It's Over

"It was me," Ling Chu said.

The figure behind the cloth curtain was short and slender, with a shrill voice. Ling Chu was curious, but she did not make any rash moves.

She remembered Babu Jiujiu's warning: Babu Guanguan was solitary by nature, and even conducted business from behind a curtain. Never let curiosity get the better of her and lift it.

The other crew members clearly remembered that taboo as well. No one foolishly tried to pull aside the cloth curtain.

"I like your honey very much. The quality is excellent. How much more honey like this do you have?" Babu Guanguan asked.

"As much as you want, I have."

After all, she had Honey Island.

Honey Island produced five hundred jin of honey every three days. By now, she had stockpiled over seven thousand jin in her warehouse.

"What a bold claim..."

The voice behind the curtain sounded somewhat surprised, but he did not seem angry. After a pause, he named a quantity he considered exorbitant.

"I want five hundred bottles of honey!"

One bottle of honey was two jin, so five hundred bottles meant one thousand jin.

"No problem," Ling Chu agreed without hesitation. "Then what about the payment?"

"Do you want sea shells, pearls, or currency from other races? I have every kind of currency here."

"Sea shells," Ling Chu said. "Also, I'd like to take a look at your goods and buy a few things."

Ling Chu and Babu Guanguan were getting along splendidly in their conversation. She thought to herself that the information Babu Jiujiu had given her was incredibly useful.

Just a few bottles of honey had opened the door to trade. Compared to the other Babu merchants, Babu Guanguan was the easiest hurdle to clear.

Of course, honey was a precious commodity
