Chapter 212 Aetherium Pavilion Scheme

Chapter 212 Aetherium Pavilion Scheme

A month later, in the Silverleaf Domain, Lothmire City:

In the Aetherium Pavilion, a wild commotion was unfolding.

Around the still-closed pavilion, there was already a massive line of people, hesitating to believe if the recent news was genuine.

Aetherium Pavillion, just release a rare spiritual plant catalog that they would sell today.

If it's just a few rare spiritual plants, they wouldn't even bother.

However based on the quantity alone, they were already so much, much less the variety of the rare spiritual plant for sale.

"Are you sure this isn't just another gimmick of the Aetherium Pavillion?" A passerby couldn't help but voice their skepticism, observing the long line.

"Who knows if it's real or not? Anyway, I'd rather waste a few hours than miss the chance," a man said with a hopeful expression.

One of the rare spiritual plants in the released catalog was exactly what he needed for his advancement.

Normally, obtaining such an item was beyond his reach.

Now that the opportunity was presented in front of him, how could he hesitate?

"That's right! Anyway, if Aetherium Pavilion fooled us, they would probably be done for."

"Where could Aetherium Pavilion have obtained such rare spiritual plants? It's intriguing."

"We don't know for sure. Maybe it's a secret stash kept in the Origin Domain?"

"It shouldn't be. How can a small Aetherium Pavilion get hold of such a thing?"

"Hahaha, the top Firms should be watching."

"Let's just wait. We don't even know if it's real."

Soon, the crowd calmed down as they eagerly waited.

All over the Silverleaf Domain, every branch of Aetherium Pavilion was surrounded by crowds.

The commotion was so significant that it even caught the attention of the top echelons from other domains.

After all, with such a significant quantity of resources involved, how could they not be curious?

Although they were aware of Aetherium Pavilion's connection to a core student of Origin Arcana Institute, they couldn't help but remain doubtful.

...

Meanwhile, in Shadow Hunter City, at the Aetherium Guild Headquarters:

The one who caused the commotion, Lux had just entered his guild.

This Guild Headquarter was built after obtaining permission from his cheap father.

Remembering the process he had gone through just to secure a piece of land for his guild, Lux couldn't help but grit his teeth.

Such a piece of land cost him another 1 percent income share.

It's just a piece of land, for heaven's sake.

Lux still teared up when he thought of this.

As for building the guild headquarters in another domain, which is cheaper, Lux didn't bother to consider that.

The Origin Domain is the center of the Arcane continent, and building the headquarters anywhere else would make Lux feel like he failed.

Furthermore, just the mana concentration in the Origin Domain is already worth it.

His subordinates have made leaps and bounds in advancement thanks to this investment.

Erasing thoughts of his cheap father from his mind.

Lux looked at the tens of thousands of monitors around.

This is all the surveillance footage of all the branches of Aetherium Pavilion in Silverleaf City.

With him are also thousands of managers who were sifted through tens of millions of applicants.

"Guild President, should we start the event?" Xavier, one of the vice guild presidents, asked.

Originally, Xavier was a successful businessman while he was still studying at Moonlight Academy.

He was also one of the richest men in the Moonlight Empire.

Due to Lux's recruitment, Xavier's original plan of expanding his business throughout the Moonlight Empire and beyond took a turn.

A more ambitious goal is a more exciting challenge for Xavier.

He decided to join Lux because he was the son of His Majesty.

He thought of using such a platform to reach his goal faster.

Who knew that Lux busted him in just an interview?

After a few exchanges with Lux, Xavier's contempt for such a rich kid turned into admiration.

Advanced arithmetic, management skills, prediction, a keen sense for the market—Lux had too much knowledge that Xavier didn't know.

To learn more from Lux, he gladly took the position of vice guild president.

Of course, his initial goal of being independent didn't change.

Xavier just took this chance to learn and experience more.

Looking at the guild leader frowning, sighing, and smiling in just a few seconds.

Xavier thought that Lux was worried about the performance of their plan.

"Then let the fun begin; it's time to earn the big bucks!" Lux excitedly said.

Upon hearing this, the others took their intercoms one by one and communicated with the various branches.

...

Aetherium Pavilion, Lothmire City Branch:

"Look, it's finally opening!"

"Finally, I've been waiting for hours."

"Let me in first; I've been here since yesterday."

The commotion grew louder as the door slowly opened.

Finally, two stewards came and greeted them at the door.

"Please come in orderly; we have enough for everyone."

The crowd also calmed down a little after this reminder, though they still didn't entirely believe it and squeezed around to get in first.

As the first individuals entered, they were greeted by various posters and sealed rare spiritual plants on display.

"It's real!"

"Wow, is that Jade Green Oak?"

"There is also the rare Blood Crystal Mushroom!"

"Hey, there is a rare aphrodisiac, Red Panax Ginseng!"

The crowd went wild upon realizing that everything in the news was real.

If the spiritual plants were not in sealed glass, they would have probably grabbed them by now.

"I want this Welwitschia Crystal Herb. How much is it?" An individual finally couldn't help but ask.

"A tier 5 rare spiritual plant, Welwitschia Crystal Herb. It would be 5 million magic crystals for this gentleman."

"Pack me two!" The man said excitedly.

"This gentleman, we are sorry. The Aetherium Pavilion only has a limited supply of spiritual plants."

"To buy more, you need to avail and upgrade your membership card," the service staff said apologetically.

"What? You need a membership card?" The crowd was a little shocked.

Originally, they would have liked to hurry and buy the spiritual plants they wanted before they sold out.

But what the service staff said suddenly slowed them down.

The Aetherium Membership card was implemented from the beginning.

The function of the card is to give its members various incentives and discounts.

What is different from other member cards from other shops and pavilions is that you need to pay for them yearly.

In most shops, as long as one spent enough money.

One could automatically get a membership card without any additional payment.

Aetherium Pavilion is the only one that dared to implement such an insane thing.

And like new things, such a scene failed miserably, with few availing a membership card.

Many even laughed at the greediness of such a pavilion, requiring a yearly payment just for a membership card.

"That, may I ask how much it is to avail a Membership card?" the man who wanted to buy two portions of the spiritual plant asked.

"For this gentleman to buy an unlimited portion of the tier 5 spiritual plant, you need a tier 5 membership card."

"And that would cost 10 million magic crystals," the service staff said with a smile.

"This—" The man was a little dumbfounded.

"Unfortunately, I don't have that kind of money."

"If I want to buy more, what can I do?" the man asked.

"It's simple. You can either pay with raw resources directly or wait a year to buy a similar tiered plant."

"You can pay with resources?"

"Of course, our Aetherium Pavilion accepts anything," the service staff smiled.

Their Pavilion was short of raw resources, so getting them as payment was worth it.

Few sell such raw resources, preferring to use them themselves or trade them for other raw resources.

After all, if you sell them, they would be very cheap compared to the finished product.

This is why Aetherium would rather accept raw resources than money.

As for buying raw resources from other firms, it would be very expensive, and the profit margin wouldn't be that great.

The crowd, upon hearing that they could use raw resources to purchase these rare spiritual plants, cheered.

As for the membership card, they just need two or three spiritual plants; why waste money on such a scam?

Soon, the crowd eagerly exchanged their resources to buy spiritual plants, fearing it would not be enough.

The various spies from other firms also began to move.

First is the to buy the scam-like membership card.

Unlike the others, they needed a huge quantity; using raw resources would not be worth it for such a purchase.

They can only grit their teeth and spend money on such an obvious scam.

Holding their freshly bought card, the spies from various firms laughed a little.

They thought of buying all the rare spiritual plants in Aetherium Guild and shifting the attention to them.

After that, all the work the Artherium Pavillion had done, was just a useless propaganda.

"I want all your supply of this tier 5 Rafflesia Flower," one of the spies said.

"I'm sorry, sir, your tier 5 membership only has a 100-purchase limit on it."

"If you want to purchase more, you might want to upgrade your card," the service staff said apologetically.

"What?! I thought you said it was unlimited earlier?!" The spy said with bloodshot eyes.
