Chapter 136 Sell seat tickets

"Nick, how many have you sold?" At the Pople Star Martial Arts Training Center, two locals were staying together in the lobby of the martial arts training center. When they saw people who looked like spectators passing by, they stepped forward and sold each other the tickets they bought. Seat tickets.

They grabbed some seats in the venue in the middle of the night and sold them by exchanging information bound to the optical brain. This is also the default sales method of some martial arts training venues with poor performance.

Ten o'clock in the morning is not the time when the martial arts training ground has the largest flow of people and the most competitions.

Due to the difference in temperature on the planet Pople, most competitions will only start in the afternoon or even at night. Fighters and spectators will also enter the venue at this time, and will gradually decrease and then stop until the early morning. In the morning and noon, the martial arts training ground was empty.

Today was unusual. Many spectators arrived at the martial arts training ground early in the morning. In addition to locals, there were also many tourists who had recently arrived in Poplar. Although most people were interested in this competition, But he still gave priority to buying seat tickets from the martial arts training ground. He worked hard to sell them all morning, but until ten o'clock in the morning, not even half of the tickets in his hand were sold.

Among the two people, the man named Nick wore a cowboy hat. He put his hands on his hips and shook his feet a little anxiously. He rolled his eyes at his companion and replied stiffly, "Five!"

"I only have three." The man was a little discouraged.

"I've told you that the ticket scalping business has become increasingly difficult in recent years. You still don't believe it." Nick faced his buddy with an expression of "I told you so" "Early in the morning Just wake me up to do this laborious and unprofitable business, and don’t wake me up next time.”

The guy he disliked wasn't angry at all. He just said "cut" and said, "I took you with me out of kindness. Since your car was confiscated by the security station, your income has been unstable. I'm here." I found a way for you to get money, you have to thank me."

Hearing this, Nick felt as if he had been stepped on, and immediately glared at the other person, "Colin! Don't forget that I was the one who led you to do this!"

"Don't worry, don't worry, someone is coming."

When Colin saw that Nick was angry, he quickly interrupted. At this moment, a group of tourists came in from outside the door. The two of them immediately stepped forward to sell, but no one on the other side listened to what they said, so they waved their hands and walked away quickly. .

The two of them found nothing and were idle again.

Colin smiled and apologized to Nick for what happened just now. "Don't be angry. I was joking with you."

Seeing that Nick ignored him, Colin was not in a hurry and just continued along with the topic, "Business has really been difficult in the past few years. Not only have there been a lot of players missing, but there have also been a lot of tourists missing."

"Nick, are you saying that our Planet Poplar is about to be completely occupied?"

The two of them wandered around and found an electronic pillar near the door to stand. After hearing Colin's words, Nick shook his head worriedly, "I don't know, but I heard from people at the security station that the situation at the border seems not to be very good." optimism."

"Hey, I originally thought that the last profit from this business, plus my wife and I's savings over the years, would be enough for us to buy a black boat ticket to leave." Colin's mood was a little depressed, and he couldn't help but look at it Nick, speaking with a bit of confusion about the future, "Nick, my wife is pregnant."

Nick glanced at Colin. This good friend who was a few years younger than him and who grew up together in Dirty Water Alley was just like him. He had never had much success and could only do some gray business. But Colin Lin worked harder than him. Over the years, he also saved a sum of money for housing and had a partner who was about the same age as him.

You know, a ticket to the Black Ship is not cheap, and the only destination you can choose is the Death Star. Some planets still have various chronic natural disasters, which are no better than the Poplar Star.

However, once the planet Popler fell, everyone became refugees, and the only places to go were the dead stars. Those who left by smuggling in advance still had a choice. The refugees had no choice and only depended on the federal arrangements.

Nick actually thought about leaving. Anyway, he had nothing to worry about in Poplar except his aunt, but he hadn't saved the money for the ferry ticket yet.

Although he didn't like gambling, almost all the money he earned in the past few years was spent impulsively on having fun with friends and on women. Later, he gritted his teeth and bought a car, intending to save money.

Since then, the number of tourists in Poplar has dropped a lot, and this kind of deceptive business is very risky.It’s not easy to make money.

They didn't get any money for the deal they negotiated some time ago. The wanted guy ran away, and the group of people from the security station took away his car on the grounds that he had provoked people he shouldn't have provoked.

Nick felt aggrieved, so that night he gathered a group of friends who had been away from him for a long time, and spent the whole night crazy in the pub. It wasn't until he was woken up by the bartender in the early morning, and the moment he saw the bill, that he realized how ridiculous the night was.

The bill completely wiped out Nick's small savings. He lay in his own house in a daze for a few days. Finally, Colin, a good friend, knocked on the door and knocked him out, saying that he had a good business with him.

After thinking for a while, Nick said in a dull voice, "It's better that you have a better life. You should be more careful after you leave and don't be sold as cheap labor by the people in the Black Ship."

"No." Colin was full of confidence. "Someone in my wife's family has stepped on the point in advance. They are now living on F-562. It is said to be not bad, but it rains acid rain every once in a while. There is not much sunshine and clean water. quite expensive."

Nick listened, endured it, and finally didn't say anything to hurt him. He just yawned and nodded, "Not bad."

"Hey, someone is here."

Just halfway through their yawns, the two of them saw two aliens wearing cloaks and looking like travelers walking into the hall. Nick and the others raised their feet to greet them, and gathered around each other eagerly. Nick held up his cowboy hat with one hand and lifted it. Lifting his chin, he chatted up and said, "Madam, at three o'clock in the arena competition, super A-level players challenge super-S-level star combatants. The seat angle is particularly good. It is specially reserved for you. You will not regret watching it. It will be absolutely wonderful."

The traveler who was accosted by Nick paused, stopped with his companion, raised his hooded head, revealed a pair of bright eyes from under the tightly wrapped brim, and glanced at Nick.

There is a play.

Nick didn't notice anything strange. He saw the other party stop, exchanged glances with Colin, and quickly continued to sell, "Madam, super S-class star combatant, the big star of Feiqi Star [Crow], you can't usually see it, you You must have heard of it, you don’t need me to introduce it, book early now, it will be full in no time.”

"Well... I happen to need it. Let's get two." Nick was very happy when he heard that the other party was willing to buy it. However, he later realized that the other party's voice sounded a little familiar.

While he was pondering in a daze, Colin quickly exchanged optical information with another passenger and crossed over two tickets with good seats. The other passenger was also very familiar with them and quickly received and bound them. He seemed to buy them frequently. It's like a private ticket, and they don't need to be taught how to bind their own information at all.

When the passenger standing next to Nick saw that the transaction was completed, she also applied for access to Nick's optical brain information and proactively sent a transfer to be confirmed.

Before Nick could open the transfer information, the two passengers had already left together. Colin made two orders and was about to say to Nick, "I'm just like you, I sold five." But before he could say anything, Colin I saw Nick's eyes widening in shock, watching the backs of the two passengers leaving.

"What are you doing standing still?" Colin stretched out his fist and punched Nick.

Nick was punched by Colin. When he came to his senses, the other person was already gone.

He looked at the transfer of thirty-seven thousand star coins in Guang's mind, and shook his head in a daze.

"Leave me two tickets, just near the two people just now. I...since you are leaving, I will treat you to a game."

"Is it true? Why did you suddenly think of this? Why, do you know those two people just now?"

"No, it's nothing... nothing."
