Love and passion, cutting up the wasteland

In the previous chaotic battle with Qin, Lu Meng left behind many weapons in the drilling hole. Except for those that played a larger role, the remaining ones were only consumed in the hand-to-hand battle.

The battle was fierce, and with the strength of the two of them, no one could spare any effort to take care of it.

Some are embedded in the rock wall, and some have fallen into the water. The central community is high and deep, and even salvage will take a long time.

Lu Meng stepped forward.

Stroking the blades that looked like new hair, he smiled, put them away one by one, and finally sheathed the blade.

When he saw the sharp blade leaving a blood-red trail in the air, Zhou Jing's eyes behind Lin Ji were slightly envious, but he just shrugged and said nothing more.

"Is that all there is?" Lu Meng looked back at Lin Ji.

"Only these..." the prosecutor repeated subconsciously, and then sighed, "Of course not."

"Come this way."

She signaled while clearing the way with several members of the Black Claws, leading Lumeng towards the interior of the specialty store.

The lobby of the store front is extremely luxurious, with various counters that look like exhibitions gradually arranged. Goods for sale are placed in transparent glass showcases, which look less like commodities and more like private collections.

The prices are comparable.

Lu Meng only glanced at it, and he had already roughly scanned it, and such a "modern" scene could only be seen in towns with productivity at the level of depressions and lagoons.

Ordinary relay stations are incomparable.

Between the booths, there are people dressed as technology hunters guarding them. They may not be front-line hunters who have actually explored the ruins. They live in the depression lagoon, and their life's duty is to receive guests and maintain order.

There was no need for them to recruit, because almost every booth was packed, and the voices of discussions and bidding could not be heard.

In one of the booths, a leader dressed as a noble and his bodyguard looked particularly impressive.

Regarding financial resources,

Shi Cha is quite confident.

For him, what he experienced in the past few days was not unexciting. Fortunately, Nanding and others who were traveling with him seemed to be quite well-connected, and they even had a relationship with the mechanic.

Although the secret talks that followed had nothing to do with him, the caravan and his entourage were just taken to have good food and accommodation. They could wait until the sun rose, the clouds opened, and the wind and rain subsided. This was undoubtedly the best thing for a serious businessman like Shi Cha.

So, he took the time to send people to clear out the goods, exchange them for coins, and purchase some necessities and specialties that were only available in the depression lagoon.

As for Shi Cha himself, the habit of being a child of aristocratic families has not gone away, so he likes to try his luck in this Taobao market-like specialty store.

A sweep.

A lot of fine little junk has been taken down.

Su Cheng on the side looked at the master's appearance and could only shake his head helplessly - just now, Shi Cha had spotted a treasure that was said to be dug out of the wetlands in the south. However, although he was determined to get it, he thought he had named it. The price can beat the crowd, but every time someone raises a higher price.

Shi Cha's face turned red.

It's obviously already on top.

Although this bidding method is not as formal as a large auction venue, as long as you know who the owner is behind it, even without a deposit, few people would dare to deliberately raise the price and cause the auction to fail.

Now among the crowd here, only Shi Cha was left to bid with that opponent. The rest of the crowd gathered around were not so much interested in the goods as they were just joining in the fun and watching the show.

This time, it was Shi Cha's turn to make a bid.

But just as Shi Cha was constantly evaluating his own psychological bottom line, and the onlookers were expecting and guessing what new price the young nobleman would give, a hand patted his shoulder, and a low voice came to his ear:

"This thing...three times the premium is the limit, and it's not worth it any higher."

Before Shi Cha could react, Su Cheng on the side was so shocked that he pressed the handle of the knife - he actually let people approach the master's house silently without him noticing.

Even if there is a mixed bag of fish and dragons here, it should not be the case.

However, when he saw who it was, he relaxed his hand again and just nodded.

Shi Chaze was still a little angry, and this was undoubtedly questioning his own vision - not to mention the three times the premium, after some hype, the opening price had been at least five or six times higher than the original price.

But the reason why he persisted was because he thought it would still be profitable to get it.

At first glance, it was just an ordinary transaction to pick up goods; at worst, it was a battle for his career. The family motto of his Shi family was to treat every battle as the last, and the mall was his On Shicha's battlefield, if it were not the case, it would be impossible to obtain the third-level charter of the guild so quickly with nothing. It would be a gamble on the dignity of the president...

"You... uh." Shi Cha turned his head and was about to argue, but suddenly stopped, and then a smile instantly appeared on his face, "Oh, it's you, sir. It's been a long time no see."

Lu Meng nodded: "Did you reply to the letter this time?"

"Believe, believe... whatever you say is what you say." Shi Cha greeted Su Cheng with a clear expression, "Let's go, I'm sorry, we don't want this thing anymore."

On one side, Lin Ji leaned against a pillar and watched with his arms crossed. Several people passed through the hall, which was quite blocked. Only the gaps between groups could pass. However, they had no intention of using their privileges to clear the way. After experiencing the martial law and high pressure before, After the blockade, it is time to give these merchants an outlet without any further interruption.

But when Lu Meng walked halfway, he said he saw an acquaintance, so Lin Ji waited for him.

The Black Claws under his command were waiting for the prosecutor, so there was nothing they could do.

During this trip, few people wore the uniforms from the black scratches. After a period of rectification, the vigorous and vigorous actions of the Black Claws have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Although they do not bring fear like the law enforcement team, once they appear, they attract There will still be a lot of looks and comments.

And that doesn't seem to be what their censors want.

Shi Cha's change still caused a commotion among the people watching.

According to their observations, this little nobleman had previously shown a determined attitude, but why did he suddenly give up just because he wanted someone to whisper a few words?

Lu Meng's voice was very low. For ordinary people, only Shi Cha and Su Cheng who were nearby could hear it. However, the host who was responsible for displaying the counter and maintaining order moved his ears and frowned slightly.

He was about to speak, but something came to his mind, so he stepped back and continued to maintain his business smile.

"Wait, you're kidding me, right?" However, the host had no objection. Someone else spoke, but it was the opponent who had been bidding with Shi Cha just now. He was a tall and sturdy man, and he should have been dressed in gorgeous clothes. The leader of a wealthy merchant group was just a little more impatient.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to get into a fight with Shi Cha.

"Brother, what did you say? I gave you something, but you're not happy when you get it?" Shi Cha looked nonchalant on the face, but he was cursing in his heart.

Just kidding, do you know who the big brother next to me is...well, I don't know either, but he is a big brother who can't be messed with.

As the leader of a second-level franchise, it doesn’t matter whether people really see that the product is not good or they have other motives—just listen and that’s it.

However, in the eyes of the strong man, everything seemed a little wrong with this scene.

"You...are not working together!" He recalled the quotation he had just made, and his expression changed.

From his perspective, at the beginning, there were many interested people bidding together, but in the end, everyone else gave up, and only Shi Cha, the opponent, remained at a stalemate with him.

The price has been raised very high.

If it's normal competition, that's it.

He would be convinced by whoever got it.

But the other party gave up so lightly, or because of a person who suddenly appeared... Isn't this obviously a request?

When I saw that the red-faced person was pretending to be too realistic, he couldn't get off the stage without screaming to the end. He was almost fooled, so he invited a supporter to pour cold water on him, and then he got off the donkey... You said you are a master of pretending, but you don't even hire an immortal. An old man with a strong sense of style or a bachelor with grinding glasses don’t even look alike!

Too perfunctory.

The rich and powerful man felt insulted.

"Sir, you can't say this nonsense!" Before Shi Cha and others responded, the host's face changed. Although there must be some unspoken rules in such a venue, what you said has already involved a direct accusation against the home team. .

"Please." Shi Cha rolled his eyes secretly and greeted Lu Meng, "These days..."

However, as soon as the host opened his mouth, it seemed as if the strong man's suspicion was confirmed. His face became even more ugly, but he did not dare to get angry.

After all, this is the territory of technology hunters.

However, he glanced at the backs of Shi Cha and Lu Meng, and secretly made a gesture, wanting to call on his servants to come forward and follow them - it was impossible for the technology hunter to admit it, but the Tona you recruited could not That’s for sure.

Follow the clues.

He had to find evidence no matter what.

"Crack."

A soft sound.

A man held the strong man's shoulder and thrust something into his hand: "This is the collection you bought."

The rich man was interrupted and was about to have a fit.

A sudden chill ran down my back.

"Sir, the rules are the rules. This is your own decision." Zhou Jing behind him could be heard saying slowly, "Pay the money and deliver the goods. Until now, everything... can be treated as if it didn't happen."

In the distance, the members of the Black Claws were just dressed in ordinary clothes, but when they put the pestle on them, a murderous temperament was revealed.

If the merchants' feelings were just like this, the technology hunters hosting the meeting had already recognized them and remained silent.

"It's that one." Zhou Jing secretly pointed at a thin and inconspicuous figure in the crowd, "If you still have the impression, he gave up in the third round to heighten the atmosphere. This is blameless... What, can you trust me?"

"Of course."

After seeing the adjutant's exposed cuffs, the strong man paused for a moment, gave up all his thoughts, and said flatteringly: "You guys helped me find the truck I lost. Do you still remember it, sir?"

"I can't remember, there are too many." Zhou Jing said frankly, patted him on the shoulder and left the crowd.

"Did you see it?" Lin Ji said with interest as he watched Lu Meng bid farewell to Shi Cha after a few words of instructions.

Lu Meng coughed lightly and confessed:

"That's what I used to earn foreign exchange..."

The southern wetlands are too mysterious to the outside world. For a long time in the past, they were often visited by technology hunters and other poachers, such as the former Colons City. It can be said that many ancient ruins have been hollowed out.

Therefore, it is normal for there to be circulation in the market.

But as Lu Meng became the king of the swamp and unified the southern wetlands, this situation had changed, but the past habits could not be changed quickly. Seeing that he was upset, he simply took advantage of the situation and asked the craftsmen to make some gadgets and give them to the Water Tribe, so that They use it to fool those who sneak in.

Think of it as "insider trading."

I didn’t expect that after circulating for a while, it would reach the Depression Lagoon.

“So,” Lin Ji laughed, “or were we cheated?”

“Aren’t you the ones who make the most money?” Lu Meng said calmly: “Opening such a market, you know what to do. Some buyers don’t really care about the authenticity, they just need an endorsement to hype it up.”

After the price was hyped up, it was taken out of the Depression Lagoon and new people took it.

The only benefit is that it doesn’t cheat the poor - those who are not rich or noble can’t participate at all.

This is almost becoming the hard currency in the upper class circle.

“Yeah.” Lin Ji nodded in agreement, and then said, “But there are still some more valuable things in this world - not for sale.”

“Give me your silver card.” After leaving the hall, they had arrived at the inner warehouse of the Depression Lagoon where items were stored. Facing the iron-walled door, Lin Ji reached out to Lu Meng.
