Kai Li felt her grip on the jade slip loosen as wind took it away from her. The jade slip was lifted up by the wind and brought to Lin Wu.

'System, scan it and see how we can make it advantageous to us.' Lin Wu commanded.

He had already seen the actions of Kai Li before on the monitoring screens and knew that she was no simple woman. In fact, the way she could keep up her composure despite being in front of him alone was a proof of her slyness.

After all, even the envoy of the Long clan, Long Qingao was anxious upon seeing Lin Wu and he was far stronger than her.

Lin Wu could also tell that the Elder Ruanjian was similar to that and was actually ready to act any moment before something happened. He could sense the faint spirit Qi trying to move within the body of the man.

Unfortunately for him, no matter how much he tried, the radiation was suppressing it all.

The system scanned the jade slip and soon listed tens of lines in front of Lin Wu.

'Hmm… she did manage to slip some terms that would benefit her later even though they seem good for us.' Lin Wu read the terms and conditions.

The system already prepared a second modified list of terms and condition and imprinted them on the jade slip.

"I've modified some of the terms and conditions. If you agree, then we shall go on with this deal." Lin Wu stated before giving the jade slip back to Kai Li.

'He read though all that quickly?' Kai Li was surprised and wondered if Lin Wu simply took a glance.

'Though if he didn't read it properly, he wouldn't make changes properly either, would he?' She wondered.

But when she read the conditions, she was at a loss.

'Heavens! He's even more ruthless than patriarch! 3%?! 3% from 15%? How does one even negotiate like that?' Kai Li read the profit margins that Lin Wu had changed.

Lin Wu saw the distress on Kai Li's face and couldn't help but smile.

"Is there an issue?" Lin Wu asked, fully knowing what was happening.

"King Lin Wu, this… 3% is just too low… how will we do the work like this?" Kai Li said unwillingly.

"Oh? So you wish to rip me off?" Lin Wu said, his voice getting heavier.

"N-no! That's not it King Lin Wu. It's just that… there will be several more people involved in it that will need to be paid too." Kai Li stated. "Just the transportation costs alone will take up 8% of the cost." She added.

"What if I can help remove transportations costs all together?" Lin Wu asked.

"Huh?" Kai Li was confused as she couldn't think of any way to reduce it.

The people who transported all the goods would need to be paid and the people who would protect the goods would need to be paid too. And with such high value goods, it would have to be strong cultivators guarding them.

And that was not something cheap at all.

Even a small group of Core condensation realm cultivators guarding a caravan would need to be paid upwards of thousands of spirit stones. And this cost would only increase the longer and farther they went.

"How would that be possible King Lin Wu?" Kai Li asked, still unable to think of any method.

"I shall get my subjects to assist you." Lin Wu proposed.

Upon hearing this, Kai Li felt it click.

"The beasts?" Kai Li asked doubtfully.

"Indeed. They can do the functions of both carrying the goods and protecting it." Lin Wu stated.

Hearing this, Kai Li's eyes lit up and she could instantly see the advantages of it.

"Of course! With the strong beasts guarding it, most people would be disinclined to even think of attacking a caravan." Kai Li spoke excitedly.

She had not thought of such an option because they had not made use of beasts as strong as this before. It wasn't that there weren't tamed beasts having the cultivation base of Core condensation realm and Nascent soul realm in the hands of cultivators.

The Lian clan had their own personal mounts that they reared along with some beasts that carried the carts for the caravan.

But rearing and controlling such beasts was a difficult task. Especially with the large numbers that Lin Wu was proposing the costs to tame so many beasts and take care of their food would result in such high costs that even the Lian clan would be hard pressed.

It was similar to using a tiger tank to deliver goods. It would be very safe and secure, but the fuel costs and the cost of the driver running it would be very high.

It was not really a viable option.

Kai Li also knew that if Lin Wu was proposing this, then the costs like those should not be there for them. She had already seen how the beasts in the forest behaved. At least the ones that were at core condensation realm and above were relatively non-violent.

At least she thought that they would not attack unless provoked. Which was more than enough for them.

"So then, do you agree with my offer?" Lin Wu questioned.

Kai Li didn't answer him right away, though. There was hesitation present on her face.

'Even with 3% it will still bring massive profits. We just need to deal with the sales while most of the logistical costs are being reduced by the beasts being provided by the King.' Kai Li analyzed the best option.

But just as she was thinking all this, she heard Lin Wu again.

"5% I'll offer you that then. I believe that should be more than enough?" Lin Wu asked.

"YES! THAT WILL BE ENOUGH!" Kai Li immediately agreed.

She was already prepared to take 3% but Lin Wu's offer was a big surprise to her and was like a pie that fell from the skies. There was no way she was gonna waste this opportunity.
