Chapter 1349: Chapter 651: Bear the Consequences Yourself! Chapter 1349: Chapter 651: Bear the Consequences Yourself! “Is this Fire-Affinity Disaster-Level Ghost-Beast the one you two want to buy at a fixed price?” he asked.
“The exhibit has already been reserved. You can look at other exhibits, but I need to check beforehand if you have enough World Coins.”
Originally, Yu Yi had his suspicions, especially when he saw that the two trying to buy the Heaven Calamity Ghost Series Beast he had reserved were two young adults.
Yu Yi's suspicions were further confirmed, which made his tone much less cautious than before.
Otherwise, Yu Yi would never have mentioned the reserved exhibit, nor would he have checked whether Fang Mu and Wang Longfei had enough World Coins.
Strictly speaking, as the head of the Beast Collection Merchants' Association, Yu Yi had no right to do this to Fang Mu and Wang Longfei, who were customers of the association.
The Attendant's expression turned extremely ugly upon hearing Yu Yi's words.
The Attendant didn't doubt Fang Mu and Wang Longfei's buying power because Wang Longfei had shown him a light-golden badge.
The powers that could purchase land and shops within Sacred City were not inferior to the Beast Collection Merchants' Association.
However, the Attendant didn't remind Yu Yi of this situation; he harbored a covert resentment towards Yu Yi.
If it weren't for Yu Yi's interference, even though the exhibit had already been sold at a fixed price, he would definitely have earned that commission.
Yu Yi had essentially cut off the Attendant's source of income!
The Attendant dearly hoped that Fang Mu and Wang Longfei would show some spine and teach Yu Yi a lesson.
Wang Longfei glared at Yu Yi, the newly arrived head, and said chillingly,
“It's the first time I hear of a merchant guild checking a guest's wallet before doing business.”
“You claim that the Beast Collection Merchants' Association is a renowned super-scale guild that operates across federations, besides yourself as the head, there must be Elders present from your headquarters, right?”
“Call out your headquarters' Elders. I want to see if your Beast Collection Merchants' Association has such a rule for doing business!”
“If that's how the Beast Collection Merchants' Association conducts business, you might as well close shop earlier!”
Wang Longfei's words were quite rude; it's unbearable for any power to hear such things about closing shop when they have just begun operations.
Opening up for business is always considered to seek good fortune, and mentioning closing is seen as a taboo.
Wang Longfei, if treated this way personally at the Beast Collection Merchants' Association, would be dissatisfied but wouldn't tear his face with the association outright.
Wang Longfei was acting this way partly because Fang Mu had come upon his suggestion.
Fang Mu had visited the Beast Collection Merchants' Association at his invitation, and he could not allow Fang Mu to be insulted.
If he didn't speak out while Fang Mu was being humiliated, how could he ever become friends with Fang Mu in the future?
Wang Longfei was reluctant to provoke the Beast Collection Merchants' Association, as its influence was no lesser than that of his own Wang Family.
Offending the Beast Collection Merchants' Association held no benefits for the Wang Family.
His grandfather, facing the Beast Collection Merchants' Association situated in the Beast Language Federation, was not in a position to defend him.
A conflict between the two parties could even affect the relations between the Dragon Rising Federation and the Beast Language Federation.
But now, with Fang Mu here, Fang Mu, as a disciple of a Saint Creator, was unafraid of conflict with any power.
If the Beast Collection Merchants' Association knew that their person in charge had offended Fang Mu, the disciple of a Saint Creator, they would probably do everything to apologize to Fang Mu, and the Beast Language Federation would react similarly.
Wang Longfei's current actions, rather than looking for trouble, could be said to be protecting the Beast Collection Merchants' Association.
Wang Longfei's loud words drew the attention of many guests around, letting them vaguely understand what was happening.
The young man's words were indeed harsh, leaving no room for the Beast Collection Merchants' Association, but his actions were not without justification.
Regardless of the Beast Collection Merchants' Association's background, at the end of the day, it was just a store serving Beast Masters.
Everyone present was a consumer; since when does a store investigate the wallets of its customers?
The actions of the Beast Collection Merchants' Association amounted to disdain for all consumers.
Wang Longfei, when speaking, had anticipated such a situation; he was never someone who acted without thinking.
Wang Longfei wanted it this way!
Because it was the only way to bring out the Elders in charge from the Beast Collection Merchants' Association and get an explanation from them.
Yu Yi had hoped that his words would scare off the young Fang Mu and Wang Longfei, but he had not expected Wang Longfei to be so troublesome!
The conversation had sparked quite a controversy.
Yu Yi's action of reserving an exhibit without receiving payment was human but not rule-abiding.
Even within the seven heads of the Beast Collection Merchants' Association, it was a form of overly egregious competition and was indefensible!
If this issue were to escalate and spread further, it would certainly cause very adverse effects on him, which was not what Yu Yi wanted to see.
“Is an Elder of our Beast Collection Merchants' Association someone you can meet whenever you want!?”
“You two come looking for trouble with our Beast Collection Merchants' Association on the first day of its opening in the second world; which merchant guild are you from?!”
