The next day, Ye Chen was awakened by the noise from the outside world.
Although the venue needs to be set up these days and the noise outside has never stopped, today is particularly noisy.
However, before Ye Chen could get up, a knock sounded outside the door, accompanied by Qiao Siyu's familiar voice.
"Boss! Wake up! Sister Si Meng is here! The opening ceremony is about to start!" Qiao Siyu shouted loudly. Ye Chen couldn't help but ask himself, "You're the main person in charge of this trade fair. The opening ceremony is about to start, so why aren't you preparing? Why are you disturbing my sleep?"
"Coming, coming!" Ye Chen said helplessly, getting out of bed like a walking corpse.
"Alright, you go ahead and get busy, we'll be there in a bit!" Si Meng's voice came from outside the door. Clearly, she had come with Qiao Siyu, otherwise Ye Chang wouldn't have let the two of them knock on the door so brazenly.
"Squeak~~" The door opened and Ye Chang came in carrying hot water, placed it on the table, and then helped Ye Chen get dressed.
Such things are usually done by Ye Xi on the Primordial Star, but now that Ye Xi is not here, they have fallen on her.
"My lord, should we bring the imperial carriage with us when we go out later?" Ye Chang asked.
"No need, it's too conspicuous. Just have those black birds and dragons transform into human form and come out with us!" Ye Chen shook his head. The imperial carriage was really too ostentatious. He had been tricked once, why would he be tricked a second time?
As for transformation, this is an ability that divine beasts on the Primordial Star possess after reaching a high level. Especially after being conferred as gods, their transformation becomes more thorough, making them no different from ordinary people. However, they usually do not like to transform into human form, and the form of beasts is more comfortable for them.
"Okay!" Ye Chang nodded.
Ye Chen quickly finished tidying up, pushed open the door, and saw Si Meng on a recliner in the courtyard, watching the dragon and phoenix flying in the sky, her eyes full of amazement.
"You're out?" The commotion brought Si Meng back to her senses, and she turned to look at Ye Chen with a light smile.
"We've been waiting too long! Where are we going now?" Ye Chen asked with an awkward smile.
"The opening ceremony is about to begin, and we need to make an appearance, since some important figures from other factions have also come!" Si Meng stood up and said with a smile.
"Hiss! Opening ceremony? Are we going to have to go on stage and give a speech?" Ye Chen suddenly felt a toothache. He should have dragged Fatty over with him. With Fatty's teleportation ability, probably no one can match him.
"No need for that. If there's going to be a speech, they'll let us know in advance. We'll just show our faces. Of course, if you want to give a speech, that's fine too. It's just a matter of saying a word. As a major shareholder of Duobao Group, as long as you don't mess up this trade fair, you can do whatever you want!" Si Meng replied, pointing to the courtyard where an airship was docked.
"No, no, I'm just here to find some good stuff. It would be best if I could keep my distance!" Ye Chen quickly shook his head to refuse, and followed Si Meng towards the airship. Ye Chang, on the other hand, beckoned the dragons and phoenixes around them, who all transformed into human form and followed behind.
This scene made Si Meng's eyes light up. The humanoid beauties that had been conjured up were simply otherworldly, and even she couldn't help but drool over them.
"Your life? That's impressive! You can even transform into human form? Does Mengyi know about this?" Simeng asked curiously.
"Of course I know, the divine beasts on the Primordial Star can all transform into human form!" Ye Chen curled his lips. How could he possibly give you the chance to trick him?
"Okay! These are really beautiful. Can you give me a few? I think they could be used as the storefront for Duobao!" Si Meng said excitedly.
"You're dreaming! These are all my family members, peak sixth-tier experts, who can advance to the seventh tier at any time. I'll even give you a few!" Ye Chen said irritably, which surprised Si Meng.
She never expected that these beautiful women, who looked delicate and pretty after transforming, would actually have the strength of the peak of the sixth rank.
"Uh! That! Just kidding! Sorry!" Si Meng laughed awkwardly, while apologizing to the girls. Asking for a member of a clan was a very offensive thing, let alone asking for a powerful person who was about to enter the seventh rank.
Just like what Ye Chen didn't say, if I really wanted to give it to you, would you dare to accept it?
"It's alright! We're not leaving Honghuang Star anyway!" a dragon girl said, not taking Si Meng's words to heart.
As their own strength increases, they often have more autonomy in making choices. For example, if they were in the territory of other lords, they would have the right to choose whether to stay or leave. Many rules could no longer restrict them. Staying on the Primordial Star or staying in the Heavenly Court would be their own choice.
"Alright! But I'm still sorry!" Si Meng apologized again, maintaining due respect for powerful individuals regardless of whether they were lords or not.
"By the way, I sent you the list of items for this trade fair to your terminal. However, it only includes the items that the major powers are trading, and it may change at any time. As for the items that the new lords are trading on their own, they are not on this list, and we cannot count them!" After apologizing, Si Meng said to Ye Chen.
Ye Chen was taken aback. He opened his communicator and found an email from Si Meng. Inside was a densely packed list of products, with over a hundred pages of names listed.
These goods are traded by various powerful entities, and the prices are not too high. They are mainly a benefit for newcomers, which is why previous lords are not allowed to participate. Of course, there are some people like Ye Chen, but they are basically looking for things they need, and they do not excessively influence the market.
"Let me see what good stuff I have?" Ye Chen said, his eyes sweeping over the many goods. There were indeed quite a few good items, but they were basically of little use to him. Most of the things here were for new lords, and he couldn't very well stoop to competing with them for the rare items.
Ultimately, they focused their attention on the spark of civilization and bloodline crystals, which are the eternal hard currency among lords.
Compared to the warehouses of the Duobao Group, there are many more seeds of civilization here, but most of them are low-level races that are not very useful, and only occasionally do some intelligent races appear.
However, perhaps to liven up the atmosphere of the newcomer trade fair, some decent intelligent races and even prodigies were also included. Unfortunately, they were not what Ye Chen needed at the moment, so he could only regretfully skip them and search among the numerous bloodline crystals to see if there were any useful bloodlines left behind.
