Apocalypse Gachapon

Chapter 208: Big deal

Yuan Shang had set up this motorcade a long while ago.

Each day in the apocalypse was as long as a year if one considered that; it had been a long time.

It wasn’t that he hadn’t done unlawful things or things that went against morals, but in many situations, he chose to follow the rules.

As life was worthless in the apocalypse, you could quickly cover your hands in blood and obtain many benefits. But similarly, people might step on you to ascend.

Shang Yuan knew that point, so he always gave people a way out.

The benefits could be seen everywhere. As he had a good reputation, the factions around Ying City liked to trade with him. This allowed him to obtain many crystals. The fact that the team had so many evolved was a benefit of all of that.

But he was still wary of foreign teams, so he left many trump cards. For example, the guns in the bus. For instance, his grenades. For example, the explosives.

When they faced dangers, he used this to turn the tides.

But Yuan Shang knew that he faced a tough person today. This team was weird. The guys and girls didn’t look like a team from the apocalypse, their dress was too clean, and they were too healthy. Their eyes were too calm.

As a merchant, Yuan Shang also knew the value of white equipment!

Each of them was more expensive than one-star potions.

They had more than ten!

Moreover, when did his explosive ignition get taken?

Yuan Shang shuddered, and he smiled even more.

“It is my fault, my fault, brother. Please don’t mind.” Yuan Shang tossed the explosives to his men and then walked toward Ye Zhongming’s side. He tried his best not to cause any more misunderstandings.

“If you only have food and drinks, then we don’t need to waste our time.”

Ye Zhongming said casually. He still held the remote in his hands, which caused the person carrying the explosives to sweat.

Yuan Shang was stunned. His smile disappeared, and his aura started to strengthen.

Ye Zhongming looked at him and was impressed. This trading motorcade had some style; if he continued as before, they probably didn’t have anything good.

“Let’s be frank; I need three things; if you have, the price can be discussed.”

Ye Zhongming raised three fingers, “One, bullets. Two, grain. Three, intel.”

The Black Cloak Motorcade looked at one another. This was the first time they saw such a trading scene.

Yuan Shang frowned, “Bullets aren’t easy to get, but I have some. Grain is the main thing we sell, so that is not a problem. As for intel… What does this brother want to know?”

Ye Zhongming said, “You don’t understand what I mean. Intel, if you think it is useful, you can use it to trade. I will reward you based on its value. Finally, when I talk about grain… I don’t mean food. The difference is huge.”

Yuan Shang didn’t speak. He looked at Ye Zhongming in shock.

This person wanted grain!

In a world where people could kill for a piece of bread, he wanted large amounts of grain, this… What did he want to do?

He looked at the assault rifles that Little Tiger, Xia Lei, etc., had and returned to the bus. He carried a bag and placed it on the ground a moment later. He revealed several bullet cases.

“90 bullets, 50 crystals. It fits your gun model.”

Ye Zhongming nodded, okay.

Yuan Shang’s eyes lit up. For someone not to care about 50 crystals, either he didn’t plan to pay, or he was wealthy.

The first was not an option as he felt this group was ambitious and had its principles. So there was only one possibility.

“Do you want pistols?”

“How many?”

Hearing Ye Zhongming say that, Yuan Shang was more sure that this group was rich. He said, “Not many, around ten. They came from the wheel, and their quality is guaranteed. But there aren’t many bullets, around 300.”

“Say a price.” Ye Zhongming took a look and smiled coldly.

“200 crystals!”

Yuan Shang bit his teeth and said what he felt was a high price.

Although one bullet could kill one zombie and get one crystal, in theory, normally, if three shots could kill one zombie, that was already a good result, so 300 bullets could, at most, get 100 crystals. 200 was a little expensive.

But Ye Zhongming just nodded his head.

This excited the Black Cloak Motorcade as they knew they had bumped into a big buyer.

“Er, we have rice, white noodles, salt, oil, vinegar, soy sauce. Do you want them?”

Ye Zhongming shook his head.

Yuan Shang stood up and slapped his hands, “That is it.”

Ye Zhongming reached into his bag and took out a sack of crystals.

He opened it and counted. He was slightly stunned, “This seems a little too many.”

“500 level one crystal; tell me where the firearms storage is.”

Yuan Shang and his men shuffled, and many of them raised their guns.

“Wang!”

Yellow Ball barked, and it looked like it was about to pounce.

“You, how did you find out?”

Yuan Shang’s voice was low. When the guy said those words, he was shocked.

Ye Zhongming didn’t reply, “It is quite good that you got such things with your ability. I want to get more. Why not trade for some crystals? If you are lucky, you can get one more evolved. That is more valuable than the storage position you can’t get.”

Yuan Shang lowered his head and debated.

He understood how terrifying this fellow was. He didn’t know what gave it away, so this person could guess that he had found a storage.

“A thousand, and I will give you another news of a small-sized grain storage.”

Yuan Shang raised his head firmly. He made his choice.

The others wanted to say something, but they stopped. Yuan Shang’s status in their group was strong enough.

“Oh? How much grain do you think there is inside?”

“At least enough for a thousand people for two months.”

“Okay, but I need detailed information about factions around.”

Ye Zhongming took out another bag and passed it to him.

After noticing it was exact, he counted and said something to him softly. Ye Zhongming nodded and shoved the remote back into his pocket. He waved at his team to tell them to head out.

“Oi, are you not afraid that I lie to you?”

Seeing them about to leave, Yuan Shang instinctively asked.

Ye Zhongming smiled, “You have to pay the price if you lie to me, will you?”

Yuan Shang was astonished and said, “I didn’t lie.”

“Right.” Ye Zhongming shrugged. He wanted to leave and suddenly said, “If you want to do business, bring more food to Cloud Peak two days later.”

He then led them away.

Seeing them go, one of the members walked over. He said coldly, “Brother Shang, this group….”

“We can’t offend them!”

He stared at his men and knew what he was thinking. He had to squash that thought. If not, they would die sooner or later.

“Let me tell you all.” He jumped on the steps of the bus and said to his men, “You know what I did in the past. I was a headhunter for top companies. I am only good at looking at people. Let me say solemnly, no matter what, be polite to this team in the future. If not, don’t blame me for not holding back.”

“It is fine if you die but don’t drag down everyone. Do you understand!”

“Time to go; head to East Mountain Village to find Uncle Hai to buy food and spin the wheel!”

………………………………………………………………………………………………

At night, Ye Zhongming’s team was near Cloud Peak.

“From a strategic standpoint, this was a great place. It was at the peak of a mountain, and its back was on a cliff. Only one path led to it. It was easy to defend and hard to attack.”

Mo Ye passed the binoculars to Ye Zhongming and pointed at this large holiday village, “That is just for humans; it is no different for zombies and mutated lifeforms. If the villa hadn’t set up walls to prevent guests from entering the forests on the side, the place would have already been broken into.”

“There areare a few thousand zombies here and many mutated lifeforms.”

“Based on the information, there are four factions inside. They use various methods to enter. They would use sounds to draw the zombies away before driving out. Each time some people would die. But because of that, factions on the outside didn’t touch this place as no one had confidence in clearing the mutated monsters.”

“That is the basic situation.” Mo Ye asked Ye Zhongming why he wanted to choose this place.

Ye Zhongming naturally had his reason, but that was from his last life. Although it wouldn’t change in this life, he didn’t dare say confidently that it was the same.

Ye Zhongming decided to scout tonight.
