Honkai, But the Spirit Simulator Chapter 645

Mei scrutinized Edison.

She was, after all, an all-purpose housekeeping expert. Though her bargaining skills could not compare to those of old ladies at the market, they were still quite respectable.

If Tesla did not manage to push the cost below a hundred, something would be seriously wrong—time costs included.

With this funding coming in, she could buy materials and build equipment. In the end, the cost would only get lower and
