Chapter 1591
After this, the merchant ship did not encounter any accidents.
As it slowly approached the entrance of the wormhole, David and the others also began to encounter other merchant ships, as well as the patrol team sent by the Central Sacred Continent.
As they got closer, they saw more and more merchant ships gathered in various places around Star Kingdom.
There were even some giant merchant ships that were dozens or even hundreds of times larger than the merchant ship that David and the others were in.
One could only imagine how many goods they transported at one time.
This kind of giant merchant ship would bear the logo of the forces behind it.
Some were big families, and some were large sects.
However, the majority of them were trading houses
They were the main trade force of the Central Sacred Continent.
The small galaxy where Marlee was located would basically sell goods to this kind of merchant ship.
After they bought the goods at a low price, they would ship them to the Central Sacred Continent and sell them at a high price to pocket the difference.
One should not underestimate the price difference.
It would be several times or even dozens of times the cost of goods.
After all, no one would be willing to risk their lives to transport goods for such a long distance if the profit was not high.
If the two groups of space pirates that Marlee and the other encountered ran into merchant ships of this level, they would not even dare to touch them. Ultimately, they could only stay away obediently.
If ordinary space pirates wanted to take down these giant merchant ships, they would only end badly.
Soon, the merchant ship arrived at a bustling area. Many merchant ships and battleships were parked here in an orderly manner.
As soon as the merchant ship arrived, a small ship with the word ‘Central approached them immediately.
Marlee ordered the merchant ship’s defenses to be disarmed, and then took Fraser and several Infinity Rankers to meet them on the roof of the merchant ship.
The small ship parked directly on the roof of the merchant ship.
Two men and one woman came down from above.
The one in lead was a middle-aged man.
Behind him were a young man and a young woman, both of whom had outstanding looks.
One could tell they were exceptional from just a glance.
All three of them were wearing white trench coats, with the word ‘Central’ printed on the chest and back area.
They were the staff of the Central Sacred Continent.
“Where are you from?” The middle-aged man asked as soon as he got off the ship.
“Sir, we are from Green Apollo,” Marlee replied respectfully.
“Green Apollo?”
The middle-aged man looked at Marlee suspiciously.
Apparently, he had not heard of this place.
“Find out where Green Apollo is,” the middle-aged man said to the two people behind him.
“Yes, Captain!
The two young people immediately opened a three-dimensional image and quickly searched it.
After a while, the young woman was the first to say, “Sir, I found it. Green Apollo is a small galaxy 180000 cosmic kilometers away from here”
*180000 cosmic kilometers?”
The middle-aged man was taken aback
“They’re from so far away?”
He looked at Marlee
---------Ads----------
---------------------------------------
“How would a peak Infinity Ranker dare to travel 180000 cosmic kilometers with a cargo of goods?
“Is she not afraid of meeting star pirates?
The main point is that they even arrived safely.
“How unbelievable.
They have such good luck.
“What a bunch of lunatics who value money but not their lives.”
David was still in the room at this time and did not follow Marlee. This was why the middle-aged man was so surprised.
If David was here, he would be the Eternal escort, and traveling 180000 cosmic kilometers would be nothing
“You must have suffered a lot after coming from such a far away place,” the middle-aged man shook his head and sighed
He understood the people from these small places very well.
They would not earn much selling to large trading companies that came to buy from them.
If others shipped the goods to the Central Sacred Continent and sold them, their profit would be dozens of times more
Chapter 1592
If they were to transport the goods themselves, they might encounter accidents at any time. In doing so, they would lose not only the goods but also their life.
It was a typical example of losing both one’s wealth and life.
Therefore, most of them were still willing to sell to large trading companies.
It would be cheaper, but more importantly, there would be no risks!
However, there were still very few people who would personally deliver goods to the Central Sacred Continent to sell
Ignoring the failure where they would lose their lives and money and get nothing in return, in the event of success, the benefits they obtained would be enough to make up for the hardships and dangers faced along the way
“Sir, the journey is not important, what matters is the result and the fact that we succeeded,” Marlee said with a smile
The middle-aged man was also infected when he saw the smile on Marlee’s face. novelbin
This woman was pretty nice!
She was just his cup of tea.
Needless to say, she was more stunning than most women and she belonged to the small percentage that sat on the top of the pyramid.
Moreover, she was also quite bold.
She was just a peak Infinity Ranker, but she traveled 180000 cosmic kilometers with a ship full of cargo.
The only downside was that her strength was too low.
She was only a peak Infinity Ranker and not even an Eternal. Her life would be too short.
Moreover, there was a big chance that she was already married and had children at this age.
However, this did not affect the middle-aged man’s appreciation of Marlee
“Indeed, the journey is not important, what matters is the result. Yes, you have succeeded. Now that you’re here, no one will dare to make things difficult for you,” the middle-aged man also laughed and said.
“Thank you, Sir!”
“You’re welcome! It stands to reason that you need to pay a certain fee to use the wormhole here, but since you have traveled 180000 cosmic kilometers and it’s such a tedious journey, I will waive the fee for you. This is your number. When it’s your turn, you can use the wormhole to go directly to the Central Sacred Continent.”
After he finished speaking, the middle-aged man took out a token from his pocket and handed it to Marlee.
Marlee quickly took the token with both hands and looked at it. The number 782 was written on it.
In other words, her merchant ship was the 782nd ship in line.
She had to wait for the 781 ships in front of her before it was her merchant ship’s turn.
“Thank you, Sir” Marlee bowed and thanked the middle-aged man.
I said you don’t have to be so polite. What’s your name?” The middle-aged man asked.
“Sir, my name is Marlee Jung.”
“I see, Miss Jung. I still need to take care of some business so I’ll be leaving first. If you need anything. you can come to me. My name is Remy Banks.”
Remy turned and left.
The two young people quickly followed behind him.
“Farewell, Master Remy!” Marlee said with a bow.
“Farewell, Master Remy! The others followed suit.
The three left in a small ship. They still needed to go to the next merchant ship to collect fees and issue numbers.
Marlee and others also returned to the control room
The merchant ship continued to move forward. After it docked beside other merchant ships, they left their defense on to prevent anyone from entering
They were waiting to enter the wormhole to go to the Central Sacred Continent.
In reality, a wormhole was a channel created by using the characteristics of space dimensions.
The higher the spatial dimension, the closer the distance between two points.
David could travel in four-dimensional space, which was naturally much faster than in three- dimensional space
However, the wormhole was a stable way of traveling through high-dimensional space for various vehicles.
The difference between the wormhole and the way David and the other Eternals traveled was that it was fixed
It was a straight passage between two points and there would be no accidents or deviations while in it. One could only enter at a certain point and exit at a certain point, and one could not get off halfway
On the other hand, Eternals and above could change their routes at will after they tore apart space to travel inside
That was the difference between the two
Many wormholes were not in four-dimensional space
For example, the wormhole that David and the others entered now was built directly in the six- dimensional space.
It must be much faster than David traveling in four-dimensional space.
However, it would take a lot of time and effort to create wormholes.
Except for large forces, no ordinary force could build them. Therefore, it was reasonable for them to charge some fees.
Chapter 1593
After Marlee directed the merchant ship to dock, she began to wait quietly
The number she received was 782.
She could only wait for the 781 ships in front to enter the wormhole before it was her turn.
It would be completely safe here as no one would dare to cause trouble here.
The people stationed here by the Central Sacred Continent were not weak.
Of the two men and one woman who just issued the queue number, the middle-aged man, Remy, was an
Eternal Realm Ruler Ranker, and the other two young people were partial Eternals.
Even those giant merchant ships had to wait in line for their turn when they arrived.
Everyone on the boat relaxed and finally had a good rest.
It had been nearly two years since they left Green Apollo, and they had not had a good rest.
They had spent almost every day in fear.
Now that they were here, the trip was considered a success.
When they arrived at the Central Sacred Continent, they could also get rich rewards once they sold the goods on the ship.
David stayed in the room the whole time.
As time went by, he gradually calmed down and was no longer as anxious as he was at the beginning.
This was because being anxious would not help anything and it would affect his judgment and lead to him making wrong decisions.
He did not want to die before he could rescue Celeste.
It would be easy to spend money in places like the Central Sacred Continent as long as one could find the way
He was now very interested in the large auction that Marlee mentioned.
He hoped that when he arrived at the Central Sacred Continent, he could run into a firm holding such an auction.
David was thinking that he should raise his strength to peak Sovereign Rank first, and then make further plans.
Ruler Rank was too weak.
The others would completely look down on him.
Just like those auctions held by trading companies. If one did not have strength or background, they would not even send them an invitation.
Only once he got to peak Sovereign Rank would he have the power to protect himself and have the right to speak
As for getting to Saint Realm, it would require too many lavish points.
Therefore, he decided to first reach peak Sovereign Rank, and then slowly find a solution to continue improving
David glanced at his system panel novelbin
[Host David Lidell
(Balance: 10000000000000000 (Star Dollars)
Body: Ruler level 1 (You may upgrade one level using 10 lavish points)
(Mind Infinity level 10 (You may upgrade using 100 lavish points)
Combat: Eternal Realm Beginner Ruler Rank
[Combat Skills: Void Punch (Perfection), Air Crushing Slap (Perfection), Evil-Splitting Sword Technique ( Perfection)
Skills Ancient Traditional Medicine (Perfection)
[Lavish Points: 0]
This data remained unchanged for a long time ever since he broke through to Eternal Realm Ruler Rank in the Milky Way
The Central Sacred Continent was where David would show his capabilities next. Eighty percent of the trading volume of the entire Star Kingdom took place there.
Even if David spent tens of billions of Star Dollars, it would not cause any waves. However, he still needed to be careful.
The Central Sacred Continent was the Saints Association’s territory after all.
It was estimated that there would be a lot of Saints over there.
If he was too flashy, he would definitely lure them out, which would be troublesome.
He still did not have the strength to speak in front of the Saints, but he also believed that before long. Saints would be nothing to him.
Chapter 1594
Nek and the reputable elders of the Iridescent Sect, just you wait!
I will settle accounts with you one by one.”
David thought silently in his heart.
The merchant ship waited here for a whole day.
The little girl Peggy had already woken up.
As soon as she woke up, the little girl asked David to tell her a story.
She did not know that she had gotten through a life-and-death experience while in her sleep.
When Marlee and the others were about to enter the wormhole, the merchant ship welcomed a quest
It was Remy, the Eternal who gave them the number yesterday.
Marlee was also puzzled about the purpose of his visit novelbin
She was sure that she had never had any interaction with this man before.
However, the other party not only waived her fee for using the wormhole but now also came to her.
Even though she was doubtful, Marlee still received the other party respectfully.
Remy was not only an Eternal, but he was also a staff member sent here by the Central Sacred Continent.
In Marlee’s opinion, he was a big shot.
If she offended him, she would not be able to do anything if he said there was a problem with the merchant ship and forbade them from entering the wormhole.
Such was Remy’s authority.
I wonder why you’re here, Master Remy. I didn’t make any preparations. Please forgive me, Master Remy, Marlee said respectfully to Remy who was sitting opposite her
“Miss Jung, you’re too kind. I was just strolling around and saw your merchant ship. I came up on a whim. I hope I didn’t disturb you,” Remy also said politely.
Remy had taken a fancy to Marlee when he saw her yesterday.
Except for being weak, all of her other aspects were excellent.
It was rare for Remy to find a woman he fancied.
Thus, today he came here to look into Marlee’s background.
Remy was ready to pursue Marlee if she was not married or had kids.
With his identity and Eternal’s strength, wouldn’t it be easy for him to win over a woman from a small place?
“Master Remy, what are you talking about? it’s an honor for you to come visit my place. I am beyond thrilled, so how could you be a bother?” Marlee said hastily.
Although she did not know why Remy came here, she knew she could not neglect him.
“Miss Jung, I really admire you. It’s 180000 cosmic kilometers to travel from Green Apollo to here. Even partial Eternals wouldn’t dare to make this journey,” Remy praised.
“Master Remy, you speak too highly of me. I had no choice. If there was a choice, who would be willing to risk their lives to make such a journey? It’s just that my family has been suppressed by the surrounding forces and has been unable to make ends meet for a long time. If I didn’t make this gamble, we’d be doomed,” Marlee said with a bitter smile.
I see! That’s right! If you don’t have a choice, who would be willing to gamble with their life? But I admire you for getting here safely as a woman,” Remy agreed.
“I was just lucky.”
Marlee thought, if I hadn’t met David halfway and kept him around, I would have been caught by the space pirates and living a life worse than death.
‘David is Peggy’s and my savior.”
“Luck is also a manifestation of strength
The two happily chatted about various topics.
Remy wanted to know if Marlee was married, but it was hard to ask directly, so he could only make indirect remarks.
He started with her family situation.
Marlee also had a purpose to this conversation. She wanted to know more about the Central Sacred Continent
After all, this was her first time here.
Remy was sent here by the Central Sacred Continent, so he must know it well.
After the two chatted for a while with their own goals in mind, Remy vaguely learned about some of the members of Marlee’s family, but he did not hear that she had a husband, making him a little happy.
Marlee also got a lot of basic information about the Central Sacred Continent from Remy
It could be said that both parties got what they wanted.
Chapter 1595
Just as Remy was about to further express his thoughts.
Creak!
The door was pushed open and a small figure waddled in
“Mom, you’re here! Who is this guy?” The little girl looked at Remy and asked suspiciously.
Of course, the person who came in was Marlee’s daughter, Peggy
She came out of David’s room. When she went back to her room and did not find Marlee, she came here.
“Peggy! How could you be so rude? Greet Master Remy now,” Marlee scolded. novelbin
“Oh! Hello, Master Remy!” Peggy greeted with a bow.
Even though she was young, Peggy had lived in this kind of environment since she was a child, so she knew how to read the room.
Since her mother was so nervous, she had to be afraid of offending this man.
Hence, Peggy had to change her attitude as well.
Peggy called Marlee Mom as soon as she entered the door, and it stunned Remy for a while.
He had been asking indirectly about Marlee’s family situation.
“She didn’t say anything about a husband, so why does she have a daughter?
“Is she just a goddaughter?
“Probably!”
“It’s okay, little girl. You can just call me by my name,” Remy suppressed the doubt in his heart and said.
“No! Mom said I have to call you Master Remy, so I can only call you Master Remy, otherwise, she will be angry,” the little girl pouted.
Remy was about to speak when Marlee said before him, “Okay, Peggy, you should go out first! Master Remy and I have something to talk about, so don’t come in again.”
“Okay! Mom, you can continue to chat with Master Remy, I’ll leave first.”
After the little girl finished speaking, she turned and left the room.
Creak!
She closed the door again.
The room fell into silence.
Remy was about to say something, but he swallowed his words.
“Now, first of all, I need to figure out who that little girl who just came in was.
“Is she Marlee’s biological daughter?
“It’s fine if she adopted the little girl.
If she’s her biological daughter, then I must change my purpose of coming here.”
Remy was an Eternal and he held an important position as well.
Therefore, he could not take a woman with a child. Even making her a concubine was a no-no.
He would be laughed at by outsiders.
Prestige was very important for someone like him.
“Miss Jung, who is that little girl? She’s so cute,” Remy asked calmly.
“That’s my daughter,” Marlee replied without thinking.
At the same time, she was a little puzzled.
Peggy called me Mom and he’s still asking who she is.
‘Is he dumb?
Of course, she dared not say it.
“Is she your biological daughter?
“Certainly!”
“What about your husband? Did he not come along?”
“He died before Peggy was born, so I’ve been raising Peggy this entire time.”
---------Ads----------
---------------------------------------
---------Ads----------
---------------------------------------
I see! Miss Jung, you really are a hero among women. I really admire you for doing such a dangerous job while raising your daughter alone,” Remy praised.
However, Remy felt dissatisfied inside.
“What a pity!
‘It’s not easy for me to meet a woman I admire so much, and she’s also from a small place.
‘As long as I say the word, the other party would definitely follow me without hesitation.
‘Unexpectedly, her husband died and she has a child.”
Remy would not want such a woman.
If he took her, she would only bring countless negative effects to him.
“I’m not a hero. I was just forced to do this. I hope you won’t make fun of me, Master Remy,” Marlee sighed.
“Why would I? It’s late now and I still have work to do when I go back, so I won’t bother you anymore, Miss Jung I wish you a smooth journey in the future. This shipment can be sold at a good price and will solve your family’s problems. Hence, you don’t have to risk your life making more trips like this in the future.”
“Thank you, Master Remy. I hope your kind words will come true”
Chapter 1596
“Miss Jung, farewell!”
“Master Remy, please be careful on your way out.”
After she sent Remy off, Marlee was still a little confused.
As she stood on the roof of the merchant ship, she thought carefully about what Remy did and said after entering the door
She seemed to gradually realize the context.
“Had Remy taken a fancy to me?
Marlee thought, her eyes widening.
“It’s very possible!
‘Otherwise, what was he doing here?
“He kept asking about my family situation just to find out if I have a husband
‘Plus, he held nothing back when answering my questions about the Central Sacred Continent
“However, his plant was disrupted when Peggy came in and called me Mom.
“No wonder Remy had been in such a low mood since Peggy left.
“After learning that Peggy is her daughter, he bade farewell and left.
“A big shot would be able to find any woman he wants, so he wouldn’t be interested in a woman who has given birth to a child.”
It occurred to Marlee suddenly.
“So Does David also
“Pah! What was I thinking?
“David is a direct descendant of a powerful force and he has become an Eternal at such a young age, so that means he is qualified to compete for the position of their heir
“His status is countless times higher than Remy’s and he lives in a different world than me.
“What’s more, I have given birth.
“David’s marriage in the future will definitely be arranged by the forces behind him.
The one he marries will definitely be the chosen one from Star Kingdom.”
Marlee shook her head vigorously, dismissed the unrealistic thoughts in her mind, and turned to enter the merchant ship.
Next, the merchant ship began to move forward a little bit.
Remy never came to see Marlee again.
Soon, it was their turn.
After handing over the token engraved with 782 to another staff member, the merchant ship entered the wormhole.
The starry sky disappeared and their surroundings became pitch black.
At this time, the merchant ship had entered six-dimensional space.
The pressure here was far greater than the four-dimensional space that David once entered. novelbin
All means of transportation entering this space could only travel through certain pre-constructed passages.
Once they left the passage, they would instantly become powder.
Even people were no exception.
Only an Eternal like David might be able to resist it for a while.
However, he would only live slightly longer
Eternal could not tear apart the six-dimensional space, so it would just be a dead end for them.
Of course, it was impossible to get out of this channel.
The merchant ship where Marlee was located began to move forward uncontrollably
The edge of the Central Sacred Continent was on the other end of the wormhole.
David walked to the roof of the merchant ship at this time.
As he looked at the pitch-black surroundings, he released his mind power and started exploring around
It did not take long for David to discover that there were very solid objects blocking him in every direction. This was a long passage, and they could only go forward or backward.
Going up, down, left, and right was forbidden.
David also tried it with his mind power
However, it did not work.
He felt that even if he used all his strength to attack, it would be impossible to break through in even the slightest.
“Is this a wormhole?
“Sure enough, it is very strong.
“It should be built by Saints.
It is impossible for others to have the strength to build such a solid passage in a high-dimensional space!”
Chapter 1597
On a pier on the edge of the Central Sacred Continent, countless ships, large and small, crowded around densely.
There was no end in sight.
According to visual estimates, there were at least hundreds of thousands of ships.
Although there were many ships, it did not appear chaotic.
They were all in line and arranged in a very orderly manner.
Many staff members were also directing the ships.
More than 90% of these ships were merchant ships that transported goods. novelbin
Some just got here and they were ready to sell their cargo on the Central Sacred Continent.
On the other hand, some were preparing to set off from here to other places in Star Kingdom.
The Central Sacred Continent had many piers like this.
This was just one of them.
The entire Central Sacred Continent accounted for 80% of Star Kingdom’s trading volume, so it was no joke.
The volume of ships coming and going every day was scary.
It could be said that there was no place in Star Kingdom more prosperous than the Central Sacred Continent.
This was the place where every inch of land was like gold, making it the Star Kingdom’s famous money- squandering paradise.
Almost all the forces that held even the slightest prestige would establish their industries on the Central
Sacred Continent.
David had undoubtedly made the optimum decision to spend his money here.
If he spent tens of billions of Star Dollars in other places, he would certainly attract attention, but not here.
The only thing he needed to pay attention to was that he could not spend too much at once when he did not have enough strength. Instead, he needed to accumulate his strength slowly.
David started from the bottom while he was on Earth and got here step by step.
Hence, he knew to make money without making any noise.
Everything should be low-key, and it would be best if he could spend a lot of money and get a lot of lavish points without attracting others’ attention.
Even if he could not, he had to first ensure that he could improve his strength as much as possible to deal with some emergencies.
At this time, the merchant ship where Marlee was located had just exited the wormhole and was queuing up to enter the Central Sacred Continent.
Their merchant ship looked petite and inconspicuous here.
Any merchant ship around thern was ten times or even dozens of times bigger than them.
However, they were lucky not to be discriminated against along the way.
There was no communication between the merchant ships at all.
Everyone had a job to do, and their defense was constantly activated.
No one would be allowed inside the cabin except for the staff of the Central Sacred Continent to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Soon, Marlee’s merchant ship got into the Central Sacred Continent.
As soon as they entered the continent, the ships scattered and headed for their own destinations.
After checking the map, Marlee directed the merchant ship to move in one direction.
Originally, it was also her first time in the Central Sacred Continent so she should not be so familiar.
However, Marlee learned the names and headquarters locations of some of the largest trading companies in the Central Sacred Continent from Remy before entering the wormhole.
These large trading companies were relatively fair and just.
They would not cheat Marlee and others just because they were from a small place.
On the contrary, it would not be the same when it came to small trading companies. Some of them intentionally tried to scam merchants visiting from small places for the first time.
Chapter 1598
Marlee felt that Remy would not lie to her, nor was there any need for him to lie to her.
Therefore, she chose a large trading company named Treasure Trove.
There was no particular reason for choosing it. Marlee chose it as its name sounded pleasant to the ears.
The result would be the same anyway.
After determining the direction, Marlee made the merchant ship head towards the headquarters of Treasure Trove.
However, before they could go far, a small spaceship blocked their way.
Marlee looked at the small spaceship ahead with a puzzled expression.
‘We’re already in the Central Sacred Continent and they still dare to hijack our ship?
‘I didn’t think they would be so bold!
‘There are still many merchant ships passing by, so why did they block us?”
The other merchant ships that passed by were ignoring this as well.
Since it was none of their business, they would not stick their noses into this.
However, no matter what, Marlee refused to believe that there were people on the Central Sacred Continent who dared to rob them so blatantly.
If so, who would dare to trade on the Central Sacred Continent in the future?
Wouldn’t this be destroying their own brand?
Marlee was just about to ask the other party’s purpose when she heard a voice from the small spaceship.
“I wonder if this is your first time coming to the Central Sacred Continent? I am a know-it-all in this area. I have lived here since I was a child, and I know this place better than anyone else. If you need anything, you can ask me. I will recommend the most suitable company for you no matter if you want to sell or buy. If you want to sell, I will definitely give you the highest price, and if you want to buy, I will guarantee that you won’t spend any extra money. However, I will need some tips for my hard work.”
It sounded like a young man.
He was speaking very humbly, so Marlee and the others breathed a sigh of relief.
‘He’s just here to solicit. I thought he was trying to rob us!”
Although everyone figured the probability of this was basically zero, it was still the first time they came to the Central Sacred Continent, so their understanding of this place was quite limited.
“Sorry! It’s not the first time we’ve come to the Central Sacred Continent, so we don’t need your help. Thank you for your kindness!” Marlee said politely.
They were newcomers and the other party was local.
Therefore, Marlee did not dare to offend him in the slightest.
“Ma’am, don’t lie to me. I, Willie Hardigan, have been here for so many years. I haven’t learned anything apart from how to read people. When you just entered the Central Sacred Continent, you paused for a moment, so you must be looking at the map, right? If it’s not your first time, I’m sure you’ll
be going straight to your destination, so why bother looking at the map, am I right?” The young man’s voice came from the spaceship again.
“Although this is our first time, we already have a goal, so we don’t need your guidance. You should go to other merchant ships to see if they have any needs. Thank you,” Marlee said again.
“Ma’am, the price of goods could change at any time. Sometimes, the same goods will have a huge difference in price just a day apart. What you know may not be first-hand information, but I have the latest information on this trade area. If you hire me, you will definitely not suffer any. losses
Marlee was annoyed at the other party’s pestering. novelbin
However, this was the first time she came to the Central Sacred Continent, so she did not want to offend the locals.
After all, these guys had lived here for so long and they would have many connections.
Marlee would not get any benefits if she offended them.
She decided to hire the young man if the asking price was not high.
The less trouble, the better.
She would just think of this as spending money to avoid disaster.
So, Marlee asked, “In that case, how much is your fee, Mr. Hardigan?”
“Ma’am, you’re so wise! Soon you will know how cost-effective this decision is. I want to know whether you’re selling or buying,” Willie asked happily.
“We’re selling!”
“If you’re selling, my fee is very low. It is just one percent of the value of the goods you sell.”
Chapter 1599
“What?”
Upon hearing this, Marlee felt a surge of anger rushing straight to the top of her head.
The other party was demanding such an exorbitant price. He was asking for one percent of the value of all the goods on her ship.
One must know that this was the rare ore prepared by the Jung family with all their efforts.
This was already the Jung family’s last hope.
Even if Marlee sold these goods to big trading companies that would collect them from Green Apollo, they would be worth 200 to 300 million Star Dollars.
Now, they had risked their lives to transport the goods to the Central Sacred Continent.
Although they had no idea what the price was here, it would be at least several times more.
Otherwise, why would those big trading companies go so far as to acquire the goods from Green Apollo?
It was these huge profit margins that made them willing to make the trip.
All the ores on board were worth at least one billion Star Dollars.
With just a few words, this guy wanted to get one percent, that was, more than ten million Star Dollars?
By the way, the goods might worth even be more than this figure.
How was it possible?
This was daylight robbery.
The Jung family hired more than a dozen Infinity Rankers to risk their lives to protect them all the way here, and they were only paid 8% of the total value.
The dozens of Infinity Rankers would only earn that amount after spending more than a year risking their lives.
If they got into an accident halfway through the journey, they would even lose their lives.
Hence, they would not let this punk take away one percent with just a few words.
Marlee was the decision maker sent by the Jung family this time.
Therefore, she certainly would not agree.
Suppressing the anger in her heart, Marlee said coldly, “Sorry! Mr. Hardigan, we can’t afford you, so you should find another merchant ship!”
“Ma’am, you have just agreed. Our employment relationship has been established, and you cannot go back on your word now,” Willie said with a grin.
“I just asked about your price. When did I agree? Now I think your price is too high and I don’t want to hire you,” Marlee snapped
“If you ask me the price, it means you agree to hire me. Don’t worry, Ma’am, I won’t take the benefits for nothing. I will definitely find you the highest price to sell your goods. You can tell me what you’re selling now so I can find the best place to sell it for you.”
“I never promised to hire you, and I won’t hire you. Please get out of the way. I can find another place to
sell them myself. I don’t need your guidance.”
“Ma’am, you’re violating our employment relationship. In the Central Sacred Continent, you have to pay. liquidated damages. I will leave if you pay me the liquidated damages.”
“Breach of our employment relationship? Do you have any evidence? Just because you said I hired you? You are so demanding. Is there any law in the Central Sacred Continent for this? You are insulting the Central Sacred Continent by doing this! I can sue you!” Marlee snapped.
She did not believe that the Central Sacred Continent, the most prosperous place in Star Kingdom, would let these guys do whatever they wanted.
This jerk must think she was a newcomer and so wanted to blackmail her with his status as a local.
If it was three to five million Star Dollars, Marlee would agree to hire him.
She would consider it as losing some money to avoid disaster.
However, asking for 1% of the profit immediately was daylight robbery as that was worth more than 10. million Star Dollars.
There was no way Marlee would agree to such an unreasonable request.
“Ma’am, are you sure you don’t want to hire me? This is the Central Sacred Continent, not your hometown. You have to think about it carefully. Make sure you won’t regret your decision,” Willie also said gloomily.
“I thought about the situation, and again, I never hired you and I never will.”
After Marlee finished speaking she did not give Willie another chance to speak.
She said directly to the person operating the merchant ship, “Go pass the guy in front of us and move on.”
“Yes, Miss!”
They were also fuming.
The other party directly asking for 1% of the total value was too much.
Everyone on board had experienced a life-and-death struggle.
Even after all that, they would not even get so much.
The merchant ship bypassed the small spaceship in front and continued to move toward Treasure Trove.
Chapter 1600
On the small spaceship, a young man with a somewhat fat face looked at the departing merchant ship with a gloomy face. He was furious on the inside, but he could not do anything.
They had to sign the employment relationship agreement for his rights to be protected.
Naturally, an employment relationship would not be established just because the other party asked about the price.
However, Willie did not expect this woman to dare to disrespect him as a local the first time she came to the Central Sacred Continent.
In the past, Willie took advantage of such people who were coming here for the first time from a small place. He knew they would have the mentality of not daring to make a huge fuss out of this.
Therefore, he had succeeded many times before.
Not only did he get huge rewards, but he also led them to sell the goods at low prices to some small trading companies to enjoy more rebates.
However, this time, he encountered a challenge.
Willie thought for a moment.
Originally, the other party agreed to hire him.
However, when they heard that he quoted a 1% reward, they immediately changed their mind.
Obviously, this 1% remuneration was considered very high by the other party, so they immediately refused without hesitation. Furthermore, there was no room for bargaining.
It could be inferred that the value of the goods on this merchant ship must be very high. This was most likely why the other party did not even leave room for negotiation.
Willie was dissastisfied after watching his profit slipping away from him.
However, he also had no reason to chase after them.
If the patrol saw him pestering the passing merchant ship, it would be troublesome.
He might even get arrested and put behind bars for a few days to experience inhuman torture.
Willie did not want to go through that.
‘What should I do?”
Willie thought about it.
Suddenly his eyes light up.
“Right, since I can’t continue pestering them, I can pass the news to the small trading companies that often cooperate with me.
‘I’ll ask them to send someone to buy the goods at a low price. novelbin
‘At that time, i can also get a rebate.
‘That will do!”
After making the decision, Willie contacted Lou Sirr, the boss of a small trading company with whom he often worked together.
This guy was also a savage.
He would go wherever his interest went.
Willie told Lou exactly what happened along with some of his predictions.
He felt that the value of the goods on this merchant ship was definitely not low.
It was the first time the other party came to the Central Sacred Continent, so there was a lot of room for manipulation.
When Lou heard this, he immediately became interested.
He told Willie to follow behind the ship first, and he would send someone right away.
The two hit it off immediately.
Willie immediately steered the small spaceship to follow the merchant ship from at a distance.
He did not go up to her either.
He would look at the ship and determine the position of the other party, so as not to lose them.
In the merchant ship.
“Miss, that guy has been following us, what should we do?”
Marlee frowned and said, “Don’t worry about him. Just keep going. I don’t believe that the Central Sacred Continent has no laws.”
“Yes, Miss!”
The merchant ship continues to move forward.
The small spaceship Willie drove followed far behind.
