Swallowing the Stars: Time Simulation

Chapter 42 Dividing the Money

Villa A6 in the supply base has temporarily become the Phantom Squad's resting place.

"Brother Zhou!" Captain Chu Tian, ​​sitting on the sofa, asked with a smile, "Wang Tianxing just now wanted to buy monster materials, right? So, you agreed to it?"

"Captain!" Zhou Zheng nodded, then told Yang Wu and the others what Wang Tianxing had told him.

"The Black Wind Squad?" Chu Tian thought for a moment and said, "I remember they belong to the HR Alliance, right? Weren't they always operating in City 031? How come they're in City 023 now?"

Zhou Zheng nodded and said, "The Black Wind Squad does indeed belong to the HR Alliance. Their arrival in City 023 suggests their strength has likely increased."

"Alright, Brother Zhou, take a low-level beast and bring over the materials from the monster!" Chu Tian pondered for a moment and said, "They returned empty-handed this time, which was somewhat influenced by us. Just tell them that I, Chu Tian, ​​treated them to drinks!"

As soon as Chu Tian said this, everyone except Yang Wu smiled knowingly.

In the wilderness, having more friends means having more paths, while having more enemies means having more danger.

A low-level beast general is nothing to the Phantom Squad and the Black Wind Squad. However, it demonstrates the Phantom Squad's attitude, and unless the Black Wind Squad is foolish, they will never blame the Phantom Squad for this.

"Yes, Captain!" Zhou Zheng took out the complete materials from a low-level beast general-level tiger mastiff from his backpack and headed to the Black Wind Squad's rest area.

……

When Zhou Zheng returned, everyone was having lunch.

"Captain!" Zhou Zheng said with a smile, "The Black Wind Squad was quite polite. At first, they absolutely refused to accept the monster materials, but I insisted, and that's how they finally kept them!"

Clearly, the Black Wind Squad wasn't stupid, and the matter was dropped.

After the meal.

"Let's not talk about the Black Wind Squad anymore, let's eat first! After we eat, let's process the monster materials we hunted in the wilderness this time!" Chu Tian said with a smile, "This time we were out for more than half a month, and we hunted a total of 8 high-level beast general-class monsters, 28 mid-level beast general-class monsters, and 146 low-level beast general-class monsters. We made a small profit!"

When the Phantom Squad goes to the wilderness, they usually only hunt about 5 or 6 high-level beast general-level monsters. Although they encountered an attack from a lord-level monster this time, they still managed to collect materials from three more high-level beast generals.

In terms of value alone, a high-level beast general can be dozens of times more expensive than a low-level beast general!

"The total value of these monster materials is approximately 50 billion!"

"Everyone contributed a lot to this monster hunt! I think it'll be like this: Zheng Tao, Wang Zhi, Yang Wu, and Xiao Qing, each of you will get 13%, which is 6.5 million each. Zhou Zheng will get 18%, which is 9 million. I'll take a little more, 30%, 15 billion." Chu Tian smiled and looked at everyone: "Does everyone have any objections?"

Zhou Zheng and the others all nodded.

What opinions could I possibly have?

This time, Zhou Zheng and his group only received 2% less than before, while Captain Chu Tian received 5% less. In other words, Captain Chu Tian paid the lion's share for Yang Wu's portion.

"Captain!" Yang Wu called out softly.

"Yang Wu, what's wrong?"

Chu Tian smiled and asked when he heard Yang Wu call his name.

"Captain, I'm the weakest, yet I get the same share as Brother Zheng, Brother Wang, and Sister Qing. Isn't that a bit unfair?" Yang Wu asked.

Although Yang Wu was also trying his best to hunt monsters in the wilderness, during each battle, everyone would subconsciously take care of him, leaving the weakest monsters for him; or having him protect Lu Qing, who was the gunner.

Therefore, in terms of team contribution, Yang Wu was undoubtedly the least, a fact that Yang Wu was well aware of.

"Haha!" Chu Tian laughed happily.

At first, Chu Tian thought that Yang Wu was complaining because he and Zhou Zheng received a larger share than the others, especially him, whose share was more than twice that of Yang Wu.

Unexpectedly, Yang Wu felt that he had received too much.

"Yang Wu!" Zhou Zheng said from the side, "Now that you've joined our Phantom Squad and gained everyone's approval, you're our brother in arms. We've faced life and death together in the wilderness, why worry about so much? Don't believe me? Ask Zheng Tao and the other two if they have any objections!"

"Yang Wu, what's the big deal? Maybe in a year or two, you'll be stronger than me. Then, if we split the same amount of money, won't I get more?" Zheng Tao teased from the side.

Lu Qing smiled slightly and said, "Yang Wu, Brother Tian's division is very reasonable, just accept it!"

Wang Zhi also shook his head and said, "I have no objection!"

Seeing this, Yang Wu had no choice but to accept everyone's kindness.

……

Before long, Yang Wu and the others arrived at the purchasing point of the bearded officer Wang Tianxing with a large amount of monster materials. They sold most of the monster materials to him directly, but still left a small portion of the monster materials behind.

Under Wang Tianxing's reluctant gaze, the Phantom Squad boarded the train back to the base city with the remaining monster materials.

On the train.

Yang Wu couldn't help but ask, "Brother Zhou, why didn't we just give them all the monster materials?"

The price Wang Tianxing just offered was definitely above the market price. Even if the remaining materials were brought back to the base city, they would only fetch the same price. Moreover, the Phantom Squad currently only has low-level beast general-grade materials left; they don't have a single high-level or mid-level beast general.

"Guess!" Zhou Zheng rarely joked.

The rest of the Phantom Squad smiled without saying a word.

"Captain!" Yang Wu looked directly at Captain Chu Tian.

"Yang Wu!" Chu Tian said with a smile, "Didn't you only buy the first level of 'World Destruction' before? Now that you've successfully cultivated it, don't you plan to buy the rest of the manual?"

"This..." Yang Wu was deeply moved.

He hadn't even thought about buying the manual himself, but the captain and the others had already taken care of it for him. Of course, this was also because he already had the first three levels of the manual.

Chu Tian continued, "To buy the manual at half price, you need to reach a certain contribution level. Furthermore, you can't have someone else buy the manual for you. I left these monster materials so you can sell them to the martial arts school and earn contribution points!"

"But..." Yang Wu hesitated, "There are just too many monster materials!"

Yang Wu's share was worth about 6.5 million Chinese yuan, but the monster materials that the Phantom Squad has now are worth far more than 10 billion yuan.

"What use are your few monster materials? They're not even enough for a two-star contribution! Besides, the money from selling them to the Limitless Martial Arts Academy isn't even enough to buy you a martial arts manual!" Chu Tian laughed.

Yang Wu was stunned.

What can 5-6 million Chinese Yuan be used for?

A high-level warrior who has risked his life in the wilderness for more than ten years can probably only earn this much money.

However, it is only natural that the one who said this was Chu Tian, ​​a high-level warrior-class mentalist who was capable of going toe-to-toe with a low-level lord-class monster.

"Yang Wu!" Chu Tian said with a smile, "I've set aside monster materials worth 10 billion Chinese yuan from my personal spoils to lend to you. You'll have to pay me back next time you return from the wilderness!"

Monster materials worth one billion Chinese Yuan!

This fortune is enough to bankrupt a high-level warrior, but for Chu Tian, ​​it's something he can easily afford.

When the major powers were recruiting Yang Wu, Zhuge Tao offered 150 million Chinese yuan, and no one competed with him for it.

But now, Chu Tian has directly lent Yang Wu 10 billion Chinese yuan. Although it needs to be repaid, this trust is extremely rare. After all, Yang Wu has only been a member of the Phantom Squad for less than a month.

"Captain, this..." Yang Wu wanted to refuse.

"What's with all this fussing?" Chu Tian waved his hand and said, "Do you think Yang Wu would renege on his debt?"

Wang Zhi sat to the side watching this scene, and it seemed strangely familiar.

Because when he first joined the Phantom Squad, he also encountered the same situation.

Having a captain like this is really great!

"No wonder all the materials are from low-level Beast General-level monsters!"

Yang Wu looked at the large amount of monster materials in his backpack and felt a surge of emotion.
