Chapter 184: The Deal Begins
The Night Springs Hotel, like a normal building, has a large basement. And these basements are generally stocked up with some vegetables, meat, eggs, and even snacks and other foods, as well as a lot of bed sheets, quilt covers and other daily necessities, after all, the top ten floors are accommodation.
In the many places where the quilt is stored, remove it and you will find an iron plate with a handle embedded in it. Pull the handle open and you'll find this staircase leading to the next floor, which is the heart of the whole hotel, where the shady exchanges are located.
This second basement floor is all concrete, and the middle is solid, which is a back-shaped corridor. The lights in the hallway are dim and sometimes flickering, creating an eerie atmosphere. In fact, this place is indeed eerie, and many lives have lost their lives here.
In the corridor, only the two sides are lit rooms. The other two corridors are just intersections going back and forth. The black area is divided into two halves, the one near the front door, where traffickers gather, selling living people and performing organ transplants.
Don't underestimate this dim environment, the room for organ transplantation under it is not only empty, clean, hygienic and tidy. The light is also very bright, and the shadowless lamp is so bright that it doesn't fit in with the dimly lit corridor. As for the medical equipment, it is also better than the hospitals in that city. They had a surgeon, and it was better than the hospital. In terms of surgery alone, I'm afraid this underworld is really a little stronger than the hospital.
This is also related to the reality of the situation, it is very normal for a person to die in this year, and it may not take long to change the organ and it will be gone. Therefore, people who are seriously ill in this era, especially the elderly, are more likely to be abandoned the closer they are to the periphery. And those who need to change their organs are naturally those rich people who are not very poor in money.
As mentioned earlier, if you change the organs of the Ability, you can become an E-Class Ability, and you can improve your immunity. Since it's not bad for money, why not change it to a better one? However, regular hospitals do not provide these, and the bodies of the paranormal are sent directly to the research institute. As a result, these surgeons were gradually cut and lost a lot of jobs.
At this time, the underworld told them that there was money to be made, and the underworld promised that they would never extend their black hands to their relatives, and protect the safety of their relatives as much as possible. And now, they are employed again, and they make a lot of money, attracting more people to learn the surgery of organ replacement.
And we talked so much, it was because Lin Jingfeng was going to come here next. However, at this moment, Lin Jingfeng was dragged by the group of people to verify his identity because of his special identity. So we look at the half near the back door, where the middleman makes the difference. Ye Ning didn't need to verify their identities, and soon came to this basement.
The four of them followed the security guard closely and walked through the dark and damp second basement floor. Only dark and distant corners could be heard, and a slight cry came from nowhere, meandering, blackened into the air, and the outline of the sound was washed away, leaving only a thin layer, a whisper of life. The edge of the front doorway of some rooms was faintly covered with a blood-red mist, and the shadowy basement crawled, filled with painful gasps and greedy laughter.
The sound insulation of each room is very good, no matter how the people in the room shout, the sound that can be transmitted to the outside of the house is very hazy. Especially in the few rooms where the surgery was performed, the sound insulation effect was exceptionally good. Ye Ning and the four of them just listened to this faint voice, and a sense of indignation spread to their hearts.
The security guard opened a door, and the light inside the door was surprisingly bright, and the dimness in the corridor was like two worlds, and the eyes of the four people were stunned, and their eyes adapted to the light, and they followed the security guard in. The security guard pointed to the sofa on the side and said coldly: "Let's do it first, Brother Guo will come soon." ”
As soon as I sat down, I saw a sofa in the blind spot of the vision that I had just entered, and three men were sitting on the sofa. The one closest to the door looked the most simple, with his hands folded on his chest and his head propped up. Ye Ning also recognized him at a glance, Li Yin!
The one next to him was wearing a wide black dress, with two sleeves hanging naturally on the sofa, and if you look closely, you can see the difference between the left and right arms. The left sleeve looked fuller, while the right sleeve looked very empty, and he collapsed on the sofa.
The one in the middle looked empty, as if he was seriously ill, and as if he had been hollowed out by the wine, his face was pale.
Li Yin also recognized Ye Ning, both of them knew that they were going to see each other today, and they had already been mentally prepared, even if they hadn't seen each other for two years, the two of them had not changed in the slightest from their complexions to their actions, as if they were uninformed, they regarded each other as pure passers-by, without the slightest emotion.
"What is this?" The empty boy spoke first, he pointed at Ye Ning and them, his voice was low, weak and weak, all reflecting a sense of emptiness.
"Don't worry, three, they're just here to sell the corpses of demon beasts, doesn't this just coincide with your purpose? Everyone, please wait, Brother Guo will be here soon. The security guard said slowly, and walked out of the room, closing the dazzling door, and returning the cloister to darkness.
Some people may ask, isn't buying and selling just one hand to pay and one hand to deliver? Why didn't the goods come down, but the people came down, is it just empty talk?
Yes, it's just empty talk, this is the rule, and whoever comes has to accept it. And it seems that the car was left on it, but in fact, the corpses of those demon beasts have been pried open and taken away. This is mainly due to Brother Guo's arrangement, as long as he looks at the bounty hunters who come and don't know him, he is not familiar with them, and he is more anxious to use the money, and he looks very easy to bully at a glance. Brother Guo will sit on the ground and raise the price and get more oil and water. If they don't agree, Brother Guo will say that he has taken the corpse of the demon beast, so that they have to talk.
This can be said to maximize the immediate benefits, but in the long run, this transaction will be more and more loss-making. But Brother Guo didn't care. But all the people who come to Night City to do business are basically faceless little people, who don't understand the world, or are in a hurry to use money. As long as the other party is sure that the other party is this kind of person, Brother Guo will sit on the ground and start the price, and the price is not much, the kind that the other party can endure if he takes a step back.
And Brother Guo dared to do this because he had Wan Hong's backing behind him, and his theoretical identity was a scientific research member of the Night City Research Institute. Based on these two identities, the bounty hunter did not dare to touch him. Because once the bounty hunter accidentally kills a soldier or scientific researcher, the money earned will be confiscated, and this person will go to the army to work for a day, and if he is not satisfied, he will be killed directly. Bounty hunters, on the other hand, are serious money-making jobs, and if they accidentally kill the wrong person and want to continue making money, they can only go to the underworld, and they don't have to.
Brother Guo wanted to covet this money, but he was also afraid that he would be overturned on the spot by the kind of grumpy person who would not talk properly, trying to use his strength to negotiate the price. Therefore, Brother Guo's self-protection work is very well done.
No, Brother Guo swaggered with five B-level abilities, pretending to walk quickly, plus he himself was an A-level ability, basically no team would dare to provoke him, or even fight.
"Oh, I'm sorry, it's really a little bit on the road, I'm really sorry to be delayed." After waiting for nearly ten minutes, Brother Guo finally arrived with a group of younger brothers. Brother Guo's words were full of apologies, and his tone was also very soft, to dispel everyone's suspicions.
And he came late, of course, on purpose. When he heard that he had a violent temper, he was very anxious, and with his experience in talking about so many transactions, most of these people were fledgling and anxious to use their money to become a bounty hunter. The more sophisticated they are, the more calm their character becomes.
To treat this kind of person, this Brother Guo also has a plan. If you are in a hurry, I will delay, and the delay will be a little longer, and when I negotiate with you, the more anxious you are, the more I will lift, and in the end I can slaughter a sum. Don't look at him, he was only ten minutes late, and the security guard took Ye Ning and them a lot of detours and delayed a lot of time. And Li Yin's group of people came early, and they really had been waiting for a long time.
"Ah, I'm so sorry, I thought it would be done soon, but I didn't expect you to fall asleep while waiting, I'm embarrassed." This Brother Guo is still full of apologies when he speaks, but he just wants to find something else to delay the time, as long as the other party is really in a hurry, he can make a big deal out of this transaction.
"Asleep?!" As soon as he heard this, he wondered for a while, and he quickly thought of who was asleep, and leaned towards the horse arrogantly. What is the situation with this Ma Jiao, I slept for a day yesterday, I was distracted in the car today, and now I am sleeping again! It's an errand! At the same time, he was also a little puzzled, after receiving survival training, Ma Jiao, he had also seen it, and his alertness had improved a lot. And now that someone is talking, he's still sleeping, something is wrong, it's really wrong.
Looking at Ye Ning's squinting eyes, Zhou Chen comprehended, although he couldn't pretend to be fierce on his expression, but he pretended to be this feeling in action, stretched out his hand, quickly, decisively, and viciously came up to the back of Ma Jiao's head.
Ma Jiao was immediately sobered up by this slap, and sat there blankly, motionless, as if he was stunned. At this moment, Ma Jiao's expression seemed to say: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
"He's so tired." Ye Ning saw that Ma Jiao was sober, turned his head to look at Brother Guo, who was standing at the door, standing in front of the five people, and said viciously in an impatient tone: "Talk about business!" ”
Seeing Ye Ning's anxious, cherishing words like gold, he couldn't wait to negotiate immediately. Brother Guo smiled in his heart, and this time he was stable again. The more anxious the other party was, the more he wanted to delay time, turned his head to look at Li Yin and the others, and said slowly: "Don't worry, I'll introduce this boss to the four first." ”
