As the saying goes, where there are people, there are fights, and where there are conflicts, even if the whole world has just undergone great changes, even if the evolution beasts outside threaten the life and death of human beings, but as long as human society is still there, these struggles will not stop.

Open Source City is ostensibly controlled by the state, but in fact it is not, when the land area is expanded dozens of times, the distance between the gathering places and the gathering places has become much farther away, some of the gathering places close to the capital are easy to say, but the farther away countries are a little beyond the reach of the whip.

After all, there are evolved beasts everywhere, and it will be very difficult to transfer personnel.

In a gathering place like Kaiyuan City, which is far away from the imperial capital, it is difficult for the city lords and military officers who are transferred from above to control the overall situation, and those rich families have a certain right to speak in the city, and even these rich families can change some government decisions in the city.

Whether it is the Bass family behind Yang Shi's friend Hayes, or the Fokker family where Young Master Brooke belongs, they are all rich families with the right to speak in Open Source City.

The two families are calm on the surface, but in fact, there are undercurrents surging, targeting everywhere, they both have a lot of resources in their hands, and they are targeting each other in order to get more benefits from it.

This kind of feud even spread to the two young masters of the family in the academy, and Yang Shi heard his sarcastic words about Brooke from Hayes more than once.

There are a lot of conflicts between the two in the academy, and even the number of fights exceeds the number of one hand, which shows how bad the relationship between the two is.

However, why would Brooke send someone to deal with him today, although he had heard the name from Hayes countless times since he entered the school, he had never seen Brooke this person.

If he said that he offended Brooke for personal reasons, he didn't believe it himself, and eighty percent was targeted by Brooke because he was closer to Hayes.

Finding someone to beat you up is nothing more than trying to disgust Hayes, "Hey, look, you can't even protect your friends, you useless guy." That's probably what it means, I just suffered an unwarranted disaster.

If you hadn't been strengthened by the Creation Bead, you would have been really unlucky today.

Yang Shi is not going to tell Hayes about this, there are some things that you can't always think about relying on others, being bullied to the head, and you have to get the field back by yourself.

After the theory class in the afternoon, Yang Shi was a little hesitant to go to work in the appraisal shop, but after thinking about it, he decided to pretend to be sick and take leave for a while to see if the wanted criminal was caught.

Now if he goes back to work in the appraisal shop, Yang Shi always has a feeling of waiting for him to come.

The process of asking the boss for leave was still very smooth, the boss didn't make it difficult for him, Yang Shi knew that this was because after he went back, the boss would use this leave as an excuse to deduct more of Yang Shi's salary, you think a Grande boss would be willing to suffer, don't be stupid, they have passed the age of kindness.

Even the severed table had already been counted on Yang Shi's head at a price twenty percent higher than the market price, and it was estimated that this month had been done in vain.

Fortunately, Yang Shi still has the three thousand federal coins he extorted, otherwise he would really have to drink the Northwest Wind.

However, the three thousand federal coins Yang Shi had other uses, and his living conditions were still difficult.

In a place near the west block in the central square, there will be a lot of people who come here to set up stalls in the evening, there is no chengguan profession in the open source city, and the city owner is not interested in managing this kind of lock-breaking small thing, gradually, this place has become the only stall place that everyone agrees on.

Most of them go out of the city during the day to look for resources, and when they come back in the evening, those who have a harvest will come here to set up stalls and sell what they want to sell.

Of course, you don't expect to buy anything good here, if someone really finds a treasure, they will sell it directly to the shops of the rich people, even if they don't use it themselves.

After all, there is also a risk in setting up your own stall, and it is not impossible for some people to be greedy and rob, relatively speaking, it is basically impossible for those big stores to commit this kind of robber behavior in order to take care of their reputation.

The most sold on the stalls are some materials and other things, such as food, animal skins and other raw materials, those big stores will only recycle such materials at a low price, which is not cost-effective, and if you set up your own stall, you can sell it only a little cheaper than the price sold in those stores.

Although it is not much worse, in order to survive, they would rather spend more time setting up their own stalls.

Yang Shi rarely came here in normal times, after all, he didn't have spare money to buy other things.

On a long street, there are a lot of people walking back and forth, on both sides of the street, there are already dozens of people set up stalls, some put the things to be sold in the wooden carts, some lay a board on the ground, and put the things on it, and there are more shabby, the torn paper that was torn off from somewhere is spread on the ground, and the things are thrown up, and people sit next to them and wait quietly.

Pedestrians on this street scanned the stalls on both sides, stopping from time to time to bargain with the sellers.

What made Yang Shi pay attention was that each seller had an energy gun in his hand, and some would have two knives inserted in his waist, and although his outfit was tattered, he looked very strong.

They were on guard against people who didn't open their eyes to grab things, and although there weren't many of them, they weren't without them, especially the beggars and hungry people who came out of the North Block.

So the bloodshed here has always been high, and it is normal for dead people to die in this post-reconstruction era, even if they kill people in the city, as long as the other party's status is not high, at most they will be fine if they pay some money or materials.

In this chaotic dark age, the city lord simply didn't have that many manpower to maintain law and order in the entire city, he only needed to focus on maintaining the law and order in the rich area and his own territory.

Yang Shi walked through the crowd, his eyes scanning back and forth between the stalls on both sides, looking for what he needed.

"How do you sell this knife?" Yang Shi squatted down in front of a stall and pointed to a wide knife with a little rust on it.

The stall owner with a steel helmet on his head turned the energy gun in his hand and looked at Yang Shi, "Boy, look at you so thin, buy a knife for self-defense, okay, I like young people, I sold you for a thousand federal dollars." ”

Yang Shi stopped talking, got up and left.

"Eh, five hundred, five hundred federal coins, take it. The stall owner saw that Yang Shi was simply leaving, so he hurriedly shouted again, and directly discounted it, what a conscientious stall owner.

Yang Shi ignored it, took two steps, and came to a stall next to the stall owner, "How do you sell this knife?"

The stall was also selling a long knife, but in addition to a slight rust, there were a few notches in the blade, which looked a little more broken.
