Chapter 535 You Are a Different Price
The group then took their seats.
Zhen Zhifan sat in a corner on the edge, almost invisible.
Luo Zhenguo didn't notice him, but looked at Ling Ran with admiration: "It's no small matter. Even if it's just a small favor, it's still a righteous act. Especially in the post-apocalyptic world, this spirit of helping others is even more precious. Not to mention that Miss Ling saved my life. If this were ancient times, I would have to repay her with my body."
Luo Han was listening attentively to his grandfather's words when he suddenly said something that startled him. He quickly tugged at Luo Zhenguo's sleeve and said, "Grandpa, don't talk nonsense."
"Where did I say anything nonsense?" Luo Zhenguo stroked his short beard. "I'm just stating the facts. That's how it was in ancient times. I didn't say you should imitate the ancients. Of course, if Miss Ling likes it, this old man will wholeheartedly support it."
Before Ling Ran could speak, Pei Yi said, "My sister is still young, it's too early for her to talk about marriage. Besides, with my sister's qualifications, if she were to find a partner, she would have to go through a rigorous selection process."
The implication is that if Ling Ran wants to choose a husband, Luo Han will have to go through a nationwide selection process, and his sister will only want the most outstanding one.
Upon hearing this, Luo Han's ears turned red, and she felt somewhat ashamed.
What nonsense is his grandfather spouting? Who does he think he is? Does he even deserve to be called a grandfather?
Luo Zhenguo didn't feel embarrassed at all. Instead, he smiled and agreed: "If Miss Ling really wants to find a partner someday, please send someone to let me know so I can register my grandson."
This attitude lessened Pei Yi and the others' hostility.
However, he didn't want to talk about this anymore, so he took the initiative to say, "Mr. Luo, you came here not just to thank my sister, right? If there's anything else, please speak frankly."
"I have come here not only to personally thank Miss Ling for saving my life, but also because I have another matter to ask of Miss Ling."
Luo Zhenguo glanced at Zhen Zhifan and then said, "I heard from Manager Zhen that Miss Ling has a kind of impurity-free crystal core that can be compared with Manager Zhou's evolution fluid for sale? Our Beijing base wants to buy a hundred million points. I wonder how much Miss Ling has in stock?"
"Mr. Luo can just tell us how much he wants to buy."
"How much does this crystal core cost?"
Pei Yi looked at Ling Ran.
He didn't know how to sell it.
Sometimes Ling Ran would take 40%, and sometimes she would take 30%, depending on her mood.
Seeing this, the others also looked at Ling Ran, who sat lazily on the sofa. Even though she was facing a big shot from the Beijing base, she still didn't show much respect.
However, Pei Yi and the others knew that Ling Ran had already given Luo Zhenguo a lot of face.
Many people want to shake hands with Ling Ran, but the number of people who actually get to shake hands with her can be counted on one hand.
“If it’s your base in Beijing, I’ll take 20% of the profits.”
Upon hearing this, Pei Yi and the others were immediately taken aback.
20%!
Depend on!
Could she really have fallen for Luo Han?
He's not a pretty boy at all; he has wheat-colored skin, sharp features, and a very upright and dignified appearance, which fits the male definition of a handsome man. Girls probably prefer men who are fair-skinned, clean-cut, and handsome.
But adults' perspectives are definitely different from ordinary people's, so what she actually likes is a man with hormones and sexual tension?
Luo Zhenguo was unaware of these things, but he noticed Ling Ran's choice of words.
Take 20% of the profits?
This means that no matter how many crystal cores they provide, she takes a cut. To be more specific, she doesn't keep any impurity-free crystal cores in stock; instead, after they provide the crystal cores, say 10,000, she takes 20%.
So here's the question: why did she say that? Is it because she has the ability to turn ordinary crystal nuclei into impurity-free crystal nuclei?
Luo Zhenguo immediately grasped the key point and tentatively asked, "I wonder when the delivery can be made? We may have a lot of crystal cores."
"Deliver it today, give it to me tomorrow."
Ling Ran understood the deeper meaning in Luo Zhenguo's words, but she didn't care whether others knew or not.
Just like Pei Xiu's wood-type ability and Fan Chuan's earth-type ability, she never told them not to tell anyone.
So what if they know? What can anyone do to her?
This isn't some kind of evil stemming from a lack of understanding of human nature; it's simply a complete overconfidence in one's own abilities, nothing more.
Luo Zhenguo, whose face had remained calm, couldn't help but show a look of shock.
One day.
No, could she really turn millions, or even tens of millions, of crystal cores into impurity-free crystal cores in less than a day?
Suddenly, Luo Zhenguo had a flash of inspiration and remembered what Zhen Zhifan had told him before: "Sir, her superpower is that her words can become law."
When Luo Zhenguo heard this, he just laughed and left without paying any special attention.
He thought that Miss Ling must be a multi-elemental ability user, which was why she could 'make her words come true'.
But is it really true that words become law?
If that's the case, then the ability to transform ordinary crystal nuclei into impurity-free crystal nuclei overnight can be explained.
Pei Yi saw Luo Zhenguo suddenly stop speaking, and then his face changed from sudden realization to shock and surprise, and then back to calm and undisturbed. The changes were too fast.
"Mr. Luo, are you alright?"
"fine."
Luo Zhenguo regained his composure, but there was a barely perceptible hint of ingratiation in his calm: "Lord Ling, I didn't bring any crystal cores today. Can I bring them over tomorrow?"
"Okay, as soon as possible."
Hearing this, Zhen Zhifan couldn't help but interject, "Sir, I also want to buy a billion impurity-free crystal cores, is that alright?"
"You."
Ling Ran glanced at him: "You're at a different price."
Zhen Zhifan: "? So what's my price?"
"I'll take 40%."
"..."
"You don't have to buy it if you don't want to."
"purchase!"
Zhen Zhifan hurriedly said, "I bought it, sir. I'll deliver it to you tomorrow."
In fact, he could have given the crystal core to the Beijing base and let them count it together, and he could even have given the Beijing base 10% of the profit.
But Zhen Zhifan did not do that.
The adults already have a bad impression of him, and if he continues like this, he might be completely blacklisted by them.
That's fine, as long as the adults can calm down.
Pei Xiu and the others felt relieved to see Ling Ran's performance suddenly improve by 20%.
Sigh, her princess syndrome has been cured.
Luo Zhenguo also glanced at Zhen Zhifan with surprise.
No wonder he said this kid was suddenly being so kind; it turns out he was disliked by Lord Ling.
Zhen Zhifan, who was being watched with schadenfreude by everyone, was speechless.
I'm numb.
It's really numb.
And please, don't make your gloating so obvious. For the person involved, this is a second injury, do you understand?
In any case, the business deals with the two bases in the provincial capital and Beijing were finalized.
Then it was dinnertime, and Zhen Zhifan took the opportunity to invite Ling Ran to their provincial capital restaurant for dinner.
To Ling Ran and the others' surprise, the transportation at the provincial capital base was also a sightseeing bus.
Zhen Zhifan also introduced there: "Our provincial capital base was originally built in a 4A-level scenic area. We have also kept the original sightseeing vehicles, which are very convenient for daily transportation."
