207: What should you call me now?

“Uh... did I interrupt you two?”

Yu Youya felt a bit awkward, sensing her return was ill-timed.

At this moment, Liu Shihhan and Xiao Yun were face to face, making her instantly misunderstand that they were doing something good.

“No, you’ve come at just the right time.”

“Hey!”

Liu Shihhan frowned, pinching him lightly.

He had just said he liked her, and now this line came out. Although he was playing a joke, it completely exposed what he was thinking.

“I’m talking about business, business, big red rental!”

“Hmph, who would believe that!”

“Teacher Yu, have you inquired about the price of this armored vehicle battery?”

Xiao Yun also didn’t waste time chatting, quickly returning to the main topic.

What he cared about most at this moment was how much big red could be rented for.

Although Xiao Yun currently had over thirty-five million in savings, it only looked like a lot; in reality, it would be used up very quickly if he started spending it.

Permanently unlocking the skill storage function of the rare safe box, buying three SS-grade skills would cost fifteen million.

Then only twenty million would be left, and by then the family heirloom dagger would only have leveled up by a little over half.

And after this upgrade using the pendulum clock, it’s estimated that soon the military dagger will have to be upgraded using little red.

little red is even more troublesome; buying it would probably cost dozens of times the price, and by then, several hundred million wouldn’t be enough.

Therefore, although Xiao Yun seems rich now, he is actually always short of money.

“I’ve inquired. It’s about what I expected. Currently, there are a few armored vehicle battery rental cases on the market, all starting at five million a year.”

Yu Youya reported.

“Although the value of big red is higher abroad, if we negotiate well for domestic rental, it could reach around five point five million, and even six million is possible, after all, this is the latest big red announced by GTI, and it has considerable research value.”

Hearing this price, Xiao Yun also nodded silently.

He didn’t expect that this single armored vehicle battery could be comparable to half an africa heart!

Of course, although the africa heart is valuable, it is merely a collectible.

And big red, such as an armored vehicle battery, which has research value, is normally more expensive when it is scarce.

“Then Teacher Yu, what do you think you can negotiate the price of this material to, with your ability?”

Xiao Yun asked.

“Five point five million is no problem.”

Yu Youya said with a smile, appearing very confident.

“I am very professional in this area.”

“Usually, the commission for such orders is one percent, right? For five point five million, Teacher Yu can also earn over fifty thousand, which is comparable to half a year’s salary.”

Liu Shihhan, who was beside them, seemed to have some knowledge of this as well, analyzing silently.

And her main reason for clarifying the price at this moment was to prevent Xiao Yun from being taken advantage of.

If Yu Youya quoted a random price, like a five percent commission, then Xiao Yun would suffer a huge loss!

Of course, she knew Yu Youya wasn’t that kind of person.

However, Yu Youya wasn’t a rich person either, so quoting one point five percent, or one point eight percent, would also be a very normal market price.

“Oh dear, Xiao Yun, just give a bit more, won’t you? It’s not easy for a teacher to work usually, just pity your teacher a little.”

When it came to the price, Yu Youya immediately put on a pitiful expression.

Having worked at the school for less than a year, she also knew that making money was not easy, and she was terrified of being poor, earning such a meager salary every day!

Seeing this, Xiao Yun also smiled faintly.

“How about this, since we’ll be cooperating long-term in the future, I’ll let you earn more on this first deal.”

Xiao Yun pondered for a moment, then said without hesitation.

“For this material, I only need five million. You can negotiate the excess yourself, and whatever you get over that amount, you can keep. How much you earn depends on your ability.”

“Really!?”

Yu Youya was suddenly somewhat incredulous.

One must know that this was a new big red material just announced in the Forbidden Zone, and the initiative to rent it out or not was in their hands.

For the price, five point five million for the first year was just the minimum, six million was very easy, and if they encountered a research institute that wasn’t short on money, six point five million wasn’t impossible!

If it really sold for six point five million a year, then she would net one point five million from this!

There truly was such a thing as a free lunch!

“Xiao Yun, thank you for giving me this opportunity. I know this is not only a reward but also a test from you. I will definitely perform well!”

Yu Youya immediately said respectfully.

Who would have thought that a few days ago, Xiao Yun, standing before her, was still a problematic student she looked down upon.

And now, after entering the Forbidden Zone for a few days and running a few knife runs, he had become so capable!

Even this armored vehicle battery was just an appetizer, so perhaps it was true, as he said, that the big red items brought out of the Forbidden Zone were almost countless!

“Still calling me Xiao Yun?”

“Boss!”

“That’s right!”

Xiao Yun smiled faintly, very satisfied with Yu Youya’s attitude.

He didn’t want to spend money and have others still hold back or be reserved with him.

And with Yu Youya’s ability and appearance, if he could invite her to be his secretary, it would also be very prestigious.

However.

Xiao Yun still felt that it was truly a pity that Yu Youya, with her abilities, could not enter the Forbidden Zone.

He would have to find a way to help her overcome her psychological barrier in the future.

...

After dinner, Xiao Yun and Yu Youya quickly signed the contract.

Yu Youya only said to wait for her good news, then quickly contacted several research institutes, planning to set off immediately.

Just as Xiao Yun had promised earlier, any amount exceeding five million would be considered Yu Youya’s profit; how much she earned would depend on her ability.

And this order was also a test of Yu Youya’s efficiency and capability.

If there were no problems, Xiao Yun would entrust her with a whole bunch of big red items next time.

“Hey, Xiao Yun.”

And at this moment, Liu Shihhan was also a bit depressed.

“What’s wrong?”

Xiao Yun asked, puzzled.

“Hmph, nothing. Let’s continue running knives. Where are we going this afternoon?”

Liu Shihhan snorted coldly, clearly having something on her mind but giving up on saying it.

Xiao Yun sighed at the sight. Although he was quite a straightforward man when it came to relationships, he knew what Liu Shihhan was thinking right now.

However, the current situation was rather awkward.

Although he had a good relationship with Liu Shihhan, they hadn’t formally confirmed their relationship by confessing or anything similar.

If one were to insist they were a couple, they hadn’t done anything that couples usually do.

They were in a rather ambiguous period, which made Xiao Yun feel a bit uncomfortable.

However.

He was never good at thinking about these things, so he would just let Liu Shihhan figure it out herself!

Currently, Xiao Yun’s main energy was focused on only one thing.

Forbidden Zone, running knives!

However, before starting the afternoon’s knife run, Xiao Yun also had to quickly contact Old Eagle to upgrade the family heirloom knife.

“Wait, there’s one more thing.”
