Chapter 424: Chapter 258 Guest Elder_2
Having witnessed together the upgrade of the Second Grade Golden Lotus to the Third, the relationship between the two had grown significantly closer.
Li Shiming served the Second Grade Spirit Tea, not because he was stingy, but because serving Second Grade Spirit Tea suited his status better, while serving Third Grade Spirit Tea might seem like showing off.
The Chief Manager Lai naturally praised the Second Grade Spirit Tea, genuinely appreciating it. The Spirit Tea that Li Shiming roasted in his mechanical space room was, just like the Spirit Pills he concocted there, the epitome of quality.
“Mr. Li, I gather you’ve already negotiated with the Qianye Temple. I too was sent here to be a mediator, hoping you could take on the alchemy task without questioning its origin,” the Chief Manager Lai said after tasting the Second Grade Spirit Tea, bringing up the primary purpose of his visit.
“Chief Manager Lai, I didn’t expect my whimsical act to trouble you to make this trip. Indeed, I have already reconciled with the Qianye Temple!” Li Shiming replied with a smile.
The Chief Manager Lai had received the news before his arrival, but it was reached before Li Shiming had returned, and considering Li Shiming’s youth and vigor, a reversal was very likely.
Hearing the confirmation from Li Shiming’s own lips, the Chief Manager Lai finally breathed a sigh of relief, his smile more genuine.
“Mr. Li, I heard you have ‘Youthful Elixirs’ in your possession?” the Chief Manager Lai shifted the subject, seemingly asking casually.
Yet, Li Shiming noticed a flash of eagerness in the Chief Manager Lai’s eyes, which, he suspected, was probably the most important reason for the Chief Manager’s visit.
The incident with the Thousand Illusion Sect had only happened a few days ago, yet the Beishu Trading Company had already received the news, reflecting their significant influence on the Beishu Continent.
Having taken out the ‘Youthful Elixirs’ for trade at the Thousand Illusion Sect, he had anticipated today’s situation.
