Cheng Shuili chose a suitable trade from the string of options. She acquired a large water container for five iron blocks.
One liter capacity, just right.
She had just returned to the trading channel when she saw the message posted by New Snow Clearing.
Cheng Shuili offered a cold smile; she was already planning to increase the price for processing services.
In this way, the demand for water containers would certainly increase.
Cheng Shuili had considered whether to handle this business herself, but the thought of bartering made her head ache.
Selling too high would bring a bad reputation, while selling too low would be a waste of effort.
Cheng Shuili wasn't afraid of being cursed at, but she mainly found it troublesome. Doing it order by order was too tiring, and the energy and time spent were simply not proportional to the gains.
Cheng Shuili had also thought about whether to tell Liang Shanbo in advance.
After a moment of reflection on her personality, she felt she wasn't well-suited for it. Clearly marked prices were easy for Liang Shanbo, but this kind of buying and selling...
Cheng Shuili really worried she would lose money instead of making it.
New Snow Clearing, however, was a different story.
It was true that her sense of smell for business was sharp, and it was also true that she was quite bold.
But if you intend to use my momentum to make this windfall, yet don't offer me any benefits at all, that's a bit unreasonable, isn't it?
If Cheng Shuili were determined to wear her down and kept silent about the processing service, her water containers would just rot in her hands.
Eh?
Cheng Shuili slowly lifted her head. This person really had delivered herself to her doorstep.
She found it too much trouble to do, but this person could do it for her.
Compared to a stalemate where neither made money, Cheng Shuili naturally preferred a win-win situation!
She clicked on the private chat with New Snow Clearing, thought for a moment, and sent a question mark.
【Angry Crow Takes Flight】：？
The reply from the other side came quickly, and the attitude was very sincere.
【New Snow Clearing】：Big shot！
"You have received a gift from player New Snow Clearing: Vehicle Upgrade Material Shards x4!"
Cheng Shuili now had 70 vehicle upgrade material shards on hand.
After the matter of the protective barrier came up, the price of this item had remained high. She hadn't even said anything yet, and this person had already sent this over; it really was...
Full of sincerity.
【New Snow Clearing】：This is the most expensive thing I have. I wanted to contact you earlier, but I couldn't find the time, and then you came to me. I feel quite embarrassed.
"You have received a gift from player New Snow Clearing: Weilong Spicy Strips x1, Minute Maid Orange Juice x1"
【New Snow Clearing】：Big shot！ Please accept.
Cheng Shuili remained silent for a moment. This person was much more smooth than she had imagined.
【Angry Crow Takes Flight】：Accepted.
New Snow Clearing smiled; this was a sign of her approval!
It wasn't just approval, but also a signal that there was indeed money to be made from the water containers!
Her heart, which had been hanging, finally settled. She let out a long breath and immediately climbed up the ladder.
【New Snow Clearing】：Thank you for your cultivation, boss!
Who is your boss?
Cheng Shuili frowned, but a moment later, she relaxed.
It wasn't necessarily a bad thing.
Cheng Shuili opened the regional channel and took a look; quite a few people were mocking New Snow Clearing.
【Super Twist Car】：Are you not a big shot? You're actually following along and collecting them too? The big shot might be in the lead, but it doesn't mean everyone needs the same things. Are you really not afraid of being stuck with them? Are you going to hold a pile of water bottles and drink the northwest wind later?
【The Night I Divorced My Mistress】：Did you starve your brain? I can't think of any use for a water container, anyway, I won't need one.
【Heartbroken】：Buddy, are you pure gambling? Very good! If you dare to bet, you must dare to lose. Don't cry if you starve to death!
【Don't Be Afraid】：The guy above has a whole set of little phrases. But can you all stop talking? This is the trading channel, not the regional channel!
Cheng Shuili could see these messages, and New Snow Clearing naturally could too. She smiled and acted as if she hadn't seen them.
What pure gambling?
She had only said she was collecting; those people had indeed sent her many trades, but she hadn't agreed to a single one.
At most, this is called pre-ordering!
New Snow Clearing had planned from the start to use the Crow to fish out information before buying, and looking at the Crow's reaction, it was clear there was money to be made!
She wasn't a greedy person; the opportunity was given by the Crow, so naturally, the profits had to be shared with the Crow.
The Crow hadn't replied to that 'boss' message yet, but New Snow Clearing wasn't frustrated. After thinking, she sent another message.
【New Snow Clearing】：Boss, let's split it sixty-forty! I take forty, you take sixty. If you think that's too little, we can do thirty-seventy! I am absolutely not the type of person who wants everything! You gave me the opportunity; it doesn't matter how much I make. I will always remember this favor from you, boss!
Too straightforward!
Cheng Shuili gasped and shook her head; this person had truly surrendered herself completely.
She was even blunt enough to catch Cheng Shuili off guard, but she felt more admiration than anything else.
In this apocalyptic survival game, most people were either greedily limitless or timid and indecisive. A player as shrewd yet tactful as this was truly rare.
【Angry Crow Takes Flight】：Fifty-fifty, I won't take advantage of you. You collect as much as you can for now. Tomorrow, I will make you earn a fortune.
Cheng Shuili raised the corners of her mouth slightly after sending this message.
She intentionally held back, not revealing the use of the water container immediately. If New Snow Clearing didn't even have this much trust in her, then the cooperation wasn't worth discussing.
The reply from the other side was almost instantaneous.
【New Snow Clearing】：The boss is straightforward! It's settled. I'm going to start collecting now, swapping all my supplies for water containers. I'll send you the transaction logs later; then it will be clear exactly how much we've made!
Whoa.
Cheng Shuili couldn't help but curve her lips; she had picked up a great treasure.
She understood human nature and worldly wisdom too well.
Cheng Shuili opened the regional channel and watched for a while.
【New Snow Clearing】：Collecting water containers.
【New Snow Clearing】：Collecting water containers, send trades directly. I will accept as long as the price is reasonable.
【New Snow Clearing】：Collecting water containers, bottles, and jars!!!
【Myth】：@New Snow Clearing, are you fucking crazy? Stop spamming! Those willing to sell would have found you long ago! Just because the Crow said one sentence about wanting water containers, you really think it's a business opportunity? Wait two days and see if the water containers are useless, and you'll starve to death! The big shot won't be there to collect your corpse!
【Shao Yang】：Is there any need to curse so harshly? It gives the impression of a dark rat who lacks the courage himself and is deathly afraid of others making a profit.
【Yun Shui Han】：It's not that I'm saying anything, but following a big shot to collect one item is really too crazy, isn't it? Is there no sense of reason at all? Why is a big shot a big shot? They have information and items in their hands. What's useful to them might not be useful to us! @New Snow Clearing, a word of advice: collect less. Don't end up really stuck with them and have nowhere to cry when you lose it all.
This advice from Yun Shui Han was quite sensible, but unfortunately, New Snow Clearing had already gained her approval.
However, this New Snow Clearing was truly brave. Cheng Shuili shook her head; wasn't she worried that she might be lying to her?
That was Cheng Shuili's perspective, but from New Snow Clearing's point of view, it was an entirely different story.
First, the Crow was number one on the dual leaderboards, far ahead of everyone else! She must know many things that they didn't!
Second, the Crow left a very good impression on her. When they were in the dungeon, it was true the Crow was selling information, but the things she accepted in trade were extremely plain and simple. She was clearly not the type of person with poor character.
Finally, New Snow Clearing hoped that she could latch onto the Crow's thigh.
