"Three thousand!"
Li Daqian's eyes lit up as he held up three fingers.
"In that case, the level of genetic life is limited to a maximum of five."
Ye Zhongming shook his head. Three thousand was an unreliable quantity; if Li Daqian wanted all level six genetic life, it would take a long time for Cloud Summit to fulfill this order.
The owner of Ten Thousand Beast Manor paced back and forth, clearly unable to maintain his composure over what could be the most valuable trade in the history of the manor.
"Five hundred; we must have at least five hundred level six genetic life forms. The rest can have a lower level."
Ye Zhongming pondered for a moment. Although the production cycle for genetic life at this level was long, once the experimental subjects were sufficient and the technology gradually matured, the speed could be improved.
But still, five hundred was too many.
"Three hundred; this is the upper limit we can supply, Li Manor Master. Manufacturing genetic life is not an assembly line process; it requires individual cultivation. Even if we have mastered this technology, we cannot supply it indefinitely."
"And regarding the timeline, it must be determined by us. Of course, we won't purposely delay it, but the delivery timeline, in the case of batches, will inevitably take about a year!"
Li Daqian looked at Ye Zhongming seriously, knowing that this King of Cloud Summit was likely not lying. After considering, he agreed.
This was actually beyond his expectations.
This meant that he could exchange two thousand seven hundred level four battle beasts for the same number of level five genetic life forms, and then use three hundred level five battle beasts to obtain three hundred level six genetic life forms. Within a year, he could add three thousand high-end combat forces to Ten Thousand Beast Manor. This was a deal!
Thus, Li Daqian was filled with anticipation for the remaining two-thirds from Ye Zhongming.
Ye Zhongming knew that he had made a good start with genetic life, and his confidence grew.
"Five hundred; exotic and rare battle beast cubs or eggs, and five hundred pieces of green-level equipment."
Li Daqian frowned upon hearing this, as he did not understand Ye Zhongming's meaning.
What did exotic and rare battle beasts mean?
Ye Zhongming thought for a moment and decided to be straightforward.
"Unlike the exotic battle beasts of Earth, most of them are of robust physique."
Li Daqian was stunned for a moment, then immediately recalled the rumors about Cloud Summit Villa being backed by a secret realm.
"One thousand."
Ye Zhongming rolled his eyes; it seemed that bargaining was an instinct for everyone.
"Equipment is not okay. The failure rate when I manufacture green-level equipment is extremely high. For five hundred pieces, I've already invested a lot."
Currently, Cloud Summit was undergoing major development in the Blue Secret Realm. Although they had been engaging in guerrilla warfare with the Nine-Winged Crow, which somewhat limited Cloud Summit's gains, they were still continuously plundering the secret realm with the help of the Temple of Dawn and posthumous children.
One very important gain was various demon monster cubs or demon monster eggs.
Cloud Summit lacked large beast pool equipment and didn't have many master-servant contract scrolls. They could only rely on the warriors to cultivate relationships to gain recognition from the demon monsters, which had a low success rate. Many warriors were either unwilling or lacked the energy to nurture these young little demons, which had a long growth cycle.
This led to Cloud Summit Manor currently having a 'surplus' of many demon monster cubs or demon monster eggs. The Life Gene Laboratory had digested a portion, but there were still large amounts lying in the warehouse, ignored, and often used to feed the bloodlines of iron lock prisoners that produced Ghost Gold, or the Underworld Bone Demon Platform, or even the carnivorous plants and other battle beasts.
It could be said that Ye Zhongming proposed this condition as a kind of mutually beneficial arrangement with Ten Thousand Beast Manor, but less charitably, it was a major clearance sale.
