Chapter 40: Time for split billing!

Ryan chuckled upon hearing that, "Low-grade."

"Ah?" Ji You felt quite disappointed upon hearing this, the price difference between low-grade, middle-grade, and high-grade was huge, "Only low-grade?"

Standing aside, Xie Lingzhi rolled her eyes and said with a sneer, "Do you think high-grade ones are as common as trash all over the place? For our Planet 101 to produce Butterfly Honey is already incredible enough!"

"That’s true."

"2 to 3 kilograms! That’s at least a couple of million credit points! We are really striking it rich!"

"Hahaha..." Ji You laughed heartily at the thought of such a sum of money.

"Let’s divide the goods when we get home." After a moment of contemplation, Ryan said, "Let’s head back first."

"Alright."

Given the abundant dangers in the wild, nobody said much; they packed up and promptly set off to leave.

Once reaching the boundary of the protective barrier, everyone sold the Iron Pear Wood they had gathered and quickly returned to the residential area. During this haul, everyone kept the Iron Pear Wood they gathered themselves; only Butterfly Honey and the Banded Butterfly Queen needed to be shared.

After unanimous discussion, Xie Chuanqiong spoke, "Thanks to You for this significant yield, otherwise the outcome for us would be uncertain. Therefore, You should take 50%, and the rest of us will divide the remainder evenly."

"That much?"

"I shouldn’t take so much, it was a collective effort. Give me 40%." Ji You declined.

On this matter, Lea was rather adamant, "You, just take it. Without you, we might all have died, and wouldn’t be able to sit here and share the profits."

Xie Chuanqiong said, "You, 50% is what you deserve."

Xie Lingzhi pouted and murmured, "Idiot!"

Seeing everyone insist so unanimously, Ji You scratched his head and said somewhat embarrassingly, "Then—I’ll take it." 50%? How much is that, exactly?

If it sold for 20,000, she would take 10,000; if it sold for 30,000, she would get 15,000...

A fortune!

Dizzy.

Dizzy.

Dizzy.

Ji You was nearly overwhelmed with joy.

After the Banded Butterfly Queen was divided, it was time to divide the Butterfly Honey.

Xie Chuanqiong said, "We got the Butterfly Honey thanks to You. You will take 40%, Ryan will take 30%, and the remaining 30% will be divided among the rest of us. Nobody has any objections, right?"

Nobody objected; getting the Butterfly Honey was a pleasant surprise, and Ji You was the most deserving, followed by Ryan. Without Ryan, they couldn’t have taken the Butterfly Honey, so everyone agreed to this division plan.

Xie Chuanqiong stated, "In that case, let’s divide it this way."

"Wait!" Ji You raised her hand and said with a smile, "I have an objection!"

Xie Chuanqiong: "Hmm? You, what do you..."

He was already aware of what Ji You was about to say.

Laughing cheerfully, Ji You said, "I’ll just take 30%, and the remaining 40%, you guys divide it!"

Everyone was about to decline when Ji You rushed to say, "Don’t refuse! This harvest was achieved only with everyone’s joint efforts, and it couldn’t have been done without any one of you. That settles it."

Ji You was such a person by nature, clear about gratitude and grudges! Whoever was kind to her, she would reciprocate, and anyone who dared to trouble her, she would definitely pay them back, even if she couldn’t do so immediately, she would bide her time to unleash a big move!

The Xie Family, Lea’s family, were all her own people, all kind to her, so Ji You was willing to share her gains with them.

After Ji You insisted repeatedly, everyone stopped refusing after trying to persuade her.

Because Butterfly Honey was so precious, normally no one would even dare to dream about it, let alone use it to increase their own level. Once the accounts were settled, Grandma Jenny smiled and said, "You kids, don’t think of selling all the Butterfly Honey; save some for your own use."

Xie Chuanqiong said sternly, "Grandma Jenny, rest assured, Xie Lingzhi and I will keep 200 grams for our advancement."

Grandma Jenny smiled and said, "That’s good. You, keep some for yourself too, at least 300 grams, so that both your spiritual power and Physical Strength can go up one level."

Ji You originally planned to sell all of it, but upon hearing Grandma Jenny’s words, she thought it made sense too. Since she had a rare commodity that could elevate her level, she should certainly enhance her own strength. Being strong was the only way to protect herself, so she hastily said, "I know, I’ll keep 400 grams." The Butterfly Honey they had just weighed totaled 2800 grams, and Ji You could take 840 grams. By selling 400, she would still have over 400 grams left.

Xie Chuanqiong said, "Ryan, we’ll leave the selling part to you, is that okay?"

Ryan nodded: "Sure."

These High-level materials, if directly listed on the Star Network, could probably only fetch the market price, but since Ryan had his channels, he might be able to get a higher price.

After thinking briefly, Ryan continued, "It should sell quickly, I’ll transfer the credits to you when it’s done."

Ryan’s character was well known, so no one worried that he would embezzle the money after selling it.

In fact, for Ryan, neither the Banded Butterfly Queen nor the Butterfly Honey were particularly rare. He had seen too many rare treasures; these items were merely ordinary for him—Ryan didn’t actually care about the share of money that he would get; even if everyone refused to share with him, he wouldn’t ask for it proactively.

After deciding, no one said much else. Ji You set aside 400 grams of her Butterfly Honey and asked Ryan to sell it on her behalf.

Low-grade Butterfly Honey like this could be sold for 100,000 credit points per 100 grams, so in one fell swoop, she would have a windfall of 400,000!

400,000, ah!

It was something she couldn’t even have dreamed of before.

Not just Ji You, everyone’s faces were bursting with joy, even someone as proud as Xie Lingzhi and as steady as Xie Chuanqiong had an involuntary hint of glee on their faces thinking about the rewards from this trip.

When Ji You returned home, her stomach was so hungry it felt like her chest was sticking to her back. She quickly took out a nutrient solution, thinking of eating one, but as she was about to tear open the packaging, Ji You furrowed her brows, realizing she was already a little rich girl with several hundred thousand! How could she still stomach a low-level nutrition?

No way!

Absolutely not!

How could a little rich girl eat low-level nutrition?

That totally didn’t fit her new status.

Ji You tossed the nutrient solution aside, touching the remaining Butterfly Honey in her hand, and chuckled to herself, "Today, I’m going to indulge! Buy ten or eight jins of natural food!"

Speaking of which, how much was that huge apple from Beikena Mountain? 810 credit points! Now that she had money, she would buy 10 at once!

Right!

If not buying, then buy 10 at once.

The suddenly wealthy Ji You was over the moon, almost too happy to find her bearings, but—she didn’t care too much. Buying 10 big apples would only cost her 8,100, still within her budget.

True to her word, Ji You put down the Crystal Bottle containing the Butterfly Honey, about to get on the Star Network, when out of the corner of her eye, her pupils suddenly shrank—
