The elegant middle-aged man was calm and composed, always maintaining a gentle and indifferent smile on his face: "Miss Zi has a deep prejudice against Wen. Why don't you go in and have a drink, and I will explain a few words to you."
"Hmph!" Zi Xin squinted at him: "I don't want to listen to your nonsense. The only thing I came here for today is to return my sacred stone!"
Bi Hetu stood calmly on the side, standing like a Vajra Buddha in the center of the door. Several guests who were planning to enter immediately turned around and left when they saw this posture.
A trace of gloom flashed in the eyes of the elegant middle-aged man, but his face remained calm, and he smiled and said: "Your matter has been explained to me by the shopkeeper. It is related to the credibility of my Wanbao Hall. Wen did not dare to be careless, so he asked the law enforcement elder of the Star Alliance Chamber of Commerce for instructions.
, ask him to uphold justice, Miss Zi can’t trust Wen, but she should trust the law enforcement elder, right?”
Ninety percent of the business of the Star Alliance Chamber of Commerce is controlled by itself, and only a few businesses are controlled by outsiders due to human relationships.
For example, in the past, the Star Alliance Chamber of Commerce expanded its territory and received help from elegant middle-aged families.
In exchange, this family can obtain the operating rights of several shops in the Star Alliance Chamber of Commerce.
There are many similar shops.
In order to ensure the credibility of the Star Alliance Chamber of Commerce and not be implicated by these external shops, the Star Alliance Chamber of Commerce established a law enforcement hall to strictly supervise these shops.
Once something damages the credibility of the Star Alliance Chamber of Commerce, the operating rights will be revoked immediately.
The punishment is quite severe!
Moreover, the law enforcement elders are under the jurisdiction of the Star Alliance Chamber of Commerce and have always acted fairly.
Zi Xin felt relieved, hummed, and waited quietly for the law enforcement elder to arrive.
After a cup of tea, a middle-aged man with blond hair and a smooth face entered the shop.
The middle-aged man surnamed Wen immediately stood up to greet him: "See Elder Li."
Elder Li looked at him indifferently, went straight to the seat of honor, and sat down with Da Ma Jin Dao: "Why do you call me to come here?"
The middle-aged man surnamed Wen had a look of helplessness: "The thing is, this girl Zi sold three kinds of materials in our shop, but later came back, slandered us for giving false sacred stones, and made trouble again and again. It was only as a last resort that we asked for help.
Elders come here to administer justice."
With just a few words, he smeared Zi Xin and others as the culprits.
Elder Li nodded slightly and looked at Zi Xin: "I will count the sacred stones in person. I am not responsible for leaving the cabinet. Have you ever counted them in person?"
Zi Xin nodded: "We checked it out in person, but the sacred stones were tampered with. At that time, there was no problem at all. Only after inspection did we find that they were all discarded sacred stones!"
She also believed too much in her own channels. When she was introduced to the Wanbao Hall, she did not investigate the background of the hall and just fell in love with it.
"Bring the discarded sacred stone." Elder Li said calmly.
Giving a customer a discarded sacred stone, once confirmed, will seriously affect the credibility of the Star Alliance Chamber of Commerce, and cannot be done carelessly.
After getting the small bag, Elder Li glanced at it, and sure enough, they were all dull, used and discarded sacred stones, without any value.
He took out one at random and threw out a hexagonal sieve at the same time.
The sieve kept rotating, and each side emitted a ray of light that enveloped the abandoned sacred stone.
After all six rays of light were irradiated, there was no reaction on the surface of the sacred stone.
Elder Li raised his head, looked at Zi Xin with a deeper look, and said in a cold tone: "There are no traces of manipulation on the sacred stone."
"I am absolutely telling no lies!" Zi Xin took out his six-star black stone: "With my status, I don't need to deceive hundreds of sacred stones, right?"
Seeing the six-star black stone, Elder Li's eyes softened slightly.
To become a six-star Black Stone VIP requires spending an astronomical amount of sacred stones from the Star Alliance Chamber of Commerce. Such VIPs are all high-status people, and there is really no need to make trouble for a hundred sacred stones.
He couldn't help frowning and looking at the middle-aged man named Wen.
In recent years, the affiliated shops have been relatively honest under the supervision of the law enforcement elders, but there are more or less surreptitious activities. The elders like them have a clear mind, but there is no evidence.
The middle-aged man surnamed Wen didn't change his expression and said: "To be honest, this girl Zi is an old acquaintance of me and has many prejudices against me. This time I learned that my Wanbaotang came to the Yu Dynasty and came here to cause trouble.
It makes me feel even more helpless.”
"In addition, as far as I know, her six-star black stone does not belong to her, but comes from someone else. Whether she uses it to defraud or defraud, I don't know."
Elder Li raised his eyebrows, looking at Zi Xin, his expression returned to calm, neither warm nor cold.
Standing up, Elder Li returned the discarded sacred stone to Zi Xin and said: "If Miss Zi has evidence, this elder will strictly enforce the law and deprive Wanbao Hall of its credibility. But if not, please move away and disrupt the order of the Star Alliance Chamber of Commerce, which will affect the
Your VIP rating."
He put his hands behind his back and looked at Zi Xin.
Zi Xin was angry and wanted to continue reasoning but was grabbed by the armored man and left Wanbao Hall.
"There are no unexpected results." Bi Hetu had expected it.
If the other party is timid and fearful of trouble, you may be able to get it back by threatening him.
But if you are not afraid of trouble, it is hopeless to ask for your own sacred stone without any evidence.
The middle-aged man surnamed Wen looks elegant, but is actually cunning. He can't be intimidated by threats.
"What should we do?" Zi Xin was unwilling.
Bi Hetu sighed: "What can we do, the only way is to tell Mr. Su truthfully."
That's it, unless they take it by force.
But since they have requests from the Star Alliance Chamber of Commerce, it is not appropriate to cause trouble.
Secondly, if we directly rob him, I am afraid that this will play into the hands of the middle-aged man surnamed Wen.
Zi Xin bit her lips slightly: "I caused the loss. I will find a way to compensate Brother Su myself."
It's just a total of one hundred and thirty low-grade sacred stones. Where can I get it for a while?
"Haha, Miss Zi, although you didn't get any money from Wanbao Hall, I can't help but give you one for the sake of Miss Zi running errands." The middle-aged man surnamed Wen took out a sacred stone and threw it at the door.
With a faint smile, he turned around and left: "Keep it, I won't give it away!"
Zi Xin was extremely angry, with a gloomy face, and walked into the crowd without even looking at the sacred stone.
Back in the training room, Su Yu was still in retreat, which made her slightly relieved, but then she became deeply distressed.
Two months passed by.
There are only three to five days left in the three-month period agreed with the white-browed old man.
Bi Hetu and Zi Xin were waiting outside anxiously.
At this moment, a loud banging sound suddenly came from the training room behind him, and a frenzied divine energy from heaven and earth gathered in the sky above the training room from all directions.
Then, like a whale, it was swallowed up by an invisible invisible force.
Immediately afterwards, a ray of Qi rainbow penetrated the secret room, giving people a good amount of spiritual pressure.
"The pinnacle overlord?" Bi Hetu flashed his eyes.
Zi Xin's eyes were full of surprise: "There are no obvious signs of breakthrough in his cultivation three months ago! I didn't expect that he would break through so quickly!"
The two of them were surprised when the stone door opened and a silver-haired young man wearing a plain robe and a crystal crown stepped out.
The eyes are restrained, the crystal light reflects off the surface of the body, and the whole body feels like a mountain of pressure.
"Master Su."
"Brother Su!"
The two of them both stepped forward and Su Yu smiled: "I'm sorry, I didn't expect that this retreat would be so long, which made you two wait for so long."
Bi Hetu said: "Young Master's words are serious. The three-month period has not come yet, so why wait for so long?"
Zi Xin had a look of hesitation and guilt on his face, and after a while he said: "I'm sorry, Brother Su, I messed up the exchange of materials for the divine stone."
Su Yu was startled, and after thinking about it, he remembered what she was talking about.
"Haha, it doesn't matter. Those materials were originally given to you. If you can't redeem them, you can keep them for yourself." Su Yu waved his hand nonchalantly. They were just three Lingbao materials.
The more he seemed not to care, the more guilty Zi Xin felt, and he revealed the truth in silence.
When he learned the whole story, he frowned.
"Forget it, it's just a few materials, not worth much." Although Su Yu was a little unhappy, he didn't bother to go find trouble for a few things.
Having said this, Zi Xin and Bi Hetu looked at each other and smiled helplessly.
As expected, he is very wealthy and refuses the materials for hundreds of sacred stones.
"By the way, it's a rare time to come to the black market. I want to buy some classics that introduce the civilization of the outside world, and I hope Miss Zi will lead the way." Ever since he learned that there are behemoths such as the Dark Star Civilization, Tai Chi Civilization and even the Zodiac Palace in the vast interstellar space, Su Yu is very interested in talking to him.
I am particularly interested in foreign civilizations.
Zi Xin smiled: "Leave it to my little sister, who is very familiar with the black market."
Under her leadership, they soon arrived at a shop specializing in selling various classics.
Compared with other shops, the classics shop looks much cooler.
"Brother Su, if you want to know the basic information about extraterrestrial civilizations, I suggest you read this "Nine Volumes of the Star Territory". It has detailed descriptions ranging from currency circulation to the introduction of all races."
"If there are forces from all sides, it is recommended to read "Travel Notes of Ten Thousand Realms", which will be of great benefit to your understanding of the distribution of civilized forces in foreign lands."
"In addition, there are many techniques from foreign civilizations here, and sometimes you can find good things unexpectedly."
Really? Su Yu and Bi Hetu were quite interested.
After taking down "Nine Volumes of Star Territory" and "Travel Notes of Ten Thousand Realms", the two browsed the exercises of various races.
These have been translated into the common language of the Star Territory, and everyone can understand it.
After a brief scan, Su Yu didn't find many advanced techniques.
Presumably, if it really exists, shops will not easily sell it.
On the other hand, Bi Hetu and Zi Xin found one or two classics that were quite useful to them, and they immediately took them down happily.
The three of them each had their own gains and came to the front desk to trade.
"Miss Zi, please pay for Su again. I will give you the corresponding resources later."
Zi Xin smiled sweetly: "Put it on me!"
"Shopkeeper, three books on cultivation techniques, a few volumes of geographical classics, and how many sacred stones?" Zi Xin asked.
The shopkeeper is over eighty years old, with gray hair and an indifferent look on his face.
He was concentrating on registering something at his desk. When he heard this, he raised his head. When he glanced at Zi Xin, his face suddenly sank: "Not for sale!"
Zi Xin was stunned: "Then why do you open a shop?"
"Hmph!" The white-haired shopkeeper sneered: "When others come in, I will naturally welcome them. As for you, huh, I can't afford your business!"
"Old guy, please speak clearly!" Zi Xin said angrily.
The white-haired shopkeeper sneered: "Your Excellency's extortion of Wanbaotang has spread throughout the black market. For this reason, we have invited law enforcement elders. Hehe, my shop is small and weak, but it cannot withstand the fright of the law enforcement elders. So, how far can the girl go?"
How far is it, I don’t dare to accept your business, do you understand me now?”
Zi Xin's pupils shrank sharply, her face turned red, her whole body was shaking uncontrollably, and her fists were clenched so hard that they crackled.
She never expected that the hypocrite would lie to her and not tell her anything, but he would complain first and ruin her reputation everywhere!
