Chapter 962: Convincing Mr. He

"What can cost so much?" He Lingchuan really couldn't understand, "Eighty thousand taels, enough for me to buy the Yangshan Islands!"

"Are you comparing like that?" Dong Rui pointed in the direction where Fang Canran's back disappeared, "Then a broken sword head can be sold for eight hundred thousand, which is equivalent to ten islands of yours, right?"

The sword head of Shou'an Zhenxian was successfully sold in Dunyuan, which is managed by Fang Canran.

"Because of lack of money and materials, my research has been stagnant for a long time." Dong Rui rubbed his hands, "Once these eighty thousand taels of materials come, I can use them for a long time."

"..." He Lingchuan said with a straight face, "What the hell are you researching!"

"Remember the child-eating beast you gave me? The one that couldn't be hatched?"

"I regret it." He should have thrown that thing away in the Panlong Desert!

"It's a good thing, a good thing!" Dong Rui's face was full of regret, "This is the first time I have got a live young beast. Judging from its insatiable needs, it is likely to be an ancient demon species."

"What species?"

"The famous giant demons in ancient times have mostly disappeared, such as dragons and phoenixes. The spiritual energy in today's world cannot bear their needs." Dong Rui explained casually, "But this child-eating beast you gave me survived after being transformed by someone unknown. But in order to stuff it into a human body, the Heavenly Palace tortured it so weak that it could easily die."

He Lingchuan frowned: "Is that beast a dragon or a phoenix?" Otherwise, how could he spend 80,000 taels of silver?

Dong Rui sneered: "Do you only imagine dragons and phoenixes as giant monsters? Poor, really poor!"

"What is that?"

"It has entered the childhood stage and its characteristics are not obvious. I can only be sure that it is a monster of the earth scales."

He Lingchuan frowned: "At that time, no matter how much the Heavenly Palace Cloud Envoy He Jing urged it, it refused to leave its host and come out to help. Are you sure that this thing will listen to you in the future?"

"Is He Jing the owner?"

"I don't know." Would the Cloud Envoy personally raise the Hu beast? This knowledge point is not within the scope of He Lingchuan's mastery.

"Then he may not know that this beast is weak after birth and has extremely high requirements for food and spiritual energy. The end of being summoned at that time was death, so it refused."

"I heard that the beast is difficult to control."

"Difficult? Almost uncontrollable! Almost!" Dong Rui glared at him, "Only my demon puppet can command it like an arm."

He Lingchuan snorted: "What about Shenyuan?"

The giant beast Shenyuan, who fought with Zhuoju in Xushan, fought very methodically in the later stage and was obviously controlled by someone.

Dong Rui choked: "Almost means there are occasional exceptions. The Heavenly Palace is so powerful that it can train a few obedient ones. What's so strange about that?"

"But the little Hu beast you gave me is too weak, and after being transformed by the blind chicken of the Heavenly Palace, it will grow into a complete body immediately after it is born to help the lightkeeper fight. But this process is like pulling up the seedlings for growth, which will exhaust all its life force in a short time. After it is born, whether it fights or not, it will die soon!"

He Lingchuan said, the so-called child-eating 鬾 beast, it turned out to be a disposable combat consumable.

The Heavenly Palace team brought them out and didn't plan to take them back.

"This little thing is very spiritual, so it instinctively rejected He Jing's call." Dong Rui explained, "But the nourishment I am doing can replenish its vitality and regulate its acquired deficiency, so that it will come out naturally at the right time. Haha, this little guy is lucky to meet me!"

Lucky? He Lingchuan was amused. Don't look at this guy's righteous face. Is his process of researching and making demon puppets less torturous?

"Of course, I have to make some modifications to it to make it stronger!"

That's right, this is the Dong Rui that He Lingchuan knows, who never stops talking about his profession.

"But due to lack of funds and materials, my research on demon puppets has been stagnant for a long time!" Dong Rui said confidently, "But you don't let me go out to make money myself!"

Then of course he can only ask for it.

"..."

He Lingchuan was helpless: "What can this 80,000 do after spending it, and what effect can it have?"

He is the boss, and of course he must see results after spending the money!

"Let me put it this way." Dong Rui looked serious, knowing that this was related to his future research funding, "The 鬬 beast that can be taken by Du Yunshi He Jing to play the finale is not an ordinary player. It's just because this little guy has flaws, otherwise he shouldn't be raised as a child-eating 鬾 beast. If this 鬾 beast can be successfully adjusted, its initial combat power will be at least five or six times that of the violent ape - I mean the initial stage - as long as it is well trained in the future, its growth will be limitless!"

He was very rigorous and added "initial stage".

Even so, He Lingchuan stared at him grimly: "Are you bragging?"

"No!" Dong Rui said seriously, "Is this a joke? The growth of the demon puppet does not necessarily depend on the spiritual energy."

"I think you are trying to defraud the funds. You don't even know what species this beast is."

"Each one is a species, and there is no way to classify" Dong Rui was not to be outdone, "Each one is a species, and there is no way to classify it!"

The two were arguing, Fang Canran came back and coughed beside them.

Dong Rui immediately changed the target: "How is it, is it possible?"

Fang Canran hesitated for a rare moment before saying: "Do you need these three materials urgently in the near future?"

"No, but I will definitely need them in a few months."

He Lingchuan interrupted: "Aren't they for the beast?"

Dong Rui glanced at him and said, "Yes, it is used for the research of mutation and stability of demon puppets. Both the beast and the demon puppet are the products of mutation. They are unstable and prone to collapse and madness. Even the Heavenly Palace has not been able to deal with them yet. But ours has no signs of coming out yet."

"It is very difficult to get these three materials, and it is not very formal." Fang Canran said slowly, "I can find someone to find a way. I am 80% sure that I can get it, but I have to pay half of the deposit in advance, which is-"

"-100,000 taels!"

To buy these three materials, a total of 200,000 taels is required? Not to mention the other materials listed on the list, which will also consume 80,000 taels. He Lingchuan's eyes went dark.

Seeing this, Dong Rui immediately persuaded: "It is also very expensive for you to make a golden armor bronze general, and it is not as useful as my demon puppet, right?"

He Lingchuan's golden armor bronze general wants to upgrade to a god general, which is also an astronomical figure, and there is a limit on the summoning time; the demon puppet is different. As long as Dong Rui commands properly, it can run for a long time, such as the snail toad that carried them for tens of thousands of miles.

Dong Rui continued, "If you spend a few hundred thousand taels and you can get a powerful monster that can fight, and it may continue to grow in the future, would you do it?"
