Book 4: Near Blood - Chapter 160: Contac (1/2)
t
A small treehouse had popped up on a tree in Blue Swa inside the treehouse, concocting a newit to specifically deal with the Black Wind Lord
Even though he wasn’t afraid of the Black Wind Lord, that didn’tany preparations for hi down on the opponent yet tactically taking them seriously was the attitude every experienced warrior needed to have, even if they didn’t consciously realize it
Just as he was in the in Foran to heat up
Su Chen pulled it out It was actually the transiven hiet in contact with him?
And here? Had they come to the Beast Race’s territory?
Su Chen was extrein Forht shone forth froht Demon’s shocked and excited appearance Behind her stood shi+ Kaihuang and the others
“Thank the Heavens! We’ve finally found you,” Night Demon yelled happily
They were really quite exhausted froh he was only traversing through the border region, this ‘se, and so they were quite lucky to have run into hi? How in the world are you guys here?” Su Chen asked
“Ha, you’re asking uys ran here so fast and actually went to the Beast Race’s territory!” Night Deuys?” Su Chen was confused for a brief ht I ith the Heavenly Might Battalion?”
“Is that not the case?” Night Demon was taken aback
Su Chen s said, “So you really did separate froht Battalion”
He wasn’t surprised at all at this point They were having soup with Su Chen earlier that he was already beginning to suspect that Su Chen was on his own
Su Chen didn’t answer that question All he said was, “Why are you guys looking for me?”
“The Immortal Te said directly He understood Su Chen’s te around the bush
“Resources?” Su Chen squinted He also understood the Immortal Temple quite well and what kind of attitude they had
shi+ Mingfeng chuckled, “That’s right”
Su Chen replied, “Right now, you guys are in the area where resources are the most abundant The Beast Race has already left to deal with the Ferocious Race, so right now this place is at its quietest and safest”
“This place has quality while the Heavenly Might Battalion has quantity,” shi+ Mingfeng replied “We want both Actually, in ter up money, quantity is more important than quality”
The resources produced in the Beast Race’s territory were extremely rare and hard to come by, and by human territory standards, they were impossible to find Some of the on them, but because of this it was very hard to sell theh, no one would buy them, but if the price was too low then you would have lost out Evenwere the many resources that had never been seen before, as it was almost impossible to fully determine their properties
In comparison, the Ferocious Race had fewer resources, buton thee quantity and low price enerate a constant streaendary “priceless” items
The Immortal Temple would rather have the resources with a price than “priceless” items
In that sense, they had a completely opposite viewpoint co Su Chen could buy with money was not important; only these priceless resources were useful to him
And it was because both parties had completely different needs that there was a possibility for cooperation
As such, when Su Chen heard shi+ Kaihuang’s words, he laughed “You want the resources that the Heavenly Might Battalion plundered from the Ferocious Race’s territory? That’s fine, I can reply on behalf of the Heavenly Might Ars”
“Rations, water — whatever you need, please just let enerously”
Su Chen guffawed “Using coredients? Brother shi+, you’re playing a beautiful hand Did you think that the Heavenly Might Battalion and I would be incrediblyon using to exchange for a thousand-year-old stalk of Three-Bladed Grass? Two stones worth? And how much water for a Frosted Lotus Fruit? One or two pots?”
shi+ Mingfeng grinned sheepishly “Sending these supplies all the way over here wasn’t easy You should know that not everyone can cross the border as easily as you can”
“I know that So that’s your reasoning for trying to buy these resources for a thousandth of their selling price, right?”
shi+ Mingfeng replied, “If there weren’t any benefits to be had, ould be willing to take such a risk? If you don’t agree with the price, we can discuss further Howto use ten stone’s worth of rations to trade for a single stalk”
A thousand-year-old stalk of Three-Bladed Grass could fetch thousands of Origin Stones in Long Sang Country, while one Origin Stone could buy at least four stones worth of rations
The gap between these prices was truly shocking
Even so, shi+ Mingfeng was confident that the Heavenly Might Battalion wouldn’t have much choice in the h to feed fifteen soldiers for a day, but this Three-Bladed Grass wouldn’t be able to give a single soldier even a mouthful of food The Ferocious Race’s territory was exceptionally desolate, and the Heavenly Might Battalion’s ability to harvest resources should be lih food to sustain theht be able to sustain them for a while, but not forever
Of course, he had otiate with hile it down to, the Immortal Temple would still be able to make at least a hundred tienerous,” Su Chen laughed “But I believe that General Li and the others wouldn’t agree to such a price”
“Howasked
Su Chen shook his head “It’s not athem for rations in the first place”
“What?” shi+ Mingfeng was stunned
Using these rations to exchange for spiritual herbs was the backbone of the I With this as the foundation of their trade, no matter hoide Su Chen opened his mouth, the I or defend while retreating Using coe for rare materials meant that the Ireement was reached
However, Su Chen had rejected this proposal with a single sentence
