Chapter 89: Making Quick Money (Part 1)

Entering the assassin hall, Wang Sheng went straight to the corner where he registered last time, and it was still the same elder sister handling the registration.

Early in the morning, there were not many people. Wang Sheng greeted the elder sister with a smile and sat directly opposite her.

"Your assassincard." The elder sister always greeted Wang Sheng with a smile, and this time was no exception. As soon as he sat down, she gave Wang Sheng a silver-white assassincard.

Familiar patterns, familiar styles, except for the two seal characters on the back that were different, everything else was exactly the same.

"These two characters are lone wolf, the code name you used." The elder sister saw Wang Sheng looking at the two seal characters and pointed out, "Everyone's card has their own code name on it."

"What if the names are repeated?" Wang Sheng suddenly thought of a very ridiculous idea and subconsciously asked.

"If it's repeated, it's repeated. What else can we do?" The elder sister explained with a smile, "Anyway, the Yuan Hun imprint is different. We don't distinguish people by names."

After speaking, the elder sister gave Wang Sheng a needle, indicating that Wang Sheng should prick his finger and drip blood onto the assassincard. Wang Sheng understood that this must be the dripping blood to leave a Yuan Hun imprint that was mentioned before. He casually pricked his finger and dripped a drop of blood on thecard.

The elder sister moved quickly, immediately placing the blood-dripped assassincard on a complex pattern on the table. In just a moment, the blood on the assassincard seemed to be absorbed by thecard, disappearing without a trace.

"This is the formation for detecting Yuan Hun imprint." Wang Sheng's gaze lingered on the complex pattern, and the elder sister explained to him with a smile. Knowing that Wang Sheng was a newcomer, she was patient.

"Alright?" Wang Sheng looked at the clean assassincard and asked.

"There's still one last step." The elder sister happily took the assassincard back from Wang Sheng and started registering: "Then add the tasks you've completed in the past two days, and it'll all be done."

"The tasks of the past two days?" Wang Sheng was stunned. What tasks had he completed in the past two days? It seemed like there hadn't been any!

" Ling Ba and the others also had bounties on their heads." The elder sister looked at Wang Sheng's confused expression and explained with a smile: "In addition, those you killed at your door were all famous figures on thelist, all killed by you. Although you didn't go through the procedures for accepting tasks before you took action, it doesn't matter. As long as you bring their heads here, you can register. Of course, this time those are not necessary, everyone knows whotook their heads."

Killing Ling Ba and the others had such benefits? Wang Sheng had not expected it. However, the gift that the old eunuch gave him was also counted on his head, which Wang Sheng felt a little undeserving.

However, Wang Sheng would not refuse such a good thing. Originally, the deaths of those people had already been placed on Wang Sheng's head, and the old eunuch would not covet the small profits of killing a few small guys.

In addition to assassin points, there were also bounties. To Wang Sheng's surprise, Ling Ba and the dozen or so of them, plus the four or five heads at the door, added up to three or four thousand gold coins.

Killing people was indeed extremely profitable. You know, a gold coin outside is the income of most ordinary people for two or three months or even longer, but killing a dozen people brings so much income. Assassins really earn a lot.

But for the time being, Wang Sheng would not make a living by killing people. Having finally escaped the worries and fears in the Thousand Despair Land, and having finally gained a foothold in Worry-Free City, the first thing Wang Sheng wanted to do was to cultivate in peace. Strive to devour the mountain in the Yuan Hun space in a short time and enter the second level of the Taotie Transformation.

"Can I post a long-term task?" Not wanting to trouble two people with one thing, Wang Sheng also wanted to post a task here and directly consulted the elder sister.

"Absolutely no problem." The elder sister personally took Wang Sheng to the second floor, to the place where tasks were handled, and stood beside him, providing very attentive service.

"I want to post a long-term task." Wang Sheng said to the clerk inside, and handed over the assassincard at the elder sister's suggestion: "Hang it up for a month first, purchasing complete carcasses of demon beast of various realms. Buy and sell at 90% of the market price here, is that okay?"

Of course, where is there any reason why it wouldn't be okay?

Buying things in Worry-Free City is ten times more expensive than outside. Even if someone hunts a demon beast, they either spend time selling it themselves, or sell it to the assassin hall and get randomly deducted by appraisers, or sell it to Yu Bao Zhai and Bao Qing Yu Tang, whose merchant skills are ten times stronger than the assassin hall's appraisers. Apart from selling it themselves, few people can sell it for half the market price.

Wang Sheng offered 90% of the market price, and many people would be happy to send their prey to Wang Sheng. Especially since this business was listed in the assassin hall, with the assassin hall's guarantee, there was no need to worry about not receiving money.

Including the elder sister, no one understood what Wang Sheng wanted to do. It seemed that Wang Sheng wanted a stable source of demon beast meat to run his small butcher shop. But would a level 5 assassin really only run a small butcher shop?

Amid everyone's confusion, Wang Sheng listed this task. Then, he went to Bao Qing Yu Tang and Yu Bao Zhai to ask for a price list of various demon beast meats, and then directly returned to his small courtyard, opened the street-facing shop, and sat behind it waiting for business.

After a while, there was no business. Wang Sheng sat for a while and probably felt uncomfortable. Then, under everyone's puzzled gaze, he went out and entered a carpenter shop, commissioned something, and returned to his shop.

The carpenter shop immediately became a popular place. At least dozens of people went in and out, buying things and inquiring about what Wang Sheng was commissioning.

Every time someone asked, the honest-looking carpenter's face would have another bitter smile. But he didn't hide it, and directly told everyone that Wang Sheng had commissioned a piece of furniture here. When he finished it and sent it over, if others wanted it, he could also make an identical one and send it over.

As a result, in just half a day, dozens of the same style of furniture as Wang Sheng's commissioned one were sold without even seeing a ghost, just a little short of a hundred.

The carpenter worked quickly. That afternoon, the carpenter brought a finished piece of furniture and five hundred gold coins to Wang Sheng's shop.

"This is the chair you wanted." The carpenter's expression at this time can be said to be quitedepressed. He held the bag containing the gold coins with both hands and sent it to Wang Sheng: "This is the gold coin for buying your chair."

The carpenter couldn't help but bedepressed. Wang Sheng entered his shop and wanted to commission a chair, and he made a bet with him that this chair could sell more than fifty pieces, and ten gold coins each. If it exceeded, he would pay Wang Sheng five hundred gold coins, and if it didn't exceed, Wang Sheng would pay him five hundred gold coins. Now he was sending the gold coins.
