Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning
Chapter 132 - 112: Accept the Escort! _2Chapter 132: Chapter 112: Accept the Escort! _2
The young prodigy naturally carried an air of exuberance and could not help but hold himself in high regard.
Since Wanxin Trading Company wanted to negotiate with Su Mo, they naturally had to take this into account, as the deal itself was not significant enough for the Store Manager to personally attend. However, sending someone of equivalent social status might lead Su Mo to believe that Wanxin Trading Company was belittling him.
A potential deal could thus fall through or even lead to conflict, creating unnecessary enemies.
Wanxin Trading Company, being in the trading business, always prioritized harmony, and the Store Manager was known for his steadiness. Naturally, he would not make such a mistake. Despite the inconvenience, he decided to visit in person, showing full respect to Ziyang Escort Agency in both face and substance, to facilitate the smooth progress of the matter.
Another reason was his desire to meet this newly famous young master, Su Mo.
The incident in Xuanji Valley had caused a huge stir, involving almost all the prominent figures in the Southwest.
This had resulted in Su Mo being seen as far above the ordinary young masters.
He seemed to have emerged as the leading figure among the young generation of the Southwest right from the beginning of his career.
Such a man, if not met in person, would indeed be a regret.
As he pondered thousands of thoughts, the sound of footsteps came from outside the door, and upon looking up, he saw a man and a woman stepping in.
The young man was majestic, with a handsome face, a smile on his lips, and a calm gaze, showing none of the arrogance typically associated with youthful success.
The young woman was exceptionally beautiful, with a light and unrestrained step, her eyes lively and carefree, though there was a hint of worry between her brows…
Without a doubt, these two were Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun.
As the Store Manager was considering his thoughts, he heard Su Mo’s voice:
“Lord Store Manager has personally graced us with his presence; I, Su, am truly remiss for not welcoming you from farther away. Please forgive me.”
“It’s no trouble at all.”
The Store Manager put down his teacup and stood up, smiling and saying: “Su, the Chief of the Escort is a young hero, whose name I have long heard. Seeing you today, I can confirm that your reputation is indeed well-deserved.”
Compliments are common in greetings, a practice that’s inevitable.
One doesn’t hear of a guest visiting and upon seeing the host, immediately insulting, “You ugly thing, how can you look like that?”
Encountering such a fool, beating them wouldn’t be enough; one would need to drag them back for another round of beating.
After exchanging greetings, the host and the guests took their respective seats, and after a bit of small talk, they got straight to the point.
“I wonder what brings the Store Manager here on this trip?” Su Mo asked with a smile.
“To be honest, this trip is to seek the help of Su, the Chief of the Escort,” the Store Manager said, not beating around the bush. “May I inquire if Ziyang Escort Agency has any business on hand at the moment?”
“Ziyang Escort Agency is currently in need of revitalization; as a younger member of Jianghu, I, Su, am relatively unknown and business has been slow. It’s actually quite a free period for us now.”
“Hahaha, Lord Su, you are too modest. After your stunning performance in the Xuanji Valley, your name is known throughout Jianghu. My ears have been filled with tales of it… It seems that my visit today is timely. If it were a few days later, I might have even missed the chance to meet Lord Su.”
The Store Manager paused slightly before continuing: “My visit is to request Lord Su to help escort a consignment to the Five Directions Gathering.”
“Five Directions Gathering?” Su Mo paused, aware that this lay within the sphere of influence of the Heavenly Blade Sect.
Strictly speaking, it was almost at the doorstep of the Heavenly Blade Sect.
The Five Directions Gathering was merely a day’s journey from the Mountain Gate of the Heavenly Blade Sect, similar to the distance between Pingfeng Town and Yuqing Mountain.
But while Pingfeng Town was just a small settlement at the foot of the mountain, Five Directions Gathering was a significant town.
Initially, it was a minor market, but with the protection of the Heavenly Blade Sect, it had grown increasingly larger, attracting merchants from all directions, despite being called Five Directions Gathering.
Traders from the north and south were a constant sight in the area.
“That’s right,” said the Store Manager, nodding. “Our Wanxin Trading Company has a modest reputation and conducts considerable business. We have several branches in the Five Directions Gathering. This time, we have a batch of high-quality silk and fabrics that we need to deliver to our branches there for business.”
He paused briefly, then added with a smile: “While our trading company does have its own team for escort, each bandit den has its own way, and after all, we are traders, somewhat unfamiliar in dealing with these Green Forest heroes… Speaking of which, I won’t conceal it from you, Wanxin Trading Company has often collaborated with Heavenly Gate Escort Agency in the past.
“However, the Heavenly Gate Escort Agency is currently too preoccupied to assist, which brought us to Ziyang Escort Agency.
“Lord Su’s fame from the battle in Xuanji Valley makes this trip an opportunity to leverage your reputation as a deterrent.
“If along the way there’s any need for arrangements to be made, just say the word, Lord Su; Wanxin Trading Company will bear all the expenses.”
Su Mo nodded slightly and said: “I see. May I know where these goods are at the moment? Can we inspect them?”
“Of course, that’s possible. The goods are currently stored in the main warehouse of Wanxin Trading Company in Luoxia City,” the Store Manager replied with a smile. “If you need to verify the goods, we can set out at any time.”
“Why not seize the day? How about right now?”
“Hahaha, Lord Su is indeed a man of swift words and action. Please, follow me.”
And so, the group left Ziyang Escort Agency. As Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun stepped out, they asked Xiao Chuan to bring a few brothers along with them.
