CHAPTER 325: Karlqi Family
Soon, Zhao Hai followed Ibel to the back residence of Spring Grass Residence, a place where only the closest friends were allowed, which showed Zhao Hai's importance in Ibel's heart.
After they sat down in the living room, Ibel laughed and said to Laura and the others, “With your disguises, I can hardly recognize you. But that’s good; no one will pay attention to you, hahaha! Otherwise, your looks could easily attract trouble.” Zhao Hai and the others understood he was joking and all chuckled without saying much more.
Ibel looked at Zhao Hai and said, “Little Hai, I’m sorry about the incident with the Herculean Bull Tribe last time. I didn’t expect the people from the church of light to return to the grasslands again. By the time we received the news, it was already too late to inform you.”
Zhao Hai smiled and said, “It’s alright. Actually, I have a lot of intelligence to share with you this time. Please communicate it to the alliance.” Zhao Hai then informed Ibel about the ultimate weapon project of the church of light and the matter of brainwashing the orc children.
Ibel was evidently unaware of this intelligence. He looked serious and said, “So there’s such a thing. Fortunately, you told me. I think the alliance may not know this information yet; it’s very important for us.”
Zhao Hai smiled and said, “It’s good to help the alliance. We are all part of the alliance now, with a common enemy. Information I know should, of course, be shared with the alliance. Knowing it myself doesn’t serve much purpose.”
Ibel smiled and said, “Don’t worry, you won’t be giving this information away for free; the alliance will reward you for it. If you want money, the alliance will pay you; if you prefer not to take money, you can exchange it for contribution points. In the future, when you need any information, those contribution points will allow you to obtain it without additional costs. Plus, those with more contribution points will get priority on the information. There are many benefits.”
Zhao Hai smiled and said, “It sounds like you prefer me to exchange for contribution points. That’s fine, let’s go with contribution points. By the way, now that this is settled, we should talk about the milk liquor. How are you considering that?”
Ibel smiled and said, “Of course, I’ve been thinking about the milk liquor. Don’t worry, I’ve prepared everything. As soon as you deliver the milk liquor, I’ll start packaging it and sell it. No matter what, it has to be refined to fetch a good price.”
Zhao Hai smiled and said, “I’ll leave that to you. However, I need to clarify that for the delivery point each month, it’s best to choose a location on the grasslands or close to it. That way, no one will suspect me. I don’t want them to know about my involvement with the milk liquor yet.”
Upon hearing this, Ibel understood Zhao Hai’s concerns but didn’t mind. He smiled and said, “That’s easy. I have a base on the grasslands. You can deliver the milk liquor there. I’ll give you a map shortly. There are my people stationed there year-round, and that tribe has a cooperative relationship with me, so it’s absolutely reliable.”
Zhao Hai nodded and said, “That’s good. What do you think the sales volume of the milk liquor will be?”
Ibel thought for a moment and said, “Let’s start with what we discussed earlier—one thousand pounds a month. Once the market opens up, we can purchase more.”
Zhao Hai nodded and said, “That sounds good. I’ll collaborate with you here in the Aksu Empire, but I might need to find a partner in the Roson Empire. By the way, do you have any connections in the Roson Empire? Connections with the alliance will do. Otherwise, I’ll be going there blind.”
Ibel laughed and said, “I can’t even tap into the market of the Aksu Empire alone; having that market is enough. Have you calculated how much income it can bring to the alliance?”
