, looked around carefully, and took out a box from his pocket. There were 3 walnut-sized balls in it.
"This is called a 'burst bomb'. It is said to be an antique found in a ruin. As long as the yellow crystal is activated with power, it can explode horribly. The person who sold it to me once tested it. It can blast a big pit of tens of meters on the ground. It is more powerful than ordinary magic. 3 of them only cost 10 black crystal coins in total."
Enhanced version of grenade? But in this world, this thing didn't have much effect. A real powerhouse only needed an energy bomb or magic to far exceed the effect of this thing. After the dark dwarf repeatedly reminded him not to trigger the yellow crystal, Chen Rui picked up one and looked at it. Suddenly, his eyes narrowed.
On this so-called "burst bomb", there were countless tiny inscriptions engraved densely. It was Dragon Inscription!
The effect of the inscription was actually multiple suppression. In other words, the "big pit of tens of meters" was the effect after being strongly suppressed by the inscription!
This was not a burst bomb. According to the name on the inscription, it should be called "Zeray". If all the power was activated according to the sequence of the inscription, the power would at least increase by dozens of times!
God knows which Dragons made this terrifying thing when they were bored. God knows how many of them were wasted by those ignorant guys. If this thing was used properly, it might become a life-saving treasure.
Chen Rui's eyes fell on a folded leather scroll at the bottom of the box. It seemed to be quite old. He opened it and looked at it. A strange expression flashed across his eyes, then he put it back in its original place. The dark dwarf quickly introduced, "This treasure map was passed down from my ancestors. It is said to record the secret of the Dead Sea. This secret was left by the Dark Dragon Emperor who dominated the Demon Realm hundreds of thousands of years ago. There are countless treasures and artifacts in it …"
Chen Rui showed an indifferent look, "It's just an incomplete map. Even if it's true, looking at this, you need at least five or six pieces to be complete. If you get a complete one, you might be able to bluff people."
The dark dwarf smiled awkwardly, "This is indeed true, but a complete one … If I had it, would I need to come here to set up a stall?"
Chen Rui nodded, "Do you still have the burst bomb?"
"When I received it, there were only these three."
"Well, I want the three burst bombs. Together with this box and the broken map at the bottom, a total of three black crystal coins."
The dark dwarf was anxious and reached out to grab the box, "This is absolutely not possible! I will collect these three things for more than three black crystal coins. Let alone the ancestral treasure map, if you sincerely want it, I will give you 10 black crystal coins. I can't go any lower. "
Chen Rui saw him asking for an exorbitant price and sneered, "The things made by this kind of alchemist are extremely unstable. Even if they are not triggered, there is a possibility of explosion! If there is any problem, the entire trade fair will be in chaos because of the explosion! If you sell such dangerous things, as long as I shout, the patrolling guards will immediately arrest you. "
With that said, Chen Rui glanced at the patrolling guards walking this way. The dark dwarf was taken aback. He quickly wanted to grab the box, but he grabbed nothing.
Profiteer had a dejected look on his face: "Sir, three it is! Can't I count myself unlucky? I, Mumu, have been attending trade fairs for more than ten years, but this is the first time I see a guest like sir. "
"Don't pretend, I know you didn't lose anything."
Chen Rui put away the box calmly and left the booth, but he was ecstatic in his heart. I definitely made a big profit this time. As long as the restriction of the inscription is unlocked, the power of the 3 "Zeray" will definitely be quite amazing. Even a Demon Emperor or even a Demon Overlord will be afraid.
Not only that, the incomplete map was also an unexpected surprise because he already had 2 of this map. 1 was obtained from Dodo in the black rainforest, which should be left by the dead Dragons. The other was presented by Kanita when he encountered the little black horse a while ago. Including this one, he had 3.
The Dead Sea was located in the extreme north of the Demon Realm. The sea was vast and dangerous. It was a well-known dangerous place. He didn't know whether the treasure of the Dark Dragon Emperor was real or not, but the map he got today seemed to be the middle part. In the storage warehouse, when the 3 incomplete magic maps were put together, they actually merged together and became a whole. Even the seams on the edges were gone. Looking at the size, it seemed that there were still 2 more to gather. Now, Chen Rui didn't have the time to focus on this. Besides, some things just didn't appear when he was deliberately looking for it. Sometimes if he was lucky, it would automatically appear in front of him.
Chen Rui walked around the trade fair, bought some materials, and returned to the hotel. The materials needed for [Thunderous Sound] were too scarce, so he couldn't find them at the trade fair. The scale armor was gathered, but he had to design it another day before starting.
The following time … was still training.
Training, eating, sleeping, training … it was a cycle. Although it was boring and monotonous, he did not have the slightest thought of giving up.
Josh's words were right. There was never reaping without sowing. Especially power. To obtain it, one must be able to do what others couldn't.
Only by going through the hardships could one become the best. It was the same in any world.
