"Haha, Mr. Mu Hua, this is the first time I heard that a demon merchant took the initiative to come to our door not to sell goods, but to purchase from humans."

In the bright and tidy office, a capable woman wearing a white coat over her professional attire looked at Mu Hua, who was sitting lazily on the sofa, with a proud smile.

It is still the Ukuru Courtyard. If the blood clan dominated the military power of Ukuru, then the Great Gobi Desert originally controlled by the Naiden Group was included in the governance of the Daryl Group.

"Harrison..." Mu Hua sighed.

"Lulu." A woman who was either a researcher or a manager corrected and interrupted.

"Hasn't anyone told you that offending a ghost or god is extremely unwise?" Mu Hua twitched his lips as he looked at the young, capable and beautiful woman in front of him.

Although she looks young and beautiful, she is an old woman who is the same type as Caroline in the past. She has spent money on youth potions and her age is a mystery.

"Lulu." The woman with the last name Harrison corrected again.

"Okay, okay, Lulu, we have to make it clear. It was you who took the initiative to find me, and believe me, no devil businessman will include you in the category of customers." Mu Hua said helplessly.

Harrison Lulu is the technical director of the Daryl Group at the Ukuru Yard.

The job title is low-key, but the Great Gobi Desert can be regarded as an industrial zone. Now that the Daryl Group has taken over the former military-industrial enterprises of the Great Gobi Desert, the woman in front of her can be regarded as the highest manager who controls the entire civilian and military affairs of the Great Gobi Desert.

Just as Mu Hua said, he did not sense Lulu's call. To put it bluntly, the woman pretending to be young in front of him did not meet the devil businessman's criteria for judging high-quality customers.

Unless they can obtain rare resources, demon merchants basically choose and cultivate customers for the purpose of trading compensation, so they generally don't waste time on people who can't even whisper.

Mu Hua has been having a hard time lately. Even wandering around the Ukuru courtyard and releasing bees can be considered a form of entertainment. If he sees someone calling out to the devil in this courtyard, he will occasionally respond.

Lulu took the initiative to send someone to find him, and Mu Hua only came to the Great Gobi Desert to meet her because he wanted to see if he could buy some things he needed from Daryl.

"Mr. Mu Hua, I am the highest person in charge of Daryl's Ukuru Courtyard. I must remind you that the position of technical director has a very high status in Daryl Group." Lulu said to the lazy Mu Hua.

"And then?" Mu Hua raised his neck which was leaning back on the sofa.

"I have enough wealth and connections, and for a demon businessman who lacks accumulation, it seems unnecessary to focus all his attention on transaction compensation." Lulu said with a smile.

The devil merchant is not a producer. Even if the transaction compensation can materialize anything that is not related to the soul, if the fantasy materialized things are traded, no transaction compensation will be generated.

Therefore, the devil merchants engage in reselling, and because customer demands are diverse, they also need to improve their procurement channels.

Purchasing goods naturally costs money. What the woman in front of him wants to express is probably that no matter whether she meets the devil merchants' criteria for customers, she should be taken seriously by Mu Hua, a novice foreign devil who has no support from the Hell Chamber of Commerce.

"Hehe, you should know that it's impossible for me to not have my own purchasing channels, right?" Lulu was full of confidence, and Mu Hua replied with disdain.

"Of course, the materials needed for many of your alchemical products are hard to find in the human world, and with your strength, it's not surprising that you can contact a few demon merchants."

"But I also know that purchasing should be considered a part of the transactions between demon merchants, right? It is impossible for there to be no premium when purchasing from other demon merchants." Lulu said with a smile.

"Yes, yes, are you sure you are a technician?" Mu Hua said weakly.

"You look exhausted, but considering your age and background, it's understandable that you're attacking two courtyards at the same time. You probably don't have the energy to manage some resource-intensive courtyards now."

"Mr. Mu Hua, you should see that my expertise is in the military industry, and I also have the authority to provide you with sufficient war weapons at a lower price." Lulu said seriously.

"Yeah, yeah, I know, but you also have to understand that what you want is the warp potion. With the warp potion, I can even hire ghosts and gods to work for me. Even if I take the warp potion to find Aurora, she should be able to provide me with cheap weapons, right?" Mu Hua shook his head.

Lulu's analysis of Mu Hua was not wrong, and Mu Hua was indeed very concerned about the purchasing channels in the human world, but the problem was that the things this woman wanted to buy from him were rather special. Not to mention that his friends were still waiting to be fed, and the warp potion was not a problem to sell, Mu Hua still felt that this woman's strength and status were not compatible with the warp potion, or in other words, if the warp potion was the premise, Mu Hua looked down on this woman.

"No, you may be able to hire ghosts and gods, but that is only temporary power after all. This kind of investment is not in your long-term interests. You may even have to use favors. For a being of your level, favors are very expensive."

"And, as for Aurora... Well, don't get me wrong, I don't mean to belittle you. I just want to say that Aurora should have a more suitable channel to obtain goods than you." Lulu said carefully, but Mu Hua always felt that there was some playfulness in her caution.

"Tsk~, Mephisto?" Mu Hua raised his eyebrows. Aurora has a strong background and is Daryl's boss. Given her level, Mephisto probably wouldn't mind providing her with some conveniences.

"As far as I know, the third one is just one of them." Lulu walked over to sit opposite Mu Hua, lifting her smooth legs. This woman was not wearing stockings, but a short skirt that covered her hips. On her feet, she was wearing a pair of large slippers that could be thrown off at any time. . .

"Okay, don't beat around the bush. Just pretend I never mentioned Aurora. But as for the warp potion, I won't have any trouble finding high-quality customers with it." Mu Hua rolled his eyes at Lulu, his eyes full of contempt for her rhetoric.

"..." Lulu was stunned, then smiled bitterly and shook her head. She really wanted to arouse Mu Hua's competitive spirit, but unfortunately, she failed.

Just as Mu Hua said, if we only talk about Aurora, or if we only compare Mu Hua with other demon merchants, Mu Hua really has no advantage.

But the problem is, Mu Hua doesn't have to compete with them.

Slowly manage your own customers and find some more vulnerable devil merchants to step on. Isn't that nice? Why do you compare yourself with others?
The so-called high aspirations but low skills is a common problem among newbies in all walks of life. This problem does not only mean that they are neither high nor low. The behavior of always taking the "top" as the goal to strive for may sound passionate, but it is actually quite stupid.

"Heh, you still want to give me some encouragement? Forget it." Mu Hua teased.

“...” Lulu’s eyes twitched.

"Okay, please forgive my offense, Your Majesty. I do need the warping potion. It concerns my life." After a moment of silence, Lulu said in a heavy tone.

"How old... are you?" Mu Hua frowned.

"One hundred and thirty years old." Lulu said.

"...Have you ever calculated your own lifespan?" Mu Hua also tended to be a little nervous.

"I've measured it, and it's probably about two hundred years away." Lulu said honestly.

"That's about your life, why are you in a hurry to buy the warp potion?" Mu Hua was a little angry.

"I have money, so there's no harm in preparing in advance." Lulu said as if it was a matter of course.

"Do you want to die?" She seemed like a heartless woman, but Mu Hua always felt that he was being fooled by her.

"No, no, no, I'm telling the truth. I don't practice cultivation, hunt demons, support men, or raise children. I don't have much time on weekdays, and I don't have much money to spend. In my opinion, the warp potion is a very cost-effective product." Lulu explained seriously.

"Do you know that the probability of successful transition is related to personal attributes?" Mu Hua couldn't help but ask.

"know."

"Know? If you know, why are you still talking about cost-effectiveness? With your unreliable attributes, you still have the nerve to talk about cost-effectiveness?"

"It never hurts to try more. I have a lot of money, so maybe I'll get lucky."

"..." Mu Hua was speechless for a moment. Based on this somewhat bizarre train of thought, Mu Hua finally believed that this older leftover woman who was pretending to be young was a technician! (End of this chapter)
