Apocalyptic Spirit Master

Chapter 9 Trading
Central area of ​​the settlement.

A small square of nearly [-] square meters stands next to a five-story building.

This is the martial arts arena and office center of the settlement management committee.

The sky had already dimmed, and a high-power diesel generator was "booming" to provide the electricity needed for the lighting of the entire building. A figure kept coming in and out of the office center, each dealing with the affairs of the day.In the small square, a team of members of the security team was neatly assembled and lined up under the leadership of a small team leader.

"drop--"

A small truck blew its horn and drove all the way to the downstairs of the office center. Before the car stopped, a few strong men jumped out of the car and stood firmly on the ground.Luo Hou looked intently, and saw that half of the truck was half-stacked, and a bloody smell could be smelled clearly from far away.

This pickup truck is one of the only three intact vehicles in the settlement and belongs to the hunting team.

At this moment, the hunting team was returning from hunting, and it seemed that they had gained a lot.

Several men who jumped out of the car first opened the rear compartment door and began to carry the things on the car.

"hiss……"

The surrounding crowd couldn't help but gasped, and they saw half of the car's corpses of monsters piled up on top of the truck!As the members of the hunting team moved down the carriage one by one, Luo Hou discovered that the corpses of these monsters were all first-order monsters with sharp horns, and there were nearly twenty of them in total.The sharp-horned goat is less than one meter tall and weighs about seventy to eighty kilograms. It is a relatively docile species among monsters. It generally does not actively attack humans, but it has fast speed and sharp double horns. Not inferior to a first-order evolutionary.

The sharp-horned goat itself produces a gray crystal, and a sheepskin with high integrity is basically worth a gray crystal. Moreover, the meat of the sharp-horned goat is fresh and tender, and is deeply loved by survivors. It can also be sold for a half gray crystal .All together, the value of one sharp-horned goat is about three and a half gray crystals, and twenty is seventy gray crystals!

There are a total of five members of the hunting team who went out this time. Excluding the part of the Shanghai Jiaotong Management Committee, each person can get at least ten gray crystals!

Seeing the harvest of the hunting team, the eyes of the surrounding crowd were full of envy.In the new world, only when one's own strength is strong can one survive better, and the members of these hunting teams are all second-order evolutionaries.

After standing for a while, Luo Hou carried his snakeskin bag on his back, bypassed the crowd of onlookers, walked along a stone road beside the square, and walked towards an antique courtyard with two entrances.

"Stop, who! What are you doing!"

As soon as he approached the gate of the courtyard, the first-order evolutionary guards standing beside the two stone lions immediately blocked Luo Hou's way.

Seeing the two guards looking at him vigilantly, Luo Hou smiled friendly, showing two rows of beige teeth:

"Please inform me, I have something to do with Chairman Cheng."

The two first-order evolutionists glanced at Luo Hou suspiciously. Seeing that he was dressed in shabby clothes, with a snakeskin bag on his back, and looked destitute and poor, he couldn't help showing a look of contempt. One of them asked suspiciously. :

"If you have something to tell us, if it is important, we will notify the president."

Seeing the disbelief on the faces of these two people, Luo Hou touched his nose, put the snakeskin bag on the ground, took out cigarettes and scattered two of them, and said: "I really have something to do with the president, please accommodate me. Bar."

The two took Luohou's cigarettes, took a look at them, and were surprised to find that it was Huang Fu who could sell for a pack of twenty white crystals, and two cigarettes equaled two white crystals!He stuffed it into the bag calmly, and the person who spoke before said blankly, "Then you wait, if the president doesn't want to see you, there is nothing you can do", then turned around and walked into the yard.

After about five or six minutes, the guard came out from the courtyard, nodded to Luo Hou, and said:
"Come with me, the president promises to see you."

Luo Hou followed the guard, passed through a small courtyard planted with many flowers and plants, and came to a brightly lit hall.The guard stopped going forward when he got here, turned around and said, "The president is waiting for you inside", then turned around and walked out.

Going up a few steps paved with bluestone slabs is the gate of the hall.

In the hall, a tall, middle-aged man was leaning on a grand master's chair, watching a young and graceful woman beside him pour tea into two teacups on the table.Seeing Luo Hou walking up the steps and standing at the door, he didn't get up, but just beckoned with his right hand, and said calmly: "Come, sit down."

This middle-aged man is naturally the most powerful person in the entire settlement, Cheng Qiyi, the chairman of the governance committee.

Luo Hou nodded, carrying the snakeskin bag, walked straight to the opposite of Cheng Qiyi, bowed slightly, and then sat on the chair.

Under close observation, Luo Hou saw that Cheng Qiyi had a face with Chinese characters, thick eyebrows, a straight nose, and a faint gleam of light flashed in his big eyes from time to time.Even though he was sitting on the grand master's chair, his tall body still gave people a kind of oppressive force. In addition, he had been in a high position for a long time and was in charge of a settlement of nearly 5000 people. Cheng Qiyi carried an invisible majesty all over his body.

After Luo Hou sat down, Cheng Qiyi looked him up carefully, and then said:
"Don't be restrained, drink tea first."

"Thank you, President." Luo Hou picked up the teacup in front of him, and drank the lightly fragrant yellow-green tea in one gulp.Although he couldn't identify the type of tea, Luo Hou also felt that there was a faint sweetness in his mouth for a long time aftertaste, it should not be ordinary tea.

After beckoning to the graceful woman standing beside him to refill Luo Hou's tea, Cheng Qiyi asked leisurely:

"I don't know the name of the little brother, what can I do for you?"

Luohou tried his best to relax his body, and broke free from the oppressive feeling brought by Cheng Qiyi, then smiled slightly, and replied:

"Back to the president, my name is Luo Hou, I'm here today to sell something to the president."

Seeing that Luo Hou recovered so quickly from the coercion he deliberately exerted, a look of surprise flashed in Cheng Qiyi's eyes, he casually glanced at the snakeskin bag Luo Hou put on the ground, and asked with great interest: "Oh! , What is something interesting, brother Luo doesn't sell it in the market outside, you want to bring it here?"

"The president will know after a look, and you will definitely not be disappointed."

Luo Hou opened the snakeskin bag, placed the cigarettes wrapped in plastic paper directly on the table, and unhurriedly tore apart the plastic paper, revealing the neatly stacked cigarettes inside.

"Huh—" The woman who was pouring tea by the side let out a soft cry, and quickly covered her mouth.

When Cheng Qiyi saw the small pile of cigarettes on the table, a strange look flashed in his eyes, and he took another serious look at Luo Hou.It is really unexpected that this young man who seems to be just an ordinary person can get so many cigarettes. Cheng Qiyi secretly said "interesting", nodded to Luo Hou, and said with a smile:

"Brother Xiao Luo is really good, you can get so much smoke! Well, you are right, this thing really did not disappoint me."

After roughly estimating the value of these cigarettes, Cheng Qiyi nodded again and said:
"How about this, I won't let you suffer, just according to the market price, how about I buy these cigarettes of yours with a hundred gray crystals?"

"Then thank you, President." Luo Hou would not object to this, and packing these cigarettes with a hundred gray crystals is a completely acceptable price.Although selling it outside may yield a little more, but it is too troublesome and may attract the attention of interested people. Now that Luohou's own strength is low, he dare not ask for trouble.

"Haha, Brother Xiao Luo is really a cheerful person, I admire such a young man." Cheng Qiyi laughed, motioned to the woman on the side to withdraw money, raised his teacup and said, "Come, drink tea!"

The two chatted casually again, and the woman came out of the back hall with a small plate in her hand, and placed it on the table respectfully.Under the bright fluorescent lamp, the small pile of gray crystals the size of pigeon eggs on the plate exuded a silver-gray light as a whole, which almost dazzled Luo Hou's eyes.

......"

"Haha, if Brother Xiao Luo has such a good thing in the future, you must leave it to me!"

After the money and goods were settled, Cheng Qiyi greeted Luo Hou for a cup of tea, then got up and watched him go out of the yard.

"Interesting, interesting, it's not easy for an ordinary young man who is not a first-order evolutionary to get so many cigarettes from Weiyang City - go check it out, if there is potential for development, pay more attention to it for a while .”

"Yes!" The woman bowed back and stepped back into the backyard.
