Shi Chen stood in front of the counter for half a minute, but he didn't see Lao Sa showing any intention of accepting customers.

Boom, boom, boom!

Feeling impatient to wait, Shi Chen tapped on the wooden counter three times.

"Don't you know it's rude to disturb someone's dream? This little guest?"

Suddenly being disturbed in Qili's place, Lao Sa clicked his tongue, took off his reading glasses, wiped them, and put them back again. Without looking at Shi Chen, he continued to stare at the book in his hand and criticize.

Shi Chen frowned slightly. He didn't expect that this old man would be such a weirdo. He didn't ask for code words when they met, but just discussed etiquette issues with him. Can we do business now?

But he didn't want to take high risks and change stores easily, so he had to be patient and change the subject first: "Isn't it just a scam story about a couple who killed their husbands and poisoned their husbands to death?

Are you going to cut off your own financial resources for this book?"

When Lao Sa heard this, it was as if he had been injected with chicken blood. His old face was almost pressed against Shi Chen's nose. He looked at Shi Chen up and down, and seemed to have some understanding. He whispered: "I can't tell, Xiao Xiao

At your age, you are actually well versed in this, let’s talk about it?”

"I don't have that free time, I'm here to do business." Shi Chen pretended to leave.

He didn't dare to talk nonsense with this old silver stick. The reason why he knew the plot outline of "Silver Ping Mei" was because of the influence of his bad friend Xu Sanpao.

If he really wants to talk about the deep meaning of this with others, he will inevitably be exposed by others once in a while, and then they will be nakedly despised.

Lao Sa still looked down on Shi Chen, a hypocrite, and still didn't bother to ask the code word, so he started to ask in a serious manner: "Tsk, it's really unsentimental, okay, what do you need to buy? Or what do you want to consign?

?This guest."

Shi Chen knew that the other party had already guessed that even if he was not a veteran, he was at least not a newbie, so he naturally did not treat him with any courtesy and directly handed Liya the purchase list that had been tampered with and concealed after he handed it over to him.

the other party.

"Well..." Lao Sa picked up the list handed over by Shi Chen and glanced at it, showing surprise. He raised his head and looked at him deeply. After pondering for a moment, he said: "Although our store has all these things in stock, but...

They’re not cheap.”

"Stop beating around the bush and give me a price?" Shi Chen's heart sank.

"Wait a moment." Lao Sa entered the shopping list into the optical computer next to the cashier and quoted a price that broke Shi Chen's heart.

"Well, a total of seventy-three thousand six hundred and eighty-three federal coins."

Shi Chen's heart trembled when he heard this. Although he had long felt that the things Liya wanted him to buy were definitely not cheap, he still felt a little hurt when he heard them from others.

But since he had already agreed to it, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and swallow it. He still asked without changing his expression: "Is there no discount?"

"Well... for the sake of both you and me being of the same mind, let me wipe off the change for you. It's 70,000, it can't be any cheaper."

"First see how much this thing is worth." Shi Chen didn't have the cash to pay, so he took out something wrapped in a wax paper shell from his backpack and pushed it in front of Lao Sa.

Lao Sa did not accept it immediately, but narrowed his eyes and asked: "Oh, what era is the object from? Are there any oxygen protection measures?"

Shi Chen's eyes flashed: "It's from the early days of galactic colonization. It's just a little damaged. You can do your own appraisal and give me a price."

"Well, wait a moment." Lao Sa's eyes also lit up with a glint, and he went backstage holding his things.

Lao Sa only used code words this time.

That bottle of weakened genetic components was hidden in the core processor that he replaced from Xiaochu's body.

Artificial intelligence and genetic components are the products of the galactic colonization period. It was by relying on these two technologies that the Federation laid the strongest foundation for the subsequent expansion of galactic colonization.

Lao Sa didn't let him wait long before he reappeared in front of Shi Chen, with an organized small package in his hand, but with a trace of unfinished doubt on his face.

He seemed to think carefully before asking: "Can the source of that thing be sold? The price will be very generous."

Shi Chen was stunned for a moment, and then he was relieved. This guy must have also seen the difference in that genetic component.

But he didn't waste time on this, saying: "I only got it by accident."

"It's a pity." Lao Sa stared at Shi Chen for a long time and then said: "Well, you also know that the effect of that thing has been weakened by 30%. Logically speaking, I can only give you a price of about 60,000 or even lower, but considering

Seeing that it's a little different from other weakened versions, I'll give you 70,000.'

Logically speaking, this kind of defective product with weakened effects may not be wanted by many people, but it can still be sold at a good price in the empire.

"Well, that's fair." Shi Chen was a little surprised and got an extra thousand yuan. After thinking about it, he asked for something more; "I don't want that one thousand yuan, but give me a crowbar of better quality."

"You are cautious enough." Lao Sa smiled, took out a shimmering sharp tool from under the counter, wrapped it in paper, and pushed it in front of Shi Chen.

Shi Chen opened a corner and glanced at it, then nodded and accepted the package, put it carefully into his backpack, put the crowbar on his waist, hid it in his windbreaker, and said goodbye.

"Thank you for your patronage, and welcome to visit next time." Lao Sa said a verse seriously, and then opened the book "Yin Ping Mei" with great interest.

But he looked through the top of the book page and looked at Shi Chen's leaving figure indifferently.

He had already noticed that some figures were already following him. He shook his head and tsked, "I hope this won't be the last time you do business with me, little sheep."

When Gu Qian walked out of Taile Mall again, the weather was gloomy and drizzle started to fall.

When raindrops pass through the atmosphere, they inevitably dissolve some methane, giving the rain curtain a bit of a rotten egg smell.

Therefore, a rainy night on Titan will never be poetic, but it may bring blood and violence.

Hearing the faint sound of footsteps behind him, Gu Qian gave up on waiting for a taxi on the street, held up a black umbrella, broke into the rain curtain, and disappeared into the shadows of the opposite block.

The edge of the umbrella was pushed to the lowest level, and only his thin lips were exposed. Coupled with his slightly pale and feminine cheeks, he looked quite as calm as the protagonist in the movie.

But Gu Qian is not one of those protagonists. When faced with such a danger of losing both people and money, he can't calm down no matter what.

No matter what kind of dungeon he has, he is still just a young man who has not yet reached adulthood.

When Shi Chen stepped into the corner, he started to quicken his pace. Using the half-baked anti-tracking skills he learned from Xu Qiusheng, he chose several corners with reverse thinking, passing through private houses, nightclubs, and casinos.

I don’t know how long it took, but it seemed to get quiet behind me.

However, just as the mood became cheerful, it was interrupted by a group of people walking out from across the street.

Shi Chen could tell at a glance that those people had bad intentions, and immediately subconsciously planned to retreat, but found that footsteps could be heard in the shadows behind him, and his heart suddenly sank.

Anyone who can follow up to this point and drive other gangs out of the game is definitely not a weak hand, and naturally he will not leave a way out for him.

At first, a big man with a scar on his right eye seemed to notice Shi Chen's little move, and said with a smile: "You can choose to run away, but when you are caught by us later, you will regret doing this stupidest thing."

s Choice."

Shi Chen heard from these words that the other party would definitely not let him go. He breathed slowly and asked: "I am just a poor boy, and the amount of the transaction is not much. Why do you want to mobilize so many people?"

The big man waved his hand nonchalantly and stared at him with a gaze on his prey, "Young Master Qian is an old customer of our Xinglong Hall. He suffered a loss in your hands last time. Although he didn't explain this matter,

But those of us who take money to relieve others’ disasters have to stay awake.”

After saying this, he took out an old terminal and dialed a number. It must be his regular customer Qian Heming.

This Han man from Xinglong Hall gave him the nickname Blood Slaughter. He couldn't forget that it was because of this guy that Qian Heming slapped him angrily in front of all his subordinates, and that he and his subordinates left in embarrassment.

For people like them who lick blood from their swords, such deep humiliation cannot be washed away without blood.

After a while, Xuetu put down the phone in his hand and said: "You're lucky, Boss Qian said he would kill you slowly by himself, so you don't have to die today, you just need to break a leg and get rid of the one who kicked you on the tram that day.

The interest will be paid first."

"Go on, break his third leg for me!"
