Is the person you sculpt as cute as me?

"Shit, who came up with this idea?! I'll use Yago's connections to kick you out right now!" Yu Man's face flushed instantly. It was hard to imagine that this day would come to pass.

Xiaolu immediately took screenshots crazily, showing the stunned Yu Man and his heroic statue.

He didn't forget to tease Yu Man: "Haha, it seems everyone still remembers you. Come and see, this is a seafood statue!"

217. Very good

The three people behind him were chattering, but it didn't affect the sculptor's work at all.

With great concentration and seriousness, he used a chisel and a hammer to polish Yu Man's memorial statue.

but--

The sculptor suddenly stopped working.

The sound of orderly footsteps could be heard from the main building lobby.

Not only that, the atmosphere seemed to condense into sharp needles, and everyone, even the animals, were captivated.

That was a trip for big shots.

A neatly organized group of followers, accompanied by two free men, emanated an aura that shook the entire guild's territory.

They were a father and daughter.

Yago walked steadily, not hiding his dignity at all.

Yu Man looked over curiously——

It's been a while since we last met, but Yago now has a set of armor worthy of his status in the game, including some level eight equipment.

Considering the current level of players is still not enough, I am afraid that it is the result of gambling. I really don’t know how much money was spent.

But what caught Yu Man's gaze was the pale yellow hue of Yago's equipment. It was obvious that they had used dye from a major city to color the entire set... Could it be that they had obtained dye? Could it be that they could actually do that?

The person next to Ya Ge is naturally his daughter.

The two chatted along the way——

"Daughter, did you meet that group of people when you sailed back?"

"No, the journey is safe, and the valuable dye has been delivered."

"Then you're in luck. According to the latest news we received, they're in that area again, causing some trouble."

"When I came back, I met—huh? It was Nanaka... Hey, Xiaolu, long time no see... Shit, it was Uncle Eel too."

The entire team stopped just because 70 saw Yu Man, Xiao Lu, and Liu Tong Qi Hua.

Yago was also stunned for a moment, and suddenly he was full of surprise: "Long time no see."

"Did you make this statue..." Yu Man's first sentence sounded weak.

"Of course, that's great, right? To commemorate your glorious first clear of the epic dungeon." Yago took two quick steps and walked over to his brother. "Awesome! I was even thinking of forming a team to give it a try, but you guys ended up crushing us. Hahaha, let's quickly commemorate this and take some credit."

Faced with the warm smiles of the father and daughter, Yu Man didn't know what to say and could only shamefully acquiesce to the matter.

Whatever, whatever.

as well as--

Yu Man has something important to ask them.

"Yago, did you use dye from the main city's altar on your equipment?"

"...Yes." Ya Ge was stunned. He didn't expect Yu Man to reveal this secret so easily. "Eel Brother also knows?"

Of course she knew, after all, this was a deliberate setting of the system.

Although each of the hundreds of main cities has its own advantages, many of them are located in remote corners or even in dangerous areas.

Generally speaking, trade routes will become hot and cold due to this.

However, players are evenly divided into 100 main cities. The system wants to ensure equal content for all players, so each main city is given unique trade advantages to ensure that all cities have trade to play.

This is the dye.

But to trigger the mission, you need to have a very good relationship with the local main city and be a experienced businessman.

Specifically, it means making a profit of more than 20,000 gold coins from maritime trade.

Only when these two conditions are met will the local main city reveal this series of hidden tasks to merchant players to unlock the dye trade.

And the dye on Yago's body means one thing.

In "Casual Viewing", a certain wealthy businessman achieved a rainbow achievement related to trade.

"Who revealed the hidden dye mission from the main city government?" Yu Man asked straight to the point.

Rainbow Achievement - Means rare soul weapon skills.

It means combat effectiveness.

With the team still short of two people, this is of course a priority.

Hearing Yu Man's question, Yago and 70 looked at each other in confusion, but remained open-minded.

"Look, this is the girl." Ya Ge patted 70's shoulder.

“…Huh? It’s 70.”

"Well, Uncle Eel, as you said, I did obtain this series of hidden quests... To be honest, I didn't expect you to notice it."

She admitted it openly and went with the flow.

Her eyes sparkled, and her words were full of enthusiasm and expectation.

"I have a way to monopolize the dye trade in a hundred major cities. This isn't empty talk. I'm ashamed, but I'd like to offer this as a gift, and also to benefit from the new guild you founded... Uncle Eel, are you willing to fulfill your niece's little wish?"

The little deer was laughing happily, thinking that this person was still the same as always.

Yu Man was stunned.

"My guild? Isn't that a lot of trouble? I told the craftsmen to just leave it to them. Are you willing to get involved?"

"Ok!"

Why would anyone bother me? I really don't understand.

But...this isn't a bad thing.

Xiaolu asked on Yu Man's behalf, "70, do you want to become the Trade King of the Old World?"

"Haha, just because it's fun! I've taken care of the shipyard, Shimlabakken, and the guild territory. My dad is busy with the overseas territories, so of course we can only expand overseas trade, so I want to take advantage of Uncle Eel's help."

"Aren't you taking the college entrance exam this year? If you're so enthusiastic about playing games, won't your business go bankrupt?" Xiaolu asked again.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. You have to seize the reality and the game as well. While you are still young, you should enrich yourself like crazy, so that when you take over the family business in the future, you won't destroy the family fortune. It's too early to buy reality - but start by buying this game."

It seems that the relationship between Xiaolu and 70 is better than expected.

They had a lot of interactions during the days when Yu Man was wandering overseas and left her alone in Shimlabaken.

Including the large amount of building materials support, manpower, ship references, etc. required by the shipyard.

Xiaolu even packed up the slaves who built the Mage Tower and the architect himself and sent them to Shimlabakken to support the construction.

Because of their similar family backgrounds and ages, they naturally have a lot in common.

Since Xiaolu also showed his goodwill, Yu Man spoke directly -

"The Chamber of Commerce should be run by those craftsmen now. I'll introduce you to them. But they clearly paid a price for the original shares and positions from me. You might not be able to become the leader of the Chamber of Commerce, but I should still be able to give you the title of a management cadre."

"That's enough! Thank you, Uncle Eel, I-"

"No, no, no." Yu Man waved her hand. "You can discuss the rest with Xiaolu, including the distribution of various benefits... I'm busy with other things right now and can't spare my attention."

"Do you need me to share your worries? Whether it's this world or reality?" 70 asked seriously.

"Yes." Yu Man looked at her with satisfaction. "You have a rainbow achievement, right?"

"Yes... there are two. One is for being the first to reach the eighth-level adventurer profession, and the other is for being the first to earn 10,000 gold coins in trade. Both are rainbow-colored."

“…What the hell?!” Yu Man almost jumped up.

two?

No, no, no, an eighth-rank adventurer? If I remember correctly, she was a shipwright...

"So what's your combat specialization?"

"I didn't order anything. I'm ashamed to say that I'm a trade and craftsman player."

"Fuck!" Yu Man really jumped up this time.

Nothing... ordered!

It means - this is a piece of uncut jade!

Yu Man calmed down and controlled himself: "70, I sincerely invite you to join our team and become our player in the spring season in a month."

"...Ah?" 70 didn't expect Yu Man to say that.

Not only her, but also Yago was stunned.

Xiaolu quickly poked Yu Man: "She's a senior in high school! How can she neglect her studies just to play games..."

"Senior year... well, there's nothing I can do about it... indeed."

Yu Man seemed to be enjoying eating rice cakes, but then he choked and became depressed.

I thought I had picked up a treasure... but I missed it.

70's family was naturally well-off, so the bonus wasn't enough to attract her. And as Yago had said before, 70 had rejected her family's arranged studies, instead working hard on her own, and achieving excellent results... It was really hard to find someone with such a clear vision for both the present and the future.

"...Spring Split?" Yago spoke from the side. "Brother Eel, are you planning to play in the Spring Split yourself?"

"Well, sorry, I have to become enemies with your team... and Brother Teng."

"It's okay, it doesn't matter. It's actually quite interesting." Yago hesitated for a moment, dismissed his followers and all the members, and said, "Let's go to the council hall and talk."

……

It is no longer under the gloomy sky, nor is it the simple guild territory building it once was.

The interior of the building is now very elegant and luxurious, and is already filled with the top heritage of the great guild.

In the solemnity of the council chamber—

Yago spoke calmly, "We're one of the sponsors of the Spring Split and have a deep understanding of the situation. The venue is still under debate, but the sponsorship amount, prize money, and scale of the event will all be world-class. So, many, many well-informed teams... are keeping an eye on it and hiding."

"Sponsor?" Yago actually has such an identity.

"It's just one of the insignificant sponsors," Yago continued. "So... it's going to be a very difficult match. I'm afraid my daughter isn't good enough to play... That's what I think."

"I... indeed... I've hardly ever fought with anyone, nor with monsters..." 70 was also a little afraid, and his tone lacked the calmness he had before.

But the strange thing was that there was a glint of curiosity in her eyes.

"However, my thoughts are my thoughts," Ya Ge asked Yu Man, "the question is - from your perspective, do you need her?"

"It's not a question of whether or not she's needed, but she could become a very capable person, and I happen to have two vacancies on my team."

"—No, no, no, it's necessary! It's necessary!"

Unlike Yu Man who was ready to make a rational analysis, Xiao Lu raised his hands and shouted as if he was going to lead a revolution.

"There are only three of us on our team! But I really don't want to play offline with people I don't know... 70 is fine."

"But she has to prepare for the college entrance examination..." Yu Man was still worried about this.

After all, I was the one who was kicked out of the house and interrupted my studies, and I don’t want to interfere with other people’s studies.

……

ps

(The first update was in the evening, so this is not a single update.)

218 Only a small update

The conversation was at this point - Yago's confidant knocked on the door and walked in, handing over a letter in an annoyed manner.

This made Yu Man feel a little strange.
