Chapter 695 The building will collapse

Chu Fei returned to the Pharmaceutical Trading Center and found that the building had been demolished, leaving only debris.

The reason why it was demolished instead of destroyed was because there were cordoned off areas around it and someone was directing the work.

The Pharmaceutical Trading Center has temporarily moved to a five-story commercial building next door. It has been re-listed but is currently under renovation.

As for the backyard of the pharmaceutical trading center, it is still the same as before. Many laboratories and secret rooms are either underground or in the backyard, so the losses are not great.

The front building mainly houses the transaction window, general documents, meeting rooms, drug identification, and warehouses for storing medicinal materials or drugs used for transactions.

These things are all floating wealth.

But when Chu Fei came to the backyard and saw Ren Qingyun, he received bad news: there were only five of the original eight senior executives left in the Pharmaceutical Trading Center.

The Tianlong people suddenly launched an attack with a very clear purpose - they were targeting the alchemists in the medicine trading center, especially the senior alchemists.

Ren Qingyun's face was very ugly, "This time, the Tianlong people had a very clear goal. They left a large amount of expensive high-level medicine untouched and just killed people directly.

Now, the vitality that the Pharmaceutical Trading Center had finally recovered has been reduced to its original state.

Especially the three who were killed, they were all masters who could refine 10.0 potions. Now the potion trading center..."

Ren Qingyun looked somewhat relieved. He had worked so hard to get the pharmaceutical trading center back on track, and he didn't want to suffer such a heavy blow again.

This was not just a matter of three people being killed, but the other four, apart from Ren Qingyun, were also uneasy. In fact, Ren Qingyun was also uneasy.

If these four left, Chu Fei and Ren Qingyun would be the only ones left in the Pharmaceutical Trading Center, and the result would be even more difficult.

Chu Fei thought for a moment and said, "Things have come to this. I suspect that this time there are more than just the Tianlong people. It can even be said that the Tianlong people are just a fig leaf on the surface.

I'm afraid that the top leaders of Thunder City are involved in this. The rise of the pharmaceutical trading center has already affected the interests of some people.

In this case, I think it would be better to organize the methods of refining potions below 10.0 and make them available for public sale in the form of videos, documents, and pictures!

They just want to make money, so we directly dug up the low-level medicinal materials and medicine market!

As for advanced potions, we will go the custom route in the future, and the few people left behind will be enough."

At this point, Chu Fei couldn't help but sigh, "Sometimes, it's time to retreat. Taking a step back will open up a new world. At least it's temporary and you can get a chance to breathe."

Ren Qingyun nodded slightly, "Alright, from now on, the Medicine Trading Center will be unlisted and returned to the Medicine Research Center. The identification and processing methods of low-level medicinal materials and the methods of refining low-level medicines will all be sold."

Then, Ren Qingyun couldn't help but curse: "Fuck, I don't want to play anymore, I'm going to flip the table! If you want to make money, you have to pay me!"

For a long time, the technology of refining medicine and the processing methods of medicinal materials have been almost top-secret information. Not to mention ordinary people, even 10.0 practitioners have a hard time getting access to these things.

Now, the director and deputy director of the Pharmaceutical Trading Center...um...the Pharmaceutical Research Center have decided to make it public.

Don’t anger someone who has a trump card, really, he can overturn the table!

Ren Qingyun had already decided to overturn the table, but Chu Fei was ready to smash it.

Chu Fei had scanned all the people who participated in the battle after Wang Yujing's death. After that, he would naturally visit each of their homes to let them experience what madness meant.

Deep down, Chu Fei has a crazy nature. Otherwise, he wouldn't have achieved what he has now.

But before revenge, there is one more important thing - weapons.

The previous red copper sword was borrowed by Liu Jinhui. If Chu Fei wanted to have a stronger fighting power, he had to forge a new sword.

Speaking of which, after Chu Fei obtained the black iron, he wanted to rebuild it, but there were too many things to do, and the red copper sword he already had was enough.

Now, we have to build it.

But if you want to create a new magic sword, you need equipment assistance.

The equipment at the Lan family can be used, and Chu Fei is familiar with it, but Chu Fei feels ashamed to go to the Lan family.

So, let’s look for other solutions first, and then try again if it doesn’t work.

No, I am the deputy city lord!
Chu Fei's mind turned a corner and he finally remembered his new identity.

With an idea in mind, Chu Fei discussed the next plan with Ren Qingyun.

Ren Qingyun said in a cold tone, "First of all, we can be sure that this incident is definitely not just about the Tianlong people, there must be a traitor.

Since the top leaders of Thunder Land City do not want this medicine trading center that will benefit the vast majority of practitioners to open, then we will just follow the trend.

Secondly, the price of advanced potions above 10.0 will increase by more than 50%. The reasons are all ready-made, a large number of potions and medicinal materials have been destroyed, and there is a shortage of pharmacists. "

Chu Fei nodded.

Making all the information about low-level potions public seems to be a real project that benefits the people, and it can also be announced to the public that it is the work of Chu Fei, the deputy city lord. In fact, it is indeed the work of Chu Fei.

This can be regarded as fulfilling Chu Fei's promise.

As for the price increase of advanced medicine, that was not within Chu Fei's promise. And even if someone had complaints, this chaos could shut everyone up.

During the discussion, someone came in and said that the funeral of the deceased was ready.

There aren’t so many things to pay attention to in the end times, and funerals are relatively simple, consisting mainly of friends and family gathering together for a meal.

But there is also one part of the funeral that is extremely troublesome, and that is the handling of the master's body.

Not only is the flesh and blood of alien species very nourishing, the flesh and blood of masters is even more effective than that of alien species. Digging up the corpses of masters to make medicine is a very common thing, but no one dares to make it public.

To avoid this situation, the bodies of all masters will be cremated.

After the mourning, cremation was carried out that evening.

Chu Fei did not participate in the cremation process as it was not convenient for him to participate.

At night, Chu Fei came to the city lord's office and found that not only Wang Yujing was dead, but also two clerks were dead, all from the deputy city lord's office.

There were still a few people investigating the scene. After seeing Chu Fei, someone stepped forward and said, "City Lord Chu, based on our current investigation and consultation with the remaining staff in the office,
The enemy entered the office in the name of consultation, but Miss Wang was more alert, and she had heard fighting and explosions outside, so she wanted to go out and take a look.

This also inadvertently escaped the enemy's ambush.

The enemy then gave chase.”

Chu Fei nodded silently, "Got it. Thank you for your hard work. Let me buy you a drink, brothers."

As he spoke, Chu Fei had already taken out three bottles of potions, three bottles of psychic potions.

The reference price of the psychic potion is 1.5 yuan; nowadays, you may not even be able to buy it for 15 yuan. The conservative price of three bottles of potion is yuan.

The team leader didn't dare to answer it.

Chu Fei casually stuffed it into the other person's hand, "Why, do you want something more expensive?"

The team leader quickly thanked him and left with the potion.

Then Chu Fei heard the excited chattering sounds.

Although this is the City Lord's Mansion, most of the people doing odd jobs are semi-awakened people. These semi-awakened people actually have a very hard life.

In a chaotic environment, it is difficult for ordinary people to survive, even if they work in the City Lord's Mansion.

As for whether these guys working in the City Lord's Mansion would bully ordinary people, Chu Fei didn't care. I myself was being plotted against by the Lord of Thunder, and Wang Yujing beside me was dead, so who cared about me?

After the investigators left, Chu Fei looked at the people in the office who were like frightened birds, took a deep breath, and slowly spoke: "Everyone, I don't think I need to say more about what happened during the day.

What I am saying is that the impact of this incident has just begun.

This raid caused the total decline of the pharmaceutical trading center, and my previous plan to popularize and reduce the prices of pharmaceuticals could now be declared bankrupt.

Without the support of potions, we are no match for the Celestial Dragons.

What's more, the shadow of a traitor can be clearly seen in this incident.

With internal and external troubles, I'm afraid that Qingshi City won't be able to hold out for much longer. Everyone, go back immediately, pack up and leave here. The sooner the better. "

The rest of the office staff were completely stunned. No one expected that Chu Fei, the deputy city lord, would not comfort everyone, but instead let everyone run away quickly. It really was... He was one of them.

In fact, the clerks sent by the Jinhua Chamber of Commerce, the Self-Help Association, the Lan Family, and the Wei Family are all real core personnel. These people certainly know about keeping secrets and there is no need for Chu Fei to say anything.

But before these people left, Chu Fei asked everyone to help post a bounty and buy some equipment that could be used to make magic swords.

These require chip manufacturing equipment, circuit board equipment, high-precision laser equipment, precision electromagnetic melting furnaces, microscopic detection equipment, and so on.

Chu Fei is quite experienced in making magic weapons.

A bounty was issued in the name of the deputy city lord, and the purpose of the bounty was said to be to research potions, and even to design a chip and automation technology for refining potions to make up for the shortage of alchemists.

The purpose of this reward sounds very much like that. Of course, there are still doubts, but when we see the reward amount, we feel relieved.

As long as the money is enough, you can do whatever you want.

Chu Fei gave out a large number of potions with a value of 10.0 or above, including the Scorching Sun Potion, Berserker Potion, Rage Potion, Primary Nourishment Potion, etc., as well as the recently popular Resurrection Potion.

Chu Fei said that he actually had 20 bottles of resurrection potion in stock, stored at the bottom of the box.

It is normal for alchemists to keep a few bottles of potions at the bottom of their cabinets.

The reward was issued, but in the early hours of the morning, the equipment Chu Fei needed was delivered to the Pharmaceutical Trading Center...now it should be called the Pharmaceutical Research Center.

The sign for the Pharmaceutical Trading Center has been taken down, and now only the sign for the Pharmaceutical Research Center is left.

Even the rented building was given up.

Ren Qingyun and the rest of the people in the Pharmaceutical Research Center had a clear attitude - we're done with this pharmaceutical trading thing.

Under such circumstances, Chu Fei came to the secret room of the Pharmaceutical Research Center and began to install and debug equipment.

As for the problem of equipment power consumption, it is also easy to solve. The Pharmaceutical Research Center originally had its own power system, and now that the building has collapsed, there is still plenty of power.

Time quietly came to the early morning, and Qingshi City was much quieter at this time. Although many families had died, everyone had become accustomed to the environment of the end of the world.

However, in this deep silence, there were many places with bright lights on. The City Lord's Mansion, several large families, business groups, etc. were all busy.

Especially the Jinhua Business Group, the Self-Help Association, the Lan Family, the Wei Family, and the Huang Family, they are not only busy, they are all packing up.

Wei Shuheng looked at Wei Fanghua and Wei Longyu and sighed, "If Chu Fei had someone bring it back, you two would have known about it. What I want to say is that I agree with Chu Fei's opinion. In order to stick together, I even specially notified the Huang family.

I can't leave, but you can. Take the best troops at home and evacuate as soon as possible."

Wei Fanghua spoke first: "Dad, where are we retreating to? Cangyun City?"

Wei Shuheng shook his head slightly: "No, it has to be Yumen City at least! After you retreat, start with low-level potions. Take this memory card.

This is the information Chu Fei entrusted the Pharmaceutical Trading Center to send. I took a look and found that it contains thousands of pharmaceuticals and corresponding medicinal materials. The value is inestimable. "

A fingernail-sized memory card was placed in Wei Fanghua's hand. Wei Shuheng glanced at Wei Longhua and continued, "Longhua, listen to your younger sister more in the future.

Your mind is not as active as it was in youth, and you are likely to suffer losses in Yumen City."

Wei Longhua nodded, but couldn't help but ask, "Dad, are we just leaving empty-handed?"

Wei Shuheng shook his head slightly: "If you save the land but lose the people, you will lose both the land and the people. Why don't you understand this principle? With the things, how far can you go? How fast can you go?"

Wei Longhua wanted to say something, but Wei Fanghua spoke up, "Brother, we are escaping this time, not migrating. Only if we leave first, can Dad and the elders leave without worries.

As for property and other things, we should just take enough for our daily needs."

"Running for your life?" Wei Longhua muttered, his face looking a little grim. "How did things develop to this point?"

Wei Fanghua didn't say anything, but couldn't help but look in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion.

Afterwards, the core members of the Wei family quietly evacuated. At the same time, the Lan family, the Jinhua business group, the Huang family, etc. also evacuated. This evacuation was considered a group warming up.

The self-help association played a huge role in the entire retreat process.

Now the Self-Help Association has grown into the first civilian organization, and many soldiers and fighters have joined the Self-Help Association. In addition, the Self-Help Association has been expanding purposefully, so that one-third of the defense of Qingshi City has been "influenced" by the Self-Help Association.

The concept of the Self-Help Association has been continuously modified and improved, and is very suitable for people above the semi-awakened level, especially independent cultivators. These people have struggled, have knowledge, and have vision, and they know very well that "self-help" is the only way out. Now, many people have united under the banner of the Self-Help Association, and by the way, they have contributed their spiritual power, extremely pure spiritual power, to Chu Fei.

Now, with the help of the Self-Help Association, the group successfully left Qingshi City and then disappeared into the night.

It was not until everyone had left fifty kilometers that Wei Shuheng and Huang Zhiwei, the two 12.0 family heads, received the text message. The two looked at each other, and then Wei Shuheng said to Zheng Chengan and Cheng Buyun: "It's late at night, let's stop here for today. We can talk about it tomorrow if there is anything else."

Zheng Chengan nodded. He had been getting impatient for a long time, but he had to patiently argue with Wei Shuheng.

But as soon as Wei Shuheng and Huang Zhiwei left, someone delivered intelligence.

After reading the news, Zheng Chengan slapped the table and broke it: "Assholes! The core young people of the Wei family, the Huang family and so on are gone, and they took away 2,000 troops! I thought these two assholes came to chat in the middle of the night!"
