"Ghost market, is it an underground black market?" Hua Qianyan couldn't help but ask with some curiosity when she heard this word for the first time. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Yes and not quite. Fat Ball tilted his head slightly and thought about it, organized the language, and explained the 'ghost market' in as straightforward language as possible.

It all started 600 years ago.

In 2012, after the end of the world, the social order suddenly collapsed, legal norms were wantonly trampled on, the state apparatus was gradually paralyzed, and the monetary system collapsed instantly...... For survivors, none of this matters, staying alive is the only requirement.

However, if you want to live, you can't do without these external factors. Human beings are social animals, and as long as they live, they have all kinds of needs: the first thing is to eat and drink, people are iron and steel, even if they are supernatural, she has to eat; in second place are weapons and medicines, not all survivors are superpowers, the vast majority of people are ordinary people, they must constantly improve their strength in order to live longer, and the third is a safe place to live...... In fourth place......

And how do you get these things?

The first way is to rob other people's goods, but you must have strong enough force value to not only successfully grab things, but also have enough strength to ensure that you are not robbed by others.

The second way is to go to the occupied area to fight the zombies? This can also be available, but you must have enough strength and absolute luck to not only find the supplies, but also to break out of the zombie siege safely.

Option 3: Pick it up by luck?! This may not be possible, and the chance of picking up food or daily necessities in a ruin is less than or equal to zero.

……

There are many ways to obtain supplies, but the survivors have found that the safest way is actually to trade, of course, not simply 'buying', but the most primitive barter, that is, exchanging what they do not lack for the time being for urgently needed materials.

However, this method is not absolutely safe, after all, there are still many people who take advantage of the troubled times to do business without capital (such as those who prefer the first way), and it is polite to take it by force, and it is not uncommon to seek money and kill people.

Especially when an ordinary person suddenly gets a strange treasure (such as route three), and he wants to sell this treasure, then he must be prepared to lose his materials and lose his life.

“…… In this situation, in order to make the base more stable, and in order to prevent the survivors from killing each other over some supplies, the creator god stepped in to build a private exchange. "Fat Ball's eloquence is very good, telling the story of hundreds of years ago.

"This exchange is a ghost market?" Hua Qianyan endured her temperament and listened to the nonsense of the fat ball, and in the end, she couldn't help it, and asked directly.

"That's right, it's Ghost City. "Fat Ball was talking to the fullest, and was suddenly interrupted by the master, and suddenly a little unhappy, and secretly said in his heart, well, it's better to tell a story to the stupid flower, although that guy likes to quarrel with it, but in the process of telling the story, he will never interrupt at will, but his face is full of interest. As a storyteller, Fatball certainly loves this kind of attentive, engaged listener.

Glancing at Hua Qianyan in displeasure, Fat Ball continued, "This ghost market does not mean that there is anything strange about the exchange, or that there is anything wrong with the things traded, but that all the people who trade through the ghost market appear in a vague identity, and as an intermediary, the 'ghost market' ensures the safety of buyers and sellers on the one hand, and on the other hand, it will also promise not to investigate and disclose the true information of both parties." Of course, if there is an unsightly attempt to sabotage the transaction of the ghost market, or to provoke trouble, then it will be severely punished by the ghost market and the Cao family behind it. ”

Who is Cao Yuan, the creator god, in the eyes of the survivors, he is an absolute authority. If he releases it, whoever doesn't want to die will disobey.

Hua Qianyan nodded, and said secretly, that is, the Cao family has the strength to do such a thing, if it is replaced by other people, I am afraid that they will not be able to suppress those rebellious abilities and warriors who have fought out from the zombie tide, mutant beast herds, and cannibalism.

"With the ghost market, the social order of the base is really much better, and even the initiator Cao Yuan has also exchanged for a lot of precious treasures. Fat Ball paused, and seeing that Hua Qianyan didn't intervene again, he squinted his eyes with satisfaction, and then said: "Later, the base developed into a city, the city expanded into a large region, and several regions were connected into a piece and finally integrated into a unified new continent of Asia, and then the new continent formed a ruling government, elected the first consul, and introduced the new continental law, the new social order was slowly established, and people's lives gradually stabilized. Many wartime expediency measures were outlawed one by one, but only the ghost market was preserved. ”

It is understandable that when society is stable, people's needs will be greater, and the transaction volume of various materials will increase. Hua Qianyan felt that this was normal.

"Up to now, the ghost market has become a trading platform for Chinese people around the world, and the exchange has also been transformed into an online entity at the beginning. Fat Ball talked for a long time, and only then did he get to the point, "Since you don't want to reveal your identity, the safest way is to sell it through the ghost market." ”

After a slight pause, Fat Ball said the transaction method of the ghost market, "The first one, you can entrust the ghost market to sell on your behalf, however, after the transaction is successful, you must deduct 5% of the total transaction price as a commission; ”

"The second option is good. Hua Qianyan nodded busily.

"I haven't finished talking yet," Fat Ball glanced at Hua Qianyan angrily, and said, "It's true that members of the ghost market don't have to pay commissions, but they have to pay a membership fee of 200,000." ”

"So expensive?" Hua Qianyan said, you know, the purchasing power of Singapore dollars is about the same as RMB, and the average salary of residents in City C last year was only 3,500 yuan per month.

"Is this still expensive? Hehe, let me tell you, this membership fee, but you have to pay it every year!" Fat Ball stopped, turned his head to look at Hua Qianyan, and asked, "Which of these two methods are you going to choose?"

Hua Qianyan thought for a moment, and did not directly answer the question of the fat ball, but asked coldly: "Can the ghost market really guarantee the confidentiality of the identities of both parties to the transaction? What if the manager of the ghost market takes a fancy to the goods sold and wants to 'intercept' the middle and directly kill the seller?"

It's not that Hua Qianyan is psychologically dark, Dad said that there is no absolute loyalty in the world, and the so-called loyalty is just that the bargaining chips for betrayal are too low. In the same way, the ghost market may not be absolutely fair and selfless, and the so-called justice may be too little temptation.

"Eh, your imagination is too rich, right?" Fat Ball slapped his forehead, looked at Hua Qianyan exaggeratedly, and said: "Do you think that a platform that can't even fulfill its promise can survive for six hundred years?" Or do you think that the Cao family is such a villain, and they don't even want a minimum of face?"

To put it mildly, the Cao family may not be able to look at the things that are traded.

Hua Qianyan was not persuaded by a few rhetorical questions from the fat ball, there is nothing wrong with being careful, there are some things, she is better to be cautious. The money saved did not come to hand, but it caused a lot of trouble.

She looked at the fat ball fixedly, and said seriously: "Is the ghost market really safe?

Seeing that Hua Qianyan was serious, Fat Ball also suppressed his smile, and searched for information again.

Hua Qianyan beside it saw that the sun came out, and took out the big black umbrella from the space that was so dirty that it was slag - there is no way, the end of the world has changed the earth's environment, and even the atmosphere has been affected, and the ozone layer has undergone abnormal changes, which cannot completely block ultraviolet rays, so that people in the wild must do a good job of protection, even when the sun is not very strong. And this big black umbrella is one of the best protective tools developed by the new era.

In this way, a man and a cat stood quietly on the side of the path with a big black umbrella, and the iron birch tree in the distance was in the midst of fierce evolution.

After waiting for half an hour, Fat Ball's motionless eyes turned, and said, "Huh, I just hacked into Cao Jie's computer and found some information about the ghost market." Rest assured, this place is really safe and basically doesn't happen in those situations that you think. ”

Fortunately, he met Cao Hongyu and Cao Jie at Base Nine that day, and indirectly knew that they were most likely members of the Cao family, so Fat Ball had the target of the invasion, otherwise, it would have to take a long time to investigate how many Cao family children there were in East China, and then it would take a longer time to determine their identity in the family, and finally it would be able to choose the most core person to investigate.

Fortunately, it had just absorbed a high-level crystal nucleus yesterday, which made all the functions of its body nearly ten times stronger, and even increased its original various skills and specialties by nearly ten times. Otherwise, with its previous abilities, it would not have been able to find the location of its target so easily and invade.

To be honest, until now, Fat Ball doesn't understand whether his own promotion is an upgrade, it's different from the master, and the master has a system responsible for explaining. As for it, Dr. Fang, who created it, has long since passed away, and he didn't leave a manual before he left, and all changes can only be explored and tasted by itself.

But fortunately, since this period of time, every change in it has been good, the strength and hardness of the body have gradually increased, the computer chip in the brain has been updated rapidly, and it can also control various animal genes in the body at will......

Now the fat ball is far stronger than when it first woke up more than many times, think about the original tumbling laboratory made its four paw nails broken, a python hit it seriously injured, alas~~ The past is unbearable, the fat ball sighed: the shotgun has finally been replaced by a cannon, and there is a tendency to quickly replace it with a laser cannon.

"Oh, well, I believe you!"

Hua Qianyan nodded, in this world, except for herself, Fat Ball is the only partner she trusts unconditionally.

Shotguns are not the only ones that change guns.

Hua Qianyan and Fat Ball swayed through the busy construction site, greeted the residents they knew well, and then came to the iron birch tree at the edge of the air raid cover.

It's just that when they saw the severely deformed iron birch tree, they were stunned.
