Chapter 1255: A Great Opportunity
Everyone was stunned...
The elders of the Shendao Sect were completely dumbfounded. They never expected such a huge bargain!
For a moment.
The old men all stood frozen in place, unable to utter a single word, their faces filled with a strange expression of disbelief.
Seeing their expressions.
Yi Feng could tell at a glance that these old guys were probably feeling a bit of regret.
This meant that the price he had set was indeed a great deal.
But there was no way they could back out now. With a wave of his hand, Yi Feng decisively declared, "From now on, this mine is yours!"
"To celebrate our successful cooperation, I'll also throw in a year of after-sales service."
As soon as he finished speaking, the old men looked utterly confused, "After-sales service?"
Seeing their bewilderment.
Yi Feng gradually realized that his terminology might be a bit too advanced for these natives of the cultivation world. They probably couldn't keep up with such modern concepts.
He slapped his forehead and laughed, then began to explain.
"Yes, after-sales service!"
"Within this year, I guarantee the safety of this mine. If anyone comes to cause trouble, you can call on me to handle it at any time. Business is all about trust, so you can rest assured!"
Yi Feng patted his chest and made a solemn promise, his mind already calculating the benefits.
He wasn't just spouting nonsense on a whim.
After all, he had gone through a lot of trouble to create this conflict, and he was counting on the forces behind the mine to come looking for trouble.
Although he had made a profit from selling the mine, just making money didn't feel satisfying enough.
Besides, these buyers were so honest. If he didn't take responsibility for the previous conflict, wouldn't that be cheating them?
This was killing two birds with one stone!
Could an average person come up with such a brilliant plan?
As Yi Feng explained in simpler terms, the old men's faces lit up with joy.
"Guaranteed safety for a year?"
"Is this for real?!"
They were well aware that the Northern Desert was a place where various forces intertwined. A mine like this could be worth a fortune. To have someone guarantee its safety for a whole year was unheard of. Even a month of peace would be hard to come by in such a volatile region.
Did this man really have such confidence?
Facing their skepticism, Yi Feng waved his hand with a carefree smile.
"My word is my bond!"
"Within this year, you can rest easy. No matter who comes to cause trouble, just notify me, and I'll take care of it!"
He was dead serious.
Yi Feng would never go back on his word!
If anyone came looking for trouble, he would be more than happy to engage in a bloody battle. Such an opportunity couldn't be passed up!
Seeing Yi Feng's confidence and hearing his promises.
The Shendao Sect elders were already seven parts convinced!
This man had managed to control such a large mine so perfectly, even keeping it under wraps. His methods were already impressive, and now he had the confidence to make such bold promises. He was clearly no ordinary person!
Regardless of his motives, this sudden stroke of fortune left the Shendao Sect members utterly shocked. They couldn't help but feel that Yi Feng was even more unfathomable than they had initially thought.
With cautious respect, the elders cupped their hands in salute, their faces filled with reverence.
"Thank you, fellow Daoist!"
"Your generosity is something we will never forget!"
With the deal settled, Yi Feng invited the buyers to inspect the mine.
Not long after.
Under his guidance, the Shendao Sect elders toured the bustling mining site. The lively scene of miners hard at work immediately impressed them. Lin Ruochen and the others, being perceptive, personally led the group for a closer look.
They examined everything with great attention, taking their time to observe every detail.
Yi Feng, the seller, wasn't in a hurry. He sat under a shaded pavilion, sipping tea and waiting patiently.
At the foot of the mine.
Dust and sparks flew everywhere as the mining operation proceeded at an astonishing pace. The Shendao Sect elders were left speechless, unable to fathom what kind of methods could have recruited such incredible miners!
Before their eyes, nearly half the mountain had already been excavated, with countless mining tunnels of various sizes scattered across the site.
At this rate, the mine's output would be unprecedented!
The elders exchanged glances, their eyes filled with awe.
Before the joy of their impending windfall could fully sink in, the lead elder's eyes suddenly widened in shock.
"This...!"
The other elders were startled and followed his gaze.
They saw a large cart being pushed by a burly cultivator. The man was covered in soot, but the distinctive outline of black armor was still visible, and he exuded a palpable aura of menace.
Black armor, dragon-engraved shoulder plates!
Just seeing that attire made the elders' breath hitch.
These miners were actually Black Dragon Divine Guards?!
Holy...
The Shendao Sect members felt as if they had been struck by lightning. They were even more shocked by Yi Feng's capabilities. They never imagined that the Black Dragon Divine Guards could be enslaved by this man, toiling away in the mine!
No wonder the mine's output was so extraordinary!
No wonder this man dared to make such bold promises about after-sales service for a year!
Such methods were truly terrifying!
In the eyes of ordinary people, this mine might be a priceless treasure, but to this senior, it was probably just a trivial thing, something he could discard at any moment...
The Shendao Sect elders were utterly astounded, but they also felt an immense sense of honor.
Looking back at the shaded pavilion in the distance, they felt even more that Yi Feng was an unfathomable figure.
While the senior didn't care much for the mine, they had stumbled upon a great bargain and had the chance to befriend such a powerful figure. The value of this connection far exceeded the mine itself!
The Shendao Sect had truly encountered a great opportunity.
They had hit the jackpot...
This was an absolute win!
With this in mind, the lead elder took a deep breath to calm himself, silently vowing to make the most of this opportunity.
Returning to the pavilion, the Shendao Sect elders bowed respectfully.
"Thank you, Senior, for your generosity. We have nothing of great value to offer, but aside from the agreed-upon 1.5 billion spirit crystals, we would like to present some small tokens of our gratitude."
With that, they brought out various magical artifacts.
Seeing the customers' enthusiasm, Yi Feng was pleasantly surprised. Even though the items looked like ordinary trinkets, they were still a gesture of goodwill.
It was only polite to reciprocate.
Unfortunately, he had no use for such things, so he decided to pass them on to the miners.
After some cheerful conversation, the mine was officially handed over.
Yi Feng received eighteen purple crystal cards, while the miners were given the various trinkets. Everyone parted ways with smiles on their faces. Lin Ruochen and the others set off to find their ancestor, and farewells echoed through the air.
"Senior, you are truly unfathomable!"
Watching the distant figure of Yi Feng disappear into the horizon, the group couldn't help but express their admiration and respect.
