Chapter 2899: Meeting (7)
Money, that is, gold coins.
Gold coins are good.
But useless.
What truly matters is not the gold coins, but the supplies obtained with them.
Then using those supplies to strengthen one's own power—those are the things useful on the eve of war.
As for gold coins…they no longer matter between life and death.
After all, right now gold coins can't buy what Zhao Chi wants.
Bartering works.
Yao Feng shook her head: "I have no use for money right now. Don't you all have techniques too? You can trade with your techniques, or with the products of your techniques."
Zhao Quan nodded: "Alright, let's talk prices."
Yao Feng said: "The three standard items split evenly below this tier need no further discussion—Elven Bow, fine grade 20 gold coins, superior grade 80 gold coins. Finger guards are cheap, fine grade 7 gold coins, superior grade 28 gold coins. As for Wind-Chasing Arrows…"
Yao Feng hesitated.
Zhao Chi had not improved the Wind-Chasing Arrows with Tier 3 materials, so they were only conventionally super-improved Wind-Chasing Arrows—strong, certainly, but rather lackluster compared to the others.
"Fine-grade Wind-Chasing Arrows, 1 gold coin for 200 arrows; superior grade, 1 gold coin for 50 arrows."
Gongsun Po asked: "Captain Yao, these Wind-Chasing Arrows don't seem to be made of Tier 3 materials. Can they be fully improved with Tier 3 materials, like the Elven Bows and those fashion items?"
"Well…"
Yao Feng needed to ask Zhao Chi.
But Zhao Chi was right behind her now, so she definitely couldn't turn around to ask—she couldn't reveal that Zhao Chi was the source of the techniques.
Just as she was about to send a text message, she received one from Zhao Chi.
Zhao Chi 【Yes】
Yao Feng smiled slightly: "Yes."
Gongsun Po nodded: "Then what's the price for Tier 3 material Wind-Chasing Arrows?"
"Superior grade, 1 gold coin for 10 arrows; fine grade, 1 gold coin for 40 arrows."
"Mm…understood." Gongsun Po nodded, accepting it.
1 gold coin for 10 arrows—that's 1000 copper coins per arrow. The cost isn't low.
But once the Wind-Chasing Arrows are fully improved with Tier 3 materials, their power is also extremely strong.
Although expensive, these high-quality Wind-Chasing Arrows certainly aren't for ordinary shooting—they're for burst use when fighting powerful enemies.
Compared to victory, this cost is certainly worth paying.
After all, defeat leaves you with nothing.
At this point, Yao Feng had basically finished.
Although there were still the Mystic Maiden Armor techniques and various female weapon techniques, Yao Feng did not bring those out.
Because weapons and armor are produced too slowly, and Tier 3 metal materials are also scarce.
Better to focus solely on fashion items and bows.
And even so, the fashion items might not cover everyone—only that the more people covered, the better.
After Yao Feng finished speaking, Wang Zhongsheng had not dared to speak the whole time.
Afraid Yao Feng would pull out yet another technique.
Yao Feng smiled: "Army Commander Wang, your turn."
Only then did Wang Zhongsheng begin to present and introduce his techniques.
The venue then livened up again.
Although the other techniques didn't have the absurdly high stats of Zhao Chi's, they each had their own unique features, or were stronger than Zhao Chi's fashion items for specific scenarios and races.
Moreover, Zhao Chi's fashion items only targeted humanoid females and elves—males and other races needed other techniques too.
So everyone remained enthusiastic.
This meeting went on for over four hours straight, finally ending at 1 a. m.
Zhao Quan exhaled in relief: "Finally over. Today really was a bountiful harvest."
Jin Xin nodded: "Right, everyone keep the battle plan confidential. If the werewolves find out…we'll be in a very passive position."
Wang Xiao said: "Captain Yao, I'll collect the divine artifact fragments shortly. Let's find a central territory and trade as soon as possible?"
Yao Feng smiled: "No problem."
Chang Xian said: "Our main force is in our own territory. I'll gather supplies as quickly as possible and send people to the southwestern front to trade soon."
Wang Zhongsheng said: "Same here."
Jiang Yang smiled: "Same here."
Yao Feng said: "No need to rush. My side still has some stock for now—the first batch will definitely give everyone enough superior-grade fashion items. So shall we go prepare now?"
"Alright, meeting adjourned!" Jin Xin stood up and vanished.
Zhao Quan smiled at Zhao Chi, then vanished.
Zhao Tan also gave Zhao Chi a deep look, glanced casually at Li Ruanyu and Shangguan Ting—whose eyes were still sharp—and vanished.
The other lords vanished one after another.
Li Ruanyu said to Zhao Chi: "Alright, just click 'leave' in the system. Let's go too."
"Okay."
Zhao Chi clicked leave.
In an instant, he felt a slight ringing in his ears.
When he came back to himself, he and Li Ruanyu were back in Li Ruanyu's room.
Li Ruanyu laughed and said, "This meeting finally has some substantive progress."
Zhao Chi nodded and took off his formal attire.
Li Ruanyu laughed and said, "What are you doing? Why is it that the moment you come to my room, this is what happens?"
Zhao Chi leaned close and said, "It's just past midnight, so whatever you have going on, put it aside for now—your husband is coming to dote on you properly."
Saying that, he reached for Li Ruanyu's clothes.
Li Ruanyu stepped back and said, "Hey, hey, you're going to tear my clothes—I'll do it myself."
"Mm, go kneel on the sofa, and lift yourself up a bit higher."
