Chapter 25: 025 Trade

~7 min read 1,280 words

Although Zhang Bei didn't have any expression on his face, he was already laughing wildly inside.

It's here, it's here, someone finally took the bait!

He reached out and took a Settlement Token from behind him: "This thing can establish a settlement."

Zhang Ya reached out and took it, beginning to check the information on her wristwatch.

Soon, Zhang Ya took a deep breath and looked at Zhang Bei: "Name your price."

She knew that Zhang Bei being able to take out the token meant he was waiting for them to come to his door.

Zhang Bei squinted his eyes: "Mission Scrolls and various Transcendent Items."

A trace of doubt flashed in Zhang Ya's eyes: "You don't want weapons?"

"Just these two!"

Looking at Zhang Bei's eyes, Zhang Ya frowned.

Although these two things weren't many in the Xueyue Settlement, they did exist after all.

But for such a long time, except for Mission Scrolls, most Transcendent Items had unknown effects.

Having learned from the last time, Zhang Ya was very smart this time, her face carrying a look of difficulty.

"We can only take out five Mission Scrolls at most; as for Transcendent Items, there are only ten."

Zhang Bei shook his head with a smile on his face: "Not enough."

Zhang Ya still intended to continue bargaining,

but Zhang Bei pointed at the teleportation point: "I don't think it will be long before the other two settlements come over."

Hearing Zhang Bei's words, Zhang Ya's expression changed instantly.

Now she was only talking about the price with Zhang Bei; once the other two settlements participated,

I'm afraid she would be facing price competition.

In the current situation, whoever could get the token was the one who called the shots.

Thinking of this, Zhang Ya didn't hesitate at all: "Five Mission Scrolls, plus thirty Transcendent Items."

Hearing this answer, Zhang Bei nodded lightly.

"Fine."

Zhang Ya looked at Zhang Bei, who had always been smiling, and cursed inwardly: Little fox.

But her face still carried a smile: "Then I'll go back and prepare the things!"

Without giving Zhang Bei a chance to speak, a group of people holding Crystal Cores disappeared from the spot.

With the Xueyue Base people gone, Zhang Bei reopened the teleportation point he had quietly closed.

Accompanied by a burst of white light, a man wearing a tiger-skin coat appeared in front of him.

Seeing Zhang Bei, the man hurriedly walked up and shook Zhang Bei's hand: "Oh my god, finally got to see you!"

The infectious words made Zhang Bei's face turn black.

Li Qinqin: 【Ahahaha, his hometown was exposed the moment he opened his mouth!】

Wu Yingcai: 【I'm dying of laughter, this one sentence broke Brother Bei's defense.】

Ye Fan: 【Hahaha, this big brother is also too fun!】

Without giving Zhang Bei a chance to speak, the man's next sentence popped out.

"I am the person in charge of the Tianhai Base: Lu Wencheng.

Big brother, you don't know, we're almost freezing to death over there; it's still warm here!"

Zhang Bei coughed: "Um, can we talk about business first?"

Lu Wencheng then remembered he had a mission to fulfill by coming here.

"Big brother, can you tell me how the settlement was established?"

Zhang Bei felt a headache and hurriedly reached out to hand over the token.

Lu Wencheng took the token and checked it on his wristwatch.

But he was quiet for a few seconds: "Holy crap, this thing is so awesome!

Big brother, how do you sell this thing? Name your price!"

"I want Mission Scrolls and Transcendent Items, just these two."

Lu Wencheng thought for a moment: "Scrolls are very hard to find; I only have seven left, but there are still fifty-plus Transcendent Items."

Zhang Bei looked at the honest man in front of him and deeply suspected that he had never done business before.

"Enough, I'll give you two tokens; you can come find me to buy more if you have Mission Scrolls in the future."

"Big brother is generous, I'll go back and prepare the things."

Before Zhang Bei could speak, a white light flashed, and Lu Wencheng's figure instantly disappeared from the spot.

And at this moment, the live broadcast room was full of joy.

Li Qinqin: 【This is probably the first man to make Brother Bei eat a loss!】

Wu Yingcai: 【Hahaha, this big brother could lose everything doing business!】

Lu Zhong: 【I'm sure this big brother will probably come again in the future!】

Seeing Lu Wencheng leave, Zhang Bei finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He reopened the teleportation, waiting for the final Qingshan Settlement.

But what surprised Zhang Bei was that no one from the Qingshan Settlement appeared.

Instead, many people had already arrived at the teleportation point carrying large and small bags.

In just an hour, over a hundred people had appeared in front of Zhang Bei.

Everyone's gaze was on Zhang Bei.

Most of them came here because they couldn't stand the exploitation of the settlements.

Others came because they followed the name of Langzi.

For them, every word Zhang Bei said next would determine their fate in the future.

Whether to stay in the Nantian Settlement or continue to survive in the wild.

Humans are social animals, after all; if they had a choice, no one would want to survive alone in the wild.

Suddenly, a figure ran out of the crowd and stood in front of Zhang Bei.

It was the man he met by chance on the road earlier.

A glint flashed in the man's eyes: "Boss, I've come to find you!"

Zhang Bei smiled softly: "Just in time, help me with a favor in a bit."

He turned to look at the quiet crowd: "Everyone, welcome to the Nantian Settlement!"

As he spoke, Zhang Bei swiped a few times on his wristwatch.

The light screen controlling the settlement instantly popped up in front of him.

He pulled everyone into the settlement.

"Information regarding the settlement can be checked on your wristwatch."

As Zhang Bei's words fell, over a hundred people took out their wristwatches to check at the same time.

Soon, bursts of exclamations came out.

【Holy crap, we can receive two kilograms of grain and fresh water every day!】

【Holy crap, join the combat squad and you can receive equipment!】

【Oh my god, fully modernized equipment, as long as you have Crystal Cores, you can use it!】

Looking at these people in front of him, Zhang Bei smiled: "Everyone can go find a house you like; if anyone wants to join the combat squad, come find me to sign up."

After speaking, Zhang Bei turned and walked toward the house.

He brought the man back to the small building and poured him a glass of water.

"I never asked what your name was?"

The man scratched his head: "My name is Li Daniu; I used to be a construction foreman."

Zhang Bei nodded lightly: "You understand the information about the settlement; are you interested in helping me manage it?"

Li Daniu's face turned happy, but then it turned into worry: "Can I do it?"

"If I say you can, you can. In the afternoon, you and Su Xiao Xiao help me handle the reception problem, okay?"

Li Daniu nodded: "Okay!"

Watching Su Xiao Xiao take Li Daniu to pick a room, the wristwatch suddenly transmitted a call request.

Zhang Bei chose to accept, and a voice came through: "Big brother, can I go to your settlement?"

The one speaking was the little boy who sold clothes before.

"Of course you can. If you come, I'll be too happy to have you." ===== CHAPTER 26 =====
