Weapon seller in the world of magic

The next day, early in the morning, the Emperor learned of the matter as soon as he woke up and decided to stop leisurely traveling on a long route, teleporting to the Imperial Palace along with the second prince and Bai Xun. Song Tai went on his way toward his home.

Without wasting any time, he summoned all the ministers to the courtroom to discuss the matters of the powerful energy explosion, which occurred not so far away from the Imperial City where nearly 3.5 million citizens were living.

Of course, the deaths of four thousand villagers also cannot be ignored by the Emperor. However, as he doesn't have the strength to apprehend those criminals who were probably Demigods from the legends, all he can do is provide compensation to the direct family members of the victims.

The Queen consort felt guilty about the casualties that occurred because of her battle with the zheng but she was neither an upright person nor a fool to reveal the truth and surrender herself. Not to mention, for her, the most pressing issue is to admit the truth to her son. She was already bothered by it and doesn't want to think about the lives of the villagers. In her view, her husband is already dealing with it.

Hence, she kept her silence and behaved like herself as usual.

While this was going on in the Imperial city, there were emergency meetings held at other locations, specifically, the Iron Palm Sect, Tang Dynasty's Imperial palace, Church of Doom, and Mage guild's HQ in Leon Empire.

Even outside of the world, located in a higher plane of existence, the elders of the Dark Elf tribe of the Ixitus Empire were discussing the possible reasons behind the deaths of their members.

Now, every single one of those forces wanted to investigate the deaths of their elites and intends to turn the Phoenix Empire upside down for the results.

And the person, indirectly responsible for this mess, was happily continuing to lead his life as a weapon seller during the day while planning his next four weeks during the night.

And so, three days passed away in a blink of an eye.

Genesis Weapon Store, Imperial City;

The business is doing well during the past few days with 400-500 gold coins of worth transactions every day.

Chang Bo continued to do his job as an employee of the store.

Shang Jiao was attending daily at 6 o'clock and served as a store employee like Chang Bo from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

As for 6 to 8 in the morning, she was training with Mark.

Originally, his fiancée also wanted to train in firearms and he planned to teach her personally while leaving the princess to Alina.

But, to his surprise, Alina insisted on training Song Yue reasoning that her precise techniques will hurt the ego of a 6-circle realm expert and an imperial princess like Shang Jiao.

Mark bought Alina's excuse and handed her the training of Song Yue, disappointing the latter.

Meanwhile, the Lin clan's heiress once again resumed her sword practice with Allen.

With the training ground quite big, all three parties were comfortably doing their own thing without getting in the way of the other two.

Like the past three days, Mark returned to the store after finishing the morning training with his sister.

The store was opened at 9 o'clock and he became busy creating the weapons, leaving the operations of the store to his companions.

As Mark was going to upgrade the system soon enough, he thought it would be better to load the storage chamber with the firearms and bullets. Because of the time-consuming process of creating 9mm bullets, he stopped working on them for the moment and focused on creating bigger ones like the 7.62 mm, which he could create in bulk.

This move can make him lose a lot of customers as the majority of them operate revolvers, single-shot pistols, and semi-automatic handguns. But, he can't afford to think about those losses and work on something more productive like assault rifles.

It was around 3 o'clock in the afternoon. Sitting in one of the weapons' chambers, Mark was in the middle of creating more Ak-47s and Ak-203s, increasing the stock.

Knowing that there will be little to no customers at this time, the second prince visited the store. Chief Eunuch tagged along with him.

Mark stopped his work immediately upon being informed by Chang Bo and he got out of the room to meet his half-brother.

Shang Wen nodded as he calmly greeted Mark, "Lu Zhen." The chief eunuch, on the other hand, was all smiles as if he was in a great mood.

Mark returned the greetings with a smile, "Greetings, Your Highness, and Chief Eunuch Yang. Welcome to Genesis Weapon Store."

Without wasting the time with unnecessary pleasantries, the second prince opened up the matter directly, "We are here for a number of things. First, let's complete the transaction."

The One-million gold coins worth of order was supposed to be delivered a long time ago but the situation didn't permit Shang Wen to visit the store until now.

"200 Panzers – 100,000 gold coins

200 Ak-47 – 20,000 gold coins

100,000 rounds (7.62mm) – 100,000 gold coins

200 Grenade Launchers – 100,000 gold coins

10,000 grenades (40mm) – 50,000 gold coins

100 smoke grenades (radius: 100m) – 10,000 gold coins

300 Tear gas grenades (affected area: 500k cubic meters) – 30,000 gold coins

100 Molotov cocktail – 10,000 gold coins

500 Rocket launchers – 500,000 gold coins

1000 Warheads (110mm) – 50,000 gold coins

100 M99 – 25,000 gold coins

10,000 rounds (12.7mm) – 10,000 gold coins."

**

"Please check your items and all of them amounted to 1,005,000 gold coins. And those storage rings are complimentary. So, you don't need to return them. Thank you."

Mark had pre-arranged everything neatly in 21 gold-grade storage rings, long ago and was waiting to give him when an opportunity arrives. If not for the system's rule, he would have given it 6 days ago when he went to the campsite. But, he can only transact at the weapon store or deliver the weapons to the door if he receives the full advance payment.

Anyways, once the second prince checked the ordered items and gave the gold-grade ring filled with 1005 gold bars, each one weighing 10kg and worth 1000 gold coins. This wasn't the first time he received gold bars as a payment. Earlier for the auctioned items, the Emperor also paid the amount with gold bars too. So, he wasn't that surprised to see them.

Once the pending transaction was over, the second prince followed it up with a new order. It wasn't a lengthy list as the previous one. It is just one line. The Imperial Palace needed 100 more light combat aircraft. The cost of the order is about 5 million gold coins and is considered the first installment of their 100-million pledge.

Mark only needs 6 seconds to make them, but as he wants them to think that combat aircraft are too difficult to procure, he said that he will deliver them within 6 months of time.

The second prince was satisfied with the answer and then asked about the training. Mark promised that Allen will soon visit the Imperial Palace to inform them.

"Alright…" The second prince nodded and then looked at the person beside him. "Chief Eunuch Yang."
