My place is on fire

Ivna has worked at Jubao Pavilion for more than five years.

During these five years, she has also accumulated some old customers.

For a place like Jubao Pavilion that buys and sells goods, it is very important to have a group of regular customers.

The more regular customers you have, the more people will sell your products to you, your turnover will be higher, and you will get more commission.

The reverse is also the same.

If no one comes to you to sell goods, you won’t receive many goods in a month, and the commission will naturally be very small.

At this moment, Ivna's monthly income is about 3 Storm Coins, which is considered a relatively high income in Storm City.

But getting a one-time commission of 70 was a considerable windfall for her!

With this money, she could even consider moving to a larger house in a better location in the city!

Here in Storm City, the housing price in the most prosperous area is only 3000 Storm Coins per square meter.

A small stone building of more than 200 square meters only costs more than 60 Storm Coins.

There are no taxes when buying a house in Storm City, and there are no unfinished buildings. You can just pay the money and get the house.

Once you pay the money, the house and the land it occupies will be yours forever, and you can do whatever you want with them.

The real estate development of Storm City has always been controlled by the City Lord's Mansion.

Houses here only have residential properties and are used to live in.

"How many sand crystals? How many sand crystals do you say?"

After hearing Ivna's report, Lei Luo stood up from his seat.

His stomach rubbed against the back of the desk and almost overturned it, but he didn't care about such trivial matters.

"49 pieces! That lady took out 49 sand crystals and wanted to exchange them for our storage bags!"

When Ivna thought back to the sand crystals that Gao Yaling put on the service desk, she couldn't help but feel excited.

She has been working at Jubao Pavilion for seven or eight years, and the amount of sand crystals she has handled in total is not as much as today!

That pile of bright sand crystals has such a strong visual impact!

"49! Quick, take them to her!"

Lei Luo's mood at this moment was not much calmer than Yvna's, and he couldn't wait to take Yvna out.

"What's going on? Even Manager Luo was alarmed?"

"It's been a while since I've seen Manager Lei personally receive someone. What's going on?"

"Look at Manager Lei's happy yet solemn expression. The other party must be a diamond-level customer or above!"

"Yivna is going to make a fortune today. I envy her so much!"

Several stall owners who bought and sold goods along the way saw Lei Luo and Yvna hurriedly passing by, and they whispered to each other and made all kinds of speculations.

Soon, Lei Luo and Yvna returned to the stall that Yvna was in charge of.

"Excuse me, ma'am. I've kept you waiting for so long. I'm Lei Luo, the manager of Jubao Pavilion. It's an honor to work with you. Thank you very much for choosing Jubao Pavilion as your partner."

Lei Luo walked up to Gao Yaling and greeted her with a pious look on his face.

Before meeting Gao Yaling, Lei Luo had all kinds of speculations about her identity. The more he speculated, the more doubts he had in his mind.

What kind of woman can take out 50 sand crystals at once?
Even the famous Gilded Brigades in Storm City would find it difficult to gather so many sand crystals!
The moment he saw Gao Yaling, the first time he saw her, Lei Luo suddenly felt a very dangerous alert in his heart!
Yes, the first time he saw Gao Yaling, he felt very dangerous, extremely dangerous!

The reason why Lei Luo could become the director of Jubao Pavilion was not only because of his business talent and the fact that he was the boss's brother-in-law, but also because of his own strong fighting ability.

The customers who come in and out of Jubao Pavilion every day are all adventurers who venture into the desert. They all live on the edge of a knife, and each one is more violent than the other.

When adventuring in the desert, two teams or two individuals may engage in a fatal fight if they disagree.

In the Death Desert, hundreds of people die every day due to various reasons. It is a veritable death desert.

However, these adventurers were all well behaved when they were in the Treasure Pavilion. No one dared to cause trouble, and no one dared to fight.

Fighting in Jubao Pavilion is definitely an act of seeking death. Jubao Pavilion has the right to kill the person, and this rule has been recognized by the Storm City Government.

In other words, it is legal and compliant for Jubao Pavilion to kill adventurers who are fighting in Jubao Pavilion!

The reason why Jubao Pavilion dares to be so tough is that in addition to its strong economic strength, its military strength is also a very important aspect.

It is said that the boss behind Jubao Pavilion is as powerful as several deputy city lords of Storm City and is an expert among experts.

Lei Luo's strength ranks among the top 10 in the entire management of Jubao Pavilion.

However, when facing Gao Yaling, he still felt a deep fear in his heart.

That kind of fear is like a weak animal seeing a powerful carnivore. It is an instinctive fear.

Lei Luo suddenly understood why Gao Yaling could get 50 sand crystals, because her strength was unfathomable!

He can kill elite sandmen alone, which definitely ranks among the top 10 in Storm City. He is definitely not someone you can afford to provoke!

Before meeting Gao Yaling, Lei Luo's heart was a little excited because she was a woman, and he even felt a little greedy.

However, after seeing Gao Yaling, he gave up the idea at first sight and broke out in a cold sweat!
"Hello, Director Lei."

Gao Yaling looked at Lei Luo and greeted him in a flat tone, but that was all.

She now felt very strange, as if she had traveled into some large virtual game.

Ivna and Lei Luo are obviously human-shaped just like him, and they look like normal humans.

But Gao Yaling couldn't treat them as her own kind, and always felt that there was some kind of gap between the two sides.

Gao Yaling couldn't explain exactly what this estrangement felt like; it was just a feeling.

In short, Gao Yaling doesn't feel any sense of immersion at the moment, so she doesn't have much interest in communicating with Ivna and Lei Luo.

"Did you bring the storage bag? I need something like that right now. This is the sand crystal I need to exchange for the storage bag."

Gao Yaling didn't waste time talking to Lei Luo and pointed at the sand crystal on the table in front of her.

"I have it! I have it! Please wait a moment..."

49 sand crystals, even a senior executive like Lei Luo has to take them seriously.

After all, this batch of materials is very valuable and no mistakes can be made.

Looking at the sand crystal on the service desk, Lei Luo sighed in his heart, this thing is really a good thing, but it's a pity that ordinary people can't get it at all.

No matter whether they are members of the Gilded Brigade galloping across the desert or those individual adventurers, only a few have the strength to kill the elite sand people.

Even if you go through a lot of trouble and pay a huge price to kill an elite sand man, it will most likely be in vain!
Because the drop rate of sand crystal is quite low, the price is so high. In fact, it is easy to understand. If the drop rate is very high, there will be a lot of sand crystals on the market, and the price will not be as high as it is now.

Elite Sandmen have strong combat power, high danger level, and low explosion rate. Few Gilded Brigades would be stupid enough to hunt them specifically.

Only when you encounter them by chance and arouse the hostility of the elite sand people, and there is no way to avoid them, will you bite the bullet and fight with them.

But there is a high probability that it will be a waste of time and nothing will be gained.

'Stay away from the Elite Sandmen, or you'll become unfortunate.'

This sentence is widely circulated among the adventurers in Storm City.

For someone like Gao Yaling to trade 50 sand crystals at once, how many elite sand people did she have to kill? It's unbelievable!
Lei Luo even had some doubts as to whether Gao Yaling had obtained this batch of sand crystals through other special channels, such as treasure hunting activities.

It was based on this idea that Lei Luo had other thoughts on his way to meet Gao Yaling.

However, after meeting Gao Yaling in person, he basically confirmed that Gao Yaling's batch of sand crystals should have been obtained by her through her own efforts to kill the sand people.

The dignified and murderous aura that Gao Yaling possesses can only be honed through long-term actual combat where one is subjected to the test of death.

Ordinary warriors definitely don't have her kind of temperament.

Even Lei Luo's own aura was far inferior to Gao Yaling's.

When judging a person, first look at his aura. This aura refers to a person's temperament.

The aura of top masters, masters and ordinary people is completely different and easy to identify.

Gao Yaling gave Lei Luo an extremely dangerous feeling, and he could sense a very strong sharpness from her!
That spirit is even stronger than the boss behind Jubao Pavilion.

"No problem, these sand crystals are intact. Here is the storage bag you need. Please inspect it."

After Lei Luo checked the 49 sand crystals and confirmed that they were all intact, a palm-sized yellow bag appeared in his hand like magic.

The small bag is like a mobile phone bag. It looks ordinary, but the space inside is about 10 cubic meters, which can hold a large number of items.

Gao Yaling looked at the emerald green ring on Lei Luo's ring finger on his right hand. If she guessed correctly, the ring should be a storage ring.

Storage rings and storage rings cannot store items of the same type in each other.

But it can store storage bags and other lower-end storage items than storage rings.

However, there is a prerequisite, that is, when the storage bag is placed in the storage ring, no items can be stored in it.

Gao Yaling reluctantly moved her eyes away from the storage ring on Lei Luo's finger and reached out to take the storage bag from his hand.

If possible, she would certainly like a storage ring.

However, it is obvious that a storage ring is much more expensive than a storage bag, and the little sand crystal I have on me is probably not enough.

You can just use the storage bag for now!
No matter what, it’s much better than carrying a conspicuous large backpack wherever you go.

The usage of the storage bag is similar to that of the storage ring. You can store and retrieve items in it with just a thought.

Under Lei Luo's careful instruction, Gao Yaling quickly mastered the technique and was able to pack her entire large backpack into it.

Then he put the storage bag into his coat pocket.

"I like this storage bag very much. Thanks. Bye."

After exchanging the storage bag, Gao Yaling waved to Ivna and Lei Luo and prepared to leave.

"Ma'am, please wait a moment!"

When Lei Luo saw Gao Yaling was about to leave, he hurriedly called her and took out a golden business card from his jacket pocket and handed it to her.

"This is my business card. Next time you come to Jubao Pavilion, you need to show my business card to the reception staff. They will provide you with the best service of our Jubao Pavilion and will notify me as soon as possible."

Lei Luo attaches great importance to Gao Yaling. There are no more than 20 customers in the entire Storm City who have received his business card.

"Okay, thank you, see you again someday."

Gao Yaling took Lei Luo's business card, put it in her pocket, turned around and walked towards the door.

Gao Yaling did not plan to stay in Storm City for a long time. She came to Jubao Pavilion today to sell sand crystals just to earn some pocket money.

The pocket money of 140 million Storm Coins was enough for her to spend for a while.

When the money is gone, it's almost time to leave.

When leaving, it would of course be more appropriate to take Sha Jing with you.

Once the Storm Coin leaves Storm City, it will probably just be a piece of waste paper.

After leaving Jubao Pavilion, Gao Yaling walked forward for about 500 meters and finally saw a building with the word "Accommodation" written on it.

This building is a two-story wooden building, which looks a bit like an ancient wooden building.

For Gao Yaling, who was used to living in luxury hotels, the conditions in this small wooden building were too poor.

But it’s much better than sleeping in the desert!
The first floor of the hotel is a dining hall for guests. There are three tables of guests eating heartily, talking loudly, laughing and cursing, making it quite lively.

"Look guys, here comes a beautiful lady!"

"Wow! What a pretty face and figure! There's such a beautiful lady in Storm City!"

"That's great! If I could hold it in my arms and love it..."

As soon as Gao Yaling entered the room, the attention of the guests who were eating at one table was instantly attracted by her, and their eyes were full of undisguised impulse.

The three of them looked at each other, as if they had reached a tacit understanding, and then stood up at the same time and surrounded Gao Yaling in the middle.

"Are you alone, pretty lady? Would you mind having a drink with me?"

"A beautiful woman is out on her own. More friends mean more paths. With three of us as friends, you can have three more paths. Make friends with us!"

"Don't be so cold, we are sincere~"

While the three uninvited guests were talking, their eyes kept wandering around Gao Yaling, like lustful ghosts.

"roll."

Gao Yaling opened her lips slightly and said only one word.

"Don't be so quick to reject us! If you get in touch with us, you will find that we are all good people."

"You are the same, what should we do if the brothers like you more?"

“Hahaha, I like this personality!”

After hearing Gao Yaling's words, the three of them not only did not retreat, but became even more excited.

Puffy!
Gao Yaling was too lazy to talk nonsense with the three people, and immediately threw three punches, one punch each, knocking the three people unconscious to the ground. (End of this chapter)
