Lu Xingchen continued, "Why don't you consult Master Ji Kuang and ask if it's worth it?"
She knew Ba Wu was honest, so when she made the offer, she weighed the options and neither of them lost out.
It's a very reasonable price.
Before Master Ji Xiang could say anything, Ji Jiu spoke first: "Brilliant! Ba Wu, you only charged a little less money. You can just give a little less to your sons later. It's like the whole team is helping you buy battle axes, and you don't have to spend any extra money. It's such a good deal!"
Ji Jiu gave Lu Xingchen a thumbs up: "You're really cunning!"
Lu Xingchen: ...
She denies it!
She clearly considered Ba Wu's situation very well.
Moreover, the price isn't high; it's a legendary battle axe with "divine craftsmanship"!
Ba Wu quickly came to a conclusion: "Okay, no problem, but my dad won't agree..."
Ji Jiu: "Are you stupid! Just tell your dad that Ji Jiu helped negotiate the price for a long time, and in the end, Lu Xingchen agreed to a one-to-one exchange because of her. How could your dad not agree to that?"
Ba Wu's eyes lit up: "Yes, yes, that's great!"
Ji Jiu: "Hmm, tell your dad to give me some kickbacks!"
Ba Wu: "Okay, thank you, Xiao Jiu!"
Ba Wu immediately became excited and wanted to go back to Babu to ask for the battle axe.
Lu Xingchen told him to wait, at least until Master Babu calmed down before going.
After the two discussed it, Lu Xingchen breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Master Ba Wu, I know that according to the usual practice, I should pay a 30% deposit first, which is 5.4 million gold coins. Now that you have reduced it by 5 million gold coins, can I not pay the deposit for now?"
Ba Wu was easy to talk to, and after eating the pork ribs stewed with taro, his impression of Lu Xingchen improved.
He did the math and said, "Okay, no problem, but you have to pay the full amount after I finish building it!"
Lu Xingchen nodded: "Of course!"
Ji Jiu frowned, nudged Twenty-Three with her elbow, and whispered, "Little Twenty-Three, I feel like Lu Xingchen's calculations aren't quite right?"
Ji Twenty-three glanced at her and said, "What's wrong? Don't meddle in things that are not your business!"
Ji Jiu understood: "Uh-huh!"
Lu Xingchen was focused on resolving the deposit issue and didn't think much of it.
After discussing with Ba Wu, I felt something was wrong.
Chu Hongyi quietly gave her a thumbs-up: "You're amazing! 18 million - 5 million = 13 million gold coins. You should have paid a deposit of 3.9 million gold coins. Sister, how come you're so capable?"
Lu Xingchen: ...
She really didn't mean it.
Lu Xingchen: "Rich woman, how many gold coins did you bring? Can I borrow some?"
Chu Hongyi: "I originally brought 3 million gold coins, and I was worried that it wouldn't be enough. I didn't expect you to solve it by yourself. Lu Xingchen, I feel so useless when you do this!"
After exchanging a few jokes, Lu Xingchen took out his market planning map and let Chu Hongyi choose a shop.
Chu Hongyi was wealthy and chose two shops, a grocery store on Misty Road and a shop on Armor Street.
They then chose a square near the center, intending to build an inn there.
Lu Xingchen agreed and fenced off the area.
The two had agreed to cooperate, and Chu Hongyi had been contributing her efforts, so Lu Xingchen would naturally keep his promise.
Finally, the two agreed that Chu Hongyi would receive five percent of the profits from the market.
However, the investment was 2 million.
In addition, the market needs some guards, and the Chu family will provide some people.
The construction of the inn needs to be discussed with Ba Wu, and a separate fee will be required.
Because inns require a lot of materials and are quite complicated to build, Lu Xingchen has to pay for his own inn.
After the two had discussed it to a near-complete conclusion, Lu Xingchen went to Lu Haoyue and asked him to choose a shop as well.
Lu Haoyue chose a shop on Xibei Street.
Then, Lu Haoyue was about to leave.
There were only two or three people guarding his boat, and they dared not stay any longer.
Chu Hongyi has plenty of people at home, so she's not going back. She's staying here to help Lu Xingchen oversee the construction.
Lu Xingchen had just finished making arrangements when he received a chat request from Xuan Yuan Batian.
In fact, Xuanyuan Batian had been requesting to chat since the early hours of the morning, but Lu Xingchen was too busy and kept refusing.
By then, she was alright, so she answered the call.
Xuanyuan Batian's voice came through: "Lu Xingchen, how's the battle to seize the island going? Do you need any help?"
