Chapter 81 A Huge Sum of Money?

Two kilometers southwest of Songjiabao, several men were peering through binoculars at the gate.

Behind them, there were more than twenty people standing or squatting, all holding longbows, carrying arrow baskets on their backs, and with long knives hanging from their waists.

Behind them, a large herd of wildebeest grazed peacefully.

"I've found a bunch of fat sheep! My goodness, they actually bought so much stuff! Oh my god, what's that? A case of wine?" The speaker couldn't help but lick his lips.

"Alcohol! It really is alcohol! My God!"

"Boss, why don't we just rob them? Kill them and take all their stuff back."

"I don't want to live anymore!"

The bald, scarred man beside him growled, "Look closely, who are they?"

"Zhao Laosan? Wait, they're from Zhao Family Fortress!"

"Zhao Family Fortress!"

The group of people behind him swallowed hard.

Although they were bandits, they still understood the principle of bullying the weak and fearing the strong. Zhao Da was a martial artist at the Body Refining Realm, capable of drawing a 500-jin (250 kg) strong bow. If he killed the people in his stronghold, they wouldn't be able to survive in this area.

Go somewhere else? Those of them in this line of work all have their own territories. Would other bandits be happy to let them go there?

"Let's wait for those people to come out."

Someone nearby said, "Brothers, we saw it clearly. That group of people carried in four game animals. There were fifteen people in total, but only two of them knew how to use a bow and arrow. With so many of us, we could take them down without breaking a sweat."

"Um."

The bald, burly man nodded. "Then let's wait for them to come out. Don't rush to make a move. Let them walk at least a mile or two before we do anything."

"Understood, brother."

"It's not like this is the first time we've done this."

Everyone else laughed.

Riding wildebeest, they come and go like the wind, but if they become too arrogant, they can be wiped out in no time.

"Four antelopes, that must be worth three or four thousand yuan, right?"

"Yes, it can be exchanged for a lot of good things."

"Tsk tsk tsk, hunting is nerve-wracking; one wrong move and you could be killed by a ferocious beast. It's not as easy as killing and robbing for money."

"Almost there."

"Yes, it's fast."

Laughter erupted again from the crowd.

……

"Songjiabao Weapon Shop sells all kinds of weapons at low prices. We also buy all kinds of ferocious beast materials. We buy mid-level ferocious beast materials at high prices. Prices for high-level ferocious beast materials are negotiable."

Looking at the signboard in front of the store, Chen Fan thought to himself that the name of the store was indeed concise and to the point, without any fancy embellishments.

Looking inside, the space was nearly a hundred square meters, extremely spacious, filled with all sorts of cold weapons, and people were moving about, making it quite lively.

To his surprise, he did not see any armed guards.

But upon closer reflection, it becomes clear that someone must be incredibly desperate to cause trouble here.

"Gentlemen, are you selling materials from ferocious beasts?"

A well-dressed, pretty woman stepped forward and asked warmly.

"Yes."

Chen Guodong nodded.

"Okay, please follow me."

After the woman finished speaking, she walked to the side.

The group followed. This wasn't the first time they had gone through this process. After walking a few dozen meters, they turned into a spacious courtyard. The courtyard was bustling with people.

It's all about bargaining.

A group of men approached, the one in the lead being a burly man who said in a gruff voice, "You're all going to sell these antelopes, are you?"

"Yes, sir, what's the price?"

Chen Guodong asked with a smile.

"Antelope, a low-level ferocious beast, its meat is neither too good nor too bad, and costs three yuan per kilogram."

"what?"

Gao Yang opened his mouth wide and asked, "Wasn't it 3.5 yuan per jin a while ago?"

The burly man glanced at him. "You said it yourself, that was a while ago. The market is different now. Are you selling or not?"

The group exchanged glances, somewhat helpless.

In such a large place as Songjiabao, this is the only place that buys materials from ferocious beasts. If they don't sell them here, are they going to go somewhere else to sell them? That's not realistic.

"Sell it, sell it, three yuan it is," Chen Guodong said with a forced smile.

"You should have said so earlier. You guys, come with me."

The man pointed to the group of people carrying the prey.

"That's really arrogant."

After watching them leave, Gu Ze stood there and muttered something.

"yes."

Chen Fan nodded helplessly.

Just then, a commotion arose at the entrance, and several people carried in a wild boar the size of a small truck.

This wild boar was entirely black, with fine, needle-like hair that stood upright, and two tusks as long as an adult's arm that gleamed.

There were two large holes on its forehead, deep enough to expose the bone, clearly fatal wounds. It looked like it had been shot, and the blood at the wounds had already dried.

"You all better watch out! If you break two teeth, we couldn't afford to buy them back even if we sold you all!"

The speaker was a man in his twenties, holding a sniper rifle in one hand. He had a buzz cut, a cigarette dangling from his mouth, and bulging muscles in his arms, giving him a tough look.

"Oh! Master Lu is here!"

"Master Lu is amazing! He actually managed to hunt down such a big porcupine. Impressive!"

"Please come in, Mr. Lu. Don't worry, we'll definitely give you the highest price for this porcupine."

Several men warmly welcomed the man inside.

"Who is that?" someone asked curiously from the side.

"You don't even know him? Have you heard of the Gale Martial Arts School inside the fortress?"

"The Gale Martial Arts School? Of course I know about it. I've heard the master is a Qi Refining martial artist, capable of killing a mid-level ferocious beast with a single punch!"

"That's right, this young man is the second disciple of the Gale Martial Arts School. I heard he reached the Flesh Refining Realm at only twenty-something. We have to detour when we encounter mid-level ferocious beasts, but this guy just rushed over with a sniper rifle and fired a few shots. He's incredibly fierce!"

Instantly, a collective gasp filled the air.

"cut."

Upon hearing this, Gu Ze scoffed, somewhat disdainful.

He can kill a mid-level ferocious beast with a sniper rifle, so what's there to be proud of?

"That's interesting."

Chen Fan revealed an expression of great interest.

The speed of a martial artist combined with the power of a firearm is indeed a good combination.

However, this method is not very practical for them, because firstly, firearms are expensive, and secondly, they are only sold to people inside Songjiabao, and outsiders like them are not qualified to buy firearms, they can only buy cold weapons.

This also highlights the competitiveness of Songjiabao.

Just then, Chen Guodong walked over with his men, and it was clear that everyone's eyes were full of smiles.

"Xiao Fan,"

Chen Guodong walked up to Chen Fan and lowered his voice, saying, "Four prey animals, a total of 1,200 jin. At three yuan per jin, that's 3060 yuan in total. This half, 1530 yuan, is yours."

As he spoke, he pulled a wad of cash from his pocket and handed it over.

The others surrounded the two, blocking the view of others.

It is indeed crowded and chaotic here, but the outside world is even more of a mixed bag.

Chen Fan stared blankly at the colorful banknotes for a moment.

Thank you so much to reader "论道悠然" for the 500 Qidian coins!
