We agreed to farm, but you're planting a divine tree in the eternal night?

Acquire the store.

"100 yuan for a low-grade Wood Edge Flower Fruit, 900 yuan for a mid-grade Fire Radiance Flower Fruit, and the high-grade Fire Radiance Flower Fruit has been tested by my senior sister and has good common characteristics. I can give you a 3000 yuan deposit, plus a 10% commission, for a total of 35,000 yuan. Did you receive it?" Yao Yao asked, holding the bill.

Under the watchful eyes of Zhang San and the others, Jiang Qiu glanced at her phone; the money had arrived. She nodded, pushed over the mother plant of the "Superior Abundant Harvest" tree, and lifted the black cloth. "It's arrived. Now, let's calculate this."

"Huh?" Yao Yao blinked, staring blankly at the 29 top-grade fruits on the mother plant's branches. She sniffed, the fruit fragrance was rich. "You...your [Wood Edge Flower] mother plant is so productive? Wait, let me calculate. 2000 for each fruit, I'll transfer 5.8 to you, 20% commission will be calculated separately."

"Okay." Jiang Qiu received another transfer message.

Zhang San, Li Si, and the others watching from the side secretly looked on with envy; this one pot was worth more than a hundred pots for the seven of them.

And that doesn't even include the real bulk of the profits.

Ding ding ding, their phones vibrated quickly, receiving their earnings sharing from Jiang Qiu. Their eyes lit up, "Thank you, Brother Jiang!"

"It's alright, it's mutually beneficial," Jiang Qiu said calmly. This time, they made a profit by earning a 10% markup for free. It was a simple task, requiring no effort on their part. They also sold it at a high price, a win-win situation.

Next is agreeing to prepare the nutrient soil, but there is one more thing to deal with before that. We won first place in the acquisition event and signed the acquisition contract. During the internship, we can apply to upgrade the cooperation mode.

Cultivation results are exchanged for elixirs.

Common level 1 and 2 pills can be bought at a low price with money.

Just as Jiang Qiu was about to bring it up, Yao Yao, while excitedly picking high-grade fruits, happily said, "Oh, by the way, the batch of fruits you sold yesterday that were used to make pills have all sold out. Senior sister is planning to sign a new contract after you advance to the apprentice level and then negotiate the profit sharing. What do you think?"

Yesterday, the 10 [Golden Spirit Cage] fruits sold brought in a deposit of 40. Among them, Jiang Qiao ate 3 newly refined [Awakening Pills] on the spot. The supply couldn't meet the demand, so it's normal that they sold out in less than a day.

The 40 yuan hadn't been spent yet. Originally, I planned to buy pills from Zhao Nan to aid my cultivation after renewing the contract, which was perfect.

Jiang Qiu nodded. "Okay."

Soon, Yao Yao put the acquired fruit into the warehouse, then took him upstairs to Zhao Nan's office. "Senior sister, Jiang Qiu is here."

*Crunch*, the familiar sound of cucumber being chewed reached her ears first. Zhao Nan sat in her office chair, still wearing a yellow hoodie and short skirt. From this angle of the open door, her long, white legs were crossed and draped over her seat, the toes of her sneakers touching the floor. "Hmm~ You've already embarked on the path of cultivation so quickly?"

With a clear and melodious voice, Qingning's gaze drifted over. Jiang Qiu nodded, "The assessment ended this morning, and after selecting the [Initial Spirit Embryo], we'll plant it this afternoon. Our director said the situation on the front lines is tense right now, and there's no time to delay."

"Crunch~" Zhao Nan took a bite of cucumber with her pink lips and white teeth. "The situation at the front is indeed very tense. By this time next year at the latest, the trainees from Yidan Garden will be dispatched to provide support. Every minute and every second is precious now. After the cooperation is upgraded, have you considered your next cultivation plan?"

Jiang Qiu's eyes shone brightly. "Yes, in addition to cultivating hybrid spiritual plants, I plan to regularly purchase a batch of [Spirit Cultivation Pills] from your store to assist in my cultivation."

"Sure, what are your requirements?"

Jiang Qiu inquired, "How much would it cost for 30 high-grade wood-type and metal-type Spirit Cultivation Pills per month, preferably with the common characteristic of 'plenty to satisfy', to cultivate my internal spiritual plants?"

"Huh???" Yao Yao was stunned for a moment, staring at him in disbelief, her eyes seeming to say—you ate all of this by yourself?

Although the cultivation path of spirit plant masters is the one with the most unpredictable resource consumption, normally, if one consumes 10 high-grade [Spirit Cultivation Pills] each month during the first three stages, their cultivation level will naturally improve.

Who eats 60 pills every month?

They are also different zodiac signs!

Zhao Nan paused, blinked, and said, "That's good. The more you eat, the faster you improve. Today, Uncle Jiang said that you brought out your independently cultivated [Wood Fruit] during the assessment. You have great talent. If you grow up sooner, our cooperation will be deeper. Yao Yao, let's go with the lowest price."

"Ah... Oh, oh," Yao Yao opened her accounting notebook, stared at it intently, and pursed her lips, saying, "According to your request, a high-grade wood-type [Spirit Cultivation Pill] costs 1 each, and a high-grade metal-type [Spirit Cultivation Pill] costs 1.2 each."

"These are the minimum selling prices, and the monthly payment is 66. Are you planning to start ordering these this month?"

If calculated according to the price of pills in the [Level 1 Pill Storage], it would cost 81, and there's no guarantee you'd get the pills you want. Buying pills from Zhao Nan not only guarantees stable properties but also saves you 15 per month.

From now on, I will naturally order from here.

Jiang Qiuxin said happily, "Yes, just look at how much commission I get from selling the [Golden Spirit Cage], and deduct it directly from that. If it's not enough, I'll make up the difference."

"No...no need to make up the difference," Yao Yao shook her head like a rattle-drum, and said solemnly, "Your share is 100 million, but after deducting 66 for one month, I still need to transfer 34 to you. Shall we sign the new contract now?"

Selling 10 [Golden Spirit Cages] will earn you a share of 100 million, plus a deposit of 4 per cage, making the average price per cage 14. As long as you guarantee to produce one "harvest" per month, it will be enough to cover your two months' worth of pills.

The cost of the essential fertilizer is only 1.2.

Jiang Qiu's eyes brightened almost imperceptibly. "Okay."

Soon after, a new contract was signed, the cooperation model was upgraded, and 34 yuan was received. The negotiation went smoothly, and he smiled and said goodbye. After going downstairs, he took Zhang San, Li Si, Yang Zhilan and others to other shops to purchase nutrient soil.

......

Deep in the alley, shadows loomed, and the streetlights couldn't illuminate the stalls hidden inside. Tap tap, a masked middle-aged man weighed a level 1 spirit seed bag in his hand, untied the drawstring, and peered inside, his one eye darting around.

"Hehe, Lao Tian, ​​we've done so many business deals, don't you trust me?" The black-robed stall owner chuckled. "If I weren't absolutely certain, why would I recommend it to you? Wasn't it me who introduced you to the method for treating your eye disease? If this stuff is successfully hybridized, it will naturally win the championship."

Old Tian took a deep breath, gripped the spirit seed bag tightly with one hand, and took out cash from his pocket with the other. "This year's 'Procreation Competition' may see another genius like Lu Changming appear. There's no way we can be absolutely certain of victory."

"You mean Jiang Qiu? I've heard of him. He is indeed quite talented," the stall owner sighed. "However, he hasn't fully matured yet. The spirit seed I gave you, on the other hand, if successfully hybridized, will be enough to make you one of the strongest trainees."

"I hope so," Old Tian said noncommittally.

He handed over the money and the goods, stuffed the spirit seed bag into his pocket, and walked out. At that moment, a young man wearing a mask and hood came in from outside, his exposed eyes sharp and piercing.

The two brushed past each other. Old Tian stopped and glanced back. The young man's back and eyes seemed somewhat familiar, but after thinking about it carefully, he shook his head. How could such a genius appear in such a humble corner of the city?

Mediocre people, with nowhere else to turn.

That's when they'll find another way...
