“How many?”

“300 or so, most of them are white ones…”

Ever since Autumn Love was branded with the Shameless title, she was no longer secretive in her interactions with Li Yi. No more brain-twisters, no more extraneous actions, nothing at all.

‘This was no surprise though, as her problems could be pinned on her ‘stellar’ reputation. If she were to piss off Li Yi as well, then she would truly be a loner forever.’

Li Yi asked, “How much are you prepared to sell each item for?”

Autumn Love went silent as she contemplated on the price. She then answered, “300 Gold Coins per piece, how’s that?”

“Sounds good to me. I’ll take all of them.”

Li Yi gave a curt reply. The moment he heard the price Autumn Love offered, he did not even bother to haggle and immediately bought them all.

As of that moment, Holy Equipment were the hottest items on the market. Even though Li Yi had offered 200 Gold Coins per Holy Equipment, there was not a single person who took it up. From this event alone, it had already portrayed the scarcity of the Holy Equipment.

Of course, Li Yi had no trouble doubling the price he offered, but there was a reason he abstained from doing so. This was because he still needed a large volume of Holy Equipment in the future. If he were to raise their prices now, it would come back to bite him later.

“T-Thanks… There’s a total of 336 pieces, so for 300 Gold Coins per piece, you would need to pay 100,800 Gold Coins.” Autumn Love promptly delivered her report.

“I’ll give you 110,000. Is your account still Winter Dong Dong Dong?”

“Umm hmm…”

Li Yi opened his bank account and transferred over 110,000 Gold Coins to her account.

“I’ve already sent the money.”

“Thanks, um, about the equipment, you need to head to the entrance of the Celestial Capital’s Auction House to look for a person called Winter Dong Dong Dong. He’s holding the items for me.”

“The entrance to the Celestial Capital’s Auction House? But I’m already here…”

Outside the gates of the Auction House, the shouts of the big-headed kid from before were still faintly audible.

Li Yi smiled wryly, closed his chat window, and walked towards the kid with a huge head.

“The name’s Dark Wing, Autumn Love told me to trade with you.”

Li Yi cut straight to the chase.

The kid with a huge cranium stared at Li Yi with his tiny little eyes and with his mouth hung open for about five minutes before nodding. “My name’s Winter Dong Dong Dong.”

“…”

‘Isn’t his reaction a tad too slow?’

“What’s Autumn Love to you?”

While making conversation, Li Yi made sure to send over a trade request as well.

Big Head 1 stared in a daze for quite a while before giving a simple-minded reply. “My…my sister.”

‘The sister’s a big fat scammer, but this kid’s really absent-minded.’

After waiting for quite some time, Li Yi still did not receive the trade panel. By this point, Li Yi was starting to grow worried. He urged, “Click the trade option.”

“Okay…”

The Trade Panel had finally appeared, but after ten or so seconds, Big Head had only put in one item.

“Please click confirm for now. I’ll put in everything one by one. There’s too many for me to handle.”

“I…”

Ding!

The first trade had been successfully carried out. Then, Li Yi could hear Winter Dong Dong Dong giving out a long sigh. “First piece.”

After carrying on this farce three more times, Li Yi could no longer take it. He sent a private message to Autumn Love stating, “Black-hearted Chick, this won’t do. It might work if it’s only a small transaction, but there are about 300 items. Are you trying to toy me, trading each item one by one?”

Autumn Love tensed up. “No, why…why would I toy with you? I’ll ask, hold on…”

After ten or so minutes, Autumn Love wearily replied, “Alright, I’ve explained it properly to him. He’ll be giving you the full amount this time.”

Li Yi sent another trade request, and Winter Dong Dong Dong quickly accepted. He then put in a huge pile of items and completed the trade.

Li Yi double-checked the stock, and he counted a total of 350 items. It was even higher than the 336 pieces that Autumn Love told him about. It seemed like Winter Dong Dong Dong had accepted another batch of stock.

Li Yi then opened Winter Dong Dong Dong’s bank account and deposited 20,000 Gold Coins into it. He was not about to take advantage of this situation.

“Winter Dong Dong Dong gave me an additional 14 items. So, I’ve keyed in 20,000 Gold Coins into his account.”

“Brother Dark Wing, I knew that you were a good person,” whimpered Autumn Love. Though they were a ways from one another, Li Yi could clearly hear that she was moved.

“I’m not as good a person as you think. Stop using your old gimmicks, just get straight to the point. Tell me what you need help on.”

Li Yi’s words immediately made Autumn Love go silent.

“What now? Don’t feel like talking anymore?”

While talking with Autumn Love, Li Yi Teleported to Shattered Frost City and walked into Little Drunk Cat’s Guild Map.

Back at the entrance of the Auction House, Big Head furrowed his brows and counted with his fingers. He then rushed towards the direction where Li Yi disappeared, and screamed, “B-B-B-B-Brooooooooo… E-E-E-E-E-E-Equipment…. L-L-L-Lesss….”

It was not that Winter Dong Dong Dong could not speak fast, but rather, once he picked up the speed, no one else except him would understand his words…

“I’m really not asking for anything. Honestly…” The Black Hearted Chick refused to admit it.

“You’re really not going to tell me?”

“There was nothing to tell to begin with, so what could I say? Hehehe…” Autumn Love gave maniacal laugh.

“Big Headed Dong Dong has been buying Holy Equipment for days at the Auction House, and at 300 Gold Coins per piece. Isn’t this your doing? Also, you told him to buy the items for 300 Gold Coins per piece, and now you’re selling them back for 300? You’re not taking a dime, Black-hearted Chick, does this really sound like you?”

“Err..Er…”

“Now speak, what do you need my help with? I’m feeling pretty good now, so if you tell me now, I just might accept.”

“For real?”

“Speak.”

“Uwahwah, I…I wanted to borrow money from you.”

Autumn Love stated her desire in a pitiful tone.

She was not to blame for her haphazard speech. After all, she knew that her chances of getting Li Yi to lend her money were basically zero if she stated it directly. She had tried it plenty of times in the past, but even so, Li Yi had always given her the slip, ignoring her requests and refusing to cooperate.
