The legend of the Crimson Demon clan started from Suqing.

Chapter 95 Don’t Underestimate My Intelligence Network (17000)

"Well... I don't have any money."

"What's wrong, Zunzun?"

"It's okay, just sighing."

The skill point potion has been sold to Yu Jian Xiangye. Although the price of 2200W Eris is not a cheap sale, he did not get a lot of money because it was paid in installments, and is still in a relatively tight situation.

As for why you want money?

Of course I want to move to a bigger house.

Living in a hotel is really not free. If you speak a little louder you will be scolded, which is very unpleasant.

Huihui said excitedly, “Then let’s go on a mission! Let’s do a difficult mission! After all, with a powerful explosion magician like me here, no matter how powerful the monster is, I can easily deal with it!”

"Okay, let's go check it out."

The three of them came to the task assignment board.

The tasks were similar to the previous ones, namely [Purify water sources from landslides], [Expel evil spirits from the mansion] and [Ruined castle in the suburbs], and these three tasks concerned him the most.

"Hmm... there aren't any good missions."

"No, that's not right. Cutting down the Aigil trees has a negative impact on the forest, and looking for the lost pet white wolf and the one-shot rabbit..."

"Not strong enough! Not strong enough at all!"

Huihui's shout startled Yunyun.

Zun Zun understood her thoughts. After all, with a fire poker in his hand, everyone looked like Freya to him. He would feel itchy if he didn't poke her a few times.

Youyou asked curiously, "Speaking of money... I remember that Zun Zun is the best at making high-level magic tools and potions. He will surely make money soon. So why not sell magic tools?"

"Because I am kind."

"Um???"

"No."

Zun Zun waved his hand.

Magical props don't necessarily mean you can sell them for a lot of money once you make them. It depends on whether the adventurers can use them. Otherwise, if you make weird props like Piao Sanlang, you will end up losing everything.

But he was unwilling to bow down and make modern props like Sato Kazuma.

The main reason is that it really doesn’t make money.

It is undeniable that modern props are selling very well, but the problem is that the profit is too low. The reason why Sato Kazuma can make so much money is purely because Vanir has a good vision and spent a large amount of money to buy all the copyright fees.

But Zun Zun is not like Vanir, who can create a large number of clones to mass-produce with small profits but quick turnover, and he doesn't have a lot of black... ahem, coolies to serve as tools.

But...magic tools?

Youyou did remind him that he could also sell magic items and even borrow chickens to lay eggs!
Isn't there a useless lich lady who runs a magic item shop in this town but is so poor that she can barely afford to eat? Can he take advantage of it?

Even though Wiz's magic item shop is poorly managed and has always been in the red, Wiz is very popular and very well-liked. Many people go to the magic item shop to visit... As for what they visit, I can only say that those who understand will understand.

After asking the lady at the counter, Zun Zun took the two of them to a somewhat remote street and saw a shop among many shops.

【Wiz's Magical Item Shop】

A very unpretentious name.

Hui Hui looked at the slightly small shop and asked curiously, "Zun Zun, why are we here?"

"Come on, big one."

Zun Zun took out a bottle of skill-enhancing potion.

He made a total of three bottles of skill point potions at school. One of them was smashed by Cecily, another was bought by Yu Jian Xiangye, and the one he had in his hand was the last one left.

By the way, he drank all the drinks given by the school.

If he wants to sell something, he should sell his own work. What's the point of selling other people's works? This is what he insists on as a master of magic props.

"Ohhh, skill point potion!"

Megumin's eyes lit up.

She knew how much this bottle of potion was worth. If she sold it, she would become a millionaire and be able to live a life of luxury!
jingle!

"welcome--"

When you push open the door, the clear and pleasant sound of wind chimes makes you feel soothed, followed by the gentle voice of an older sister and the sound of Duang~Duang~Duang~. What comes into view is the agar slime that is 3 plus signs bigger than Cecily!
I thought it was going to be a big wave, but it turned out to be such a huge wave!

Huihui looked at the unknown big sister's swollen oversized agar slime, then lowered her head to look at her own steel plate and toes, then suddenly raised her head and glared fiercely at Zun Zun who had a confused look on his face.

Why was she suddenly angry?
"Welcome guests... ah, it's you!"

Wiz was stunned for a moment after seeing Zun Zun, then clapped his hands and said with a smile: "The little brother of the Red Demon Clan, his name is... Zun Zun! Am I right?"

"It's me. Ms. Weiss, long time no see."

"Just call me Wiz. Wait a moment, I'll make some tea."

She was very happy to see Zun Zun, and then she swayed her plump figure and ran behind the counter, and soon came back with steaming tea and delicious snacks.

"Mmmmm--Hmph!"

For some reason, Megumin stared at Wiz unkindly, with her gaze mainly fixed on her chest.

The Lich Queen was a little scared.

"What, what's wrong?"

"Why are you so hostile?"

Zun Zun gave Hui Hui a knife and said, "You should thank Miss Weiss. She is your father's loyal customer. It is because of her that you, Hui Hui, did not starve to death."

"what?"

“Loyal customer?”

Wiz and Megumin were both stunned for a moment, but soon—

"Your father is Mr. Piao Saburo?"

"...Thank you for taking care of my father!"

Megumin bowed respectfully to Wiz.

The shop owner in front of her was like a life-saving goddess to her. If Wiz hadn't bought the strange magic props made by Piao Saburo, she and her sister Xiaomi would have starved to death long ago.

"No, no, I also really like the magic props made by Mr. Piao Saburo. They are so imaginative and creative!"

"Creativity?"

Huihui looked at her father's loyal fans in dumbfoundedness, and then turned to Zun Zun for help at a loss, only to receive the same speechless expression.

They talked a lot.

When he found out that they came out of the Crimson Devil's Village to become adventurers, Wiz seemed very happy and wished them to become excellent adventurers in the future. They were all very happy for a while.

Then, the atmosphere seemed to be about right.

"Ms. Weiss, I came here because I want to trouble you with something."

"Yes, what is it?"

"I hope you can help me sell this potion."

Zun Zun took out a skill-point potion.

Wiz was slightly surprised when he saw it and said, "Isn't this a very rare skill point potion? It's very popular among princes and nobles."

She used to be a famous adventurer. As an ice witch who often fought on the front lines, she was very powerful and of course she drank a lot of skill-enhancing potions.

"It's possible, but is it really good? Axel is a novice village, not everyone can afford it."

"It doesn't matter. We need to take a long-term view. Just because no one can afford it now doesn't mean no one will be able to in the future."

"Well, I'll help sell it then."

"Thank you." Wiz would not refuse such a small favor, and she didn't even charge any commission.

but!

He came here this time not just because of this!

"Ahem, Yunyun and Huihui, I suddenly remembered that my hotel stay seems to end today. Could you please renew the contract?"

"Hey, let's wait until we get back tonight..."

"Youyou, let's go."

Huihui seemed to know that Zunzun had something to say to Wiz alone, so she considerately took Youyou away from the magic tool shop.

She really made me cry to death.

After the two of them left, Zun Zun stopped being a gentleman. He drank a sip of tea and said casually, "Miss Weiss was a famous adventurer, right?"

"Eh? No, I..."

"Ice Witch."

Zun Zun interrupted her and said, "Ms. Wiz, you are a very famous bloodthirsty and super-combat adventurer. Although it has been a long time, your legend is still circulating in the capital, and many new adventurers come to this town because they admire you."

"How, how could it be... It's really embarrassing."

Wiz was a little shy, and said, "The main reason I opened a magic item shop in the Novice Village is that I hope my friends, including my former teammates, can come and play and reminisce at any time. I don't have any other ideas, so--"

"Even if I become a lich?"

"……Eh?"

"Even if he is one of the Demon King's army officers?"

Two hits.

After his identity was exposed, Wiz knelt on the ground with his body limp. He looked at Zun Zun in disbelief with his mouth slightly opened, muttering: "Why, why..."

"Don't underestimate my intelligence network. You are the officer responsible for maintaining the barrier of the Demon King's Castle, right?"

Zun Zun, who was sitting on the chair, looked down at her and said, "Ms. Wiz, you don't want others to know that you are a cadre of the Demon King's Army, do you?"

"No, don't... don't reveal my identity! Please! Don't tell anyone, I'm willing to do anything!"

With tears in his eyes, Wiz hugged Zun Zun's thighs. They were quite soft and a little cool, probably because of the lich's physique.

Ah, what?
The Red Demons have the nature of wanting to be in the spotlight and to play tricks when there is something going on. Zun Zun was just trying to show off subconsciously, but he didn't expect that Wiz would misunderstand him.

"That, that..."

"I see. If this satisfies you..."

I haven't said anything yet!
Zun Zun had a confused look on his face, and then he saw Wiz slowly unbuckle the belt on his chest. The agar slime, which originally had three more plus signs than Cecily, had another plus sign as if it had been liberated!
No, it can’t be!

Is it that big?
Before the situation became irreversible, Zun Zun grabbed her hand.

"...Wait, Ms. Wiz, that's not what I meant!"

"You don't want my money?"

Seeing Wiz with tears in his eyes and trembling hands dragging a shriveled purse, Zun Zun couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

Sure enough, wearing yellow glasses will only see yellow color.

"No, I don't want any money."

Zun Zun looked around the magic item shop at the dazzling array of strange magic items and said, "Ms. Wiz, as far as I know, your magic item shop has been running at a deficit for the past few months, right?"

“Yes, yes… I don’t know why, but the harder I work, the more I run into the red. It’s really a headache…”

Wiz looked distressed.

Then don’t buy weird products… or something like that, Zun Zun couldn’t say anything else, so he continued, “I think in a few months, your magic item store will go bankrupt.”

"What are you talking about? My magic tool shop is booming."

Steam, you can steam anything!

Wiz's confident look left Zun Zun speechless. He had given up on guiding her step by step and instead went straight to the point.

"Wiz, I'm here to discuss cooperation."

"cooperate?"

"Yes. Ms. Wiz should know that the Crimson Demons are basically excellent magic item masters. The skill point potion just now was made by me."

"Wow! That's amazing!"

The threatened Lich Queen is praising others instead. I wonder if she has a sense of crisis.

"So, I want to sell some magic items in Miss Wiz's magic item shop. Of course, I'm not asking you to buy them, but I want to use your counter. I'll give you a portion of the profits from the goods sold, and it will also attract more customers. How about this, a win-win solution?"

“Eh? Uh, well… if I agree, you won’t tell anyone that I’m a Demon King Army officer?”

"Of course, I'm not a demon after all."

Zun Zun's smile was very sincere.

Just like that, under Zun Zun's good words (coercion and inducement), Wiz agreed to the conditions of win-win cooperation.

----

Return to the hotel.

Zun Zun told Huihui and Youyou about this, and the two had no objections. After all, most of the Crimson Demons rely on this to make a living.

but……

"It's 70-30 between me and Wiz."

"Why is it only 70%?"

"Seventy percent of it belongs to someone else... No, it's mine."

Huihui seemed a little dissatisfied with this profit distribution.

After all, Zun Zun has to collect materials, make magic items and take the risk of failure, but in the end he can only get 70%, while Wiz can earn 30% just by putting the items in the store.

The selling method in this world seems to be that the store owner buys the magic props from the maker, and the selling price has nothing to do with the maker. There is currently no win-win cooperation model like Zun Zun... At least, the Red Demon Clan does not have such a method.

"Yes. From this perspective, Miss Wiz seems to make more money." Youyou said after a brief thought.

Hui Hui's eyes were red, and she lowered her voice and said, "Zun Zun, you really are attracted by that big breast..."

"That's not it!"

Zun Zun rubbed her cheek, making Hui Hui whimper, and explained: "Consider it my way of thanking her."

"Thank you? Has your honor ever received a favor from her?"

"...So be it."

The master did not comment.

To be precise, it is not just Zun Zun who has received the favor of Wiz, but all ordinary people in this world have received the favor of Wiz.

The Demon King's army does not actively slaughter ordinary people because the Demon King and Wiz have signed a contract. It is also because Wiz is a cadre of the Demon King's army that remote towns like Axel seem to be too peaceful.

"Since the Venerable has said so."

Huihui pouted and looked reluctant.

...Wait, logically speaking, Wiz is her benefactor, so why is she speaking for him?

I can’t understand.
