I can see the commodity price curve

Zhang Yue glanced at Chris: "Take this car to Mongu? Are you serious?"

Chris nodded: "Of course I am serious, and I have never been more serious than now.

The reason is simple, because there is only one means of transportation from here to Mongu.

And I checked, this is the most comfortable way to reach Mongu according to your request.

If we don't take this car, we will have to walk.

The distance from here is not long, about two hundred kilometers. If you go fast, you can get there in about ten days.

Of course, the premise is that we have to prepare enough dry food.

Because there is no place for supplies in the middle.

By this car, it only takes about eight hours.

So you see..."

Zhang Yue said decisively: "I must be taking a car!

I was blind before and thought this car was a bit unphotogenic.

But now I realize that this car is the Lamborghini Rolls-Royce of cars.

I believe that with this magical car, we will be able to reach our destination very successfully. "

Chris nodded: "I think so too. If that's the case, there's nothing to hesitate about. Let's go!"

After saying that, he took the lead and walked forward. However, after taking a few steps, he seemed to suddenly think of something, stopped again, turned to Zhang Yue and said:

"Don't speak easily for a while, especially your English. It's not that you don't speak well, but that your pronunciation is too unique.

If someone recognizes that you are not a local, it will definitely cause a lot of trouble. "

Zhang Yue nodded: "Don't worry, I'll just pretend to be dumb.

No matter what you say, I don’t understand or hear you. "

Chris nodded with relief.

Zhang Yue checked his skin again.

His skin is specially dyed with a special dye that cannot be washed off when applied to his body.

The only way is to wait until the epidermal cells age and new skin grows back to return to normal.

This time lasts for almost three months.

Of course, although the sacrifice is relatively large, this pigment can make Zhang Yue's skin look no different from that of black people.

There were about ten people in Zhang Yue's group. They moved forward in a mighty manner, attracting the attention of people near the car from all the way.

Everyone looked over very curiously, and some people's eyes couldn't help but burst out with burning light.

Because they could tell that this group of people was from outside.

And outsiders mean they can rob.

As long as these people are caught and looted, even if they don't make a fortune, they can live comfortably for a long time.

However, when they fixed their eyes on the weapons in these people's hands, their expressions froze.

Most of these people carried guns on their shoulders. Although the rest could not be seen, it could be seen from their bulging waists that they also had powerful weapons.

Shaking their heads, these people threw away their unrealistic thoughts.

Although tying a knot can make you feel comfortable for a few days, it still requires a life flower.

Although it is said that a strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake, there is another saying that a strong dragon cannot defeat a river.

These people dare to appear here blatantly, so they are naturally not afraid.

While these people were staring at Zhang Yue and his group, Zhang Yue also looked at them.

If the guess is correct, these people should be nearby residents. They are waiting for the bus here. They probably have the same destination as themselves, which is to go to Mongu.

At this time, a man in his forties came over with three young people.

The man said: "Hello, do you want to go to Mongu?"

Chris nodded: "There are a total of nineteen of us here. I wonder if we can sit down?"

When the other party saw Chris nodding, his eyes lit up instantly: "I can sit down, of course I can.

But each of you will have to pay $1. "

Hearing this, Zhang Yue was stunned.

A dollar? Isn't this too cheap?

One U.S. dollar is equivalent to seven yuan in RMB. You must know that it is two hundred kilometers from here to Mongu.

Moreover, two hundred kilometers is only a straight-line distance. If you include detours and complex terrain, it is at least two hundred and fifty kilometers.

In addition, the road conditions here are extremely poor. Even if Zhang Yue has never ridden in such a car, he knows that it will be very difficult to move forward.

This virtually increases a lot of human and material costs.

Therefore, in Zhang Yue's opinion, the other party's charges should be more expensive than those in China.

After all, this car is private, and domestic cars are official, so the ticket itself has some discounts.

In China, taking a bus for a distance of 200 kilometers costs almost 100 yuan.

However, just as he thought this, he heard Chris say: "What? A dollar? Boss, isn't this too shady for you?

Although we are from out of town, we are not ignorant of the market conditions.

This is a road in particular that I have walked dozens of times.

It's impossible for you to fool me. "

The boss felt a little embarrassed for a moment: "That's it!

Maybe I remembered the ticket price wrong just now, you can just pay $0.4. "

However, Chris still shook his head: "This price is barely reasonable, but there are so many of us, why don't you give us a discount?
A total of five dollars, how about it? "

The boss cried instantly: "No, brother, there are nineteen of you, which means that according to the normal fee, I need to charge you 7.6 US dollars.

As a result, you just cut off a large section for me. Plus, the postage is so expensive these days, so I will lose money if I send it to you. "

Chris glanced at him: "How many dollars do you think is appropriate?"

"At least seven dollars, no less, otherwise I would rather not pull you!"

"I'll give you six dollars at most, no more." Chris did his part.

"Six dollars is definitely not okay. How about this, 6.9 dollars?"

"$6.9 is too expensive. I say six dollars is six dollars. It can't be more."

"Why are you like this? I already gave in one more step, but you didn't add any money.

In all my life, I have never met a tough cock like you. "

Chris rolled his eyes: "What does it mean to be a tough guy like me? I'm a very down-to-earth person, okay?
Anyway, it’s a total of six dollars. You can pull it if you want. If not, we’d rather walk over.

Anyway, it’s not that far from here to Mongu. "

"I'm sure I won't. Let's go!"

"Just go away, wouldn't it be possible for me to eat pigs with hair on them without you, King Butcher?"

After speaking, he turned to the others and said, "Let's go!"

Then he took a few steps forward without delay.

Hearing this, the others turned around and followed Chris, including Zhang Yue.

Now that the group of people had walked twenty or thirty meters without any intention of looking back, the truck owner finally couldn't help but said: "Okay, okay, six dollars is just six dollars!"
Let me give you one step. "

Chris nodded with satisfaction: "I wish I had said no earlier."

"Why would I have said no earlier? I have driven a car for so many years and I have never given anyone such a discount."

Chris chuckled: "I didn't come, but when I came, you already got a discount."

After saying this, he had a bitter look on his face: "Boss, we are all poor people and we usually don't have enough to eat.

There's no way he can compare with a rich guy like you, so you just take care of it. "

The truck owner rolled his eyes angrily: "Poor guy? Do you think I will believe it?"

With that he looked at the gun on Chris's shoulder, even if it was unspoken. The gun in front of him is not cheap. If he buys it, he can buy his car.

Chris shook his head: "You are talking about this thing! Yes, this is indeed a good thing, and it is valuable.

But the key is that he is not mine!

This time I took a job and went to Mongu to protect a boss.

These guns were provided by the boss, and they had to be returned to him when they were used up. "

Only then did the truck owner realize. He waved his hand helplessly: "Okay, just wait here. I will call you when the truck departs later."

"Then when will you leave?"

"We have to wait until everyone is here. There are only so many people now, and I can't move the car at all."

After saying that, he left without looking back. It seemed that he was looking for customers.

However, Zhang Yue looked at the people near the truck with a strange expression.

Because he found that twenty or thirty people had gathered here now.

Including the 19 people on my side, there are nearly 50 people in total.

50 people in a medium-sized truck must be a bit crowded, right?

It's just that now his character is mute, so he can only watch and cannot speak.

Chris felt this was perfectly normal.

He found a clean place to sit down and wait quietly.

Time passed little by little, and as time went by, people came one after another.

These people are also nearby residents. They are old and young, women and men.

The only thing these people have in common is that each one looks poorer than the other, and each of them carries large and small bags.

These bags were wrapped in colorful cloth of various colors, and they were bulging with unknown things stuffed inside.

Many children look thin and weak, with the biggest problem being their heads.

With just one glance, Zhang Yue knew that they must be suffering from relatively severe malnutrition.

Two hours later, there were already eighty or ninety people nearby.

Chris finally stood up and said to the boss: "Boss, can we leave now?"

The boss shook his head: "Just wait a little longer!"

"What are you waiting for? There are so many people here. Let's go quickly. I'm in a hurry to find the boss who hired us!"

As soon as these words came out, others also followed suit.

"That's right, let's go, boss!"

"I'm looking for work over there. If you delay for one day, I will make less money for one day."

"Yeah, hurry up and leave!"

"..."

Everyone was talking about it, but the truck owner was still insisting at first.

But as more and more people denounced him, he had no choice but to sigh: "Okay, okay, let's go, everyone, get in the car!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately picked up the package and rushed to the car.

Judging from their posture, they naturally want to grab a better position.

Chris was the fastest, and he was on the truck in just three or two steps.

Then he pointed at the people close to him: "You all stand back, otherwise don't blame me for being rude."

The other passengers were naturally dissatisfied when they saw him being so arrogant.

But when he saw the gun in Chris' hand, he endured it for a long time and took a few steps back as the other party said.

At this time, other people from the Guoyue Security Brigade also climbed into the car.

Zhang Yue got into the car among them for a simple reason, although the black color on his skin could make it look real.

But if others get too close and observe carefully, they can still observe some flaws.

Therefore, Zhang Yue tried to keep a low profile.

Fortunately, everything was safe, everyone was busy with their own things, and no one paid attention to him at all.

However, as everyone got on the bus one after another, a rather embarrassing scene happened.

Because there were so many people, the whole truck couldn't fit inside.

At least 1/3 of the people are stuck below and unable to get up.

These people couldn't help but complain to the truck owners.

However, the truck owner had very rich experience in this. He directed the three young men following him to wrap the truck compartment with ropes, and then directed people to get on the truck.

Well, this truck originally had a bed, but because of the length of time it has been in use, the railings next to the bed have long been gone.

Only a few bare iron pillars remained.

Wrap these iron pillars with rope to form a rope guardrail.

The reason why these guardrails were not tied up in advance was because the boss was not lazy.

But when everyone is standing on the truck, if you tie the rope, then a few more people can stand on the truck.

Because the boss had tied the rope in advance.

Firstly, it is very inconvenient to get on the bus, and secondly, people who get on the bus first will subconsciously stand next to the rope.

No matter how much the boss tries to dissuade them, they will not leave the rope.

After all, having a rope to hold on to is much more stable than just standing in the middle of the truck with two feet.

This also leads to the fact that no one is willing to lean into the middle, so that a vacuum is formed in the middle that is difficult to observe with the naked eye.

But when everyone gets on the bus and the ropes are tied, it will be different.

In this way, the rope can be tied a little looser, which can also add a little bit of space.

I have to say that the other party has even calculated such small details, which is definitely a talent.

However, even with the rope, I still couldn’t sit down.

But the boss still had a way. He asked a few flexible people to step on the truck with their feet outside the truck, and then grab the rope with both hands.

Although it is more difficult to stand like this, because you are outside the railings surrounded by ropes, you can access more air and you will not feel crowded.

So I am very happy with those who are flexible.

But even so, seven or eight people still couldn't get on the bus.

Then the boss asked them to sit on the roof of the front of the car.

The boss used steel bars to weld some handles here.

Sitting on it and holding the handle, it is also very stable.

After finally getting everyone into the car, another hour passed.

At this time, Zhang Yue already felt that it was very difficult to breathe.

There is no way, there are too many people in the car.

Although the people from the Guoyue Security Brigade tried their best to help him create a small space, this small space was only to ensure that Zhang Yue would not be next to other people.

He couldn't even turn around.

This not only reminded Zhang Yue of his childhood.

At that time, the most common means of transportation in rural areas was bicycles, the old-fashioned 28-bar.

At that time, a car could seat five or six people.

Two people sit on the bar in front, two people sit on the seats behind, and one person is the driver.

At that time, Zhang Yue already felt that this was spectacular enough, but compared with now, it was completely insignificant.
