Chapter 347 - 347: Visiting the Qing You Pavilion Chamber of Commerce for the First Time
“Lord Su Wan, is there anything else you need?”
“It would be helpful if you can find more information on special treasures, especially armor.”
After a short discussion, the two Lords left.
“Did you notice the man beside Su Wan? He seemed to be very powerful,” said one of the Lords.
“I’ve never seen him before.”
They decided to put every effort into helping Su Wan. If they made a good impression, it would work in their favor in the future.
Besides, Su Wan was so generous. She was willing to give them A-class treasures!
For Lords, A-class treasures were very precious.
Su Wan hadn’t lied to them. She did have a few useful treasures she had obtained from the dwarves. If the two Lords found her the information she needed, she would reward them generously.
Subduing the Vampire Duke was of the utmost importance right now.
If Su Wan could subdue and recruit the vampire hero, the strength of her territory would soar. Although Su Wan herself wasn’t strong, she was smart enough to make up for it in other ways.
The next morning, the carriage with the Frostwolf family’s coat of arms drove out of the gates of the Lavender Manor.
At the Qing You Pavilion Chamber of Commerce, Nami looked at the eager Zorro with amusement.
President Nami was dressed in a red gown today. There were blooming roses embroidered on the helm. She looked beautiful.
No one dared to stare at her. President Nami, despite her feminine charms, wasn’t someone to trifle with. She had killed the enemies of the Qing You Pavilion Chamber of Commerce until the land was awash with blood.
“You’re saying that Lord Su Wan and the Dark Demon Dragon are here in Canglan City? Are you sure?”
Zorro smiled brightly. “Yes, president Nami. Lady Tristana brought them along with her.”
A maid had informed them that the guests would be visiting today.
Nami smiled radiantly. Zorro’s words uplifted her mood. She was always curious about
Su Wan after they had made a deal of the Hundred Night Flower Honey.
Nami was curious whether Su Wan was as extraordinary as Zorro made her out to be. She still recalled what he had said when she wanted to recruit the Lord to her Chamber of Commerce. He had said they didn’t have the authority to do something like that.
Tristana gestured out of the window. Xu Yuan turned to look. The buildings were densely packed. Unlike the Lavender Manor, the Qing You Pavilion Chamber of Commerce was a cluster of buildings.
The road branched out to the entrance of the buildings. Many carriages went in and out. The place was bustling with activity.
The guards wore crisp uniforms. The managers seemed to wear medals on their lapels to set them apart from others.
The carriage slowly drove through. It finally reached a wide open space in front of the main building.
They saw Zorro ready to receive them.
“Lord Xu Yuan and Lord Su Wan, you’re finally here!” said Zorro excitedly. “1 can’t believe you are finally here in Canglan City!”
“Zorro, it’s been so long since 1 last saw you,” said Su Wan.
“Alas, Lord Su Wan, 1 can’t visit you as often as 1 want to. It takes two months to go back and forth between this city and your territory. I sometimes wish your territory was closer.”
Zorro really admired and respected Su Wan for being able to develop her territory so much despite living in a harsh and secluded place. A dry and barren place was not suitable for ordinary people.
“Lady Tristana, forgive my rudeness. I was ignoring you. It’s just that it has been so long since 1 saw Lord Su Wan and Lord Xu Yuan.” Zorro bowed to Tristana.
“I understand,” said Tristana. “1 would like to thank you for helping me establish contact with Lord Su Wan. If it hadn’t been for you, 1 might have never known about them.”
“It seems your meeting has been fruitful,” said Zorro. “1 wish you the best in becoming the successor of the Frostwolf family.”
Tristana had never hidden her desire to become the heir of the Frostwolf family. Her goal was always firm, and she was always truthful about it.
After exchanging greetings, Zorro led them through the huge front doors.
There was a giant blooming flower in a glass dome in the center of the hall.
“This flower was built when the Qing You Pavilion Chamber of Commerce was founded. It’s the symbol of our Chamber of Commerce.”
The building had a temperature-ad justing mechanism. It reminded Su Wan of the Ice Elf Statue that Tristana had given her.
Xu Yuan turned around to look. The place was exquisite.
There were paintings on the wall. The decorations were luxurious and elegant. It was clear that this was old money. Nobody could collect so many paintings and antiques in just a few years.
The staff members were meticulous. They went about their jobs efficiently.
Other Lords passed them, but they didn’t dare approach them here. They only watched from afar.
Xu Yuan found the elevator amusing. The world’s technology had advanced so much. Although it wasn’t as advanced as Blue Planet’s technology, it was still remarkable.
Zorro pulled open the door of the alchemy elevator with a flourish and let them step in..
