attack city

After thinking about it, Xiang Yang contacted Gu Mingcheng.

"Little brother, it's you, hello, hello." Hearing Xiang Yang's contact, Gu Mingcheng was obviously very happy, "Your city has been upgraded again. It's really amazing. It's so huge. This is a county level, right?"

.”

"I just upgraded not long ago." Xiang Yang said casually.

"Do you want to buy something? White sugar, brown sugar, various condiments, rice and vegetables. It's rare to see you on this trip. If it's you, I'll give it to you at a cheaper price."

Gu Mingcheng said: "If you have a lot of crystals, we can also buy them according to the market price here."

"We don't have crystals to sell. We have enough rice and vegetables. We do need to buy white sugar, brown sugar and condiments. Let me give you our demand list." Xiang Yang said.

After entering the county level, Shenlong City has a total of 170 acres of land. They now have a population of just over 300. Although a lot of the land has been turned into orchards, they are self-sufficient in vegetables and have more to sell.

However, there are still many rice fields, and the scale of rice-fish farming has also expanded.

Now rice and fish are also their most commonly sold goods.

Sugar is what Shenlong City needs to buy, and a batch will be purchased almost every once in a while, but this is not the core purpose of contacting Gu Mingcheng.

The purchase of supplies was completed first, so Xiang Yang reported the specific quantities to Gu Mingcheng.

Then, Gu Mingcheng gave him a price, which was indeed very cheap, more than 20% lower than other cities. It was basically the cost price for him.

Because Gujiacheng is currently mainly hanging out in Crocodile Valley, he only comes here to buy crystals, and only occasionally sells them to Xiang Yang, so he doesn't make any profit.

If it weren't for the difficulty of survival and the people in the city had to be considered, he would probably give it to Xiang Yang directly.

After all, Xiang Yang helped him a lot.

The reason why he was able to reach Mohe Trading Ground so safely was thanks to the route information Xiang Yang gave him. Otherwise, it would be quite dangerous to come here at the village level.

Gu Mingcheng is a person who is relatively loyal and understands the ways of the world. Even though he came to an abnormal world like the wasteland, he still did not change these characteristics of his.

Being promoted to the village level caused changes within the original small team and he had to leave. He was actually a little uncomfortable.

He didn't even understand at first that he hadn't done anything to feel sorry for other cities, and in fact he was more considerate of other cities, but the atmosphere within the group inexplicably took a turn for the worse.

But sometimes circumstances and situations force people to make decisions.

Leaving the transportation and trading of goods to others, Xiang Yang contacted Gu Mingcheng again and began to talk about the core purpose of finding the other party this time: "Brother Gu, do you want to make a lot of money?"

"Well, make a lot of money?" Gu Mingcheng asked: "What kind of business? Or is it the discovery of ruins or something like that?"

"Business, firearms sales, I also purchase goods from other places." Xiang Yang's purpose is to find a middleman to sell weapons and ask Gujiacheng to help sell firearms.

But he was still cautious and did not say that he produced it himself. He only said that he was a middleman, that is, a middleman who found a middleman. This was safer.

"Currently, we only have semi-automatic rifles and matching ammunition, with a magazine capacity of eight rounds. We are agents within tens of thousands of kilometers around Mohe, but we cannot often go to other trading venues. You know the journey is too long and the cost is quite high."

"We will give you the wholesale price, and you can take it to Crocodile Valley to sell it," Xiang Yang said.

"You have rifles. How much is the price? If you want to wholesale, we don't know if we have the ability. You know our resources are not very sufficient and we still need to buy crystals."

Gu Mingcheng said: "But we can buy some for ourselves."

In the Gujiacheng control room, an aboriginal captain reminded: "City Lord, rifles are quite expensive, and they are of no use. They can only be used for hunting. We can probably do that with crossbows now."

"It's too luxurious to hunt with a rifle, but you can use it occasionally. Some larger prey are difficult to shoot with a crossbow."

Gu Mingcheng was noncommittal and said: "Buying some guns will make you feel at ease."

The aboriginal captain was a little speechless, but he couldn't convince the city lord of some things. He had already learned from them.

But their resources are really tight right now and they need to use them wisely.

However, having a few guns is certainly beneficial to soldiers, and it is much safer to go out.

After thinking about it, he still didn't plan to continue persuading him.

"If you want a gun, we will give you two rifles, plus thirty-two rounds of ammunition, as trial supplies." Xiang Yang was very sure, and he found it easy to win over Gu Jiacheng to sell weapons.

As for sales, there is no problem. The core market in Crocodile Valley is not an aboriginal city, but a new human city.

Because almost all the new human cities from Terra like firearms and weapons, and they need to prepare some even if they are trying to sell iron, but Gu Mingcheng is not the only one who has this idea.

In his previous life, Gujiacheng also bought firearms, including rifles and pistols, and Xiang Yang and other soldiers knew how to do it.

The reason is not complicated, it is just a kind of path dependence, or a habit that is difficult to change. You have a gun in your hand and don't panic in your heart.

This is Terra's basic common sense.

Even if you know that in the wasteland world, when a city encounters a crisis, guns are of little use, but the inertia of thinking deep in the brain cannot be easily changed.

Although Shenlong City is already at the county level, there is no problem in finding other middlemen.

But looking for villages, towns and cities to distribute in Mohe is not safe, so we can only do the same as he did at the beginning, reduce the scale, which is meaningless.

In the past, when Xiang Yang was selling weapons, he would often tell customers that they were out of stock. In fact, there was no shortage. He just showed that he was just a small agent and didn't have much in stock. This was a necessary disguise because the city was too small.

Looking for counties and cities, Xiang Yang still feels that the risk is high.

Even if he says he is a middleman, there is no guarantee that others will not guess it over time.

In fact, the most important issue is trust. If you don’t know a city that you are familiar with, it’s not as easy as imagined to find a middleman. Trust is sometimes really difficult.

Relatively speaking, Gujiacheng is a very suitable target.

The two parties are relatively familiar with each other, having known each other since the Novice Continent. They are from the same planet, and the New Human City is a good gun dumping market.

Xiang Yang is even quite familiar with the current internal population structure of Gujiacheng.

The wasteland world is so big and there are few cities, so the butterfly effect should not be that serious. Not surprisingly, they are all colleagues from his previous life.

All conditions are good.

"What's the price? I mean wholesale sales."

Gu Mingcheng was a little excited and sent some samples to dealers to try out to familiarize themselves with the products. This was also a routine operation, so he did not doubt Xiang Yang's words.

What he was considering was the wholesale price, and whether Gujiacheng had the opportunity to eat this bowl of rice.

"Market purchase price, newcomer package, one energy block provides sixteen rounds of ammunition, two magazines are given as a gift, and a rifle is given as a gift if you purchase 80 rounds of ammunition."

"Buy one energy block and one rifle."

"Old customer, one energy block has twenty-four bullets, and one magazine will be sent every eight. If you buy three rifles, you will get two energy blocks."

"Whether it's a new customer or an old customer, any purchase over fifty energy blocks will be discounted at 10%."

Xiang Yang said: "The wholesale price I'll give you is half the above price."

Half price is equivalent to half of the gross profit. The risk of middlemen is very high. After all, they are responsible for the front desk, and there are also road costs, etc.

But once it's done, it's a big deal, and you can get a lot of resources with a small amount of inventory.

Gu Mingcheng quickly figured out that this was a huge profit.

"It's so expensive, will anyone buy it?" Gu Mingcheng was a little worried about the price. He didn't understand why the firearms were so expensive. According to common sense, as long as there were no control issues, these were very cheap.

Of course, the wasteland is unregulated.

"Do you still remember that a few months ago, I bought map information from many cities? As a fellow countryman, I think they will want it, so you don't have to worry about sales."

Xiang Yang replied: "As for aboriginal cities, there is no guarantee. You should try not to find aboriginal cities. They are more dangerous."

"City Lord, if there are many people with the same idea as you and it can be sold, I think they will want it from the cities that have been in alliance with us in the past."

In the Gujiacheng control room, the aboriginal captain said again: "But I still have to remind you that we don't have the resources to purchase goods."

Gu Mingcheng touched his nose and pondered for a moment. They really couldn't do this kind of business because they had no capital.

"We don't have enough resources. If we want to sell, we can't get much. If the quantity is too small, it seems meaningless." Gu Mingcheng did not mention the quantity.

Because the amount he could afford was only about fifty energy blocks, so it was okay to just bring them along and earn some traveling expenses. He felt a little ashamed to be a professional middleman and sell them.

"Money is not an issue."

Xiang Yang had known for a long time that Gujiacheng had no resources and had to buy crystals. It was not easy to come here. The crystals must be brought back and he had no money to be a middleman.

But this really isn't a problem.

"We can lend it to you as a low-interest loan."

There are risks in one-stop service. This risk does not mean that Gujiacheng will default on his debts. Regardless of Gu Mingcheng's character or interests, Gujiacheng will not dare to default on his debts.

If you default on your debt, it will lead to war, your property and life will be in danger, and your business will be lost. Almost no city will take risks in this regard.

The risk lies in the issue of debt cancellation after death. If Gujiacheng is destroyed prematurely, the loan will not be recovered.

But overall, the risk is very small.

The road to destruction in Gujiacheng's previous life is still two or three years away, and it's still early.

Now the upgrade speed is faster than in the previous life. If you sell weapons, the places you come and go are also different. These will inevitably cause a butterfly effect, and you will probably not encounter the enemies from the previous life again.

However, the probability of encountering other crises is not small. In the wasteland world, nothing is absolute.

But Xiang Yang still believes that this risk is within the tolerance range.

Regardless of whether you are doing business or doing anything else, there are always risks, and everyone must be able to bear the risks.

"City Lord, he seems to be too kind to us." Someone in the Gujiacheng control room said.

"We are old friends. We have known each other since we were in Novice Continent. At that time, you hadn't even come here yet, so we were just the couple."

Gu Mingcheng's wife said: "Have you seen that battering ram in front of Shenlong City? It looks very similar to our brutal collision. It was my husband who helped start it."

"Our friendship is still okay." Gu Mingcheng also explained.

Others nodded.

Helping others to obtain urban combat weapons is not something that ordinary people would do. These things are still reasonable. The two urban combat weapons are indeed similar, but the one in Shenlong City is larger and has slightly different appearance patterns.

"Thank you so much, little brother Xiang." Gu Mingcheng finally replied.

Although borrowing money to be a middleman is very risky, they are too poor now and with such a hugely profitable business, he feels that they still have to give it a try.

Xiang Yang lent Gu Mingcheng 1,800 energy blocks. If he paid it back in half a year, he would have to pay back 2,000 energy blocks. If he paid it back after one year, he would have to pay back 2,500 energy blocks.

The interest rate can be said to be very low, but this interest rate is not the focus, business is.

If Gujiacheng can successfully enter the county level before Shenlong City leaves the Mohe Trading Ground, then Xiang Yang can directly hand over the entire market in Mohe to Gujiacheng.

It is equivalent to finding a long-term, stable middleman.

Not only can you sell firearms, but you can also sell vehicles through consignments and agents. The fewer the better, this way the manufacturer will be safer.

Now the vehicle manufacturing plant has started construction. Two months ago, Xiang Yang bought dozens of engines and braking systems. They plan to handle all other components themselves.

The first trial cars are already out, and after a while, they can start selling them.

There is another team that is dismantling tractors, which they will also produce in the future, and they will become a full product manufacturer in terms of vehicles.

"Let me give you another map of the Conch Port Trading Ground. The Crocodile Valley Trading Ground was not very difficult in the past, and there are many cities from Terra there." Xiang Yang also gave the map there to Gu Mingcheng.

Going from Mohe to Conch Port is further than going to Crocodile Valley. Xiang Yang is unlikely to go there. There are town-level trading places and many new human cities, which is perfect for Gujiacheng.

This way the market will be bigger.

There are also several cities that are frequented by Terra's new humans, but I have only heard of them in my previous life. They are far away and I don't know how to travel, so I won't mention them.

The firearms agency business was quickly completed.

A week later, Gu Jiacheng got the crystal before leaving. Xiang Yang continued to produce in the trading yard. A large amount of inventory was taken away by Gu Mingcheng, and they also needed to replenish it again.

The following day-to-day activities are basically routine matters, including the production of weapons and vehicles, as well as mining. The time spent in the trading yard has also increased significantly.

Two months passed quickly.

On this day, Shenlong City was resting in the trading yard when a city from the other side came rushing over, the speed already exceeded thirty kilometers.

Entering the cities surrounding the trading venue is rarely so fast.

"Reporting to the city lord, River Valley City has released a message. It was dictated by their city lord and issued by their chief warriors." Gao Hongzhan looked at the bulletin board on duty. "It seems that their city is about to be disbanded. I hope that cities interested in accepting their citizens can contact them."

them."

Gao Hongzhan was very confused and couldn't understand what this meant. How could the city be dissolved?

"A city lord is about to die." Xiang Yang gave him the answer.
