Demon King: Hero, don't run away!-Chapter 1252: Contacting the Merchant Guild
Capítulo 1252: Chapter 1252: Contacting the Merchant Guild
At a branch of the Giant Umbrella Chamber of Commerce, a modestly dressed, slightly outstanding young girl was taking inventory of a batch of goods with an old man with white hair.
This batch of goods came from the distant Sethis Kingdom. To ensure they arrived here as quickly as possible, the Giant Umbrella Chamber did not hesitate to use high-level magicians and high-level flying demon beasts.
The person needing this batch of goods had a very special identity.
In the upper echelons of the Tren Republic, he had become the subject of much fascination, with praise and doubt surrounding him continuously.
The consensus was that he possessed extraordinary power.
Without him, the events triggered by the Curse Sect would have taken a much worse turn.
Facing demons head-on, he was not someone to be trifled with. It was best not to make any enemies with him, especially since he had an even more important task at hand.
It was such a person that the Giant Umbrella Chamber was willing to serve.
Even excluding his heroic deeds, the Giant Umbrella Chamber would still provide services to him.
Without him, the entire Giant Umbrella Chamber would not exist.
Carlo Joy had always wanted to repay this debt of gratitude, and this rare opportunity was not something he would miss.
“The material wear and tear during transportation are more than expected, but fortunately, all quality standards have been met.
Next, it’s just about delivering these things to his hands.
Hard to believe that the young man who was slightly stronger than his peers back then now stands at a height I cannot reach.
Indeed, I did not misjudge him.”
Beside him, Carlo Joy’s granddaughter, Mengte Joy, also remarked, “They appear to be ordinary people, entirely devoid of any strong presence, not aggressive at all, quite amiable.
If all adventurers were like him, our business with adventurers would be much easier.
Unfortunately, great fame occasionally brings trouble.
Grandpa, some have found out he placed an order with us, hoping to establish a connection with him through us. What do you think we should do?”
“Since the tally is complete, while reporting our completed work to him, we should also reveal this fact. Let’s hear his opinion.” Carlo Joy said.
“I understand, Grandpa. It’s just that we’re still unclear where they are. I’ve tried having our liaison officer contact Yang Yu and his company, but it seems that our liaison officer’s magic power cannot reach their crystal ball. We can only wait for them to take the initiative to contact us…” Mengte Joy said helplessly.
Magic communication also has its shortcomings.
The range within which people can be contacted depends entirely on the magic power and proficiency of the communicator.
If there were something that required no magic, allowed you to talk freely regardless of distance, and could be used by ordinary people, it would certainly sell well in this world.
Unexpectedly, to Mengte Joy, not long after speaking, she suddenly received contact from Yang Yu.
Yang Yu’s face appeared on the liaison officer’s crystal ball, and he smiled and greeted Carlo Joy:
“Long time no see, President Carlo, I wonder if you still remember me?”
“Of course, I remember. Long time no see, Lord Yang Yu.” Carlo Joy replied kindly, “The items you requested are basically ready on our end and are prepared to be shipped to Lianyun Port.”
“Your speed truly astonishes me. However, I’ve encountered a different situation on my side.
In short, I need a large number of barrels for wine storage.
I don’t need the wine, just the barrels.
I hope you can gather the barrels I need as quickly as possible, and then transport them to us with the fastest speed.
I’ll fill these barrels with the secret weapon I’ve prepared, which you’ll transport to the port for loading onto the ship.
I wonder if your chamber can manage that?”
Faced with Yang Yu’s sudden request, Carlo Joy did not feel any difficulty but instead gave Yang Yu a highly reliable response:
“How many barrels do you need? I’ll find a way.”
Yang Yu chuckled, provided a rough number, and also informed Carlo Joy of the destination to head to.
Carlo Joy nodded, assured to complete the task, and Yang Yu hung up the contact with confidence.
Meanwhile, in Lianyun Port, a middle-aged man sat upright in a room. Although he had originally intended to embark at that time, hearing some things from the people of Corpse Collection Coffin altered his intentions slightly.
He was unsure of how long it would take for the people he awaited to arrive there.
But to find his two daughters, following them might be the most efficient way.
Simultaneously, a petite young girl was drifting alone in the turbulent sea, with the pouring rain pattering on her body. Yet, her face showed no change because of the storm, and her eyes stayed fixed on the open ocean, pursuing her one and only goal.
Even though she knew that everything she did might be futile and might not save her sister, she still hoped to make one more effort.
This was something she decided upon, and no matter if someone laughed at her for being naive and foolish, she would not change her mind.
If, in the end, redemption is indeed impossible, she must gather all her courage to bring everything to a conclusion, to put a period to it all.
Over the years, due to the Silver Orchid Commerce’s withdrawal from the Tren Republic Market and Carlo Joy ramping up, the Giant Umbrella Chamber saw significant expansion.
The barrels requested by Yang Yu were fully collected by the Giant Umbrella Chamber in just one night.
Early the next morning, Commerce Association President Carlo Joy set sail in secret with his granddaughter Mengte Joy, transporting the items Yang Yu needed to the designated destination.
Carlo Joy never thought their caravan would end up in such a remote countryside, crossing a plain filled with ordinary slimes and following a stream to stand before a massive magic array.
There, stood a giant wolf, a fish-dragon clan youth, and a boy in a yellow raincoat.
The fish-dragon clan youth greeted Carlo Joy and explained the situation to him.
The location harboring the secret weapon was not accessible to just anyone; they would use the teleportation magic array there to transport the barrels one by one. Yang Yu and his group would fill the barrels with the secret weapon and then transport the barrels back.
Afterward, they could head to Lianyun Port together to load all these items onto the ship.
Carlo Joy was not overly curious, merely smiling as he asked:
“I’ve not met with Lord Yang Yu in such a long time; I came here hoping to see him. He should appear here eventually, correct?”
Lang Yi nodded to Carlo Joy, “After all, he also needs to check whether the quality of the medication you brought is up to standard.”
