My experience of grinding in another world

Chapter 268 Negotiation
Three days in a row.

Chen Mu would spend his days fishing and chopping trees, and his nights flying back to Pengyue Mountain to sleep and cultivate.

In the evening, after dinner, Chen Mu went into his tent early.

"I've already transmigrated, and I still have to go to work on time? Seriously..."

I come at five in the morning and leave at nine at night, without a break. This is even more miserable than being an office worker in my previous life!
"Never mind, it'll be fine once we finish clearing the land," Chen Mu sighed.

He actually wanted to be a wild monk, unsupervised and untamed.

However, not only can one not find the secret techniques to inherit, but one also faces danger.

Chen Mu glanced at the magical power that had already filled more than half of the jade seed, and felt a slight joy in his heart.

Although flying back every day is troublesome and consumes a lot of magic power, it's worth it because I can use the Exquisite Jade Disc without restraint and quickly condense magic power.

Moreover, it can also avoid the danger of being attacked by strange beasts at night.

"Isn't it just going to and from get off work? Didn't we do the same thing in our past lives?"

"And I even commute by plane. This treatment, wow..."

"The key is that it can also increase proficiency." Chen Mu looked at the gray wall in front of him with a smile.

Mastery: 2036/10000/Tier 1;
Since entering the Tongtianhe Lower Temple, I have hardly used this skill.

Now that I'm constantly commuting, I actually have more time to grind experience points.

"It's just a bit wasteful of white jade."

Since using the exquisite jade plate to accumulate magical power, the speed at which the white jade disappears has increased again!

"I wonder how things went with Shang Huan?" Chen Mu activated the Heart-to-Heart Thread to contact Shang Huan.

He came to his senses after a short while.

"Not satisfied with the profits? You want to talk to me personally?" Chen Mu frowned.

Mulinglang is inexpensive.

The tree heart can be found anywhere, and the spirit elixir doesn't cost more than a few white jade coins.

Only the Wood Spirit Talisman and its crafting techniques are worth some money.

If you calculate it this way, a 20% profit from a Wood Spirit is almost nineteen white jade coins!

You're not satisfied with just a nominal title?!
greedy!
Too greedy!

Old Hao also said that Mo Wuzhou was a good person, but how come he's like this with me...?

The key is that he finds it very difficult to refuse.

Mo Wuzhou already knows about Mu Linglang. Even if he doesn't sell, Mo Wuzhou will force him to.

They might even directly take action and seize the refining formula!
Chen Mu narrowed his eyes.

"The Secret Technique of Condensing the Apertures..."

If it weren't for the need to purchase the Condensation Technique, he wouldn't have even thought about saving money.

As a result, he didn't even know what the Condensation Technique was, which led to a big problem.

"I just want to collect some white jade."

"It's alright as long as things are peaceful and stable."

"If one is truly insatiable..."

……

Two days later, late at night.

At the foot of Pengyue Mountain, in a dense forest.

Mo Wuzhou stood under a big tree, admiring the starry sky through the swaying leaves overhead.

Shang Huan, who was standing next to him, seemed somewhat anxious.

If things go well tonight, all will be well. But if they can't reach an agreement and things turn into a fight, my small frame... ugh...

"You've finally decided to come over. Why don't you use your ghostly magic to check a few more times? What if there's an ambush around?" Mo Wuzhou's face was stiff and cold as he stared at the figure emerging from the woods and said in a sarcastic tone.

Chen Mu stared at Mo Wuzhou's stiff and cold face.

There's just no way to connect that face with that plaintive voice.

Is there something wrong with this person's face?

Chen Mu shook his head, deciding not to think about it anymore. He began to try his best to play the role of Gongsun Sheng.

"There's no need," Chen Mu said gently. "I trust Senior Brother Mo's character."

Mo Wuzhou couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"You haven't forgotten, have you? I have the secret technique of spiritual eyes, I can see your black smoke!"

Do you still trust my character?

I'm not blind.

Those plumes of black smoke have been circling the dense forest for almost half an hour!
Was he taking a stroll?!
"I heard that Senior Brother Mo is not very satisfied with the profit-sharing plan," Chen Mu asked softly.

"Extremely dissatisfied!" Mo Wuzhou snorted coldly. Chen Mu narrowed his eyes.

"How many does Senior Brother Mo want?"

Mo Wuzhou put his hands behind his back and said, "One hundred white jade for each Wood Spirit Boy. Do you know how big a deal that is?"

"The General Affairs Bureau, the Inspection Bureau, the Scripture Transmission Bureau—anyone with a bit of power would be green with envy!"

"You've been using my name, so all this pressure from all sides will have to be borne by me."

"Even when I encounter those few powerful ones, I still have to share a portion of the profits!"

"Take our young supervisor Liang for example. He's a master who's just begun to condense his internal energy."

"If he asks for the money, do you think I should give it to him or not?" Mo Wuzhou sneered.

Is this how you try to get rid of me with a 20% profit margin that I didn't even know about?
no way!

"How much does Senior Brother Mo want?" Chen Mu asked again, his voice still gentle, but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

This Senior Brother Mo is going to ask for an exorbitant amount!

Inside the jade seed, the Five Ghosts Moving Mountain Incantation Talisman slowly flew into the Yuanfu, while the Sand-Containing Technique Talisman floated beside it, waiting for its command.

If they can reach an agreement, that's fine; if they can't, they shouldn't let Mo Wuzhou leave so easily.

He didn't want to fight. But looking at the other person's greedy face, he was afraid...

"I've worked so hard, and for every Wood Spirit I sell, you should give me at least twelve white jade coins!" Mo Wuzhou said with a tense face.

Sure enough... they actually dared to ask for twelve pieces of white jade!

Five ghosts... huh?!
Twelve white jade coins?

Is there really such a good thing?!
Chen Mu suddenly looked up and stared at Mo Wuzhou.

"What? You think it's too much? Let me tell you, it's not too much at all!"

"Don't think I don't know how much you've spent! I know a lot about weapon crafting!" Mo Wuzhou said, head held high, full of confidence.

You know nothing about weapon crafting!

Twelve pieces of white jade are not even worth 20% profit!
Chen Mu looked at Mo Wuzhou strangely.

Is this guy stupid? He actually lowered the price on his own initiative?

"Don't try to fool me with your so-called 20% profit! I want twelve pieces of white jade!"

Okay, okay, whatever you say.

Chen Mu was overjoyed.

But he couldn't just agree so readily, so he calmly looked at the other person without saying a word.

Under the moonlight, a gentle breeze rustled the leaves. For a moment, the atmosphere seemed to freeze.

Mo Wuzhou unconsciously clenched his fists behind his back.

This creepy guy, is he going to make a move?!

Isn't twelve pieces of white jade too much?

That magical scout was indeed exquisite. Its cost would certainly not be less than fifty pieces of white jade.

I'll take twelve right now, or... maybe I should lower the price a bit more?
"Deal!" Chen Mu said, feigning a gloomy expression.

Mo Wuzhou breathed a sigh of relief; it was good that it had succeeded.

Luckily I resisted the urge to lower the price, otherwise I would have lost a lot of money!
So it seems... I do have a knack for business, huh?

Haha ...

Mo Wuzhou felt a pang of guilt as he glanced at Chen Mu, who remained silent and exuded a gloomy aura.

Am I being too greedy?

"It's all for the secret technique of condensing the acupoints, sigh..."

He hesitated for a long time, feeling guilty, and finally said hesitantly, "How about I go and have a chat with Supervisor Liang?"

"How about we get the institute to fund the purchase of a batch for the land reclamation team?"

"He told me that eliminating the alien beasts is the most important thing right now."

"Mu Linglang is beneficial for clearing land and hunting, so he might be interested," Mo Wuzhou said uncertainly.

Internal procurement channels? If hundreds of pioneering teams were all equipped with Wood Spirits...

Don't laugh! Absolutely don't laugh!
These twelve white jade coins were totally worth it!

He almost couldn't keep his gloomy gaze!

"Contact Shang Huan. He can act as an intermediary." Chen Mu softened his gaze slightly, but his tone was a little colder than before.

After saying that, he turned and left.

He was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would burst out laughing.

Mr. Hao is right!
This Senior Brother Mo's character is truly outstanding!
Haha ...
