Chapter 217 Doomsday Monopoly
Chapter 217 Doomsday Monopoly (revised)
"stop!"
On the platform, everyone was talking at once, arguing about the unprecedented price-performance ratio, and even starting to bid against each other.
Just as the argument was getting increasingly heated, Lin Xian spoke up to stop it.
At this time everyone fell silent.
Lin Xian stood in the middle, looked around, and said loudly: "There are more stocks than these, we have more in the car, there is no need to quarrel, we are all just trying to survive."
Lin Xian was not here for the auction, and these people were just ordinary survivors, so he had no intention of making money from them.
All these conditions were due to his mechanical heart. He did not want to do a one-time business. Thinking of this, he began to feel that KIKI's idea was indeed very advanced. If Infinity became famous, maybe it could be developed into an integrated center for weapons and resources. At that time, it would become very easy for him to get any resources he needed, and the survival of the team would be greatly guaranteed.
"Is it true?" Upon hearing this, Cao Hong looked at the several weapon boxes in front of Lin Xian with a suspicious look on his face. At the same time, his eyes swept towards the car behind him, and his expression suddenly became complicated again.
The Infinity's aura was obviously extremely strong. It was covered in standard heavy armor, and its dozen or so carriages were hundreds of meters long, making it several times larger than his Nightshade. He subconsciously wanted to shout, but quickly held it back.
"What, you don't believe it?"
Lin Xian glanced at him, then looked at the middle-aged man: "You can take both the vehicle-mounted cannon and the light machine gun. I have more than one set, but I need to exchange them for canned food or biscuits."
"That's no problem!"
Cao Hong immediately said in a generous tone, and quickly called a female subordinate beside him: "Quick, bring something to exchange for a gun!"
Several female members of the Night Charm suddenly perked up at this moment, and a group of them hurriedly opened one of the storage compartments of the green train. When it was opened, various collected survival supplies were neatly stacked inside. Lin Xian noticed that there were dozens of canned foods among them, which seemed to be military supplies judging by the outer packaging.
The reason why he noticed this detail was because there was also canned food in this outer packaging in the van of the middle-aged man just now.
"How do you get military rations?" Lin Xian glanced at them and asked directly.
"You mean this... We bought it from the Fu Lu Shou convoy." The middle-aged man in the hat was named Liao Ming. He said bluntly, "Most of the survivors here exchanged supplies with him, but the price is a little higher than yours."
"How high?" KIKI asked with shining eyes.
"It's OK. They have a lot of supplies, almost everything. Most of them are standard official survival supplies."
Cao Hong, the fat man from the Night Phantom, said in a stern voice: "It's just that the price of weapons and bullets has always been relatively high, so many people around here heard your radio and rushed over to see if it's really so worthwhile."
The middle-aged man Liao Ming picked up an automatic rifle, pulled the bolt, checked it, nodded and said, "The quality of this gun is indeed good. At first I thought you were fishing, or you had some broken guns."
"Every gun can be inspected on site." Lin Xian said, "The quality is guaranteed, but there is not much stock. Food, canned food, biscuits and medicines are preferred. If that doesn't work, you can exchange them for blood essence."
"That's no problem."
Lin Xian narrowed his eyes and said to Chen Sixuan: "Teacher Chen, let's do as we just said. Let's swap those that need to be swapped first."
"Yes." Chen Sixuan nodded and said to everyone, "Those who want to buy guns come to me and I will register them one by one."
At this time, people from countless convoys rushed up and began to scramble to exchange supplies.
"Hey, hey, hey, I'll go first. We're locals!" Fatty Cao Hong looked impolite. He gritted his teeth and immediately asked his men to squeeze forward, fearing that someone would grab the first place. "Hurry up, darlings, buy all the good stuff first!"
"We want to replace three sets of guns, and we don't know if this detector can be repaired." Other survivors also swarmed up.
"We need two sets of guns, a shotgun, a light machine gun, and bullets..."
"What are the prices of your Level 1 and Level 2 water purifiers?"
In addition to food, there are also various medicines, blood essence, and these idle weapons. Lin Xian is ready to clear them out at once. There are even a few people in the large vehicle group who have taken a fancy to the light and heavy machine guns and the Roarer K23 electric rotary machine gun in the hands of the building. He is also ready to get on the vehicle to "take" the stock. This kind of heavy weapon can be exchanged for a lot of supplies. The only trouble is that the demand for bullets is too large.
People rushed over and Chen Sixuan became busy all of a sudden. KIKI and Shuqin also hurried over to help. Dalou, Lu Chang and Miao Lu were all helping to carry weapons and ammunition.
hum~
At this moment, a series of rapid roaring car engine sounds suddenly broke the atmosphere of the transaction. Out of caution, everyone immediately stopped what they were doing and looked back vigilantly.
Outside the platform, more than a dozen off-road vehicles with camouflage paint and a transport truck broke through the wire gates set up by the survivors to block the zombies and started directly on the platform.
When everyone saw this situation, they all retreated back to their vehicles.
Soon, dozens of people armed with guns got down from the dozen or so vehicles, and several vehicles had mounted machine guns on their roofs.
Bang.
At this time, two people got down from a domineering armored vehicle in the front.
The leader was a thin man wearing a plaid shirt, a dark red suit, and frog-shaped sunglasses on his face. He looked a bit ruffian.
As soon as the man got out of the car, he stretched his neck and raised his sunglasses, and walked towards Lin Xian with an arrogant expression. The people behind him also came forward with guns, looking very murderous.
"Hey Hey hey!"
"You're the team that was making a scene on the radio about trading a gun for a box of cookies, right?"
The thin man walked over from the group of survivors who wanted to trade, looked at Lin Xian with a scrutinizing gaze, raised his chin, and spoke with a somewhat impatient tone.
"Yes." Seeing that the other party had some ill intentions, Lin Xian's face suddenly turned cold.
"So you are the boss of the team?" "I am."
"What are you doing?" KIKI narrowed her eyes and crossed her arms to walk to Lin Xian's side: "You want to buy something? Line up at the back!"
Lin Xian looked over there and saw that this convoy was extremely powerful. Dozens of people were holding high-powered guns, and there were machine guns on the vehicles. At the same time, behind the skinny man who looked like a gangster, there was a... woman.
She had short red hair, distinct facial features, and was nearly 1.8 meters tall. The wheat-colored skin under her tight vest and the well-defined muscle lines gave her a healthy and powerful impact. If it weren't for the bandage on her chest that suppressed the waves, most people wouldn't even be able to tell that she was a woman.
The most important thing is that this woman’s right arm is a silver-black weapon-grade prosthesis, which looks very powerful.
The most eye-catching person among all the people is this woman who looks like a mechanical Contra.
"Buying something?" the man said arrogantly, "Good boy, do you know who I am?"
"do not know."
"They are the Fu Lu Shou convoy." At this time, Liao Ming, the middle-aged man who had just traded weapons with Lin Xian, helped to speak up: "We bought a lot of things from them."
When Cao Hong of the Night Meteor Team saw this scene, he immediately lost his energy and winked at several of his men, who began to retreat back from the crowd, fearing that they would get into trouble.
Many other team members also had complicated expressions. Most of them had traded things with the Fu Lu Shou team before. Seeing this situation, many people guessed that the Infinity selling weapons at such a cheap price must have made the Fu Lu Shou team unhappy.
Lin Xian and Chen Sixuan looked at each other and thought, wow, they met someone in the same field.
"Hey, where did you come from? Have you ever heard of our Fu Lu Shou team? Do you know the rules? Do you know that you are destroying the Doomsday market by casually offering such a price? And you have a few broken guns, but you dare to directly shout prices on the radio, destroying the honest, friendly and harmonious market environment. Can you bear this responsibility?"
Lin Xian glanced at the group of people behind the man and frowned, "Do the survivors need to ask for your consent to make a deal?"
"Eh!"
The man in sunglasses raised his hand and said, "It's normal for survivors to trade with each other for what they need. Even if you exchange a gun for a cookie, no one will mind. But you directly advertised on the radio that you have this and that, and marked such a low price, which means you have a large amount of goods to sell. This is not an ordinary transaction. It breaks the rules. Do you understand?"
Chen Sixuan stepped forward and said coldly, "That's too unreasonable, do we have to sell it at a high price?"
The man in sunglasses got angry when he heard that. "Are you really stupid or just pretending to be stupid? Today, you can exchange a Spark 26-type fully automatic tactical rifle and 120 rounds of ammunition for a box of biscuits. How can I sell my gun? Will my brothers have enough to eat? Other survivor teams can obviously exchange for a box of canned food, but after what you did, maybe they can only exchange for half a box. Tell me, is this your family's business?"
Lin Xian put his hand on Chen Sixuan's shoulder, looked forward and said, "What he meant is that we are new here and don't have much goods. It's okay to trade privately, but we can't mark the price and shout out the sale on the radio, otherwise it will destroy the market price."
The man in sunglasses looked at Lin Xian, his nose pointed up: "That's right!"
"So what do you want? Do you want to threaten us?" KIKI was unhappy when he heard that and walked forward immediately.
Dozens of Infinity team members behind him also stopped what they were doing, surrounded him with cold faces, and stood behind Lin Xian, holding weapons in their hands, ready to respond to Lin Xian's arrangements at any time.
The survivors who came to exchange things retreated one after another when they saw this scene. These people had complicated expressions. To them, it didn't matter who they bought from, but the favorable price from Lin Xian really made them quite tempted. From the perspective of interests, they would definitely support Infinity. However, these people obviously knew and understood the strength of the Fu Lu Shou team. Many of them could only be angry but not say anything and retreated far away.
At the same time, dozens of people behind the man in sunglasses raised their guns in unison, and the vehicle-mounted machine gun also turned around, with the sound of loading guns.
The red-haired woman behind him saw the change in the situation and slowly clenched her fist without saying a word. The independent servo system of the prosthetic arm of her right arm started up, and a slight hissing sound was emitted from the transmission of the wrist and knuckles.
The surge of electrical energy caused blue light to flash on the fist bone.
"NO! NO! NO! I'm a businessman, not a bandit!"
Seeing the tense atmosphere, the man in sunglasses sneered and clapped his hands. Wow! The younger brother behind him opened the door of the truck, and immediately the entire truck compartment was filled with supplies, neatly stacked. When the other survivors in the convoy saw it, their eyes widened and they gasped.
Generous, absolutely heroic!
The man in sunglasses obviously liked this kind of attention, and said to Lin Xian arrogantly: "Since you guys have called out this price today, here, how many guns do you have? I will take them all according to your price, and then, get out of here quickly!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of the people on the Infinity side suddenly changed. Not only were these words contemptuous, but the most important thing was that they were actually trying to monopolize the goods in front of so many survivor convoys. It was really too arrogant. The faces of the people in the survivor convoys also turned black.
Lin Xian almost laughed when he heard this. He didn't expect that they were a group of principled profiteers in the end times. He nodded and said, "Oh, I see. You are here for wholesale, okay."
"I haven't asked yet, what is this boss' name?"
"The name of the team is my name. My name is Fu Lu Shou!" the man in sunglasses replied calmly.
"Is your last name Fu?" Sasha came out from behind Lin Xian and asked in surprise.
"Why do you care about my happiness?"
"No, I mean your last name is Fu. This last name is very rare."
"My last name is Fu, which means "Fu" (meaning "Fu"), which means "road" (meaning "road"), and "Shou" (meaning "shou"), which means "longevity." The man in sunglasses felt a little insulted and suddenly became anxious.
"Mountains, rivers, and seas of happiness?"
"Is there a problem."
The red-haired woman behind him couldn't stand it anymore and said in a low voice: "His surname is Hu, Kou Yue Hu, Hu Lushou."
"Hulu Beast, what a strange name." Sasha said with a frown. KIKI at the side immediately covered her mouth when she heard it and almost laughed out loud.
