If it’s suitable, I’ll take it directly. If it’s not suitable, I’m not someone who’s good at bargaining, so I won’t take it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Xi was aware of how talented he was at bargaining.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn’t unaware that certain things could be expensive, but he really lacked the talent for bargaining, so he simply asked for a price directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the price made him satisfied, he would buy it. If it was too high, he wouldn’t haggle, and that would be it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This straightforwardness caught Lei Pengpeng off guard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If there was a bargaining episode, Lei Pengpeng could talk someone’s ear off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now Gu Xi clearly stated that he wouldn’t haggle with you; you name your price, and if he’s satisfied, he’ll buy it immediately, regardless of whether there is any markup within. If unsatisfied, he won’t buy it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This simple and direct attitude made Lei Pengpeng hesitate for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, she spoke, \"Alright, I’ll say a few words, and Comrade Gu can see if he agrees with them. If he agrees, we’ll make the deal at this price; if not, we’ll just consider ourselves friends, and leave it at that.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good, I like straightforward people like you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Xi decisively agreed to Lei Pengpeng’s quoting method.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Lei Pengpeng began calculating on her own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Comrade Gu, let’s first consider from your perspective. Using this White Bone Demon Lamp from us allows you to get a level 1 White Bone Magic Tower instantly. Doesn’t that save on materials?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So I will charge for the cost of materials; that’s not too much, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not too much.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Xi thought about it seriously and realized that this requirement wasn’t too excessive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he had bought an architectural design plan to build it himself, he would still need to pay this part of the cost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then that’s settled. Now we’re saving you construction time as well. You’ll have to pay for that, too, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Pengpeng added another comment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having used the Little House Backpack in the past, Gu Xi knew that you just place it down and a new building appears, which indeed saved construction time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s not too much either.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then I’ll calculate based on the current market price of building stones: one building stone costs 500 negative energy. If you don’t believe me, feel free to ask around; it’s the same price everywhere.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, I agree with that.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Xi thought about it seriously and realized it was indeed the case. Although he wasn’t concerned about waiting time, since it was already factored in, he naturally had to agree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Gu Xi was so agreeable, Lei Pengpeng became happy too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Next comes the most crucial part. I won’t talk about how much effort it took us to complete this task; I’ll just go by the market price for large architectural design plans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A large architectural design plan requires at least one unit of Dragon Steel.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hold on, how much did you say?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Xi was stunned after hearing that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"One unit of Dragon Steel; that’s the standard price, and if it’s for a particularly good large architectural design plan, the price may go higher.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I quoted too low.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Xi slapped his thigh, realizing he had underquoted to Liu Kai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What?\" Lei Pengpeng didn’t understand. She didn’t think Gu Xi would say that she had underquoted her own price.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nothing. Where did you see this market price for large architectural design plans?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead of answering Lei Pengpeng’s question, Gu Xi asked his own question.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s just the price now. I’ve asked several buyers, and they’re only willing to offer that amount.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This answer made Gu Xi rub his forehead, realizing that without having their own market, material prices tended to be so chaotic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay, there’s no problem with the price you mentioned.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Xi didn’t consider too much else. The price of this item in front of him wasn’t exaggerated; apart from being uncertain about the Dragon Steel to large architectural design plan ratio, everything else could be verified.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this regard, Lei Pengpeng wasn’t trying to cheat him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, there was nothing to discuss about the price; since Gu Xi genuinely needed this item, he naturally went ahead and bought it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s make the deal: one unit of Dragon Steel, 2000 negative energy, 10 units of stone, and 10 units of wood. All are here; please check.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the resources Gu Xi easily took out made Lei Pengpeng somewhat astounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A tycoon, huh.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Average, but this recent battle was fought hard, and the rewards are a bit higher. Why, do you have more good stuff?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I do, but it’s not an architectural design plan. Take a look at this, see if you’ll like it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For such a tycoon, Lei Pengpeng didn’t want to let go of the opportunity, so she quickly rummaged through her backpack.\u003C\u002Fp>",1271,"2026-06-10T07:09:16.025Z",1,"novelbin.me","1e59fa78671c582af940d6f19bd297edc66486489595f76fa8add430d26476d3","undead-mage-from-a-cell-chapter-200","undead-mage-from-a-cell-chapter-247",860,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fundead-mage-from-a-cell-cover.jpg"]
