Chapter 50: Wu Mo’s Plan
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
A hint of ecstasy flashed across Wu Mo’s face, because he had discovered a hint of gold amidst the mountainous pile of colorful materials!
Unique Treasure Hall’s warehouse was more than 200 square meters in size. Equipment and materials were placed on both sides of the warehouse in different categories, and the materials emanated blue, as well as green, rays of light. There was even a purple ray of light among them. However, at that moment, the three of them focused their eyes on a glass box in the deepest part of the warehouse.
The translucent box was emitting a constant golden light. It held one of the most important materials for casting Thor’s hammer, the Legendary Essence!
There were three different boxes that were parallel to the one with the Legendary Essence. All of them were releasing golden light. Although their illumination was not as rich as that of the Legendary Essence at the center of the warehouse, they were still top-tier materials!
The price of a single one of them would be more than ¥5,000,000 on the market. Besides, if they met a good buyer, the price could go up even more.
Under the display cabinet, there were all kinds of materials piled up like a small mound. At a glance, there seemed to be at least a thousand of items.
After they observed the materials, the three of them could not help but sigh internally. It seemed that Unique Treasure Hall had developed amazingly in the past two years by collaborating with the military. It was really unexpected for them to have so many collections.
By now, Wu Mo’s breathing had become much heavier. He followed the tenth elder and Manager Gao to the equipment storage area inside.
He also saw a few pieces of equipment that were glowing with purple light in the equipment pool. They were likely Unique Treasure Hall’s most expensive stock.
Moreover, Wu Mo found more than ten pieces of Soft Golden Silk Armor by the side. It seemed that they had all been made in the same batch.
“Mr. Wu, what do you plan to do with these materials? If you’re in a hurry to exchange them for money, Treasure Pavilion is willing to charge a 20% premium.”
The tenth elder was a little excited when he saw the precious equipment.
However, he was not planning on asking for the equipment. After all, he had already made an agreement with Wu Mo, in which Wu Mo would be the one to care for all of Unique Treasure Hall’s collections.
It was great enough that they could monopolize the market.
The tenth elder was just worried that Wu Mo would have nowhere to put so many materials.
Based on the tenth elder’s knowledge, although the Interspatial Ring was very portable, its internal space was still limited. It was impossible for Wu Mo to store so many items and materials.
On top of that, the latter was not a descendant of an aristocratic family. Wu Mo did not own any property in Shanglin City, and he was still a student of the Divine Arms Academy. He could not store all these items in his dormitory.
Thus, the tenth elder thought of purchasing some materials from Wu Mo so that it would be easier for Wu Mo to deal with them.
He looked at the excited Wu Mo before him and tried to ask for his opinion.
“Tenth Elder, you have already helped me greatly. How can I still allow you to lose money? I have my own ways to deal with the materials, but before that, I’ll have to trouble you with finding someone to move all these things into the main hall,” Wu Mo said without hesitation as he looked at the shiny green treasures.
Prior to his arrival, he had already thought of the problems he might face, so he formulated a solution on the way there.
As a blacksmith, he had plenty of experience in storing materials. As for whether his solution could be successfully implemented, he would only know once it was done.
The tenth elder nodded and immediately went downstairs to arrange for people to move the precious materials.
Meanwhile, Wu Mo moved to the hall. He found a relatively spacious place and directly brought out the cauldron that he had gotten from the bank.
The gilded feng shui cauldron was two meters tall, and the space inside was massive. When Wu Mo took out the cauldron, it occupied almost half of the hall.
The forgers and receptionists of Unique Treasure Hall were standing at the door, looking at the reflective cauldron with a dumbfounded look.
“Is this person sick? He actually brought that thing into the hall.”
“It’s obviously inferior. Putting that thing in front of the Unique Treasure Hall is lowering its class!”
“He looks like a villain who has achieved success. Just looking at him fills me with hate.”
The young blacksmiths immediately made disdainful comments.
Gao Yue stared at those blacksmiths with a cold gaze and sneered, “All of you have been fired from your jobs, yet you still have the gall to speak as if you’re Treasure Pavilion’s distinguished guests. Did I ask you to introduce yourselves?”
Although those forgers were good at refining equipment, they were all cowards when it came to arguments.
Hearing Gao Yue’s words, they shut their mouths obediently.
“Store Manager Gao, in the end, you’re just Treasure Pavilion’s lackey. What’s there to be proud of?”
Wei Ying’s expression was hostile. He narrowed his eyes and stared at Gao Yue as he enunciated each word clearly.
“Hehe, I might be a lackey, but it’s better than being a homeless stray dog. Even a large chamber of commerce can’t keep an eye on you. Don’t tell me the Wei family is keeping you as a guard dog?”
Gao Yue did not falter at all. Instead, he used the other party’s words to retaliate against Wei Ying with a face full of ridicule.
“You! The Wei family will definitely not let this go. Just wait and see!”
Wei Ying was so angry that his eyes turned red and flew into a fit of rage. The veins on his forehead were throbbing, and his temples were also puffing up and down.
He made that vicious statement with a ferocious expression. Then, with a wave of his sleeve, he turned around to leave.
At that moment, Gao Yue leaned against the door frame with a relaxed expression and softly reminded him, “Who told you to leave? The handover process isn’t over yet. We haven’t finished verifying and accepting Unique Treasure Hall. If you don’t sign the document, Treasure Pavilion might have to post some statements about the Wei family’s attitude on the Internet.”
“When that happens, don’t blame us if it affects the Wei family negatively.”
His voice drifted into everyone’s ears, and the blacksmiths who had originally intended to leave immediately stopped in their tracks.
Wei Ying forcefully halted his steps as well.
He turned around and stared at Gao Yue with a terrifying gaze as if he wanted to swallow the other party alive!
“Sigh… It’s getting late. We’re about to start taking inventory. Please take a good look.”
Gao Yue stretched his back lazily. Then, he patted the dust off his body and walked toward the hall.
Wei Ying almost clenched his fist until it bled. However, to get the receipt of the contract, he could only endure the pain in his heart and return to the main entrance.
Everyone looked at Unique Treasure Hall.
They discovered that many of the materials and equipment originally stored in the warehouse had been moved to the hall.
Moreover, the large, gilded cauldron was currently burning with flames, as though it was preparing for something.
Everyone was a little puzzled. Why did they need to bring the cauldron out to start a fire when they were taking inventory? Was Treasure Pavilion conducting some kind of ritual?
“Mr. Wu, all the equipment in the warehouse on the second floor have been taken down. There are a total of 307 pieces of equipment. Among them are 57 pieces of Ordinary equipment, 212 pieces of Rare equipment, 31 pieces of Premium equipment, and 7 pieces of Epic equipment.”
“Most of them have already been bound. Even if the people from Unique Treasure Hall don’t cooperate, it will be difficult to unbind them.”
The tenth elder had gotten people to move all the equipment down. Subsequently, he cupped his hands and did not hold back as he spoke to Wu Mo, who was adjusting the cauldron accordingly.
Wu Mo descended the ladder, and when he saw the pile of equipment that looked like a small mountain, the joy on his face was almost impossible to hide.
