Chapter 911: Not Enough Quantity~

In the safe route of the star region, the massive Hidden Spirit Island caught the attention of all nearby Star Ship fleets and immortal ship fleets.

On a giant spiritual ship, a true immortal pointed at the distant Hidden Spirit Island and said enviously, “Give me another 10,000 years, and when I become a Grand Leader, I’ll be able to command a spiritual ship that can cross star regions.”

“Not to mention, just its sheer size makes others think twice before messing with it.”

A little supervisor from a merchant association couldn’t help but drool with envy.

In his eyes, a celestial ship of this level could easily navigate the dangerous parts of the star region and trade with those unique middle thousand worlds, which meant mountains of Immortal Jade.

Meanwhile, Xu Fan, sipping tea, received countless friend requests.

“Master, within the detectable range, 103 merchant fleets have sent us messages requesting trade. There are also three nearby middle thousand worlds and two small worlds inviting us,” Grape reported.

“I didn’t expect Hidden Spirit Island to be so popular here,” Xu Fan said with a smile, taking a sip of his fragrant tea.

“Grand Elder, just our Hidden Spirit Island, which is like a celestial ship, is enough to draw their attention,” Pang Fu chimed in.

“Grape, which middle thousand world are we heading to now?” Xu Fan asked.

“Master, there’s a relatively large little Immortal Realm nearby, specifically for hosting merchant fleets traveling through the Immortal Realm. As long as our vessel is at the celestial ship level, we can enter for free, and they’ll provide accommodations.”

“I’ve already sent our information, and we’ll arrive in three days,” Grape replied.

Xu Fan nodded and added, “Invite those merchant associations that requested trade. Our sect’s been running low on Immortal Jade lately.”

It’s worth noting that Hidden Spirit Island consumes Immortal Jade when traveling at full speed through space. It’s been over 40 years since they last received any Immortal Jade.

“Understood, Master~”

Soon, Hidden Spirit Island extended a small island for the merchant fleets to dock.

Not long after, four or five Star Ship fleets landed on the small island.

As several managers stepped off their ships, they exchanged glances, each with a hint of hostility in their eyes.

“I’ve been trading in the star region for 30,000 years, and I’ve never seen such a unique celestial ship—it’s as big as the main ship of the Tianding Merchant Association. This force must be significant, probably from another Immortal Realm across the star region,” said a manager in a blue robe.

“I got the trade request approval and came straight here. I hope there’s something good. Let’s stick to our own specialties and not break the rules,” another manager in a yellow robe said, eyeing the others suspiciously.

“Let’s keep things friendly; it’s bad form to start fighting before anything’s even been shown,” another manager said with a chuckle.

At that moment, Pang Fu appeared on the small island.

Instantly, the managers turned their attention to him.

He was a fellow trader, focused on the wide road of commerce.

Just sensing Pang Fu’s presence made the managers drop their petty schemes.

Pang Fu glanced at the other managers and smiled slightly.

With a wave of his hand, a small conference area rose from the ground.

A light curtain appeared in the air, displaying various magical treasures, spirit ores, celestial tools, puppets, and spirit pills that Hidden Spirit Island had to offer—truly a treasure trove.

“Please take your seats. Each of you can send me a list of what your merchant association can trade, and I’ll contact you if there’s a need.”

Pang Fu radiated the aura of a seasoned merchant, making the managers feel like they were in for a tough negotiation.

As Pang Fu finished speaking, over a dozen more Star Ship fleets landed on the small island.

Several more Star Ship fleets prepared to land on this island.

Suddenly, the entire conference area became lively.

All the managers had a small light curtain in front of them to check and view the quantity and quality of the items available for trade from Hidden Spirit Island.

A team of puppets walked out from inside Hidden Spirit Island, carrying tea trays to serve spirit tea to the managers seated in the conference area.

Before long, a captivating aroma of tea filled the entire venue.

“Spirit tea crafted by a master of the tea ceremony!”

The managers present were well-versed in the art and all marveled at Hidden Spirit Island’s generosity.

Spirit tea itself wasn’t rare, but what made it special was that these were crafted by a tea ceremony master.

Just this kind of spirit tea, a single tael could be worth hundreds of Immortal Jade in the outer star realms.

A manager with some understanding of tea gently picked up a tea cup and took a sip, his eyes immediately brightening.

“What do you think, manager? What grade does this tea belong to?” the little supervisor beside him asked.

“The 10,000-year-old Qing Ling tea tree, plus crafted by a tea ceremony master. This is top-tier spirit tea in the mortal realm, worth at least 240 Immortal Jade per tael. As long as we can price it below 200 Immortal Jade.”

“If we buy in bulk, we’ll profit; if it’s a small quantity, we can gift it as a favor. It looks like we can’t lose,” the manager said, looking at the massive light curtain above, searching for the spirit tea section, but found nothing.

“Excuse me, why is there no spirit tea available for sale? My merchant association is willing to pay a high price,” the manager called out to Pang Fu.

Pang Fu simply glanced at the manager and replied, “The spirit tea you tasted is reserved for our sect’s hospitality. If you wish to buy, please offer a price.”

Sensing Pang Fu’s shrewd merchant atmosphere, the manager cautiously said, “How about 120 Immortal Jade per tael?”

This price gave him ample room for negotiation later.

“220 Immortal Jade is the lowest price, no other sales at this level.”

With just one sentence, the tea-savvy manager realized defeat.

“How could he pinpoint my bottom line so precisely? The youth is indeed formidable!”

220 Immortal Jade per tael, unyielding at that price, struck the manager’s heart directly and shattered his defenses.

“2,000 jins, Immortal Jade to be paid on-site,” the manager gritted his teeth, for those Immortal Jade were his savings prepared for a hundred years of trading among the star regions, which he had now laid all on the table.

“Manager, we won’t make much profit this way!” the supervisor beside him quickly said.

“No other option; this batch of spirit tea can become a complimentary product for our association. We’ll earn the money back from other sales,” the manager calculated, thinking of the strategy.

Unbeknownst to him, Pang Fu simply smiled and replied,

“Not enough quantity~”

“How much is considered large~”

“5,000 jins~”

At that moment, the tea-savvy manager’s little head started racing.

Meanwhile, three other managers were also inquiring about spirit tea from Pang Fu.

In the conference area, Pang Fu effortlessly dealt with all the managers present.

His commanding aura and merchant cunning evoked a sense of awe from all the managers coming for trade.

“What kind of force is this to have such a manager!”
