Chapter 292 Reputation
Evidently, this meant that Zen possessed heavenly essence in arge quantity. More importantly, he
might have even known how to make the heavenly essence.
Zen nodded. "Wurth, I want to sell the heavenly essence through an auction at Blessed Auction House
which I havee to realize is a win-win situation for your family. That sounds right?" Zenid down
the incentives.
Wurth expressed his agreement with a rather enthusiastic nod.
"By now you must have gotten a thorough understanding of my doubts. I fear that your family must be
under great pressure if the heavenly essence is to be auctioned several more times. Can you handle
that?" asked Zen. He tried to express his concerns.
Wurth took a deep and heavy sigh.
Zen was right to worry and be concerned about that.
After all nothing in this world was certain and anything could happen under any circumstance.
Even though Zhang Family was strong in terms of both their political and financial standing, it was still
inferior to the top seven noble ns.
It was normal and easy for the Zhang Family to auction the heavenly essence once, because there had
been other extremely lucky warriors who could get ahold of it.
However, if the Zhang Family were to auction heavenly essence every month, it would most certainly
arouse suspicion and draw unnecessary attention.
And all of this would mean only one thing. Either some clients of the Zhang Family must have arge
inventory of the heavenly essence or they had the very method of producing it in mass.
Once the noble ns chanced upon this significant development, they would put an enormous amount
of pressure on the Zhang Family. One way or another, the Zhang Family would break under stress and
confess as to how they came upon the heavenly essence.
There was a risk there, no man could deny it.
All of a sudden, Wurth chuckled and then addressed Zen, "You are getting too worked up and stressed,
Zen."
This change in tone surprised Zen. After pausing for a moment Zen said, "Can you do anything to
avoid this pertinent risk? Can you control your familypletely?"
A smile appeared on Wurth''s face as he spoke, "Zen, you barely know my family. With that said, you
have no idea of how my family deals with troubles or reacts under any circumstance. Our auction
house has been handling business for many years and has always managed to work out solutions for
all sorts of problems. You''d be surprised at what all we can handle. Many warriors shared your doubts
and were reluctant to sell their treasures at our auction house. What''s more, some warriors, after killing
people and taking away their weapons, wanted to sell them. However, since those weapons were
illegal possessions, they also didn''t want to face troubles and bypass thew. We had toe up with
some ideas to ensure that they remained safe while selling those illegally-procured weapons at our
premises."
Killing owners and taking away treasures had be amon urrence reported almost every
day and night.
Even those young men from the noble ns could be robbed of their spiritual and mysterious weapons
and get killed in broad daylight.
Some spiritual weapons were taken away from others. Therefore, they couldn''t be auctioned easily at
the auction houses as there always ran the risk of previous owners of those weapons finding clues or
even traces indicating the robbers or even killers identity.
The Zhang Family was clever and always managed to find alternative methods to solve problems and
avoid the potential risks in this illegal business.
Right before the auction, the treasures would be hidden at some secret spots, and the addresses to
these ces were written on a piece of paper by some third parties. Then, this piece of parchment
would be sent across to a responsible man from the Blessed Auction House, who would pick the
treasures. In this inconspicuous manner, the entire auction would be conducted without even shedding
light on the owners or the purchasers of the treasures.
Even employees of the Blessed Auction House didn''t have a clue about who bought or sold the
treasures.
This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.
When the auction was safely carried out, the auction house would make a small charge. The collected
cubic crystals would be stored in an unregistered token and sent to the sellers. Then the whole
transaction ended.
Wurth exined this entire sequence to Zen and then added, "Please don''t worry. I''ll tell my family to
ensure the entire transaction to be carried out in this way. That way, your identity will remain unknown
to everybody but me. In fact, no one will ever know you''re involved."
Zen took a deep breath as he replied, "I understand." All this while he was concerned about how to
hide his identity and sell the heavenly essence secretly. Now Wurth had worked out a clear path out of
the transaction. Besides, the Blessed Auction House had been doing this for so many years that the
sellers'' interest was a matter of the utmost importance and would be protected.
"But, I will ask you again, are you sure you want me to sell the 55 drops of heavenly essence for you?"
Wurth tried to crack a sly joke without even smiling.
"Haha, those cubic crystals may be a big fortune for other people, but not you, the third son of the
powerful and wealthy Zhang Family. I have confidence in you, my friend," said Zen. Wurth had a big
picture in his mind and wouldn''t sacrifice his long-term goals for some short-sighted profits. Besides,
Zen told him that he had already taken possession of more heavenly essence than these drops. Wurth
would be a fool to illegally grab those 55 drops of heavenly essence and give up more of them.
He knew for sure that if he really did that, Zen would not sell any more heavenly essences to him.
Besides, Zen would get extremely annoyed. Wurth couldn''t stay at the Drizzle Peak and had to guard
carefully against Zen. His sacrifices would mean much more than a half millions of cubic
crystals.
