Recruit black physique to start practice in the wasteland

Chapter 75 Harvesting (He Baiyin, Meng Bangzi 2/5)

Hua Scorpion has actually confirmed that the battle has been won.

The reason why I asked such a question was because I subconsciously didn't want people to pay attention to Qu Jianlei's weak state.

However, if she can think of this, it is impossible for others not to think of it... Is it possible to kill two wolf kings in a row without paying a price?

Many people have noticed that there is something wrong with that man's state.

But Qu Jianlei's viciousness in killing people before was also deeply imprinted in everyone's impression.

No one dared to bet on whether he had the ability to kill another person.

Zhu'er who can kill a wolf king with a knife is a real ruthless person, not to mention that he has sniped a wolf king before.

The skinny man was the first to react, "It's all right, the two wolf kings are dead, there is no way they will come again."

"My boss is tired," Hua Xiezi said directly, "Don't bother him, tell me if you have something to say."

Heitian's weakness cannot be concealed from others, it is better for Daming to admit it generously.

If you don't believe me, who dares to bet, can my boss still kill people?

"This... we need to discuss the harvest on the battlefield," the skinny man said frankly, "especially the two wolf kings."

Accidentally encountering wolves is a great disaster, but at the same time...it also means that there may be huge gains.

Risk and reward have always been directly proportional, as evidenced by the wolf corpses all over the ground.

The meat of the frost wolf is edible, but the taste is sour and the taste is astringent.

It is also because it is a mutant beast, so someone accepts it.

Wolf skin can be used as simple armor, and it is worth some money... In fact, if you don't dislike it, you can cook it and eat it.

In any case, no matter how inconspicuous the income, as long as the amount has accumulated to a certain level, it is not something that ordinary people can ignore.

There were almost 2,000 corpses of frost wolves at the scene, and nearly a thousand half-dead.

There is no doubt that this is a huge gain.

Nearly one-fifth of the wolf corpses were killed by Qu Jianlei and Hua Xiezi.

This is not an exaggeration at all. Regardless of the small amount of ammunition they use, the kill rate is really high.

But after all, the two wolf kings are the most valuable.

The first wolf king is the real wolf king, and the second wolf king... According to everyone's analysis, this should be the alternate wolf king.

The battle for the wolf king is cruel and disorderly, but there are also pre-determined examples.

This should be the case with this alternate wolf king. If the wolf king is dead, it must take revenge, otherwise it will not be enough to convince the crowd.

Also because its status was established in advance, once it died, no other wolves could come out to fight for the throne for the time being.

So the defeat of the wolves is inevitable.

This is what everyone analyzed after the war. Whether it is true or not is hard to say.

In short, the battle is won, and the next step is to distribute the spoils. On this point, no one will be ambiguous.

Carrying wolf corpses is physical work, but Qu Jianlei really doesn't want to move a finger.

Hua Xiezi asked him, and immediately decided to sell all the wolf corpses, leaving only the corpse of the candidate wolf king.

For the corpse of the huge wolf king, other teams also put forward purchase requirements.

It is true that Qu Jianlei sniped and killed the Wolf King, but it was also the result of everyone's concerted efforts.

Whether it's lending a sniper rifle or basically determining the position of the wolf king, others have also made contributions.

They hoped to buy the body of the wolf king at a "relatively reasonable" price.

As for the alternate wolf king, it was purely Qu Jianlei's effort to kill him, and no one would open their eyes to make a suggestion.

Hua Xiezi is not only a sharpshooter, but also has a way of doing business, otherwise she would not become the core figure of the small group of three.

She felt that the price offered by the other party for the Wolf King was a bit low, a mere five thousand silver dollars was not enough, at least ten thousand would be enough.

She believes that regardless of the use value, the decorativeness of the wolf king's fur is enough to make it a luxury.

On the other side, it said that the leather was broken or something, which seriously affected the price.

If it was an alternate wolf king, firstly, no one would share the profit, and secondly, the fur was relatively intact, so it could be sold for 10,000 silver dollars.

In the end, it was Cindy who stood up and explained to her that the market in Zhousan settlement was almost the same.

That is to say, there are enough wolves under the command of the wolf king, and their strength is strong enough, otherwise the price may be low.

In the end, Hua Scorpion gave up the ownership of the Wolf King for a price of 6,000.

Cindy wasn't of much help with the deal, but she was familiar with the price of ordinary frost wolves.

Generally speaking, the price of a Frost Wolf fluctuates around ten silver dollars.

But this time everyone has killed too many frost wolves, and the price will definitely drop.

So the purchase price offered by others was three silver dollars, anyway, the hunting cost of the two of Qu Jianlei was much lower than this.

Thanks to Cindy who informed Huaxiezi of the real market, but even so, the deal was still very difficult to negotiate.

The acquirer said that because it is a bulk purchase, when we sell in bulk, we must also sell at a discount.

However, Huaxie's attitude is that, of course, large sales cannot pursue huge profits.

She even said that at worst, we would take the wolf carcasses to the Zhousan settlement to sell them.

Regardless of whether Hua Xiezi can enter Zhousan or not, just Cindy's identity as a resident of the settlement can guarantee one person.

Coupled with the words of Cindy's daughter, both of them, Qu Jianlei, can enter the settlement.

The final negotiated price was six silver dollars per wolf carcass, double the original price.

Hua Xiezi and Qu Jianlei killed 600 wolves, and the price difference alone reached 1,800 silver dollars.

The price wouldn't be so beautiful without Cindy's voice.

Anyway, after this battle, the cost they spent was almost five hundred silver dollars, mainly due to the excessive consumption of ammunition.

One of the biggest consumptions was the final shooting of the vehicle-mounted machine gun, which consumed too much bullets.

And the profit from this battle is basically about 10,000 silver dollars, which can really be regarded as huge profits.

However, the forces that bought the wolf king's body said that they couldn't come up with so many silver dollars, and they would wait until Zhousan's settlement before trading.

Huaxie made such a large amount of money, so he simply gave Cindy a one-hundred-dollar silver note as a reward.

Others looked a little puzzled, when did these two get along so well?

Early the next morning, everyone began to clean the battlefield.

Hua Xiezi rented a suite and let Qu Jianlei sleep soundly in the inner room, while she slept in the outer room while being vigilant.

Generally speaking, the supply station is relatively safe, but Qu Jianlei slept for a day and a night.

It was just dawn when he got up, he just felt refreshed, ready to go on the road after a big meal.

Cindy has already asked for leave from the supply station.

Although her income is not high, she has the care of her deceased husband and comrades-in-arms, and lives relatively freely in the supply station.

Qu Jianlei confirmed with her again - you already have one hundred silver dollars, are you sure you want to go on an adventure with us?

However, Cindy saw it very clearly. One hundred silver dollars can help us for a while, but can it help us for a lifetime?

Seriously, she cannot accompany her daughter for a long time, and she is also worried about her daughter's growth.

Hua Xiezi told Qu Jianlei in a low voice: This is the place where her partner died and her family property was taken away...

This kind of sad place, probably a woman doesn't want to stay here, right?

Only then did Qu Jianlei formally accept Cindy's "joining".

After driving for a day and a night, they finally arrived at Zhousan settlement. Outside the city, they met Cindy's daughter Claire.

This is a short and stocky girl, twelve years old, only a little over 1.4 meters tall, but she is very strong.

There was an unruly light in the girl's eyes, and she seemed to have her own opinion.

Her attitude towards her mother was fine, but she was quite indifferent towards Qu Jianlei and Hua Xiezi.

But after seeing the huge wolf king's corpse, her attitude towards Qu Jianlei changed drastically, and she became much more friendly towards Hua Xiezi.

An adventurer who can kill the wolf king, and with a knife, satisfies all little girls' longing for a strong man.

The identities of the mother and daughter's settlement are still there, so it is of course not a problem to bring Qu Jianlei to the city.

However, at the gate of the city, two trucks carrying the wolf king were surrounded by people on the spot.

These are well-informed forces who know that a supply station was besieged by wolves the night before yesterday.

Everyone knows that the deal for the big wolf king has been negotiated, but... isn't there a small one?

Fortunately, Cindy lived in the Zhousan settlement for a long time, and she said very simply: We want to enter the settlement to sell.

In the wasteland, strong strength is the best protection. Without Qu Jianlei and Hua Xiezi, Cindy would not dare to speak like this.

Everyone who gathered around now knows that these two killed the two wolf kings, allowing the people at the supply station to escape from death.

Facing such a powerful existence, who would dare to chatter?

The guards at the gate of the city didn't even let the two take off their masks, let alone check their identities, and let them in directly.

In their words, this is the hero who saved many survivors, and his identity doesn't matter.

If they hadn't killed the wolf king at the supply station and defeated the frost wolves, the surrounding wild camps would also have suffered bad luck.

When the pack of wolves has no leader, it will no longer maintain such a large pack of wolves. Once dispersed, the camp in the wild will be much easier to defend.

The people in the settlement look down on the wildlings in the wild camp, but they are all human after all, aren't they?

If there are no adventurers in the wild, the safety and supplies of the settlement cannot be guaranteed.

So the attitude of the guards is easy to understand. Off-road light trucks can enter the city with guns and ammunition.

They were even quite polite to Cindy.

After entering the city, Cindy took the two of them to the cold storage, rented a compartment to put the wolf king down, and then went to collect another fee for the wolf king.

There wasn't any pretense of beeping in the face, who would take the risk of provoking the master who could kill the Frost Wolf King?

Then Cindy went to Yaman and said that he would auction off the wolf king tomorrow-the wasteland also has similar rules to ensure the maximum benefit.

Then she led the two of them to make big purchases, but what made Qu Jianlei a little upset was that the energy blocks here were very expensive.

When he was in the Hongwu settlement, he bought energy blocks which were equivalent to seventy silver dollars a piece, but here it actually costs one hundred and ten silver dollars.

For this price, the energy block store still said: It is for the sake of killing the wolf king that you have given a discount!

—————

Chapter 76 Treatment of Experts

Qu Jianlei was quite dissatisfied with the price of energy blocks, this time he planned to buy 50 energy blocks.

This time, 5,500 silver dollars went out, and the wolf king was beaten for nothing?

If you buy it at Hong Wu, 3,500 silver dollars is enough, and this one mile away... is it short of two thousand silver dollars?

It is true that he used gold to buy it at Hong Wu's settlement, but the price difference is too big, right?

He glanced at Huaxie, who couldn't help but said, "Shouldn't the energy block be a hundred silver dollars?"

"Where did you get the news?" The shopkeeper was also puzzled, "It's normal for a retail price of 120 or 130."

Cindy hurriedly explained, "You may purchase through different channels, and Zhou San's purchase is at this price."

"It's not just Zhou San, it's like this in the entire Zhou character settlement," the director of the energy block store replied simply.

He didn't question the other party's words, but said, "If you think it's too expensive, you can use the original channel."

"The above is the price given to us. If I sell it cheap, I have to make up for the shortfall."

Hua Xiezi's eyes rolled, "Is it feasible for us to buy more and resell at a higher price?"

"That's up to you," the supervisor replied indifferently, "Anyway, I'll give you a discount, just this once."

Qu Jianlei and Hua Xiezi exchanged glances, and then said, "Then let's discuss it again."

After walking out of the store, he couldn't help asking Cindy, "Why is the price of energy blocks so expensive?"

Cindy gave him a puzzled look, "Not expensive, right? Energy blocks are really in demand, and the official price you mentioned is simply impossible."

"How could this be?" Hua Scorpion frowned, "Could it be that their energy block is bigger?"

Cindy shook her head, "It can't be big, laser guns eat energy blocks... You don't come from a settlement outside the universe, do you?"

"No," Hua Scorpion replied simply, "It's just that we bought energy blocks before, and the price was one hundred silver dollars."

Cindy didn't doubt her words. Her deceased husband was a squad leader before he died, so she knew that there were settlements besides Zhou Zi.

But this is all she knows. It is said that it is difficult to come here in the settlements with other prefixes.

So she asked, "If this is the case, why don't you buy from that channel?"

"That person is dead," Hua Scorpion replied calmly, "The others... we can't trust them."

"Then there is probably a saying in it," Cindy didn't doubt this saying, isn't it normal for people to die in the wasteland?

She didn't ask around indiscriminately, but just suggested in a polite manner, "But you can take advantage of this discount and earn a little bit."

Qu Jianlei frowned. Tomorrow, another wolf king will be auctioned, and a sum of money should be raised.

The next moment, Hua Xiezi spoke up, "Let's find a place to buy some books first."

Think of a piece! Qu Jianlei nodded secretly when he heard the words, teaming up with Hua Xiezi would indeed save a lot of worry.

With Cindy leading the way, it is different after all, and she used to have a bit of identity, knowing a little more than ordinary residents.

In fact, she also had some doubts in her heart: the other party actually gave priority to buying books, and there might be something wrong with the origin.

However, during her years of desperation, she has acquired enough wisdom to survive: Don't ask about things that shouldn't be asked!

Anyway, no one has ever given her a hundred silver dollars at a time, and she will keep her mouth shut just for this reward.

After a lot of work, they actually bought more than 200 books at a very favorable price.

What is especially rare is that I actually bought some reference books, including books such as knowledge on repairing robotic arms.

Qu Jianlei was immediately attracted, and even sat in the car and watched it.

He has not been very satisfied with the modification of the transport mecha, and the degree of sturdiness is not bad. The key is that the energy conversion rate is too low.

If he hadn't discovered a geothermal cave by chance, he and Hua Xiezi might not be able to get out of the mountain with just that little energy block.

Seeing him flipping through a book on maintenance knowledge, Cindy raised her eyebrows in surprise: This person even knows this?

In the area inhabited by Zhou characters, those who have this kind of professional skills must have inheritance, and they will definitely not leak it easily.

The saying "the apprentice of the church starved to death of the master" is almost deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in the wasteland.

Since you can rely on craftsmanship and survive without taking risks...and not badly, why cultivate competitors?

The next moment, she remembered what she had to do, "Master Huang Xiezi, can I move out of Zhou San's resident status?"

"The status of moving out of the settlement?" Hua Xiezi raised her eyebrows in surprise.

She is not Qu Jianlei, and she is very familiar with this set, "You can decide for yourself, where do you plan to move in?"

The identity of the settlement is very difficult to come by, but it is possible to change the identity between the settlements with the same prefix.

Various environments and conditions vary significantly between settlements.

Some people need to change places for their own development or other reasons, which is understandable-talent flow must be allowed!

It's just that it's easy to talk about moving out. When you move in, you'll probably have to pay some fees, unless it's an obvious "downward move".

"I don't have a place I like," Cindy replied bluntly. "Where the two adults suggested, that's where it is."

She just wanted to escape from this city. Anyway, there are formal procedures, so it is not difficult to move to another place.

"We don't have any suggestions," Hua Xiezi said bluntly. She knew that the other party meant to show loyalty by saying this.

The orphan and widow left their familiar place and wandered around the world with two people of unknown origin, even taking their identities with them.

This is a bet that the two of them will not act badly!

So all she can say is, "It doesn't matter if you don't move out, you can wait a few years and come back with your daughter."

"I don't want to stay in this disgusting place anymore," Cindy said lightly, "We want to change our environment and start our lives again."

"Then let's talk about it at that time," Hua Xiezi felt that the other party was also an adult, so he could just leave his suggestion as far as he could.

But in the end, she couldn't help but say, "Stay with us all the time, the risk is great."

Without raising her eyelids, Cindy replied flatly, "Where is there no risk?"

Claire didn't have any rejection of leaving Zhou San, but rather looked forward to it.

"You don't need to go through the move-out procedure? You still need to spend money... we can be wild adventurers."

Seeing her eagerness to try, Qu Jianlei suddenly said, "If you don't wear the sword properly, it's already a river and lake when you go out."

Is a life of adventure really attractive to teenagers?

But Cindy obviously didn't think so, and scolded her with a sullen face, and said something like "I'm doing it for your own good".

Claire made a grimace and said nothing more. Obviously, this rebellious girl still has some respect for her mother.

When going through the procedures for moving out, I encountered some twists and turns, and the person in charge actually persuaded Cindy to think twice.

Cindy was quite surprised by this persuasion, she felt that she was not so popular.

Sure enough, the other party then suggested that since you have come into contact with the strong man, instead of following along, it is better to keep the other party.

Zhousan settlement promised that if Qu Jianlei and his wife really want to move in, all handling fees will be waived, and the poll tax will be exempted for ten years.

The head tax is collected in every settlement. Most of the regulations are free for children under the age of ten, and half price for those between the age of ten and sixteen.

This has the meaning of encouraging births, but for most residents, the poll tax of one silver dollar per year is really not cheap.

Claire has already been charged poll tax for two years. Although it is half price, it is still one silver dollar.

Cindy works alone to support two people, and has to pay poll tax. It is conceivable that the pressure is great.

Qu Jianlei couldn't bear it any longer, "Do you think we are ten silver dollars short?"

"Gun licenses...but they also cost money," said the other party with a good attitude.

The two of Qu Jianlei didn't charge any fees when they entered the city this time, but it was only because of him that they made contributions and were exempted.

To put it simply, if you want to have various powers in the settlement, you have to pay various fees.

Hua Scorpion asked calmly, "What if we don't have a proof of moving out?"

"There is no proof of moving out...it's difficult," said the opposite party, a little embarrassed.

He didn't think that the other party definitely didn't have a certificate of moving out, and the master who could buy energy blocks for a hundred silver dollars would be short of a certificate?

That's right, Zhousan's settlement is really not big, and for those who are well-informed, there is no privacy at all.

He thinks that the other party is just concealing their background, which is not uncommon—a real master doesn't want to be disturbed.

So he said frankly, "If the two of you can guarantee ten years of service in the Zhou Sancheng Guards..."

"Not only can the certificate of moving out be waived, but we can also provide housing for free."

"Of course, not everything will be labored by the two of you. Usually, you will check occasionally, and you will be hired for major events."

These people have a good understanding of the mentality of the strong. The strong will not be afraid of trouble, but no one likes trouble.

Wasteland version of the talent introduction plan? Qu Jianlei's thinking was a little divergent.

But this is really not a surprise, this place was originally a place where the strong are respected.

The identity of the settlement is difficult for ordinary survivors to obtain, but those who are truly capable do not need to worry.

For a moment, he was in a daze. At that time, he was in Hongsi, and it was very difficult to obtain the status of a settlement!

But now, someone actually took the initiative to deliver it to the door.

"Let's avoid it," Hua Scorpion said, "We just like to wander around..."

"It's really wishful thinking that a small settlement wants to tie us up for ten years."

Claire's eyes were filled with stares, this kind of happy life was what she wanted to pursue.

Although her father is great, but he is too submissive, and he will be blamed if he dies. She doesn't want such a useless life.

The other party was not angry, but said lightly, "Cindy, I have always been good to you, I hope you will not be so impulsive."

Cindy replied blankly, "It's true that you never bullied me, but I don't owe you anything either."
