Chapter 57: Trading Markets
Looking at Li Mo who was smiling and groaning in front of him, Liu Ming pondered for a moment before he said: "Xiao Li, I definitely can't be the master of this matter, I have to go back and negotiate with the above." ”
But at this point, he paused, but said, "But I want to give you a preventive shot first, although you are willing to take out the mutant beast, but according to my estimate, it will be difficult for the above to agree to your conditions." After all, even Xiao Li yourself knows how precious crystals are. Therefore, it is better for you to think again about whether to lower the asking price. ”
Liu Ming said this, not to test Li Mo's bottom line. On the contrary, it is a kind reminder.
In fact, it is said that Liu Ming is a powerful figure in Lianghua, and he should think about his own gathering place everywhere. But what about him, he reminded Li Mo instead.
Why is this happening? Naturally, it was because he guessed the purpose of Li Mo's request for crystallization. Going north to find relatives, it is obvious who the crystallization is prepared for.
Therefore, Li Mo completely used his own behavior to gain the favor of Lianghua, the chief manager.
As for Li Mo, he is not the kind of person who can't hear good words, so he accepted it with a smile and said that he would think about it again.
In fact, even he himself knew that even if Lianghua's foundation was much thicker than Xingcheng's, it was impossible to agree to that condition.
And the result he wants to achieve in the end is actually just two crystals, and the bottom line is to get at least one.
However, he is still very confident in this, after all, a whole mutant beast is also very attractive.
You must know that studying evolution is very material-intensive, and on Lianghua's side, there is no reborn person like Li Mo. Don't underestimate Li Mo's guidance to Professor Zhang when he was in Xingcheng. His guidance, it can be said that greatly reduced the cost of research.
As for the purpose of his request for crystallization, it was exactly what Liu Ming guessed, that is, for his mother and sister.
In Li Mo's eyes, everything in the last days is nothing, and only its own evolution and continuous strength are the most real and reliable.
After chatting a few more words, Li Mo sent Liu Ming away.
At the same time, he also asked Zheng Jianguo to simply pull the corpse of the mutant beast to the exchange house, even if it was stored there. After all, it's not a thing to always put in the car, and he can't carry such a big thing with him.
……
Early the next morning, Li Mo took Xiao Jiangsheng to just come back from the water room to wash, but saw Wang Ruolin, the girl who led him the way yesterday, waiting at the door of the guest room.
"Why are you here?" As he spoke, he pushed the door into the house, and threw the basin on the basin shelf by the door.
In the Lianghua gathering place, there is no longer a pre-apocalyptic tap water system, but a self-built underground water pipe. It's just that the water quality is not very good, and it tastes very hard. It's bitter and astringent, but it's relatively safe.
Therefore, although the guest room where Li Mo lives has a separate bathroom, in addition to the toilet that can be used, washing and drinking water, he still has to go to the temporary water room to fetch water.
looked at Wang Ruolin who followed the room again, and saw that he was still so cold and indifferent, and couldn't help but pouted secretly. immediately made up for it on his own, and upgraded Li Mo from a scumbag to a stingy scumbag, thinking that he must still be thinking about yesterday's incident.
The psychological side is still muttering to that: If it weren't for the task given by the supervisor above yesterday, would people be willing to come to you as an escort?
It turned out that after Wang Ruolin went back yesterday, he was invited into the office by the director of the reception office, and gave him the task of accompanying Li Mo throughout the past two days. To put it bluntly, he is to be a follower and take Li Mo around.
But to be honest, the gathering place is not a tourist attraction, so there is nothing to turn around. Therefore, Wang Ruolin sneered at this strange task.
But what made her most aggrieved was that when the supervisor explained the task to herself yesterday, he actually hinted that if the distinguished guest had any thoughts about herself, then she had better not refuse, and should try her best to meet the requirements of the guest.
Although the supervisor hinted at the time, he said it very tactfully, but Wang Ruo was still aggrieved and almost shed tears.
And when she left the office, when other colleagues looked at her, they either looked at her with envy or jealousy, which also made her extremely dazzling.
She knew that the reason for this result must be because of the half-catty meat ticket. And the initiator is naturally Li Mo.
But no matter how reluctant and angry you are, what can you do?
She knew that there were some sisters who had actually started this kind of thing a long time ago. As for himself, he just pretended not to see it and deliberately pretended to be confused.
But when this kind of thing really falls on her head, she can only choose to accept it silently. Because I need this decent job, I need a good quota and salary. She didn't want to be reduced to the outer city, like those dirty women, who traded her body for survival.
However, what made Wang Ruolin feel a little relieved was that Li Mo had made it clear yesterday that he was not interested in him. Although those words hurt her self-esteem, for her, they were extremely down-to-earth.
I don't know why, although I still hate that guy, I don't think he's a duplicitous person at all. Every sentence is spoken, and it seems to be very convincing.
Looking at the front again, Wang Ruolin quickly entered the role, and simply said her task.
But when I was talking, I was thinking, maybe as soon as I finished speaking, this guy would send me away, right? In that case, the director wouldn't blame me.
It's a pity that she thought it well, but Li Mo's reply disappointed her again. The goods promised very happily, nodded and said, "That's fine, I just want to go out for a walk." ”
Due to the innate advantages of geography, the Lianghua gathering place, which is very close to the capital, has developed extremely fast, and the speed of absorbing survivors and expanding is not comparable to Xingcheng at all.
Because of its proximity to the capital, the surrounding population base is huge. Coupled with the survivors who fled from the capital, the population growth of the agglomeration area is not fast.
Therefore, during this period, the Lianghua Gathering Area can be said to have developed into a small town, accommodating almost 100,000 survivors.
And in order to survive, the survivors here will naturally rack their brains, and the eight immortals will cross the sea to show their magical powers.
Not only yesterday, Li Mo heard that in the inner city, there was already a place similar to a trading market. Although the gathering place has not yet come up with a coordinated management method for this kind of private transaction, it has not chosen to interfere, and even has a sense of encouragement.
Therefore, Li Mo's so-called going out and going around is actually referring to that market.
……
Located in the northernmost part of the inner city, the market was once a playground in the military district, but now it has been built with a large number of simple houses.
In the beginning, it was just one of the most modest residential areas in the inner city. But as some people here began to make transactions, they gradually evolved into a market-like existence.
However, the market must be crowded and narrow, and cars can't drive in. So Wang Ruolin parked the car outside and took Li Mo and Xiao Jiangsheng on foot.
Look around, look at this dirty and messy trading place in front of you. Li Mo really couldn't connect it with the bustling trading area in the future.
Of course, the trading area he knew about would be moved to a wider outer city in the near future. Today, it is just a precursor to its development.
However, Wang Ruolin is very familiar with this market, but she doesn't think that there is anything here that can attract the attention of Li Mo in front of her.
In fact, everything in the market can be found in almost all exchange offices, and it is definitely better.
Therefore, if Li Mo needs something, he can directly exchange what he wants. Anyway, as long as it's not too valuable, the gathering place will definitely give him free.
And this market, to put it bluntly, is a place for ordinary survivors who can't afford to exchange things for each other. cause
This Wang Ruolin felt that Li Mo was just idle and panicked, and he was wasting his time at all.
But no matter how reluctant she was in her heart, Li Mo, who led Xiao Jiangsheng, was quite interested. Of course, he didn't really come here because he was bored. Instead, I want to try my luck and see if I can come across something that I remember.
