Chapter 002 Trading
The nights in the desert are extremely cold, and no matter how hot the day is, no one wants to go out and walk in the middle of the night.
The guest room for the merchants was slightly brightly lit, and as the president of the chamber of commerce, Wood had developed a habit of sleeping late for many years.
He put down the list in his hand and rubbed his temples, the people sent out to find out the news had little effect, and the village was very secretive about Linciso's whereabouts, and some villagers even showed strong hostility, which was really a funny phenomenon.
"Knock, knock, knock" Suddenly, there was a quick knock on the door.
"Who? What's the matter at such a late hour? Wood roared angrily, his eyes wary, and drew a stun gun from his waist. This stun gun has an effective range of 150 meters, and after hitting the target, it will cause a small area of carbonization, even if it is gently brushed by the current, ordinary people are in great danger.
"Head, there's a dark-haired imp sneaking into my room and saying he wants to see you."
"Brunette imp? What is your name? ”
"Linciso."
"Bang" Wood pushed open the door, only to see a black-haired young man standing outside the door, his eyes were full of determination, a worn-out dagger pinned to his waist, a heavy blanket was placed under his feet, dark purple mycelium was exposed at random outside the blanket, and a faint fragrance filled the air that made people's pupils constrict.
"Okay, let's go into the house and talk, tell the people below, tighten your mouth, and everything will be as usual." Wood urged him.
"Yes, my subordinates understand." The entourage hurriedly went down to order, woke up some important personnel, and it was necessary to be ready at any time for the big deal.
Lin Xisuo pulled up the coat and walked into the room, and said straight to the point: "Hello, President Wood, I have brought all the special mycelium I have collected, a total of forty-five kilograms, and I hope that your chamber of commerce can give a fair price." ”
"Forty-five kilograms? Are they all premium hyphae? Wood couldn't help but shake his mind.
"Yes, it's all premium hyphae. Other levels of mycelium were used to repay the debts in the village earlier, and the village chief exploited it badly, and the uncles and aunts in the village dared not speak out, but I was alone, so I was not afraid. ”
Wood was a little appreciative and a little disdainful, in his opinion, the black-haired boy was too reckless, and he dared to bring all the mycelium, wasn't he afraid of other people's evil intentions?
Lin Xisuo stood up straight and was not afraid: "Your stun gun looks good, let's put it away!" I have an electronic sensor on my body, and in the event of an accident, the blanket where the mycelium is stored will immediately detonate, ensuring that it will be incinerated completely within three seconds. ”
"Is the jade burning? I underestimate you kid. Wood glanced at the blanket and did see a few roots of soil, and the black-haired boy in front of him was not simple in addition to courage.
Wood nodded and said, "Okay, we can make a deal, the question is how do you take the goods away?" Aren't you afraid that after the transaction, we will cross the river and tear down the bridge? And do you know the specific price of premium mycelium? Tuhuanxing rarely uses credit coins, they all use equivalent items instead of trading, the goods in your hands are enough to buy a large amount of supplies, and I don't want to have a bad relationship with the village chief, it's really difficult! ”
Lin Xisuo smiled lightly: "Uncle, don't worry, as long as you are sincere in your acquisition, all problems will be solved." First of all, let's talk about the price, seven years ago it seemed to be 3,000 credits per kilogram, but now it has to be raised by 20 percent, so it is calculated according to 3,600 credits per kilogram! Then forty-five kilograms is 162,000 credits. Of course, it is really troublesome to receive the goods, but it doesn't matter, I owe a lot of debts to my neighbors, and you can follow my instructions to ask your subordinates to make a few more trips, and the commission for delivery is 5%, and you will never lose money. ”
"Interesting, very well thought out, I wonder how you are so clear about the purchase price of premium mycelium, the village chief is unlikely to announce it to the outside world."
The black-haired boy rolled his eyes: "Uncle, you have to listen well, it's not a good habit to interrupt others at will." ”
Wood was embarrassed, how did the customer know that the specific price code really had nothing to do with the transaction, and said embarrassedly: "Please continue, I won't talk more." ”
"I've calculated that after excluding debts and commissions, the remaining mycelium is worth about 98,000 credits, and in order to ensure that you fulfill your promise, please forgive me for being rude, a timer device is installed in the blanket, and any slight touch within three days will cause an explosion. If you don't believe it, you can try it, and you won't be responsible for the consequences. ”
"What, how can you ......"
Wood was quite angry, but after thinking about it, what the black-haired boy did was completely reasonable, and even this was the best plan at the moment, which invisibly raised Linciso's evaluation of another level. Soothing his mind, he said, "I must inspect the goods first." ”
"It's easy to do!"
Linciso snapped his fingers, then took out the mycelium in batches, let Wood identify it, and when the other party was satisfied, only a quarter was delivered, and the rest was put back into the blanket to "urge" the other party to complete the whole transaction.
Years of misfortune and the hardships of the village chief's family have made the boy gradually mature, and he will not trust anyone easily, especially such an important matter.
"Well, forty-five kilograms of premium mycelium is not bad! So the cooperation is happy, and the remaining 98,000 credits is not a small amount, what are you going to do? ”
Lin Xiso replied casually: "I want to see Uncle Wood's personal things, like the stun gun just now, since it can't be purchased in large quantities, I can only seek refinement, expensive, and good!" ”
"Hehe, what a smart little ghost, doing business with you has a feeling of being led around everywhere, I will immediately ask someone to arrange it."
About fifteen minutes later, the two of them walked into the downstairs hall, where the table was filled with all kinds of items.
Linciso picked them up in turn and looked at them and asked a lot of questions about the product. After looking at it all, he first chose a high-beam crossbow, then took a ceramic dagger with excellent corrosion resistance, and a pocket of old-fashioned energy blocks.
"Uncle, don't send people with these goods, although I haven't seen anything big in the world, I can still tell the difference between good and bad things."
Wood's eyes changed, and the black-haired boy was really surprised by him, just now he was asking over and over again, if he bragged in front of his head, he would inevitably show his feet in the back, he had never seen such a difficult imp.
"Let's go to the side hall and have a look! You might be able to find the right gear for you. Linciso was invited by Wood to the side room, where twelve items were placed on the small table. In terms of shape and craftsmanship, the items here are obviously superior, but the price has also increased several times.
The first thing that amazes you is the three baby elephants in a cage. It is said that this creature was not small in ancient times, and after being genetically modified and cultivated, it became more and more small, and now only the individual of the mouse has become a pet for children, and each head is sold for 13,000 credits.
Looking at the baby elephant, Linciso lowered the cage. After all, it's a plaything, not much use, and you can't keep a pet with gerbils all day long.
Then he looked at the second item, which resembled a pen holder, but could emit a traction beam, and it was said that it was not a problem to hang ten tons of heavy cargo, and it was also a climbing tool, worth 22,000 credits.
"Hey, what is this? It won't be overloaded here, right? Lin Xiso pointed to a withered yellow plant, only three leaves on the plant were strangely green, and the other leaves were about to fall off if they swayed.
"You ask this plant? This is a medical product cultivated through genetic thickening technology, and chewing a leaf after the internal organs are injured will have a strong medical effect, and the side effects can be negligible. Unfortunately, it's dying, unless you buy the high-energy culture liquid next to it to have a chance to come to life. ”
"Culture?" Linciso picked up the glass bottle next to him, which was half grease, and shaking it would produce a lot of bubbles. There was a rumor in my heart, "Sure enough, there is no business or treachery, and you can probably make more money by selling it separately." ”
After watching it for a long time, Lin Xisuo couldn't help but ask, "How much is this medical plant?" What is the value of high-energy culture medium? ”
"It's not expensive, this is sent by a friend to consign, 39,000 credit coins for medical plants, 30,000 credit coins for a bottle of high-energy culture liquid, you can fully afford it."
"How expensive? Can it be cheaper? ”
"I'm sorry, it's already the best price." Wood said it seriously, but his heart blossomed, the effect of the medical plant is not so magical, it is just to reduce the damage, I didn't expect the black-haired boy to be interested in this thing, anyway, it can't be verified, maybe he can make a lot of money from it.
"I bought 69,000 credits, but I must come with three bags of fruit, ten bags of old-fashioned energy blocks, and five miniature searchlights, otherwise I can only give up."
Wood pretended to be helpless, and said shortly out of breath: "I have never seen such a picky customer as you, intact medical plants are worth at least five hundred and fifty thousand credits in the capital star, and you also want us to send other supplies, fruits are easy to do, but old-fashioned energy blocks are in demand, and there are not many stocks." It looks like I got a few of the miniature searchlights last month. Basically, it can meet your requirements, but there is a word first, next time you get the super mycelium, you must give priority to our Green Ark, how about it? ”
"In a word, if I'm still so lucky, I'll be the first to take care of Uncle Wood."
Two hours later, Linciso returned with a full load, took a bite of sweet apples, and sighed in his heart: "It's been five years, since the misfortune of five years ago, I haven't tasted such a fresh fruit again, and who knows the ups and downs?" can support it to this day, completely relying on the words of my mother before her death. To live, to live as a human being, to live better than anyone else. By the time other children reach out to their parents for toffee, they have learned how to fight gerbils. While the other children enjoyed the warmth of affection, they had become accustomed to the poisonous spores in the crypt. I once gave up on myself, I once complained about others, and finally deeply realized that if I want to survive, I can only rely on myself, and there is no other way to go. ”
Lynciso carefully avoided the trap and headed towards the bottom of the wreck, the village chief would certainly not let him go in the last few days, so he had to take a step into the crypt first, and hide as far away as possible until the caravan left.
