National Juggernaut

Chapter 218
The crazy world brings even crazier celebrations. When the last month of the year, the most important year in the East, comes, the entire Shiqian City is completely plunged into frenzy.

On the streets, lanterns were lit one by one, and the celebration of fireworks and firecrackers continued into the next millennium.

Expeditionary soldiers and vehicles slowly entered through various gates of the city wall. The next month was their only holiday and adjustment period of the year.

While completing the physical examination and adjustment, they will also exchange all their resources for real combat power. Big deals and big markets are also part of the celebration.

At the final auction at the end of the year, it is the most likely time to encounter divine materials. On official and various unofficial trading platforms, there are only things you can't think of, and there is nothing you can't buy.

There are even rumors of alien females and cubs in illegal underground auctions in no-name areas and black markets.

Light and darkness go hand in hand, and the changes of the times have brought endless sin and glory. At least, at this moment, human beings can celebrate that they have passed a stable year.

The area of ​​Shiqian City has been opened to the maximum. After this last month, even the residents of the Fourth Ring Road will not have to worry about intermittent space-time shocks and visitors from outside.

People have relaxed smiles on their faces, and the streets are full of small vendors and street performers who make a fortune at the end of the year.

Even the unsmiling city managers in the past have become a lot more negotiable.

As for the vehicles and soldiers leaving the city against common sense, they were just small streams in the river and sea, which did not attract much attention.

Returning warriors, while resting and adjusting, will also take a look at the new spiritual organs and spiritual blade branches in libraries and museums, browse the new research results of the R&D department, and then browse the new artificial spiritual weapons on the market .

The renewal of individuals is necessary, as is the metabolism of the warband.

Many big groups, big forces, and legions will fire a group of people at the end of the year, and then recruit a group of people. The losers of the previous rookie competition received a bunch of recruitment calls and invitations inexplicably, but they did not enter the semi-finals. Those who have also received surprise rewards.

Among them, a lot of remuneration and treatment are even better than those of the previous rematch players, and the weaker ones get better remuneration and treatment.

After all, what the battle group needs to supplement is not only the ace and good seedlings, but also the green leaf backbone, and the latter is even more important. After ten or 20 years of training, it is quite difficult to say who is better than who.

After all, talent, as a market resource, still follows the principle that a rising tide lifts all boats.

When more buyers flooded into the market, the treatment and salaries continued to increase, so many people even began to regret that they sold themselves too cheaply before.

In fact, many losers were just an invitation to completely change their destiny.

"December's surprise" is specifically used to describe this phenomenon, and it's not limited to newcomers.

The veterans who have reorganized their battle groups and jumped freely are the main force in the market.

It's not just the folks who are busy, many lords, city lords, and mayors in the outer ring and outer ring will choose to move back to the city for the New Year.

In addition to purchasing materials, talents, and resources to make up for their needs in the private market, they also have to discuss the resource allocation and budget for the coming year with the mayor, town guard, and council.

Generally speaking, the peripheral camps and towns are responsible for their own profits and losses, and it is unrealistic to rely entirely on the main city.

But there are always some areas that are sacrificed for strategy, some to guard a certain resource point, and some even just to accommodate the overflowing population.

According to gossip, there are also several remote urban areas, which are autonomous regions specially designated for dangerous aliens and sub-humans.

It is basically impossible for these functional urban areas and towns to achieve a balance of income and expenditure. While the main city controls them very closely, they must also bear the consumption of various aspects.

The annual budget, money, resources, and even talents are enough for these officials and lords to roll up their sleeves and have a good duel in the parliament hall. Well, many bigwigs are directly selected arenas.

Visible to the naked eye, the crowds on the streets have increased a lot, and public transportation such as buses is still overcrowded even though there have been many more batches.

The last month of the year is actually the busiest month in the city.

The people at the top have fun at the top, but the migrant workers at the bottom need to relax and watch theatre.

The year-end Juggernaut Tournament with the nature of the "Spring Festival Gala" has also officially started. Countless top fighters have entered the battlefield, eager to show their strength and treatment to the world.

Various organizations have also prepared positions and checks to recruit people. In the past, they recruited "reserve cadres" carefully selected, but now they are full of subsidies for the backbone and grassroots.

Against this background, the last round of the rookie competition received the most attention and even ushered in batch after batch of advertising bids.

reason? "The Opening Match of the Juggernaut Tournament", "Snacks Before Dinner"

But this time, the situation is really a little subtle.

The two who won the rookie crown are both extremely outstanding in personal strength. It is not a big mistake to say that they are first and second in the rookie competition. It's just that the gap between the first and second is too big!
"What, the adjustment of the competition system? You can't choose the venue randomly. You want to cheat me?"

When he received the notice from Chief Long, Zheng Li knew what they wanted to do when he heard him speak.

If I could choose the venue for the finals, I would choose as big as possible and as complicated as the scene.

The goal is very clear, which is to prevent Wang Siqi from seeing himself before he dies.

But now that I heard that the venue is to be designated, it is clear that I am trying to cheat myself.

".You know, the focus of the finals is very high. If there is a one-shot, one-shot, many people will be very disappointed."

"I don't care if they are disappointed or not! Is it good for me as long as I get my quota?!"

Zheng Li is also very realistic, knowing that most individuals can't handle this kind of thing with the authorities, and more often it's about negotiating conditions and compensation.

As long as the negotiation is good, it will not only be extra money, but may even double the champion's income.

"What benefits do you want, don't overdo it. Even if the small and medium venues are scheduled to change, your odds of winning are still higher than the opponent's. This will not change the final result, but just give Wang Siqi more opportunities to show off."

".I heard that there are extra rewards for the champion and runner-up?"

"Well, a non-excessive condition, such as joining a certain department or something. Money and resources are also fine."

"The champion's reward is replaced with a whale eye, or other spiritual materials on it."

Zheng Li opened his mouth without hesitation.

The person on the other side was stunned. Even the head of the first office of the logistics department in charge of logistics had never seen such a lion open his mouth. This is basically a strategic material of the big city, how could it be given to a private person casually.

On the other end of the voice, there were subtle human voices and page turning sounds, as if they were discussing and inquiring.

"Cough, it's gone, the last one was transferred some time ago. It's yours. Don't be too greedy, one piece of time whale material is used and one less, and it is very difficult to maintain the time transfer city. We use it to buy other time every year." The resources of the system materials are all astronomical, and it is impossible to get another one for you."

Zheng Li didn't respond, but this was expected. Otherwise, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs would not have paid so much attention to the whale bone at the time, and took it as its own credit. If you inform the Ministry of Internal Affairs in advance, it will not be possible. that look.

But negotiation, isn't it just a matter of bargaining.

"A weapon that can crush a 30-meter divine defense."

".You might as well ask for the divine eye. No! Where did you know the information? What level do you know?"

Chief Long took a breath and became nervous for a moment. It seemed that he didn't know about the "missing questions".

Zheng Li quickly explained that it was the semi-official channel that got the news, and the other party was relieved, and repeatedly emphasized not to gossip, and it will be top-secret information until January next year.

But he refused twice in a row, which also made Mr. Long hesitate a bit.

He knew that this was a negotiating gimmick on the other side, and he kept raising his psychological bid, but it was not a problem if it went on like this.

"Don't go too far, I know you want to lift my psychological price. The crowns of the past have obtained divine materials, and I can help you choose the one that suits you within my authority."

"The core material of negative emotions is preferably related to the mind and heart."

Zheng Li didn't expect to get time-based materials, they were too rare, and among his spiritual blades, Ah Qiong was the most difficult to break through, its materials were not expensive but rare.

"Hehe, you really have something to hide. Okay, I'll look through it. There should be something suitable. At least it's easier than the time system."

After hanging up the phone, Zheng Li also smiled, which was really a surprise.

Sometimes Qiancheng's huge resource bank is used as the background, and it is not difficult to find suitable rare materials for Ah Qiong.

Suddenly, the phone rang again, and it was the same person.

"...Uh, I just looked at the business contract, and some advertisers have a condition that at least 5 minutes of small-camera advertisements are required, and the price they offer is very high."

Zheng Li understood what he said in a second. It was nothing more than the fact that the game would be delayed for more than 5 minutes. Are you so disliked by Wang Siqi?

"Okay, small things, take people's money. But I have a small problem. Don't worry, small things that don't matter."

Zheng Li didn't discuss any additional conditions, the big head has already been settled, no matter how preoccupied the opposite party will not bleed, it will be annoying.

"Say."

Obviously, Chief Long breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Zheng Li did not raise any more conditions.

"The change of venue selection should not be determined by me alone. I should ask Wang Siqi who is on the favorable side first. Then, has he chosen? Did he choose the runner-up materials?"

This question almost suffocated Chief Long to death.

Can you answer?There will definitely be an obvious gap in grades between the materials for the championship and the runner-up. If Wang Siqi has already selected the materials for the runner-up, it undoubtedly means that he is not sure of defeating Zheng Li at all. Are the cards in his hand not enough?
"Dudududu!"

There was no answer, and the phone hung up.

And listening to the busy tone on the phone, Zheng Li already knew the answer.
