Chapter 74: Emily's Father
However just as Li Wei entered the Adventures All-in-one shop, he got a question thrown at him.
"Brother Li!! You are here again, but why are you alone? Did you fight with sisters?" Emily asked hurriedly, her expression filled with concern after watching him come alone.
'No, it can't be. The Harem of Brother Li can't and mustn't fail,' she thought, deciding herself.
Li Wei saw her concerned expression and felt something off; nevertheless, he answered her.
"No, I didn't fight with them. They are at home training their skills," he replied.
"So that's it. Wait, did you say a home? You bought a house!!" Emily exclaimed with wide eyes.
"Yes, I bought a normal villa. Anyway, do you have any skill crystals and skill books that can hide the status?" Li Wei inquired, not telling her too much about the villa or she would ask tons of questions.
"Of course, we have, Brother Li. Do you need any other useful skills? Look, here is the list; you can choose from it," Emily replied with a nod, taking out the list.
"But, Brother Li, you have to take me to your villa today. I want to see it," she requested with big eyes and a pitiful expression.
"No, I have a lot of things to do today, so I can't take you there," Li Wei answered, rejecting her while skimming through the skill list.
"Umm," Emily pouted at him.
'Just wait; I will find it by myself. I can't go outside the city, but hehe, inside the city, no one will stop me,' she thought, making her plans to sneak into his villa.
Li Wei, who didn't know her thoughts, decided on the skills.
"Give me Fake Status, Concealed Weapon Mastery, Navigation, Swimming, Climbing, Signal Creation, and Telepathy. Give me five each, and all must be master tier," he asked for the skills he needed.
These skills were available easily and can be used by every class.
For the class-related skills, he didn't decide immediately and wanted to buy later.
Hearing him, Emily nodded and asked the servant girl to bring the skill crystals and looked at Li Wei with a smirk.
"Brother Li, do you need the skill Sensual Massage Techniques? It's very good and all girls likes it" she inquired in a low voice looking at him.
'Hehe, with these skills, sisters will definitely not let go of him and his harem won't fail,' she thought with underlying motives.
Listening to her, Li Wei sighed.
"Why does a kid like you know something like this, and of course, I need it. Give it to me; I will transfer the money instantly," he replied with a hushed tone, looking around with a sneaky expression.
Emily beamed happily hearing him and opened a locked drawer with her hairpins, taking out a skill book.
"Here, it's for 1 million coins," she whispered, giving him the skill book.
She did a lot of shady deals like this, of course, with women who came to shop, and it was her first time giving it to the opposite sex, but for his harem, she decided to sacrifice her reputation a little.
While Li Wei became speechless, watching her do it in a familiar way.
'Is it really okay for her to know this, and why does she look too familiar with it?' he murmured in his mind with doubt.
Nevertheless, he nodded at her and transferred the amount without hesitation and his the skill in the item box.
After a few minutes, the servant girl came with skill crystals in her hands.
"Brother Li, here are all your skill crystals; it will cost 17.5 million coins. And now, you have to take me to your villa," Emily requested again with hope.
After all, she did a big favour just now.
However, Li Wei shook his head as he transferred the money.
"I am not going home now, but I want to meet your father. Where is he?" he asked; this is the real purpose he came here.
"Hmm, my father? He is on the third floor. If you want to meet him, I can take you there," Emily replied with a puzzled face.
'Is he going to ask for my hand in marriage?' she thought, her imagination running wild.
"Okay, then take me there," Li Wei nodded and followed her to the third floor, where he heard the sound of hammering metals just a little away from him.
"Father, Brother Li came here to meet you," Emily informed directly, opening the office door without care.
"Emily, how many times do I have to say you just can't barge into my room without waiting for my answer?" a handsome man with blonde hair chided her and looked at Li Wei.
"Li Wei, it's been a while since we met. Why don't you take a seat, and Li Xin didn't come with you?" he asked after seeing him alone.
"Uncle Loid, Li Xin is at home, and I came here to request something from you," Li Wei stated his purpose.
"A request? Yes, sure, you can tell; I will help you as much as I can," Loid replied without hesitation as Emily sat on his lap while reading a few documents on the table, like a working boss.
"Uncle Loid, my request is that you to teach me blacksmithing," Li Wei stated his request.
He could've found other blacksmiths, but there was no one more popular than Uncle Loid in this city. Why would he let the chance go if he can learn easily?
"Huh, so it's just this? Of course, I can teach you. Let's go to the workshop. I also have to craft a weapon for a client, and you can watch my crafting to learn few things. Then I will guide you later," Loid answered, making Emily stand up from his lap.
"Yes, Uncle Loid, I don't have problems with that," Li Wei nodded with excited eyes.
He wanted to learn the blacksmith skill so he could craft weapons for himself and his party, or if he kept buying them from others at every level, then even billions wouldn't help him.
As for selling them, no way; he wouldn't let the equipment used by Li Xin get into the hands of others, even if they are girls.
He also wanted to craft a few things for her to make a gift, and it would be best if he could learn the skills of the best person in the city.
Watching his excited eyes, Loid shook his head and led Li Wei and Emily (who forcefully tagged along) to the workshop just ahead of his office.
*Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!*
The sounds of hammering echoed, reaching everyone's ears as soon as they got inside the workshop.
"Huh?" Li Wei became stunned looking at the workshop.
He thought it would be small, but it was as big as twelve rooms where thirty people were hammering metals in front of their magical furnace.
"Hehe, Li Wei, this is just a normal workshop; the real one is still inside," Loid talked proudly, looking at his stunned expression.
Li Wei, however, didn't care about it and directly activated Eternal Learning skill while adding more attributes to his intelligence.

'Level 30 advanced skills!!' Li Wei became stunned looking at all the skills that were level 30.
'Damn, they must have spent all money on the skills,' he cursed, thinking about this.
He just leveled up his 5 skills to level 30 while learning 8 new skills, and all of them were advanced level 30 skills.
"Brother Li, let's go," Emily reminded him, nudging his clothes with her little hands.
"Ah, yes, let's go, Emily," Li Wei nodded, coming out of his thoughts, and followed uncle Loid with Emily to his workshop. your-NovelFire-source
He once again became stunned because this workshop was filled with rare and all kinds of materials.
"Haha, this is my metal collection. I even have some C and B level metals that are hard to find in this city," Loid boasted again with a proud expression and lit up the furnaces.
"Just sit there; the room temperature will go high but will not affect too much. As long as you watch me, you will understand some basics, and then you can also give it a try," Loid instructed, pointing at the bench a little away from him.
Li Wei nodded hurriedly; he is just here to watch and do nothing. He then glanced at the bookshelf a little away from them.
He wanted to read it but decided to ask later and sat on the bench.
"Brother Li, why do you want to learn blacksmithing?" Emily asked curiously, sitting beside him.
"Hmm, I like to learn many things, and also, I want to craft a few tools," Li Wei replied when he suddenly felt Emily leaning on his body with a lazy expression, but he didn't care.
"So you want to craft something. Do you know my mother is a Jewelcrafter? You can also learn from her; it will not be useful, but you can do it more beautifully if you want to give the gifts to sisters," she mentioned with a yawn.
"I will think about it," Li Wei replied with a nonchalant expression, but he already decided he was going to learn it.
