"This price is very fair. Deal."

Bearded Uncle nodded, though inwardly, he was incredibly excited. One million seven hundred thousand for two bull horns—how could anyone not be thrilled?

"And these bull tendons, Bull Treasure, the four hooves, and so on..." Boss Mi tallied up the account for Bearded Uncle.

The final amount came to nine hundred thousand. Including the two bull horns, that meant this single Mountain-Shattering Iron Bull was worth a total of two million six hundred thousand.

The profit from just one beast was truly astonishing.

Including the money from the other materials, their haul this time exceeded four million.

"Old Zhu, you really struck it rich this time. I'm green with envy!"

Old Zhang and his teammates sighed. Comparing people really could make one furious.

Old Zhu was truly lucky to have encountered a genius like Chen Feng, who had helped them hunt demonic beasts. One trip had earned them more money than several of their usual expeditions combined.

Tsk tsk, this was what a true powerhouse was like.

Powerhouses never lacked money in this world.

Or rather, making money was exceptionally easy for them.

Without a doubt, a Martial Soul Expert like Chen Feng was exactly that in their eyes.

Boss Mi also smiled. "It's rare for a team like yours to make such a huge haul in one trip. This little brother on your team is far from ordinarily strong."

With profits this high, it was naturally because the Martial Soul User's strength had shown itself. Boss Mi knew Old Zhu's team very well. They had always sold their goods here, and this was the peak of their team's earnings—many times what they had made before.

As everyone spoke, their gazes turned toward Chen Feng, filled with admiration.

Chen Feng was also surprised. He had never expected the prey to be worth so much. A whole truckload of goods had already reached over four million. If he hunted regularly, wouldn't he soon be worth several million, perhaps even tens of millions?

Holy crap!

Chen Feng himself hardly dared imagine it. He had once possessed only a few hundred yuan, yet he could become a multimillionaire in the future. It was simply unimaginable.

Among his family's relatives, anyone with several hundred thousand or a million was considered wealthy. Whenever many relatives met, they were always extremely polite to those with money.

If he were worth tens of millions in the future, wouldn't that be incredible?

"Strength really is a wonderful thing. I'm only at the early Yuan Absorption realm now. Once I awaken my second martial soul, I can keep improving and become even stronger!"

Chen Feng's heart filled with anticipation.

Beep beep.

Boss Mi quickly transferred the money.

It was an enormous sum!

Old Zhu and the others also signed the goods list, shook hands, and exchanged a few pleasantries.

Boss Mi even shook hands with Chen Feng, hoping to make himself familiar to him.

Even Old Zhang and his teammates came over to greet Chen Feng.

If they happened to meet in the Fierce Beast Mountain Range in the future, they would at least be friends rather than enemies. Befriending someone like Chen Feng meant, at the very least, they would not be in danger. If they became enemies, they did not dare imagine the consequences.

So whenever they encountered a powerhouse, they instinctively wanted to make themselves familiar. At the very least, they did not want to offend him. Of course, it would be even better if they could become friends.

Still, they knew that a powerhouse like Chen Feng would not usually pay attention to them. Fortunately, this young man was very easygoing and had no airs about him. That surprised them. They felt Chen Feng was a powerful man without any arrogance, and that was rare.

Having the ability to flip the table and actually doing so was nothing remarkable. But having the ability to flip the table while remaining amiable, without acting superior around them—that was truly worthy of respect.

Because other powerhouses were often domineering and overbearing!

After Bearded Uncle and the others left, they found a place.

Now, it was time to divide the money.

They found a restaurant, booked a private room, and began discussing how to split the profits while eating.

Zhang Yang, Tao Min, Zhu Tao, and Bearded Uncle were all extremely excited. They knew that this distribution would be far greater than any they had received before.

Bearded Uncle said with a smile:

"Everyone knows that our team's earnings this time are many times higher than before. The most important reason is our new teammate, Chen Feng. His strength is greater than anyone else here!

"If it hadn't been for him this time, we might have been wiped out. Because of him, we weren't injured, and we even gained a great deal of loot. Here's what I'm thinking."

"Captain Zhu, just say it. We all understand!"

Zhang Yang and Tao Min knew what Bearded Uncle was about to say. Their gains this time were entirely thanks to Chen Feng, so Chen Feng would definitely receive the largest share.

Bearded Uncle smiled. "Here's the thing. I said before that Chen Feng would receive double shares, and I would personally give him an additional one hundred thousand. But you all know that he killed the Mountain-Shattering Iron Bull by himself, and among the wolf pack from earlier, he also contributed the most.

"This is what I have in mind. The team's total earnings are four million four hundred and thirty thousand. The extra four hundred and thirty thousand will go to Chen Feng. Half of the remaining four million will also go to Chen Feng. Adding my personal subsidy of one hundred thousand, Chen Feng's share this time comes to two million five hundred and thirty thousand!

"Then the remaining two million will be divided among the four of us!

"Chen Feng, what do you think of this arrangement? If you're dissatisfied, you can say so."

Zhang Yang and Tao Min thought about it. The remaining two million would be divided among them, leaving each person with roughly five hundred thousand.

In the past, whenever their team went out, each person receiving seventy or eighty thousand was already considered pretty good. This time, they could receive five hundred thousand. To them, that was a substantial amount of money.

Zhang Yang smiled.

"I have no objections. If we hadn't recruited this little brother, we would all have been injured. Putting everything else aside, just for saving our lives, even if we received nothing, we wouldn't be at a loss. After all, between money and life, life is naturally more important. Now we can still receive five hundred thousand each, and I think that's more than fair. I just wonder what you think, Chen Feng?"

Tao Min also considered it. "Chen Feng saved the entire team this time. Besides, the bulk of our earnings came from hunting the wolf pack and the Mountain-Shattering Iron Bull, and Chen Feng killed both of them."

Zhu Tao remained silent at the side, without any particular opinion.

She merely followed her brother. The two of them depended on each other for survival, so however he chose to distribute it was fine. But she also knew that without Chen Feng, they would have been finished long ago. How could they still be alive, eating and drinking here?

Hearing this, Chen Feng realized that by this calculation, he would take more than half of the four million-plus.

He truly had not expected to receive so much.

Bearded Uncle, Zhang Yang, Tao Min, and Zhu Tao all waited for his reply.

Before coming here, he had done his homework and searched online for many stories about hunting teams becoming enemies for profit, even killing one another.

That was why, before coming, he had chosen the seemingly friendly Bearded Uncle in order to avoid such things.

Yet throughout the operation, he had still remained vigilant. Now, it seemed that these teammates were still quite different from those online who killed each other for profit.

As the saying went, birds of a feather flock together. Teammates who could stay with Bearded Uncle for so long could not be all that bad.
