Liu Chai was stunned when he heard Xiao Tian mention a bounty mission.
In fact, his understanding of the Sea Trading Association came from a marine tribe during an island exploration.
According to them, the Sea Trading Association was a huge alliance of trade associations. The members of the trade associations appeared in various seas, collecting spiritual materials and treasures. Moreover, every member of the trade associations had a special characteristic, which was that they would always have a Specter Ship.
After knowing the characteristics of the members of the trade associations, Liu Chai came up with the idea of impersonating a trade association to cheat.
However, he did not know anything about a bounty mission, so he was speechless.
After thinking for a while, Liu Chai asked, "Lord Xiao Tian, what do you want to entrust me with?"
"This matter is infuriating. To be honest, a treasure has been lost on Insect Island recently. I want to entrust the Demolition Chamber of Commerce to help me find out which clan the thief belongs to!"
From Xiao Tian's point of view, the Sea Trading Association was powerful and had eyes all over the sea. If they could accept this task, it would be easy to find the thief.
After all, only by finding the Son of the Sea could he answer to the Sea King.
Hearing Xiao Tian's explanation, Liu Chai pretended to be calm, but in fact, he was overjoyed.
"Lord Xiao Tian, I wonder what kind of treasure has been lost that you want to entrust the trade association to investigate. Our bounty is not small!"
Xiao Tian's face turned gloomy, "The Son of the Sea!"
"What! It's the Son of the Sea! This thief is so daring to steal such a treasure! "Liu Chai exclaimed.
"That's right. Is your trade association willing to accept this bounty? As long as you can find out which clan the thief belongs to, I'll handle the rest myself!"
"However, I'm confused. Since it's a treasure like the Son of the Sea, why didn't you send a large number of soldiers to guard it? I can understand if it was robbed, but I don't understand why it was stolen. "
When Liu Chai asked this question, he almost laughed out loud, but he held it in.
Liu Chai's question made Xiao Tian's face turn pale.
The Son of the Sea was such a precious treasure that he naturally sent a lot of soldiers to guard it. Moreover, it was the few strongest orcs under him who took turns to guard it. However, there had never been any mistakes in the past few years. This made the orcs who were guarding the Son of the Sea a lot less vigilant, which led to the current predicament.
"This spiritual field is in the outer circle of the island. I was negligent, but is your Demolition Chamber of Commerce willing to accept this commission?" Xiao Tian didn't want to explain too much. He took a deep breath to calm himself down.
"Then your commission fee …"
"20 stalks of Derived Spiritual Rice as a deposit. I'll give you another 30 stalks as long as we can find the clan behind this!" Xiao Tian felt his heart ache when he mentioned the price.
However, he knew the price of losing the Son of the Sea, and the members of the Sea Trade Association were a bunch of greedy fellows. If the price was too low, they would definitely not work hard. Hence, Xiao Tian gritted his teeth and said.
Liu Chai was overjoyed when he heard Xiao Tian's offer.
His original idea was to negotiate a good price with Xiao Tian as a sea merchant. When it was time to deliver the goods, he would find a chance to put all the things into the space and let Xiao Tian lose everything.
As for the issue of safety, Liu Chai and the rest had already planned to use their lives to scam Xiao Tian. They had no intention of going back alive at all.
However, compared to the four stalks of Derived Spiritual Rice, Liu Chai wanted the 50 stalks more.
Soon, the orc who went to get the spiritual materials returned and passed the bag containing the Derived Spiritual Rice to Xiao Tian.
Xiao Tian opened the bag and took a glance before passing it to Liu Chai.
"Are you willing to accept this commission? Here are 24 stalks of Derived Spiritual Rice. 20 stalks are the deposit. I'll pay you another 30 stalks of Derived Spiritual Rice after this is done! "
"Alright! The Demolition Chamber of Commerce will definitely bring you the thief within three days! "Liu Chai said confidently.
Xiao Tian nodded.
In fact, his trust in Liu Chai came from the giant Specter Warship that was docked at the dock.
The most obvious feature that distinguished the strength of a member of the Sea Trade Association was their carrier.
Ordinary members of the Sea Trade Association were using Specter Warships as carriers.
The Specter Warship owned by Liu Chai was basically owned by the members of the Sea Trade Association who were more influential.
The cost of building such a Specter Warship was huge. It required a lot of resources and the warship would be even more powerful after it was completed. Hence, Xiao Tian felt that a member of such a large Sea Trade Association would definitely not take 20 stalks of Derived Spiritual Rice for himself.
However, what he did not know was that in Bei Li's settings, these Specter Warships were like empty shells. They were not finished products at all. Instead, players would need to collect the materials and cultivate them bit by bit. However, Xiao Tian was not aware of this.
Liu Chai was overjoyed as he took the Derived Spiritual Rice from Xiao Tian. He then said in the guild live chat channel,
"Brothers, let's trade the goods with them this time. If we don't sacrifice our children, we won't be able to catch the wolf. I'm going to scam Xiao Tian again."
A few of his followers put down the two boxes upon hearing this.
Xiao Tian's eyes flashed with excitement when he saw Liu Chai's promise. He knew that he still had a chance. With the help of the Sea Trade Association's powerful informants, he might be able to take back the Son of the Sea.
After the trade was completed, Liu Chai and the rest calmly returned to the dock under the guidance of the orc guide.
The spiritual fields and spiritual plants along the way made Liu Chai and the rest envious. They swore to themselves that they would destroy this place sooner or later.
After boarding the warship and sailing a certain distance away, Liu Chai and the rest took off their masks and laughed heartily after making sure that Insect Island could not detect their movements.
"This Xiao Tian is really an idiot. Twenty-four stalks of spiritual materials. We're rich! We're rich! "
"Boss, why did you leave the two boxes behind? We spent a lot of money on those spiritual materials and equipment," one of his followers said with a pained expression.
"Idiot, I'm setting a trap for them. Didn't you hear him say that we can get the remaining 30 stalks of Derived Spiritual Rice as long as we find the thief?"
"Where are we going to find the thief?" The follower was confused.
"Aren't you and I the thief that he's looking for?" Liu Chai laughed heartily. He was already planning the next trade in his mind.
