Yu-Gi-Oh!: This card wants to go to you.

"The stakes aren't high, just three to five hundred at a time."

"That tea-bearded guy, see him? He's a musician from the western fortress, his name is Serang."

"That saxophone playing is really good..."

“And this one!” Binel pointed to a plaque, “My favorite card shop—[Miracle Merchant Card]!”

"The boss and his wife are both very easy to talk to."

"Ahem, follow my rhythm later..." She had a mischievous and cute smile on her face, "maybe we can get a 10% discount."

"You're so knowledgeable," Luo Bai exclaimed in a daze.

It's clear she really likes it here.

Bina gave an awkward laugh and said, "The owner of this shop is quite traditional; he's religious and believes in God. Coach, you should watch your words..."

"What are you saying?" Luo Bai straightened his back. "I also believe in God, okay?"

"I'm very respectful."

"I hate blasphemers more than anything in my life!"

“Hehe…” Bi Nai’er gave a polite, awkward laugh and led Luo Bai into the card shop.

The storefront looks old and elegant, but the interior decoration is exceptionally exquisite and modern.

The dueling table and patrol robots are neatly arranged inside.

The space isn't very large, with twenty or thirty tables, but it's very comfortably furnished.

Many guests stood around watching the exciting matches, their expressions solemn, as if watching others play was like watching themselves play.

"Uncle Ye!" Binair called out to the elderly man in the shop manager's seat, her voice filled with warmth and familiarity, "Long time no see!"

She waved and greeted them, her face beaming with a cheerful smile.

The old man adjusted his reading glasses on his nose, stared intently at Bina, and after a moment of contemplation, a bright smile appeared on his face: "Is it Bina, little girl?"

"Oh my, it's been a while!"

Upon hearing this, the old woman beside her turned around and laughed, "Masked girl? Haven't seen you for a month..."

“Hahaha—” Binair laughed heartily, “The team has been training hard lately, so I haven’t had time to come down and play.”

"Come, come, let me introduce someone to you!"

She led the two elderly people from the store manager's seat to Luo Bai.

"This is me—"

Before Binael could finish speaking, the old woman interrupted with a smile, "Your lover?"

"Girl, you've finally come to your senses."

The old woman held Binel's hand tightly, her eyes full of concern and affection. "A girl your age should seize the time to fall in love and have someone who cares for her."

Upon hearing this, Luo Bai's brows furrowed slightly.

It wasn't because of a misunderstanding, but because the old woman was indeed, as Binelle said, quite traditional in her thinking.

Girls should be this way or that.

【Kaling's Loyalty】

[Same-sex resonance]

"No wonder she was dressed like a woman today," Luo Bai murmured.

However, Binel didn't care, or rather, she was used to it.

"Oh dear, you've misunderstood," Binaire explained with a smile. "He's our team's coach; he's been on TV."

Chapter 327 What Can't Be Hidden

"Coach?!" The two elderly men trembled involuntarily, immediately narrowing their eyes and scrutinizing Luo Bai.

Their hands trembled slightly, and their voices trembled noticeably: "It really is... a man using [Mischievous Fairy Star]..."

"Whip...beat someone to death..."

The two stared at Luo Bai, fear spreading in their eyes, and they unconsciously took a small step back.

As the older generation, they were deeply influenced by the ideology of the Confederation and were greatly shocked by the fact that a man would use a female deck in the league.

If it weren't for the fact that Luo Bai was a member of their fortress and held a high position as the team's coach, they probably would have already kicked him out with a broom.

Luo Bai didn't intend to explain anything, he just glanced at Binaier indifferently.

This implies that she can proceed with the script now.

But Benedictine was staring blankly at some card in the cabinet, lost in thought.

"Hey!" Luo Bai called out.

“Oh—” Binair finally realized what was happening and said to the two old men, “Uncle Ye, we’re here to discuss a big business deal.”

When the word "big business" was mentioned, a sharp glint flashed in her eyes.

"A big deal?" The two old men looked puzzled.

Biner showed her the priority purchase order she had compiled and said seriously, "Buy cards!"

"A million-level order!"

"We're such good friends, giving me a 10% discount isn't too much to ask, is it?"

She narrowed her eyes, and her calculations were so subtle that even the team members far away on the Sky Island could hear them.

Tell your boss you'll try to get a 5% discount, but when it comes down to it, try to get a 10% discount instead, keeping the extra 0.5% as a cashback.

Luo Bai really can't do this; it has to be Bi Nai'er.

Even heroes need to make a living!

Uncle Ye's eyes narrowed instantly. He gently pulled Bina over and asked in a low voice, "How much exactly?"

Card shops have very thin profit margins, and making a 10% concession is not an easy decision to make.

The two elderly people themselves don't have much need for money, but they have a grandson to consider.

Bina's expression turned serious. She slowly extended one hand, her five fingers spread wide.

"Five...five million?!" Uncle Ye's heart seemed to stop beating for a moment, he was extremely shocked.

Seeing this, Luo Bai took a few steps closer and quietly corrected him: "Three and a half million."

Bina was taken aback and asked in confusion, "Huh? Coach, do you have a card you want to buy?"

“Yes, there is one,” Luo Bai replied calmly. “It’s not on the list; I just remembered it.”

"Oh my?!" Binel's mouth gaped open slightly in surprise. "Coach, you're acting like a child. You're being too casual."

The procurement list was finalized after a night of discussion by the entire team, so making such a last-minute change does seem a bit arbitrary.

However, the agent said that this kind of thing should be handled by professionals.

She did exactly what the coach told her to do; her only responsibility was to negotiate the price.

“Three and a half million…” Uncle Ye took the list, his eyes filled with a heavy look. This amount was a huge challenge for the small shop.

“I know a few old friends who might be able to help. Give me a few minutes.”

After saying that, he took the list and walked to the back of the shop, clearly preparing to make a phone call for help.

While waiting, Bi Nai'er pulled Luo Bai to an empty seat, her eyes sparkling with curiosity and unease, and asked softly, "Coach, which card do you want to buy?"

Cheers erupted from the surrounding customers, the noisy atmosphere almost drowning out their conversation.

"One and a half million, that's no small sum."

"A superpower card..."

She stopped abruptly halfway through her sentence, her eyes widening involuntarily.

"You want to buy the Superpower Card?!" Binelle exclaimed in surprise.

The sudden shout drew surprised glances from the surrounding players, but after a brief commotion, everyone quickly returned to their respective games.

Bina shrank back awkwardly, trying to keep her voice down, and asked again to confirm, "Coach, you're not really planning to buy the Superpower Card, are you?"

She was filled with doubts. Her purchasing strategy focused on rare cards, as ten rare cards were clearly more valuable to the team than one extraordinary card, unless the extraordinary card had special importance.

Similar to the core of the starting lineup's deck.

Looking at Bina'er's anxious expression, Luo Bai smiled and replied playfully, "Guess?"

"Ouch~" Bina pouted, pretending to be coquettish: "Coach, stop teasing me, tell me, tell me, which one is it?"

She felt like a kitten was scratching at her heart, desperately wanting to know the answer.

Just as the two were having a relaxed conversation, heavy and powerful footsteps interrupted them. Uncle Ye ended his discussion with his friend and walked towards them.

His expression was somewhat serious. He beckoned the two closer, his voice tinged with hesitation: "Hmm...we can indeed find the source of the goods on the cards on the list..."

Upon hearing this, Bi Nai'er immediately raised her hands excitedly, ready to cheer, but what Uncle Ye said next stunned her.

“But—” Uncle Ye’s tone changed, and Bi Nai’er’s smile froze on her face.

Luo Bai noticed the change in atmosphere and calmly asked, "Is there a problem?"

“Well…” Uncle Ye seemed very troubled, “If we want to get a 10% discount, they require an order of at least two million.”

"We...also want two million..."

Both card vendors wanted 2 million in orders before they would offer a 10% discount, but they only had 3.5 million in total.

Luo Bai smiled calmly, his ease easing the tension in the air: "It's alright, I'm planning to buy 1.5 million worth of cards from you."

"But that card wasn't on the list."

Upon hearing this, the three of them widened their eyes in unison, as if time had stood still in surprise.

"Which card do you want to buy?" The three voices mingled together, filled with doubt.

Seeing this, Luo Bai gently raised one hand and gracefully pointed to the display case in the center of the shop. That usually held the shop's most prized collection.
