The Anarchic Consort (Book 1)

Chapter 81-85

Usually, everyone who met Hei Ze feared him, because his body had a strong scent of bloodlust. Even the disciples of distinguished military families dared not provoke him.

However, Helian Wei Wei didn't look the least bit timid. The corners of her mouth half raised as she said in a cold voice, "We're not exploiting each other, but partnering. Young Master Hei's doing business. During a business transaction, one always maintain one's business partner's confidentiality. That way, we can go for the long term. Let's not speak anymore of other matters. Where's the silver?"

Hei Ze turned his thin lips down and extended his hand. The black cloth fell down, underneath was layer upon layers of closely packed silver ingots, "A total of one hundred thousand taels. You can go look at the accounts book, and confirm whether or not it's this figure."

Swish!

As Wei Wei lifted the black cloth to cover again, she expressionlessly said, "Since Young Master Hei said it's a hundred thousand taels, then it's a hundred thousand taels. Doing business, only talk business."

Hei Ze's finger paused as a light flashed in his eyes. Seeing that she wanted to go, he couldn't help but open his mouth to ask, "Why didn't you tell them that you don't need to depend on Grandmaster at all in order to climb up but rather, you can truly make armaments?"

Wei Wei's footsteps paused. Her long and shapely eyebrows creased a bit and answered Hei Ze with merely two words, "Too troublesome."

Hearing that, Hei Ze felt deeply sympathetic. It's precisely because he's rather successful with respect to armaments that people unceasingly came to the Fine Compound to bother him, asking him to move to the Superior Compound.

Unfortunately, he's not interested at all in possessing higher levels of qi. He'd rather use all of his time to make more money.

More so than young masters from other influential families, he enjoyed the feeling of holding the world's wealth in the palm of his hand.

That's why the Hei family had no less than several tens of large and small shops within the capital.

But he never thought of depending on armaments to make money before.

Until he received a letter and three armaments not long ago. He then partnered with a armament shop at the foot of the mountain.

The difference between this armament shop and others was that it didn't retail quality products but instead manufactured in bulk.

Not everybody only wanted one piece of armament, right? They could be this supplier.

However, the armament's quality completely depended on how much money was paid.

If more silver was paid, then the quality of the armaments were good.

If less silver was paid, the quality would correspondingly be lower.

Even though it's like this, there's still a mad rush for their products in the market, because as far as a martial artist was concerned, being able to obtain an armament of their own simply was the most important thing in the world.

Even students at White Academy were scouting for connections in order to get their hands on an armament.

Heh, if they knew that the armaments they coveted were made by that one they called a good-for-nothing, wonder what kind of expressions they'd have.

Not only that, this shop wasn't even opened by him. He merely helped give that 'good-for-nothing' a job outside of class time.

Hei Ze's mouth curved as his eyes shined slightly, "Still, this Helian Wei Wei is quite interesting."
