My experience of grinding in another world

Chapter 272 Trading
Late at night, in the underground secret room of Chen Mu's wooden house in Yiyou District.

boom!
A black wooden horse exploded into pieces.

Chen Mu nonchalantly activated the Five Ghosts Bag brand vacuum cleaner and quickly cleaned the room.

Then, full of energy, he picked up another tree heart.

Covered in black smoke, the five ghosts moved the mountain, quickly corroding and cutting it into the shape of a wooden horse.

The hardness of the heartwood varies among different trees.

Even within the same tree, the heartwood varies in different locations. The heartwood at the roots is slightly harder than that at the trunk.

"Therefore, when a magical talisman invades and merges, the force must be adapted to the situation."

A series of insights surfaced in Chen Mu's mind.

I glanced at the gray wall's proficiency level.

Weapon Forging Skill (Wood Spirit): 8623/10000;
Chen Mu smiled and said, "It'll be quick."

As his experience grew, he became increasingly adept at crafting wooden spirit beasts.

With the Seven Souls Returning to Origin to restore his spirit, the number of times he could refine things each day increased several times over!
"These are seven power banks!" Chen Mu thought happily.

The joy of accident!

"Then this deal involving eight thousand pieces of white jade..."

"Haha! Keep going, keep going!"

The underground chamber was suddenly filled with a series of loud explosions.

……

Ten days later, late at night.

Dense forest outside the camp of the fourth reclamation team in Yiyou District.

Wearing a white mask and a black cloak, surrounded by black smoke, Chen Mu slowly walked out of the darkness.

Behind him, a large wooden box, measuring two meters in length, width, and height, floated in mid-air.

Following Chen Mu's steady steps, it obediently floated to Shang Huan's side.

Chen Mu looked Shang Huan up and down with a calm yet chilling gaze, at a time when Shang Huan was becoming increasingly nervous.

boom!
The square wooden box suddenly crashed down in front of the other person.

Shang Huan's chubby face twitched instantly.

Chen Mu nodded in satisfaction; it seemed his entrance had been a resounding success.

"There are fifty Wood Spirits here. You can give them to Mo Wuzhou later."

"Yes!" Shang Huan nodded respectfully.

Chen Mu thought for a moment and then said, "Once we have the white jade, we'll keep it with you for now."

What if Mo Wuzhou has hidden something in this money?
Isn't that how it's always portrayed in movies from my past life?

The villain went through all sorts of trouble to get some money, only to find that it contained a tracking device.

Although I'm not the villain, that's the gist of it.

Are you keeping four thousand six hundred white jade coins here? Is it to hoard a large amount of spirit-attracting elixir?
"Yes!" Shang Huan said excitedly.

Mr. Gongsun, what a spirit you have!
Thinking of the almost endless profits in the future, Shang Huan couldn't help but feel excited.

Don't panic! Stay calm!
Shang Huan took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down.

Would Mo Wuzhou remain unmoved?
He deliberately raised the price when we discussed profit sharing before!

Shang Huan hesitated for a moment and said, "Mr. Gongsun, the longer the land reclamation takes, the larger the amount of money involved in our deal will be. What if Mo Wuzhou goes back on his word..."

Going back on your word? Does that mean you've taken the goods but haven't paid? Possibly!
If that's really the case... well, there's nothing I can do about it.

Chen Mu felt somewhat helpless.

He's a disciple of a highly accomplished master in the Upper Temple, and he also has the Junior Supervisor as his backer.

I'm just a nobody in the courtyard, do you really think I can kill him?

Of course, one must maintain a certain level of sophistication in front of Shang Huan.

"It's alright," Chen Mu said calmly.

"You just need to deliver the goods. Whether it succeeds or not is none of your business," Chen Mu said, softening his voice.

"As for Mo Wuzhou going back on his word, hehe..." Chen Mu let out a meaningful chuckle.

"I understand!" Shang Huan's eyes lit up as if he had been injected with chicken blood.

"Since the organization has other safeguards!"

"Now I can do it without worry!"

Mr. Gongsun had indeed thought everything through! An organization? What organization? Oh, I almost forgot, I also played the role of Lu Zhishen, the master of fulfilling dreams. Chen Mu suddenly realized.

However, I feel there's something strange about this fat man.

Well, it's such a big deal, my heart is pounding with excitement too. I can understand...

After thinking for a moment, he spoke again: "For each Wood Spirit, you have six pieces of white jade."

"Once the payment is received, keep some for yourself."

Running errands is worthless, but the risk of quarantine is valuable.

Whether it's delivering the goods or temporarily holding the payment, if some people in the upper house really have ulterior motives, Shang Huan will be the first to suffer.

"Thank you, Mr. Gongsun!" Shang Huan's eyes lit up.

Mr. Gongsun is truly magnanimous!

Mo Wuzhou received only twelve pieces of white jade, but I received six!
"This risk is worth taking!" Shang Huan chuckled.

……

At the foot of Pengyue Mountain, in the familiar dense forest.

Mo Wuzhou looked up at the starry sky, easing the fatigue from refining the white jade coins while waiting quietly.

Before long, Shang Huan came running over, carrying a square wooden box.

"Sorry to keep you waiting, Senior Brother Mo!" Shang Huan said with a smile, his small eyes narrowed.

"It's alright." Shang Huan waved her hand dismissively.

"How many are there?" He walked up to the wooden crate.

“Fifty,” Shang Huan replied with a smile.

"Gongsun Sheng has really made a good plan." Mo Wuzhou sneered.

Last time I gave him four samples, which also included four portions of Spirit-Attracting Elixir.

He guessed at the time that the other party definitely wanted to continue making money from the Spirit-Attracting Elixir.

"Isn't he afraid of being envied?" Mo Wuzhou frowned and couldn't help but offer a suggestion.

However, Mu Linglang himself has already attracted a lot of attention lately. And if we add the Spirit-Guiding Elixir...

Shang Huan's lips curled slightly, her smile remaining unchanged.

Envious? No problem! We have an organization behind us!
Mo Wuzhou raised an eyebrow: "It seems Gongsun Sheng has a backup plan!"

A chill ran down his spine. Gongsun Sheng exuded a sinister aura; he might actually possess some sinister and treacherous methods!
"I hope you won't cause me any trouble," Mo Wuzhou sneered.

He reached out and touched the mustard seed talisman on his wrist.

puff!
A small wooden box landed on top of the large square box.

Opening the wooden box revealed it overflowing with white jade coins, which filled Shang Huan's little eyes with light.

Mo Wuzhou counted out a small pile and stuffed it into a small cloth bag he carried with him.

"Including the four samples from last time, minus mine, there are a total of four thousand nine hundred and forty-two white jade coins. Let's count them." Mo Wuzhou pushed the small box to Shang Huan.

Shang Huan glanced at it, picked it up and casually lifted it in his hand. Then he chanted an incantation, put it into the blank mustard seed talisman on his wrist, and said with a smile, "I trust Senior Brother Mo's character."

Mo Wuzhou rolled his eyes. You think you can trust me? You're really something!

The deal was reached, and the atmosphere between the two parties was amicable.

Mo Wuzhou picked up the wooden box with both hands and tested its weight.

He then glanced at Shang Huan's wrist, and couldn't help but look around, his eyes flashing with a faint golden light.

"Gongsun Sheng really didn't come?!" he exclaimed in surprise.

During their several meetings, Gongsun Sheng would use the eerie black smoke to spy on the surroundings.

This involves such a large transaction, yet they didn't even bother to look at it?

When I came here, I couldn't help but take a second look at the slightest movement.

Gongsun Sheng, such a cautious person, actually let the transaction proceed without any oversight?!
"What a spirit!" Mo Wuzhou couldn't help but admire and praise.

Then a plume of black smoke was seen drifting out of the square box.

It looked like a big head, slowly peeking halfway out of the box.

Mo Wuzhou: "..."

Damn, you're too quick to admire me!

This person is still as insidious as ever!
