After the city defense teams were deployed, Jiang Yuan and his companion followed Shangguan Ya into a simple military tent.
"Your Northern City Alliance is so shabby! Not only do you not have mansions, you're just living in tents!" Little Fatty complained as he entered the tent that was set up directly under the city wall. This was quite different from the scene he had imagined.
"I'm staying here so I can better prepare for battle!" Shangguan Ya showed no displeasure; she was used to this lifestyle. "What would you two like to drink?"
"Forget about drinking it, let's see if you can eat this first!" Jiang Yuan directly refused the suggestion of drinking tea, and took out a Blazing Blood Vermilion Fruit by tapping the table.
Shangguan Ya put down the thermos and sat down opposite Jiang Yuan. "What is this?"
"A spiritual fruit that greatly enhances the physical body!" Jiang Yuan had no reason to hide it. Although the Blazing Blood Vermilion Fruit was precious, it was just an ordinary item to him.
A Blazing Blood Vermilion Fruit tree has a fruiting period of two hundred years. Although it has been shortened to twenty days with the help of the Life-Giving Talisman and a huge amount of nutrient solution, the fruits produced will still be counted according to the two hundred years. However, the Blazing Blood Vermilion Fruit is different from ordinary fruit trees. It takes ten years to get one tree of fruit, which means it can be harvested once a day.
Based on this calculation, a Blazing Blood Vermilion Fruit Tree can provide Jiang Yuan with twenty fruits before it withers, a quantity that is more than enough for him to squander at will.
Seeing that her expression didn't change when she saw the fruit, Shangguan Ya smiled and said, "You're joking, sir. What's there to eat or not eat with just one fruit!"
"What if there were even more?" Jiang Yuan tapped the table rhythmically, looking extremely relaxed.
"If the price is right, I'll take as many of these fruits as you have!" Shangguan Ya didn't hesitate. Many of their soldiers were strength-type, and they valued physical cultivation highly. Naturally, they wouldn't have too many of the famous Bloodstained Vermilion Fruit, a spiritual fruit for tempering the body! Moreover, even if they weren't strength-type, those with spiritual energy or soul energy could use it, so it wouldn't conflict with any other spiritual fruit.
"What price are you willing to accept?" Jiang Yuan asked calmly.
Shangguan Ya pursed her red lips slightly, "What, do you have a lot?"
"Not many, only about a hundred!" Jiang Yuan said calmly, as if a hundred or so were insignificant to him.
At the auction house, he delivered two hundred Blazing Blood Vermilion Fruits to Liu Zhaodi, and with the remaining ones and the ones that were just harvested today, he had enough for one hundred more.
"Did you get a hundred times the drop rate from the core?" Shangguan Ya looked at Jiang Yuan suspiciously.
Current research on the core technology is extremely thorough. Through the comparison of big data, many people have discovered the patterns. Five times, ten times, and even a hundred times the drop rate have appeared. However, these are opportunities that only lucky people can encounter, and ordinary people dare not hope for them.
"I'm only responsible for selling; I'm afraid I can't answer any other questions!" Jiang Yuan shook his head and refused to answer the question.
Shangguan Ya remained silent for a while, her curiosity about Jiang Yuan's mystery growing even stronger.
After the catastrophe, some people began to firmly believe in the concept of luck. However, various situations have proven that luck is real. Often, some people have incredible good luck when they activate the core, and this luck is not just once or twice. It is as if they have a built-in lucky bonus, which will always be revealed unexpectedly.
In her eyes, Jiang Yuan's ability to achieve a 100x drop rate meant he was born with good fortune. With such strong luck and exceptional talent, he was an unsolvable problem after the cataclysm.
"According to the market price, I can only offer five ninth-tier Holy Spirit Stones per unit to buy the Blazing Blood Vermilion Fruit!" Shangguan Ya suppressed her curiosity and quoted her price.
"Alright, this price is very reasonable!" Jiang Yuan waved his hand, and a pile of fruit was neatly stacked on the table. He picked up the first one and tossed it to Shangguan Ya. "Here are 101 fruits. I'll give you the equivalent of 500 ninth-tier Holy Spirit Stones!"
Currently, no one can produce a large quantity of ninth-tier Holy Spirit Stones; they can only be converted into lower-tier eighth-tier and seventh-tier stones, or even lower ones.
"One hundred and one, could this one be a gift for me?" Shangguan Ya asked, holding up a fiery red fruit with obvious delight.
"I still have the Crimson Blood Fruit to go, so I must bribe you, the alliance leader, or who will do business with me!" Jiang Yuan said calmly, head held high.
"You have more?" Shangguan Ya asked incredulously.
“If you need it, I can send a batch every day, about the same quantity as this time!” Jiang Yuan snapped his fingers.
During the fruiting period, the Crimson Blood Fruit Tree grows more and more abundantly. As long as the nutrient solution is sufficient, he is not worried about the quantity of Crimson Blood Fruit.
"This one Blazing Blood Vermilion Fruit won't bribe me!" Shangguan Ya said as she took a bite of the Blazing Blood Vermilion Fruit.
Looking at this scene, Jiang Yuan said confidently, "Although I'm not worried about sales, since Alliance Leader Shangguan is willing to help, the reward will certainly be substantial!"
Shangguan Ya agreed with Jiang Yuan's statement. She then changed the subject, saying, "However, this batch of Blazing Blood Vermilion Fruit costs five hundred ninth-grade Holy Spirit Stones. I certainly cannot afford to purchase it on my own. So you will have to accompany me to the warehouse later. I can only put it into storage and give you the Holy Spirit Stones after I have approved the paperwork!"
“Okay!” Jiang Yuan understood that the internal rules of an organization like the North City Alliance must be extremely strict. If one person could use the resources of the entire alliance, then there would be no need to call it an alliance.
"You've stated your conditions, so I'll get straight to the point and won't beat around the bush!" Shangguan Ya sat up straight, her expression extremely serious.
"you say!"
Jiang Yuan had long known that this woman hadn't called him here for anything good, and he was already prepared.
"Your strength is evident to all. You have fought against high-level spirit beasts time and time again with remarkable results!" Shangguan Ya said in an official tone.
"Just say what you have to say!"
Seeing Jiang Yuan's impatience, Shangguan Ya pressed the button in the middle of the table, and instantly a large number of interference waves appeared around the tent.
