"Director Su, how long is the repair expected to take?"
Su Li held his breath and carefully filled in the missing rune in front of him. Seeing that the energy circuit was formed, he slowly breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead and replied.
"All the problems have been identified. They only need to be repaired step by step. According to this progress... it can be repaired in one day, um, one day at most."
"good."
The mechanism beast regained its tranquility and silence, and Su Li once again devoted himself to the intense repair work. Compared with other Talisman Master apprentices, he was the main force in the repair.
As time went by, the sky gradually darkened, and Lin Qiong and others who had left before had arrived overnight, bringing a large number of people with them.
"Go and have a few people keep an eye on it. It doesn't matter anything else. Just pay attention to the entry and exit."
"yes."
The accompanying captain nodded and immediately sent two teams of scouts to leave. After a while, they disappeared without a trace, and they didn't know where they were hiding.
"Master Su, we have brought everyone here, what about the start?"
"Well, let's get started."
Su Li said casually after finishing the repairs on hand, and then suddenly turned back and asked.
"Oh, by the way, have everyone come here? Is there a second batch?"
Lin Qiong was a little confused, but still shook her head.
"Everyone has come, there is no second batch."
"Okay, then those who come in should not go out casually, and don't get too close to the outside, so as not to cause any misunderstandings."
After speaking, Su Li didn't wait for their reply and just started his own repair work.
His job is as an mechanics engineer, his time is precious, and he doesn't have that much time to chat with them.
Lin Qiong and others were about to disperse when suddenly a man came over.
"A few of you, grab a few tails. I don't know if they are your people. Just watch and deal with them."
After saying that, the soldiers pushed a few people into the middle and left directly. After a while, they disappeared from sight again, and they didn't know where they went.
Lin Qiong looked at the people in front of him and said coldly.
"Kill him."
After saying that, he left with his men and dispersed to different areas to start collecting.
.........
"Thank you for your help this time."
"Ha, I've already thanked you once, and you didn't let us work in vain, so why don't you say anything more."
Sun Quan waved his hand, and Fang Fan smiled and said nothing. Could it be the same? However, Fang Fan didn't continue talking. People who understand will naturally understand. If Sun Quan doesn't understand, then there are people behind him who understand. Fang Fan just accepts this feeling.
After the business was finished, the two started chatting casually, chatting about places and life before the apocalypse. Fang Fan talked about modern times, and Sun Quan talked about the Three Kingdoms.
We were talking, laughing, and chatting. I don’t know how we ended up talking now.
"Brother Fang..."
"No, there are no outsiders. Just call me Fang Fan. I'll also call you Sun Quan. Brother Fang, Brother Sun is too weird."
Sun Quan was startled, but then nodded.
"Then I'll have to call you Fang Fan." After Sun Quan finished speaking, he pondered for a moment, organized his words, and then continued.
"Fang Fan, what's wrong with your rune lamp? It's so bright at night, even brighter than during the day. It makes me jealous.
Don't you know that when you live in the Gaozhai compound, the lighting depends entirely on moonlight and candlelight, and it is so gloomy day by day that it can suffocate people to death?
Do you think you can sell me some of your rune lamps?"
"Haha, this is easy to talk about. I will give you a hundred and eighty lamps later, which is enough for you to decorate the whole yard."
"Hey, that's not what I meant."
"If it's not this one, which one is it?"
"There's nothing to be embarrassed about. If you have enough production here and the price is right, I'll spend the money to buy it in large quantities.
Do you think this deal can be done?"
"Well, if you want it yourself, I will give you eighteen hundred, but if it is a large quantity..."
Fang Fan pondered for a moment and continued.
"This can be done. With our relationship, my price won't be stuck with you. In this way, I will ask my people from the chamber of commerce to find you tomorrow and let them discuss it and come up with it."
"OK, alright."
Sun Quan nodded, picked a rune lamp from the side and played with it in his hand. He looked left and right. The more he looked at it, the more he liked it. He felt like he couldn't put it down.
"Oh, by the way, I saw Fang Fan that your crossbow is very powerful. Can you give me a selling point? Don't worry, the price is definitely not an issue."
Fang Fan was startled and did not answer immediately, but looked at Sun Quan.
Seeing this, Sun Quan's expression changed and he said somewhat exaggeratedly.
"Of course, I'm not the kind of bastard who takes advantage of favors, and I'm not the kind of person who doesn't know how to measure things.
Don't get me wrong, what I want is not the powerful fifth-level ballista, what I want is the ordinary one.
Of course, if it doesn’t work, just pretend I didn’t say it.”
Looking at Sun Quan who was a little nervous, Fang Fan suddenly laughed.
"Haha, sell, sell, since someone is buying it, why wouldn't I sell it?"
"Is this true?"
"How can I be false in what I say? A gentleman's words are hard to follow."
Fang Fan looked serious at first, but then spoke calmly.
"But the crossbow is not as good as the rune lamp. The crossbow is an ordnance. It is definitely impossible to trade animal souls. You have to be mentally prepared."
"Of course I know this."
Sun Quan was not surprised at all and nodded naturally.
Although beast souls are hard currency among ordinary people, they are entirely the result of the lord's vigorous control.
Beast souls are no longer accepted in large transactions between territories, and even between some huge mercenary groups.
There is no way, some precious materials, equipment, etc. are already commercially available and priceless, but it is no longer easy to measure their value with animal souls. At this time, the most primitive but very practical barter has become the current
Popular trading methods.
Of course, fifth-level and sixth-level beast souls are also classified as treasures, and their value cannot be measured by lower-level beast souls.
"The price is..."
"Metals, metals with grades, are based on third-grade metals. One box is three cubic meters. Only metals of grade two and above are accepted."
"Hey, so expensive?"
When Sun Quan heard the price, he took a breath and said in surprise.
Fang Fan said with a smile when he saw this.
"Don't say that I cheated you. The crossbow I gave you has three rounds, and with specialized crossbow arrows, you can kill third- and fourth-order mutant beasts at will. If you put a hundred and eighty of them on the city wall, you will be able to withstand the general beast tide.
Those who don't reach the edge are comparable to a fourth-level master.
Is it expensive to exchange some level 3 metals for a level 4 crossbow vehicle equivalent to that of a level 4 master?
If I don’t lie to you, if someone else wants to buy it, I’ll have to charge at least five cents for it.”
Fang Fan smiled and made a five sign towards Sun Quan.
"Fang Fan, let me call you Brother Fang. That's not how this account is settled."
"No, don't call me Brother Fang, never."
Fang Fan's expression changed, he waved his hand quickly, then lit the rune lamp in his hand and whispered.
