Chapter 16 Big business
Sheng Heng couldn’t help but smile with relief when he saw that Yan Hao had figured it out. He really didn’t know how his little junior, who was naive, obviously a god of learning and who should have been a proud son of heaven, could have developed such an inferior personality.
“Senior, what are you doing here?” This was the lab room of the Mecha Building Department, so Sheng Heng was probably here to see him.
“Naturally, I’m looking for you.” It was only then that Sheng Heng remembered his purpose of looking for Yan Hao, ” I’m here to give you an order list.”
“An order list?” Yan Hao froze for a moment.
“Didn’t we promise to do business together? I’ve found some buyers.” Sheng Heng knew that Yan Hao was short of money, so after he promised to help him sell the energy blocks, he immediately started looking for a way to sell them, intending to help Yan Hao make more money.
The Mech Building Department was a lucrative industry, and Sheng Heng didn’t want Hao Yan to be restricted by the lack of money.
“You have already found some buyers?” Hao Yan looked surprised.
“Yes, I’ve found some.” Sheng Heng nodded his head.
Wasn’t it just selling energy blocks? Look at you, as if you’ve never seen the world before.
If Sheng Heng hadn’t said proposed this idea first, and Yan Hao hadn’t agreed, He Shao could have helped Yan Hao sell the energy block himself. This was an energy block with an efficiency of over 80%, an expert level energy block, how could it not be sold? All they had to do was shout about it on the school’s website and there would be people lining up to order it.
“How much is it?”
“The initial order is a 1000 pieces for 2,200 star coins a piece.” Sheng Heng said.
“2200?!” Yan Hao was shocked, “Isn’t it said that the market price is 2,000 star coins?”
Not only was Yan Hao shocked, even He Shao was surprised to hear this, because although the level 4 energy block made by Yan Hao was really good, it was still only a level 4 energy block and level 4 energy blocks were low to mid-range energy blocks. What’s more their energy storage ability was actually a bit awkward.
Low-level mechs didn’t use expert level energy blocks and most high-level mechs were equipped with weapons that consumed a lot of energy, so level 4 energy blocks didn’t have enough energy for a continuous supply. This was why, level 4 energy blocks were used mostly during non-combat practice. Therefore, although they were highly effective, they didn’t fetch a high price, unlike the energy blocks after level 7 which were almost priceless if one could reach the master level.
2000 stars was the market price and no one would be willing to pay 10% more for a level 4 energy block.
“I told them that the builder of the level 4 energy block is a mech genius and soon he will be making level 5, 6, and even 7 energy blocks with the same effect. If they are willing to show good faith from now on, then they will become our good customers.” Sheng Heng said with a light smile.
So this was how it was, so treacherous. It dawned on He Shao that he wasn’t just selling level 4 energy blocks, he was selling the future value of Yan Hao. This Senior Sheng Heng shouldn’t have come to the Mecha Department at all, he should have gone to the Business Department.
“Is that okay?” Yan Hao didn’t know anything about sales, he just thought it sounded great.
“Do you know how much the energy blocks are in demand after level seven if they can still maintain their effectiveness at master level?” He Shao said loudly.
Yan Hao shook his head honestly.
“You, you seriously don’t know what you’re worth.” He Shao said with a tone of hating iron for not becoming steel.
Sheng Heng agreed with what He Shao had just said. Yan Hao really didn’t know what he was worth, “But, I’ve already made a promise with them, so don’t let me down.”
“En, don’t worry, I’m going to start working hard on the energy blocks, I’m almost ready to make a level 5 energy block. If the formula for the energy block and the method of compressing the energy is as I expected, I should be able to make 80% of the level 7 energy block you promised them.” As a partner, Sheng Heng had already demonstrated his ability, so Yan Hao naturally didn’t want to be out of his depth.
Sheng Heng was surprised to hear him talk so much and then he couldn’t help but laugh: “Now you’ve become more confident.”
“It’s not that. I calculated it based on the existing formula, as long as I don’t make any mistakes, there will be no problem.” Yan Hao emphasized.
“That’s not what I meant.” Sheng Heng was speechless, this little guy is quite serious. “And when I say don’t let me down, it’s not that I’m afraid you won’t be able to produce a master level 7 energy block. I’m just saying that when you’re done making them and you’re a great master and you’ve got people asking to buy them from you, remember my promise to these quality customers to sell it to them first.”
“Yes, of course.” Yan Hao, after hearing this, looked like it wasn’t any big deal. “From now onwards, I will give you priority in selling all my energy blocks.”
“We only signed an agreement for the sale of the level 4 energy blocks.” Sheng Heng reminded.
“Is that so? I didn’t notice? Can’t I sell all the energy blocks I make in the future to you?” Yan Hao asked.
“Only energy blocks?” Sheng Heng smiled and asked.
“Do you want to sell other things?” Yan Hao was stunned then said hurriedly, “If you think you can sell anything I make in the future, I’ll give you first preference in all.”
“Okay, I’ll note it down.” Sheng Heng smiled happily and Yan Hao smiled back with trust.
He Shao looked at this unusually harmonious scene and felt a breath of air blocking his chest.
Hao Hao, you’re still smiling, you almost sold yourself to him in a package.
“Let me transfer the money from the order to you now.” Sheng Heng said then looking down, worked something on his light brain and told Yan Hao, “Check it.”
Yan Hao heard a prompt from his light brain and clicked on it to see that his account had just been credited with 1.76 million star coins. With Yan Hao’s mental calculation skills, he knew almost as soon as he saw the amount that it was his share of the total amount of the order, minus the processing fee.
“Why is it the full amount?” He hadn’t given the energy blocks yet and wasn’t it usually a deposit given first?
“I made them pay the full amount.” His little junior was short of money, so he made those guys pay in full. Anyways, those guys weren’t short of money.
Yan Hao didn’t know anything about this, but when he heard Sheng Heng explain it, he didn’t think twice about it and said immediately, “I’ve already done some of it this time.
“There’s no rush.”
“There has to be. They’ve already paid the money, so we have to deliver the goods as soon as possible.” Yan Hao said seriously.
“Alright then, you take care of it, just don’t delay your classes.” Sheng Heng didn’t insist.
“I’m sure I can finish it in seven days and then I’ll send it to you.” After saying this, Yan Hao took He Shao’s hand, “He Shao, let’s go buy the materials.”

🤣😅🤣
I feel you He Shao, Yan Hao gonna give himself to SH too fast🤣
+They’re giving dog food without realising it lol…especially when SH ask if our xiao Hao only wanted to sell energy block, my mind goes 👀🫂👅😳😳gosh I read to much smutty bl 🤣😳😳
I had the same feeling when he said he’d “entrust his axle to him” at their second meeting. Like, that somehow sounded like a proposal.
Mc is really irritating now, I know it’s cute and all but it’s business it’s serious matter and he should educate himself about it not be a stupid bitxh shaking head every question omg
don’t read if its irritate you.
If you don’t find it appealing, don’t read it. We are only in chapter 16 and the novel is 107 chapters. He will have developments just like when he thought second place was good but HS and SH told him to like himself 🤦♀️ this types of comments turn me off from reading 😭
It’s a habit and mindset learned from trauma and years of inexperience. It takes time to undo all the damage caused by years of neglect, isolation and rejection from his peers, family and bystanders. He’s a genius at calculation not a business wizard. The rest is the result of his diligence and hardwork. It takes more time and help for him to relearn the right social cues, common sense and information for daily life (including economic-related info).
