Chapter 431 (1/2)
The pale middle-aged man suddenly frowned and looked at Chu Yunsheng more carefully one more time. It seemed like he realized why Chu Yunsheng needed those supplies, but he was smart, he didn’t say it. Instead, he asked another question.
“No problem, brother. But, to be honest with you, we don’t have many supplies as well. Not to mention that we have to fight those foreigners in the east of the river… So I’d like to know how many sets of armors and swords you are willing to offer?”
Of course, saying that they were lacking in the material supplies was just an excuse to drive up the price. Especially when he saw what the sword could do, he immediately decided that he wanted to get as many pieces of equipment out of this man as possible.
“How many sh.e.l.ls do you have?” Chu Yunsheng didn’t answer him immediately. He asked another question instead.
The pale middle-aged man thought for a second and said. ” a little over three hundred.”
“Five sets and five swords. Now, take me to the place where you store the sh.e.l.ls, I’ll give you the armors and swords in three days. At that time, I’ll also need to see the rest of the supplies.” Chu Yunsheng said straightforwardly.
With his ability right now, one set of the tier-one armor wouldn’t waste much insect’s sh.e.l.ls
Although three hundred sh.e.l.ls were actually more than he had expected, he didn’t want to take too much advantage of those people. The price he gave out was after careful consideration, and it was a fair price.
The pale middle-aged man was thrilled hearing what he said. But he still didn’t reveal much emotion on his face. “But…” just when he tried to negotiate more, he was suddenly interrupted.
“Enough! I believe this young brother. Mei, take this brother to our storage facility and tell the people there that I said it. Also, remind them to give this brother all the sh.e.l.ls we have. Do not try to hide any!” The tall man next to the pale middle-aged man suddenly said sternly.
Although the pale middle-aged frowned his brows since he was interrupted, he didn’t challenge the other man’s decision. He simply gave the good-looking man a nod, signaling him to just follow the order.
“Brother, normally, since you have helped us, we shouldn’t treat you like this. I, Feng Yuting is also not an ungrateful person. We should have sent you some supplies as a gift. However, we still have many people to look after, so we have to be shameless to ask five sets of armors and swords from you.” the tall man said apologetically.
The man was very sincere, what he said was also very reasonable. Plus, Chu Yunsheng still couldn’t get rid of his soft-hearted nature, so he didn’t keep it in his mind.
He just simply nodded his head and then followed the good-looking man and headed towards their shortage facility.
Just when they left the skysc.r.a.per, a man hurriedly rushed into the building and said. “Brothers, something terrible just happened. It is the east side of the river. The entire Tachibana clan was exterminated just over one night! Not a single person lived!”
“WHAT!!!”
“Is this news reliable!?”
Two leaders immediately asked at the same time.
“Yes! I saw it with my own eyes. All of them were beheaded. Not a single person lived! The entire eastern region of the river is in chaos at the moment. Some j.a.panese want to surrender, some want to take revenge… I mean the Akizuki clan’s amba.s.sador is already on the way here!”
“What revenge? who did it?” the pale middle-aged man immediately asked the most important question.
“It… it is said…..”
“Why are you stuttering! Tell me now!” The middle-aged man shouted impatiently. He felt something, and it made him very anxious.
“They all said that it was that person who did it. Someone saw him entering the Tachibana clan’s territory, then… everyone was killed… more than three hundreds of people, they all died on the snowy ground without their heads. Apart from that person, who else can do it in this place?”
