Survival in the Mist: From a Dilapidated Wooden Hut to a Heavenly Palace in the Clouds

Following Song Yufei's advice, Mo Ming told Lu Mingyu about the transaction method. If Lu Mingyu was willing, the two would cooperate; otherwise, Mo Ming would have to give up the opportunity to obtain sulfur.

Mo Ming originally thought that Lu Mingyu would definitely try to negotiate, or at least reconsider.

To Mo Ming's surprise, Lu Mingyu readily agreed and immediately traded the sulfur to him.

She kept thanking him.

Wow... that's too easy for them to agree to. Could there be a trap?

But judging from his appearance in the video, he seemed genuinely happy to have seen hope. Even an actor couldn't portray it so realistically.

Mo Ming felt a pang of doubt and said, "So quick to agree? Won't you reconsider?"

"Boss, to be honest, I asked several friends I thought were on good terms with, but none of them were willing to help me, not even if I offered them Ancient Spirit Coins as a reward."

As soon as they heard that it was against an organization, they all refused, even my allies who had signed a partnership agreement advised me to give up.

He said this is a world shrouded in mist, without the constraints of law. Who could possibly stand against an entire organization? Going there would just be suicide.

"What he said is true. This is indeed difficult to handle, and it could easily turn into a buy-one-get-one-free deal. Even with the teleportation array orb, there's no guarantee that they won't have other preparations."

"Then why were you willing to agree to this deal?" Lu Mingyu asked, puzzled.

"I have no choice, I desperately need sulfur. Fortune favors the bold, right? Besides, I think you're a decent person! And didn't we agree that safety comes first?"

Mo Ming's words were tactful and sophisticated, demonstrating his mastery of the art of speaking.

She not only stated her needs but also affirmed Lu Mingyu's character, telling him that half of the reason she was willing to take the risk was because she trusted him.

Finally, he stated his position, saying that if things really didn't work out, he would just run away, which was a clear way of putting the unpleasant things out in advance.

Who wouldn't feel uncomfortable hearing that?

Lu Mingyu was also very happy, and his good impression of Mo Ming improved once again.

"I understand, thank you, boss! Don't worry, I, Lu Mingyu, am not the kind of person who would betray his word. If I am in real danger and unable to escape, I will definitely die before you, boss."

Lu Mingyu's confident and righteous speech in the video made Mo Ming's heart tighten, and I was even a little moved by what he said.

"Haha! It's not that scary, I believe you!"

After hanging up the video call, Mo Ming and Song Yufei couldn't hide their joy as they looked at the 2000 units of sulfur in front of them.

Is freedom of artillery shells about to be achieved today?

"Yufei, you just said you had something to tell me. What is it?"

Song Yufei chuckled and said, "It's rubber. I found information about rubber on a short video platform. Quite a few people are selling it."

Mo Ming nodded. "How much is it? Is it expensive?"

Song Yufei shook her head. "Except for a few places where the prices are a bit outrageous, the others are generally at normal prices. 10 units of rubber sell for 3 Guling coins, and they are all of the Emerald Green grade."

Mo Ming nodded slightly, "It's alright, not too expensive. It's only slightly higher than the exchange rate at the currency exchange, so it's acceptable."

Ask them if they sell seeds.

"I asked around, and no one is selling, even when I raised the price."

Mo Ming nodded. "That's true. At this crucial time, the importance of seeds is self-evident."

Everyone wants to keep this resource for sustainable development firmly in their own hands; how could they possibly sell it?

Song Yufei said helplessly, "Yes, now everyone sees each other as competitors."

If the opponent strengthens even slightly, our ranking may be more threatened.

"Hey? I suddenly thought of a way, maybe I can get some seeds."

Mo Ming, who was racking his brains, suddenly had a flash of inspiration and a sales strategy appeared in his mind.

Upon hearing this, Song Yufei also felt a sense of anticipation and quickly urged, "Tell me quickly."

"Once the condoms are finished, we'll advertise them on short video platforms, and the quantity will be 100."

Then a notice was posted that read: Limited quantity, rubber seeds will be traded on a priority basis.

For all transactions involving rubber seeds, a 20% discount will be offered on subsequent repurchases.

For those who use other crop seeds, a 10% discount will be given on all subsequent repurchases.

Then, if someone contacts you to add you as a friend and buys something, you should focus on people who previously sold rubber on short video platforms.

If they try to buy from you, just say you don't have many condoms left, and you're only keeping the rest to trade for rubber seeds.

If other people buy it, it will be sold normally, at the normal price.

Even if they all try to keep it a secret, it doesn't matter. As long as one person trades us rubber seeds, we can take off immediately.

As for the other seeds, it would be better if we could trade for them, but it doesn't matter if we can't. After all, the first wave of bricks thrown out was just to lure out the gem of rubber seeds.

If you manage to acquire rubber seeds, you can simply price the condoms in Ancient Coins.

If you want to purchase it using other resources, we can consider that on a case-by-case basis.

Song Yufei listened very attentively, and she had to admit that Mo Ming's method was truly amazing.

"So how do you set the price?"

"As for the price, if you buy it with seeds, one seed will be exchanged for one condom."

"If you buy it with Ancient Coins, it's ten Ancient Coins for one condom."

Mo Ming made up his mind that he would take all kinds of seeds in this round, so that once he had rubber seeds, he could produce and sell them himself.

If it's a seed trade, you'll only accept seeds that you don't already have.

Otherwise, you'll have to use Ancient Coins to buy it.

Upon hearing the price, Song Yufei's lips curled slightly, and she said, "10 Ancient Spirit Coins for a condom? You really dare to set such a price. Do you think they're all vengeful spirits?"

Mo Ming chuckled, "Don't underestimate human desires. If it weren't for the special period of shelter rating, I would have sold them for 50 Ancient Coins each."

"Indeed, no merchant is without guile."

"I reckon that by the time the rating is over, we won't be the only ones making condoms anymore; a whole host of different brands will soon be popping up on the market."

At that time, the condom industry chain will no longer be dominated by us.

"Wouldn't it be a waste of our invaluable condom blueprints if we didn't seize this opportunity to make a killing?"

Song Yufei listened with great interest and clapped her hands repeatedly, "I never knew you had such a business mind!"

"Hmph! Call me the sales genius, the Wolf of Wall Street."

"You're getting cocky now, come over here and help me build the cannon and shells first."

"okay!"

After saying that, Song Yufei slowly stood up, took out a teleportation array orb, and Mo Ming stood next to her. With a flash of white light, the two disappeared into the bronze hall together.
