The reason why Qu Jianlei staged such a scene with nutritional supplements was mainly to dispel the suspicion of the clerk.
However, the two of them had not discussed the details, and they could cooperate so naturally, and indeed they had quite a tacit understanding.
The clerk hesitated for a moment, but after all he couldn't resist the temptation of such a large order.
However, he also said, "If there is no proof, it will be lowered by three points."
"Don't even think about it," Qu Jianlei flatly refused, "I have plenty of gold."
"Just one order," Nutraceutical counter-offered, "otherwise we won't be able to make this order."
But the clerk said he was in a dilemma - this was not his store, so the two parties finally settled the deal at a price two points lower.
Then Qu Jianlei took out a gold brick from his bag, tested it and then weighed it... which is equivalent to just over 300,000 federal dollars.
Then he took out another piece, which was enough to buy jewelry.
Unexpectedly, Nutrient reached into his satchel and took out another gold brick, "This one has also been redeemed, look for our equal value card!"
Qu Jianlei looked at her helplessly, "I said you're done? Is it easy for me to get some gold?"
"You still have to pay for dinner," the nutritional agent replied confidently, "What if it's too late to get a replacement watch?"
"Can't you pay the bill?" Qu Jianlei muttered, but had no intention of taking back the gold brick.
The clerk really didn't want to redeem the equivalent value card because it was not in compliance with the rules.
But there is indeed such a thing in the store. If you are in this industry, no one will follow the rules - who would have trouble with money?
After using his watch to consult his superiors, he decided to accept the three gold bricks.
By the time Qu Jianlei and the others left the store, it was already dark.
No matter what, with hundreds of thousands of federal coins on hand, I can at least turn around.
The business on Cod Star is still very prosperous. Even though it is dark, there are still many shops open.
Everyone purchased various items separately and rented two off-road vehicles.
Then everyone chose a forest with not many people, set up the newly bought tents, and put on the newly bought clothes.
When outsiders passed by, they saw a camping group, and they seemed to be locals from Cod.
Then everyone started making barbecue dinner - the skewers were all newly bought, and some styles were not seen in the empire.
While eating and drinking, Qu Jianlei gave Xiangxue a task, "Exchange some federal coins tomorrow, otherwise it will be really inconvenient."
Then Nutrient explained again how he and his boss exchanged it, and finally made a summary.
"...You don't have to follow our example. You can also use other methods. The main thing is not to arouse others' suspicion."
After hearing this, Yuanyuan asked, "But wouldn't this be a bit of a cover-up?"
"Senior, I'm not questioning you, but this method... in the eyes of people who have been in society, it shows that there is something wrong."
The fraternity she belonged to in the past was all about playing side games, so there shouldn't be too many similar operations.
The nutritional supplement replied calmly, "Since you have been exposed to society, you should know what you can and cannot do."
"If we didn't cover it up, it's our own problem; after we cover it up, there are still people who don't understand, then we can be ruthless."
Qinghu nodded when he heard this and said coldly, "We are already very polite. If someone insists on seeking death, it's just a good time to make some extra money!"
Ever since she saw the tragic situation on Hope 4, she has always been worried about the Alliance and the Federation.
After eating and drinking for a while, another city guard car passed by on inspection. Seeing such a group of people, they stepped forward to check their identities.
After Qu Jianlei affected the other party's mood, he even took the initiative to ask, "Is there a black market nearby?"
There are indeed some nearby, but they are open on odd days, and today happens to be an even number.
After the city guards left, Qu Jianlei arranged for Hua Xiezi to go to the black market tomorrow to sell some supplies - mainly the jewelry bought today.
"Isn't this a bit too slow?" Hua Xiezi scratched his head, "Would you like to ask two more people who are rich and unkind?"
She had seen a lot of money before, but for a mere few hundred thousand to set up a stall on the black market, she was repelled from the bottom of her heart.
And we are abroad now. Although we can't rob anyone we see, there is nothing wrong with killing a few guilty people and grabbing some things along the way, right?
"You can handle it as you see fit," Qu Jianlei replied lightly, "But this is in the Federation, so it's best not to attract unnecessary attention."
"I understand this," Hua Scorpion nodded without hesitation, "We still want to capture the supreme leader, so keep a low profile."
At this moment, Mu Guang also spoke up, "Boss, do you want to capture the Supreme Being here, or should we change to another planet?"
Qu Jianlei did not answer directly, but said, "The supply ships are parked here, isn't it to remove all traces?"
"Understood," Mu Guang understood instantly, and then nodded, "Then try to be as small as possible...I also said I wanted to get some treasures."
Otherwise, Qu Jianlei’s team really doesn’t have a fuel-saving lamp, and he is a typical example.
In the past, in the empire, Mu Guang had some scruples and did not dare to do anything random.
But when he came to the Federation, a hostile country, he really didn't have any worries, so he just thought about getting a few big votes.
It doesn't matter whether it's in compliance with the rules or not - this is an enemy country!
But the boss's answer told him that he should restrain himself and not show any traces.
"What a pity," the paranoid smacked his lips with regret, "I also said I would go to the Planet Museum to grab one."
Star Cod has its own museums, namely No. 1, No. 2 and No. 3, and there are even many private museums.
There are many things on display in the museum, including some sacred treasures.
Treasures displayed publicly may not be genuine, but there is no doubt that the exhibitor must have the genuine article.
The only difference is where the real thing is hidden.
A ruler is stirring the skewers. If you don't look carefully, you might think someone is doing it. In fact, it is the ruler's spontaneous behavior.
"If you want to grab it, just grab it. If you find it difficult, you can come to me... I only charge 30% of the handling fee."
"You must learn to exercise restraint," Qu Jianlei said calmly, "It is easy to indulge, but only by knowing how to be reverent can you go further."
After eating and drinking, everyone took a rest. This journey sounds easy, but it is actually quite hard.
In addition to the psychological pressure of being in the empire, just those days of registration had a considerable impact on the high-level combat power of the team.
The most embarrassing thing is that you can't take out the spirit gathering array to rest. As for the ten thousand year stone milk... no one wants to be discovered by the sunset.
So everyone is somewhat lacking in spiritual energy.
In the middle of the night, the big-headed butterfly began to spin, "Boss, we are finally connected to the federal network. There is a lot of information."
When Xiao Hu first came to the Federation, he was able to seize control of the enemy's starship in Star Wars.
However, it took a lot of time to enter the ordinary network silently, because the federal network was more complicated.
After entering the network, it discovered something different from the empire, that is: the information barriers were greatly reduced.
All kinds of current affairs news, hot comments, popular science literacy, strange people and strange things, gossip and secrets... you really have everything.
Not only the information of this star field, but also the information of outer star fields is quite abundant.
Qu Jianlei took a newly purchased portable terminal and browsed the Internet for a while, feeling a bit like Blue Star.
However, many keywords still cannot be retrieved. Obviously, there is also a problem in guiding public opinion here.
Qu Jianlei didn't feel surprised. Things in the world are like this. Public opinion is a position. If it fails, it will be really serious.
In the next few days, everyone was wandering around, firstly collecting various information about local customs and customs, and secondly purchasing various raw materials.
The Federation has a lot of materials that are unheard of in the Empire.
Qu Jianlei, along with Zi Jiuxian, Bentley and Tianyin, have been analyzing the properties of various materials and are very busy.
Thanks to the lax information blockade on the Internet, the characteristics of many materials can be roughly checked online, otherwise I would not be busy at all.
However, another problem arises. Purchasing a large amount of materials requires a lot of federal coins, and a few hundred thousand is simply not enough.
Qu Jianlei has a lot of gold reserves, hundreds of tons. One ton of gold can be exchanged for more than 40 million federal coins.
The problem, however, is that he doesn't dare to throw out too much.
Selling piecemeal pieces of a few kilograms is not very conspicuous, but if you sell them too many times, the market will naturally fluctuate.
This is the case with the precious metals market. Although the economy of Cod Star is quite developed, the pool is only so big that it cannot withstand the hardships.
After all, they didn't find a big buyer.
Through sporadic market transactions, less than one ton was sold, and some people have discovered that there have been changes in the supply of gold.
On this day, Xiao Moshan and Xiao Qin traded five kilograms of gold and were targeted by others.
Fortunately, Xiao Moshan was not ordinary vigilant. After discovering it, he used a large shopping mall to get rid of the tail without leaving any trace.
But this can already be seen as a sign of danger.
The federation's surveillance is also very advanced. As long as the other party has a certain level of strength, it is not very difficult to find them.
"It seems it's time to leave," Qu Jianlei made his decision, "What do you think?"
"It's better to wait for the other party to come to your door," the paranoid suggested seriously, "it's rare for someone so blind to take the initiative to come to your door."
Hua Scorpion was the first to express support, and she is not someone who likes to be criticized.
The key is that she can get money quickly this way, which is better than buying things bit by bit on the black market. "I'll leave after finishing this!"
As a person involved, Xiao Moshan thought it would be better to leave as soon as possible. "It is better not to contact us with the supply ship."
Xiangxue disagreed with him, "Even if we leave here, we are still short of money... What if we go to the next planet?"
Claire nodded thoughtfully, "That's right, you can't continue to sell gold, otherwise it will still be easy for others to associate you with it."
It's really rare that the little girl from the past can actually consider the problem comprehensively.
Qu Jianlei nodded after hearing this. Brainstorming was indeed effective.
He is not someone who cannot listen to advice, "Then just do one vote and then leave."
Then everyone divided into four groups, which seemed to have nothing to do with each other, but were not more than one kilometer apart.
