Early morning.

Mechanical Hive, Secret Base.

Lin Chuan stayed awake all night, and he burst his liver all night.

That's bad news, since the New Year, he's found that the number of all-nighters is a bit high, especially during this period.

It has been almost half a month since he returned to the mechanical hive, and Lin Chuan has been given a five-day vacation.

In fact, even if he takes half a month's vacation, Master Basel will approve it, whether it is the previous big order of the White Werewolf Clan, or the order of Hewan Lake City, Lin Chuan, as an assistant, can get half a month's vacation.

The work of the mechanics of the craftsman school is like this, after a long time in the workshop, the mind is highly concentrated, and if you do not relax in time, it is easy to suffer from neurasthenia.

Of course, Lin Chuan will not have this problem, as a newly promoted powerhouse of the Three Realms, and with [Materialized Spiritual Energy], the work intensity of the Fire Blade Workshop is pediatrics.

The reason for his vacation was to deal with the Riptide base.

"So...... , the black market name, mercenaries above the intermediate level have all refused......"

Looking at the documents on the light screen, Lin Chuan frowned and contacted Mossy Bone.

"Not only the black market, but also the mercenaries of other organizations above the middle level have refused the invitation of our base......"

"There are other materials of the Xinyuan armament, and I can't find a way to buy them......"

"However, the sales channel of energy crystals, the black market gives a period of time, the operation of the base, which is far from what was originally expected.

Whether it is a mercenary hired for base defense, or other staff, no one above the intermediate level can be recruited.

As for the materials of the Xinyuan armament, various channels also refused to supply them......

"The news of the attribute energy crystal veins is still leaking too quickly......" Lin Chuan rubbed his forehead, a little headache.

In fact, he also expected such a situation.

He will use the Riptide Base, as the first stronghold of the Black Market Deacon, which will definitely attract the investigation of the well-intentioned.

Attribute energy crystals are in short supply on the market, which will naturally provoke suppression from all sides.

Even if it is a black market, it wants to buy raw materials, and does not want to provide other materials for the Xinyuan armament.

After all, the sale of attribute energy crystals is welcomed by various channel providers.

And creating the Xinyuan armed by himself is tantamount to sharing the cake, even if this stall has never been saturated, if you want to join, you have to be suppressed first.

"We're going to hurry up and make our name out!" Moss Bone suggested.

"Of course I understand the reason...... , the question is how to do it......" Lin Chuan didn't have a good airway.

Moss Bone was speechless, and he would also say that he was not a merchant during his lifetime, nor did he manage any family business, and he did not know where to start.

Lin Chuan groaned, the hired personnel can be put aside, there is really a big trouble, you can apply to the black market and mobilize a team to rescue.

The source of materials can also be purchased at a high price......

Moss Bone is right, first of all, he must make a name for himself as a black market deacon as soon as possible.

"Make a name for yourself as soon as possible......

Lin Chuan closed his eyes and pondered, for a long time, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he opened his eyes.

Brush!

The moss bone light and shadow appeared, looking at Lin Chuan, with a look of anticipation: "Have you thought of a way to make a name for yourself?"

"Nope. ”

Lin Chuan shook his head, his face was a little strange, "I thought of the way to source the material...... , possible pathways...... , and I'm going to look into it again. ”

"Even if the source of materials is solved, the fame is not good enough, and the Xinyuan weapon produced may not have an order!"

"Step by step, everything is difficult at the beginning, and it can always be solved. I'll investigate first......" Lin Chuan got up and prepared to leave the base.

——

Mechanical Caverns.

This is equivalent to the garbage dump of the mechanical hive, and it is also a place where dragons and snakes are mixed, and it is also considered by the outside world to be a gold panning place for the mechanical hive.

There is a huge amount of mechanical garbage piled up here, and it is full of the wreckage of various star weapons and high-level mechanical devices, as long as you find a piece of high-star armed parts here, it is a considerable income.

For a long time, the Mechanical Hive Gold Prospectors have been large and well organized, panning for gold in various locations of the Mechanical Caverns.

However, the mechanical cave is not safe, there are many terrifying mechanical golems, the mechanical puppets in the depths of the cave, and even the existence of powerhouses comparable to the five realms.

Boom Boom Boom ......

The cacophony of machinery resounded, the mechanical cavern was brightly lit, and from time to time someone rushed out of it and jumped onto a metal platform, followed by a group of mutated animals.

At the entrance of the cave, Mu Qian and her brother Mu Jun walked together, she looked at her brother's mechanical arm, her face was a little worried.

"Brother...... , it's time for your arm to be replaced, I always feel like it's going to fail......" Mu Qian said.

"You can use it for another year, and then change it next year. ”

Mu Jun touched his right hand, and there was a crisp sound of "creaking", which sounded like something malfunctioning, and he smiled: "In the past ten years, I have replaced three mechanical prostheses, and I know it in my heart." This will last at least another year and a half. ”

"Brother...... , don't save money for me, I can make money myself now. You can change your arm for a better time, and it will be safer to work. ”

Mu Qian tugged at the corners of her brother's clothes, swayed and swayed, and used a coquettish killer weapon, which made the men around her in a daze.

She knew that high-grade mechanical prostheses were very expensive, especially the mechanical prostheses working in mechanical caves, each of which could easily cost hundreds of thousands of gold coins.

However, the money that Mu Jun earns every year is completely affordable.

The gold diggers here are a high-risk, high-income industry.

It's just that in the past, my brother has been very frugal in order to provide for her to go to school and provide her with a living.

"If you save money for me like this, if my parents are still alive, they will definitely scold me......" Mu Qian said.

"Alright. Okay, don't nag you girl, I'll get a new one next month. But even if you have a high-end mechanical prosthesis, it's really too expensive. ”

"I'm going to finish this year, so I'll take a break and find you a sister-in-law. ”

Mu Jun said with a smile.

"Really...... Elder brother~...... You've finally gotten your head in. ”

Mu Qian looked surprised and said with a smile: "Let's go! In order to celebrate, I have a treat today, take my brother to eat something good." ”

The two of them came out of the mechanical cave and came to a shop at the intersection, which was the one that Mu Qian brought Lin Chuan to before, a small mechanical workshop.

Walking into the store, Mu Qian was surprised, she saw that Lin Chuan was also there.

The young man ordered a table of food, and there he feasted on it alone, oh no, and Lan Xiaomeow.

"Meow ......"

Lan Xiaomeow screamed, it had actually seen this beautiful sister earlier, with her little head held high and her paws moving.

"Little Meow ......"

Mu Qian didn't want to go over, she was worried that her brother would ask questions, but she couldn't stand the charm of the little guy, so she walked over and picked up Lan Xiaomeow, "Little thing, do you miss your sister, I haven't seen you for so long, I don't feel like I have grown meat......"

Scold...... , the charm of this meow is really still there......

Lan Xiaomeow secretly smiled proudly, after returning to the mechanical hive, it prefers to sell cuteness.

The huge cat's head before left a big shadow on it, and only in this way can it have a little peace of mind.

Lin Chuan smiled: "Long time no see." It's your ......"

Looking at Mu Jun, who was somewhat similar to Mu Qian, Lin Chuan immediately said, "Is it Mu Qian, your brother?" Let's eat together." ”

"This is ......"

Mu Jun looked at Lin Chuan with his brother's unique scrutiny.

"It's a normal friend. Brother, don't think about it. ”

Mu Qian pulled Mu Jun to sit down, "It's not far from me." This is the place I introduced him. ”

"Uh......"

Mu Jun looked at the things on the table, and suddenly thought, his sister introduced a young man to eat in this store, can this be an ordinary friend?

Lin Chuan was very enthusiastic and beckoned Mu Jun to sit down, he was just about to learn about the mechanical cave, but he didn't expect to meet Mu Qian's brother.

He remembered that Mu Qian had said that her brother was panning for gold in the mechanical cave......
