1503 Muyue’s Scheme (1/2)

The Northern Wilderness Chamber of Commerce monopolised trade in the starfield, and every transaction had to be intermediated by the chamber.

Right now, the Northern Wilderness Chamber of Commerce had forbidden any business transactions with Chen Xiaobei.

That basically meant that Chen Xiaobei could not purchase any of the items on the list from the Northern Wilderness Starfield.

Of course, he could go to another starfield to acquire them, but he was not familiar with the people and the place, and did not have any business connections like he did in the Northern Wilderness Starfield.

If he wanted to get the items on the list, Chen Xiaobei could need to make trips to several places, and spend a lot of Spiritual Stones. He might also encounter unknown dangers in the process, and that would waste a lot of time.

And time was the most important factor here!

The Northern Wilderness Overlord had only given him one month to complete the task. If he took more time than he was allowed, everything he had done up to this point would be completely wasted, and he would not be able get the Golden Purple Echeveria Lola to cure Wenren Muyue!

Chen Xiaobei could never accept such an outcome.

If he forced Tie Feihu to buy them for him, he would risk getting found out by the Northern Wilderness Starfield. Should that happen, he would then lose everything.

This could cause the mission to fail.

Chen Xiaobei could not afford to take this risk!

”Do you any other ideas? I need to get everything on the list within 20 days!” Chen Xiaobei asked.

Tie Feihu drew in a breath of cold air, and like a mouse before a tiger, he stammered, ”N… No… It's not possible to get to the other Starfields to buy everything in 20 days! Our Tie Family is monitoring the sales in the Northern Wilderness Starfield, so you won't be able to buy anything!”

”Can't I just do it without the knowledge of your family?” Chen Xiaobei frowned. This did not look good for him.

”Our family is in control of the business, that's a known fact. There are so many things on your list. You can't possibly get them all without the Northern Wilderness Chamber of Commerce' network.”

Tie Feihu made it sound like it was final nail in the coffin.

”F*ck! Then my plan's completely ruined! I need to go to the other Starfields!” Chen Xiaobei frowned.

Chen Xiaobei's initial plan was to give the list to Gu Congwen to complete, so that he could use this time to cultivate.

When Shen Gongpao and the others were done with their training, Chen Xiaobei had to organize the King of Glory competition, and a Red Envelope Snatching Session would be waiting for him after that.

Also, if there was news from Li Xiang, Chen Xiaobei would need to get to Emperor Qin's tomb to collect his treasures.

If things went according to plan, then it would have been perfect.

But right now, with the Tie Family pulling the carpet under him, Chen Xiaobei's flawless plan was completely ruined.

Chen Xiaobei would be forced to forgo cultivating, forgo the competition, and forgo searching for Emperor Qin's tomb. All his time and energy would be spent in other Starfields.

Even then, Chen Xiaobei had no guarantee that he would be able to acquire everything within the given time period.
