Immortal Realm’s Smuggling Kingpin - Chapter 45

Chapter 45: Underground Bank (1)

“Cough, I don’t mean it that way.” Luo Qian took out 27 ropes. “These are the measurements.”

Pei Sefei’s face changed then and there. She was deathly pale. She shook as she pointed at him and asked, “Yo-you, all these are your…”

Luo Qian quickly explained, “No! I’m just helping other people to buy them. This is business, purely business!”

How could Pei Sefei be willing to believe that? Tears welled up in her eyes. “I really did not think that you’re actually such a person!”

Luo Qian was irritated; he spread both hands and said, “Didn’t you say that you won’t ask me anything?”

Pei Sefei bit her lip and restrained the urge to run away. “B-but, such things are different.”

Luo Qian could not help but recall those ‘pledges’ from Li Fei’er and her Third Aunt. Feeling annoyed in his heart, he vowed never to trust the pledges of women in the future.

Seeing Pei Sefei’s pitiful appearance, Luo Qian did not have the heart to see her like this. “Alright, alright, I’ll tell you. Someone paid me money to buy it on their behalf. Where they live, it’s very inconvenient to buy such things, so the remuneration for this deal is very high. If you’re unwilling to help, I’ll go myself. I can only say this much. It’s up to you to believe it or not.”

At present, Pei Sefei had already thought it through. If Luo Qian really had so many lovers, how was it possible that he couldn’t even figure out women’s measurements and even needed to use these ropes to estimate them? She knew that she had misunderstood Luo Qian. Seeing that Luo Qian looked slightly angered, she ran over at once, hugged his arm, and shook it lightly. “Sorry, Qian, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have misunderstood you; I do trust you…”

She grabbed those ropes and swiftly dashed towards a high-end mall. “I’ll go buy them right now. Just wait for me.”

Pei Sefei’s taste was naturally much better than Luo Qian’s. She was a figure in the entertainment industry in any case. However, both Pei Sefei and Luo Qian had clearly neglected one thing—Pei Sefei was now the queen of the new generation. Inside the high-end mall, surveillance cameras were placed everywhere…

Pei Sefei bought 27 sets of extremely sexy underwear and handed them to Luo Qian. She asked excitedly, “Boss, how much money can be made from this deal?”

Luo Qian’s brows knitted together. “In short, a lot.”

“Even more than two billion?” Pei Sefei recalled how Luo Qian had easily ‘squandered’ two billion yuan for her and felt both heartache and happiness.

Luo Qian nodded and said very seriously, “A lot more!”

“Hehe!” Pei Sefei hugged Luo Qian’s arm joyfully. “You’re really capable!”

After sending Pei Sefei home, Luo Qian went to buy five of the newest edition Xboxes, then disappeared once again.

It took Luo Qian three trips to bring everything—27 sets of sexy underwear included—back to the Immortal Realm. Seeing Luo Qian return from outside and head towards the underground palace repeatedly, Li Fei’er was excited. Luo Qian pushed five game consoles to her while he was at his work. In order to save space, Luo Qian had removed all of the packaging.

Li Fei’er was delighted, and she said, “Boss, thank you!”

Luo Qian moved the items as he said, “Don’t thank me. The game consoles are only game consoles. I won’t gift you the power supply. If you want the power supply, you have to fork out another sum.”

Li Fei’er pursed her lips. “I knew you were miserly!”

Luo Qian laughed out loud. “Miserly? No matter how stingy I am, how can I compare to Du Lengning? He’s the son of the third most miserly Immortal in the Immortal Realm.”

After moving the 27 sets of sexy underwear to the Immortal Realm, Luo Qian wiped his perspiration. “Alright, the goods have arrived. It’s everyone’s first time working together. Pay the cash, and I’ll give the goods. Go back and tell them to prepare to fork out the money.”

The clients that Li Fei’er introduced were all very straightforward. Without a second word, all the payments were cleared within three days. As the middleman, Li Fei’er made a few more trips and delivered all of the underwear.

After collecting all of the payments, Luo Qian did a very ‘butter-and-egg man’ thing; he neatly stacked 3,240 pieces of Superior Immortal Jade into a square and laid on top of it for a nap…

The next morning, Luo Qian stretched himself. “Aiya… this feeling, real good! Immortal Qi lingers around Superior Immortal Jade. I feel invigorated and 100 times more refreshed after the nap!” Those fellows in the Human Realm who use USD as their beds really are too tacky. All that copper stink, what is nice about sleeping on that? Luo Qian—who felt that he was in a much higher stage than those wealthy provincial landlords in the Human Realm—cockily got out of bed.

Luo Qian was reluctant to part with the Immortal Jade bed and woke up late. He was still unaware that the Immortal Realm was deep in wet dreams today. A considerable number of people had woken up late.

The 27 sets of sexy underwear had set off a sexy wave in the dark night, where nothing could be seen. The Immortals who had never seen their wives dressed this hotly felt their lust erupt. Full of vigor, they made love to their hearts’ content for the whole night. When they drowsily dozed off, it was already the latter half of the night. The couples who had not been so harmonious like fish and water for a long time naturally slept deeper and longer after that storm.

For the wives who had gotten their husband’s favor, the stirrings of love on their faces could not be concealed. Who didn’t have a few bosom friends? Hence, one person told ten, and ten told 100. This secret swiftly spread far and wide amongst the wives of the Immortal Realm.

Luo Qian had expected the huge market for sexy underwear, but did not expect the market’s response to be this fiery!

On the fourth day after those 27 sets of sexy underwear were secretly transported to the Immortal Realm, Luo Qian received a new batch of orders. Li Fei’er gingerly brought out another 50 ropes under Luo Qian’s scrutinizing gaze!

On the fifth day, under the Lunisolar Palm Immortal art, 110 ropes were found.

On the sixth day, 200 ropes…

Lust swept through the Immortal Realm. Spring was in the air of the nine dimensions! Such a vigorous and large-scale underwear revolution unfolded in the Immortal Realm’s underground. Despite the market becoming unprecedentedly large, no one dared to go snitch. After all, sexy underwear that cost 120 Superior Immortal Jade per set certainly wasn’t something that the average person could afford to buy. The people buying the underwear were all the noble ladies of the Immortal Realm. They had families with powerful backgrounds and influence. Once Luo Qian was discovered and seized, a huge group of people would be implicated. Hence, not only would these people not snitch, they would instead safeguard Luo Qian in every possible way.

Within a mere seven days, Luo Qian had sold more than 1,000 sets of sexy underwear, and earned profits close to 130,000 Superior Immortal Jade. Of course, Luo Qian, Pei Sefei, and Li Fei’er were dead tired during these seven days. Even Du Lengning had covered hundreds of thousands miles.

The profits were immense. After the first sexy wave was the calmness between the storm. Superior Immortal Jade was about to clutter up the entire underground palace. Right now, the few dozen rice cookers were placed on piles of Immortal Jade as they produced elixirs. Luo Qian was like a happy fish, swimming in the Immortal Jade lake’s waters.

“Hahaha. Old Luo, we’ve gotten rich, gotten rich!” Du Lengning laid on the Immortal Jade, jumping and slapping very ungracefully. He was so excited that he howled like a wolf.

This was Li Fei’er’s first time walking into the Fushan underground palace. Despite being of noble birth, it was also her first time seeing so many Superior Immortal Jade in her life. Her shock wasn’t any less than that of Luo Qian and Du Lengning. The little loli said dazedly, “Boss, there’s so much money. Why don’t you deposit them into a bank?”

Du Lengning promptly objected. “Don’t, don’t. Old Luo, pile them up just like this. I’ll move in with you tonight. I want to sleep on Immortal Jade too. Hahaha…”

Li Fei’er pursed her lips. “Bumpkin…”

Du Lengning—who was extremely excited—did not hear her at all.

Luo Qian considered for a while. “You are right. It is indeed not safe to leave so much money in Fushan. We ought to find a bank to deposit them. But…” Luo Qian frowned. “I’m just the owner of a small medicine hall. If I suddenly deposit so much money, I’m afraid it will arouse other people’s suspicions. I have heard hearsay that the people from the Imperial Arrest Council will often check the deposit accounts of the Immortal Realm’s big banks.”

Li Fei’er grinned. “Boss, have you heard of ‘dark banks’ before?”

“Dark? Such an odd name. I’ve never heard of it. I only know of the Immortal Realm’s five big banks—Nan[1] Ji, Bei[2] Yuan, Dong[3] Tong, Xi[4] Huo, Zhong[5] Yuan.”

“Well, I’ve heard of it before.” Du Lengning spread out his four limbs, forming a very obscene snow angel posture as he laid on the Immortal jade. “Dark bank is actually just a general term. Its meaning is that they exist in the darkness. The Immortal Realm’s Imperial Arrest Council and other similar organizations cannot interfere with them. They accept funds from any sources and keep secrets for depositors. However, their fees are higher than that of regular banks.”

“After all that, they’re just underground banks,” said Luo Qian. “However, are such underground banks secure?” Luo Qian was a little uneasy.

Li Fei’er smiled. “Boss, rest assured. Of all the big family clans in the Immortal Realm, which one doesn’t have some hidden income? Where has their money gone? Everything has gone into these dark banks. Although their fees are slightly higher, the services are good. They don’t ask questions. Depositing and withdrawing are also convenient. As for the security… as long as you find the right bank, their safety measures are even better than the regular banks.”

Luo Qian’s eyes lit up. “In this case, you certainly know some pretty good dark banks?”

Li Fei’er lifted her head. “Of course!”

“We have 130,000 Superior Immortal Jade. We cannot deposit everything in one bank.” Luo Qian said after some thought, “We will deposit 1,000 Superior Immortal Jade in each of the Immortal Realm’s five big banks. The remaining sum shall be divided into three portions and deposited in different dark banks.”

Li Fei’er thought for a moment. “That’s okay. Right now, there are three big ones amongst the dark banks. They are jointly known as ‘three darks.’ They are Dark Jade Bank, Dark Gold Bank, and Dark Diamond Bank. It’s just enough to deposit Boss’s money.”

“Alright. You’ll help us do the contacting for this matter.” Luo Qian handed this matter to Li Fei’er.

Du Lengning used his Universe in the Sleeve and brought out that sniper rifle. “Old Luo, I’ll return this injection syringe to you. The Clearwater Kirin has almost recovered from its illness. Old Mr. Zhao insists on seeing you before he leaves. Try to see when you can make a trip to Mountain Ning Yao.”

Zhao Xihe was a heavy-weight figure that Luo Qian took a lot of trouble to cozy up to. He had to build a good relationship with him, regardless of what it took. Luo Qian nodded. “Alright, let’s go now. Fei’er, about the dark banks, get it done as soon as possible. So much Immortal Jade is placed here. Even with the Nine Realms of Smoke and Chaos guarding the place, I don’t feel at ease.”
