#81 - Trading Tips
Lord Ziyun Mountain was full of confidence and said, "Satisfaction guaranteed."
This time, in order to earn more Origin Stones, it had emptied its coffers to purchase various Origin Power foods. If these goods didn't sell well or couldn't be sold at all, their trade caravan would have to eat dirt for at least several years.
Lord Ziyun Mountain vigorously promoted the goods: "This time, our goods include soul-type Sea Soul Seeds, life-type God-Given Durians, as well as strength-type God-Given Cone Chestnuts, wood-type God-Given Jackfruit, as well as Kapok Seeds, Ginkgo Seeds,
Maple Seeds—·
Whatever you need, our trade caravan has it."
"Lord Ziyun, impressive strength." Lord Dingfeng didn't expect the Ziyun Trade Caravan to bring so many goods, and many of them were urgently needed by Sangling. As one of the two major lords of Sangling, it needed to purchase a batch of Origin Power foods for the tribe's reserves.
Lord Dingfeng: "Can I take a look at the God-Given Sea Soul Seeds?"
"Yes, yes." King-level God-Given Origin Power foods were too precious, so Lord Ziyun Mountain carried them on its back. Hearing Lord Dingfeng say it wanted to see the goods, it quickly took out a small spider silk bag from its carapace and opened it.
Lord Dingfeng picked up a God-Given Sea Soul Seed from the bag and carefully examined it. It wasn't a bug without discernment; looking at this God-Given Sea Soul Seed, it knew that it should be a soul-type large tree transformed from some kind of Dawn Redwood.
The Origin Power on the seed was very rich and did not contain any other Origin Power forces. It should be produced by a wild God-Given Seed, and it was still a peak King-level wild God-Given Seed of the soul type.
The Silkworm Moth race possessed life-type talent potential, so evolution was easier for them compared to other insect races. Even if they couldn't cross some thresholds at the Great Realm, they still had a chance to transform into butterflies once.
But they weren't without weaknesses. Their souls were relatively weak. During evolution, many of their clansmen's bodies could still support Origin Power, but their souls quietly dissipated. Therefore, soul-type Origin Power foods were very important to them.
Lord Dingfeng looked at the spider silk bag and then asked the price: "Are there only five? How many Origin Stones per seed?"
Lord Ziyun Mountain already had a draft in mind and decisively quoted: "One thousand Origin Stones per seed."
Lord Ziyun Mountain was also aggrieved. If this were in the Flower Mosquito tribe of Bloodvine Lake, it would have quoted at least 1,500 to 1,800. Here, it could only quote 1,000, and Lord Dingfeng would probably still bargain.
There was no way around it. The Silkworm Moth race wasn't like the Flower Mosquito race. Other bugs had unique skills. If the unit price of Origin Power foods was too high, the bugs would disagree and simply work on their own. At that time, they would lose a customer and gain a competitor.
As expected, as soon as Lord Ziyun Mountain quoted the price, Lord Dingfeng unhappily bargained, and the bargaining was particularly harsh: "Lord Ziyun, we've been friends for so many years, and you're still asking for such a high price? It's not like I don't know the price of Origin Power foods. Lower it a bit. How about 550 Origin Stones?"
Lord Ziyun Mountain: "Lord Dingfeng, I quoted 1,000 Origin Stones, and you're directly cutting it in half. How can we do business?
You should know the rarity of soul-type God-Given Origin Power foods. Perhaps there's only one such plant in the entire Origin Power Star Realm. I sell it for 1,800 elsewhere. 1,000 Origin Stones is already the bottom price."
Lord Dingfeng: "Six hundred Origin Stones per seed? Soul-type God-Given Origin Power foods are certainly precious, but they're too small. I don't even know if they'll be effective when eaten."
Hearing it say this, Lord Ziyun Mountain waved its claws and said generously: "I'll give Lord Dingfeng one to try for free. If you don't think it's good, then I have nothing to say. But if you think it's good and want to buy more, how about buying it at the price of 1,000 Origin Stones?"
"Uh," Lord Dingfeng was speechless. What was the point of it trying one? It wanted to lower the price so that most of the clan could afford it.
Lord Dingfeng rolled its eyes and thought of a reason: "Sea Soul Seeds are so expensive. I'm embarrassed to eat for free. Lord Ziyun, we still have a lot of business to do. There's no need to haggle over this little thing. How about you lower it a bit and give me a fair price."
Hearing Lord Dingfeng say this, and thinking that their trade caravan did have a lot of business here and couldn't afford to fall out, it said, "Eight hundred Origin Stones per seed. This is the lowest price."
Other God-Given Origin Power foods with mediocre effects were being sold at a 30% markup, while soul-type God-Given Origin Power foods were being sold at a 60% markup. It was really conscientious.
The main thing was that generally, soul-type God-Givens started at the Divine rank, and the price directly rose to tens of millions of Origin Stones. It was difficult to have a soul-type God-Given Origin Power food suitable for consumption by the vast majority of insect races in an Origin Power cycle.
Lord Dingfeng also knew that this price was indeed very fair, so it said, "I'll buy it. Do you have ordinary soul-type Origin Power foods?"
Lord Ziyun Mountain handed the spider silk bag containing the remaining God-Given Sea Soul Seeds to Lord Dingfeng and quickly replied: "Yes, there are many of these. Lord-level soul-type Origin Power foods are 15 Origin Stones each."
Lord Ziyun Mountain gave a very affordable price for ordinary Sea Soul Seeds. It had to purchase them from Lord Ginkgo at 12 Origin Stones per seed, earning only 25% per seed. It was understandable to ask for a higher price for unique items, but asking for too high a price for ordinary Origin Power foods would easily offend customers.
Lord Greengrass Mountain handed a full medium-sized spider silk bag of Sea Soul Seeds to Lord Dingfeng for inspection.
Lord Dingfeng estimated the price and was quite satisfied: "Give me five hundred seeds."
Lord Torch Mountain calculated the bill on the side: "Five God-Given Sea Soul Seeds, eight hundred Origin Stones per seed, totaling four thousand Origin Stones.
Five hundred Sea Soul Seeds, fifteen Origin Stones per seed, totaling seven hundred and fifty Origin Stones."
Lord Ziyun Mountain continued to promote: "Do you want two strength-type God-Given Cone Chestnuts?
The price is cheap, 650 Origin Stones per seed."
Lord Dingfeng hesitated for a moment and shook the antennae on its head: "Too expensive, can't afford it. Do you have ordinary strength-type Origin Power foods? I'll just buy some ordinary strength-type Origin Power foods."
Although the Silkworm Moths also lacked strength enhancement, strength-type was far less important to them than soul-type.
Lord Greengrass Mountain hurriedly opened a spider silk bag: "Yes, yes, yes, ten Origin Stones per seed. How many do you want?"
"Give me five hundred seeds too!"
Sangling's financial resources were much richer than Bloodvine Lake's. They owned two wild God-Given Mulberry trees, one of which was a dual-quality God-Given Seed. Lords could produce Origin Power foods worth more than 200,000 Origin Stones every year.
Every year, several trade caravans came at different times to trade.
"Okay." Lord Ziyun Mountain recommended, and Lord Greengrass Mountain provided the goods. They cooperated very well.
Lord Ziyun Mountain: "Lord Dingfeng, what else do you want? I have a life-type God-Given Durian here,
Do you want to take it?"
Lord Dingfeng swayed its antennae: "Is there only one? Then leave it for Lord Feathercrack Mountain. Maybe it can awaken life-type skills if it eats more life-type Origin Power foods."
"Okay." It was fine as long as someone bought it. As for who it was sold to? It didn't care.
