Chapter 139: Deal

“First…” Mo Chenxuan started and turned to Qin Wu.

Seeing the look, Qin Wu nodded and waved her hand.

A moment later, ten bottles appeared on the table in front of her.

“Please accept these as a meeting gift.” Qin Wu said.

“Five hundred millilitres of mutated water should be mixed with one hundred litres of ordinary water to purify ten thousand crystal cores. The process takes three days.” Mo Chenxuan informed as Qin Wu handed out the bottles.

“Team leader Mo and deputy team leader Qin are thoughtful.” Xuanyuan Qi praised after receiving his bottle.

Hearing this, Qin Wu sighed with a regretful expression.

“Unfortunately, the ability user can barely produce two litres of mutated water every day. Otherwise, we would have brought more water.” She said.

“Is the production so low?” Someone asked, his brows creased in a frown.

“It’s indeed lower than ordinary water ability users.” Mo Chenxuan confirmed and quickly continued.

“The mutated water is safe for drinking and can purify ordinary water, killing bacteria and other pathogens. Unfortunately, the production is too low and can’t support varied use.”

“What about the zombie virus?” Fang Canghao asked, his eyes narrowed into slits.

’The vultures are circling! If they dare to have ideas, I dare to be ruthless.’ Qin Wu thought and lowered her head to hide the cold determination in her eyes.

“The water is useless against the zombie virus.” Mo Chenxuan said.

He wasn’t lying.

As early as when they first discovered the peculiarities of their space water, Mo Chenxuan and Qin Wu conducted many experiments.

First, they tested the individual waters and then moved on to the combined water.

Unfortunately, the result was the same.

No matter the water, it could not kill the zombie virus.

Mo Chenxuan and Qin Wu were confused by this result.

After all, crystal cores were sourced from zombie heads and naturally carried a trace amount of the zombie virus.

Since the water could purify crystal cores, wasn’t it logical to kill the zombie virus?

If the research institute was trustworthy, Mo Chenxuan and Qin Wu would have contributed some concentrated space water for research.

Unfortunately, the research institute was the playground of the Fang family.

If Qin Wu and Mo Chenxuan exposed the true space water, they would likely die without a burial place.

’I hope we can recruit a reliable research team soon.’ Mo Chenxuan thought and sighed.

“Team Legends can provide five litres of mutated water every week.” Mo Chenxuan said, looking at Xuanyuan Qi.

Hearing this, several leaders frowned.

Five litres were enough to purify one hundred thousand crystal cores.

However, one hundred thousand was a drop in the bucket for the base.

“We must purify all the crystal cores in circulation.” Someone said, and Mo Chenxuan nodded before speaking.

“Team Legends relies on purified crystal cores to earn a living. We will naturally take over where the base stops.” He said.

“One purified crystal core is equivalent to five ordinary crystal cores. How will you sell the water?”

“Eighty thousand ordinary crystal cores for every litre of water.” Mo Chenxuan said and quickly continued.

“The payment doesn’t need to be in crystal cores. It can also be in supplies, weapons, information and other things.”

“Eighty thousand crystal cores?” Someone exclaimed in an outraged voice.

However, Mo Chenxuan didn’t back down.

“One litre of water can purify twenty thousand crystal cores, increasing their value to an equivalent of one hundred thousand ordinary crystal cores.”

“Also, the value of one purified crystal core is in fact more than that of five ordinary crystal cores. After all, ability users can’t absorb five unpurified crystal cores in one go, but they can absorb purified crystal cores endlessly.”

“Finally, the mutated water has research value and varied applications.”

“That said, Team Legends is committed to the survival of the human race. Because of this, we are willing to disregard the specifics and sell the mutated water at a discounted price of four ordinary for one purified.”

The leaders had nothing to say when they heard this.

After all, Mo Chenxuan was right.

In the same position, they would likely not have been so generous and would have sold the mutated water and purified crystal cores at a higher price.

After that, Mo Chenxuan and Xuanyuan Qi signed a contract.

However, the contract was temporary since the government would soon undergo a restructuring.

Still, both sides were satisfied.

“I believe team Legends has reserved land in the upcoming expansion?” Xuanyuan Qi asked after signing the contract.

“Everyone in Team Legends is committed to reclaiming more living space for mankind.” Mo Chenxuan answered in a roundabout way.

“It’s a good thing for young people to be ambitious.” Someone praised, but this statement was a hidden sword.

On one hand, it was praising Team Legends for their ambition and on the other, it was reminding other leaders to be vigilant while warning Mo Chenxuan against being overly ambitious.

’Old fox.’ Qin Wu silently cursed.

Although she and Mo Chenxuan had long known they would stand out because of their lack of background, Qin Wu still disliked how some of the leaders dared to threaten them.

’Just wait until we establish our territory.’ She thought, and a trace of cunning flashed in her eyes.

“Team leader Mo, deputy team leader Qin, the next meeting also concerns you. Don’t be in a hurry to leave.’ Xuanyuan Qi said and stood.

“Let’s take a short break. The next meeting will start in thirty minutes.” He said before leaving the conference room.

Hearing this, Mo Chenxuan and Qin Wu exchanged a glance.

Since there were only thirty minutes until the next meeting, the two didn’t leave the room.

Instead, they stood from the conference table and walked to a corner.

Unfortunately, they wanted to be alone, but the others had different ideas.

As soon as Mo Chenxuan and Qin Wu broke from the crowd, several people walked towards them.

Seeing this, Qin Wu sighed, feeling a little uncomfortable.

’Here comes trouble.’ She thought and unconsciously squeezed Mo Chenxuan’s hand.

[I am here.] The man transmitted through his spiritual ability.
