Chapter 20
Since Grade A honey commanded a slight premium, Boss Gao offered three extra spirit stones—just as he had for Sister Nan’s transaction.
Qi Ping naturally accepted.
One major advantage of dealing with a trusted merchant was the straightforwardness. No haggling, no underhanded tactics—just clean, efficient business.
“No problem! I’ve always trusted your pricing, Boss Gao.”
“Mutual benefit is the key to longevity. As long as you keep patronizing my humble shop…”
“And if you ever need high-value items, just ask. I know Greenrock Market inside out—I’ll find you the best deals!”
As he counted out the spirit stones, Boss Gao casually promoted his new side hustle: procurement services.
Thanks to his extensive connections in the market, he could source premium goods at better prices than most. The idea had struck him months ago when a regular client requested help acquiring rare materials.
Now, the venture was already profitable—even after kickbacks. For a Qi Refinement Layer 6 cultivator, it was a risk-free way to double-dip.
