Chapter 1731 [Bonus ] Cat Statue’s Business Mind
Ajax didn't think that his father was lying about bringing only one person with him into the Secret World.
Instead, Ajax believed that he had already become much more powerful than his father at his peak and the more powerful he became, the more powerful and useful the system would become.
Therefore, Ajax could tell that he could bring more people with him compared to his father back then.
"Yes, Father."
Even though he learned that he could bring 100 cultivators with him, Ajax didn't explain it to his father and nodded his head at Aron's words.
"Let's go then."
Soon, Ajax flew towards the cave Ren had settled in and after explaining something, Ajax was all set to enter the Secret World.
As for Ren, he learned from Aron that Ajax had a way to enter the secret world already. So, he was not surprised much; however, he was excited about returning to the Secret World and meeting his old acquaintance.
'System, open the portal to the Secret World.'
Once everything was ready, Ajax ordered the system about it.
'Swoosh'
As soon as Ajax ordered the system, he could sense the spatial fluctuations around him and slowly, a small portal appeared in front of Ajax.
The small portal started growing and eventually grew into a huge portal that was even enough for Twilight in his true form to enter it. 𝘪𝘯𝑛𝑟𝑒𝘢𝘥.𝑐𝑜𝑚
"Let's go."
Soon, Ajax, Aron's soul orb and Ren entered the portal before the portal disappeared.

In the Special Notice Service Center, Trader's Realm,
'How is the progress on our latest commission?'
The Female Attendant received a voice transmission from the Cat Statue regarding the commission that Ajax placed.
"Sir, so far, we have collected five types of Giant Crystals and millions of low-level crystals. As for the total transaction of the deal, it had already reached 800 trillion trader's tokens."
The Female Attendant rushed to the Cat Statue and respectively informed the Cat statue.
'Good.'
The Cat Statue moved its head in satisfaction with the progress of the deal.
'Once the target of one Quadrillion trader's tokens reaches, continue to buy them crystals.'
After thinking for a moment, the Cat Statue explained clearly, 'However, decrease the price to 50 percent.'
"Sir, even 50 percent is still a little high. How about we buy it at 30 percent and in the current situation, the traders would still rush to sell their crystals."
The Female Attendant thought about it for a moment and suggested the Cat Statue.
Even though she was just an attendant, she was brave enough to share her thoughts and suggestions depending on the situation in a polite manner.
'Haha…little girl. Don't think too much about it. By purchasing the crystals at 50 percent, we can still make a lot of profits because I believe that clients of ours will buy more crystals at the same price.'
The Cat Statue was an entity that lived for tens of thousands of years and had enough experience with business-related things and thus, it was following its intuition.
"So, Sir wants to sell those crystals to clients at a full price making 50 percent profits and adding the 10 percent commission, the profits to the organization will reach to the next level."
The female attendant realized that she became too greedy and also when she heard the Cat Statue's line of thoughts, she finally understood that.
"But, what if the Client doesn't buy them?"
However, she suddenly thought of something and asked Cat Statue about it.
'We will wait for a decade or two until a new client comes requesting us for the crystals. At that time, we can go with the same plan.'
The Cat Statue transmitted its thoughts to the Female Attendant and explained, 'Even with inflation and all for the next one or two decades, we can still make lots of profits on what we are spending now…hehe…meow.'
"Yes, Sir. I will prepare our next notice and will release it as soon as the transaction value of the current commission reaches one quadrillion trader's tokens."
The frame attendant was about to leave the room when she heard the Cat Statue's words in her head once again, 'Also, prepare another commission of a value of Quadrillion Trader's Tokens. The item we will buy for this commission is Plant Essence.'
"Plant Essence?"
The female attendant turned around and looked at the Cat Statue with a surprised look.
They were already planning to buy crystals for a quadrillion trader's tokens after Ajax's commission was completed.
And now, the Cat Statue was ordering her to release another commission with a value of one Quadrillion Trader's Tokens.
"Yes. My cat guts are telling me that our client will be buying more drops of plant essence because I can tell that he was clearing and nurturing some plants…most probably a Lesser World Tree."
A being that lived for more than tens of thousands of years, the Cat Statue could tell that Ajax would be buying more and more drops of plant essence.
Since the current situation was better to buy the resources, the Cat Statue decided to accumulate the resources and sell them to their client.
"As for the price, let's buy them for 100 million trader's tokens."
Generally, the price of a single drop of plant essence was around 500 million trader's tokens and since Ajax wanted to get the plant essence as soon as he could, he raised the price to one billion trader's tokens.
As for the cat statute, it planned to buy a single drop of plant essence for just 100 million trader's tokens.
'I will contact the Forest Dragon Emperor, Sylvan. I believe that we might even get the plant essence of 50 million trader's tokens if we buy in bulk from him.'
Currently, all the cultivators in the world were in a hurry to get the trader's tokens…it was especially true for the Dragons from the Dragon Region because they need to pay one trillion trader's tokens for a single entry into the Celestial Dawn Realm.
Therefore, he decided to contact the Forest Dragon Emperor who nurtured so many trees and had access to plant-based resources including Plant Essence.
