Chapter 710 Hatching Eggs (1)
Lin Fan just calmly replied, "That's my offer, you can take it if you want."
There was a very long silence this time, much longer than any of the other silences that came before this.
After around five minutes, the other side finally said, "I can't decide this on my own, I have to talk to old Huang and old Bai first before I get back to you."
Lin Fan didn't mind as he said, "Alright, but the sooner you get them to me, the better."
The other side gave a bitter laugh before saying, "If you wanted them sooner, why didn't you tell me sooner?"
Lin Fan didn't choose to reply to this.
After all, it wasn't like he could just say that his system suddenly gave him a mission since he would have been treated as a crazy person.
So instead Lin Fan just remained silent for the other side to draw their own conclusion.
Seeing that Lin Fan didn't say anything, the other side gave a sigh and said, "Just give me some time and I'll give you an answer."
Lin Fan just agreed and then hung up after some pleasantries.
The person that Lin Fan had called was the president of the Tamers Guild.
After what happened last time, the president had given him his personal line just in case he needed anything.
Since he had this connection, it would be a waste not to use it.
Half an hour later, Lin Fan received another call.
When he picked up, it wasn't just the president, but also the two vice presidents.
The president did my waste any time as he directly said, "Be honest, what is the best that you can sell to us?"
Lin Fan revealed a wry smile before saying, "What are you expecting?"
There was a period of silence, but he could hear the sounds of whispers coming from the other side. It was clear that this was an important matter for the Tamers Guild, so they were discussing it real time.
After that silence, the president said, "One hundred Child Soul Realm beasts and ten Nascent Soul Realm beasts."
Lin Fan slightly knitted his brows when he heard this.
The first offer that he made was a low one just so he would have space to negotiate with the Tamers Guild, but he never expected their appetite to be this big.
It had to be known that most of the twelve great factions only had around ten to twenty Nascent Soul Realm Experts to begin with. All of these people were elders and were considered some of the most important people in this upper realm.
Now that they wanted ten Nascent Soul Realm beasts, it meant that they wanted to almost double the amount of Nascent Soul Realm Experts under them.
But taking it a bit deeper, the Tamers Guild really was being greedy.
For tamers like them, they knew that the success rate of hatching eggs was very low, being around 1%.
After all, there were many different factors that could affect the success rate, so that was why the success rate was so low.
Even if they knew that Lin Fan most likely had some kind of special techniques after his performance in the exam, they could only give him a conservative estimate of 20%.
That meant that they believed that only 20% of the eggs that they gave Lin Fan would hatch, which was two hundred Child Soul Realm Beasts and twenty Nascent Soul Realm beasts.
For them to ask for one hundred Child Soul Realm beasts and ten Nascent Soul Realm beasts, they were basically asking for what they assumed would be half of what would hatch!
By their standard, the first offer that Lin Fan gave was already very generous, but when it came to these large factions, if they could be greedy, they would be greedy.
They hadn't lasted all their time because of their kindness, but rather because their faces were thicker than city walls.
But to Lin Fan, what they were asking for wasn't considered that much since he knew that he was certain to hatch all of the eggs that he received with the help of the system.
Still, he wasn't willing to give this much to the Tamers Guild because of other reasons.
To put it simply, he didn't want to give this much to the Tamers Guild because he wanted to give more to factions that he was even closer to. For example, the Hunters Organization, the Myriad Sword Hall, and maybe the Alchemy King Hall.
So after a moment of silence, Lin Fan said, "The best I can do is seventy Child Soul Realm beasts and seven Nascent Soul Realm beasts."
The president didn't reply right away as more whispers came from the other side. Then he suddenly said, "How about eighty and eight?"
Lin Fan immediately countered with, "Five more Child Soul Realm beasts, that's the most I can do."
The president was silent once again, but this time it didn't last long. After all, they had heard the determined tone in Lin Fan's voice, so they knew that they wouldn't be able to push any further.
So with a sigh, the president said, "Alright, we'll agree to those terms."
Lin Fan gave a chuckle as he said, "It's a pleasure doing business with you."
Then he said in a serious voice, "How long will it take before you can deliver these eggs to me?"
The president said in a bitter voice, "It's not a small amount that you're asking for, so it'll take a while…" As he said this, he left his words hanging, as if he was waiting for a response from Lin Fan.
Lin Fan didn't mind since he had already expected this, so he just said, "I'll add in five more Child Soul Realm beasts and a Nascent Soul Realm beast if you can get it here tomorrow."
The president gave a bitter laugh, but he still said, "Owner Lin, you really drive a hard bargain…"
Lin Fan said, "Well, maybe I can go look for the Hunters Organization to help me get the eggs instead."
The president no longer hesitated as he immediately said, "Tomorrow it is, we will get it to you tomorrow. Please don't forget your words."
Without even waiting for Lin Fan to say anything, the president immediately hung up as if he was afraid that Lin Fan would go back on his word.
Lin Fan shook his head with a bitter smile, but he didn't say anything else about this.
Now, what he needed to do next was find people to sell these pets to.
After all, he needed to make sure that he could sell to all the people of the twelve great factions, but to do that, he had to make them aware of the fact that he was selling these pets.
It was easier for some of the factions since he was close to them, but for the other factions…
Especially the True Spirit Sect, the Thunder Sect, and the Assassins Association.
Well, perhaps he didn't need to sell to those three factions since he wanted to see them disappear in the first place…
But for now, he would at least contact the Hunters Organization and the Myriad Sword Hall.
So he raised his watch and dialed old man Qiao first.
"You're saying that you can sell the Hunters Organization Child Soul Realm beasts and Nascent Soul Realm beasts? Are you kidding?"
That was old man Qiao's first reaction to the offer that Lin Fan made.
His second reaction was, "How many can you sell? We'll take as many as you have."
After all, the Hunters Organization didn't lack money.
Lin Fan told him, "A hundred Child Soul Realm beasts and ten Nascent Soul Realm beasts."
His starting offer was what the Tamers Guild's maximum was. This was the difference between his relationship with the Tamers Guild and the Hunters Organization.
After a period of silence, old man Qiao suddenly asked, "Just this? Can't you give us a bit more?"
Lin Fan shook his head with a faint smile before saying, "Alright, how much more do you want?"
Old man Qiao thought for a bit before saying, "How about fifty more Child Soul Realm beasts and five more Nascent Soul Realm beasts?"
Lin Fan thought about it before saying, "Alright, that's not a problem. However, I can only give you the extra beasts later than the first batch. Will that be a problem?"
Old man Qiao immediately replied, "No problem at all. As long as you can get us these extra beasts, it's not a problem at all."
Then after a pause he asked, "Do you want something from us in return for these beasts?"
That was the question that had been on his mind. After all, it was just too strange how Lin Fan suddenly offered to sell these beasts to the Hunters Organization.
How could Lin Fan not know what he was thinking?
Lin Fan just said, "It's just something that I had a stock of and needed to sell, so you're doing me a favour. However, you can just take this as me doing a favour for the Hunters Organization if you want."
Old man Qiao gave a nod before saying, "Alright, the Hunters Organization will owe you one then."
There was nothing else to say, so Lin Fan hung up after that.
The next person that he called was Wang Jian.
Wang Jian was also surprised by the offer that Lin Fan made, but he didn't accept that quickly like old man Qiao. After all, he didn't have the same authority as old man Qiao in the Hunters Organization in the Myriad Sword Hall.
Something as important as this couldn't be decided by him alone.
So Wang Jian said that he would report this to his master and see what the elders thought before getting back to Lin Fan.
As they were about to finish, Lin Fan suddenly realized something and he asked, "Do you sword cultivators even need these beasts?"
