When faced with a gun, people tend to become kinder and easier to talk to. Not long ago, they were still insisting on some cost. The boss ordered the young man with a colorful turban to obediently take the key card to open the underground warehouse behind the supply station and move out. Boxes of 26-gauge fuel.
"Wouldn't it be better if this was the case?" Gu Luo patted him on the shoulder, and then asked how the other party collected money.
"You don't need to think about 2 million federal coins, but I won't rely on you for what should be given."
"There is a card swiping machine connected to the Star Network in the store." He raised his hand and answered honestly with a flowered scarf, occasionally glancing at the people aside, especially Avni and Ruby. After all, in this deserted place, such a beautiful woman Children, I probably won’t meet one in ten years.
"Be honest and don't look around." Jin Senke kicked him and almost knocked him over, but he still didn't dare to fight back. He just led everyone to the hall.
What’s a little surprising is that several guests in the lobby have not left yet. Some are drinking, some are lying around and sleeping. They seem to be used to this kind of battle. They also have guns on hand and most of them have bulletproof vests hanging on them. , with a rough voice.
After all, this is the lawless North District, and you won’t go out casually without some defense capabilities. Logically speaking, this store should also have protective capabilities. However, as a store clerk, after seeing the weapons of several people, he flexibly chose to give up. , You may die if you resist, but if you don't resist, you will only lose the boss's money and goods. He still knows this.
"This is the card swiping machine." He squatted under the counter and rummaged around, and found an old white card swiping machine with a lot of stickers on it that had not been torn off. Look at the yellowed edges on the drawing paper. , and the model number on the side of the flash machine are also very old things.
"I have seen this kind of old-fashioned guy in nostalgic games. I never thought it existed in reality. The question is, can it still be used?" Xi Mu knocked on the side, and a crisp sound echoed from the hard shell.
"It can be used, but it is troublesome to debug. Today's encrypted communication method will be laggy for this old model." He started the card machine while speaking, then debugged the parameters and entered the password. Wait, after tinkering for more than ten minutes, the page finally appeared that the connection was successful and payment could be made.
"According to the market price, 400L of 26 model fuel only costs 20,000 federal coins. Considering that it is really troublesome for you to transport it, I will give you 100,000 federal coins." Although 100,000 seems to be a lot, for Jin Senke For a person, it was probably just a few meals, so he generously took out his card and swiped it on.
"Thank you, uh, thank you." Seeing that the old man actually paid the money and didn't play tricks on him, the expression in the flower turban immediately became more flattering. He even asked if there was anyone else who needed service. He could tell now. Yes, these people are really rich and they won't kill him.
"You don't have to worry about giving us food or anything. Let's talk about the latest information. Do you have a map or something?" Da Ma Jin Dao sat on the table and chair nearby. Jin Senke began to interrogate, while other members Some were carrying the fuel back into the car, while others were looking around the store to see all the old items in the shabby interior.
Ruby pulled Avni and looked through the bar counter, talking about the names of some of the alcoholic drinks she knew. Many of them were counterfeit and low-quality products, and a few bottles looked real.
"I'm very good at wine. I've been approached by red wine brand companies before, but unfortunately not many people like red wine these days." In the new era, various new drinks have been developed, with more classic styles. Naturally, red wine is not as popular as it used to be.
While the two were talking in a low voice, several customers in the corner of the store focused their eyes on their backs. After all, in this wilderness where women are rare, such beautiful and young girls are really rare.
One of the guests, who was already a little drunk, stood up unsteadily, muttering vague words in his mouth, as if he was seeing some kind of hallucination, and staggered over, ready to reach behind the bar. There were two girls, but Valk next to him grabbed his hand and then blocked him.
"Who are you...? Let me go... I'm warning you, I'm... but a member of the 'Leopard Head Gang'. If you offend me... don't leave this North Second District." He spoke in a confused voice. He was confused and seemed to be about to fall down at any time. For this kind of person, Valk just shook his head and gently let him fall to the ground.
Seeing how tall Valk was, the drunken guest's companion didn't dare to have an attack. He just helped him up and took him aside, whispering, "Brother Long, wake up." '
On the other side, Jin Senke also slowly listened to the situation described by Hua Turban.
"That is to say, the North Second District is now deserted, with only a few places settled by people, and the most powerful ones are 'Burning Sun City' and 'Withered Tree Garden', right?"
"Yes, there used to be a 'Jie Lou City', but last year they seemed to have changed their previous strategy and left the entire city in the North Second District. During that time, the fleet was so majestic that it surprised many people."
"Oh? They just left like that. Where did they go?"
"I don't know about this either. It is said that they have gone to other areas to re-open. Nowadays, there are still a small number of old people clinging to the ruins of Jilou City. The surrounding areas are slowly being abandoned. Many originally wandering forces are fighting for these empty spaces. We have fought several times at the settlement where we came, and now it is several newly established gangs that occupy the ruins of Jielou City.”
"This change is quite big. I have heard about Jielo City before. It is a relatively special force, and its culture is different from ours." Ya Lian sat aside and analyzed.
"Ignore all that for now. Have you drawn the rough sphere of influence on the map? Send it to us first."
After another round of tinkering and questioning, Jin Senke and Allen couldn't find anything valuable new, so they stood up and prepared to leave.
"Oh... I haven't paid for this yet." The young man with the flower headscarf looked at a few people leaving and became anxious again. He clearly looked fearful and disgusted before.
"Money? Didn't I give it to you? The one hundred thousand I just paid for." Jin Senke glanced at him. He was not short of money, but he didn't like giving money to such people.
"Isn't that gas money?" Hua Turban was speechless and didn't know how to reason.
"It's okay, it's all the same." After saying that, Jin Senke led people out of the supply station with a smile.
Soon after, the big car started up again outside. Although there was a slight black mist from the tail smoke, it still started running and quickly disappeared at the end of the wilderness, leaving only a field of smoke and dust.
"These guys!" As soon as the others left, Hua Turban's expression changed immediately, he squeezed the beer can in his hand and threw it out.
"How dare you trick me and draw a power map, haha, but you won't be able to take advantage of it. You actually forcefully buy things on the territory of the crocodile boss." After muttering a few words, the flowered turban went back to the supply station. He started to report to his boss, and of course he added some details in the middle, saying how loyal and resourceful he was, how he protected his boss's property, and successfully frightened the other party into keeping the money.
"Although they gave you some money, it's obvious that they don't take you seriously, boss. All the other customers in the store saw it. If we don't teach them a lesson, no one will take us seriously in the future."
…
…
"Who are the other guests? Let me think about it, there is A Qiang from the Leopard Head Gang, Red Beard from the solo escort, and a few coolies who are running for their lives."
…
"Okay, boss, I understand. I will send you the surveillance video of the store later. Hehe, let me tell you, there are two girls among them who are particularly beautiful. If they can be obtained on the black market, they will probably be sold for sky-high prices. .”
——————
In the gray and yellow wilderness, a large truck was driving in smoke and dust. Rhythmic music was playing in the front of the truck. He leaned on his side on the driver's seat, shaking the drink cup with one hand and resting on his chin with the other.
Although he is the driver, it does not mean that he is required to operate all the time. Under today's AI autonomous driving, he only needs to make occasional adjustments according to the situation to deal with emergencies.
Although he didn't go in to what happened in the store, he knew about the whole process through other means. He didn't make any comments about it, but he just found it quite interesting, just like a person who has passed the level at full level watching a novice pass the first level.
It's really reckless, leaving so many flaws, but it's still quite interesting.
Inside the carriage, it was another scene.
Jin Senke now had his arms around his shoulders, the protective suit jacket on his back like a cloak, and he lightly pressed his eyebrows and sunglasses with one hand, making a handsome look.
"Whatever, my method is better, right, hahaha~" After saying that, he patted Allen on the shoulder. Although he didn't say a word, it was all understood.
In this operation team, except for Tilan, who is the president, he has the highest popularity and prestige now, surpassing Ya Lian in the past, and now he seems to want to take the second-in-command position.
Among the other people, although Avni and Iyepel didn't catch a cold very much, the rest couldn't help but slightly agreed, which solved the current dilemma.
At night, Tilan woke up and sat by the campfire, listening to Ruby telling her the whole process, occasionally covering her mouth with her hand and yawning.
"So, you just bought a batch of fuel without any cover-up, right?" She held her forehead and felt a headache.
"Give them 100,000, and I guess they can still make a profit." Although she has never engaged in this kind of illegal reselling, based on what she learned in Jielou City before, some things in the North Second District cost only Lower than outside.
When the North Star District was transferred, the old factory equipment that could not be taken away was abandoned here. If someone takes care of it, it will not be difficult to restart it.
"It's impossible to produce advanced and cutting-edge things, but general industrial products like old-fashioned fuel are not a big problem. Moreover, the North Second District is extremely poor, and the personnel costs are surprisingly low. You can give him 40,000 federal coins and he can't make it. Less, let alone 100,000." Still a little sleepy, Tilan still helped people around her analyze it slowly.
"Those who open a shop in this kind of wilderness are very well-informed. You were so generous before. You bought brand-new firearms and weapons, and you spent a lot of money, but you have money written on your face that you are stupid." The girl faintly said. Make complaints.
"I estimate that there will be many greedy guys looking for me along the way."
"What should I do? Oh, if a cute and beautiful girl idol like me is caught, the consequences can only be seen in certain banned videos." Ruby pretended to be scared.
"Okay, okay, the situation is not entirely that bad. Although there are many jealous guys, most of the forces here are average in strength, and they don't have any high-end advanced weapons. We can just show them when the time comes. We are here to practice anyway. Yes, we will meet him sooner or later." The girl shook her head.
During the winter vacation, she listened to Gu Qianlou telling a lot about the past events of the North Second District. Although she had not stayed here for a long time, she was definitely not an unknown person. In addition, through comparison with the battle with her uncle, the girl It also roughly clarified the current strength level in the North Second District.
There may be a lot of ordinary Sequence 5 professionals, but there are only a handful of Sequence 6 professionals, and there are probably only one or two high-level people in Burning Sun City and Dead Tree Garden.
More than half a year ago, she was able to break into the depths of Jilou City alone. Now she is not too worried when facing two forces at the same level. In the end, if it doesn't work, she can still call for foreign aid, such as the man in the cab. Have some drinks and goof off with Mr. N.
As for being injured, don't worry about it. Her talent is very convenient for healing, and with the awakenings again and again, Tilan herself doesn't know where the limit is now.
If she only uses the talent of the Bridging Crystal, she can barely compete with the masters of Sequence 6 at the level of Sequence 4. But if she adds the changes brought about by the singer's talent, she should be able to defeat those who are unprepared and caught off guard. Sequence 6, such as the previous battle with Ranbei'er.
After understanding the situation, Tilan had dinner with everyone, and then returned to the car and continued to sleep. Since the singing that night, she seemed to have experienced some kind of change. She has been feeling sleepy recently, and has begun to appear in her dreams. Various scenes that have never been seen before, some are the reverberations left by the first two generations of color-level singers in time and space, and some are collective emotions and unconsciousness that once broke out. Such scenes are very confusing, and she sometimes feels confused. I don’t know exactly what era it was from.
It will probably take some time before she gradually returns to normal. She seems to be getting used to this change, probably because she is no longer burdened by too many debts.
After finishing the day, in the next few days, the group continued to collect samples one by one according to the mission map. In the process, the whole team was constantly getting along. They had never traveled and lived with other peers before, and each other's habits and ideas were on campus. There will be no collisions when outside, but it will be different outside.
Although Tilan still often feels sleepy, she still comes out to talk to everyone every day, and then participates in the summary and discussion every night.
Each other's personalities and ideas are different, and it is inevitable that there will be disagreements. However, for the sake of the common task and for the overall team to not fall apart, everyone is looking for a suitable position and mode of getting along. Slowly, some of the green thoughts of the past gradually fade away. , in the daily discussions and analysis, everyone finally became more consistent.
Thanks to the leader of soy sauce shrimp fish! Thanks(ω)
It’s a bit difficult to add more this month, I will definitely fill it in next month (
