Chapter 300: Killing the Pig
The two of them blended into the flow of people on the river beach as they quarreled all the way.
After integrating into the flow of people, Zhou Sen has a more intuitive understanding of the planet. On the river beach, it is mainly some small vendors who make a living, their stalls present a chessboard pattern, criss-crossed, selling a variety of things, eating and drinking, and daily consumables, among them, even some feminine products.
What surprised Zhou Sen and Olin the most was that some vendors had very few goods on their stalls, and the most outrageous stall actually had a bottle of bottled water on it.
That's right, it's just a bottle of water, nothing else, and the stall is set up by two brothers, probably in their early teens, and judging by what they're wearing, they're in a very bad situation.
"Why only a bottle of water?" Seeing his pity, Orin couldn't help but lean up and ask the little one.
"We only have money for a bottle of water, and after we sell it, we go back to buy it." The young boy didn't dare to make eye contact with Orin, and said timidly.
"How much?" Orin asked, crouching down to pick up the water.
"Fifty...... Forty-five for you. The younger child glanced at the red bracelet on Orin's hand and hesitated.
"Will you be able to feed the money you earn every day?" Orin asked.
"No ......"
"Almost." The older child replied.
"How much worse?" Orin asked.
"It's almost starvation, but there's no way to buy more...... However, we save a little bit every day and will soon be able to get two bottles of water. The older child laughed.
"You don't seem worried?" Orin looked at the big boy with a smile on his face. She found that the big boy's eyes were much more agile than the little boy's.
"Don't worry, as long as we work hard, we will soon be able to get the capital to sell two bottles of water, and if we work harder, we will soon be able to sell three bottles of water."
"Well, yes, so be it, I'll buy this bottle of water, invest four more bottles of water, and wait until you make money......" Orin liked their indomitable character.
"Little sister, how much money do you have?" The older boy asked, staring at the red bracelet on O'Linhao's wrist.
"What for?" Orin had a look of displeasure on his face.
"Little sister, if we have enough principal, I can make money to help you pay the ransom."
"Are you sure?" Orin asked.
"Sure!" The big boy nodded affirmatively.
"Say, how much principal do you need?" Orin looked at the big boy.
"Miss, how many days do you have?"
"Fifteen days."
"Huh...... I just came today, but there is enough time, I don't know how much the ransom of the young lady is? The older boy asked happily.
"Ten million."
"One...... Ten million ......" the big boy stared at Orin with wide eyes and a look of incredulity.
"Yes, it's 10 million." Orin shrugged.
"This ...... It's a bit difficult...... I thought there were only a few hundred thousand ......," the big boy looked frustrated.
"If you only have a few hundred thousand, you can earn it in fifteen days?" Orin asked curiously.
"We're sure."
"If we have enough principal, will you be able to make 10 million?" Orin asked.
"This ...... It's difficult, but the problem is, you're definitely more than 10 million ransoms. The big boy glanced at the red bracelet on Zhou Sen's wrist.
"What do you mean?"
"Because, those pirates will surely trap you."
"How did you fool us?" Zhou Sen suddenly became interested.
"Did they tell you about a ransom of 10 million?"
"Yes."
"10 million for one person or 10 million for two?"
"......" Zhou Sen and Orin looked at each other, they actually ignored the question, and the group of pirates did not say whether it was one person or two people.
"If the two of you are men, there will definitely be no problem with the ransom of 10 million, but you are a man and a woman, and the young lady is so beautiful, it is worth it here, not to mention 10 million, even 50 million is worth it, so they will definitely cheat you."
"So they didn't even think about letting me go in the first place?" There was a hint of anger on Orin's face.
"Hmm."
"Then why don't they just offer a little higher?" Zhou Sen frowned.
"Xiao Kexing has a rule, except for well-known figures, the ransom of ordinary people cannot exceed 10 million, and if the ransom exceeds 10 million, you have to go to Michel Castle to report the ruling, pirates are generally too lazy to bother and will directly offer 10 million, but in fact, the young lady is beautiful and is a priceless treasure, if they leave the young lady, how much money can be earned back, it must be more than 10 million prices, naturally they want to pit you." The big boy said.
"Humph!" Orin gritted her silver teeth.
"Besides, your current identity doesn't pit anyone you pit anyone." The big boy laughed.
"What is our current identity?" Olin and Zhou Sen glanced at each other and asked in unison.
"Recently, a large number of scammers have been swaggering and deceiving Xiao Kexing pretending to be the bandit Zhou Sen and the big reporter Olin, and the pirates are so annoyed that they naturally want to be ruthless, and the beauties like the big reporter Olin are the most popular in Baihuayuan, and it is said that there have been five Olin's impostors who have been sent to Baihuayuan to pick up customers." A hint of cunning flashed in the big boy's eyes.
"......" Orin couldn't keep his mouth shut.
"The fake Orin was sent to the Hundred Gardens, what about the fake bandit Zhou Sen?" Zhou Sen asked with a wry smile.
"Three of them have their legs broken and are begging along the street, and you should run into them when you walk forward, and two of them are missing, probably killed by someone."
“……”
"But don't worry, as long as you don't make trouble, don't deceive people, and pay the ransom, no one will do anything to you, here, everyone is still quite civilized, otherwise, the owner of Fort Michelle is not a vegetarian."
"You say, how much principal do you need to earn 20 million?" Orin asked.
"If a few million are still possible, but twenty million...... Fifteen days, impossible...... It's too difficult, we can't guarantee it. The older boy hesitated and shook his head.
"Zhou Sen, how much cash do you have?" Orin asked Zhou Sen.
"More than half a million."
"Let them make us money." Orin said.
"Are you sure?" Zhou Sen's deep eyes looked at Orin.
"Sure!" Orin cut the railroad.
"Okay."
Zhou Sen sighed, took off his backpack, took out five unopened bundles of large cash from the backpack and handed them to the big boy. All this money was put into the space button by Ouyang Fei, and now, it has finally come in handy.
"Little sister, don't worry, we will work hard!" The older boy looked at Orin with a determined expression.
"Well, come on!" Orin touched the big boy's head with a look of relief.
Under the watchful eyes of the two boys, Orin left the poor little stall with a bottle of water.
"Give it to you." Orin handed the water to Zhou Sen.
"I don't drink it, this water is too expensive, 500,000 bottles, probably the five star fields can't find more expensive water than this." Zhou Sen did not receive water.
"Maybe they can help us make 20 million." Orin laughed.
"Don't worry, don't daydream, let alone earn 20 million, it's all pipe dreaming if you want to get the principal back." Zhou Sen said with a smile.
"What do you mean?"
"Do you understand the pig killing plate?" Zhou Sen shrugged.
"Ah...... You...... You say they're liars? Orin was dumbfounded.
"Or else?"
"Are you sure?!"
"I'm sure!" Zhou Sen is very sure.
"How do you see that?"
"You don't need to look, you have to see what kind of place it is, this is Xiao Ke Xing, it is the base camp of pirates, here, cheating and abduction are commonplace, in this environment, do you think the two little boys are good people?"
"Maybe they're just here like us."
"If they just settled here, it is natural that there is no such thing as a pig killing plate, but the problem is that they know the rules of the game here, and even know the hundred gardens that they shouldn't know at their age, do you think this is what a child who has just been displaced here can do?"
"That ......"
"If they weren't liars, and they had been here for a long time, with the hard work and diligence of those two brothers, do you think their principal would only be enough to buy a bottle of water? He used a bottle of water, which was to set up a pig-killing plate, specifically to attract some newcomers, such as you. ”
"I don't believe it, I don't believe they're liars!"
"Or, if you don't believe me, let's go back and see, I promise, their little booth has been removed."
"But the removal of the small stalls doesn't mean anything, what if they buy goods and find a bigger place to operate?" Orin argues that she can't accept that she has been deceived, after all, she is a well-known reporter in the five star fields, a reporter who has traveled from south to north and seen the world.
"Huh." Zhou Sen smiled.
"Okay, I'll assume they're liars for a while, but why didn't you warn me?" Orin looked at Zhou Sen dissatisfied.
"I remind you, you don't necessarily believe it, even if you don't give them 500,000, you will have a pimple in your heart, thinking that they are not liars, and for me, 500,000 is a trivial thing compared to the mustard in your heart, so I won't remind you, besides, you are my partner, in the future, you have to be alone, and this time you should pay some tuition." Zhou Sen said with a smile.
"Hey...... What you say always has a point, but I can't tell you, well, in fifteen days, I'll come to them, and I'll see what they have to say to me! Orin gritted her teeth.
"You'll never find the truth."
"Why?" Orin was stunned.
"The reason is very simple, within these fifteen days, our identities will definitely be exposed in advance, and when the time comes, those two brothers will learn that I am the number one bandit in the interstellar, and they will definitely lie and deceive you one after another, and send you away with just an excuse for losses, and the worst result is to return 500,000 to you, what can you do with them?"
"I want to know the truth!" Orin pursed his lips and looked at Zhou Sen.
"It's easy to find out the truth, we just have to go back and look for them, of course, they are definitely not there, but we can ask the vendors around us and someone will tell us...... Forget it, it's not bad to spend 500,000 to sell a lesson, let's go shopping happily. ”
"Let's go, I want to know the truth." Ao Lin took Zhou Sen's hand and walked back.
Zhou Sen could only smile bitterly, it was obvious that if Orin was not sure whether she had been deceived, she had no intention of shopping.
