"So you don't want to? Why get angry?"
Recalling the past few minutes, Jiang Yaqing's mouth seemed to be equipped with an Italian cannon, leaving Chen Yu somewhat dazed.
He truly didn't expect that the seemingly foolish and cute Jiang Yaqing possessed such an astonishing vocabulary.
Fortunately, despite Jiang Yaqing firing a few shots, the business deal was settled.
That's right.
She accepted!
Chen Yu's proposal of a 40% resource split, with priority resource allocation to Jiang Yaqing, was accepted.
The reason was simple.
To Jiang Yaqing, it was worth it.
The condition of priority resource allocation could almost be considered non-existent. Although she was reluctant to admit it, based on their interactions during this period, their relationship, while never officially declared as allies, was nearly the same.
As for paying 40% of the resources.
She was making a profit!
She had just opened 10 silver chests, five of which were opened without the luck attribute bonus, and the other five were opened with the luck attribute bonus.
Comparing the resources from both sides, the latter yielded 3 to 5 times more than the former.
This meant—
The 10 points of luck attribute buff had increased her chest opening rewards to be more than what Chen Yu demanded.
If her luck was truly good.
And she got 5 times the yield.
Then, after giving Chen Yu 40%, she would still have earned double the luck-based resources.
"Watch closely, I'm opening the chests now."
In the video, Jiang Yaqing blew on her hair tips. Her sleeves were rolled up, indicating she hadn't quite recovered from her earlier outburst.
Switching from voice to video was also to allow Chen Yu to see the chest-opening process clearly.
In Jiang Yaqing's words—
"I'll show you everything, just watch!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Yu's mind couldn't help but drift to the scene of her bathing that day. His subtle change in expression was met with a barrage of verbal attacks.
Sensing Jiang Yaqing's unfriendly gaze, Chen Yu cleared his throat.
"Please!"
A multicolored treasure chest.
This was undoubtedly the highest-level treasure chest Jiang Yaqing had ever encountered.
Let alone her,
It was the same for the entire underground world.
The resources obtainable from a chest of this caliber were absolutely breathtaking.
Standing before the treasure chest, Jiang Yaqing rubbed her hands together, placing them on her chest as if in prayer. Watching in the video, Chen Yu couldn't help but feel a sense of nervousness himself.
"Open!"
After about half a minute, Jiang Yaqing shouted and forcefully lifted the lid of the chest.
Iridescent light.
The five-colored glow erupted from the treasure chest like a rainbow bridge.
Jiang Yaqing hugged the chest.
She poured out all the internal resources, even making sure to clear her position so Chen Yu could see clearly.
A sword.
A multicolored long skirt.
And a pile of coins that resembled a small mountain.
Chen Yu recognized these coins.
Purple Gold Coins.
One Purple Gold Coin was equivalent to one hundred Gold Coins. Judging by the quantity on the ground, there were at least a thousand of them.
"Gulp."
Upon seeing this, Chen Yu couldn't help but swallow.
This was outrageous?
Not to mention the skirt and the sword, a single multicolored treasure chest yielded 100,000 Gold Coins?
The total resources of all survivors in the entire area combined.
Could they even reach 100,000 Gold Coins?
"What is this stuff?" Jiang Yaqing frowned at the pile of currency on the ground. "Money, this stuff is useless. Chen Yu… do you want this?"
Huh?
Hearing this question, Chen Yu was dumbfounded.
What did she mean?
Was this Goddess of Mercy about to give him all 100,000?
"I, I want it!"
Without much thought, Chen Yu replied.
Why wouldn't he want it?
100,000 Gold Coins. He would be going to the city-state soon, and with these 100,000 Gold Coins, he could purchase an immeasurable amount of resources.
His development would instantly accelerate!
"Alright, as you said, I'll give you 40%." Jiang Yaqing squatted on the ground, dividing the Purple Gold Coins into two piles. She pointed to the smaller pile and said, "This pile is yours."
"You're not giving it all to me?"
"Huh?"
Instantly, Jiang Yaqing's face fell.
"What are you dreaming about? Why would I give it all to you? Or, if you don't want the sword and skirt, I can give them all to you."
"I take it back." Chen Yu said.
No matter how he looked at it, the sword and skirt were likely more valuable. Chen Yu wouldn't give up those two high-level equipment for a mere pile of coins.
"Tsk~ Greedy merchant."
Noticing Chen Yu's sudden change in expression, Jiang Yaqing pouted.
"I've screenshotted the two items and sent them to you via private message. Take a look. It's a bit difficult to split just two items, so let's each take one."
Opening his private message page.
In the messages, Jiang Yaqing had indeed sent the screenshots.
[Underground Reminder: Knight's Sword of Five-Colored Stone +1]
[Underground Reminder: Sky Silk Garment +1]
Below the screenshots, Jiang Yaqing also attached detailed images of the two items.
[Knight's Sword of Five-Colored Stone: A long sword forged from five-colored stone, possessing five attribute buffs: Holy, Sharp, Sturdy, Judgment, and Enemy Slaying. An extremely rare offensive weapon with extremely high value.]
[Sky Silk Garment: A long skirt made from Sky Silk thread, warm in winter and cool in summer. Its toughness changes based on the user's strength, making it a luxury item coveted by the princesses of the underground kingdoms.]
In terms of practicality.
Even without looking at the details, Chen Yu would have chosen the sword.
He was a man.
He couldn't possibly run around wearing a skirt every day.
The problem was—
Chen Yu still needed to assess the value of both items.
"Little Demon."
"The Sky Silk Garment's highest auction price last time was 1.3 million Gold Coins, and the Knight's Sword of Five-Colored Stone was 1.15 million Gold Coins. The difference between them is not that significant," Little Demon whispered.
Although Little Demon said it casually.
Chen Yu was stunned.
These two items were worth over a million?
After hearing this news, Chen Yu took a long while to suppress the shock in his heart and looked at the two items in the video.
The difference was 150,000.
If Chen Yu was extremely short on money, choosing the skirt to auction might be slightly better. However, he wasn't short on money right now, and the Knight's Sword of Five-Colored Stone was an offensive weapon.
In exploring the underground, having a suitable weapon was definitely more valuable than 150,000 Gold Coins.
"Have you decided? Don't tell me you have decision paralysis," Jiang Yaqing mumbled, "I don't like men who can't make up their minds."
"Huh?"
Hearing this, Chen Yu raised his eyebrows.
"Partner, you don't need to say anything further. Don't tell me you have feelings for me. I hope you maintain your composure, although I am excellent…"
"Go to hell!"
Jiang Yaqing's gaze instantly turned unfriendly, and she glared.
"The sword is yours, the skirt is mine. The money is split 4-6. And I'm returning your luck set to you. There's something I have to say, your clothes stink."
"Manliness, what do you know? Sweating is the romance of a man."
"Blech~"
Jiang Yaqing was indeed a decisive person. As soon as she finished speaking, she hung up the video. Chen Yu also received a gift from Jiang Yaqing.
Ding.
You have received a gift from Jiang Yaqing.
Knight's Sword of Five-Colored Stone +1
Perfect Adventurer's Breastplate +1
Perfect Adventurer's Legplates +1
Perfect Adventurer's Bracers +1
Purple Gold Coins +478
Chen Yu silently looked at these gifts, his right fist clenching involuntarily.
He had struck it rich!
