Chapter 105: The Bet
Off-road motorcycle, Zhang Jianyang finally gave up.
In the dark night, the roar of the off-road motorcycle engine was like a locator and guide installed for all the mutant beasts, and it was strange not to attract the mutant beasts within a radius of dozens of kilometers.
With his bags on his back and heavy snipe in his hands, Zhang Jianyang could only return to the Tamu Basin in the dark.
The reason why he didn't throw away the heavy sniper rifle was that Zhang Jianyang needed a long-range firepower, and the heavy sniper was the most loved by Zhang Jianyang. The strength of the four-star can be used as an ordinary rifle with a heavy sniper, and the strength of the arm can be easily used to play heavy sniping, and even this recoil is like a fictitious one, which is insignificant for any star warrior.
Walking alone in the dark night, this move, if anyone finds out, will definitely suspect Zhang Jianyang of being a celestial.
The night is a forbidden area for humans, infested with mutant beasts, some of which have never been discovered by humans. The night is like a place of amusement for mutant beasts, and now there is a human, what would it be like? Even if it is a person who stands on the pinnacle of the Star Warrior, when it is not necessary, he will not easily stay in the dark night.
In fact, Zhang Jianyang's actions are still very crazy.
Zhang Jianyang, who was walking in the desert, his heart was also raised, although he was not afraid of the night, but when he encountered the existence of a similar bug like a blue light insect, he could only stare dryly, and he was gnawed until there was no scum left.
At three o'clock in the morning, Zhang Jianyang finally stepped into the junction of the Tamu Basin and the desert without danger.
………… The early morning light is basking on the Tamu Basin.
Zhang Jianyang sat on the bed, smoking a cigarette, and at this moment he had washed away the embarrassment of the whole night.
Risking his life, it now seems, everything was worth it. Lou Orchid is worthy of being a god, just a petal has made Zhang Jianyang have earth-shaking changes.
"It's a pity, Lou Orchid also has a critical point." Zhang Jianyang was a little helpless, the role of Lou Orchid, such as enhancing star power and strengthening the body, can only be carried out once a month, and if there are more, the human body basically has no way to withstand this kind of transformation, and when the time comes, the cells will divide and die will be a few points worse than being radiated.
Lou Orchid does not increase the level of star power, its effect is somewhat similar to magic potions, which can replenish star power.
The real role of Lou Orchid lies in its resurrection, and having it is tantamount to having several lives.
The sixth-order nuclear crystal and the poisonous lizard's toxin poison sac can only be regarded as an unexpected gain.
Zhang Jianyang is also a little pity, if he can stay in the oasis for a while, with the growth environment on the oasis, he can breed the treasure land of Lou Orchid, and there must be other precious mutant medicinal materials, and the grade is at least above the demon product. But thinking that he should not be too greedy, Zhang Jianyang was relieved, maybe when he was stronger, he could take it openly.
With Lou Orchid, Zhang Jianyang's plan for his parents and relatives can finally be carried out.
Yes, it is to build your relatives into star warriors.
………… Life in Salt Lake City is exactly the same as in the countryside, and it becomes very lively in the early morning, and every household gets up at about half past five in the morning, and then at six o'clock they will gather in groups, and those who should go to work will go to work, doing small businesses, and those who work on the farms outside will set off outside the city.
The appearance of the caravan injected a trace of vitality into Salt Lake City, and the salt works, which had long ceased production, became very lively again.
A large amount of deep-processed refined salt is packed into salt bags according to one kilogram. Bags of 100 pounds of refined salt were transported to warehouses, awaited distribution, and then loaded into caravans.
There is no need for the people of the various chambers of commerce to worry, everything is arranged by Salt Lake City, and the people who need to go to the caravan to do it are to count the quantity and carry out the final acceptance work.
On the day the caravan entered Salt Lake City, the grain had been purchased by Salt Lake City, and there was no difference between the price and the Ning Chamber of Commerce, but in terms of payment, other chambers of commerce used the form of refined salt and the form of currency. And the Ning Chamber of Commerce, like the original agreement, Salt Lake City paid gold.
Invisibly, the Ning Chamber of Commerce is on this, and the profits are far from the people of other chambers of commerce.
Salt Lake City has set up a special chamber of commerce management organization to provide one-stop service for the operation of caravans entering Salt Lake City.
This meant that the caravan only had to enter Salt Lake City, where they could stay for two or three days at leisure, and then leave with money and a cart full of refined salt. What Wang Zhikun advocated was to use the simplest way to let the caravans experience the importance that Salt Lake City attaches to them and its strong support for the development of commerce.
After all, Salt Lake City is already poor.
Considering the time, the caravan chose to return to Sand City at 2 p.m., which was exactly in the evening, so that they could spend a safe night on the World Tree and then return to Sand City in the afternoon of the next day.
Before leaving, Wang Zhikun hosted a banquet for Zhang Jianyang alone.
Although Salt Lake City is a declining city, the place where Wang Zhikun invited Zhang Jianyang to a banquet is still a very luxurious, modern and natural scenery perfect integration of a hotel.
In the lobby, the design of an indoor botanical garden is amazing.
In the best box, Zhang Jianyang walked in under the gesture of Secretary Wang Zhikun.
Wang Zhikun stood up with a smile and greeted: "Actually, I should have invited you to a meal yesterday, but I was entangled in many affairs, so I had to take time out today." ”
Being able to be invited to a banquet by the mayor of a city and replaced by someone else is definitely a matter of great face. Of course, Zhang Jianyang wanted to make a flattered look: "Mayor Wang, I should invite you." ”
Wang Zhikun smiled: "Okay, Brother Zhang, it's more appropriate for you to call me Big Brother, you and I are real people." I'm not a person who puts on a show, I invite you to come today, firstly, to thank you for your contribution to Salt Lake City, and secondly, it can be regarded as a friend's position, you are going back to Shacheng in the afternoon, and when you come again, I don't know when. ”
As the real overlord of the Tamu Basin, Wang Zhikun knows very well that the reason why there is a caravan in Salt Lake City is completely beneficial to Zhang Jianyang in front of him.
Merchants are certainly chasing profits, but in that sense, Salt Lake City will be grateful to these merchants who have gone through all the hardships to appear here, because it is because of them that there will be no hunger in the Tamu Basin this year, and no one will be starved to death again. Wang Zhikun has nothing to pursue, his greatest wish is the stability and tranquility of the Tamu Basin.
There are too many disputes in this world, and it is impossible for the small Tamu Basin to participate in this world of great disputes.
No matter how the external situation changes, what Wang Zhikun needs to do well is to let the Tamu Basin, a place like a paradise, continue to be peaceful.
Wang Zhikun is competent as the mayor of any city and leads 800,000 people in the entire Tamu Basin, so he naturally has a vision. Zhang Jianyang is the person Wang Zhikun can't see through the most, there is no one, so he believes that Zhang Jianyang will not be ordinary, which is also the reason why Wang Zhikun lowered his identity.
Zhang Jianyang was a little restrained by Wang Zhikun's enthusiasm: "Then I will dare to call Brother Wang." ”
The two of them sat down, and immediately a waiter brought up the food and drinks, all of which were aquatic products from the salt lake, and some game, which was an absolute luxury.
"Jianyang, I can see that if there is no accident, I'm afraid this will be the last time you go to the Tamu Basin, right?" Wang Zhikun picked up the wine glass and took a sip lightly.
Zhang Jianyang looked at Wang Zhikun and said, "Why did Brother Wang say that. ”
Wang Zhikun laughed and said, "Intuition can also be said to be my inference. ”
Zhang Jianyang was a little silent, indeed, this may be the last time Zhang Jianyang appeared in the Tamu Basin, because the next caravan of the Chamber of Commerce will definitely not be led by Zhang Jianyang, with ant repellent agents, it is completely possible for some experienced people to lead the team. What's more, Zhang Jianyang has no purpose to come to the Tamu Basin, and Zhang Jianyang is far from so interested in pure business behavior.
"Actually, it's not interesting, I just hope that when it's convenient, I can help the Tamu Basin more, the people here are too bitter." Wang Zhikun is indeed a good mayor, Zhang Jianyang nodded: "Since I call you Brother Wang, the matter of the Tamu Basin is my business, and there will definitely be more caravans here in the future." ”
"Then, I'm here to thank you Jianyang, come, I'll do it first as a respect." Wang Zhikun drank the wine.
When the banquet dispersed, Wang Zhikun asked someone to bring a heavy box, he asked him to open it, and said: "Jianyang, these things are left in my hands, and they have little effect, but in your hands, I think they can play a greater role." Your contribution to Salt Lake City, everything is in the eyes of 800,000 people in the Tamu Basin, and you deserve these things. ”
The Tamu Basin is not rich in gold, and its largest product is refined salt, as well as crude oil and ores.
Of course, Wang Zhikun's box was not filled with gold or anything like that, but a box of black metal, some like coal, and some like broken iron.
If it is gold, this box will only be twenty or thirty catties, although it is a huge amount of money, it is impossible to make Zhang Jianyang lose his temper. However, when Zhang Jianyang saw this box of metal, he stood up unconsciously and stared at this box of black metal. Who doesn't know the well-known metal form of G matter? What Wang Zhikun sent out was a small box of G substance.
"Brother Wang, no, it's too precious, I can't afford it." Zhang Jianyang only regained his composure in an instant, and hurriedly refused.
Of course Zhang Jianyang knows the value of this box of G substances, and the more he knows, the more he dares to accept it.
Wang Zhikun said seriously: "In fact, life is full of bets, no one knows what the future will be like, and they will not know what you will do tomorrow, every day is a bet with fate and life." Now you will make a big gamble with me, and if you win, the Tamu Basin will benefit for a hundred years, and if you lose, it will be when Wang Zhikun knows people and can't go home. Now I'm just putting my bet on you, I just hope that in the future, if there is really any difficulty in the Tamu Basin, please help me in the face of you calling me brother today. ”
