It was proven that as long as one was strong enough, one could have anything they wanted.

Although Lin Xuan was not entirely popular, almost everyone in the upper circles of Taixia Country knew about him. Plus the human relationship that he gained from trading, even those powerhouses behind various markets would not hesitate to befriend him.

It was naturally impossible for them to come personally, but they ordered their subordinates to pay close attention to him. It was just a matter of word of mouth.

When the shops Zhoufu Jewelry and Dafeng Jewelry heard that Lin Xuan was looking for ancient gold coins, which were relatively rare and considered luxury goods, the people in charge immediately perked up and took out a large number of ancient gold coins from their warehouse to send to Lin Xuan.

“Hello Lin Xuan, how are you? You’ve been outstanding on the battlefield during the rainy season. You’re a young hero. We heard that you were looking for ancient gold coins, so we, Zhoufu Jewelry and Dafeng Jewelry, specially found some and brought them over to you. We’re also here to send our regards to you on behalf of the Bright Phoenix!”

A man and a woman came to Lin Xuan’s room early in the morning and gave him a large box of ancient gold coins without a word. To be honest, Lin Xuan was dumbfounded when he took it, but he still nodded his head.

“Thank you. I was looking around for this but there’s no need to give it to me. I’ll just buy it at the market price!”

After some thought and analysis, Lin Xuan took the box of ancient gold coins and pushed it away. He knew that free gold coins came at a higher expense in the future.

“Ah, this is a small matter. It’s fine… Ah… Okay.”

The two of them looked at each other and finally agreed to Lin Xuan’s payment. To be honest, it was their first or second time dealing with such an exchange. They rarely came into contact with students from Di Yi because they had no chance to do so.

Lin Xuan didn’t think much of the people in charge.

They had thought that the students of the top nine schools would be more arrogant and difficult to get along with. They had even been prepared that Lin Xuan would have more excessive demands. Unexpectedly, he was so kind and easy to deal with.

The two people walked out of the gate of the community happily as they watched the money roll into their bank accounts. Closely after that, they turned around and took a look at the school.

“He’s considered a top talent in Taixia Country. How can he look so ordinary?”

“Who knows? By the way, do you think he’ll agree if I invite him to be the spokesperson of Dafeng Jewelry?”

“Like an endorsement? Shouldn’t we be looking for those saints or grandmasters instead?”

“On his own, he might not have commercial value, but what if we saw him as the number one leading talent of Taixia Country?”

“That’ll be immeasurable!”

“That’s right. He’s the vice-captain of Di Yi too. He’ll be the Captain of Di Yi when the new semester starts. In terms of power, he can be considered as the upper school management. Although it’s only for one year, it’ll be enough for the publicity!”

“You want me to go with you?”

“We have to share the risk, don’t we?”

“I’ll think about it…”

Naturally, Lin Xuan did not know that the two in charge were considering him as a spokesperson. He was currently looking through the ancient gold coins that they had sent over.

[Name: Gold Coins]

[Type: Metal]

[Rank: None]

[Description: An item of equivalent exchange from the Erica Empire.]

They did not have any special effects. They were just ancient gold coins dropped in dungeons. Of course, some ancient gold coins had special effects, but those that were weren’t sent over.

However, what Lin Xuan needed were these ordinary ancient gold coins.

Just as he was about to go out for breakfast, the doorbell rang. If he was not mistaken, someone had come to deliver breakfast.

Sure enough, the two sisters were standing at the door! They were each carrying a large bag, which was obviously bought for him.

“The two famous sisters are here? Aren’t you worried that I’ll do something?”

Lin Xuan joked with the two.

“Hehe, it doesn’t matter to us. It’s only if you dare to make a move!”

Lin Zhenxing raised her little fist to show off to Lin Xuan, his face crumpled as she spoke viciously.

“O-of course not. What’s up?”

Initially, he wanted to say a few more words, but he suddenly remembered that this was the Imperial City, not the West Capital. After all, the principal was someone that he could not match with his current strength. It was better to keep a low profile and not talk crap.

“It’s an invitation to the Royal Court on June twenty-fourth. I’m here to remind you of the date. It’s mainly about ancient gold coins. Grandpa had plundered all the ancient gold coins in the capital and the surrounding areas to prepare for us.”

Lin Zhenyue took small bites of the bun and occasionally took a sip of milk. She was elegant and knew her stuff as she explained the purpose of their visit in a low voice.

“No wonder I couldn’t find any ancient gold coins yesterday. So what’s going to happen now?”

“Didn’t my sister find a second familiar? She doesn’t need the ancient gold coins anymore. I can give her share to you.”

Lin Zhenxing gulped down a big bun in three mouthfuls.

“Two jewelry shops just sent me some ancient gold coins. This should be enough, right?”

Lin Xuan ate a big meat bun in one bite. The bun in his mouth did not affect his speech, so he swallowed it down with a gulp.

“How much did you get? Forget it. The more ancient gold coins you have, the better. You have no idea how greedy the people can be!”

Lin Zhenyue shook her head. At first, she wanted to see how many gold coins there were. However, after thinking for a while, she gave up. Gold coins were worthless in Taixia Country. They only had great value in a few instance dungeons. As for the dragon clan, many of them were very fond of gold coins.

She took out a large pile of gold coins, and Lin Xuan was instantly stunned. The two major Jeweler managers’ had also brought out a lot of gold coins, around two to three hundred. Compared to Lin Zhenyue, she had just taken out tens of thousands of ancient gold coins. As expected of the principal of Di Yi, his actions were extraordinary when it came to these two.

“You can take it, I don’t need it anyway!”

“Alright, if you insist.”

Lin Xuan did not say much. He accepted the pile of gold coins without hesitation. It did not matter to him. After all, Lin Zhenyue still had to enter another instance dungeon soon. If she had any other ideas, she could ask Lin Xuan for help. It would not be a problem.

The breakfast that the two sisters brought was completely wiped out. Lin Xuan touched his stomach which was only a quarter full and fell into deep thought. It seemed like he had to eat something high in energy!

Normal food could hardly fill Lin Xuan’s stomach nowadays!
