"You came around pretty quickly." The corners of Huang Jiu's lips lifted slightly as she said directly, "Send me the basic information and locations of those Grandmasters. If things go quickly, I might be able to settle it for you today."
"I'll send the information over right away, but there's been a slight change to the plan." After a pause, Hujin explained, "One person in the Obsidian Martial Arts Hall you want me to deal with is stronger than I expected. Their strength may be no less than that of a Half-step Spirit Merging expert."
"An expert no weaker than Half-step Spirit Merging?" Huang Jiu was first stunned, then smiled. "Hujin, you should know that an expert at that level doesn't come at the price I quoted before. If you want me to make the capture, one million tons of Fourth-tier Blood Food. Payment first, then I act. No bargaining. I'll only guarantee that I'll give it my all. If I fail, the money won't be refunded. You understand the rules, right?"
Originally, she had thought Hujin would rack his brains trying to haggle, since thirty thousand tons of Fourth-tier Blood Food was no small sum. Back in the day, even she would likely have needed a year of hard work to earn that much.
But to her now, that was merely pocket change. After all, she was already a Half-step Spirit Merging expert. A casual job from her cost fifty or sixty thousand tons of Fourth-tier Blood Food, or items of equivalent value.
She actually had no interest in a deal worth thirty thousand tons of Fourth-tier Blood Food. It was only because an old friend on Azure Star had said there was a major deal to discuss that she had decided to take Hujin's business on the side.
