Two Cities: I am building a mecha in Pi City

Two minutes ago, in Bensuo's grocery store.

A very fat middle-aged man with beards on his temples put down the Hex magnifying glass in his hand and shouted into the back room:

"Ike, has the pocket watch that the customer sold us today been repaired? Ike, Ike! You brat, where did you go when you haven't seen anyone for a while..."

The fat man cursed and squeezed out from the counter, preparing to walk into the house.

At this time, he just heard the doorbell ring, and a familiar voice came into his ears: "Bensuo, it seems that your temper has been getting worse recently."

"Fander? Why are you here again, you old guy?" Bensuo scratched his head with receding hairline and snorted coldly, "Didn't I just give you my share last month? Are you here again? Am I selling junk?”

Fandel snorted, but he was not angry because of Bensuo's unkind tone, "You old bastard, I'm here just for you this time."

"for me?"

"Do you know them?" Fandel pointed to the young man and woman who were talking about something outside the door.

Bensuo squinted and looked through the window for a long time, "I don't know, who is that?"

"I came from the city, specifically looking for you, saying I wanted to buy something from you."

Fandel pulled out the chair in front of the counter and sat down. He picked up the wine bottle on the table and poured himself a glass of wine. "Have you provoked anyone in the upper city recently?"

"What you said, it's not like you don't understand me. I don't even go out of the store very often. How could I possibly offend people from the upper city?"

Ben Suo scratched the beard on his face and chuckled, "Maybe the reputation of the things I sell has spread to the upper city."

"A bunch of tatty names?" Fandel picked up the cup and took a sip, looking around the store, "Didn't I tell you, how can you buy so many tatty things every day and sell them?"

"Hey! Don't tell me, I actually sold it for a lot of money a while ago." Ben Suo laughed, "It's just a piece of broken glass that Ike picked up in the garbage. It sold for 50 A silver wheel! Do you dare to believe it?"

He stretched out five fingers and shook them in front of Fandel's face. "The boy also said that if I can find a complete one, the price will be just a little more. I should be able to sell it for a few pieces of gold."

"I feel like you're in trouble." Fandel couldn't help but hold his forehead and sigh, "I guess that fragment is not a simple thing, and the two people from the city outside should be here for this... Just tell them. "

As soon as Fandel finished speaking, the bell at the door rang again, and Li Lin and Caitlin walked in.

"Welcome, what do you two need?" A "bright" smile appeared on Bensuo's face, "Our store has a full range of goods, such as various Hex technology supplies, etc., all of them are of the highest quality..."

"Crystal." Li Lin spat out a word, interrupting Bensuo's introduction. "I'm looking for a complete blue crystal that will emit light. A friend of mine came here before and he bought a fragment."

"Oh, that person turned out to be your friend. I remember it very clearly. It's just that you have to wait for a while for that kind of crystal..."

Bensuo rubbed his hands and smiled. With that kind of philistine expression, any normal person would be able to tell what he wanted to express.

Need to pay more.

"Tell me, how much does it cost?" Li Lin said in a tone that said he was not short of money.

Anyway, it's not my money spent, the Gila Mann family will reimburse it.

He glanced secretly at Caitlin beside him, and suddenly understood why Jace had spent so much money on a piece without bargaining.

Bensuo rubbed his chin and hesitated for a moment, then raised a finger:

"Then, a crystal and a sea of ​​gold?"

"Deal, if there are any fragments, try to collect them. I will pay... provided you don't fool me with the rags."

Oops! The price is set low...

Seeing Li Lin agreeing so readily, Ben Suo felt a pain in his heart, as if a large piece of meat had been missed in his mouth.

He opened his mouth, wanting to regret it and raise the price again, but the look in Fandel's eyes made him give up the idea.

For a visitor like this from an uptown family, it's best not to go too far.

As a businessman, Benso also knows this truth very well.

It’s a good idea to eat once and twice to get a repeat customer.

The deal was concluded smoothly, but this was not the best result Li Lin wanted.

"I heard from my friend that you can only get crystals after the Evolution Day?"

"This..." Benso looked at Fander hesitantly and explained: "During the Evolution Days, Piltover's law enforcement was very strict. It is not impossible to get crystals, but the risk is too great."

"Are you... planning to steal?" Caitlin said with a surprised look on her face.

She knew very well that some items that were not allowed to be circulated in the market or that some stolen items from the Shangshan family would be sold on the black market in Zaun.

But what she didn't expect was that the bosses who bought stolen goods would not only recycle and sell them, but would also send their own people to steal them directly.

"Otherwise, this lady." Bensuo felt a little funny, "We can't just create one for you out of thin air, right?"

"Can it be faster? I want to get the goods before the evolution day." Li Lin asked again.

"Oh, you see how light your words are." Bensuo sighed deliberately, "Now there are law enforcement officers everywhere in the streets and alleys of the upper city. My people can't take the risk of going to jail..."

It seems there is still not enough money.

Li Lin stretched out two fingers and directly interrupted Bensuo, who was still complaining, "Two gold seas and one complete crystal."

"5."

"Two."

Ben Suo gritted his teeth and said, "4 pieces, the price is already very low..."

"Two."

This brat, who looked so wealthy just now, has become so stingy now!

Bensuo cursed secretly in his heart, but still had an apologetic expression on his face, "Three coins, it really can't be any lower."

Fander and Caitlin couldn't help but cover their faces.

Li Lin thought about it for a while, "Okay, 3 coins is 3 coins, but this is the price before the evolution day. If you don't find it, after the evolution day, the transaction price of 1 gold sea will be the same."

"...Okay." Bensuo squeezed out a word, "It's less than half a month until the evolution day. You can come back in a week, okay?"

"Well, don't let me down."

After discussing the deal, Li Lin nodded to Fander, and then walked out of the store with Caitlin.

"Okay, old guy, I've made a lot of money from this deal." Fandel smiled and patted the depressed Benso on the shoulder, "Then should I pay more for the next month?"

"Fuck you, old bastard, you come here to suck my blood every day!" Bensuo cursed and pushed him away, "This brat is really cruel. If it were the same brat from the upper city last time, At least I can earn a few more gold coins!"

"It's good to make money. Take a look at my tavern, and you won't see gold coins."

Fandel picked up the cup and drank it all in one gulp, then stood up and walked to the door of the store, stopping.

Bensuo paid attention to the man who suddenly became quiet, and immediately stopped his playful expression: "What happened?"

"On the way I brought them here, someone was following us." Fandel's tone was solemn, and he turned back to meet Bensuo's eyes.

"Although they are not coming for me, this is a dark alley..."

Fandel didn't finish what he said, but as a close friend who had been through life and death for many years, Benso easily understood the meaning behind his words.

"I see."
