Chapter 6. Volatile Units of Measurement
Following Ren Qingquan's words, the coachman changed his path and entered a different path from what he used to visit Black Flame Tavern from the Ren family's house.
While on the way, Ren Qingquan opened the system map while using [Scan] on every item and person he could see. [Scan] is extremely important, and Ren Qigquan wants to have the good habit of scanning everything.
When staring at the system map, several blue dots caught his attention as they were moving at a pretty high speed. Based on their speed, they might soon arrive near the carriage.
With that in mind, Ren Qingquan looked outside the window and could see someone wearing a black robe being chased by several city guards.
As Ren Qingquan used [Scan] on the black-robed person and one of the city guards, the following panels appeared.
[Human: Ren Qingchen, unable to devour

Looking at the system panel, Ren Qingquan feels a mix of gloating, confusion, and shock.
'Just what does Ren Qingchen do to be chased by so many people? Well, I am not a nosy person, and it's not my problem, so I am too lazy to care.'
Looking at Ren Qingchen's Realm it basically solidified his position as a main character in Ren Qingquan's mind.
Increasing his martial arts realm by two levels in two days is wild. It requires a fortuitous encounter, a genius talent, or a mix of both.
Furthermore, Ren Qingchen seems to have a powerful movement technique, as he could escape from a group of guards in the martial master realm.
No matter from which angle, he is blessed with a huge amount of luck. The only mystery is what kind of main character Ren Qingchen is.
Before Xiao Ling could say anything, Ren Qingquan asked her.
"Could you ask my father where I could purchase several hundred stones worth of steel, iron, and bronze?"
Hearing the sudden request, Xiao Ling was dumbfounded but replied nevertheless.
"I will ask the master immediately."
As Xiao Ling went to report the news to Ren Shiluo, Ren Qingquan finally arrived at his room.

Ren Shiluo's study room
Xiao Ling arrived with a knock at the door and an answer from Ren Shiluo. She entered the room and reported to Rent Shiluo.
"Sir, young master Qingquan wished to purchase several hundred stones's worth of metal. I have asked the coachman, and he said the young master got that idea after he visited Black Flame Tavern. Should I ask his reason for purchasing those metals?"
Ren Shiluo stopped reading the documents and answered with a smile.
"There is no need, someone probably invited him to do some business. At most, he might get duped once or twice, which might be a good thing. Just tell him to be careful during his business endeavors."
Listening to that word, Xiao Ling left and went to Ren Qingquan's room.

Ren Qingquan's room
Xiao Ling finally returned with some good news.
"Master said he could help you use the family's connection to buy it. He also asked you to be careful so as not to get tricked in business."
Listening to Xiao Ling's words, Ren Qingquan guessed his father might be misunderstanding something, but he was too lazy to correct it. The misunderstanding is beneficial to him anyway.
"Alright"
Now, with material for his secret plan ready, Ren Qingquan went to visit the library to continue his work of scanning the books on the first floor, just in case there was some important secret hidden inside. He definitely doesn't store those novels to read. Especially not the one about demons with illustrations included.
In just two hours, Ren Qingquan finished his scanning work and returned to his room. Looking at the sky that is getting darker, after having a bath and changing the bandage on his wound, Ren Qingquan slept amidst excitement.
After all, tomorrow his wound will be healed, and he could practice martial arts!
