Chapter 230: Chapter 173: Turning in the Fierce Beast_2

"Okay, you help me negotiate and see how much money we can get for the remaining Fierce Beasts," Li Yi nodded in agreement.

He had been missing for more than twenty days and wasn’t very clear about the current situation, let alone the price of the Fierce Beasts. Since Zhao Xiaoxiao volunteered to do this, she must be confident. Letting her negotiate the price might bring a pleasant surprise.

Zhao Xiaoxiao immediately started negotiating with the boss.

"We have seven Fierce Beasts, freshly hunted in the danger zone, and they are in perfect condition. How much are you willing to pay for each? If the price is good, I might consider selling all the Fierce Beasts to you. If I’m not satisfied with your price, then I will think about turning to other recovery companies," she said.

"This morning, the price for a common Fierce Beast was 12 million, but there are very few vehicles entering and leaving the danger zone today, and not many Fierce Beasts have been recovered. The price might go up in the afternoon. I can give you a sincere offer of 12.5 million, but only if you sell all seven Fierce Beasts to me, so I don’t lose money," the boss said grudgingly, looking rather pained.

"The recovery price for a common Fierce Beast reached 14 million yesterday; even if it drops a bit today, it shouldn’t fall to 12.5 million. Your price is too low. It seems that you’re not sincere. I’ll find someone else," Zhao Xiaoxiao shook her head and mentioned yesterday’s market conditions.

Hearing this, the boss knew she had done her homework and immediately said, "The scarcity of quotas for Fierce Beasts has passed its peak period already, and it will continue to drop. The price of Fierce Beasts can only decrease. This is already a very high recovery price, and I also need to make a profit, right?"

"Subsequent market changes are none of our concern; we are not in the business. The current market price is what it is. If you are willing to buy at 14 million, we will sell; if not, then forget it," Zhao Xiaoxiao stated.

The two of them haggled continuously.

Since both knew the market bottom line, the discussion didn’t last long.

In the end, Zhao Xiaoxiao insisted on 14 million and wouldn’t budge; left with no choice, the boss agreed to the price and bought all seven remaining Fierce Beasts. He quickly signed the contract and transferred the funds on the spot.

Zhao Xiaoxiao asked Li Yi for his bank card information, and after a short while, Li Yi received a substantial payment.

The total was 98 million.

Nearly a hundred million, which could be considered a huge sum for Li Yi at this point.

"The price of Fierce Beasts has actually skyrocketed this much? A few beasts are nearly a hundred million?" Li Yi couldn’t help but think of the Biao he had hunted before.

The price of a Biao was only a few million, but because Yang Yilong needed to win people over at the time, he had offered double the rate, and that’s why it sold for twenty million.

Just this one Fierce Beast was now worth 14 million, which was double the usual price.

"I was so generous, giving away 14 million each. No wonder people were so grateful; if it had been me, I would’ve been deeply touched as well," Li Yi thought to himself, even he couldn’t help feeling a headache for his own lavish actions.

Saving their lives and giving each person a Fierce Beast, indeed, wasn’t much different from adopting them.

This wasn’t about making friends; it was practically like taking on children. But having just returned and unfamiliar with the market, it was normal for this to happen.

"Alright, if you have other things to do, go ahead. I need to go back to the old city and take a look," Li Yi suddenly changed the topic and said.

"Li Yi, I will take you; it just so happens that I’ve finished my business here," Lv Jue immediately offered.

"Sure, then I’ll trouble you," Li Yi nodded without refusal.

Zhao Xiaoxiao also said, "While you’re at it, drop me off too. I’ve been injured and need to stop by the hospital. You can let me out when you pass by it."

"Alright then." Lv Jue hesitated for a moment but still agreed, after all, she was a teammate.

Shortly after,

Once Lv Jue’s car was checked and confirmed to be fine, it was allowed to go.

He drove into the city, first stopping by a hospital to drop off the injured Zhao Xiaoxiao. Although she seemed fine, her condition was a bit bad and needed immediate treatment.

After dropping Zhao Xiaoxiao off at the hospital, Lv Jue specifically drove Li Yi back to the old city.

Compared to a month ago, the old city was significantly less populated, exuding an aura of desolation. There were no pedestrians on the road, no cars, and shops were closed. The streets were eerily quiet, with only an occasional person hurrying by.

Li Yi’s gaze swept over the area, instinctively sensing an unusual aura.

There was a subtle sense of unease.

"The old city was just fine, and now it’s turned out like this," Li Yi couldn’t help but lament, feeling that the world was changing too fast, so much that even he was struggling to cope.

"There’s no helping it. People here are uneasy as long as the supernatural events in the old city remain unresolved. If it’s not handled properly, the population here will only continue to decrease. Li Yi, be cautious after you enter the old city. Don’t be careless; even though it seems safe during the daytime, you can’t be sure that no danger will suddenly appear," Lv Jue shook his head, expressing a sense of helplessness.

"Okay, I got it," Li Yi raised his guard.

Very soon.

The vehicle stopped in front of the dilapidated complex where he lived.

There were still some people around this complex because it was relatively safe. The supernatural incidents happened quite far from here, so some people chose to continue living here without moving away.
