After having her manor purified, who would be so foolish to try that trick? However, as if some storm riders were giving her a visit, as soon as the flickering stopped, a group of ten people appeared in the middle of the living room, all dressed in black cloaks.
Seeing that, Diamond nearly freaked out. After all, when had she ever seen someone doing that except her?
Was this the extent of the ghost merchants’ power? She couldn’t help but be amazed when she saw them.
"Since you are here, take a seat. I believe that we have a lot to talk about!" keeping her calm though her heart was pounding like crazy, she said to the ten.
Orlon, the leader, took a seat while the other nine stood respectively, giving the two of them space to talk.
With Orlon here, Diamond went straight to the point and began to talk business. Orlon delivered the grain as she suggested and everywhere they went, people were grateful, despite not knowing who the good Samaritan was.
He also took out some rare items he found from the trip and gave them all to Diamond. It was mostly pearls and wild fruits, which were good. After all, she didn’t ask for much for the first trip.
"There are still a lot of places that are still lacking in terms of food and ...." Orlon never thought that one day he would find himself feeling so compassionate like that.
However, he couldn’t be blamed. After seeing the great difference between the rich and the poor, he no longer found his mistress’s actions to be impulsive.
Hearing that, Diamond nodded her head. People were indeed suffering and giving a bit more wouldn’t hurt, so she agreed with Orlon on that.
"Don’t worry, I will give you a greater share. You help distribute it to the places you see need it the most. For now, just distribute in Athary. Once that is done, I will see which country to target next!" without pondering much, Diamond said.
Orlon nodded his head, relieved to see that she wasn’t opposing him, but agreed with him on his suggestion.
There were a lot of things which Diamond wanted the ghost merchants to do. So, she gave them the hot artefacts which she was planning on sending back to their owners.
"You help me deliver this back to their rightful owners. Don’t leave a name. It’s not good to attract too much attention. Apparently, we have a lot of crouching tigers hidden all over!" as she thought of the apocalyptic man’s diary, she shivered.
She wasn’t the only person who knew how to use spiritual energy. There were a lot of people everywhere. Due to the scarcity of energy, these people simply went into seclusion.
She didn’t want to force these people out of seclusion and target her. She was simply too precious.
Diamond gave the merchants more instructions and gave them a few bottles of pills. She wanted to be sold on the mystical market, also known as the white market where pills, elixirs and other mystical items were sold.
It was different from the underground market, where a person could buy weapons and other illegal items. However, the best way to find the mystical market was also through this market.
Unfortunately, she didn’t want to have any association with this dark market, so she went straight for the white market.
