Getting grain is easy.
Is this the intermediate matching card that can find complementary trading partners?
How wonderful!
"Five hundred tons?" Vivi's eyes lit up.
This much grain is enough for her soldiers to consume for half a month, enough to relieve the immediate crisis.
But then she thought for a moment and said:
"What about vegetables, fruits, and meat? Can you provide those?"
These are all rare goods, and distributing them to the soldiers can greatly boost morale.
After thinking for a while, before Su Yi could act coyly, she took out a delicate glass bottle from her personal storage space, containing some light green liquid, about 500ml:
"This is the Water of Life from the Moon Lake of the Elven race. Would you be willing to exchange it for your grain?"
As she spoke, she pulled out the cork.
Su Yi immediately smelled a refreshing fragrance.
His spirit, which had been somewhat listless due to worrying about work and staying up late for days, was immediately lifted.
At the same time, information about the related item appeared in the transaction system.
[Water of Life: Spring water containing rich vitality. Direct consumption can cure all diseases, prolong life, and enhance physical fitness. Long-term consumption can also promote human evolution. Please explore more uses on your own.]
"Good stuff!" Su Yi couldn't help but exclaim, his eyes lighting up.
Putting aside everything else, just the fact that it can cure all diseases is enough for this Water of Life to sell for a sky-high price on Blue Star!
However, the system didn't mention the usage and dosage of the Water of Life.
It's hard to determine the exact value of this bottle of Water of Life.
And when doing business, one naturally wants to maximize their own interests.
Therefore, after a slight hesitation, Su Yi stared at Vivi, or rather, at a certain ornament on her head, and said:
"If you need fruits, vegetables, and meat, I can provide ten tons, but it will probably take some time to prepare."
"As for this Water of Life, I can't determine its value for the time being. I would prefer to trade it for other items, such as gold."
"I can use 50 tons of grain to exchange for this bottle of Water of Life. Of course, if after trying it I determine that its value far exceeds this grain, I will definitely give you compensation in the future. This can be written into the transaction contract."
"Gold..." Vivi frowned slightly, but didn't feel displeased.
The two worlds are completely different, and the trading process is a process of testing each other's bottom line.
She wasn't so fragile that she would get angry just because someone questioned the effect of the Water of Life.
Moreover, the Water of Life she gave was indeed a bit fishy. It wasn't the original liquid from the Moon Lake of the Elven race, but a product that had been diluted. In her opinion, the effect was just average, and it really wasn't worth that much grain.
After a little thought, combining the value of gold in her world, Vivi quoted a price that violated the spirit of chivalry:
"One kilogram of gold for 10 tons of grain."
"As for this bottle of Water of Life, it will be used to trade for the extra 10 tons of fruits, vegetables, and meat."
After speaking, she stared into Su Yi's eyes, very seriously, and said:
"This is my bottom line."
Su Yi couldn't help but breathe more heavily when he heard this.
According to the current gold price of more than 550 yuan per gram, the market price of one kilogram of gold is no less than 550,000 yuan, and even if it is sold through special channels, at least 400,000 to 500,000 yuan can be obtained!
And the price of ten tons of grain...
Their food processing plant purchases some old grain. The purchase price of flour is less than 2,500 yuan per ton, and rice is even cheaper, less than 2,000 yuan per ton.
Ten tons of rice can sell for 20,000 yuan at most.
This is more than twenty times the profit in one transaction, it's simply a bloodbath!
"Deal!"
Su Yi nodded decisively.
Of course, he could probably guess that since the other party could give such a price, it meant that gold might not be rare in her world.
At least more than on Blue Star.
Although Vivi said it was the bottom line, as long as he continued to lower the price, he should be able to earn more.
But when doing business, it's enough as long as you have a profit.
The current price is already an extremely terrifying profit for him, so there is no need to continue to lower the price.
He wasn't so greedy as to desperately squeeze his partners in order to obtain more benefits for himself.
A healthy development model is one where everyone has something to gain.
Vivi visibly breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this.
As the princess of the Crimson Sun Empire, a genius in both magic and martial arts, she was really not good at doing business.
Seeing that the other party agreed so quickly, she also felt a little more favorable towards Su Yi, and decisively took out the gold she had already prepared.
This thing is also valuable in her world. She had made full preparations before opening the transaction, so she would naturally bring these.
Boom~!
A heavy small wooden box appeared on the low table.
"These are all spoils I once obtained in the dragon's lair, all gold with very few impurities."
As she spoke, she opened the box.
Inside was a pile of golden coins, almost blinding Su Yi.
Of course, because gold has a high density, fifty kilograms of gold sounds like a lot, but it doesn't actually look like much.
It didn't even fill this small wooden box.
Su Yi glanced at the information revealed by the trading platform. It was indeed gold, and it was pure gold with a purity of over 99.99%!
But looking at those gold coins, he couldn't help but think of another problem.
These gold coins are all in the shape of gold coins, and there are some complex reliefs carved on them.
If he takes them back like this, how to sell them will be a big problem.
He can't possibly have to buy a set of equipment himself to melt all this gold, right?
After thinking about it, Su Yi directly expressed his concerns to Vivi.
There was nothing to hide. The existence of the trading platform was definitely the biggest secret in their respective worlds for them members.
Vivi would also have to find a way to hide the source of the grain after obtaining it from him, so she expressed great understanding of the problem he said, and immediately said:
"This is simple, you can make them look like whatever you want."
As soon as she finished speaking, her crimson eyes seemed... not seemed, but really ignited with flames!
Su Yi only felt a terrifying aura erupting from her.
The next moment, scorching flames appeared out of thin air, and in an instant, melted the pile of gold coins into a mass of molten gold, which was bound by an invisible force and floated in the air.
The trading platform does not allow mutual attacks, and there are very strict contract terms to restrict it.
But it will not prevent members from using their abilities within the space.
When Su Yi heard Vivi talking about the Elven race and the Water of Life, he could probably guess that the other party probably came from a fantasy magic world.
But seeing this supernatural power with his own eyes, the shock it brought him was still indescribable.
"Awesome!"
After the shock, he could only give two words of evaluation.
Vivi tilted her head and asked:
"What kind of gold is easier to sell on your side?"
Su Yi came back to his senses and quickly described the appearance of a gold ingot to her.
He thought that Vivi should have some similar magic to control the molten gold to become the shape he wanted.
He never expected that after figuring out what a gold ingot looked like, Vivi would actually put her slender hands into the suspended thick molten gold, and soon hand-rubbed a solid big ingot for him.
Su Yi: ...
What kind of ruthless iron hands are these!
When you were learning magic, didn't anyone tell you that you are not allowed to use magic in front of Muggles?
