Embroidered Uniform Guard: I Can Plunder Talents-Chapter 154 - 26: Supreme Cultivation Technique! The First Red-Quality Talent Entry Is About to Appear (2)

Chapter 154: Chapter 26: Supreme Cultivation Technique! The First Red-Quality Talent Entry Is About to Appear (2)

Closing the secret manual, Ye Liuyun slowly exhaled a breath of foul air, carefully placing the Flame God Vajra Skill’s manual in his chest.

Even if I’m going to cultivate, it should be done at home, not here.

Soon.

The people at the bustling building finished counting the amount of gold.

Looking at the clerks nodding at her, Xie Ling’Er still had a look of disbelief.

No way, you’re really rich.

If you’re truly wealthy, then how am I supposed to recruit you?

God knows when Ye Liuyun will be back next time, and Xie Ling’Er doesn’t want to waste this rare opportunity.

"Right!"

But before Xie Ling’Er could say anything.

Ye Liuyun, already having stored the secret manual, directly spoke up upon thinking of something.

"I asked you earlier to keep an eye out for some mage technique manuals, there should be a few by now, right?"

With the means of the bustling building, even excellent cultivation techniques can be obtained, so just getting mage technique manuals should be simpler.

"Uh! They did get them!"

Xie Ling’Er was momentarily speechless before nodding towards Ye Liuyun.

No way, since you have such high martial artist talent, wouldn’t it be better to just diligently cultivate martial arts? Why must you be fixated on mage technique manuals?

You wouldn’t actually want to cultivate both, would you?

As people retrieved the mage technique manuals, Xie Ling’Er couldn’t help but speak.

"Lord Ye, people’s energy is always limited, if you have exceptional talent in martial arts, it’s best to focus on cultivating those techniques first."

"Hmm, I understand!"

Ye Liuyun didn’t explain much, just casually nodded.

"..."

Seeing Ye Liuyun’s dismissive attitude.

Xie Ling’Er showed a face full of helplessness. Soon, her subordinates fetched several mage technique manuals.

At a glance, they were all fairly decent manuals.

This time, before Ye Liuyun could ask the price, Xie Ling’Er spoke first.

"If the lord is willing to help me with something? These mage technique manuals, consider them a gift from me to you!"

"..."

Why didn’t you say this when buying the Flame God Vajra Skill?

Clearly, the combined price of these mage technique manuals isn’t even half that of the Flame God Vajra Skill, and even if wanting to recruit Ye Liuyun, giving away a manual worth ten thousand gold still feels quite painful.

"I’d rather pay!"

Although not knowing what favor Xie Ling’Er wanted.

But paying directly seemed more straightforward, less troublesome.

"Oh, no!"

Seeing Ye Liuyun refuse, Xie Ling’Er approached him coquettishly.

"I know the lord isn’t in need of money, but I just want to make friends with you, moreover, I really do have something I need your help with."

"My rates are very high, these few manuals aren’t enough."

Seeing Xie Ling’Er looking like she intended to persist, Ye Liuyun didn’t stubbornly refuse.

Best to first see what benefits there might be.

Seeing Ye Liuyun relent, Xie Ling’Er was even happier.

"It’s actually quite simple. Every six months, the Xie Clan Commerce delivers supplies to each branch, and I have over a month left until the next delivery."

In the bustling building, things will eventually sell out, and without restocking, the missing items can’t just appear out of thin air.

Moreover.

The half-yearly restock always includes plenty of good things.

"I simply don’t have enough manpower here, so I hope the lord can help escort that batch of goods back."

Xie Clan Commerce’s approach to its offspring is quite laissez-faire.

Those capable step up, those incapable step down.

If the goods were robbed, though they would send internal experts to retrieve them, similarly, Xie Clan Commerce would think Xie Ling’Er incapable of managing this branch.

She managed to successfully take charge of a branch, and desires not to lose it like that.

"What happened with the previous guards?"

This certainly isn’t the first delivery, and it can’t have been sheer luck before.

Xie Ling’Er hesitated for a moment before finally speaking.

"They went missing!"

When saying this, her expression was somewhat unpleasant.

"Missing? More like hiding!"

Ye Liuyun chuckled and shook his head.

"So from a certain perspective, this time’s delivery will surely be targeted for robbery, right!"

It seems.

The previous delivery people have developed greed toward every delivery made by Xie Clan Commerce.

Having delivered so many times, they would certainly know the route by now.

Just unsure why they wouldn’t first pretend to escort, isn’t this an easier way to seize?

Xie Ling’Er didn’t deny it.

Seeing Ye Liuyun’s confusion, she shook her head and directly said.

"Every time there is a delivery, the personnel are strictly screened, and similarly, Xie Clan Commerce gives each a Spiritual Artifact that immobilizes them instantly should anything unexpected happen."

It appears.

Xie Clan Commerce knows well that pretending to escort makes it easier to intercept the goods.

"Do you think I’m someone who likes being restrained by others?"

Even though he didn’t care about the restraint brought by Spiritual Artifacts.

Ye Liuyun preemptively disliked putting such restrictions on himself.

"Not at all, rest assured, nothing like that will be given to the lord!"

One must use the right approach for different people.

"Moreover, with your skill level, you probably wouldn’t fancy those things."

When one’s ability reaches a certain extent, many external items lose their usefulness.

Xie Ling’Er knows clearly that among those goods, the most precious is merely a low-grade Spiritual Artifact, unimportant to Ye Liuyun.
