[Sophia: The Mysterious House Chamber of Commerce, also known as the Mond Chamber of Commerce, is rumored to be owned by a demihuman named Mond. It mainly deals in magic devices, magic materials, and magic potions.
The Mysterious House Chamber of Commerce is huge and powerful to an incredible degree. As far as I know, there are branches of the Mysterious House Chamber of Commerce in major cities in all countries on the mainland.
When Sofia passed the message to herself, the waiter of the Mysterious House came over with a smile. However, after Leah raised her hand, the other party tactfully bowed from a distance and went to entertain other customers.
[Qin Bin: No wonder the sign of this store is so fat. But it is very difficult to run a store of this level.]
While Qin Bin was responding in the "mind interaction", he and Sophia and the others came to the shelves full of goods.
[Sophia: It is indeed difficult to do. It is basically certain that it is impossible to get it. After all, our relationship with the Mysterious House is very superficial, so superficial that we are just ordinary customers who come here occasionally.
Of course, we didn’t come in for the signboards, but the products in Mystery House are all very famous. I thought, if it’s suitable, we can just spend money to get it.
Abin, how about these things? 】
Qin Bin took a quick glance at the dazzling array of magical devices and potions on the shelves. Although some items contained hundreds, thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of willpower, the prices displayed on the counter made Qin Bin shake his head.
【Qin Bin: Everything here is priced at a high price, and it's often hundreds or thousands. It's too expensive. And the power of will contained in most of the things is not even as much as the few Yuanlang coins that the vendor gave as change when Liya bought snacks just now. Liya, take this, this, and that, and you can get 25 power in total. Oh, find an excuse to ask the other party to give you more change, such as exchanging coins or something.】
When Qin Bin was transmitting the message, he also pointed at three magic devices that cost several hundred saint lang.
"Okay." Leah nodded in understanding and planned to ask the waiter to come over to settle the bill.
But at this moment, a moving female voice came from afar.
"It's a rare occasion for you all to come together, but Yan failed to welcome you."
But then a beautiful woman wearing a dark red cheongsam, white silk high heels, holding a folding fan in her hand, and with waist-length black hair, came towards them with two maids with very elegant steps.
The appearance of this mature and beautiful woman who called herself "Yan" made Qin Bin slightly stunned.
It was not because of the familiar clothes or the stunning beauty of the other person, but because of the pair of rabbit ears on her head, which were so eye-catching.
Of course, the more critical thing is the entry above the other person's ear.
[Yan·Monde——47 Wish Power]
While Qin Bin was looking at the other person, Sophia, who was more sociable, had already stepped forward and started to exchange polite words with him.
"I didn't expect to alarm Manager Yan. I'm really sorry for disturbing her."
"You're welcome, Miss Hall..."
The polite and socially polite exchanges clearly showed that the two parties were just acquaintances.
At the same time, Leah used the "mind interaction" constructed by Xiaobai to convey her voice to Qin Bin.
[Liya: This person is Yan Mond, the manager of the Mysterious House Imperial Capital Branch, a demihuman, rabbit, 27 years old, and suspected to be a fifth-level practitioner. The information on the travel voucher indicates that he was born in the demihuman autonomous region in the central part of the empire, but there is no other useful information.
However, judging from her last name, she is likely to have close ties with the top brass of the Mysterious House Chamber of Commerce.
Unfortunately, this is just speculation. Apart from that, this person is a mystery.
By the way, Yan Monde is well-known in the imperial capital for her versatility and her ability to make friends with everyone. What impressed me most was that my cousin was very... respectful to her. Well, I can only describe it as respectful. 】
After hearing what Liya said, Qin Bin understood and glanced at Xiaobai.
[Xiao Bai: Don't look at me. I know almost nothing about the Mysterious House. The main reason is that our Dragon Clan basically doesn't pay attention to external forces that are not ethnic or national. But my grandfather did mention it in a casual chat, saying that "the Mysterious House is quite interesting". I think that to be able to catch my grandfather's eye, this Mysterious House must be very extraordinary.]
[Qin Bin: I see... But just the fact that this mysterious house has branches in major cities across the continent and has developed steadily between countries must mean that it has a very strong foundation.]
[Liya: It is indeed a strong foundation. The Mysterious House has existed for more than 800 years. It has always been neutral between various forces on the continent, but it has never been targeted by any force. From this, it seems that the rumor that the Mysterious House has two Saint Domain masters is an underestimate.]
While Leah was sighing in the "mind interaction", Sofia had already finished exchanging pleasantries with the "Bunny Girl" store manager.
The 'Bunny Girl' store manager also came forward to greet Xiaobai and Liya.
After all, Xiaobai's identity as a dragon princess was known to almost everyone, at least it was not a secret among the upper and middle classes in the imperial capital. And Leah, the daughter of Grand Duke Garcia, the emperor's niece, and the eldest prince's cousin, was also no secret among the upper and middle classes in the imperial capital.
However, Leah still looked emotionless, and her only response to the other party was a slight nod.
Xiaobai was even more outrageous. He just glanced at the other person and ignored him. He even took out his cell phone and started playing games.
The manager of 'Bunny Girl' seemed to be very familiar with the personalities of Leah and Xiaobai. She didn't care about the rudeness of the two girls at all. She just kept smiling. After glancing at the mobile phone in Xiaobai's hand inconspicuously, she was about to greet Qin Bin politely.
But just as the 'Bunny Girl' store manager was about to speak, Xiaobai's body 'floated around' and her arm directly touched Qin Bin's cheek.
Qin Bin's mind moved, and he casually "pushed" Xiaobai. Seeing that Xiaobai was floating to the side, he stretched out his hand to pull it back, and also made Xiaobai "float straight" with his feet facing downwards.
When Qin Bin dialed, Xiaobai did not show any unusual reaction and let Qin Bin do what he wanted.
This 'ordinary' scene made the 'bunny girl' store manager's pupils shrink.
However, the strange look disappeared instantly. The manager of the Bunny Girl said in a warm and generous manner, but with a secluded tone, "Mr. from another world, welcome to the House of Mystery. I am the person in charge of this branch, Yan Mond."
"It seems that anyone can see through my identity as someone from another world. Hello, store manager. I'm Qin Bin. Qin is my last name. I'm currently...Liya's follower."
Qin Bin responded with a smile, placed his right hand on his left chest, bowed slightly, and performed a shallow greeting commonly used on the mainland.
Yan Monde, of course, regarded Leah's followers as a joke, so she bowed slightly in an elegant manner and said, "Although this is the first time I have seen a humanoid alien life form, the aura of alien life forms is very special. When placed in a crowd, it is like the bright moon overshadowing the stars. Mr. Qin Bin's aura is even more special, as dazzling as the rising sun dispelling the darkness of the night. How could I ignore it?"
"The store manager's praise makes me feel ashamed." Qin Bin maintained a social smile. "To be honest, this cheongsam looks even more beautiful against the backdrop of the store manager's peerless appearance."
Yan Monde raised the folding fan in her hand and put it in front of her mouth to hide her smile. She said, "Mr. Qin is really good at talking. It turns out that this style of clothing is called 'cheongsam'. I didn't expect it to be the clothing of Mr. Qin's hometown. It seems that Mr. Qin and I are very destined."
After Manager Yan Monde said this, Qin Bin knew that the luck he subconsciously held was meaningless, but he responded calmly, "Meeting in the crowd is fate, why do we need a reason?"
"Sir, you are right. It is fate that we can meet in such a vast sea of people. There is no need for any reason. It is my great honor to meet Mr. Qin today."
"I am no exception. It is my great honor to meet such a beautiful lady like the store manager."
After Qin Bin and Yan Mond exchanged a few words, they smiled at each other. It was as if they really hit it off and appreciated each other.
However, although they were smiling on the surface, their minds were completely different.
Because they all agree that the other person is likely to be a "smiling tiger".
I even had a feeling that if he (she) continued to flatter and be polite to me, it would never end.
However, what shocked Yan Mond was that when she was talking to Qin Bin, Leah and Sophia stood consciously on the left and right of Qin Bin, and they were half a step behind him.
What does this stance mean?
It's very simple. The two maids who came with Yan Mond are now standing in this position.
In other words, in this small circle, this man from another world is the leader!
The thought flashed through her mind, and Yan Mond smiled and said, "By the way, I just saw Mr. Qin shaking his head at the goods in our store, but you don't like the goods in the lobby?"
Qin Bin was about to speak when Xiao Bai suddenly said, "Xiao Bin, did you bring the lychees? I forgot to bring them."
Xiaobai's words were very abrupt, and even to Sofia and Leah, they sounded like lies.
But there was a hint of doting in Qin Bin's eyes, and he took out a fruit basket from the storage ring. In the fruit basket were cherry tomatoes, lychees, grapes, etc. that Qin Bin kept for himself. Of course, they were all snacks.
When handing it to Xiaobai, Qin Bin also said, "Don't throw the peels around. Be civilized and hygienic."
"I know, a nagging man."
After Xiaobai retorted, he picked up the fruit basket and left. His cell phone automatically floated in front of him, and a TV series called "The Great Qin Empire" was playing on the external speaker. He peeled the fruit while watching the series with relish.
Xiaobai knows Chinese?
of course.
After all, Qin Bin can replicate the common language of the mainland for his own use, so he can also replicate Chinese for Xiaobai.
Back to the topic, Xiaobai's sudden move made Yan Mond even more frightened.
——The relationship between this man and the Dragon Princess... huh... interesting...
While Yan Monde was thinking this, Qin Bin turned around and apologized, "Excuse me. Well, the store manager misunderstood. It's not that the things here are unattractive. After all, based on your store's reputation on the mainland, I know that your products must be high-quality. The reason why I shook my head is simply that I didn't find what I liked."
"I see." Yan Monde nodded and said, "I wonder if Mr. Qin has time to accompany me into the inner hall to take a look?"
Chapter 045: You Come and I Go
Inner hall?
Just as Qin Bin was puzzled, Leah beside him spoke softly.
"Bin, the inner hall of the Mysterious House is known as the 'Treasure House' in the outside world. It is not open to the public and only receives guests approved by the Mysterious House."
"I see."
Qin Bin nodded suddenly and said to Yan Mond with a smile.
"Since the store manager doesn't mind, we'll bother you."
"Mr. Qin, you are too polite. Everyone, please come this way."
Yan Mond responded with a smile, then spread her hands and led the way.
Qin Bin and his group followed Yan Mond into the store.
Along the way, seeing the waiters and even the guests bowing respectfully when they saw Yan Mond, it can be seen how powerful this "bunny girl" is.
After Qin Bin and his party entered the inner hall, several more nobles entered the shop. They looked at each other and felt a little embarrassed, but they also planned to follow. Then after the shop attendant raised his hand to stop them, they came to their senses, smiled awkwardly, and pretended to go to the side to look at the goods.
There was no way. In the imperial capital, let alone the children of nobles, even dukes and nobles did not dare to act wildly in the mysterious house.
They may be dandy and aggressive, or young and immature, but they are all children of aristocrats with normal brain development and elite education. They know very well what they can do and what they must not do.
Not to mention those noble children, let’s look at Qin Bin and his group.
From the outside, the Mysterious House Imperial Capital branch looks like just an ordinary five-story store.
However, after passing through the outer hall, you will enter a courtyard with beautiful environment and exquisite decoration.
After walking along the corridor for a while, Qin Bin and the others were led into a wide hall under the courtesy of several guards who were obviously experts.
The moment he stepped into the hall, Xiaobai suddenly said.
"The barrier covering this place is... a ninth-order barrier, right?"
"Your Highness has good eyesight. This is indeed the ninth-order holy domain barrier that our store is most proud of." Yan Mond responded with a respectful smile.
"It seems that your Mysterious House is really interesting. On the mainland, only capitals of the same level as Saint Kana can afford the ninth-level barrier, but you use it like this. Tsk tsk... interesting."
Xiaobai spoke with great interest and in a slightly mysterious tone - of course, it would have been more interesting if she had put down the half-peeled lychee and put away the mobile phone and fruit basket in front of her.
Yan Mond didn't respond, but just smiled back.
Just when she was about to say something to change the subject, Leah beside her was staring blankly at a booth a few meters away and muttering.
"...Isn't that a holy crystal?"
"Ms. Garcia is right, that is the holy crystal." Yan Mond said as he spread his hands and motioned everyone to come over and take a look.
Qin Bin and his group followed Yan Mond to the booth.
Yan Mond lightly stroked the booth with the folding fan in her hand, as if unlocking some invisible anti-theft measures, then reached out and picked up the diamond-shaped translucent crystal on the booth that was only the size of a baby's fist and handed it to Leah.
Leah took it with both hands and looked at it carefully.
"I feel like this is it. I saw it at the auction house in Grans Province half a year ago, but unfortunately the price was too high and I was not well prepared, so I had to give up in the end... I didn't expect it to end up in the mysterious house..."
While Leah was sighing, Sophia beside Qin Bin whispered to Qin Bin.
"The Holy Crystal, also known as the 'Holy Domain Crystal' or the 'Ninth Order Magic Core', is a special crystal core in the head of a ninth order holy domain monster. In addition to being an extremely rare magical material, it is also the best summoning material. This thing is very rare, and it can basically be said that it is priceless. If this one is the one sold at the Grans Province Auction House, it would be really famous. When this Holy Crystal was unveiled, it caused a sensation -"
As Sophia said this, she gave Qin Bin a subtle look.
Qin Bin understood and nodded subtly, but on the surface he sighed, "That's really an incredible thing..."
Sophia understood but remained calm and continued to act as Qin Bin's "little follower".
When Qin Bin responded, he also noticed a hint of desire in Leah's eyes.
Seeing this, Qin Bin spoke before Yan Monde, who was good at observing people's expressions, could speak.
"Manager, can I take a closer look?"
"——Of course. Please, Mr. Qin." Yan Mond responded with a smile. In fact, she had already seen Leah's intention and was about to guide Leah to pay, but Qin Bin's words forced her to put the deal aside.
Leah, whose attention was originally focused on the Holy Crystal, paused slightly after Qin Bin spoke, as if she realized something. Then, after the host had given her permission, she handed the Holy Crystal in her hand to Qin Bin.
Qin Bin also took it with both hands, mainly because he subconsciously thought this was a cultural relic and antique shop.
[Fire Element Ninth Order Scorpion Lion Magic Core - 49 Wish Powers]
After receiving the Holy Crystal, Qin Bin pretended to examine it carefully, and then said, "I wonder how the transaction is done here?"
Yan Monde smiled and said, "It seems that Mr. Qin also likes this holy crystal. There are three ways to trade in our inner hall. The first is to pay holy lang or holy gold of equal value, the second is to exchange goods for goods, and the third is to exchange things for goods."
