Chapter 68: The Joker
Silver City.
When Fan Bei sat in Xie Bo's car, after driving for more than three hours, he finally saw a huge arc emitting silver light in the distance of the horizon.
It's like a rainbow after a rain, stretching across the horizon, except that it's not colorful, it's silvery white.
The city lives up to its name.
The closer you get to the city, the better the road conditions are, and the number of vehicles and pedestrians gradually increases.
On both sides of the road, you can see many fertile fields that have just finished harvesting wheat, and many farmers are working hard to sow corn.
The pedestrians, also unarmoured, most of them on bicycles, a few on motorcycles, and even fewer people, drove cars and arrogantly passed the others.
When the big jeep drove over, oncoming vehicles and pedestrians saw it, they pulled over and tried to get out of the center of the road.
But Xie Bo didn't go to the center of the road, and continued to drive in the same lane, and began to reduce his speed.
They entered the city from the north, and there was a wide gate with a company on duty.
The city wall is a semi-circular curved surface with many holes in it, and those holes seem to be defensive positions.
The people on duty at the city gate bowed when they saw the big jeep coming.
Fan Bei saw Xie Bo's prestige and status in this city, probably this was one of the reasons why the other party personally brought him over......
The speed of the car slowed down completely, and at a speed between 20 and 40, it slowly entered the city.
Xie Bo also began to introduce the city to Fan Bei, and his tone was full of pride:
"This city was designed and supervised by our big boss 8 years ago, and each piece of land has the best way to use it.
"The outermost layer is the civilian area, the second floor is the bronze area, the inner layer is the silver area, and the most central area is the gold area. The total population is over 1.5 million...... It is definitely the largest city within a thousand miles. ”
"There are 8 streets, and the ring is divided into 16 fan-shaped ......"
While listening to the introduction, Fan Bei watched the vehicle drive into the main road, and there seemed to be another checkpoint in the distance, and there was a silver-white high wall.
The pavement is silvery white and extremely clean, and you can't even see a piece of waste paper.
It is flanked by shops, and behind them are neat but crowded residential areas, one floor after the other, with few gaps.
Looks like this is the civilian area, he thought to himself.
He looked curiously at the crowded civilian areas, and saw people hurrying past and then from time to time.
Judging from the faces of those people, many of them had dishes on their faces, which seemed to be inconsistent with the appearance of the first city, but on the road, there were no ragged beggars or wanderers.
The latter, on the other hand, is an easy sight to see in the big cities.
"We have the fairest and strictest management system here," Xie Bo explained, "and only those who work hard can get the opportunity to rise and be well fed and clothed." Those skinny guys, they're all lazy and slippery guys. ”
Fan Bei nodded, and then praised: "I see that there doesn't seem to be a single beggar or homeless man in your city, and it is really well-governed......
Xie Bo looked at him with a strange gaze, and then said slowly: "Those guys, they are all working as servants, well, the ones you hired with a contract." ”
Fan Bei's face changed, and he suddenly understood that this was not a good governance, but forced labor.
During the conversation, the vehicle came to the checkpoint, and the person on duty still bowed and saluted, and was naturally allowed to go.
Behind it is naturally the bronze area.
The people here look much better, their clothes are clean, and their manners are beginning to be decent.
In the communities on both sides of the main road, small patches of green space appear with some simple recreational facilities.
Then there was another level, followed by another wall of silver and white.
After entering this level, the speed of the big jeep slows down completely, but it is only 5 kilometers away.
Fan Bei looked outside, this is the Silver District.
I saw that the people here are all reserved, very steady in their steps, and they all seem to have a very decent job.
The community is quite luxurious, with a lot of green space, and you can also see kindergartens, clinics and other accompanying facilities.
Eventually, the Jeep came down from the main road, entered a secondary road, and after driving some distance, came to a stop in front of a small seven-storey building enclosed by a red fence.
Xie Bo took the two of them, a dog and a ball, walked into the first floor of this building, and arranged them in three rooms.
"Mr. Fan, this is our welcome building. Depending on the VIP level of our customers, they can enjoy different floors and rooms. If you choose to watch tomorrow's showdown, we'll give you a one-year VIP membership, currently Level 1, where you can stay on the ground floor and enjoy all the facilities on the ground floor. As for how to get promoted, when I give you a gift package later, I will send you relevant instructions. ”
Xie Bo gave him a final explanation, and then gave him an admission ticket with the logo of a large arena and the words "Settlement No. 364, everyone, Mr. Fan Bei", and at the bottom was a familiar pattern, which was the pattern of the guarantor of the contract.
Fan Bei looked at the room assigned to him, the room was luxurious, no less than the level of a four-star hotel in his previous life, with an independent bathroom, a living room and a large bedroom.
Not long after Xie Bo left, there was a knock on his door.
Fan Bei opened the door and saw a beautiful waitress come in, holding a beautifully packaged box and a delicate card, handing it to Fan Bei.
He thanked the other party, opened the box and saw that it was a bottle of liquor, 5 years of "silver" brand pure grain brewing...... Sure enough, it was a beautiful gift package.
Then I looked at the card, V1 to V2, as long as the annual trade volume between the two sides is more than 500,000 silver coins, V3 will be 2 million, and V4 will have other requirements.
Fan Bei was not very interested, and quickly brought Da Bai and Tieqiu to his room, as for He Xixi, he still lived alone.
…………
The next day, August 10, at 8 a.m.
Someone came to lead the guests of the Welcome Building to watch the showdown.
The event is scheduled for 10 a.m. and is located in the heart of the city's Golden Zone.
When he went out, Fan Bei saw an acquaintance, Lang Sheng, who was talking to a thin man.
The other party also saw him, nodded at him, smiled and got into a car, and the thin man hurriedly followed.
Fan Bei also greeted with a sincere smile, and after watching the other party leave, he turned around and got into another car.
He Xixi held the ball in one hand and the big white rope in the other, and sat in the back row.
After all, this is not a family, and others don't know that Dabai has wisdom, and he still has to tie the rope.
…………
Lang Sheng sat in the car and leaned leisurely on the back of the seat.
He felt that fate was really wonderful, the young man named "Fan Bei" just now had personally sent the system to him, but the other party didn't know anything.
From the other party's smile, he saw a sincere gratitude: probably grateful that he had not only sold his precious cultivation exercises, but also guided the other party once......
The other party's talent is really strong, a month, just a month of cultivation, and he has reached the bronze level. It's a pity that I'm older, and I should be in my 20s.
In the past, when he encountered such a seedling, he must have been jealous, and he had to find a way to calculate the other party.
But now, he has an indifferent attitude.
No matter how talented you are? Is it better to have a system than yourself?
Now that he is not far from the Silver Rank, as long as the price of the Spirit Core drops back after the decisive battle, he will make another big Krypton, and then enter the Silver Rank.
This is fate, when the opportunity comes to you and you are not prepared, it will not and will never give you a second chance.
He got this opportunity, and the other party lost it forever.
The duel two hours later is just two clowns before the big script starts, and the real protagonist is only himself.
