Yang Mingkai had suddenly become reserved and even changed the way he addressed Lin Yuan, so the latter involuntarily said, “Big Brother Yang, you are my senior, just call me Young Brother.”
While listening to Lin Yuan, Yang Mingkai observed his frank expression. Yang Mingkai was a forthright and straightforward person, so he patted on Lin Yuan’s shoulder and said, “Haha, I also feel comfortable calling you Young Brother.”
Lin Yuan chuckled. “Big Brother Yang, you said you wanted more Elite Usneas. I do have them, but I wonder how many more pots you need.”
Lin Yuan had already planned to stay at home to increase his spirit qi occupation rank to D-rank after delivering the fey to Chu Ci. Therefore, he was definitely going to evolve plenty of feys. 2
It was about time to produce more Elite Usneas.
Yang Mingkai carefully extended one finger. “Over 70 pots, adding to a total of 100 pots. Does Young Brother think it is possible?”
Before Lin Yuan could talk, Yang Mingkai quickly supplemented another statement. “Young Brother, your Elite Usneas are of Elite quality. If you sell them on the Star Web, you can get around 30,000 Federation dollars per pot. I cannot allow Young Brother to suffer a loss, so I’ll add 3,000 Federation dollars for each pot. Do you think 33,000 Federation dollars for each pot is acceptable?”
Yang Mingkai immediately offered the highest price in his mind. In fact, the price was a little lower than the high transaction prices on the Star Web. However, Yang Mingkai offered a reasonable price, which was the average price for Elite/Elite Usneas.
Yang Mingkai was going to open another fey breeding base, and that would require considerable expenditure.
33,000 Federation dollars for each of the 100 pots was already the highest price that Yang Mingkai could offer.
Lin Yuan pondered for a moment and felt that the offer was reasonable. If he had to sell them on the Star Web, he would need to waste a lot of effort. Also, instead of wasting his time, he would be able to evolve more pots of Usneas.
“Big Brother Yang, your price is acceptable. However, if you need 100 pots of Usneas, you might have to give me seven days before you can collect them.” 4
Lin Yuan would need two days to visit Chu Ci’s school and return. He required slightly more than an hour to evolve each pot of Usnea. After deducting the 20+ pots of Usneas that were already available, Lin Yuan would need around 70+ hours to evolve the rest.
Thus, Lin Yuan could only have them around seven days at the earliest.
“Seven days?”
Yang Mingkai was even more confident that a Creation Master was backing Lin Yuan. In addition, Lin Yuan seemed to have an extremely close relationship with the Creation Master. Otherwise, it was impossible to deliver such a huge order.
Seven days was simply too fast. Under normal circumstances, other suppliers would find it impossible to deliver even if they were given two months.
It was definitely a divine method!
Lin Yuan nodded as seven days was already his limit. Lin Yuan thought that Yang Mingkai felt it was rather slow, but Yang Mingkai actually felt it was too fast.
At that moment, the second floor’s door was gently opened before it was carefully closed again. A small figure rushed down the stairs quickly and pounced into Lin Yuan’s embrace.
After a “meow”, it held Lin Yuan’s hand and said, “Yuan, Chimey is still sleeping. Chimey is a lazy bum. Genius is already awake, Genius is diligent.”
Lin Yuan reached out to gently scratch Genius’ nose. Genius let out a sneeze with a ‘meoow’ before sitting obediently in Lin Yuan’s embrace while feeling content.
When Genius had come to this home, it had been rather afraid of strangers. But now, Genius was already used to it.
Housekeeping beasts were feys that each federation citizen possessed, and Yang Mingkai wasn’t an exception either. However, Yang Mingkai’s housekeeping beast had perished during the alien insects’ invasion.
“Young Brother, your housekeeping beast is brilliant. This is the first time I see such a beautiful housekeeping beast.”
When Genius heard Yang Mingkai’s comment, it took a glance at Yang Mingkai before burying its head into Lin Yuan’s chest fondly.
“I feel that Genius is also the most incredible and cutest Hundred Questions Beast!” While speaking, Lin Yuan rubbed Genius’ silverish grey fur, which was a form of approval and acknowledgment.
When Genius had been brought there, it had just been a small abandoned fellow with a messy fur that no one wanted. Despite that, Genius broke the norm for Hundred Questions Beasts and became the first Normal Hundred Questions Beasts in history.
Moreover, this was just the starting point and not the ending point. As Genius’ contractor and partner, whenever someone praised Genius, Lin Yuan felt proud of Genius.
Subsequently, Lin Yuan and Yang Mingkai conducted the trade, a total of 23 pots of Elite/Elite Usneas for 759,000 Federation dollars. 2
After deducting the 350,000 Federation dollars for the Elite Web-Spraying Spiders and Sharp Rock Bull, Yang Mingkai used the Star Web account to transfer 409,000 Federation dollars to Lin Yuan.
Yang Mingkai originally wanted to transfer the deposit for the remaining 77 pots of Usneas to Lin Yuan, which was 10% of the cost, but Lin Yuan rejected the idea.
Lin Yuan stated that the money for the remaining Usneas would be settled together when Yang Mingkai returned to collect the goods.
After adding the 20,000 Federation dollars that Lin Yuan already had in his Star Web account, he now had 429,000 Federation dollars. This was an amount of wealth that Lin Yuan wouldn’t dare to imagine that he would possess.
Lin Yuan helped Yang Mingkai shift the Usneas from the rack onto the back of the Crowned Fire Salamander, waiting in the alley. After sending off Yang Mingkai, Lin Yuan immediately returned to the store.
Lin Yuan had a very tight schedule, and he had to heal this Elite/Epic Sharp Rock Bull. After healing the Sharp Rock Bull, he would need to rush to Chu Ci’s school. 3
Lin Yuan had money now and would only be earning more money in the future. Money would no longer be a problem for their family. Hence, Lin Yuan was planning to rent a Bronze avian fey. This way, he would be able to cut down the seven-hour journey into a one-hour trip.
Lin Yuan approached Ostrich Logistics’ spirit storage box and released the severely injured Sharp Rock Bull that was lying in it. When the Sharp Rock Bull was released, it immediately occupied most of Lin Yuan’s store space.
This Sharp Rock Bull was only a calf, and its size wasn’t even two meters, which meant that it was about two years old.
An adult Sharp Rock Bull’s size would be at least 2,5 meters in length.
However, this Sharp Rock Bull had two shattered horns, and its body had tiny wounds that would shock anyone.
Lin Yuan was looking at the Sharp Rock Bull while it was also looking at him. The Sharp Rock Bull was apparently a little nervous and was waving its head while feeling uneasy.
Lin Yuan carefully placed his hand on the Sharp Rock Bull’s broken horn and slowly transferred his spirit qi to the Sharp Rock Bull.
When the Sharp Rock Bull felt the spirit qi, it slowly let down its guard. An Elite fey was rather spiritual and could feel Lin Yuan’s friendly intent, so it lay there obediently.
While Lin Yuan was rapidly absorbing spirit qi, he was also rapidly injecting it into the Sharp Rock Bull.
Ten minutes later, the tiny wounds on the Sharp Rock Bull had gradually recovered due to Lin Yuan’s channeled spirit qi.
After an hour or so, the Sharp Rock Bull continued to lay there in a weak state. All of a sudden, it let out an extremely painful ‘mooing’ sound. 1
