Chapter 274: Celebrating the Saint_2


Lu Yan's eyebrows slightly raised. This storage bag was actually purchased by Lu Yan during the Xianxia version and does not belong to the sealed objects of this world, so naturally, it has no negative effects.

However, if Lu Yan were to say this, it might arouse suspicion from the other Transcendents, so he simply made up an excuse.

"The storage bag is not strictly considered an Extraordinary Item. It is formed through the Extraordinary Power, and its internal space is unstable. It will collapse after more than a hundred years of use."

Lu Yan's words, in turn, brought a sigh of relief to Ducao.

For them, as Sequence 5 powerhouses, more than a hundred years is already long enough. Unless they advance to Sequence 4, a storage bag could be used until death.

If they could advance to Sequence 4, they wouldn't need to care about a mere storage bag.

"Thank you, Your Holiness!"

Ducao tightly gripped the storage bag and stepped back, satisfied.

With Ducao as an example, most other trading Transcendents also chose storage bags.

However, the specifications of the storage bags varied based on the value of the Extraordinary Path knowledge exchanged.

Spatial Extraordinary Items are rarely available anywhere, and even if one does not need to sell them, they can be traded for desired items.

After a round of deals, all the Transcendents looked at Lu Yan with increasing veneration.

In their eyes, Lu Yan's casual distribution of so many storage bags likely indicated that Lu Yan's achievements in the realm of space were very high.

The Extraordinary Path involves the Power of Space, which is formidable even among the saints.

As the last Transcendent completed the transaction, the banquet fell into silence once again.

The atmosphere in the hall was subtle and complex, with the light of the crystal chandelier illuminating the varied expressions on their faces.

The Transcendents stood to the side, contentedly securing their received gifts, their eyes gleaming with anticipation.

Meanwhile, the other emerging nobles and capitalists looked at Lu Yan with eyes full of regret and envy.

They wore luxurious gowns and adorned themselves with precious jewels, wielding influence in the mortal world, yet in this Extraordinary world, they could only be onlookers.

They also wished to trade with Lu Yan, the saint, but as new elites, apart from mundane wealth, they had few Extraordinary resources and lacked the qualification to trade with Lu Yan.

Just as they thought they would miss this opportunity, Lu Yan suddenly spoke.

His voice was not hurried, yet it reached every ear clearly.

"The first round of trading is over, and now we will proceed to the second round."

These words were like a stone cast into a calm lake, creating ripples. The spark of hope reignited in the eyes of those nobles who had been disappointed.

Lu Yan's gaze swept over the emerging nobles and capitalists present, and a meaningful smile tugged at his lips as he said:

"I wish to discuss a business transaction with all of you. Are you interested?"

The emerging nobles and capitalists expressed joy, exchanging glances and discussing softly amongst themselves.

Some straightened their backs at once, presenting their most suitable demeanor, while others began calculating in their minds what resources they could offer.

Yet, some among them felt uneasy, a trace of wariness flashing in their eyes. In this world filled with mysterious forces, trading with a saint entailed unforeseeable risks.

A middle-aged noble, dressed in a deep blue suit with a handsome face, stepped forward, bowing slightly with a cautious yet dignified expression.

He was the head of the Welton Clan, holding significant influence in the emerging industrial sector.

"What kind of transaction does Your Holiness propose?" His voice was steady and powerful, filled with both anticipation and a touch of caution, "We mere mortals fear we cannot offer resources as precious as those from the Transcendents."

Lu Yan let out a light chuckle, a knowing smile as if he had already grasped the deepest thoughts of everyone present. The light from the chandelier cast a soft glow on him, adding a touch of mystery to this saint.

"The transaction I propose is very simple for you."

The nobles and capitalists present held their breath, fearing they would miss a single word. Some had already begun calculating potential chips and returns in their minds, their eyes glinting with anticipation.

"Today, I have established an organization called the Union. This organization aims to unite workers and help them gain their rightful rights, including wages, medical care, disability protection, and working conditions."

As Lu Yan spoke, the atmosphere in the hall subtly changed. Some nobles' smiles froze on their faces, with a hint of vigilance in their eyes, while others appeared thoughtful, seemingly evaluating the deeper meaning behind these words.

"Most of the people present have considerable control over factories in the industrial area or manage certain industries.

As long as you acknowledge the Union's charter and declare to the outside world to let your subordinate workers join the Union, I can offer you a small token of help."

Lu Yan's proposal exploded like a heavy bomb in the hearts of the nobles and capitalists, who exchanged glances filled with surprise, hesitation, and even anger.

Some nobles began whispering, voices filled with unease and doubt, while others remained silent, their eyes glinting with calculation as if they were weighing gains and losses.

The ladies in elegant dresses covered their lips with folding fans, whispering in secret, while the young capitalists furrowed their brows, contemplating the impact of this proposal on their enterprises.
