“What if someone buys it and sneaks it to Another Sky-cla.s.s Island? You guys can’t check them one by one, can you?” Lin Yi asked with interest. Unless they had to search every single person when they left the East continent to prevent them from carrying any pills, that was impossible.

“It’s no use. Even if someone really did buy it and sneaked it out, they can’t sell it in public, because each of these restricted pills has a special seal and number on it. The Chambers of Commerce of the other sky-cla.s.s islands are not allowed to buy it in private, nor are they allowed to sell it in private, or they’ll be severely punished by the merchant Union. ” The waiter explained with a smile.

“I see.” Lin Yi nodded, but there was still the possibility of being smuggled. After all, as long as they didn’t sell it in public, it was fine as long as they did it in secret.

Of course, the risk of doing so was not small, because it was equivalent to offending the East Province and the merchant Union at the same time. Once it was found out, the consequences would be unimaginable. However, as long as the benefits were high enough, there would always be people who would take the risk. It was almost impossible to completely put an end to this kind of thing.

However, there was still a more difficult factor, which was the treasure s.h.i.+ps and battles.h.i.+ps coming and going! Not everyone could go to other islands.

As the two were talking, another waiter nearby was paying attention to them as well. He quickly ran over to report,”Shopkeeper, there’s a man who doesn’t seem to be from the East Province who’s asking about the limited sale of pills. He’s asking in detail. Maybe he wants to buy pills and smuggle them back. Do you want to keep an eye on him?”

“Oh, I’ll go and take a look myself.” The shopkeeper immediately stood up and came over. This kind of thing couldn’t be taken lightly. If someone was really smuggled out and was found out, not only would the smuggler himself be dead, but even the Chamber of Commerce that had the medicinal pill bought would be punished. After all, no one knew if the two sides had colluded, so they would definitely be beaten fifty times to warn the others.

The shopkeeper was led to Lin Yi by the waiter, and was stunned after taking a closer look. He looked at Lin Yi in disbelief before confirming his ident.i.ty,”Vice President Lin?”

Lin Yi turned around and was stunned,”Shopkeeper Chai? What are you doing here?”

It was none other than honest Chai, who Lin Yi had promoted in the South continent’s waters. What was this guy doing here instead of being the manager of the Xiao Luo branch in the South continent? was he transferred to the East continent?

Listening to the conversation between the two, the two workers at the side couldn’t help but look at each other. So this guy was actually an acquaintance of the shopkeeper, but which power was the Vice President? He couldn’t be from the Hong Chamber of Commerce, right? he remembered the names of those vice presidents during training. There didn’t seem to be any with the surname Lin?

“Vice President Lin, it’s really you! I didn’t dare to recognize you at first, and thought I was mistaken. I didn’t expect to really meet you here!” Honest Chai immediately revealed a look of pleasant surprise and immediately suggested,””It’s not convenient to talk and reminisce here, why don’t we go to the private room and have tea?”

“Alright,” he said. Lin Yi nodded, and the two of them sat down in the private room. Honest Chai quickly got someone to make a pot of high-quality spiritual tea, and Lin Yi continued to ask when no one was around, “You’re the manager here? In other words, you’ve been transferred to the East Province?”

“Yes, I was just transferred over in the last six months. I didn’t expect to see you here!” Honest Chai laughed in surprise, but he immediately slapped his head and said,”Look at my brain. Your Junior Sister Huang is at the morning stars Academy, so it’s only natural for you to come here.”

“Hehe, you’ve been transferred from the South continent’s Xiao Luo branch to the East continent’s Morning Star branch. Shopkeeper Chai, you’ve been promoted.” Lin Yi said, looking at him with a deep gaze.

Although they were both branch shopkeepers, one was in the South continent and the other was in the East continent. The difference in power and status between the two was like heaven and earth. As everyone knew, the East continent branch had always been the most popular and lucrative position, but in the chaotic South continent’s Sea area, it was a drudgery. The profits were not on the same level at all.

Back then, Wei Zhaotong had been transferred from being a branch’s Deputy Manager here to become the official manager of the South continent’s Xiao Luo branch. However, even so, this was still considered a promotion under the guise of a demotion, which made him quite depressed. The gap between the two could be imagined.

“You must be joking, Vice President. It’s all thanks to you. If it weren’t for you, we wouldn’t have been on the same side as the Qitian escort agency. If it weren’t for you, how could we have become the biggest partner of the new Overlord of the South continent escort agency?” Honest Chai explained with a smile as he poured tea for Lin Yi.

“Oh? Are you saying that Qitian escort agency contributed a lot?” Lin Yi blinked.

“That’s right, we’re all in the same boat. The rise of the Qitian escort agency has led to the rise of our black arc branch’s business. We’ve gradually expanded to all the South continent’s waters. If not for this, how could I have caught the eye of the higher-ups in the headquarters? Without outstanding performance, it’s impossible to be transferred to the East Province. ” Honest Chai nodded.

He was transferred to the East Province because of his outstanding performance? It sounded reasonable, but Lin Yi realized that it didn’t make sense after thinking about it.

One must know that in a place like the Hong Chamber of Commerce, one could not be promoted based on one’s performance alone, especially with honest Chai’s qualifications. He had only been a Branch Manager for less than two years and was suddenly transferred to the East Province. How could he be promoted so quickly?

It was obvious that the rich positions in the branches in the East continent were firmly controlled by the senior management of the headquarters. Without the approval of these senior management, honest Chai’s excellent performance in the South continent would be in vain. Unless Hong Zhong gave him full operation from the top, there was only a slim chance.

However, Hong Zhong, the Vice President, had been staying on the North Island all this time. He had basically been pushed out of the core circle of the headquarters. Even if he wanted to help honest Chai, it wouldn’t be that easy. The last time, honest Chai was able to become the manager of the black arc branch because of special circ.u.mstances. It was a chance encounter.

This led to a problem. How exactly did honest Chai get transferred to the East Province? there must be some hidden reason. It was definitely not as simple as his outstanding performance just now, unless he found another strong backer!

Honest Chai was someone who Lin Yi and hongzhong brought up-going to another sect without their consent was betraying them!

Lin Yi wasn’t a cruel person, but he wouldn’t go easy on a traitor. He had to get to the bottom of this. (To be continued.) ”
