Chapter 749: Cooperation! (1/2)

The fish had taken the bait!

“A batch? Not enough.” Bai Xiaofei frowned. What he wanted was not Blood Diamonds, but a clue that could lead to the origin of Blood Diamonds!

“Of course there won’t be only one batch. It’s just a stepping stone for us to start our business. Once you have enough power and credibility, we can begin a fruitful cooperation. The area of Starnet Academy is a free zone with only a few small countries that don’t have the strength to cooperate with us at all. Therefore, trading of Blood Diamonds here has not yet been fully exploited, and what we lack is a powerful partner like you.”

Old Song said it earnestly, but what he thought was another thing. The mission given to him was to take root in this area and monitor the movement of Starnet. Making money was only secondary. However, where would he get the capital to eat and play if he didn’t make any money?

“You don’t have to worry about our strength. I just fear that you can’t provide us with enough goods. Moreover, the goal of our merchant group is not just this area. We also have branches in Ethereal, Violethorn, and several other kingdoms and dukedoms,” Bai Xiaofei paused as his eyes grew sharp. “Are you capable of this level of cooperation?”

Old Song gulped with difficulty. If what Bai Xiaofei said was true, then he had hit the jackpot this time!

“Illusion Demon Merchant Group? The one that suddenly became famous recently?” asked Liu Heng in surprise as he suddenly remembered something.

“You know Brother Bai’s merchant group?” Old Song turned to look at Liu Heng.

“If it’s that Illusion Demon group that I heard of, then Brother Bai did not exaggerate. It had been operating quietly, and when it came out, its branches already appeared in half of the northern border area and occupied a big market.” Liu Heng nodded and looked at Bai Xiaofei, waiting for his confirmation.

“There is only one Illusion Demon,” Bai Xiaofei confirmed.

With that, Old Song and Liu Heng completely put down their guard. As long as he’s not from Starnet!

“Brother, the batch in our hands can be given to you at any time, but if you want to take our cooperation to the next level, we need to report to the higher-ups first. It will take some time, but please rest assured that we will do our best!” promised Old Song urgently as if he feared their god of wealth would run away. After all, he and Liu Heng weren’t the only ones in charge of opening up the Blood Diamond market.

Bai Xiaofei began to gradually lead to his ultimate goal. Although he was very careful, the expressions of Old Song and Liu Heng still changed.

“Brother Bai, is this really necessary?” asked Old Song hesitantly.

“Our group has started to see suppression from the eight major merchant groups. Not long ago, we were even schemed against by the Amethyst Merchant House. Do you think it is necessary or not?” Bai Xiaofei refused to budge, rendering Old Song speechless.

“Alright, we will report it to our higher-ups, but as I’ve said, it will take time,” Old Song gave himself some leeway. Bai Xiaofei wanted to investigate them, and they also needed time to check up on him.

“We will be staying at the Fragrant House for about a month. I wish for our desired cooperation.”

Bai Xiaofei extended his hand and Old Song hurriedly shook it.
