Chapter Twenty-Six: The Bottom of the Chain of Contempt
This colorful strange bird has appeared in the field of vision for the third time.
The famous philosopher Kim Ki Bachedan once said that once is accidental, twice is coincidence, and three times is that there is a necessary cause and effect.
Wei Chaoyang felt that this was no accident.
Just watching, the colorful strange birds have already fluttered down.
Wei Chaoyang immediately ran in the direction where the strange bird landed.
Soon, he saw the strange bird again.
It was standing quietly on a plane tree, motionless, as if it were a lifeless dead thing.
In front of the sycamore tree was the main entrance of Building No. 3 of the Tianke University Men's Dormitory, where he had lived for several months.
There is a tandem bike parked in front of the door.
Yan Ruoning stepped on the pedals with one foot, supported the ground with one foot, and her snow-white straight long legs shone in the sun.
Seeing Wei Chaoyang trotting over, a faint smile appeared on her face, but she immediately straightened her face again, raised her head and gestured, and kicked the car away.
The colorful birds in the plane trees spread their wings and chased after them.
Sure enough, he was following Yan Ruoning.
Wei Chaoyang was already prepared and raised his mobile phone to capture.
But after taking the picture, when he looked back at the photos, he couldn't help but froze.
In the photo, there are houses, trees, and sky, but there are no colorful birds and red light covering the sky!
It's understandable that the red light can't be photographed, this thing is probably a manifestation of luck, and the human eye can't see it, and there is no need to expect ordinary mobile phones to shoot it.
But why didn't the colorful bird get photographed?
To be on the safe side, he shot ten times in a row.
But in all the photos, there is no such strangely shaped colorful bird.
Wei Chaoyang muttered a little in his heart.
Isn't that bird an ordinary bird that a normal person has seen?
Since he was knocked out of this special function, he can see too many things, and he can't tell where normal people should be able to see and what normal people shouldn't see.
If this continues, sooner or later it will be identified as fantasy schizophrenia.
Wei Chaoyang was a little worried, and decided that no matter what he saw in the future, as long as there were others, he would definitely maintain a slow reaction and judge from the reactions of others.
It's just that all his energy was spent thinking about the problem of this strange bird, so he forgot the gesture that Yan Ruoning made before leaving.
When Old Man Li rushed to the school meeting, he saw Wei Chaoyang sitting on the edge of the flower bed in front of the dormitory building, looking around, like a penguin in the lower right corner of the monitor who was trying to go online, with a clear and straightforward sadness on his face, as if he suddenly saw the frog at the bottom of the well in the truth of the world, and he was very confused and worried.
"What are you looking at?"
Old man Li looked left and right, and he didn't see anything else except for the stupid and cute male college students.
Wei Chaoyang said sadly: "I am remembering my former college life......
Old man Li was shocked, "You were fired?" Did you do something to your female teacher last night? It's not me saying you, this young man has to think twice about doing things, you can't be too impulsive, you ......"
Wei Chaoyang, "You were just expelled, I just think that after meeting you, this matter will be the same and the same, one after another, and the peaceful and happy college life in the future will probably be all disturbed by you." ”
Old man Li, "......"
What is it, what is called a rake, what is called reversing black and white, it is really unreasonable, what should I do if I want to hit someone!
looked at Wei Chaoyang's arm, which was almost as thick as his thigh.
Forget it, you can't beat it, bear with it, it's a golden thigh, it's not a golden thigh, you don't need to fight, just hold it.
Old man Li decisively shifted the question, "I just asked about the recent market, what about the committee, the protection purchase price is still 30,000, as long as it is perfect, the cheapest, the advantage is, do not pick the type, come to the door, and settle the payment at one time."
The price of several luck companies ranges from 50,000 to 100,000, but the luck is required to be complete, can not be missing, and the score type, generally speaking, the price will be higher if the good ingredients account for more. Moreover, they have to bet one to pay three, as a deposit for luck, and the payment will be paid after three months without problems.
Among them, the highest purchase price is OSI, and the base price can reach 60,000 yuan. ”
Wei Chaoyang was a little surprised, "It's not that OSI Company only operates Yunling, and it can't even look at the number of luck, how can it still buy luck at a high price?" ”
Old man Li said: "There will be loss when the spirit is rented to customers who do not match the life palace, it is said that Fuxi Company has a secret technique, which can use other luck to supplement the loss of the spirit and extend the life of the spirit." After all, it will cost hundreds of millions of dollars to take a random Yunling out, and if you rent it a few times, you will have to return to the furnace for cultivation, so it won't be a big loss?
Alas, what did you say you did with that luck spirit to the Qiu family girl, if you sell it, you don't have to hate money for anything now. No, you don't have to do anything, and all of a sudden you are financially free. ”
Until now, he couldn't understand Wei Chaoyang's operation.
Wei Chaoyang said: "Okay, don't grind about this kind of past thing, you really need to sell Yunling, I still have butterflies, no more, you can sell it when you have been tempered into Yunling." Let's go, let's sell all this bad luck first. ”
Old man Li asked, "Sell it to?" ”
"Sell to the commission, it doesn't matter if the price is low. I haven't settled the matter with OSI yet, so it's best not to get in touch with these luck companies first. ”
Wei Chaoyang decided to sell to the committee, and there was another consideration, that is, he was not familiar with Old Man Li in essence, and he had only known each other for two days, so it was impossible for Old Man Li to believe whatever he said, so looking for an official agency like the Committee with the right to manage and supervise was to be more reliable, so that it would not happen that someone would sell it and count the money.
The committee's operational department responsible for the acquisition of luck is located in Tokai District.
This is the old urban area of Haicheng, which gradually fell into decline with the development of the city, the streets are narrow, the community is old, and there are few pedestrians in broad daylight, revealing the smell of twilight.
Old man Li drove an electric tricycle to pull Wei Chaoyang to an old-fashioned five-story building located in the depths of the alley.
On the side of the old double-open glass door hangs a sign with the words "Jindu Trading Company".
Inside the door is a hall with an area of more than hundreds of square meters.
A tall counter divides the room in two.
There are eleven office windows at the counter, and the number plate is still an old wooden medallion, and the paint is a little peeling.
Behind each window sat an old man, dressed in a gray robe that could only be seen in TV dramas, and small round glasses, almost like carved out of a mold.
There were not many people in the hall, not even twenty people, except for those who were doing business in front of the window, they all sat honestly on their chairs, quietly, without any sound at all.
As soon as Wei Chaoyang followed Old Man Li into the door, he saw the welcome guy standing on the side of the door, who was also wearing a long robe, greeted him and asked them what business they were going to do, his tone was cold, and there was no expression on his face, and he owed him three hundred hangs when he entered the door.
On the contrary, the old man Li, who was a guest, was actually very polite to the young man who was close to him, and when he spoke, he unconsciously collapsed his waist first.
Hearing that Old Man Li said that he wanted to sell the newly caught luck, the welcome guy impatiently told them to go to the east side door to handle it, and the hall had long since stopped doing the business of buying luck.
Old man Li responded with a smile and hurriedly took Wei Chaoyang out.
Wei Chaoyang felt that this welcome was inexplicable, "His attitude is too bad, no matter how we say that we are also guests at the door, how can he welcome guests like this?" ”
Old man Li was accustomed to it, "The institutions of the committee are like this, this is a good attitude." In the eyes of others, it is the customer who buys the luck, and we sell the goods like this, just like the flowers who come to the door to beg, and it is a great kindness to be willing to accept our luck. Alas, we fortune hunters have always been at the bottom of the chain of discrimination in the industry. Of course, if it wasn't necessary, I wouldn't be able to come here to get angry, I haven't been here for more than a year. ”
"Doesn't the Commission need someone to give them hunting? Why do you look down on you fortune hunters? ”
"The People's Committee is a big deal, and the world's Yunling is within their monitoring range, and if the Yunling is about to mature, they will arrange an auction of the right to use it, and a big company like OSI will immediately rush up to send money. In the eyes of the committee, all the hunters are useless and always prone to accidents, and they want us to be destroyed. ”
"The Council can monitor all the spirits in the world?"
Wei Chaoyang couldn't help but think of the map full of light spots.
Isn't there such a map for this powerful committee?
So do they have anything to do with the ever-changing palace in the sky?
Thinking of this, Wei Chaoyang regretted that he owed too much, what did he do by stabbing that eyeball, but he just got the identity of a social animal, and he couldn't bring down any labor protection.
Old man Li said: "Yes, if they don't have this ability, why do they talk about things, why do they let everyone in the circle listen to them?" No one can escape their surveillance, and as long as they are close to maturity, they will be auctioned by the committee as soon as possible, without exception. ”
Wei Chaoyang felt a vague thought flash.
The thought came too suddenly, flashed too quickly, and when he reacted, he had disappeared without a trace, and he couldn't find it again.
I just vaguely feel that this idea seems to be extremely important and has a lot to do with me.
He thought hard and thought about it, but he couldn't remember it anyway.
After thinking about it for a long time, he turned to the side door with Old Man Li.
I saw that there was a small gray sign hanging on the side door, with the words "acquisition station" written on it.
The door is only a small door with a single opening, or iron, it has not been cleaned for a long time, and it is rusty, which is very consistent with this building and this old community.
Pushing the door in, I saw that the front door was still a high counter, with only two windows, and behind the windows sat an old man in a long shirt and small round glasses.
At this time, someone is doing business in front of a window.
In his forties, wearing rough workmanship camouflage, bald head, standing in front of the counter, tilting his head, stretching his neck, with a flattering smile on his face, he said in a low voice: "This is completely intact luck, you give a little more picking, a little more, it's really not easy for me to catch it, how can it be worth fifteen thousand?" You give such a price, bad rules, and then give me some teasing, even if it's 20,000. ”
The glasses old man sitting behind the window sneered, rolled his eyes, and looked down at the bald man from the bottom of the lens, "What's the matter, you want to tell me about the rules of the committee?" Okay, then let's talk about it, although your luck is perfect, it is much thinner than normal luck, and this kind of luck can only come from one kind of person, that is, dying and not dying. Old Five, how did you hunt this luck, didn't you have a little force in your heart?
I'm willing to take your luck, just to give you the greatest care, don't be embarrassed, and dare to say that I have bad rules? Here, what I'm saying is the rule! If you're not convinced, okay, go out and sue me, and see if you can stand up to the investigation, or if I can stand the inspection? Hey, if you don't die, you took it down, what kind of behavior is this? What are the penalties? You tell me? ”
Hearing what the old man with glasses said, the bald man didn't have the slightest temper like a deflated ball, and said dejectedly: "You can't talk nonsense, my luck is hunted from the head of the dead by rules...... Forget it, forget it, a bad luck, fifteen thousand is fifteen thousand, transfer it to me. ”
Old man Li pulled the lively Wei Chaoyang by the hand, came to the empty window, raised his head and said with a smile: "Let's sell two newly hunted luck." ”
The old man behind the window didn't raise his eyes or open his eyes, but raised his hand and pushed a round box over.
The box was the size of a palm, and the four walls were carved with complex runes, with a faint silver light shining between the lines.
Wei Chaoyang was stunned.
As soon as he saw the runes on the box, a name popped into his mind.
Basic storage and transportation array.
What follows is the intricate and detailed dismantling of the runes.
It's as if the knowledge that I have learned before but forgotten will be remembered again after a little introduction.
And that's not all.
And then there's more and more to come.
For example, the eighteen methods of conventional storage and transportation, the daily warmth and maintenance tips of luck, and the storage precautions for the three-day entry, you can also be an expert in collection and transportation, and the storage precautions of the qi number spirit......
Good guy, there is nothing, swarming and roaring, it is like a mudslide, which makes Wei Chaoyang black on the spot, his body shook, and he almost didn't fall to the ground.
He hurriedly held on to the counter and steadied himself before he could recover his strength.
It's just that this one was pressed a little heavier, and the counter slammed loudly, startling the old man behind the window, staring up at Wei Chaoyang, and said unhappily: "What's the matter, you want to make trouble?" I don't think you want to sell your luck in the future! Lao Li, who are you bringing here? ”
"No, no, he was just hit by a car the day before yesterday, and he hasn't recovered yet, he didn't mean to, you have to bear with me." Old man Li said a few words with a smile, and stabbed Wei Chaoyang, "Hurry up and put the luck up." ”
Wei Chaoyang had already recovered from the impact at this time, shook his head, and transported what he was holding to the box and put it.
If you only put one, you can't put the second one, so you have to keep the rest in your hands.
"Catch it with your bare hands?" The glasses old man behind the counter was a little surprised, and finally looked at Wei Chaoyang with his eyes, carefully looked back and forth, and then picked up a magnifying glass-like object from the side, looked at it according to the luck in the box, cleared his throat, and said loudly, "Weak and scattered luck one, eight thousand!" ”
Wei Chaoyang blurted out: "Eight thousand? Isn't the protection price 30,000? ”
The old man let out a sneer that was exactly the same as that of his colleagues around him, "Lao Li, where did you bring such a flute-headed green?" ”
Old man Li hurriedly dragged Wei Chaoyang, signaled him not to talk nonsense, turned his head and said with a smile: "Young man, just came out to do this business, don't be like him, although this luck is a little different, but it can be regarded as perfect, you always give it a little more teasing, we still have a few luck here, the quality is average, the price is right, and it will be sold." ”
When the old man with glasses heard this, he became interested, "Yo, Lao Li, you are so capable, can you still hunt several lucks at once?" Come, come, bring them all up and I'll see, and if it's really like you say, I'll give you a good price." ”
After speaking, he pushed several small boxes over.
Old man Li pushed Wei Chaoyang and motioned for him to send all the luck he was carrying.
Wei Chaoyang held his breath and put the remaining few bad luck in the box.
After the old man with glasses examined them one by one, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Although they are all worthless bad luck, each one of them is full of energy, which is really unprecedented.
The commission is naturally useful for the acquisition of bad luck, so when it comes to acquisition, regardless of the type, the more successful the luck, the higher the purchase price.
Luck like this, which has no defects at all, will generally only appear when the life palace is 100% matched.
A 100% match for the Destiny Palace is unavoidable, with only a 1 in a million chance.
A person who can have 100% luck that matches the fate palace, even if it is bad luck, can also become the most eye-catching successful person among millions of people!
Such a person's luck is not so easy to hunt.
First, similar people are basically under the supervision of the committee, and secondly, the foundation of 100% matching luck in the fate palace is extremely strong, and it is impossible to hunt it by means of transporting hunters.
As far as the luck of Old Man Li is concerned, the hunter is also worthy of hunting, and the dying man is about to escape!
Therefore, these undamaged luck could not have been hunted by Old Man Li.
Then it must be the handiwork of this young man.
The old man with glasses narrowed his eyes and looked at Wei Chaoyang carefully again, comparing it with the young hunters from the few hunter families who were in the limelight in his memory.
Only by relying on the family's vast network and strength can they hunt this kind of consummation-level luck.
The Si family is known as a genius boy, and it is precisely in this way that he can repeatedly hunt for good luck.
And a wild hunter like Old Man Li, who has no family background and no roots, can't hunt a good fortune for three years, so he can only rely on these bad fortunes to maintain his income, and he has to hand over a large amount of his income to the Hunter Alliance as the cost of monopolizing a hospital.
Catching luck with bare hands, being able to catch multiple luck at once, all of which are at the level of perfection.
Based on this, the old man with glasses made a preliminary profile of Wei Chaoyang in his heart.
Born in a hunter family, but he is not a descendant of the key training, so he is not qualified to hunt for good luck, and can only rely on the family information network to hunt more bad luck to make up for his reputation.
When a shipment is made to the Commission, an exclusive record is generated.
The committee ranks and publishes these records on a monthly basis.
It doesn't matter whether it is good luck or bad luck to sell, just by quantity.
After all, whether you can hunt good luck depends on your luck and the forces behind you, and how much luck you can hunt depends on your own strength.
Therefore, this ranking has a high authority among fortune hunters.
Therefore, young luck hunters who are just starting out would rather endure extremely low purchase prices, and will also sell their hunts to the committee to make a list.
As long as the list is successful, the reputation can spread, and there can be more and better choices for the future career direction.
Learn to sell literature and martial arts to the emperor's family.
After the luck hunters came out, most of them also had to find jobs, and there were actually a few people like Old Man Li who fought alone.
The top few of the rankings have always been the focus of recruitment by major luck companies.
If you don't want to join the company, you can also join the hunter family, or you can open your own hunting studio and form a team.
Today, the initiators of several world-renowned private fortune hunter teams are all fortune hunters who used to be at the top of the list.
This list will not only be stared at by major luck companies and hunter families, but also by wealthy people who know about it, and invest in those on the list who are interested in forming a team independently.
This is not only about capital operation, but also about getting the right of first refusal for good luck, and even customizing a team that requires priority to hire an investment to help you hunt for luck.
Hunter teams like this also have a ranking on the committee's side, based on the type and quality of luck they hunt.
If you want to participate in the relevant rankings, you can only participate in the team rankings, not the individual rankings.
However, Old Man Li obviously failed to attract investment, and after decades of work, he is still a leather bag company, with one brother for all employees, and he cheats money by being a micro-businessman.
After making a determination about Wei Chaoyang, the old man with glasses had a plan in his heart.
Like this, a guy who still needs to rely on his own hunting luck to brush the rankings is also a little transparent that no one cares about in the hunter family, and he doesn't need to care at all, but they can endure any low price in order to brush the ranking!
If you don't lower the price at this time, when will you wait?
These old men who sit at the counter also have KIP, and the lower the purchase price, the higher the achievement.
The protective price is just the bottom line for people to see.
And the bottom line, once it is clear, is used to break through.
"What a bunch of bad luck!" The old man with glasses knocked on the table contemptuously, "Okay, give you Lao Li a face, eight thousand and five one, I have collected it all here, it is not easy to see you, give you an expedited, this month will be included in the ranking, fill in the form!" ”
Throw a piece of paper and a pen over the ground.
Wei Chaoyang looked at the watch, looking inexplicable, "Do you still need to fill in the form to sell a fortune?" ”
Old man Li didn't say anything about the ranking.
In Old Man Li's cognition, Wei Chaoyang is a tall refiner, so naturally he doesn't need to participate in the ranking of fortune hunters.
Old man Li didn't care about explaining, and said to the old man with glasses: "You misunderstood, he doesn't want to be ranked, he just came to exchange some money for emergencies, and then teased the price." I know the rules, you can tease again! ”
"Not in the rankings? So what are you doing with all this bad luck? Isn't there something wrong with that? ”
The old man with glasses was a little surprised, and looked at Wei Chaoyang, "You can think about it, because of the things in Thailand, the number of hunting shipments this month is not too large, if you can be ranked this month, there is a great chance that you can get into the top three hundred, and after this village, there will be no such shop." ”
Wei Chaoyang looked at Old Man Li, waiting for an explanation.
Old man Li said: "The Fortune Hunter has a ranking list, which has nothing to do with you. ”
Wei Chaoyang didn't think much about it, and the old man with glasses couldn't help but be interested, "You're not a fortune hunter?" What kind of profession is that? Serving as a doctor? Mr. Replenishment? Courier? ”
Old man Li took out his mobile phone and cleared his throat.
Damn, this damn old man is going to engage in that kind of shameful PLAY-style introduction again!
This is absolutely not a no!
Wei Mingyang hurriedly snatched Old Man Li's mobile phone, pushed the person aside, and said to the old man with glasses: "I'm just here to sell a fortune, what do you care about me, hurry up and settle the account, how much money can I collect?" ”
The old man with glasses was not happy, and leaned back in the chair, "Sell it for eight thousand and five thousand, it is impossible to raise the price, the market has been sluggish recently, you can go to those luck companies to inquire, and see if the price I give here is fair!" ”
After asking the price here, do you want to sell it at another price?
There are no doors!
The committee has a working group, and all the company's acquirers are in the group, and as long as he sends out the news, no one dares to cross this price!
Whoever dares to offend the committee, that is not to do it!
The old man with glasses glanced at Old Man Li proudly, thinking that this Leng Touqing doesn't understand, you Old Li Tou still doesn't understand? Since you're here, do you want to sell it elsewhere? Don't say you can't sell it this time, don't even think about selling it in the future!
Old man Li hurriedly stabbed Wei Chaoyang, briefly explained the reason for this place in a low voice, and persuaded: "Otherwise, sell it, it's a big deal not to come here next time." ”
Wei Chaoyang lost his temper, "Isn't this a clear bully?" It's a big deal, it's not for sale! ”
The old man with glasses laughed, "This luck is out of the palace, everyone knows that it can last for a few days, if you don't sell it, you can only watch it dissipate, don't regret it when the time comes!" ”
looked at Wei Chaoyang with a smug expression on his face.
Leaving the palace of life to store luck for a long time is a high-level secret art mastered by the committee alone, there is only one in the world, there is no other number, all the equipment in the world that can store luck for a long time is sold from the committee, the number is extremely rare, even the hunter family will not be willing to use it to store these bad luck!
If you don't sell, you lose even more!
Who knows, hearing his words, Wei Chaoyang laughed and squinted at the old man with glasses, "Do you think you can leave the palace of life and store luck for a long time?" ”
