The Blonde Beauty had just arrived beside Lin, and they had only just begun their conversation.
At this moment, Lin's gaze flickered as he focused on the badge on the Blonde Beauty's chest, quickly realizing that she was a senior manager from the Warrior Exchange.
But why did they come to find him so suddenly?
Lin was filled with confusion, just like Fatty next to him, who was equally puzzled.
"I am."
After pondering for a moment without any results, Lin decided not to think too much about it. It would be quite rude to leave someone hanging for too long, and he certainly wouldn't act so discourteously.
"Hello, Mr. Lin, I am the supervisor of the current service area, Yan Shan."
The woman who claimed to be the supervisor smiled even more charmingly, her enchanting eyes fixed on Lin.
"Is there something you need?"
Lin was not particularly interested in beautiful women; his tone remained neutral. He only cared about what could help him create more delicious dishes, clearly indicating that her charms were not effective on him.
"Mr. Lin, we observed from the back that you have a very rare medicinal item for sale. We were wondering if you would be interested in selling it directly to our exchange?"
Seeing that Lin did not respond, Yan Shan naturally withdrew her flirtatious demeanor. Even though her charm offensive had failed, she spoke without any embarrassment, clearly an experienced individual skilled in reading people and social situations.
If a little charm didn't work, she thought of other ways to approach him. In the eyes of these seasoned traders, everyone had weaknesses—power, beauty, or money. As long as they could find Lin's vulnerability, they were confident they could win him over!
Yan Shan thought this way but did not realize that the guy in front of her was someone who was impervious to such tactics; he was a young man with dreams!
In the face of dreams, everything is but gravel; only by creating more delicious dishes can Lin achieve his ultimate goal.
"Yes... I want to sell, and I don't mind who I sell to."
Lin frowned slightly, hesitating as he stepped out. He felt that the atmosphere was somewhat off. Why would the higher-ups from the Warrior Exchange come directly to him? Could it be that things were getting serious?
"May I ask Mr. Lin for a moment of your time?"
A glimmer of joy appeared in Yan Shan's eyes. As long as there was a desire to talk, there would always be a way to reach an agreement. It seemed that this time, she was going to secure a significant achievement!
"Um... okay..."
Lin Ye didn't think much and was about to agree, at most just observing how this woman would proceed; if they couldn't reach an agreement, then so be it.
But before Lin could speak, Fatty lunged over and shouted, "Wait a minute, bro!"
This shout startled both Lin and Yan Shan. Immediately after, Fatty ran to Lin's side and whispered in his ear, "Don't go! Bro, she's definitely up to no good! She's got her eyes on our treasure!"
"Up to no good?" Lin was taken aback, somewhat confused.
"She's part of a scam! They send out a pretty woman to lure us in, then take us to a secluded corner where a bunch of big guys jump out to rob us!"
As he spoke quietly, Fatty even raised his index finger and mimicked slitting his throat...
Lin turned his head and looked at Fatty as if he were an idiot... The woman had all her credentials in order and exuded an air of sophistication. Besides, would she really lead them into an alley? Lin Ye wasn't foolish enough to fall for that!
Yan Shan beside them felt slightly awkward; her hearing was excellent, and she could clearly hear Fatty's words.
Lin Bie looked at Yan Shan and said, "I don't know this Fatty! We can leave now and find a quiet place to discuss."
With that, Lin and the smiling Yan Shan walked away, leaving Fatty alone in the cold wind, confused.
"Bro! I was wrong! Wait for me!"
...
In the monitoring room of the Warrior Exchange.
"Hahaha! This Fatty Chen really knows how to talk nonsense. Fishing? Who would dare to fish at the exchange? That's like walking into the line of fire!"
Yuming sat in a leather chair, laughing heartily, nearly falling over. On the screen in front of him were the figures of Fatty and Lin.
The entire monitoring room echoed with Yuming's laughter, but the atmosphere inside was anything but pleasant. Except for Yuming, all the staff kept their heads down, carefully adjusting settings, afraid of making any mistakes.
As the highest authority of the Warrior Exchange, Yuming had never been to such a place before. His unusual presence here was a significant event for the staff! No one dared to be careless!
"Bss, please mind your image."
The Black-Clad Man beside him couldn't watch any longer and quietly reminded Yuming.
Only then did Yuming stop laughing. He cleared his throat awkwardly, straightened his face, and said seriously, "Ahem, make sure they find a way to get me that vial of potion, no matter the cost!"
"Yes!" The big man replied loudly but then hesitated for a moment before quietly asking, "Bss, why do we care so much about this vial of potion?"
"It is the breakthrough I have been searching for... it is also my hope of returning to my family... You understand what I mean, right?"
Yuming's eyes lost their playful glint as he spoke seriously, suggesting that a significant story lay hidden within his words.
"I understand now, BSS. We should spare no effort!"
The Black-Clad Man nodded and immediately turned to leave.
...
After the large man exited the monitoring room, he navigated through the winding corridor and passed several heavily secured password doors before finally entering a room.
This was a peculiar room; the wall directly opposite the entrance was made of transparent material. It was unclear what technology had been used, but it allowed a clear view of the room across from it, while those inside the other room could not see this side.
Inside the opposite room sat Lin, Fatty, and Yan Shan, who seemed to have been discussing for a while.
"So, Mr. Lin actually doesn't want much money; he just wants a live Willow Leaf Turtle?"
Yan Shan looked surprised, furrowing her brows as she gazed at the young man across from her. She couldn't fathom what he was thinking—trading such a rare potion for a seemingly useless yet expensive Willow Leaf Turtle?
"Yes, I just want to exchange for a Willow Leaf Turtle. Alternatively, you can trade both money and the Willow Leaf Turtle together!"
Lin's expression was completely natural; it seemed only right to him...
"Uh..." Yan Shan was at a loss for words, her face turning purple as she struggled to respond to this question.
"Of course! Our potion is so valuable; one Willow Leaf Turtle isn't enough. It should be..."
Fatty chimed in to inflate the price. Initially, he raised one finger intending to ask for one million but reconsidered and raised another finger. "Add two hundred thousand more, and we can make the trade!"
"Please wait a moment, Mr. Lin. Such a large amount, I'm afraid I can't make a decision on my own. Let me inquire."
Yan Shan pretended to place her index finger on her ear, as if adjusting an earpiece, but in reality, she was just trying to pressure Lin Ta regarding the price.
She already knew that she could approve up to ten million. A Willow Leaf Turtle and two million would only be around eight million, so Yan Shan could still make the decision.
Just as she was pretending, Yan Shan suddenly froze; the communicator in her ear actually rang.
"Offer them ten million and ask if they are willing to sell!"
It was the Black-Clad Man speaking. He could not only see Lin Ta's expressions but also hear their discussions clearly.
Yan Shan paused for less than a second, her mind racing. As expected of a seasoned businessperson, she quickly turned the conversation around and said without hesitation, "Mr. Lin, we are offering ten million. What do you think?"
"How much?"
Fatty jumped up. He had initially thought they would be lucky to get seven or eight million, but he never expected the opening offer to be ten million!
"Money is not important; I just need to ensure that your price includes a Willow Leaf Turtle..."
Lin raised his eyelids slightly, took a sip of the cool tea on the table, appearing so calm.
