Strategists Reincarnation Death Match 54 End of the Great Auction

(WSG) "Father? You mean to say that Meng Wu is your actual father?" Wu San Gui said with a hint of fear in his voice.

(MW) "Yea, scared now?" Meng Wu said with a sly smile.

(WSG) "Humph, what is there to be afraid of? You are just the leader of some lesser faction."

(MW) "While that may be true, you should know that I don't particularly agree with you disciplining this boy. Hitting him may not harm him in any way, but the disgrace he has to face afterwards is something that is very shameful. I won't stand down just because you are from Vesper."

(WSG) "What does this boy have to do with you?"

(MW) "This matter doesn't concern you, well, not yet at least."

(WSG) "Curses. Why is my luck so bad."

(MW) "What will it be, Wu San Gui? I doubt you can risk elevating this matter any higher than it already has gotten. Don't you think?"

(WSG) "Since it is you, I suppose I could make an exception. Let's go." Wu San Gui turned to leave from an embarrassing predicament.

(GS) "But..."

(WSG) "Shut it Gou Shi, I still need to talk to you after this is all over." He said with an ice cold temperament. Gou Shi could only nod in response.

(BM) "Thanks for your help elder Meng Wu."

(MW) "I'm only ranked 88 in the elder rankings I can barely be considered an elder. Hahaha."

(BM) "Right, well, your help in deescalating the matter is much appreciated."

(MW) "How can I refuse what elder Guan Yu, and elder Yue Fei propose? I mean, an alliance with the Forever Pirates and the Men of Meng will be the stuff of legends."

(MY) "This is why you came?" Meng Yi asked.

(MW) "That is the reason my son. Where is your brother by the way? I heard he was also involved with the Vesper gang just yesterday."

(BM) "Your eldest son is just in another location trying to try and find a few decent blueprints that we can use."

(MW) "Is that so? Well, I got your message loud and clear. I'd be pretty impressed if you actually managed to get the Forever Pirated to agree to something so against their beliefs."

(BM) "Not to worry, I believe we will be getting our response soon. Are you busy at the moment elder Meng Wu?"

(MW) "Not terribly so, why?"

(BM) "I was just wondering if you could help us in our blueprint sales."

(MW) "Oh? In what way are you talking about?"

(BM) "This won't take very long. Just a little announcement to the crowd that is gathered here just staring at us."

(MW) "Hoo, you are quite bold to ask for a favor like that when we met just moments earlier. I like that you have quite the guts."

(BM) "Would you like to take a blueprint as compensation? How about this Mark 1 tank?"

(MW) "I actually was in the market looking for a tank. Finding one is incredibly tough. Most of my top brass has been trying to get one for a century now, but so far no dice. This will be a nice present for their loyalty towards me. Alright I'll do it." He said as he took the blueprint from Baron's hands.

(BM) "Excellent, then I'll be counting on you then."

(MW) "ALL RIGHT EVERYONE, LISTEN UP. This stall here is hereby under protection of the full might of the M.O.M faction. So have no fear when you shop here. Looking for a tank? repeating crossbow? flamethrower? These guys have got quite a bit of good stuff, please check it out. Also, today only, get 15% off all items from this stall. Hehe." Meng Wu finished with a chuckle, and immediately left while Baron and Meng Yi were still digesting what he had just said. "Treat my boys well, Baron. See you later Meng Yi."

(BM) "Your father is quite mischievous. How is he running a large scale faction?"

(MY) "He has his moments, but yea. He is a bit childish at times." Just as Meng Yi finished, there were dozens upon dozens of customers coming to their stall.

The next few hours the rumor of Meng Wu and Baron spread like wildfire. More and more customers showed up and the two were just non stop serving customers. Eventually, Guan Yu who was also at location two heard the rumor and came back as fast as he could. Once he did, he immediately began helping Baron and Meng Yi out. That day was phenomenal in terms of their sales. They had nearly tripled their earnings from both of their previous days combined.

The moment that the event officially closed for the day was when the three of them sighed a big sigh of relief. Though their bodies did not tire from the work, their minds were drained from all the excessive workload. Meng Tian and the others were surprised to say the least once they saw how much money they had managed to obtain in a single day.

(MT) "How did you guys manage to sell so much in one day? Does it have something to do with my father showing up?"

(BM) "Yes, actually. He did help us a bit by advertising us. He even announced that we were giving a discount of 15% today without even consulting us."

(MT) "That sounds like him, childish at times. Did he say anything about me or my brother?"

(BM) "He told me to treat you two well. That's about it."

(MT) "Humph, seems like he is still the same as before."

(BM) "Oh don't be like that. I'm sure he cares about you despite being like this. He doesn't seem too bad a person."

(MT) "Forget it. I'm going to do a bit more training before the event starts for tomorrow. Come on Meng Yi." He said as the two of them made for the exit.

(BM) "Those three sure have an interesting relationship. Anyway, good job today all. I feel like I haven't given you guys enough benefits lately. So I believe that everyone should take 2,000 silver coins and add it to their personal pouches. I'll tell the two that just left tomorrow."

(XD) "Wow, 2,000? You sure are being generous. I haven't been given this much in one go, ever. I'm not sure I can accept this."

(BM) "I know you guys don't follow me just because of making money, but you should also know that I just wouldn't feel right not paying you guys anything after all the effort you guys have put in to help me realize my dream."

(GY) "What are you talking about Baron? We are brothers aren't we? I have never met anyone quite as worldly as you are. Not even the ones within the Chinese community that have made multiple trips to the other communities." Guan Yu said with conviction.

(YF) "Same with me. I would have never learned so much from anyone else. In fact I think I have benefited more from being around you than vice versa." Yue Fei said smilingly.

(BC) "How can I disagree with the two elders? You have been an exceptional learning experience plus some tactics that I have never seen from any other person here." Ban Chao agreed with the others.

(HX) "You have reignited my passion for battle, my boy. I haven't really been going at it with all my might these past millennia. Truly you have a knack for persuasion unlike any person I have ever met before."

(XD) "Uh yea, what they said. Plus, the friendships I've had with you guys really makes me wonder why I preferred to be solo for so long."

(BM) "Oh stop being so sentimental and take your fair share of the money. If all goes well tomorrow I will distribute tomorrow."

(YF) "Wait, I think they are adding a new portion of the event to it this year."

(GY) "Oh? Are you talking about the Heavenly Auction or whatever they are calling it?"

(YF) "Yes, the first half day tomorrow will be what we have been doing these past 3 days, but the second half of the day will be different for everyone involved."

(GY) "I've only heard that they plan on inviting everyone to participate in an auction that will sell some of the blueprints from the Sun Coalition's personal private treasury."

(HX) "No way? The number one faction will be personally selling some of their hard earned blueprints? This is certainly news."

(BM) "It's a good thing we have made so much money these past few days. I've been itching to find a superior blueprint which will undoubtedly increase our strength considerably."
