Beijing, Shen family.
"Second Young Master, can't the price really be any lower?"
Inside the council chamber, a member of a small family looked at Shen Nanxing with a fawning expression, "Our family really can't afford that many crystal cores!"
"If you can't afford it, you don't have to exchange it. I don't really want to sell it either, since we don't even have enough for our own family."
Shen Nanxing sat calmly in the main seat, slowly peeling nuts for Jiang Nian'an.
"this......"
The man looked embarrassed and couldn't speak for a long time.
Meanwhile, those who were secretly watching this situation, hoping that Shen Nanxing would soften his stance and lower the price, couldn't help but feel disappointed.
"Everyone, I have a lot of other things to do and can't stay for long."
The deal must be completed in half an hour at the latest.
Shen Nanxing clapped his hands and spoke up to remind him.
"Half...half an hour?"
Those who were hesitant because of the price immediately became anxious, "Second Young Master, please give us more time to consider!"
"Even if I give you another day to think it over, you still won't come up with a solution. We might as well finish this quickly."
Shen Nanxing glanced at them, a meaningful smile playing on his lips.
"Here's the number of mutated beasts the military needs; the price will be as you stated."
Fu Tian, who had been sitting and listening for a long time but had not yet expressed his opinion, took out a neatly folded piece of paper from his pocket and gently pushed it in front of Shen Nanxing.
Shen Nanxing continued peeling nuts, so Jiang Nian'an reached out and picked up the paper, opened it, and read it with Shen Nanxing.
We need 5,000 flying mutant beasts and 10,000 small mutant beasts, such as mutant rats, that can burrow underground.
These all require level three certification.
In addition, we need 200 level 4 medium or large ferocious beast mutants.
"OK."
Shen Nanxing turned to Fu Tian and said, "The mutated beasts will be delivered whenever the crystal cores are delivered."
"Can!"
Fu Tian whispered a few words to the young man beside him.
The young man nodded and quickly got up to leave.
Seeing that the military had made its stance clear, some people knew there was no hope of lowering the price. They gritted their teeth and said, "Second Young Master, let's switch!"
“Sure, just like the military, we'll exchange the crystal core for the beast.”
Shen Nanxing said without looking up.
"good!"
The man strode out of the council chamber and returned within two minutes.
Two more people followed behind, each carrying two large sacks on their shoulders.
"Second Young Master, Young Madam, let's get a Level 4 mutated cat. The crystal cores are all here, please check them."
Jiang Nian'an waved her hand to put the crystal cores into her spatial storage. After checking the quantity, she nodded to Fang Shisan at the door.
Fang Shisan understood and immediately ordered someone to take the other party to select a mutant cat.
Seeing this, the others steeled themselves and brought their crystal cores to trade.
After confirming their needs, Jiang Nian'an checked the number of crystal cores one by one, and then handed the people over to Fang Shisan.
Soon, only Jiang Nian'an, Shen Nanxing, and Fu Tian remained in the council hall.
"Can't you really exchange them for some of our attribute-mutated beasts?"
Fu Tian looked at Shen Nanxing and the other person, and suddenly asked.
Jiang Nian'an gave a slightly apologetic smile, "Commander Fu, it's not that we don't want to switch, it's just that there aren't enough for our own people."
"When I came in earlier, I happened to see Fang Shisan showing those attribute-mutated beasts around the Shen family.
There were a huge flock of them, more than thirty in total. They should be enough to trade for two of us, right?
Fu Tian took a sip of tea and tentatively asked through the rising steam.
"Commander Fu, no trade means no trade. If you keep arguing, the previous deal is off!"
Shen Nanxing had already peeled a whole plate of nuts. He gently pushed the plate in front of Jiang Nian'an, then looked at Fu Tian with displeasure.
"Alright, alright, I won't nag anymore!"
Fu Tian laughed it off, and that was the end of the topic.
"By the way, are all those things... all arranged?"
Fu Tian glanced towards the door, his expression suggestive.
"rest assured!"
Shen Nanxing picked up a wet wipe from the table, wiping his hands as he said, "But if they don't have a heart to betray you, you can't lay a hand on them."
"Of course."
Fu Tian said firmly, "Our goal has always been to protect them."
Shen Nanxing neither confirmed nor denied, neither saying he believed nor disbelieved.
Twenty minutes later, the young man who had left earlier returned with the crystal core.
"Let's go, let's count the quantities!"
Fu Tian was the first to get up and walk outside.
Jiang Nian'an put the nuts that Shen Nanxing had peeled for her into her spatial storage before pulling Shen Nanxing along as they walked outside.
Others carried their crystal cores in sacks, while the military brought them in trucks.
Jiang Nian'an walked to the back of the truck bed and directly waved his hand to collect all the crystal cores into his space.
The price paid to the military appeared to be the same as that paid to other families, but in reality, it was a 50% discount.
"Fang Shisan, arrange for someone to deliver the mutated beasts the military wants."
Shen Nanxing handed over Fang Shisan's instructions.
"Need not!"
Fu Tian waved his hand, "We've already prepared the vehicles; just let them get in directly."
"OK!"
Shen Nanxing said nonchalantly, "But even if you pick it up yourself, we won't lower the price."
Fu Tian: "..."
"I never expected that the dignified Second Young Master Shen would have a sense of humor!"
Fu Tian teased him, then waved his hand and turned to walk out of the Shen family's house.
"I won't see you out~"
Shen Nanxing put his arm around Jiang Nian'an's shoulder and watched Fu Tian and his group leave.
"Brother Chen, I need to take Obsidian and the others to the special training ground."
"Okay, do you want me to come with you?"
"No need, you go ahead and do your thing. I'll go find Xiao Zhanzhan to help them improve their talents. I'll take advantage of the fact that the crystal cores I just got are still warm and quickly boost their strength."
"Okay, but you have to come back and have dinner with me tonight."
“Okay, let’s bring Xiao Zhanzhan and Xiao An back to rest for the night, and then send them to the training ground tomorrow morning.”
After they made their agreement, they went their separate ways and got busy with their own tasks.
