Chapter 260: Goal Achieved
Before he realized, the time had already come to past one in the afternoon.
Inside the truck's cargo hold, it was already full of game.
From sixth-tier Black Barbarian Oxen, to fifth-tier Black Mane Pigs, then fourth-tier Wasteland Wolves, third-tier Spiral-horned Sheep……
If it weren't for the weight limit, Jiang Cheng really wanted to wait until nightfall and drive back again.
Ye Ying beside him didn't know what to say.
More than twenty exotic beasts, although the third-tier ones made up half, the remaining fourth-, fifth-, and sixth-tier ones totaled about ten heads; conservatively estimated, it was already over three million.
Split among each person, that's over 1.5 million each.
Her goal of buying an A-level Psychic Weapon was instantly achieved; if tomorrow they could still have this harvest, even a bit less, they could afford an S-level one.
To be honest, she hadn't expected it to go this fast before she came.
"Cang Hai, thank you."
The next second, she turned to look at Jiang Cheng and said seriously.
"Thank me? Heh, no need to be polite, we're cooperating for mutual benefit."
Jiang Cheng laughed.
Let's not talk about anything else; just talk about yesterday's battle.
He didn't even lift a finger, and Ye Ying took care of everything.
If it were him, even if he could win, he'd have to endure a hard fight; it's absolutely impossible to finish it in just a few seconds.
"Mm!"
Ye Ying nodded heavily.
She had never felt as certain as she did now that recruiting Jiang Cheng was the best thing she had ever done.
"The cargo hold is already full; we should head back. It took over an hour to get here, and we've driven even farther out—we probably can't make it back in under two hours. So let's end today's hunt here."
"Sure."
Ye Ying nodded slightly; she also wanted to say that.
Earning over a million a day, what more could one want?
The two got on the main road and drove toward White Pine Village.
The journey was fairly smooth, with no danger encountered, although occasionally they had the feeling of being watched.
Upon reaching the village entrance, this feeling became more obvious.
Because anyone with a bit of experience could tell from the tires' condition that this truck was carrying about eighty to ninety percent of its load, even if not fully loaded.
After seeing the truck off, someone cursed: "Damn, those two went out for a trip; who knows how much game they brought back? Even if it's just third-tier exotic beasts, it'd be worth a million."
"Exactly, if there were fourth- or fifth-tier ones inside, even two million wouldn't cover it!"
"No way?"
Some also expressed doubt.
"These days, is hunting that easy? Getting two or three in a whole day is already good; they've only been out a short while—how could they bring back a truckload of game?"
"Yeah, I also think it's not that simple; maybe they're carrying something else inside?"
"Just find someone to ask, right?"
"So what if you ask? Are you really going to dare to rob them? If they don't come rob us, we're already lucky."
As the words fell, the surroundings suddenly quieted down considerably, and the restless hearts of many also calmed.
"That's right."
Chen Jun and several of his men were completely wiped out, even their truck taken and used as someone else's vehicle.
How could these people be any stronger than Chen Jun's lot? Even if they teamed up?
That wouldn't be a bad method.
But first, everyone's been around for ages, so they're bound to scheme against each other.
Second, even if they succeeded, with so many people, how much could each get? Would it be worth such a huge risk?
Inside Channel No. 3.
Including Cong Yu, everyone stared at the row of game before them, jaws dropping.
Twenty-two exotic beasts!
And three of them are sixth-tier! At this moment, Cong Yu even began to doubt life.
He'd been working here for years, having seen hunting parties of a dozen or so people; although groups of this size often disband due to low profit, a two-person team achieving this level—well, one wouldn't say it never happens, but it's definitely as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.
"Brother, you guys are too strong!"
He turned his head and gave a thumbs-up.
"Just luck."
Jiang Cheng smiled slightly, "Trouble older brother, could you tally up and estimate the price?"
"Sure, I'll do it right away."
Cong Yu first walked up to the three sixth-tier exotic beasts, checking them while announcing their prices.
After about ten minutes, the total price came out.
3.26 million.
"Brother, let me round it up for you—make it 3.3 million."
Cong Yu laughed.
"Alright, thanks then, older brother."
Jiang Cheng laughed.
Pretty close to what he'd estimated on the road.
Adding the 1.56 million he already had, his total funds came to over 3 million.
If we also count the deposit he paid earlier, it's already more than half of 7.2 million.
At this rate, it seems gathering the remaining half won't be too difficult.
"Hey brother, do you have anything else in the car to sell?"
Cong Yu blinked his eyes.
Jiang Cheng understood, and immediately laughed and cried, saying: "Older brother, where are you thinking? We're decent people."
"I understand, I understand."
Cong Yu quickly nodded.
Indeed, honest hunting can earn millions upon millions, so why risk taking food from others? The owners of those guns last time probably also couldn't resist the temptation, wanting to rob these two in front of them, but ended up getting nothing and losing their lives.
After the money arrived, the two drove off, returned to the hotel, and each rested.
Jiang Cheng originally wanted to go to the firm to check on progress, but after thinking it over, he felt it wasn't necessary.
After a couple more days of saving money, going would be the same.
Another two days passed.
These two days, the two still set out at dawn.
The area around White Pine Village is just this big, and exotic beasts aren't like game monsters that respawn when killed.
Thus the time they spent also grew longer and longer.
From just past one in the afternoon to two, then three, when they returned on the third day, the cargo hold wasn't full, only about seven-tenths filled.
If they continue the next couple of days, the harvest will probably be even less.
Fortunately, a group of people with ill intentions attacked while the two were getting out of the car to move the game.
The result was naturally without suspense.
With Ye Ying's assistance, Jiang Cheng didn't even think of dodging; he stood straight in place, taking the sniper shot head-on.
Four people died three; the last one tried to drive away, but Jiang Cheng shot out his tire with one shot, then Ye Ying arrived and easily finished him off.
They seized several guns, which made up for some lost income.
On the way back, Jiang Cheng was in high spirits.
After returning later, he would sell the game in the car and the few guns, and adding yesterday's income, it already exceeded 3 million.
In other words, he had already saved enough for the 7.2 million needed to buy the elixir.
Of course, it's rare to have a quick way to make money.
Jiang Cheng planned to stay here a few more days to earn more money, because even if he had 7.2 million, the Lotus Visualization Method had only just reached mastery, his spiritual power had just reached the level of a Level 1 Spirit Mind Practitioner, and he was only just starting.
But Ye Ying's following words caught him off guard.
