Out of the bar, Vail slowly walked down the alley and finally took off the ill-fitting black robes. Vail vowed not to wear that shabby thing again. Later, Kahn mentioned that he did not follow behind. What's the matter?

"Kane brother, let's settle it in advance. Three hundred thousand Berries. Do you want it now, or should we return to the sword hall?" Not far away, Vere asked.

Kahn was taken aback and replied stiffly, "Don't worry, let's split it later. By the way, my brother, why should I go back to the sword hall? Don't you know that the genius has started cultivating?"

"Oh, I went to the sword hall to find you, but you weren't there. I didn't know anyone else, so I had to go to the master. After the master's instructions, he asked me to go back and see him." Vail gave a nonchalant response.

Kahn's face changed, and he said angrily, "Why did you tell the master? Why tell the master?"

Vere suddenly turned his body and looked at Kahn.

"Why? Shouldn't you tell the master? By the way, Kahn's brother, it's better to give the master a share. Just you and me, a hundred thousand each. What do you say, Brother Kahn?"

Vail stared into Kahn's eyes, looking at the tall and strong figure in front of him.

Kahn's face turned even worse. Hesitating for a long time, he finally seemed to think of something terrifying.

"Fine, then give the master two hundred thousand. It's appropriate," Kahn mumbled in a low voice, his face showing reluctance.

Vail smiled and continued to move forward, never looking back at Kahn. Kahn followed behind in silence, his face still unsatisfied.

Until they reached the door to the sword hall, Vail turned around and asked.

"Do you want to see the master together, Kahn?"

"I won't go. I have to go to the back hill to practice. Give me the money." Kahn seemed absent-minded, not even caring about the change in Vail's address.

Vail took out two hundred thousand Berries from the box and handed it to Kahn, then walked back into the sword hall.

Today was a special day for Kahn because it was too thrilling to execute a big transaction. His young brain hadn't fully processed what had happened.

A new apprentice informed him of a significant deal worth several hundred Berries. Judging by the age and status of the young master, Kahn didn't believe it at first. Later, this young apprentice actually proved it to him.

Finally, he went to the black market with the young apprentice, and they actually sold information for six hundred Berries. Was the information really worth that much? Who knows. But thinking about the three hundred Berries he got immediately, Kahn felt lighter on his feet because he hadn't seen so much money since he was a child.

Suddenly, Kahn thought of a question. Why not just take care of this brat directly? Isn't the six hundred thousand Berries all his? The Yijian Pavilion is not a place for good men and women. What's personal is too normal for Kahn.

And with six hundred thousand Berries, Kahn could buy a decent sword, and his strength could improve significantly. Even if he didn't associate with his master, he could join the army. There was nothing wrong with being a Marine. With promotions, his strength might enable him to become a military officer.

Just as Kahn was about to start, the young scoundrel told him that the master had personally received the money and was actually aware of it. Kahn felt fear and panic.

Kahn had been with his master for five years. He knew that he had never been trusted by the master. Usually stationed in the sword hall, Kahn played the role of doorman and fighter. Others might not know, but Kahn knew. His master was formidable and dangerous.

Because a brother had offended the master, it didn't take long for the whole family to disappear inexplicably. Since then, Kahn became a pawn in front of the master. He listened to whatever the master said.

From three hundred thousand Berries to two hundred thousand Berries, Kahn didn't know how his master would punish him. Kahn was even more anxious.

Not to mention Kahn, Wei entered the sword hall and went straight to the middle room. He knocked on the door.

"Master, it's Vail. I have something to discuss."

Nice, in a soft voice, said, "Come in."

Inside the room, Vail found a cushion and sat in front of Nice. He spoke directly.

"Master, I just went to the black market with Mr. Kahn to sell information. We earned six hundred thousand Berries. I gave two hundred to the Kahn brothers. This two hundred is yours, and you can take it directly from the box."

"Oh? Since it's information sold by you and Kahn, why are you giving it to me?" Nice replied calmly.

"Although the master didn't participate, this is your swordhouse. Both Kahn and I are your apprentices."

The old man in front of Vail looked at him and replied honestly. Vail had always believed that he wouldn't be a man or fit in anywhere, especially when his strength was still weak.

You could be greedy, like Kahn.

You could also have a short temper, like Kahn.

But you must not be a yes-man, like Kahn.

Vail smiled with satisfaction. Even if Vail's sword technique talent wasn't exceptional, he had an assistant next to him. Although this assistant was temporarily unknown and still young, the future held promise. Moreover, in the uncertain journey ahead, he was undoubtedly the first person in Loguetown.

"Well, I accept this two hundred thousand. Since you have the means to sell intelligence, don't work for Reid anymore. Come to my swordhouse to live. Besides the two rooms next to me, as long as no one else lives there, you can pick one. Starting tomorrow, after dinner, come to me. I will explain Sword Technique issues."

Vail sighed in his heart. Experience counts, and Nice had seen his value. He didn't want Kahn, he saw a chicken that laid diamond eggs. The immediate reaction was to kill the chicken and take the diamonds.

Of course, Vail couldn't let Nice down and answered directly.

"Master, my mother used to be in the intelligence business, so I know a lot of secret information. It would be better to sell intelligence together."

"No hurry. Although selling intelligence is profitable, it's also dangerous. It must be done cautiously. It can't be done frequently, or it might cause trouble. Later, I will let other people represent both of us. I'll take 40%, and you take 50%. How does that sound?" Nice smiled and said to Vail.

"No, Master you take fivety." Vail didn't want to insist.

Nice didn't say a word, his silence was agreement.

"Well, well, Kahn hasn't been back to his hometown for a long time. It's time to let him go back and see his parents."

Nice said, closing his eyes as if in meditation.

When Vere saw Nice's approval, he walked out of the sword hall.

Slowly walking down the street, Vail felt that his teacher was not simple. Although he didn't know if his strength was formidable, he was quite reliable. In short, first, go back to Reed Road.

When he arrived at Reid's store, Reid was dealing with a large part in his hands that looked broken. Vail went over and said.

"Boss, I'm here to resign. Due to some personal reasons, I can't continue this job. Here are 50,000 Berries. Consider it repaying the debt and interest of the three thousand Berries. Thank you for your understanding. I still have something to do. Goodbye."

After speaking, Reid looked up, turned, and left, leaving Reid with his hand on the counter.

Reid didn't react for a moment. When he returned to his senses, Vere had gone far. Perhaps this young businessman didn't realize what he had missed, maybe it was the future of a great sword hero.
