Chapter 1310

Gu Qing smiled and said: "According to what you said, these 500 tons of grain are only the output of a small town, and those 10,000 experience fruits are a bit more sensitive, but they're only worth 350 gold coins in goods, so they won't attract too much attention either."

Zhao Chi nodded: "Yes, that's right."

Gu Qing smiled and said: "So, you don't need to go to the trading house at all for these supplies. The Zhaojia Society can consume all of them. Why go far when there's a closer option? And selling to the Zhaojia Society would be even less conspicuous, right? Besides, the Zhaojia Society's consumption should be far more than this. You could even increase the quantity."

The Zhaojia Society?

Zhao Chi's eyes lit up: "Great idea!"

If it's sold to the Zhaojia Society, it won't reach the trading house at all, and it'll be safer.

And they're the same family, with blood ties as a bond, so of course there's more assurance.

Although some people in the Zhaojia Society had gossiped about Zhao Chi before, no one had actually harmed him.

On the contrary, after he became a lord and achieved some results, they treated him quite well.

In these chaotic times, family is indeed more trustworthy than outsiders.

Zhao Chi praised: "Gu Qing, your idea is indeed good. I'll contact the Zhaojia Society right now."

"No, not you."

Gu Qing grabbed Zhao Chi's hand.

"Not me?" Zhao Chi looked at Gu Qing in surprise.

Gu Qing smiled and said: "Just have Su Qin contact the Zhaojia Society. Why do you need to step forward?"

"Su Qin?"

Zhao Chi immediately began thinking.

Su Qin is Zhao Chi's concubine, and the entire Zhaojia Society knows this.

Moreover, Su Qin was previously also from the Zhaojia Society.

To Su Qin, the Zhaojia Society is both her maiden family and her husband's family.

Having her make the contact is indeed fine.

Then why have her make the contact?

To separate Zhao Chi from it?

To give Zhao Chi an extra layer of protection?

Gu Qing smiled and said: "Look at that expression of yours. Can't figure it out?"

Zhao Chi shook his head: "I can think of some reasons, but I still want to hear your thoughts."

Gu Qing said:

"The grain and experience fruits are all produced on our side, so it's fine for you to sell them directly to the Zhaojia Society.

"But our output isn't just this much. This month is still fine, we're still in the land reclamation stage, but what about next month?

"By then our grain will fill the warehouses, and we'll have to worry about sales channels.

"If we sell in large quantities at that time, it'll inevitably attract people's attention.

"But we can still sell through the Zhaojia Society, putting one layer of separation on the grain's origin information.

"But one layer isn't safe enough either. If we add another layer through Su Qin, it'll be even safer.

"And Su Qin's relationship with you and the Zhaojia Society is very close. The Zhaojia Society won't harm her.

"Even if Su Qin encounters danger, there's still you as a fallback, isn't there?"

"Also, I think Su Qin's social skills might be quite a bit better than yours. Leaving these matters to her would be better than handling them yourself. You don't mind me saying that, do you? Hehe."

Zhao Chi nodded.

What Gu Qing said was indeed correct.

She had helped Zhao Chi think of a path for selling the grain.

From Zhao Chi, to Su Qin, then to the Zhaojia Society, and then to the World-Breaking Army.

The more links in the middle, the harder it is to discover Zhao Chi.

As for Su Qin's danger... there would almost be none, or at least very little.

Not bad!

Zhao Chi smiled and said: "Understood. Your suggestion is very good. I'll go find Su Qin to discuss this matter, and the next sale volume can also be increased a bit."

Gu Qing nodded: "Have Su Qin keep it secret, and don't tell the Zhaojia Society that it's produced on your side."

Zhao Chi said: "Mm, I understand that. What about the master-level insights? Do you have any suggestions?"

Gu Qing shook her head: "I don't know much about this kind of thing, so I can't give you detailed suggestions. But I still think you should go to the trading house first to understand the situation, and then decide."

Zhao Chi said: "Understood. Thanks for the suggestion."

Gu Qing smiled and said: "You're welcome. Are you leaving now? Tang Ruan said you haven't eaten yet. Do you want to eat first?"

Zhao Chi said: "No need, I'll just grab a bite. I'll leave the territory to you."

"Mm, rest assured."

The next moment, Zhao Chi arrived at Su Qin's territory.

Su Qin was communicating with her teammates about mission situations.

Zhao Chi waited beside her for a while.

"Alright, communication done." Su Qin smiled and sat beside Zhao Chi.

There are many bamboo furnishings in Su Qin's territory.

Bamboo tables and bamboo chairs, many placed outdoors.

Usually the elves eat and rest here, it's indeed very pleasant.

"From what you're saying, you're going to raid the beast camp next week?"

Su Qin nodded: "Yes, we're planning to set out on November 20th. That way our squad's mission quota for this month will be met, and I can complete your share too. You don't need to do it."

Zhao Chi laughed, "Then I'd really be living off a woman."

Su Qin laughed, "What's wrong with living off a woman? Soft food is easy to digest — I think it's great."

Zhao Chi nodded and told her about making her the agent.

Su Qin grew more and more excited as she listened.

Finally she agreed eagerly: "Of course, no problem — leave it to me. I'll go talk it over with Third Brother and the others."

Zhao Chi said, "If they ask where it came from, just say it's a commission from some planting master, and it's not convenient to reveal."

Su Qin laughed, "I get it — just like that oil-making master you had before. I won't give you away."

"Haha, exactly, just like that."

"So should I go now?"

Zhao Chi shook his head: "No rush. I need to transport the grain and experience fruits to your place first. Do you have the manpower? Send twenty over, have them carry it here."

Su Qin nodded: "Of course. Li Qi! Could you come here a moment!"

Right after, Su Qin briefed Li Qi on the matter.

Li Qi bowed: "Understood, leave it to me. I'll head out now."

Zhao Chi nodded: "Sorry for the trouble. In Penglai Town, look for Gu Qing."

Li Qi said, "Got it, I understand."

After Li Qi left, Zhao Chi said, "That's all the matters. I'm heading to the exchange — are you coming?"

Su Qin asked, "Is selling the grain and experience fruits urgent? If not, I'll go with you, and we can find Third Brother and the others after we get back."

"Not urgent. The moving will take a while anyway, so come with me."

"Mm, alright~"

Having arranged things with Su Qin, they set off together.

Though Jia Ya Town was bare everywhere, with very little greenery.

The air quality was still fairly decent right now.

Perhaps because the wind was strong.

The enormous cliff to the west had now become a scenic spot.

Anyone just arriving at Jia Ya Town would go take a look.

Zhao Chi and Su Qin made their way to the town center and entered the exchange.

The exchange always had quite a few people.

A staff member smiled: "Mr., what business can I help you with?"

Zhao Chi handed over a "Master Tailor's Insights": "I want to sell these insights. Could you provide the recent transaction records? I only need the prices."

The staff member glanced at it briefly, then handed it back.
