"Tsk tsk tsk, I didn't realize you were such a good businessman! You've even connected with one of the top merchant guilds in the Sun Moon Empire?" Yan Shaozhe sat comfortably in a mahogany chair with an antique style, a set of exquisite tea utensils beside him.
Ye Nanxiao obediently squatted on the chair in the corner, and upon hearing this, turned around and glared at Yan Shaozhe.
He was comfortably sitting in a carriage with his two beautiful wives when Yan Shaozhe shamelessly dragged him over.
Do we need someone like him, who's just trying to muddy the waters, to discuss tactics?
"Wow! This carriage even has a double level nine soul-guided protective shield! Goodness, the Aodu Chamber of Commerce is really rich and powerful!" Qian Duoduo pounced on the central controller inside the carriage, his old face pressed against the glass cover of the button, his eyes gleaming as if he had seen an unparalleled beauty.
"My God, what an exquisite soul tool! Lin'er, come and see!"
Qian Duoduo called out to Xian Lin'er, who glanced at Ye Nanxiao hesitantly before finally deciding to go and see.
Although Xianlin'er is the top student at Shrek Academy, she still needs to maintain some seniority in front of her juniors.
Ye Nanxiao consciously went to face the wall, and also turned on the silencing bead, pretending that he knew nothing and could not see anything.
"Lin'er, look! The layout of this core magic array is a bit different from what we've seen before. It's arranged in groups of modules, which greatly reduces the reaction time. But how much does one of these cost? Can it be disassembled?"
"Dodo! Take it easy! This carriage looks expensive! Ask the price first before you make a move!"
Although Ye Nanxiao couldn't hear the sounds outside, Yan Shaozhe squeezed in through the small soundproof barrier.
He pointed at Qian Duoduo and Xian Lin'er, who were huddled together studying, and said helplessly, "Now you know why I insisted on dragging you onto the bus, right? If it were just me here, the roof would probably be the seat, there wouldn't be any room for me inside!"
Ye Nanxiao rolled his eyes at Yan Shaozhe. This guy's real purpose was to drag him over to share the firepower.
One is a rival and best friend, the other is a teammate and ex-girlfriend?
I'm afraid I can't escape the fox even if I want to.
"Old Yan, I didn't expect you to be such a jerk?" Ye Nanxiao pulled out a cup of milk tea and tossed it to Yan Shaozhe.
Yan Shaozhe skillfully picked up a straw, poked it open, and took a big gulp. "You brat, you actually have the right to judge me? Don't you have your own share of unwanted suitors? Want me to count them for you?"
"The current Empress of Xingluo, the granddaughter of Jing Hongchen? And Ling Luochen, one of the previous Seven Eccentrics of the Inner Academy?"
"There are three here, but there must be others I don't know about!"
Ye Nanxiao continued to roll his eyes. With his skill level, lying to Yan Shaozhe was no longer an option.
Even if I succeed, that old bastard won't believe it.
Seeing Ye Nanxiao's reaction, Yan Shaozhe smiled smugly, "I knew it! You little rascal!"
"Even if you have a lot of admirers, you wouldn't dare make Xiao Tao angry, hehe, you're a henpecked husband!"
Perhaps to avoid the awkwardness of traveling with Qian Duoduo and Xian Lin'er, Yan Shaozhe kept pulling Ye Nanxiao aside to chat about all sorts of things, from petty bourgeois gossip to astronomy and geography, before returning to gossip.
To avoid embarrassment, Yan Shaozhe completely abandoned his image as a refined gentleman.
Let's get through this travel time first, then we can consider other things.
In any case, Yan Shaozhe felt that he had no image in Ye Nanxiao's eyes, just as Ye Nanxiao had no image in his eyes.
The carriage in Aodu traveled very smoothly, almost as smoothly as when he usually sat in the sect.
To alleviate the boredom of the journey, Ye Nanxiao specially asked Li Yuanren to add many entertainment elements when building the carriage.
"Beibei! I can't lend you this riddle! What do you mean by 'you can't see it when you need it, but you can see it everywhere when you don't need it'?" Xu Sanshi said in frustration, looking at the riddle in his hand.
Beibei looked up at Xu Sanshi, said "I don't know," and continued playing the game of dismantling the metal rings in front of her.
Like Qian Duoduo and his companion, He Caitou and Huo Yuhao crouched down in various parts of the carriage, observing how the core array of the central control system inside the carriage was set up.
If they had known it belonged to Ye Nanxiao, they might have taken it apart themselves.
The carriage procession slowly made its way out of Yaoyue City. At the city gate, the group saw many carriages still parked in place.
All of these carriages had the words "Aodu Travel Service" prominently displayed on them.
"Huh? Why can that caravan leave the city directly?" A member of a sect who had rented a carriage asked, pointing to the Shrek Academy caravan that was already far from the city gate. Many of them needed to fill out carriage travel forms at the city gate.
The soldiers guarding the city glanced at the departing carriage procession and said, "That convoy consists of VIPs. They only need to say a word, and dedicated staff will help them fill out and submit the forms."
"You have this kind of service? Why don't we have it?" the sect that had raised the question earlier asked.
Mentioning service, the accompanying Aodu service staff immediately jumped out, holding a flyer in their hand, and said, "This guest, there are many ways to upgrade to VIP service. Would you like to choose VIP travel, VIP service, VIP carriage upgrade, or VIP car purchase?"
"Why are there so many VIPs?"
"No! Why is the price different for each VIP membership? Does buying one membership only grant access to one type of service?"
"Dear customer, we offer these differentiated services to better provide you with accurate and effective service. As the old saying goes, the devil is in the details, and we are doing this to better serve our guests!"
"You guys aren't just former robbers, are you? And you even have special meals and VIP treatments on the bus?"
"Dear customer, we are a royal merchant, and every service has a clearly stated price! Unlike those carriage companies that have vague service standards and overcharge, we value integrity above all else!"
"Dear customer, if you find our divisions too detailed and overwhelming, we also have a VIP section that integrates all services!"
"Wait, were you guys really not bandits in your previous profession?"
After leaving Yaoyue City, the carriage made a sharp turn and headed towards the outskirts of the city.
Everyone became alert.
Just as Yan Shaozhe was about to ask a question, he suddenly saw an unusually wide black road on the outskirts of the city.
"Please be seated and hold on tight, everyone. The carriage is about to enter the highway leading to Mingdu. The speed will increase and the protective shield will be activated. Please fasten your seat belts."
A mechanical voice rang out from the loudspeaker of each carriage.
To everyone's surprise, the broadcast quickly switched to Ye Nanxiao's voice, and at the same time, a screen descended inside the carriage.
The latest novel is first published here!
"You can all see that, right? Everyone back in your seats. See this black strap? That's called a seatbelt. Sit tight and buckle up. The carriage won't be slower than our flight speed. If you crash, I won't feel sorry for you; you'll be the one worrying about how much money you'll have to pay for the damaged carriage!"
Upon hearing Ye Nanxiao's words, laughter immediately erupted from several carriages.
As expected of Ye Nanxiao, everyone quickly walked to the front room, sat down, and fastened their seatbelts.
Before Ye Nanxiao became the devilish instructor, he was a very popular senior student.
After everyone had fastened their seatbelts, Ye Nanxiao said into the intercom in the room, "Check everything, and we'll set off once everything is ready."
"Yes, esteemed guest, your instructions received. Aodu Travel, proceed at full speed."
A mechanical sound rang out, and the front of the carriage began to transform, becoming a technologically advanced front that closed off the driver's seat to block out the wind speed from the high-speed travel.
Rows of energy nozzles extended from the rear of the carriage, and the sides of the carriage unfolded to reveal two rows of large-diameter energy nozzles that could move freely. A tail wing rose from the top of the carriage, and a layer of reinforced insulating glass descended outside the windows.
The carriages that were originally traveling side by side began to space out and line up in an orderly fashion.
The team members on the carriage could see the transformed carriage through the windows.
"So cool!"
"Is this carriage really a carriage? It doesn't even need a spirit beast to pull it!"
Does Aodu Travel offer personalized service?
After creating enough distance, the lead carriage activated its acceleration mode, with energy nozzles bursting forth with azure flames that gradually lengthened, propelling the carriage forward at high speed.
On the wide highway, streaks of light pierced the air and flashed by.
"My goodness! What's the deal with this carriage trading company? Level 9 propulsion jets and energy nozzles? How many Level 9 flying soul guides could you make from this stuff??" Qian Duoduo gripped the seatbelt tightly with both hands, staring blankly at the projection on the screen.
With the same acceleration, he could clearly see the second carriage following behind, whose energy nozzles, spewing flames, were so magnificent and moving in his eyes.
"Old Qian, how about ordering a high-speed carriage from the Aodu Chamber of Commerce? Mention my name and you can get a 30% discount!" Ye Nanxiao said with a sly smile.
Upon hearing Ye Nanxiao's voice, Qian Duoduo, who was still enjoying the high-speed carriage ride, immediately became alert.
Beware of Ye Huli's scams; this is already Qian Duoduo's instinctive reaction.
"Tell me first, how much does this carriage cost, and how much kickback can you get?" Qian Duoduo asked cautiously.
"Nanxiao, how much does this carriage cost?" Xianlin'er asked, sensing that this carriage would change the current state of land travel.
"No problem, no problem. The cost of a top-of-the-line high-speed carriage is equivalent to that of a level nine soul tool, but we'll give you a discount. It's one million gold soul coins per carriage." Ye Nanxiao instantly pulled out an abacus and started calculating rapidly.
"Die! You little brat, you're trying to cheat me again!" Qian Duoduo glared at Ye Nanxiao.
"I can consider it. Do you have any information? Could you give me a copy?" Xianlin'er asked.
Ye Nanxiao lowered his head slightly and took out a guidebook on high-speed carriages from the drawer in front of his seat.
As the group talked, they passed a fork in the road, where several identical high-speed carriages appeared on another road.
The previous chapter was blocked, and I couldn't find the reason after searching for a long time, so I simply rewrote it and applied for its unblocking.
