Chapter 160 Transaction Failed
Wu Liang is really good at thinking.
I want to exchange special supply boxes for Wind Shadow Jade, and I want to exchange for so many more.
Although he didn't say it aloud, Chen Qing could still sense his inexplicable confidence.
This man may be very qualified to be a village chief, but from a businessman's perspective... he's really being too unrealistic.
Did he really know the value of the Fengying Jadeite?
He must have known, which is why he brought it up.
To be honest, even if Chen Qing really did switch places with him and did as he asked,
Let alone a thousand Wind Shadow Jadeite, even a single one would be beyond the control of this village.
They cannot bear the unpredictability of the Wind Shadow Jade.
Chen Qingdu still used the Mechanical Fish King to control the Wind Shadow Jade.
"impossible."
Chen Qing glanced at Wu Liang and said indifferently.
Wu Liang's expression changed slightly, but he still had a smile on his face. He was very confident in the goods being traded.
Why don't you ask about my terms?
He didn't believe Chen Qing wouldn't be tempted; for both survivors and natives, supply boxes were definitely a form of hard currency.
It's worth noting that the probability of getting good items from special supply boxes is very high.
As for why their village didn't open it... it's mainly because their village is somewhat incompatible with this special supply box.
A high probability of getting good items doesn't mean it's 100%.
Who would have thought that a special supply crate could contain a bunch of unusual cockroaches...
Thinking back to that scene, Wu Liang still felt a chill run down his spine; those cockroaches almost wiped out their entire village.
"Special supplies box".
Chen Qing's expression remained unchanged as he stared intently at Wu Liang. What kind of trade goods could they possibly have?
If this village had any valuable resources, she wouldn't have had to come here in the first place.
The only industrial chain that has been formed in this village is the supply box.
Currently, the highest-level supply crates that survivors can retrieve in the Deep Blue Sea are of purple quality, or at least special supply crates.
Exchanging a purple-quality supply box for a mechanical supernatural sea beast like Wind Shadow Jade isn't necessarily a bad deal; it's just that Wind Shadow Jade is quite special.
Any mechanic who knows the value of the Wind Shadow Jade would not do this.
The items you get from special supply crates may not be suitable for the mechanic, and even if you get good items, you still have to put in the effort to exchange them.
This deal cannot be considered suitable, at least not for Chen Qing.
"One supply box can be exchanged for eight hundred Wind Shadow Jade."
Wu Liang thought for a moment, then said with considerable reluctance.
The heartache on his face was genuine; he truly felt it was a bad deal.
"No trade. If all you want to do is exchange for the Wind Shadow Jade, then there's no need to continue this discussion."
"If it were other mechanical creations, we would still have room to negotiate."
Chen Qing didn't even drink the tea before getting up to leave; she was just telling the truth.
But her attitude only strengthened Wu Liang's resolve to exchange for the Wind Shadow Jadeite. This Wind Shadow Jadeite must be a valuable item!
Chen Qing's reaction made him think that it was just a bargaining tactic by Chen Qing. He was an honest man, but after dealing with those unscrupulous merchants for a long time, he also knew some bargaining skills.
Wu Liang sat calmly in his chair, drinking tea without saying a word, looking very confident.
At this point, whoever speaks first loses; isn't that just an attempt to control him?
He needs to be able to hold on.
This young man is still too inexperienced.
These days, Wu Liang has been flattered by those businessmen quite a bit, and he's become somewhat unsure of his own position.
To be precise, he got a little carried away.
Those merchants were after the high-end and special supply boxes, not because he was particularly clever.
Bargaining is an essential skill for business people, and it is based on the premise that both parties have the intention to trade.
However, Wu Liang made an impossible condition from the very beginning.
If Chen Qing could control the Wind Shadow Jade, and if he could offer something more precious and tangible, then Chen Qing might be willing to make the trade.
But special supply boxes are essentially blind boxes; you're gambling on the probability of getting something good.
Although Chen Qing is a gambler occasionally, she is not a gambler all the time.
At least under the current circumstances, she is unwilling to gamble.
Chen Qing turned and left without hesitation, and the merchants outside all showed a hint of joy when they saw this.
The talks broke down.
Unlike Wu Liang, a half-baked businessman, they could see clearly whether Chen Qing was doing it intentionally or genuinely didn't want to do the deal.
People like Chen Qing are straightforward and honest; they generally don't act pretentious.
They looked at each other, their eyes filled with joy.
The breakdown in negotiations between Chen Qing and Wu Liang means that both sides have room for a deal.
They can do business with Wu Liang, and they can also do business with Chen Qing.
After Chen Qing left the village chief's house, Wu Liang still didn't make a move, still believing that Chen Qing was trying to control him.
He was quite pleased with his own intelligence, unaware that Chen Qing truly had no intention of making a deal with him.
She then instructed the fishing team to keep an eye out for supply crates in the ocean.
Chen Qing and these businessmen were relatively ethical people, and they cared about their reputation to some extent.
If it were some more ruthless merchants, none of the survivors in this village would have escaped; they would all have become slaves.
If the survivors of this village had not settled in the Elemental Sea, but in one of the other sea areas, they wouldn't be so relaxed and carefree right now.
Soon after Chen Qing left the village chief's house, a businessman followed him.
She's trying to steal the job.
"Lord Chen Qing, Lord Chen Qing, please wait a moment."
A short-haired businesswoman in her thirties called out to Chen Qing. She was a professional businesswoman, and it was quite difficult for her to keep up with Chen Qing's pace.
He was panting heavily after only a couple of steps, completely out of breath.
In this floating village, every raft belongs to someone else; the paths they walk are all belonging to other people.
So naturally, the merchant's voice attracted the attention of the other survivors.
"What's up?"
Chen Qing stopped and looked down at the businessman.
"Lord Chen Qing, may I speak with you in private?"
The merchant smiled before speaking, appearing to be a friendly person, and asked in a very respectful manner.
When she said "let's talk privately," she meant leaving the village and going to their boat to talk.
There are spies everywhere in this village. They're not very capable, but they're quite cunning.
We should really let Third Sister come and do business with them, so they can really understand the dangers of this world.
The merchant thought darkly, "Why can't these good customers meet good merchants?"
She heard that the village of homeless people her fourth brother had been in contact with were all genuinely honest people, and that her fourth brother had ruined them all.
"I can get you anything you want, no matter what it is."
The businessman said in a low voice.
This is still someone else's territory after all. She's delicate and precious; if these things touch her even slightly, she'll be bedridden for days. It's such a waste.
