Chapter 871: Chapter 869: Don’t Boast When Doing Business
"Test...taste test?" The saleswoman froze in embarrassnt. Never in her life had she been so speechless. tals can actually be eaten?
Normally, buying these tals, especially such high-grade ones, is for forging martial weapons or building spacecraft and such. This is tal, not food, why ask such a weird question?
"Sir, I don’t quite understand your request."
"Hmm... Let
put it another way, are these samples for sale?"
"Sorry sir, our samples are provided solely for guests to conduct quality and performance tests. They are not for external sale."
"Do you have any stock available?" Zhang nglong asked persistently.
"Sir, this level nine tal is extrely precious. Our booth’s stock is relatively limited. If you need a large quantity, we will retrieve it from our warehouse as quickly as possible and deliver it to your specified location."
"Then let
have 100 grams of each!" Zhang nglong thought for a mont and said.
"100 grams of each?" The saleswoman showed a surprised expression, "Are you sure?"
There are a total of 97 types of tals, with 100 grams of each tal totaling 9700 grams.
Although the weight doesn’t sound like much, when combined with the terrifying price of these tals, it is indeed quite a substantial amount.
These 97 types of tals all belong to the level nine class, but the grade doesn’t equate to the price. It’s rely their hardness, strength, and other paraters. Each tal has different properties, so the price varies greatly.
Even the cheapest level nine tal costs 76,520 cosmic coins per gram. So even if calculated using the cheapest rate, it would still be over 700 million cosmic coins, which converts to more than 70,000 dark coins.
In reality, spending over 70,000 dark coins in one go at this expo isn’t considered a major business transaction. But judging from Zhang nglong’s deanor, it seems he’s only interested in testing these tals’ properties.
Yet if it’s just for testing, a small sample would suffice, without the need to spend so much money on purchasing.
"This must be a big spender!" The saleswoman internally labeled Zhang nglong as such.
"Sir, please wait in the VIP room for a mont. We will bring the samples to you shortly."
"Thank you," Zhang nglong nodded.
"Sir, do you require us to provide testing equipnt for you? Including strength, lting point, and so on? Our testing equipnt is available for free use."
"No need, I’m good!"
The staff were very efficient. Not long after, they arrived at the VIP room with a rather delicate box.
These tals were molded into small spheres. Due to different densities, so were as small as nascent, while others were akin to several naphthalene balls.
"Try it?" Once the staff left the VIP room, Zhang nglong imdiately said to Ganei.
"Can I really eat this?"
tal has an inherent irresistible attraction to Moha Clan life forms.
On their ho planet, all tals are strictly controlled, with no access whatsoever. Even many slave labor tools are made from other materials.
Ordinary tals Ganei can resist, but this high-grade tal made him tremble with excitent.
"Of course you can eat it," Zhang nglong watched Ganei’s throat move up and down. He was curious how Moha Clan people devour tals; do they bite with their teeth?
These tals can even be used to create level eight martial weapons. With such hardness and strength, wouldn’t it shatter teeth if bitten?
If that’s the case, he’d definitely open a dental clinic in Moha Clan civilization to make a fortune.
But the next mont, Zhang nglong’s worldview was shattered.
An unusual energy appeared in Ganei’s mouth. The energy range was small but extrely powerful, like a mini-black hole!
Ganei picked up a tal ball and stuffed it into the bottomless black hole.
"Damn, are you the Devourer Beast?" Zhang nglong couldn’t help but comnt.
anwhile, he clearly noticed a significant rise in Ganei’s life energy level!
Previously, he was roughly at level seven Psychic on Earth. Just one fingernail-sized piece of level nine tal instantly upgraded him to level eight Psychic!
"Eat! Keep eating!" Zhang nglong pressed Ganei’s head down and started stuffing tals into his mouth.
The tals forcibly pushed Ganei’s life level to a Level Two high-grade life form!
"Wow! It’s like cheating!" Zhang nglong couldn’t help but shout. He spent nearly a year evolving from an ordinary person to a level two high-grade life form, which is similar to Mythical Realm Peak!
Yet Ganei reached such heights just by eating scrap tal. It’s infuriating!
"How do you feel?"
"Kind of full!" Ganei let out a big belch, suggesting there might be a limit to how many tals he can consu, likely related to his current life level.
"How does it taste? Which one suits your palate the most?" Zhang nglong continued asking.
"This one!" Ganei pointed to a tal labeled yh1908, "This one tastes the best and impacts
the most!"
"Alright, pack them all up!"
Zhang nglong pressed the service button.
"Sir, is there anything else I can assist you with?" The saleswoman looked puzzled at the now empty box. This 10 kg of tal isn’t easy to hide, so how did it vanish so quickly?
"I’d like to order a batch of tal labeled yh1908."
"Sir, this tal is priced at 372 dark coins per gram. How much do you need?" The saleswoman showed a delighted expression, as the tal labeled yh1908 ranks third most expensive among those they’ve sold!
It’s even more valuable than the highest-priced Source Alloy.
This tal can be used as the foundational material for a level nine martial weapon, but it’s only found in one area inhabited by powerful cosmic life forms, making extraction very difficult, requiring involvent from level seven life forms to ensure work safety.
Thus, its price is extrely high!
"Sir, how much quantity would you need? If under 100 kilograms, we can provide on-site delivery; anything above requires logistic arrangents."
"How much stock do you have?" Zhang nglong countered, "I’m afraid you don’t have enough."
"Hahaha, sir, you joke well. Our company is the largest tal mining operation in the universe. Regardless of your demand, we can fulfill it; don’t doubt our inventory."
"Alright, I’ll take one billion tons for starters!" Zhang nglong replied, thinking it should be enough for Ganei to snack on for a while.
"How much did you say?" The saleswoman’s expression froze instantly.
One billion tons? The tal labeled yh1908 has low yield in its native site and requires stringent purification processes to obtain the purest tal. Yearly production amounts to only a few dozen tons.
Since its discovery, they’ve mined it for over 7 million years, totaling just over one billion tons, with only 23 million tons in current reserve.
"Sir, we don’t have that much in stock."
"See!" Zhang nglong helplessly spread his hands, "What did I just say? Don’t exaggerate in business!"
