After they finished moving everything, only three people were left at the scene. Seeing the way Guo Siyu was looking at him, as if he were a monster, Zhao Yan felt somewhat awkward. She had initially wanted to bring these two together, but what kind of immortal behavior was this little brother displaying? “Take it off,” Zhao Yan said sternly, adopting the posture of an elder sister lecturing her younger brother. Zhao Guang indeed got a huge fright, as he had been disciplined quite a bit ever since he was a child. However, Zhao Guang soon realized something. His sister couldn’t beat him, and besides, he was the boss. “No way, absolutely not,” Zhao Guang shook his head, prompting Zhao Yan to feel like smacking him. But then Zhao Yan noticed that bothersome helmet, blocking her view. Normally, she could easily reach out and grab her brother’s ear, but now it was invulnerable. Oh great, did you come here specifically to guard against me? Anti-big-sister armor? “Ahem.” Guo Siyu, standing nearby and witnessing the impending sibling showdown, could only cough to remind them of his presence. Hearing this, Guo Siyu stopped as well. “You go back first, I’ll come over later with someone to check the accounts,” he said. Guo Siyu’s lips twitched slightly, then he said, “Okay, I’ll head over later. But there’s one more thing. That amber you mentioned last time, can you get a large amount of it?” “Amber, huh? That shouldn’t be a problem, but why do you need it again?” “Previously, we weren’t involved in this line of business, so it wasn’t necessary. But now that our scale has grown, we can focus on this category, though your prices must be lower.” “That won’t be a problem.” Zhao Guang gave his sister a look, signaling her to check the prices. However, hidden behind the helmet, how could Zhao Yan see Zhao Guang giving her any cues? “Also, while we still need gold, we need more jade,” Guo Siyu added. “Jade? Is the market really good for that right now?” Zhao Guang was somewhat confused. Guo Siyu knew that this guy didn’t understand the industry very well but didn’t mind. “Indeed, the market is good. In fact, high-quality jade of good appearance simply isn’t available on the market now; the supply is too limited.” “Really? I thought there seemed to be quite a bit of it around.” “Those are just some stone skins and scrap pieces, nothing high in price. In the jade business now, the good stuff doesn’t lack buyers. As long as we have enough jade, opening branch stores will be very easy.” So that was the situation, Zhao Guang understood. After all, in the Otherworld, this stuff was used as a kind of building material. He didn’t even mention how much was stored, but even if jade hadn’t been valued, they could certainly mine quite a bit of it. “Leave it to me, I’ll get in touch immediately.” Having a stable channel and source of money, and thinking that even if he earned a lot, it wouldn’t cause any trouble—that was Zhao Guang’s idea. “Alright then, you two carry on, I’ll be leaving now.” After saying goodbye to the two, Guo Siyu left without looking back, leaving behind two people exchanging very awkward glances. “Take it off, did you hear me?” Now with no reservations, Zhao Yan went straight at it. “No, absolutely not, it can’t be taken off without enough time.” Zhao Guang clasped his head with both hands, facing his sister’s prowess, he simply couldn’t exert his strength nor dared to resist. Fortunately, his own armor had many clasps, and it wasn’t easy for Zhao Yan to figure out how to remove it normally. Not to mention, Zhao Guang was absolutely not cooperating at the moment. This armor really was slippery and hard to grasp. “What ‘certain time,’ wait, what’s this smell? How many days have you been wearing this? You stink.” “What stink? This is the smell of lubricant.” Zhao Guang cursed inwardly, the sealing of this armor was really too poor, the smell had leaked out. He had gotten used to it over the past few days and hardly noticed it anymore, his nose had gone numb. But for his older sister to notice it just showed how strong the odor really was. But still, there was a long time left, he really couldn’t give up his hard work. The path he had chosen, he must continue even if he had to crawl. Despite being capable, Zhao Guang didn’t want to become one of those people who, because they designed a Lifebound Battle Skill too strong, couldn’t endure it and had to give up. After all, losing a Lifebound Battle Skill could greatly impact him. Even if he didn’t go to battle, he still needed to protect his own life. After struggling for a while, Zhao Yan finally ran out of energy. “Oh, little brother has grown up, sister can’t beat you anymore.” “That’s not true, if you want to hit me, I’ll just stand still.” Zhao Yan gave Zhao Guang a fierce look, was that what she meant? Moreover, standing still, she couldn’t possibly hit him in that armor anyway. Even with a stick, it was debatable who would hurt more. “Forget it, you handle it yourself, I didn’t expect you to take up art too.” Art? What art? I’ve always been at odds with art, okay? Thinking of those in the Otherworld who dabbled in art, Zhao Guang felt a headache coming on. Wait, his performance might look very odd in the eyes of his sister, perhaps he too had become one of those weird artist types. No way, if this got out, how could he even face anyone? “I’m leaving now, you handle it yourself, but if you keep this up, mom and dad will definitely find out.” “Are you threatening me? Wait, don’t tell mom and dad, I really have a reason for doing this.” “I’ll assume you have your reasons.” His sister glared at Zhao Guang with murderous eyes. “Should I bribe you?” Zhao Guang asked cautiously, a trick that had never failed him from childhood till now. “How much?” Sure enough, hearing this Zhao Yan instinctively responded. Zhao Guang’s eyes flickered, “How about Jade? What type do you like? I’ll pick out a piece for you, and you can have it crafted into whatever you want.” The most valuable thing he had right now was this. “Forget it, that’s too valuable, I wouldn’t dare to carry it on me.” “Why worry, you’re my sister, our family has so much jade and none of us wear it, that’s absurd, you’re like a living mannequin.” After a long while, Zhao Yan nodded, “Okay, I can wear it, but the item isn’t mine, it belongs to the company.” Why does my sister have to be so fussy about these things, Zhao Guang was speechless. But having a starting point was good enough, the most important thing was, he had finally diverted attention. For the next while, it seemed he needed to avoid meeting too often, otherwise he couldn’t explain it all. Art? Really a pain.
