Chapter 3057 Shocking Needs!
Chapter 3057 Shocking Needs!
Although Ah Qian and Ah Tao could no longer stay by her side and Wan Ying had lost two outstanding helpers, Ah Qian and Ah Tao becoming the managers of Fortune Treasure Palace would be of greater help to Wan Ying in the future.
Not only were there competitions between the three Palace Masters of Fortune Treasure Palace but there were also many competitions between the managers of the various cities.
Fortune Treasure Palace had sent two receptionists as his guides and Lin Yuan was very grateful to them. He took out dozens of spirit qi crystals and rewarded them to Ah Qian and Ah Tao.
The receptionists liked to receive charity from special honor guests. Once they served the special honor guests well, the rewards given by the special honor guests would sometimes be more than the commission earned as receptionists.
If it was something bestowed by someone else, Ah Tao would definitely accept it without hesitation. However, Wan Ying had repeatedly reminded Ah Tao to treat Lin Yuan well. This reception was related to her future evaluation. For a moment, Ah Tao did not know if she should take these spirit qi crystals!
Ah Qian saw Ah Tao's hesitation and took the spirit qi crystals before thanking Lin Yuan respectfully.
She also used her eyes to signal Ah Tao not to be rude. The spirit qi crystals that Lin Yuan casually took out were not meant to show off his status in front of the two of them. Lin Yuan had already taken out tens of millions of spirit qi crystals yesterday to trade. These spirit qi crystals were nothing to him. If Ah Tao was shy and refused to accept it, it would make people think that she was rejecting Lin Yuan's kind intentions.
Seeing Ah Qian accept these spirit qi crystals, Ah Tao also followed suit.
Ah Qian said softly to Lin Yuan, "Young Master Lin, there are a total of three high-end talent markets in Diverse City. Which one are you planning to go to? If you don't know the difference between these three talent markets, Ah Tao and I can introduce them to you one by one!"
When Lin Yuan had traded resources with Fortune Treasure Palace yesterday evening, he made it clear that he had never been to Diverse City before. Therefore, it was impossible for Lin Yuan to have any understanding of Diverse City's talent markets.
If it were not for the huge difference between these three top talent markets, Ah Qian would have made the decision herself.
Before Lin Yuan could say anything, Chu Ci's interest was piqued when she heard that there were three areas in the high-end talent market. She asked, "What's the difference between these three talent markets?
"The functional professions we're looking for today are more complicated, and there might be a lot of people. However, there are requirements for these people's abilities."
Ah Qian's attitude toward Chu Ci was the same as Lin Yuan's. She was exceptionally respectful.
"Miss Chu Ci, the first of these three talent markets is controlled by the officials of Diverse City. It's located southwest of the City Lord's residence. The people here are all nurtured by the officials of Diverse City. There are all kinds of people inside and they accept employment.
"A portion of the commission earned by these people needs to be handed over to the City Lord's residence. The officials of Diverse City will also be responsible for these people to ensure the interests of these employers.
"The second place is at the foot of the Dust Abyss Mountain. It's not far from here. The people here are usually from various mercenary guilds. They can take on missions as a team. Most of the people inside have extraordinary combat strength. There are relatively few lifestyle-class professionals.
"Thirdly, there's a riverside nearly 1,000 kilometers away from Diverse City. This talent market is different from the other two talent markets. The other two talent markets are mainly for hiring, but this place is completely for business. Everyone's talent is clearly priced. They can be bought by the boss they like. The abilities of these people will be clearly marked.
"The major factions all have shares in this talent market. When the major factions capture prisoners during expeditions, they will be sent here after they're tamed. Therefore, the people here are the most mixed. It's far from being as safe as Diverse Talent Market.
"Of course, there are always surprises here because some important captives won't show their true abilities. However, this rarely happens. Most of the captives on sale have hidden injuries on their roots. Because it's difficult to heal and too many resources are needed to heal them, these captives are all waiting to be chosen."
After introducing the three talent markets, Ah Qian did not say anything else and waited for Lin Yuan and Chu Ci to make a decision.
She and Ah Qian received Lin Yuan together, but Ah Qian had been doing all the talking. Not only did Ah Tao not show any dissatisfaction, but she also heaved a sigh of relief.
"Ah Tao was very clear about her position. She just had to follow Ah Qian and strive to complete this mission well. With Wan Ying's help, she could obtain a good rating.
Chu Ci did not make the decision herself. Instead, she turned to look at Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan thought, really found the right person from Fortune Treasure Palace to arrange for a guide. Among the three talent markets, the talent market located by the riverbank is more in line with my needs.
Compared to hiring these talents who lived in Diverse City, it was better to choose those capable captives to bring back to North of the Lonely River.
"Ah Qian, take us to the third talent market you mentioned. Since Fortune Treasure Palace also has some shares in this talent market, I think you can make some arrangements. Take us to choose 3,000 Spirit Craftsmen first. These Spirit Craftsmen have to be at least Class 3."
Lin Yuan directly stated his request.
The rating of a Spirit Craftsman in the Sky Beyond the Clouds was very different from the rating of a Spirit Craftsman in the main world. The beginner Class 4 Spirit Craftsmen in the main world could only be considered pinnacle Class 2 in the Sky Beyond the Clouds. Only advanced Class 4 Spirit Craftsmen could be considered beginner Class 3.
For example, Hu Quan could already be defined as a Class 6 Spirit Craftsman according to the rating of the main world. However, he was only an intermediate Class 4 Spirit Craftsman in the Sky Beyond the Clouds.
Sky City indeed had too few Spirit Craftsmen under their command. It was rather difficult for Hu Quan to command these hundred over Spirit Craftsmen to do many things.
There were many places in Sky City that needed to be built. Even if Lin Yuan found another 3,000 Spirit Craftsmen to join Sky City, these Spirit Craftsmen would not be enough.
However, it should not be difficult to find 3,000 Spirit Craftsmen above Class 3 in a talent market as big as Diverse City. If he could not even find 3,000 or more Spirit Craftsmen, Lin Yuan would be too disappointed!
Ah Qian and Ah Tao were surprised when they heard Lin Yuan's request.
Although Spirit Craftsmen were lifestyle professions, Spirit Craftsmen above Class 3 were not cheap at all.
According to the spirit qi crystals that Lin Yuan had traded yesterday, the price of each Class 3 Spirit Craftsman differed among beginner Class 3 to pinnacle Class 3, ranging from 1,000 to 30,000 spirit qi crystals. Nurturing a Spirit Craftsman also required a lot of resources. 3000 Class 3 Spirit Craftsmen would at least sell for three million spirit qi crystals.
Ah Qian and Ah Tao felt that Lin Yuan would not only choose beginner Class 3 Spirit Craftsmen.
This huge expenditure shocked receptionists like Ah Qian and Ah Tao, who were used to seeing the world in Fortune Treasure Palace.
"Young Master Lin, you will definitely be able to find 3,000 Class 3 and above Spirit Craftsmen in this talent market. In the past, even a severely injured Class 5 Spirit Craftsman had appeared. It's just that many of these captives are not tamed well. If you buy them, they might not be able to work for you wholeheartedly.
"You still need to subdue these Spirit Craftsmen yourself in the future. Some of these Spirit Craftsmen come from factions that have already been destroyed and they still feel some loyalty to those factions. It will be very difficult to tame them."
After Ah Qian's reminder to Lin Yuan, she did not say anything else.
The Fortune Treasure Palace indeed had shares, but there were very few shares.
All she could do was to give all the resources to Lin Yuan and let him choose. The other situations were not something she could determine or bear.
Ah Qian's words were both a reminder and a disclaimer.
"I only want to see if these Spirit Craftsmen can meet my requirements. I'll take responsibility for subduing these Spirit Craftsmen."
Lin Yuan still had to hire Gourmets, Weavers, and other talents, but the Spirit Craftsmen were the most important among them.
At first, Lin Yuan thought that this talent market was built so far away from Diverse City by the banks of the river because it was very chaotic.
Now, it seemed like that was not the case.
This talent market occupied an extremely wide area and had a beautiful environment. The furnishings inside were not inferior to the furnishings outside Fortune Treasure Palace.
Presumably, this talent market was most likely not tolerated by the City Lord of Diverse City.
Because many large factions in Diverse City had shares in this talent market, the City Lord could not target this talent market too much.
While communicating with Ah Qian and Ah Tao, Lin Yuan had already gained a certain level of understanding of Diverse City.
More than 50% of the profits of the City Lord's residence, excluding taxes, came from the Diverse Talent Market. This talent market by the riverside largely affected the profits of the Diverse Talent Market.
This talent market did not have a specific name. There were many people coming and going at the entrance, be it people transporting captives or trading talents.
However, most people were not qualified to be received by the attendants at the door.
These attendants did not know Lin Yuan, Chu Ci, and Winter. The three of them were unfamiliar faces to Diverse City.
However, these waiters knew Ah Qian and Ah Tao. Six or seven attendants quickly greeted them the moment they saw Ah Qian and Ah Tao.
"Your Excellencies Feng Qian and Ding Tao, I wonder what wind blew you two ladies here. Does anyone from Fortune Treasure Palace want to sell something here? If that's the case, we will contact Manager Sun and properly label the item from Fortune Treasure Palace."
Feng Qian and Ding Tao were very cautious in front of Lin Yuan.
However, Feng Qian and Ding Tao were exceptionally arrogant in front of these attendants.
"Fortune Treasure Palace doesn't do such a thing as taming and selling captives. However, we really have to trouble Manager Sun this time to get him to bring out all the high-quality Spirit Craftsmen you have. We're here to accompany the esteemed guest of Fortune Treasure Palace, Young Master Lin, to choose talents.
"If it weren't for Lordess Wan Ying needing to hold down the fort at Fortune Treasure Palace, we wouldn't be the ones bringing Young Master Lin here this time. Instead, Lordess Wan Ying would have personally brought Young Master Lin here!"
Feng Qian knew very well that her words would definitely reach Manager Sun's ears. On one hand, Feng Qian's words were meant for Manager Sun to value Lin Yuan. On the other hand, it was also to let Lin Yuan know how much Fortune Treasure Palace valued him.
The attendants were shocked when they heard Feng Qian's words. What? The Fortune Treasure Palace had actually sent two receptionists for the sake of this distinguished guest in front of them! This had never happened before! Since when did the receptionists of Fortune Treasure Palace become guides to the outside world?
The man and woman with outstanding looks in front of him looked young. The old man behind him seemed to be a guard.
The three of them must come from an extraordinary faction. Such a figure must have come to Diverse City from outside.
If they were local figures in Diverse City, they should have heard of them.
A few of the attendants immediately reported the situation to Manager Sun, while the other attendants led Lin Yuan and the others in.
Not long after entering the market, Lin Yuan saw a meatball rolling toward him from afar. Looking closely, it quickly grew into a chubby figure.
This fatso was dressed like a nouveau riche. It was as though he wished he could wear rings on all ten of his fingers.
This fatso was accompanied by the few attendants who had just left. This fatso should be Manager Sun.
Sun Youcai was quite surprised when he heard the attendants' report. He knew that an extraordinary person had arrived.
Sun Youcai had always liked to befriend such people.
Sun Youcai did not greet Feng Qian and Ding Tao first. Instead, he bowed to Lin Yuan warmly.
Regardless of whether he knew Lin Yuan or not, he immediately said, "Welcome, Young Master Lin. I heard that you've come here to choose talents. We will definitely bring out the best batch of people here! If you hadn't come here, Young Master Lin, I wouldn't have released so many talents with potential!
"Haha, these talents with potential are high-quality resources for any faction. These resources can only be used at critical moments. If not for that, Young Master Lin, it would probably be very difficult for you to obtain what you want.
"Young Master Lin, please follow me to the room and wait for a moment. I'll get someone to bring over all the talents you need! Ordinary talents are all available for people to choose from. If you go to the exhibition area, you won't be able to see those high-quality guys."
Lin Yuan raised his eyebrows. This Manager Sun really knew how to suck up to others. Lin Yuan could sense that Manager Sun was trying to please him.
Manager Sun did not hide his thoughts. Instead, he openly expressed them.
Not only would Lin Yuan not be dissatisfied with this behavior, but he also liked Manager Sun's directness.
"Since that's the case, I'll have to trouble you to arrange it! However, I think you're wrong about one thing. Those high-end talents indeed need to be sold carefully. However, these high-end talents are expensive. Only those buyers who can afford the price can support them."
