On Credit!

"Withdraw the payment?"

Zhu Houcai repeated.

At this moment, the smile on his face no longer held even a trace of sincerity or ingratiation. It was filled with nothing but coldness!

"After beating around the bush for so long, customer, you might as well just say you want to buy on credit from my shop."

"Ah, yes, yes, that's more or less what I mean." Lu Li grinned, revealing a mouthful of neat white teeth.

"But strictly speaking, this doesn't count as buying on credit."

"After all, I've left something here as collateral. It can't exactly be called an unsecured promise."

"Hehe..." Zhu Houcai smiled without any warmth.

"Leaving aside the fact that the value of a Perfect Quality item simply isn't enough to serve as collateral for this batch of goods."

"Even if it were enough, why should I believe that you, esteemed customer, will definitely make up the payment on time?"

"And please don't suggest signing an Oath Contract. If this ends up becoming a bad debt, I'll be the one out of luck."

The transaction amount was simply too large.

An ordinary Oath Contract was nowhere near enough to bind someone.

What if Lu Li was the contract slave of some Player, bound by another contract and deliberately sent here to trade with him?

Then, even if they signed an Oath Contract, the final price paid would be nothing more than Lu Li's life.

It would not make up for the losses at all!

"Mm, that makes sense. For no reason at all, I really can't ask you to take such a huge risk." Lu Li nodded in agreement.

Then his tone suddenly shifted, and he said loudly:

"But I'm different!"

"You're different?" Zhu Houcai froze for a moment, the mockery in his smile growing even stronger.
