Chapter 26 The Big Market
Perhaps it was to make money with peace, or perhaps because he knew that this was of no use, Yulashire did not continue to ask questions, but instead decided on the auction with Lu En.
"Then we won't talk about this. I can waive the commission for the auction and keep your identity confidential, but I hope you can participate in the auction with us. I promise that I can pay you 5% of the auction transaction price as advertising fee. At the same time, we will bear the tax. How about it?" Yulashire said frankly this time, without any detours.
Lu En nodded: "This will make many people target me. Commissions alone cannot make me take such a big risk. I only have one requirement. I don't need advertising fees and you don't need to bear taxes. Help me find a piece of land outside Larant. The open land is fine, and the area is at least three miles."
"...The land of three miles apart, to be honest, the value of these dragon blood auctions alone is not enough. We will provide you with about 1,200 gold coins, 1,200 gold coins are not enough for such a piece of land. This is Larant, even in the suburbs, the land is very expensive." Yulashire began to bargain.
"I can make up for the shortcomings, mainly to use your social relations. It is not an easy thing for a stranger to buy a piece of land. I want you to help." Lu En said righteously.
After hearing these words, Yulashire sighed, she almost understood.
"What do you want to do in the land? Build a manor?" she asked tentatively.
"I have my own plan, and it is harmless to you. I just want to... build a workshop." Lu En spread his hands.
"Workshop? It seems very interesting, but it has nothing to do with me, just like you said..." Yulaheil changed the subject and was about to continue talking-
At this moment, Lu En suddenly interrupted her.
Lu En stood up and held the other party's hand.
"Just you said just now, we are friends, aren't we? This is the first step in our friendship, and the Hall of Glow." Lu En said with a smile.
"That's right...my friend, then my conditions were cancelled before, and you took out 20% of the auction income, and I will arrange a piece of land for you, which will be a symbol of our friendship." Yulashir's expression suddenly changed, and he also smiled and looked very cute.
When the two sides agreed, everything seemed to be underestimated, and it could even be said that some jokes were completely ****.
Lu En packed up his things and left. The specific matters were not discussed now, and he had to wait for the other party to make arrangements.
Yulashir bid farewell to Lu En, and at the same time directed others to start making arrangements. How to promote and operate it all takes time.
After the two said goodbye like real friends, Lu En temporarily left the Hall of Glow.
Looking at Lu En's gradually disappearing back, Yulashir suddenly became cold.
"Let those bugs prepare and investigate this person. Also, you go and start the land. It is very suitable to be in the wasteland by the Blue River. Go and negotiate with the military to see if you can get the information about the black dragon Kara. Also, prepare a magic crystal for me, which will be for tonight." She was instructed to the people who served around her. When she spoke, she did not look at the reactions of the others, but walked quickly to the center of the Glow Hall.
She murmured as she walked.
"This man named Lucien came from the beginning with the idea of land. Whatever selling dragon blood is just a guise. He used this as a bargaining chip to negotiate with me about land..."
"Who is he? What's behind it?"
As the apostle of the heavens walked, he turned into pure light and flowed into the cracks of the ground. After that, the entire Glow Hall seemed to have a shimmer, but it was not conspicuous under the light and was almost invisible.
The people around them were unaware of all this, and seemed to have not seen a living person disappearing in front of them.

"Oh..." Lu En sighed, he didn't expect that he would meet such a person.
He was sure that the other party must have started to prepare, because part of his background was seen, at least, the other party could see the origin of the dragon blood.
Moreover, my actions must have been seen through and I thought I could be fooled directly, but I met a spirited apostle in the heaven.
Yes, from the beginning, Lu En went with the idea of land. He needed a piece of land, so he pretended to be just here to sell things. He knew that the Hall of Glow would never collect dragon blood, but they would definitely propose other ways to trade, which gave him space to put forward conditions. With the space to negotiate, he could negotiate matters about land.
According to the information I saw in the newspaper yesterday, the Glow Hall is now planning to develop a forest. Although the land is expensive, it is not something that the Glow Hall urgently needs. Lu En feels that he has a high probability of getting the development rights of this land.
As for the reason he proposed to want land, he wanted to build a factory here.
A factory with modern processes is different from the private workshops where humans were extremely inefficient in the medieval era, but a factory workshop that completely subverts the current production mode!
Thinking of this, walking on the street, Bai suddenly spoke to Lu En: "Then, sir, where else do you want to go? It's still early today, but it's still morning!"
Lu En woke up from his meditation, "Well, I want to go to the distribution center of the United Chamber of Commerce. You know, the big market, let me talk about the rules of the big market on the road."
"Well, I'll take you there now, please come with me!" Bai replied immediately.
So the three set out for the "big market".
According to Bai, the big market was the original commercial distribution center of Larant, but now that this location was occupied by the Hall of Glow, the big market has become a different look.
This is half of the headquarters of the United Chamber of Commerce. The reason why it is half is that the loose United Chamber of Commerce has no headquarters that can be defined. Only the big market can allow them to gather here. There are various workshops, warehouses, stacking yards and furnaces distributed here in a mess. The streets and alleys are like a chaotic spider web, broken, scattered, and chaos filled here.
This is not good, far less neat and easy to understand, standardized and easy to use, and is completely different from the efficient and concise service efficiency of the Glow Hall, but there are also benefits that the Glow Hall does not have.
The Hall of Glow has an official color in a sense, so they follow the rules and will not trample on the law too much, but the United Chamber of Commerce... or the big market is completely different. Perhaps some illegal items are rare outside, but as long as you can afford the fee, there are always people who are willing to bring them into the big market for you. Most of the goods produced here are average, but they can still be used. The service attitude of each store is quite rough, but there are all kinds of services, as long as you are rich and have rich imagination, and don't mind using some illegal means.
Lu En understood this statement, but when he really stood outside the big market, he felt that he was not mentally prepared.
