Reborn in the end of the world, I scavenged in the empty city and bought for free
Chapter 394: Intercepting Business
Gu Tongwan prefers people like Sister Pan who are straightforward, because it is easier to do business with such people.
Although it is understandable that the man wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to earn more middle price due to the weather, the price was really too high. According to the price difference of 30 points per kilogram, the man could earn at least three to four thousand yuan in this trip. Sister Pan was looking at the long-term cooperation in the future. She could make a few thousand yuan in this trip and lay the foundation for trust and a good cooperative relationship for future business. Since Gu Tongwan was able to produce hundreds of kilograms of high-quality goods this time, he might be able to produce better things in the future.
Sister Pan gave a straightforward price, so Gu Tongwan did not hesitate. To be honest, the price was similar to what she had expected, or even a little higher, so her impression of Sister Pan improved a lot.
"Okay, let's do it at the price you offer."
Gu Tongwan has already taken out his brand-name card and is ready to trade at any time.
The man got anxious as soon as he saw it, and quickly said to Sister Pan: "Sister Pan, you are intercepting me halfway, there is no such thing as you."
"What do you mean by intercepting? I took over because the deal between you and the boss fell through. Besides, you were dishonest in your business, so you can't blame me. Besides, you don't only have the boss's order in your hands now. It's not like you came out for nothing tonight."
Sister Pan has a straightforward personality and is good at speaking. She quickly took the brand-name card from Gu Tongwan's hand. She turned around and took a portable card swiping machine behind her. Currently, this type of card swiping machine cannot see the real-time points amount and personal information. If you want to track every transaction information, only law enforcement agencies have the right to go to the relevant window of the transaction center to inquire about the consumption records of personal brand-name cards, so Gu Tongwan is not worried that his identity will be leaked here.
Sister Pan felt the man's dissatisfied gaze, so she crossed her arms and said unhappily, "I'm telling you, just think of it as me, Pan Ruling, stealing your order. If you don't like it, come to me if you have any problems in the future. Don't make things difficult for the young boss. If I find out what you're doing behind the scenes, don't blame me for turning my back on you later."
When the man heard the woman say this, his originally somewhat resentful mood suddenly became low, and his high arrogance dissipated a lot. He even said aggrievedly: "How dare I mess with you, Sister Pan? Brother Tian will skin me alive. This time I have to blame myself for my greed. I shot myself in the foot, so I don't blame anyone. I was just blinded by the benefits in front of me. Oh, forget it, but... Sister Pan, you have to give me some tomatoes, apples, and cabbages later. My family hasn't eaten such fresh fruits and vegetables for a long time."
Judging from the man’s attitude and what he said, it is estimated that this woman named Sister Pan has some background in their organization, otherwise the man would not be willing to speak in a humble manner after his business was taken away.
The points transaction was completed quickly, and this time the income was 4760, and all four foam boxes were given to the woman.
The woman saw that the ice used to maintain the temperature was about to melt into water, so she immediately used her special ability. In about a few minutes, the four foam boxes were filled with ice again, and even the water inside was frozen, but the vegetables and fruits were not damaged at all.
After the transaction was completed, Gu Tongwan was going to go shopping in the black market with Yan Fan, so he said to Yan Fan: "The reward tonight is about 200 points. If you like anything in the black market, you can tell me and I can buy it for you from my side, but a portion of the food agreed upon before will be deducted accordingly."
Yan Fan didn't say anything, but paused for a moment, and then said after a long while: "Don't trust me too much or sympathize with me. I'm not as pitiful as you think."
"I'm just making a deal with you, or you can think of it as me investing in you..."
Gu Tongwan touched his unshaven beard. The touch was quite magical. He even became addicted to it.
Suddenly he realized that Yan Fan behind him did not keep up with his pace, so he looked back in confusion.
Then she saw that his entire face was almost buried under the mask, with only a pair of sparkling eyes showing. She had seen those eyes countless times, and she only remembered them today after having a dream. That kind of stubborn and resolute look. In her previous life, when he was standing in the International Hunter Association and giving an official speech on behalf of China, he had the same look in his eyes, as seen in a newspaper he picked up in a newspaper in his previous life.
The title at that time was [China's youngest S-level ice-type mutant]. The mutant who could transform all the surrounding water into ice in a few seconds and used [Ice Storm] during the fourth large-scale beast tide was Yan Fan, who was only 20 years old at the time.
I didn't expect that Yan Fan, who was not famous three years ago, would one day become a thief and break into my own home.
There is very little information about Yan Fan mentioned in the newspaper of the previous life. The only thing we know is that this S-level ice-type mutant has been wandering since the end of the world. He has no family or friends and has been a fugitive. He was finally recruited by the president of the Hunter Association and joined his guild, where he gradually started a new life.
She woke up in shock from such a dream in the afternoon. She said that she had an inexplicable affection for Yan Fan when she first saw him. It was not only because Yan Fan broke the only steamed bun in his arms for the homeless old man, but perhaps more because of a subtle sense of trust that she had developed after seeing the "hero" in the newspaper in her previous life.
She knew very little about Yan Fan, but if they were really the same person, Yan Fan should be meeting the president of the Hunter Association soon, and then his abilities would be upgraded step by step under the president's training and cultivation.
Could it be that the butterfly effect caused Yan Fan and me to meet in this life?
If this is true, can Yan Fan still become an S-level psychic from a D-level in just three years?
There are too many questions in his mind right now. Gu Tongwan hates that his brain is not a sponge that can absorb all the information.
But at least Yan Fan should not be a bad person. After all, Yan Fan, who became a great hero after the apocalypse, took out half of his monthly income to support the children who lost their parents and became orphans in the late apocalypse.
Yan Fan just snorted in a muffled voice: "What can I trade with you? I know my own worth."
Gu Tongwan smiled, "Then you underestimate yourself. If you have no use value, would I give you the green light again and again? Young man, remember that personal value can be created. Don't easily deny yourself because of some small setbacks."
Yan Fan curled his fingers slightly and said nothing. When he raised his head, he saw that the figure in front of him, which should have been slender and thin, was infinitely elongated under the spotlight above his head. Those shadows seemed to penetrate into his heart and plant a seed deeply inside.
He took a deep breath of the heavy air and finally caught up with her.
9:05 p.m.
The black market has been completely opened to ordinary tourists. It has been closed for about a month and a half. Tonight, it can be said that it is crowded. In less than ten minutes since Yan Fan came out of the tent, the flow of people here has almost doubled.
The black market, which is more than 100 meters long, is filled with various small stalls on both sides. Those with better conditions even have their own small generators and electric fans, which allow them to sell goods while blowing cool air to dissipate heat.
The road in the middle is about six meters wide, but with the influx of people, it is inevitable that people will have physical contact with others when walking.
The weather was already hot enough, and with so many people walking in the venue at the same time, the heat emitted from their bodies made the temperature rise a lot instantly.
I couldn't help but glance at my electronic watch. The watch had a built-in thermometer and the temperature on it was 48 degrees, which was even one degree higher than when I first arrived.
Isn't it said that there is an ice-type mutant every fifty meters? Could it be that these people are just slacking off?
If I had known, I would have worn a thermostatic [tight suit] when I came out. Now I feel like I have been provoked like an old dog.
In addition, there is a barbecue stall at least twenty meters away. The barbecued meat should have been bought and placed in the freezer before the sale restriction. In order to cover up the odor, a lot of spices were even put into the meat this time, but these spices did not look like cumin or pepper, but instead had a strange fragrance.
Seeing Gu Tongwan frowning at the barbecue area and even taking several steps back with a look of disgust, Yan Fan immediately understood something and said, "It's a seasoning called Masala, which was shipped back from the East Country. The East Country has kept a large batch of spices, but they are all mixed. The cumin and other spices were all lost during the flood period there. Now all that's left is this seasoning, but the price is not cheap. It seems to be sold for 500 to 600 points per kilogram."
"Why does this thing called Marsala smell sour?" Gu Tongwan couldn't help but complain, but he still went up to ask about the price. He was really shocked when he asked that an ordinary mixed meat skewer (note: a mixture of mutant rat meat and mutant chicken scraps) was actually sold for twenty points a skewer. There were only five pieces of meat on the skewer, but there were still quite a few people buying it.
High-temperature potatoes cost five points a string, mutant rat meat costs fifteen points a string, mutant beef and pork cost twenty-five points each, and wilted rapeseed costs fifteen points a string.
Maybe it was because I hadn’t tasted meat or spices for a long time. There were more than a dozen barbecue stalls in total, and there were at least three or four people gathered in front of each stall.
I guess everyone thinks that the black market rarely opens, and they come here to buy things or have fun, so everyone is willing to spend money. In addition, they haven't eaten meat for a while. At present, the meat processing plant in the base is no longer selling to the outside world, and meat is not available at the supply and marketing cooperative. If you are really greedy, you can drive to the big forest in the north to hunt. Maybe you can catch a mutant mountain jumper or field mouse. In the city, it is rare to see a mutant mouse. It is so hot that they hide in the ventilated and cool sewers. They can survive for a long time by relying on sewage and garbage.
Walking forward, there is a beverage stall on the other side, which sells much more varieties than the common beverage shops in the base. There are the more common "sour pear drinks" and "red plum juice", as well as the "green jujube juice" and "sour apple juice" that are rarely seen in the base. There is even a yellow drink that tastes between mango and pineapple, and there is at least one ice-type psychic or an electric-type psychic at each beverage stall.
It's easy to understand an ice-type mutant. After making the juice, he will directly lower the temperature of the whole cup of juice to a frozen and delicious taste. If it's an electric-type mutant, he will directly supply power to the refrigerator continuously for cooling.
If the supernatural power is only used in a small range, basically a D-level supernatural user can do it. In other words, if Yan Fan is willing, it should be easy to find a job in the black market.
Noticing Gu Tongwan's gaze, Yan Fan shook his head and said, "I don't like doing this kind of work. It will waste my special abilities and it is meaningless."
Okay, I didn’t expect this kid to be so stubborn.
The weather was so hot that Gu Tongwan walked to the beverage area and suddenly felt the temperature drop a lot. He looked up and found that an ice-type mutant was catalyzing the ice cubes needed into the refrigerator.
But probably because the drinks at this stall are more expensive than those at other stalls, its business is not as good as others.
"Boss, it's the same [Willow Mango Juice], but others only charge 15 points for a cup, but you sell it for 25. Isn't that too outrageous?" A young man nearby took a look at the price and was immediately discouraged by it, but he couldn't help but smack his lips and complain before leaving.
The boss was a young woman in her twenties. She smiled as she made juice and answered, "You get what you pay for. I can guarantee that the ingredients I use are absolutely good. At least there's no rotten fruit. You can buy some and taste them yourself and you'll know. If I'm trying to rip you off, I won't charge you a penny."
Gu Tongwan glanced at the fruits in the woman's freezer. Although they were all shriveled, it could be seen that there was no blackening or damage on the surface. It should be that the hot weather had caused some of the heat to evaporate naturally.
The man raised his eyebrows and smiled playfully, "Okay, just give me a glass of [Willow Mango Juice], swipe the card first, and I'll come get it later."
After handing over the card and swiping 25 points, the man turned and went to the stall opposite, and it seemed that he actually ordered a cup of [Willow Mango Juice] opposite.
Gu Tongwan now has both mangoes and oranges in her space, and she is quite curious about what this juice with two mixed flavors tastes like.
"Yan Fan, are you thirsty?"
Yan Fan shook his head silently.
Gu Tongwan knew what he was worried about, so he changed his words, "Well, I'm thirsty, go buy me a cup of [willow juice] across the street." He handed the card to Yan Fan and waved his hand to urge Yan Fan to come over.
After Yan Fan left, Gu Tongwan narrowed his eyes and said to the boss, "Boss, I want a cup of [Liu Mang Juice] with 30% sugar."
