Chapter 59: The Temptation (Part II)
Liu Guohui, a former colonel of the Army Field Army, was expelled from the army for unknown reasons and later joined the Crossing Group. Of the 500 men, he was the only one who had been professionally trained, so he was the only one to infiltrate the mission.
At this time, he was dressed in a short gray cloth robe, tattered but clean, with a hat that covered his short hair, and a small clay pot on his back.
The aunt in front of her walked like the wind, her face was ruddy, her eyes were bright, and she was carrying a vegetable basket the size of a basin but she was as light as nothing, not at all like a peasant woman in feudal society.
I saw her walk through the city gate, take out an identity card and show it to the soldiers, then dip it in the ink, scratch it on the register, leave a seal, and then go directly into the city.
Liu Guohui saw clearly in the back, learned her movements, and was about to enter the city.
"Wait!"
Liu Guohui's body stiffened, turned around, and there was already a humble smile on his face, nodding and not speaking.
The soldier looked at him strangely and said, "What are you doing?" Don't make faces, it's not in shape yet. What do you have in your jar? I don't know if I have to check when I enter the city, and I don't allow insects to enter the city. β
Liu Guohui's expression froze, he stretched out his hand and gestured a few times, turned around and put the spy down and opened it directly.
The two soldiers looked at each other, and one was surprised: "What a beautiful meat, like a jewel, it seems to be shining, and the grade must be very high!" Where did you get that? β
Before Liu Guohui could answer, the other said: "Shut up, your first day as a soldier, the ingredients are special information, and people want to use them to support their families, how can they tell you directly?" β
Then he turned his head and said, "You go." With such high-end meat on your back, you guess you're going to a gourmet club, right? At the end of this street, the biggest building is the one! β
The soldier waved his hand and motioned for him to leave.
Liu Guohui nodded hurriedly, picked up the jar and followed the direction pointed by the soldiers.
Gourmet Club? Premium meat?
Looks like I'm going to make a trip.
I made up my mind and walked straight to the end of the street.
It is a five-storey wooden building, oval-shaped, some like a stadium, some like the Temple of Heaven, in short, it looks magnificent.
There are a lot of people coming in and out of the door, and there are people in all kinds of clothes, Liu Guohui watched from the side for a while, and then walked in with the flow of people.
Entering the gate, there is a whole hall inside, and a huge signboard is hung above his head, introducing various processes in the form of pictures and texts, Liu Guohui only glanced at it, and he understood which department he should look for.
As the flow of people moved forward, I was surprised in my heart.
A traverser has made such a big show, I'm afraid it's not a simple character! It would be nice to be able to get in touch with him.
The interior of the club building is divided into many areas, somewhat similar to the underground shopping mall, with a wide aisle in the middle and rooms with different functions on the left and right.
The high-end ingredient purchase area that Liu Guohui is looking for is a room similar to a bank business hall.
There were very few people inside, only a few staff members dressed in light cyan clothing.
As soon as Liu Guohui pushed the door in, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy immediately greeted him.
"This guest officer, do you have any high-end ingredients that you need to sell?"
Liu Guohui was afraid that he would say too much wrong, so he simply didn't speak, and directly handed over the jar behind him.
The little boy hugged it, opened it and only glanced at it, a trace of joy jumped in his eyes, and he hurriedly said, "Guest officer, wait a minute!" β
He stood up and turned to run, shouting as he ran, "Blind! Come out and say hello, you're here! β
The little boy turned to the backstage and disappeared, and another boy walked over, about the same age as before, his eyes were very small, as if there was only a gap, he brought a cup of tea and led Liu Guohui to sit on the rest seat.
Liu Guohui nodded in thanks, holding the teacup in his hand, but he didn't dare to touch the tea.
This plane is too weird, and he won't enter without anything that has been rigorously tested.
After waiting for a few minutes, the little boy came out with a potted plant, a white flower with two leaves, which looked like a flower drawn by a kindergarten child.
He put the flower pot on the table, gestured to Liu Guohui, took out a small knife and cut a piece of diced meat the size of a grain of rice, and threw it directly into the stamen.
I saw that the little white flower suddenly shuddered, and then various colors appeared on the petals, like a rainbow of colors, and finally fixed on the light green.
The little boy's face was overjoyed, and he hugged his fists and said, "Congratulations to this guest officer, this is a high-grade ingredient of more than one hundred levels." Judging by the color, it should be between level 100 and level 110, and at the purchase price of my food club, every 100 grams is 50 gold. These are about fifteen kilograms in your hands, which means that we can give out 7,500 gold. You can choose the golden ticket or other ingredients of the same value, I don't know the price, are you satisfied? β
Liu Guohui nodded, and pointed to the small flower that was gradually fading into white with curiosity.
"Oh, that's what you're asking. This is a rainbow flower, but a rough identification of the grade of the ingredients, there is a rainbow of its color, each change represents thirty levels, your ingredients are in the green segment, for the fourth level, first determined to be between 90 and 120 levels, and then according to the depth of the color, judged to be below 110 levels. β
The little boy explained a few more sentences and asked, "Do you want a golden ticket, an ingredient or a golden gold?" β
Liu Guohui thought for a moment and stretched out three fingers.
"Want gold? Three wants? Then how about I prepare seven thousand gold tickets, four hundred gold, and zero-level ingredients worth one hundred gold? β
Liu Guohui nodded.
"Do you have any requirements for Grade 0 ingredients? Is regular white rice OK? β
Liu Guohui's eyes lit up and he nodded hurriedly.
"Okay, then I'll prepare it for you right away!"
The little boy carried the pot away. The squinting boy came over and saluted, then carried the little jar to the back.
About five minutes later, the little boy came out with a box, "This is the golden ticket and gold, the zero-level ingredients are ready, and our convoy can help you deliver them anywhere within ten miles." Is there anything else you need? β
Liu Guohui shook his head, arched his hand to express his gratitude, and turned around to leave.
All the way out of the gate, the motorteam at the gate was already waiting.
The first black-clothed guard saw Liu Guohui come out, with envy in his eyes, and said, "What you asked for, one hundred stones of white rice have been loaded, divided into five carriages, where will I send it?" β
Liu Guohui pointed to the city gate.
"Out of town? Is it within 10 miles? Then no problem! β
The guard whistled, and the five horses marched in unison, pulling the carriage and moving slowly.
There were no grooms in the carriage, but the horses were clever and well-behaved, and they lined up, following one after the other slowly, smoothly and neatly.
Seeing the guards beckoning him to get into the carriage, Liu Guohui looked left and right, wondering in his heart, he was escorting him alone?
If that's the case, maybe take a little risk.
Liu Guohui's eyes flickered, and he secretly made a decision.
