I witnessed with my own eyes that the last Desert Tiger was blown up by the two tanks in the camp. However, no one got out of the two tanks and rushed to collect the Taitai Desert Tiger's G. Instead, they parked at each other with eager eyes. In both places, facing Ma Tao and the others on the sandy slope, four tanks suddenly appeared and the enemy was unknown. The opponent was right not to get out of the car rashly, but it was Ma Tao who had only one tank on the opposite side. It deserves to be treated with caution.
In fact, Ma Tao's thinking is already very conservative. A team with four tanks is already a very large convoy now, and they are not a caravan yet. They don't have those cumbersome trucks. They are all the masters of the Eight Classics. The battle tanks, especially the eyes of his tanks, red, green, blue and pink, the four colors of the four tanks, all of them look so obvious. For Ma Tao, he has long been used to it, but for In the eyes of others, this is arrogant capital and proof of confidence in one's own strength.
"Friends from afar! Can you come down and talk?" One of the gray and black chariots turned on the microphone speaker, and a man's confident voice came out from it.
"We don't mean any harm, we just saw so much smoke, so we came to take a look." Ma Tao also turned on the speaker of his tank, first explained the reason, and then picked up the microphone again and said, "Is this your merchant camp?" ?」
The question in this sentence is already very obvious, indicating that one of them knows the merchant banner.
"Guests from afar, if you want to see the goods, please come with me." The gray-black chariot did not ask too much. The skilled driver of the chariot turned around on the spot, brought up a wisp of yellow smoke and sand, and took the lead towards the lake behind the lake. They drove into the small woods, but the other yellow heavy tank did not move. It just stopped there, as if waiting for them.
"Let's go, just in time to see if there is anything good." Ma Tao planned to touch the co-pilot Su Lanxi's little hand, but the latter easily dodged it.
The four tanks slowly drove down the hillside, bringing up a cloud of smoke and dust. They followed the gray-black tank in front into the woods. The yellow heavy tank that stayed behind waited until all four tanks were gone. After entering the woods, the alloy tracks turned again and entered the woods. Just after the yellow heavy tank entered the woods, what was just a forest passage suddenly turned into a dense forest, and there was no way to enter.
The trees in the forest were thick and leafy. After turning two turns, the convoy entered an open space in the forest. The area was not very large, about the same as a football field. The entire camp was hidden in the forest, and not all the campgrounds were covered. All the trees were cleared away, but some were regularly left for hiding and building structures. It was considered the simplest segmentation. There were many concealment nets pulled above, and they were all covered with leaves for camouflage. Even in the air, it is not easy to find the location of the camp, so as to prevent the camp from being directly exposed to the sight of flying monsters.
It can be seen that the facilities inside the camp are very simple. There is a well in the middle of the open space. It is near a lake and the water level of groundwater is very close. You only need to dig a shallow well. This eliminates the need to frequently go in and out of the woods. The risk of being discovered is that there are basically no buildings in the camp. They are all tents, which are waterproof tents made of thick kraft paper. They are easy to carry and can be simply set up to house people or store goods. It is very convenient. Some tents are guarded, and some are guarded. There is no one to guard them. From this point of view, those tents that need to be guarded should be the factory warehouses of the camp. They must contain some of the most valuable materials and equipment in the entire camp.
Ma Tao and the others followed the chariot in front and were taken to an open space specially used to park vehicles. This place could barely park ten vehicles. The surface was filled up and quicklime was added. Otherwise, the soil in the forest would be difficult to park. It is so loose that it cannot withstand the crushing of tens of tons of chariots. When quicklime encounters water or moisture, it will react and heat up, and finally solidify to form a hard foundation. However, this method is not suitable for long-term use. , after a long time, it will still break, and it will never be as strong as reinforced concrete.
Ma Tao drove the chariot all the way and found that there were not many people in the camp. There were about thirty or forty people. Facing the convoy entering the camp, everyone was watching them warily, as if they were afraid of them. Looks like someone came to steal something.
So far, Ma Tao has only seen these two tanks.
I guess the person in the car leading the way must be the leader of this camp.
After parking the car, a flat-headed man in a vest jumped out of the gray-black tank. He looked like he was in his thirties. What surprised Ma Tao was that this guy did not carry any weapons and equipment and was just wearing such a uniform. He wore a tight-fitting T-shirt, got off the chariot, and stood in front of his own chariot with a smile, waiting for his group.
"Isn't this person afraid that we are bad guys and robbed his camp?" Su Lanyu was also a little curious. Generally speaking, it is impossible for him to become a camp manager without a little bit of brains. This kind of behavior is equivalent to giving up his life. It definitely shouldn't happen.
"Perhaps...he has something to rely on?" Su Lanxi thought for a moment and said.
"With strong support, once a shell passes by, it will be too late to do anything." Su Lanyu shook his head and said.
"Don't worry about this. We are not bad people. Even if he is betting, congratulations to him. He made the right bet." After Ma Tao finished speaking, he armed his silver mecha and checked his equipment. Don't be afraid of others. , no matter what he did unintentionally, he always had a mentality of not looking down on anyone. The cruelty of this world and the evil of human nature, plundering, Noah can't compare with humans at all, even the children on the roadside. Maybe they are thinking of using the methods around them to kill you and secretly take away all your resources. The previous supply point is the best witness. Sisters Su Lanyu and Su Lanxi glanced at each other, and then they were all armed and followed Ma Tao out of the chariot.
"Welcome to our distinguished guests from afar, welcome to our famous wolf, my name is Gobi, welcome to my camp." The man in the flat-haired T-shirt saw that the person getting off the red Merkava tank was actually a young man in his twenties. The man was suddenly a little confused, and then he saw the identical twin sisters behind Ma Tao. He was surprised for a moment, but his expression soon returned to normal, he opened his arms with a smile, and made a hug gesture from a distance with a smile.
Because they were not familiar with the environment here, Xiao Jinzi, Gao Han and their sister did not get out of the car. Ma Tao also acquiesced in the unfamiliar environment. The principle of sailing a ten thousand year ship with caution should never be left behind.
"You know me?" These words made Ma Tao's eyebrows jump.
"No, I don't know you, but I know your car." Gobi looked past Ma Tao, and finally fixed on the red Merkava main battle tank behind them, with some memories in his eyes. After a while, he turned back to look at Ma Tao and continued: "Don't you remember? In the frozen town of Free, we were besieged by a large number of laser bugs and missile frogs, and the car got stuck in an ice cave. It was you who saved us. That hellish place is so cold that it makes people desperate. I don’t want to go there anymore.”
"Really? I can't remember anymore." Ma Tao smiled slightly. He didn't know whether what the other party said was true or false, let alone the situation at the time, so he simply said that he had forgotten it and dismissed the topic. However, what he saw in front of him was It is true that Gobi knew Red Wolf. At the very least, he knew Red Wolf’s car. This was the main reason why he dared to meet Red Wolf without any weapons and equipment. Just imagine, with Red Wolf’s character and personality, the people behind his back There is absolutely no chance of a dirty trick happening, so he has no fear. As for whether he knows Red Wolf himself or not, there is no way to know. Maybe, only the real Red Wolf himself can know, but now, these are all It doesn't matter anymore. Regardless of whether the Gobi in front of him knows Red Wolf himself or not, since he has not revealed it now, it is logical that Ma Tao will continue to assume the identity of Red Wolf.
"You noble man is so forgetful. It's normal not to remember such an episode." Sure enough, Gobi did not continue to dwell on this issue. He glanced at No. 4 Leopard and No. 6 Tiger, who never got out of the car. style, and a weird-looking minibus. Then he stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation and said: "Let's go and look at the goods."
Saying this, Gebi led Ma Tao, sisters Su Lanyu and Su Lanxi to the entrance of a tent guarded by guards. When the guard in a steel-clad mecha saw Gebi, he straightened his back and held the middleware in one hand. Zi Pao pulled up the tent door curtain with one hand, and several people entered the tent.
"This is a small camp. I mainly sell some odds and ends. I don't know if Mr. Red Wolf can use it." There were many wooden boxes piled up in the tent. Gobi directly moved the wooden boxes in front of him. Open it, and then take out the contents one by one and display them.
Said in front of Ma Tao: "PAGLL simple armor piece, 300G, fax device, 350G"
"Is there only these two? No way, you only sell such a few things in a camp as big as yours?" Su Lanxi looked at the goods in the entire tent and said strangely.
"Beautiful lady, here are the chariot parts. There are only these two things. But you are right. There is also a human tool library over there. Do you want to take a look?" Gobi replied.
"Human tool store? What's there?" Su Lanxi asked next.
"To be honest, the best and most sought-after goods I sell here are in that warehouse, and apart from me, I'm afraid there aren't many merchants in the entire continent who have this thing." Speaking of his main To make a living, Gobi smiled proudly and confidently, but did not continue.
Hearing Gobi's pretense, the three of them looked at each other. Ma Tao knew that it was time for him to appear. On the surface, he remained calm and said with a smile, "Can you tell me what it is and how valuable it is?"
The purpose of Gobi's pretense was to wait for Red Wolf to speak. Seeing that the target mission had spoken, he quickly smiled and said: "If you want to talk about the most sought-after goods in the world, it is naturally potions. The better the potions, the more precious they are. It can be said that this medicine is a magic weapon to save your life when you go out."
Ma Tao's mind skipped a beat when he saw Gobi continue: "I will not sell low-end products, but high-end products. I don't know if ginseng medicine is considered high-end products."
After Gobi finished speaking, Ma Tao could no longer hold back the ecstasy in his heart, and tried his best to suppress the huge fluctuations in his heart. You know, he had bought such a good product as ginseng potion before. The bottle had been used up when he was fighting Fran. Not to mention the effect of the potion. It had brought him and his team back from the brink of death many times. He was worried about what he would do if he ran out of this thing. Well, it's here now. Isn't this just a pillow delivered to me when I dozed off? Ma Tao even wondered if this was God giving him the green light.
"Do you have ginseng potion?" Su Lanyu and Su Lanxi are not the kind of people who keep their emotions secret. When they heard that you can buy precious ginseng potion here, the smiles on their faces were as happy as flowers in midsummer. sweet.
"Yes, as many as you want, as many as you want," Gobi said, looking at the three of them and nodding with certainty.
"How much does one cost?" Ma Tao asked.
"50G each," Gobi replied directly, holding out five fingers.
"50!" The corners of Ma Tao's eyes twitched and twitched. 50G. When he was in Shura Hall, his group bought ten of them for 100G each. Ma Tao originally thought that there must be a few of these things. The price of one piece is 100G. Unexpectedly, the price of 50G really shocked my jaw. Such a price that is close to the people is simply too cheap.
"Isn't that a lie?" Su Lanyu frowned, somewhat skeptical about this.
"We can go inspect the goods now," Gobi said, patting his chest.
"Let's go take a look at the potion first," Ma Tao said.
Soon, Gobi led the three people to another tent that also had guard handles. The difference was that there were actually four guards here. Moreover, the tent was much larger than the one just now. After entering, There were actually two guards inside guarding the goods piled up in nearly half the tent.
Gebi didn't hesitate. He walked straight to a piece of goods, opened the covering tarpaulin, and took out a box of things from inside. Ma Tao recognized it at a glance. This was the box containing ginseng potion, which was the same as the one in Shura Hall before. That one is exactly the same.
When the medicine box was opened to reveal the milky white ginseng medicine inside, Ma Tao's suspicions were completely dispelled. Yes, the box in front of him was genuine ginseng medicine. Looking at the exposed ginseng medicine under the tarpaulin, they were stacked one on top of the other. In the medicine box, with this height and this quantity, there are probably no less than a thousand medicines here. Not only that, Gobi actually opened a bottle of ginseng medicine in front of everyone, and then took out a handful from the guard's waist. With the dagger between his little fingers, he directly made a small wound with the dagger. Dark red blood emerged from the incision between his little fingers. Gobi directly poured the opened bottle of ginseng potion onto it.
On the wound, most of the milky white liquid was spilled on the ground. Seeing Ma Tao, he shouted in his heart that it was a waste.
When I thought about the ginseng medicine that I and others were reluctant to part with, they were just swaying it around like boiled water in the hands of others. This scene suddenly became a bit ironic.
Staring at the small incision healing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, the authenticity of this thing is self-evident.
"How much do you want?" Gobi didn't care about this thing at all. After opening it with his own hands and using it, he threw the empty medicine bottle to the guards aside, then looked at them with a smile and asked.
"I want 100 bottles," Ma Tao said directly without hesitation. This thing is a consumable, and it should have a long shelf life, Ma Tao thought.
"One hundred bottles???" This number made Gobi stunned for a while.
"Did I hear you correctly?" Looking at Ma Tao's young face, Gebi asked tentatively. Even if the person in front of him was a red wolf, even if he thought that a wolf would not refuse such a good thing as ginseng potion, but the person opposite him The opening number is one hundred, which is really a big deal, and of course, it is also a big order.
Not only him, but also the sisters Su Lanyu and Su Lanxi who came with Ma Tao were a little confused. The ginseng potion was good, but there was no need to use so much. The two women looked at Ma Tao's "" face and hesitated for a moment. , and did not stop.
"You heard that right, it's a hundred." Ma Tao nodded firmly.
"Well..." Although the business was very attractive, Gebi still planned to persuade the "young red wolf" in front of him, and continued: "A hundred ginseng potions, I don't know what kind of battle requires so many, do you really Have you thought it through?"
"I thought clearly, it's just a hundred, but..." Ma Tao paused deliberately as he spoke, looked at Gobi's alert eyes and said with a smile, "I need you to agree to a condition."
"Conditions? What conditions?" Gobi didn't understand what the person in front of him wanted to do, and the guards in the tent were already wary in their eyes.
"Don't be nervous, it's actually a very simple request, that is, I want you to contact someone." Ma Tao smiled slightly, indicating that his request was not an unreasonable one, so that they could rest assured.
"Contact someone? Who?" Upon hearing such a request, both Gebi and the guards in the tent breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, Gebi was very worried about bringing the other person directly to the warehouse. After all, it is easy to get such a pile of goods. It makes people jealous and envious.
"A man named Qian Santai," Ma Tao said with a smile.
"Fatty Qian from the Zongheng Caravan?" Unexpectedly, he just said it, but he didn't expect that Gobi actually knew Qian Santai.
"Do you know him?" Ma Tao was surprised. He didn't expect that Lao Qian's name had spread so far, even far beyond his own exploration distance.
"Who knows about Qian Santai who annexed the Black Mamba and unified the caravan trade, but we don't know each other," Gobi nodded and replied.
"That's easy, I have his contact information," Ma Tao said, and began to look for Qian Santai's channel code.
In fact, Ma Tao came up with this idea just after confirming the authenticity of the ginseng potion. He is not good at doing business, but if he is not good, someone can. The ginseng potion is such a good thing. I believe that Lao Qian will not let him down. .
After leaving Qian Santai's contact information and paying 5000G directly, Ma Tao and the others left the tent.
"Leader, is this man really a red wolf? Is he...too young?" Seeing Ma Tao and the others walking away, the guard beside him quietly approached Gebi and asked in a low voice.
"Of course he is not. How long has Red Wolf been famous? Look how old he is." Gobi glanced at the 5000G and sighed, and then said: "But that bright red chariot does belong to Red Wolf."
"He's not a red wolf, then he..." The guard was about to say something, but suddenly thought of something and didn't dare to say anything.
"Understood?" Gobi looked back at the guard, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Whether he is a red wolf or not, since he is driving a wolf cart, he is a red wolf."
