Chapter 30: News of the Purchase
April 30, 2107.
After the chaos, order gradually returned to normal, and all settlements in China slowly resumed the May Day holiday, but nominally changed from the previous Labor Day to the current celebration of the Federation of Human Development and Evolution, which began on May 8 after the end of the holiday.
In Xiang Yu's space container, the fiery red giant wolf was still sleeping, and the white fur ball seemed to have grown a little bit at some point, Xiang Yu looked at it carefully, and made sure it was not an illusion.
Some fresh-looking elixirs were lying quietly on the ground, and after careful consideration, Xiang Yu decided to go to Kyoto to settle down, and then use the health elixir, a warrior-level recovery potion, which is not needed for the time being, and he has prepared a lot, and he also gave Chong Ruixing more than a dozen.
There are three clear and translucent red elixirs left, which are Xiang Yu's improved blood-burning elixirs, and the main raw materials are some flesh and blood of the sixth-level crocodile beast and the blood of the snow-capped mountain storm ape, so the color looks blood-red. To save trouble, Xiang Yu directly named it Blood Burning Elixir ++.
At this time of year, there are many people who go to Kyoto settlements for the anniversary celebrations, and the number of commuter buses going there increases.
Many people don't even go to the various conferences and fairs of the festival itself, but to see the excitement, and in fact there are more ordinary hunters than the three major guilds who go there at this time of year.
Fortunately, it is still relatively early, there are still more than eight days before the start of the celebration, and there are not many people at the bus point in the square, but there are still a lot more than when Xiang Yu sent Tong Hui away yesterday.
Originally, he was going to go back in two days.
Yesterday, when he was making these potions that he hadn't yet invented, he couldn't help but think of someone, so he was going to visit Kyoto.
Then go and see if this person is there, if so, he will definitely be just an ordinary junior pharmacist now, if he can turn him into an ally, various plans and ideas will definitely be implemented more smoothly.
It is said that it is a shuttle, but in fact, there are not too many times a day, and each bus can take up to 50 people, and some will be added before the festival is about to start, the main reason is not that it is restricted by cars, but by people.
After the Great Change, except for the settlements, the outside world has become a world of beasts and beasts.
Although the living space of human beings is constantly expanding under the drive of strength improvement, the current situation is that the average strength of the fierce beasts outside is basically one level higher than the average human level.
The instincts of beasts were more sensitive and there was plenty of food just now, and humans died a large number of humans during gluttony because of the lack of food, and because of the problem of mental ** need to alternately coordinate, the evolution rate of human beings was much slower than that of fierce beasts in the early stage.
Therefore, there will be a warrior soul-level person as a team leader on each shuttle, and the strength is generally around the fifth level of the warrior soul, it is conceivable that there was the first warrior-level human more than forty years ago, and now every car must be equipped with a warrior-level leader, what a luxury thing.
But there is no way, every year during the celebration, the Arms Control Bureau and the Federal Assembly will also join forces to hire some powerful battle spirit-level teams to be the bus leader, and the remuneration is very rich.
Xiang Yu got on the bus and paid a fare of 50,000 yuan, and there were dozens of people on this trip, which was not much money, so these shuttles were basically operated by the Arms Control Bureau and the Federal Assembly at a loss.
Even so, 50,000 energy points can only be afforded by the people of the three major societies or hunters with some strength, and ordinary people who have not evolved are generally regarded as pariahs before the great discussion of the structure of human society.
This is not shameful, at the critical moment of human survival, it is the power of evolutionary man who blocks the pace of the beast, and without evolution, it is basically difficult to find a suitable job to do, which leads to the uneven distribution of wealth in society now, most of which are concentrated in the hands of powerful institutions and hunters.
Just got in the car, there are not many people inside, the driver is a guy who looks fat, it seems that his strength is not bad, there should be a warrior above level six.
There are more than fifty seats, and now there are more than a dozen people sitting scattered, Xiang Yu walked to the back row, looked at a position where there was no one by the window on the right, and sat down.
The square outside was full of people, from the Potion Society, the Battle Society, and the more secretive Explorer Society, who were on the upper floors of the sword-shaped building, and there were fewer people who went there.
Their services are not mainly for a large and wide range of people, explorers learn to produce, but not everything can be afforded, and occasionally some particularly good things are thrown into the auction house, which is the only way for the majority of people to get acquainted with them.
A thin monkey-like guy walked far away in the square, his eyes were purring, and he swiped his card before getting into the car, with a painful expression on his face.
After getting in the car, I looked around, and saw Xiang Yu sitting there alone, steady, his eyes were calm, his eyes lit up, he walked over and sat next to Xiang Yu.
On the last day of April, it was a good day, the sun was warm and warm, and the people queuing up to get on the bus below were so sunburned that they covered their eyes with their hands.
The car started slowly, and the chassis below squeaked, but Xiang Yu was not worried that the car would fall apart at all, in order to consider the protective performance, the whole vehicle was cast with Krabi alloy mixed with some modified titan alloy.
"Hey, buddy, you're going to Kyoto too?"
The skinny guy next to him opened his mouth to speak, interrupting Xiang Yu's thoughts.
"My name is Hu Jinming, hehe, I've been saving money for a long time, and I can finally go to Kyoto in time for the celebration. ”
Seeing that Xiang Yu didn't speak, this guy didn't feel embarrassed, but introduced himself there.
Xiang Yu smiled and responded:
"It seems that you are an ambitious person, and after saving so much money, you have always wanted to visit Kyoto. ”
As soon as the thin monkey heard Xiang Yu's words, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he continued:
"Dude, I didn't say it, as soon as I got in the car, the people in this car looked at you as the most pleasing to the eye and had an extraordinary temperament. ”
Xiang Yu also laughed when he heard it, this guy is so flamboyant, but everyone loves to listen to good words.
"My name is Xiang Yu, don't lift me up, if you have anything to say, just say it. ”
Hu Jinming looked at Xiang Yu's slightly smiling expression, scratched his head embarrassedly and said:
"Actually, it's nothing, it's just that I only have more than 50,000 energy points on my body, and I basically have nothing left after paying the fare, so I'm thinking about how to change some money, which I can see as soon as I get in the car, the whole car must be your most generous, don't ask me why, I have seen people since I was a child, and I have seen people very accurately, what is this person's temperament, and the personality can be seen at a glance. ”
Xiang Yu squinted his eyes and asked funny, "So you want to ask me for money?"
When the thin monkey heard this, he was anxious, and quickly waved his hand and said:
"No, no, no, how can it be begging for money, I never do this kind of untechnical thing. “
After speaking, he lowered his voice, looked around quietly, and then continued to Xiang Yu:
"I'm selling news, although the level of news is generally not high, but I can barely mix food, I met a big news before, and I have been buried in my heart, this has been a month, I feel that I don't sell it for some money, I can't be comfortable in my heart, and I can't sleep well. ”
When Xiang Yu heard this, he was also interested, and asked, "What news, you said to hear it." ”
As soon as the thin monkey saw that Xiang Yu was interested, he was no longer in a hurry, as long as there were customers who were a little interested, there was nothing he couldn't handle.
"Of course I can't say it now, what I want is secret, is it still worth saying it?"
Xiang Yu patted his head and said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I ignored it, then you say, how to trade." ”
The thin monkey turned his head to look at the people in a circle, pointed to the intercom, and said, "We use the intercom to communicate, and I will send you the message." ”
Then he said, "I'll make an offer first, and then you decide if you want this news." ”
Xiang Yu nodded, with a curious look on his face.
The thin monkey glanced around vigilantly and whispered, "One hundred thousand energy points, about this celebration." ”
Xiang Yu thought for a moment and hesitated and asked, "You are too general, what if this news is not worth so much?"
The thin monkey looked entangled and helpless, thought about it and said, "I'll reveal a little more relevant content to you, I can't ask any more." ”
Xiang Yu nodded, and then saw the thin monkey and said, "It has something to do with alien things." ”
The cold hairs on Xiang Yu's back stood up one by one, and a cold air penetrated the entire spine from the bottom up, and he couldn't help shivering. Straight Says:
"I want the news, 100,000 energy points, immediately into your card. ”
When the thin monkey heard this, his face immediately burst into laughter and said: "Don't be in a hurry, give 50,000 first, and give another 50,000 after listening to the news, so it's good for us." ”
Xiang Yu nodded, turned on the intercom on his wrist, swiped the bearer card, and transferred 50,000 energy points to Hu Jinming.
After Hu Jinming received the payment, he pressed it on the intercom and sent it to Xiang Yu, who looked down at the content above:
"The headquarters has received a piece of strange alien ores, energy absorption characteristics, spatial fluctuation characteristics, the seller asked for an auction, the estimated price is more than 300 million, and our specific price is 50,000 energy points, I hope you will provide more support for our work after buying at a low price." ”
The payment was made by the Kyoto Settlement Center Auction House, and the recipient was the headquarters of the Explorers Society!?
After reading it, Xiang Yu's heart was complicated, on the one hand, the so-called aliens were not the category he was worried about, and on the other hand, it was related to the secret transactions of the auction house and the explorer society.
He looked at Hu Jinming in front of him, who was overjoyed to receive the money, with concerned and inquiring eyes.
