"Yes, Senior."
The scholar surnamed Guo withdrew respectfully and carefully closed the hall doors, relief slipping unbidden into his eyes.
Earlier, Bai Sheng had been about to walk out, and the deal had been on the verge of falling through.
The reason he had suddenly changed his mind and sold the two fourth-tier spirit materials, Dragon Marrow Jade and breath-sinking sand, was precisely because Senior Yu inside the hall had ordered him to.
In truth, his position and standing within the Yinghai Trading Company gave him absolutely no authority to dispose of fourth-tier spirit materials.
Even going to all the trouble of transferring those two fourth-tier spirit materials from headquarters to Spirit Firmament City was beyond his power.
All of it had been done at Senior Yu's command.
After Bai Sheng had last visited the Yinghai Trading Company to place his commission, Senior Yu had ordered the headquarters in Luojing to send someone over with the two materials.
Moreover, Senior Yu had instructed him to prepare terms for Bai Sheng to join the Yinghai Trading Company as a guest elder.
Thus, after Bai Sheng refused to join the Yinghai Trading Company, he had thought that would be the end of it.
What he had not expected was that Senior Yu would ultimately still order him to sell the two fourth-tier spirit materials to Bai Sheng.
These two spirit materials were actually transferred from Luojing specifically for Bai Sheng at Senior Yu's request, weren't they? the scholar surnamed Guo thought silently as he walked. Perhaps Senior Yu intended to give him the two fourth-tier spirit materials for free if he agreed to join the Yinghai Trading Company, and sell them to him normally if he refused.
*I wonder just what relationship Bai Sheng has with Senior Yu for her to look
