"The wastewater must have more than one use, right?"

Liu Zheng said with a strange expression.

"Of course not, but this is the most famous and classic use."

Qian Duoduo laughed.

"Alright. Do you sell it here?"

He asked.

"We generally don’t sell it because usually no one buys this stuff, and it’s quite dangerous. However, I recently received a batch of goods that need to be preserved with wastewater. If you buy this batch of goods, the wastewater can be a complimentary gift."

Qian Duoduo replied.

"Goodness, no wonder you can run such a big business, you really know how to work bundled sales."

Liu Zheng smirked.

People usually bundle one bought with one free, but Qian Duoduo bundles a whole batch for one, not even free tours for seniors are this aggressive.

"Goodbye."

He cupped his hands and was about to turn and leave.

He has money, but doesn’t want to be taken for a fool.

"Please wait."

With Qian Duoduo’s urging, Liu Zheng’s surroundings suddenly darkened, as if a wall had appeared.

"What? Does Boss Qian want a forced sale?"

He sneered, the Asura Great Dharma Wheel above his head spinning, instantly cutting through the wall of darkness.

But he left some room, only creating a hole in the wall, not directly sweeping it away.

"Certainly not, you misunderstood."

Qian Duoduo’s eyes flashed, and the darkness retreated.

"As they say, business is business, you can offer a counter-price."

He smiled.

"Oh? Then why don’t you set a price first."

Liu Zheng said ambiguously.

"Why don’t you take a look at the goods first, you might have different thoughts."

Qian Duoduo said.

"Alright."

Liu Zheng nodded.

"Bring over B204."

Qian Duoduo took out a walkie-talkie from his pocket and said.

On the other end of the walkie-talkie came a burst of dense and noisy sounds with unclear meaning, then fell silent.

Then, a group of centipedes the size of giants crawled out of the darkness carrying a glass tank.

The glass tank was filled with dark-brown sewage, and inside could be vaguely seen floating items of various shapes.

"These items were all discovered in the same wastewater, there were originally eight pieces, but after I took one out, it slowly evaporated away, leaving only seven pieces."

Qian Duoduo introduced.

"If I use the wastewater to make soup and finish it, won’t these items also evaporate?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"You don’t need to worry about that, there’s enough wastewater for you to make ten batches of pungent broth. If you need more, I can get some more wastewater for you as an after-sales service."

Qian Duoduo laughed.

"That is indeed service-minded. What are the uses of these seven items inside?"

He asked.

"I don’t know."

Qian Duoduo shook his head.

"Huh? You dare to sell something without knowing its use?"

Liu Zheng widened his eyes.

"You probably are coming to Garbage Street for the first time and are not clear about the situation. Most items at the Garbage Processing Plant have their effects hidden and need a process we call ’Enlightenment’ to gradually reveal them."

"The method of ’Enlightenment’ varies, and the final revealed effect will also differ. So generally, the items we sell are not appraised unless customers request it."

Qian Duoduo explained.

"There’s an additional fee for ’Enlightenment’, right? And if after appraisal, it turns out useless, money isn’t refunded, correct?"

Liu Zheng blinked.

"Exactly. Seems like I misjudged, you are indeed an expert."

Qian Duoduo smiled.

"Haha."

He’s not really an expert but has seen enough on TV—this is just like gambling on stones.

"What about their side effects?"

Liu Zheng asked.

The effects not apparent doesn’t mean side effects aren’t, these cunning merchants enjoy playing such word traps, he recalls the Pond Master was once tricked.

"Initially, their side effects would cause the fingers of nearby people to gradually disappear, and if there were no fingers, then other limbs would slowly vanish. However, after taking out one item, the side effect also disappeared."

Qian Duoduo answered.

"So in reverse reasoning, these items are likely a whole, now their positive effects might also have disappeared or weakened?"

Liu Zheng inferred.

"There is a possibility of that."

Qian Duoduo reluctantly responded.

"Understood. No need for ’Enlightenment’, just give me a package price for these items."

Liu Zheng said.

"I forgot to ask, what’s your surname?"

"My surname is Liu."

Liu Zheng replied.

"Since Mr. Liu is straightforward, I’ll give you an honest price: eighty-eight thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight."

Qian Duoduo thought for a moment and said.

"I don’t like such auspicious numbers, forty-four thousand four hundred and forty-four, take it or leave it."

Liu Zheng said without changing his expression.

"This, Mr. Liu, your bargaining is too ruthless."

Qian Duoduo smiled wryly.

"You and I both know that you’ll still make a profit at that price. I originally only wanted to buy wastewater, you insisted on bundling sales, I’m willing to buy, so that’s good enough."

"You might want to say, if I don’t buy yours, others won’t dare sell to me either."

Liu Zheng said while watching Qian Duoduo, noticing his expression slightly change as expected.

"However, I’m choosing to buy simply to save some trouble. If I wanted, I could have the Fire Mage help me take it."

He said.

"The Fire Mage! Isn’t he wanted?"

Qian Duoduo exclaimed in shock.

"He soon won’t be."

Liu Zheng revealed a confident expression.

"And where is he now?"

Qian Duoduo cautiously asked.

"Do you want to know? If you do, I’ll have to take you to meet him."
