Need middlemen
"Do you want to make a deal?"
Chu Zihang asked.
Seeing him suddenly not moving, the mouse-skinned man's heart suddenly tightened. Hearing these words, he became confused again.
Of course they do transactions. Although they advocate self-sufficiency, they still have to rely on exchanges with the outside world for many things.
It's just that we just met each other by chance, and they are not in any recognized trading area. Why did they suddenly mention this?
"What deal?"
However, the rat-skinned man did not refuse directly. It was better to make a deal than to fight.
And if the transaction is successful, even if you don't find the goods, you won't be left empty-handed this time.
"Water Purification Chip."
Chu Zihang said.
Hearing this word, the other rat-skinned men were still confused, but the eyes of the rat-skinned men and the leader of the rat-skinned men suddenly lit up.
"Do you have a water purification chip in your hand?"
the mouse-skinned man asked excitedly.
"That's right."
He nodded.
"How many do you have?"
The mouse-skinned man asked again.
"How many pieces can you eat?"
Chu Zihang asked rhetorically.
"this"
The mouse-skinned man was thinking about the tribe's wealth, his face looking grim.
"Talk?"
Chu Zihang raised his chin towards the corner.
"talk."
The mouse-skinned man tried his best to show a friendly smile, although his face looked more ferocious.
"Ten, take the people and guard outside."
He said to the leader of the Ratskin Men.
"Shaman, can he be trusted?"
Shi said worriedly.
"I have already taught you everything about managing the tribe."
The rat-skinned man said.
"knew."
Chu Zihang raised his gun in protest, and then withdrew the rat skin people from the front hall.
"My name is Beast, and I am the shaman and leader of the Water Tribe."
The two stood face to face, and the rat-skinned man introduced himself first.
Large ratskin tribes will separate the positions of shaman and clan leader, but small tribes usually have one person holding both positions.
"My name is Chu, and I am a treasure hunter."
Chu Zihang also made up an identity for himself.
Treasure hunters are people who make a living by looking for technological relics or other treasures. Of course, they also do some robbery, theft and the like.
When most unemployed bottom nesters introduce themselves, they will say that they are treasure hunters.
"Hello, Chu, nice to meet you."
The rat-skinned man tries his best to show his kindness.
"Hello, beast."
When Chu Zihang said his name, his expression was a little strange.
"Haha, I'm old now, and I killed a lot of ferocious prey when I was young."
The mouse-skinned man said proudly.
Chu Zihang nodded, expressing his belief in this.
The rat-skin man has a friendly attitude, but his body is always ready to explode.
"So, can we start talking about the deal?"
he said impatiently.
"Okay, you can make an offer."
Chu Zihang is capable of everything.
"Is the water purification chip intact?"
The rat-skinned man confirmed first.
"100% new, no damage, can be used after plugging in electricity."
Chu Zihang said.
The mouse-skinned man was happy at first, but then felt uncomfortable.
A 100% new water purification chip would be nice, but their tribe couldn't exchange it for anything of corresponding value.
The last battle with the mutants consumed a lot of manpower and material resources, and the tribe was almost at a loss to open the pot.
Otherwise, there would be no need for him, the shaman, to lead the team himself.
"I don't like nonsense, so just tell me frankly."
Chu Zihang interrupted his thinking.
"You say."
The mouse-skinned man said humbly.
"You should have your own trading channels, right?"
he asked.
"Of course."
The ratskin man's reputation is pretty good, and he has a kind of super-powerful sense with the bottom nest, and can find many hidden snow areas that others can't find.
Therefore, many merchants will come to them and want to buy good things from them for a small amount of money.
"I can give you the water purification chip to sell on your behalf, and I can give you 20% of the profit."
Chu Zihang made his own conditions.
He originally wanted to sell the hammer to him after he recovered from his illness, but after thinking about it, it seemed more reliable to hand it over to the Ratskin tribe for sale.
"Of course you can."
The mouse-skinned man said without hesitation.
Of course he knew there must be something wrong here, but the rat-skinned man didn't care.
The 20% profit is enough to keep the tribe comfortable for a while, as for the trouble it may cause in the future.
Wouldn't the tribe be in much trouble if we didn't make this deal?
Those mutants will definitely come back again. Without enough weapons and strong bodies, what can they do to resist?
"But I have two conditions."
Chu Zihang said.
"You can mention it."
"First, the ten are left as hostages. Second, I want you to try your best to get these things for me."
He gave a list of names
With these things, Chu Zihang can travel almost unimpeded in the bottom nest.
The first condition was expected by the rat-skinned man, but the second condition made him a little embarrassed.
