After sending the two off, Lin Yi made his decision and left the school for the martial union branch.
Lin Yi said that he wanted to catch up with the first hall Master after they arrived at the martial union branch, but the first hall Master came rushing over before he could even reach the first hall Master.
"Steward Sima, long time no see! "Why didn't you tell me that you were coming back to the martial union branch? I could've made some preparations. I told you that I would treat you to a good meal, and today is a rare opportunity. You must have a good drink or two. I'll send someone to prepare it right away!"
The first hall master's attitude was different from before-he was so passionate that Lin Yi couldn't stand it.
"First hall Master, long time no see! I'm here to find brother Hua today, so I won't hold up the first hall master's business. We'll talk about the meal next time!"
Lin Yi's expression was cold, not giving the first hall Master any face at all.
The smile on the first hall master's face froze, and he was somewhat embarrassed.
However, he quickly adjusted his expression and continued to smile.""It's Understandable, understandable that steward Sima is busy! However, I just happen to have something to discuss with steward Sima today. As the saying goes, it's better to meet by chance than to invite someone. How about having a cup of tea first?"
Seeing that they were about to reach the language of the living things, the first hall Master clapped his hands and said,""We don't have to go anywhere else. Let's talk about the language of the living things together today! This guy seems to have some good tea in his possession. It's just nice for him to contribute it for us to taste!"
Lin Yi didn't say anything. He entered the language first. He was here to buy equipment from central, and the language was just an excuse.
Even if it was to help the first hall Master, Lin Yi wouldn't go to the first hall Master himself. It would only make the first hall Master think that he was an idiot.
Lin Yi's appearance at the martial union branch, saying that he was looking for the language of the living things, was actually a chance for the first hall Master.
If the first hall Master didn't want to ask for Lin Yi's help out of respect, then he'd just drop the equipment. Lin Yi didn't really care, and he wouldn't lose anything.
As expected, the first hall Master immediately appeared beside Lin Yi after receiving the news, following him into the language of monsters.
"First hall Master, younger brother Sima, what wind is it today that actually blew you two over together!"
The artifact language came out with a surprised look.
Lin Yi and the first hall Master weren't on good terms before, so it was a little weird that they were together.
"I just happened to meet him at the entrance!"
Lin Yi said casually before exchanging a few more words with the language.
The first hall Master also shamelessly interjected and said a few words before they took their seats.
The artifact language knew that the first hall Master wouldn't come to the temple without a reason. He definitely had something to do today. As for what it was, he more or less knew in his heart.
"You guys take a seat first. I'll go prepare some tea and snacks. I'll be there in a moment!"
The artifact language found an excuse to leave, leaving the living room to Lin Yi and the first hall Master.
When it was only the two of them left, the first hall Master didn't beat around the bush anymore and went straight to the point,"Steward Sima, there's indeed something very important I want to discuss with you today!"
"Our martial Alliance has already decided to cooperate with the central Chamber of Commerce. The other branches have their own cooperation projects. Our naduo martial Alliance branch is in urgent need of a batch of excellent equipment, and this equipment is currently only available at the central Chamber of Commerce!"
"Steward Sima is the liaison between martial League and central. We still need steward Sima to step in for this matter! After all, when dealing with the central Chamber of Commerce, no one can do it more readily than steward Sima!"
Lin Yi's fingers tapped lightly on the table, a faint smile on his face."First hall Master, if it's just buying equipment, anyone can do it, right? After all, the central Chamber of Commerce is open for business, so they can't push their business away. Do you want me to go and get a discount?"
After hearing this, the first hall master's face darkened, and the corner of his mouth twitched. He laughed dryly and said,""It's good to have a discount, but it doesn't matter if you don 't! In fact, the central Chamber of Commerce really doesn't want to do business with us. They even temporarily increased the price of the equipment by 50%!"
"Steward Sima, our martial union branch really needs this batch of equipment urgently. You should go to the central Chamber of Commerce and have a good talk with gray robe! As for the price ... It's fine if it's expensive, but the equipment must be delivered as soon as possible, and the quality must be guaranteed!"
Lin Yi raised an eyebrow, surprised.
He had thought that the first hall Master had come to him because Central's asking price was too high and ruthless.
Now, it seemed that the price was not much!
"Steward Sima, we had some misunderstandings before. It's all my fault. The equipment this time is really important! If steward Sima is angry, you can hit or scold me as you wish. I only hope that steward Sima can complete this matter!"
The first hall master's attitude became more and more humble as he spoke, and there was even a hint of pleading in his tone!
This time, Lin Yi was really shocked!
He had never thought that the first hall Master would actually recognize the wrong person. And his attitude was quite sincere!
"First hall Master, why is the martial Alliance's branch in such a hurry to purchase equipment? What happened?"
Lin Yi didn't say he'd help or not-he needed to figure out the reason first.
The first hall Master heaved a long sigh."It's indeed not good. A few nodes in the abandoned forest that our naduo martial Alliance branch is in charge of are unstable!" It's estimated that there's a possibility of continuous damage, so we have to make preparations to suppress the nodes on a large scale!"
"The situation this time is more serious, and it can't be easily dealt with. If we want to improve our combat power and success rate, we can only rely on the best equipment! This matter concerns the darkness magical beasts in the abandoned forest, so we can't be careless!"
Lin Yi blinked-the first hall master's worried face was really rare!
"Since it's related to the sealing node of the abandoned forest, I'll definitely do my best to help. I'll go to the central business meeting in a while and see if we can settle this matter!"
This was a serious matter, and he couldn't play dumb.
The first hall master's face lit up with a smile as he took out the list he'd prepared and handed it to Lin Yi with both hands.
"Steward Sima, please take a look. The equipment we need this time is all on this list! It didn't matter if the price was a little higher as it was negotiable. However, he had to complete the transaction as soon as possible! The situation is urgent and time waits for no one!"
Lin Yi took a look at the list-it was a huge amount indeed. Even if they were to trade at normal prices, the central Chamber of Commerce would still be able to profit greatly.
Now that the price had increased by 50%, it was even more of a huge profit!
The first hall Master didn't dare to bargain anymore. He just wanted to quickly buy the things and do the mission!
"Alright, I'll go to the central Chamber of Commerce now and try to negotiate with them. Whether it works or not, I can only try my best!"
Lin Yi kept the list and said goodbye to the beast before heading to the central Chamber of Commerce.
