Chapter 136: Effortless Acquisition (4)

The raw stones did not yield any green crystal stones, but there was news from the Mercenary Guild; Ling Feng had spent 200,000 gold coins just to purchase those two green crystal stones.

Looking at the mere five green crystal stones in his hand, he was nearly driven mad with frustration, pacing back and forth in the room anxiously.

After spending all that manpower and resources, there were only five… Pharmacist Leng required fifty! How could this be enough? It wasn't even a fraction of the requirement.

Su Luo watched Ling Feng, who was on the verge of a breakdown. She clenched her fists, wanting to step forward, but ultimately stopped in her tracks.

Looking at the pile of debris on the floor, she deeply understood the value those crystal stones represented. Although there were only a few, they were worth as much as a mountain of gold and silver.

However, how could she bring out the crystal stones while cleanly distancing herself from them? This was a difficult problem.

A flash of inspiration suddenly struck Su Luo.

Didn't Ling Feng post a mission at the Mercenary Guild? Could she place the crystal stones at the Mercenary Guild? By then, she would be able to earn a huge sum of gold coins.

But after careful consideration, it wouldn't work.

Leaving aside what might happen if the Mercenary Guild leaked her identity, she simply couldn't transport those millions of gold coins.

Although she had space, that space wasn't omnipotent. It was already very crowded inside, and it simply couldn't fit them.

Then how was she supposed to give the crystal stones to Ling Feng? Su Luo paced around the courtyard, holding Little Mengmeng, feeling somewhat troubled.

Others worried because they couldn't find crystal stones, but she was worried because she had too many.

If anyone knew, they would truly be so angry they'd vomit blood.

Su Luo thought for a while, but couldn't come up with a foolproof plan. She decided to just give up on overthinking, put the crystal stones into a cotton bag, and handed the whole lot to Ling Feng, whose eyes were red with anxiety: "Here, take this."

"What?" Ling Feng's brows furrowed, and his expression was displeased. "Why are you giving me a bag? Young Miss, I don't have time to play with you right now!"

As he spoke, Ling Feng threw the bag back, his movements rough and rude.

Gasp! He had posted a mission offering 100,000 gold coins for just one, and now he was throwing away a whole bag?

Su Luo was dumbfounded. She looked up and down, left and right, at this stubborn donkey, and asked seriously: "You really don't want it?"

"Stop messing around! If you have free time, go wander around the Mercenary Guild. You might just get lucky and buy back some green crystal stones." Ling Feng waved his hand impatiently, looking as if he wanted her to go away and stay elsewhere.

Ling Feng, oh Ling Feng, how could your master raise such an idiot like you? You don't want it when it's delivered to your door, but you insist on paying a huge fortune to buy it?

I really didn't intend to earn your Your Highness's money; it's just that you are too unappreciative. Su Luo thought to herself.

"The Mercenary Guild? Right, is the mission you posted for acquiring green crystal stones still valid? The one offering 100,000 gold coins per green crystal stone." Su Luo confirmed once more.

Only a fool wouldn't take advantage of such a bargain. Nangong Liuyun, if you want to blame someone, blame yourself for raising such a stupid subordinate.

"Naturally, it is absolutely valid! As long as you can produce green crystal stones, the equivalent amount in gold coins will be handed over with both hands." Ling Feng glanced at Su Luo with contempt. "Can you even produce one? If you can, I, Ling Feng, will be your servant and work like an ox or a horse for you from now on!"

Because he had been unable to find green crystal stones for so long, Ling Feng's usually cold personality now appeared very irritable.

Taking in a sixth-rank Ling Feng as a servant? Good idea!
