Chapter 293: The Choice of Members
The completely jade-textured wood, a kind of luxury item that represented the level of wealth, often had more of a symbolic significance than actual significance.
Although each kind of them was very popular on the market, the price varied greatly—the beauty of each variety of this completely jade-textured wood laid in the eyes of the beholder.
However, the rarer ordinary wood would be more highly sought after by the affluent families after being completely jade-textured.
Take Gao Feng as an example. The best wood he had seen in Lin Yuan’s mansion was the completely jade-textured red sandalwood and agarwood.
As compared to the agarwood, which was more brittle, the completely jade-textured red sandalwood was an excellent choice for both carving and making decorations and furniture pieces.
Lin Yuan replied, “I don’t have any completely jade-textured red sandalwood, but the wood I have is not worse than that.”
In order to maximize the gathering of resources in the Spirit Lock spatial zone, apart from choosing agarwood, which he liked, he had chosen five kinds of rare wood. They were the most expensive and most highly sought after by wealthy people.
When Gao Feng heard Lin Yuan say that, he immediately became interested. Since Lin Yuan had said that these five types of completely jade-textured rare wood would not be worse than the red sandalwood, then it must be so.
However, less than 15 kinds of rare woods were no worse than the completely jade-textured red sandalwood.
Gao Feng could not help but get excited and think about whether there would be the one that he wanted to get his hands on.
When Gao Feng had seen so many completely jade-textured furniture in Lin Yuan’s mansion, it had made him feel as though he had entered a golden mine.
Furthermore, the furniture had not been carved yet. This made Gao Feng understand what was called low-key luxury.
After Gao Feng returned to the Gao family’s residence in Wind Mist City and saw the furniture made from completely jade-textured wood and designed by Class 5 Spirit Craftsmen, he suddenly felt they were a little rustic.
“Brother, can you tell me what completely jade-textured rare wood you have there?”
Lin Yuan replied at the other end of the phone, “I only have the yellow rosewood, wenge, ebony, green elm, and phoebe zhennan.”
Lin Yuan was straightforward regarding the completely jade-textured wood he had.
If he wanted to trade these rare pieces of wood, there was no more suitable power than an affluent family like the Gao family. Only such an affluent family had an extreme desire for the completely jade-textured rare wood, as well as a lot of good stuff.
Lin Yuan could exchange these completely jade-textured rare pieces of wood for the resources he wanted and was in short supply from the Gao family.
Gao Feng slapped his thighs in excitement on the other end of the phone.
A large part of why Gao Feng came to Lin Yuan to buy the completely jade-textured wood was that he wanted to give his grandfather a present during New Year’s.
When Gao Feng had visited Lin Yuan’s mansion the other time, he could not distinguish whether the completely jade-textured wood was top-quality.
Although he could distinguish whether the wood had become jade-textured, he was not proficient in this area.
However, after Gao Feng had returned home and studied the piece of completely jade-textured agarwood that Lin Yuan had given him, he discovered it was actually some top-quality goods that were five times heavier.
Gao Feng had slapped his thighs in happiness just now after hearing Lin Yuan’s words because his grandfather loved the green elm the most among the completely jade-textured wood.
Even his grandfather, the Gao family’s Old Master, had never found a few larger pieces of completely jade-textured green elm.
The price of completely jade-textured wood depended on how jade-textured it was and its size. The bigger the wood, the bigger the object it could be made into, and the rarer it would be.
The reason Gao Feng’s grandfather had not found large pieces of completely jade-textured green elm was not only because it was too rare.
The more important reason was that when the green elm became jade-textured, it would easily break with an uneven concentration of spirit qi.
Gao Feng remembered the largest piece of completely jade-textured green elm his grandfather had received had been carved into a picture of thousands of mountains and hidden peaks.
He had a deep impression of that. Back when he was young, he had once not eaten properly and touched it with his spoon. His father had beaten him up for that.
When his grandfather had seen his father beating him, he had given his father two slaps on the neck. Gao Feng still remembered the scene of his grandfather picking him up and coaxing him not to cry. Upon learning of what Gao Feng had done, his grandfather had been so heartbroken that he went to check whether this completely jade-textured green elm carved into thousands of mountains with hidden peaks had any marks on it.
He knew that his grandfather was extremely good to him and always spoiled him. Therefore, after hearing Lin Yuan had the completely jade-textured green elm, Gao Feng wanted to buy it no matter what.
When Lin Yuan heard Gao Feng’s excited voice, the corners of his mouth raised. The more Gao Feng liked something, the more good stuff he could get in exchange.
“Brother, where are you? I’ll find you in person!”
Lin Yuan raised his brows and answered, “You are quite idle.”
Upon hearing that, Gao Feng’s happy and excited expression turned bitter.
“That’s not true. I’m idle to death! Everyone else has gone to participate in the S Tournament, but nobody wants me yet! I watch live-streams on Star Web every day at home. I’m bored to death!”
Lin Yuan replied, “I’m not at home right now. I’ll send you the address after I hang up.”
After chatting for a while, Lin Yuan hung up the phone. Since Gao Feng wanted to come over, he must also want to take a look at the quality of those completely jade-textured wood he had.
Thus, Lin Yuan was in a hurry to tell him what he wanted in exchange. It would not be too late to do so when Gao Feng came over.
Lin Yuan’s heart thumped when he heard Gao Feng mention the Guild Alliance’s S Tournament. Before he took part in the Radiance Hundred Sequence’s selection, it would happen to be the end of the S Tournament.
Every year, three months after the end of the Guild Alliance’s S Tournament, it would be the time for the application of new guild clubs.
Hence, it was time for Lin Yuan to prepare for his guild club. If he missed these three months, he would have to wait until next year to apply for a guild club.
It was easy to apply for a guild club in the Radiance Federation. One could apply as long as they had money. Many guild clubs would apply for registration in the Guild Alliance.
However, only a very small number of them were qualified to take part in the S Tournament. This was because most of the guild clubs did not even have the chance to get through the elimination round and be qualified.
They could only rely on the strength of their team to fight for the chance to take part.
Lin Yuan could not help but think about the problem of choosing the members of the main team after he set up his guild club. At present, there was only one suitable teammate—Liu Jie.
