Chapter 197: Hunting the Merchant
"Big brother......" Xia Yanfeng pushed the door in. Guo Xing was also very surprised by his sudden visit.
"Fifth brother...... Belch...... Hurry up, please take a seat!" Guo Xing hurriedly stood up and greeted Xia Yanfeng, "Why did you think about coming to see your eldest brother today?"
Xia Yanfeng's gaze stayed on Xun Yan for a few seconds, and after looking at him carefully, he slowly sat down on the back chair on Guo Xing's right side.
"It turned out to be Mr. William Xia, the old boss of our president, who is really out of reach. Xun Yan bowed to Xia Yanfeng, and there was no lack of compliments, but Xia Yanfeng didn't care much about Xun Yan, after all, he came here in a hurry.
"If I'm not mistaken, you should be the resourceful Mr. Xun Yan. Xia Yanfeng habitually returned the salute.
Xun Yan smiled: "Resourcefulness naturally doesn't dare to be, but it's just ......"
"Lord Xun, our brothers have important matters to discuss, please avoid it. Guo Xing opened his mouth, and Xun Yan could only comply.
Xun Yan was not interested in understanding the matter between Guo Xing and Xia Yanfeng, he was just worried that something would happen that would threaten the interests and safety of the guild, nothing more. It's just that the little worry left in his heart is superfluous.
Xun Yan exited the room, and Guo Xing began to ask Xia Yanfeng: "Fifth brother, is there anything important to come this time?"
Xia Yanfeng stood up straight to the point and said, "Big brother, the fifth brother has mastered the economic lifeline of the guild this time, and he must revitalize the economy of the human guild, so please ask the eldest brother to help!"
"That's right, if you want to borrow money, you can use the gold coins on your eldest brother at will. Guo Xing said briskly.
Xia Yanfeng shook his head: "No, I came this time to ask my eldest brother for help, not to borrow money." In the current state, it is useless to have money, what we need is a refreshing new trick to attract more customers!"
"New tricks, you mean ......"
"It's something that others don't sell, in short, it's ......" Xia Yanfeng said this, a little embarrassed for a while, "That's it...... Big Brother's ...... Something unique ......"
"The fifth brother doesn't have to swallow, the eldest brother can guess. Guo Xing smiled, "You want those crystals refined by the eldest brother, right?"
Xia Yanfeng nodded and said eagerly: "Yes, if you want such a new trick, will the eldest brother give it to me?"
However, Guo Xing sighed, shook his head, and said helplessly: "Fifth brother, it's not that the eldest brother won't give it to you, it's just those crystallizations that are refined in nightmares, and normal people are too difficult to control. ”
Xia Yanfeng could understand Guo Xing's worries, since the crystallization didn't work, he had to think of another way.
Seeing Xia Yanfeng's frustration, Guo Xing could only comfort: "I'm really sorry, but there should still be other ways." ”
"Big brother. Xia Yanfeng's eyes lit up suddenly, "Do you know how to make equipment, even if you can only use raw materials to synthesize equipment." ”
Guo Xing thought for a moment and nodded unconvincedly: "I can only do a little bit of metallurgy, and I haven't cultivated deeply, but with my spiritual power, I can barely fit some equipment, but I still can't do this kind of blacksmith work." ”
"If you have ready-made equipment, you don't need to go through the trouble of crafting it. Xia Yanfeng pondered, but to turn it into a lot of equipment ready-made, it would be a daydream.
Guo Xing said: "It's not that there is no ready-made equipment, but it still takes some effort to get it." ”
"How?" Xia Yanfeng asked hurriedly.
"Huh...... I'm afraid that if you say it, you will feel too mean. Guo Xing laughed evilly, paced forward and leaned into Xia Yanfeng's ear, and told him a secret word in a voice that couldn't be lowered.
After hearing these words, Xia Yanfeng's expression instantly froze: "This ...... Big brother, you actually let me do such a dirty and despicable thing...... To do this kind of thing is to completely destroy the law of fair trade and fair competition......"
Guo Xing smiled coldly: "The law?The law of the jungle is the most natural law in this world, and any other laws and regulations are just tools used by the upper human beings to restrain the lower human beings, you don't have to care about these." ”
"Big brother, if you were in business, would you want someone to suddenly do such a thing to you?"
"Fifth brother, when did you have so many women's kindness in your head!" Guo Xingzheng said, "The world will only see your strength, but they won't care how strong you are, you are soft on others, others will not be merciful to you!" Therefore, you can't hesitate, if you don't kill people, you will be killed by others sooner or later, where is your courage to slaughter cities in the world, and the brave state of fighting like a demon?"
"I ...... I ......" Xia Yanfeng has nothing to say, because the world itself is cruel, and he used to be so ruthless. In the Heavenly Continent, only the strong are worthy of talking about the law, and the weak can only be slaughtered, just like insects, at the mercy of others.
"Have you figured it out? Fifth brother?"
"Of course I know what to do, but in case someone finds out......"
"Hehe, don't forget, the Inquisition of the city-state near the Commander-in-Chief is in Glora City. Guo Xing said with a smile, "Even if you kill people everywhere around here, set fires, and rob houses, Suthren will only turn a blind eye to you, the former captain, and it will never be possible to bring you to justice, because in Glora City, we are the king!"
"Huh...... Hehe......" Xia Yan laughed dryly. Yes, we are the king's law, we can ignore the law, we can ignore the rules, we can do whatever we want, because in the city of Glora, we are the powerful, we enjoy special treatment!
Look at their own pampered life now, they live in a mansion, they have carriages and guards to send them off when they travel, the affairs on weekdays are taken care of by their subordinates, the food is all delicacies from the mountains and seas, and they enjoy the right to break the law at will, this day is simply more comfortable than Xia Yanfeng's childhood.
In the thousands of years of the development of human civilization, the rulers have always oppressed the common people at the bottom, kings can kill people at will, and the pets of the nobles are even more valuable than the lives of slaves. The nobles enjoyed the privilege of spending all day drinking, while the commoners could only live in misery most of the time, working as cattle and horses, and never came out.
World civilization has advanced for thousands of years, but it has also regressed for thousands of years, and there is still a clear distinction between the strong and the weak, and perhaps this is also inevitable. In Xia Yanfeng's view, the life of the weak is cheaper than paper, and if you want not to be bullied by the strong, you can only desperately become a strong through your own efforts, but when he finally stood tall among the strong, he found that he always had to rely on his strength to do something to oppress the weak, in order to provide more convenience for himself, this is the so-called "people have to seek it in a high position", Xia Yanfeng does not have the heart of a saint, and he will not be merciful to the weak.
Turning around and leaving without saying a word, Xia Yanfeng's heart was like a mirror, and Guo Xing also saw from Xia Yanfeng's expression that he had made up his mind. Once Xia Yanfeng made up his mind, no one could stop him.
In the suburbs around the city of Glora, there are often passing black market merchants at night, who rely on their wealth and often get a lot of rare treasures and countless fine equipment, some of which are even monopolized by a few blacksmiths. Guo Xing's secret words were to let Xia Yanfeng ambush in the jungle at night, attack and kill the black market merchants, and snatch all the goods they carried.
This is the behavior of a robber, Xia Yanfeng disdains to do this, but the situation forces him to build a supermarket, he has to kill at least ten black market merchants, but according to Guo Xing's recent observations, black market merchants will pass by at least twenty or so every night, after all, this place is the only way for them to travel through the business.
Black market merchants do not have a fixed market, they are not transferred soldiers, their combat effectiveness is extremely limited, and they also do not have any identity background, do not belong to any family, and completely rely on their own shrewd minds to work hard to make money on the rivers and lakes, and because they like to be alone, they will not hire bodyguards to escort them when they travel, and the number of black market merchants themselves is also quite a lot, and there is not much contact with each other, so as long as the scene is cleaned up, no one will notice the death of a dozen or so merchants.
According to the common laws of the major city-states of the Terran race, the act of murdering a merchant and robbing his belongings is a crime of robbery, and the crime is convicted according to the value of the property he has robbed, and the minimum sentence is five or six years in prison, while Xia Yanfeng wants to kill ten merchants, and the goods he loots are enough to be sentenced to death!
Of course, Xia Yanfeng also prepared for the worst, if he was discovered, he would immediately kill the person who saw him, and once he was accused, he would also die and not admit it, anyway, Sutron was his own person, and he would not worry about being convicted at all.
Everything is ready to hunt the merchants, just wait for night to fall, and the network of light arrays composed of thunder elements has been densely spread between the jungles, just wait for the black market merchants to take the bait, and then die in an instant!
