Steel Chang'an

Chapter 21

"What? You need to exchange more than 2000 million materials plus two zero-type mechas?" The big shopkeeper of Jinge Arsenal was shocked when he heard Hu Mai's report, "Even if it is the work of a puppet master, it is just a piece of work. It’s just one hand, so the asking price is too high.”

Of course Hu Mai knew what the shopkeeper was thinking: Although this hand was the work of a puppeteer, a sample of this size has limited value as a research object.Hu Mai estimated in his heart that its value is more than 2000 million, and Jing Ge Arsenal does not have the ability to extract technology from it, so they will eventually give up this hand in the form of auction.

And Mu Yun immediately asked for more than 2000 million yuan, and the amount that Jing Ge Arsenal could get from this hand was only a fraction.

"Cut off half of the high-end materials listed on him, and the transaction price of this transaction cannot exceed 1000 million." The shopkeeper said.

"This..." Hu Mai hesitated, and said: "That country boy is quite stubborn. If we don't provide all the materials, he will find another mecha shop to trade."

Hu Mai didn't dare to say that it was his own mistakes that made Mu Yun's hand known to everyone.

What's more, he has already invited Mu Yun upstairs for a detailed discussion, which is tantamount to admitting that Jing Ge Arsenal recognized the value of this hand.If he fails to negotiate this deal, other mecha guilds will immediately approach Mu Yun, and all the mistakes he made before will be exposed.

It was precisely because Mu Yun took advantage of Hu Mai's weakness that Hu Mai had to speak for Mu Yun in front of the big shopkeeper, trying to help him broker the deal.

"Just follow the list he made and trade with him." Just as Hu Mai was chatting with the shopkeeper, a majestic voice suddenly said.

Hearing this voice, Hu Mai knelt down on one knee with the shopkeeper, and shouted in unison: "City Lord!"

Standing in front of Hu Mai and the shopkeeper was the owner of Wuge City himself.Seeing the city lord coming to the Jing Ge arsenal in person, Hu Mai also knew that this matter had reached the city lord's mansion, and he could no longer cover it up, so he said shamefully: "It's all the fault of the subordinates, let that kid take advantage of the opportunity and threaten him, Raise the price."

"It doesn't matter." Wu Ge said lightly, "Although the puppet master's work is priceless, but it only has one hand, it is not worth a lot of money. Your most urgent task now is to complete the deal with that kid, and then keep an eye on him. Find out where the hand came from."

"As for those materials and the mecha, let's just lend it to that kid for fun first." Wu Ge City Lord sneered, and said, "We will take back from him not just the hand, And the complete work of the puppeteer."

Walking out of the Jing Ge arsenal, although Mu Yun's face was expressionless, he was a little proud in his heart: the piece of paper he took out later was not the purchase order that Li Jing gave him, but the purchase order he received from Li Jing. After the list, based on Li Jing's thinking, I figured out the materials needed to upgrade the two zero-type mechas, and wrote them down, but I didn't expect it to come in handy.

As Chu Fengyao said before, among all the [-]-ton mechas, the skeletal frame of the zero-type mecha is the closest to that of the special mecha, and it is also the only mass-produced mecha that can be modified.For knights like Li Jing and Mu Yun, who are used to operating special mechas, and want to build their own personal armor from scratch, the zero-type mecha is naturally the most cost-effective choice.

That's why Mu Yun immediately understood the purchase list listed by Li Jing and wrote down the materials needed for these upgrades.The batch of materials he listed are of course not all the materials needed to upgrade from Type Zero mechas to special mechas.

When Mu Yun returned to the hotel, Jing Ge Arsenal had just delivered the mecha and materials, and Mu Yun happily signed for it.It is not completely unreasonable for the hotel in Wuge City to charge a high price. In addition to the guest rooms, there is also a hangar behind the hotel.After Mu Yun transported the mecha and materials into the hangar, he went back to the guest room and briefly explained to Li Jing what happened in Jinge Arsenal.

Hearing that Su Sheng's body turned out to be the work of a puppeteer, Li Jing was also taken aback. He was lying on the bed smoking a cigarette, but he sat up suddenly and almost dropped the cigarette, saying, "I knew this brat was so valuable. Why should we take him apart and sell him? Unscrew the kid's head and sell the whole body, enough for us to exchange for two special mechas!"

"No way, you are so cruel?" Mu Yun knew that nine out of ten words Li Jing said could not be taken seriously, but at this moment, he was really not sure whether Li Jing was joking or not.After all, Su Sheng was not Li Jing's own son, and Mu Yun really didn't dare to say what an unscrupulous person like Li Jing could do.

"Nonsense, of course I'm joking." Li Jing dusted off the soot on the bed sheet, lay down again, and said, "Do you know how much it costs to ask a puppeteer to make a body? I don't know Su Mu How Gan found the puppet master back then and asked him to agree to make a body for Su Sheng, but he must have paid a huge price."

"You mean..." Mu Yun understood what Li Jing meant: If Su Mugan really regarded Su Sheng as a useless person and had no hope for him at all, why bother to pay such a high price to beg for him? A body made by the puppeteer himself?

"I mean, you have to take a long-term view." Li Jing said slowly, "The body made by the puppet master is certainly priceless, but if we can escort this kid to the northern border safely and push him to the throne of the iron alliance lord At that time, his worth will be more than a few cities?"

"What if this kid can't become the lord of the Iron Union?" Mu Yun couldn't help asking.

"Then it's time to unscrew his head and sell it." Li Jing said lightly, and lit a cigarette again.

"Hey, hey, I'm still here. In front of a cute child, I said that I'm going to screw his head off and sell him. Is this really okay?" Su Sheng said with a sad face, "Although I know that you, boss, will never I will do this, but can you not be so heartless when speaking? I feel that my young heart has been hurt!"

"Don't be ridiculous, you, a prosthetic body, have no heart at all, okay?" Li Jing said mercilessly.

Su Sheng clutched his chest and fell onto the bed with a bang. Even Mu Yun could hear the sound of Su Sheng's young heart breaking into pieces, but Li Jing didn't even bother to turn his head, and said to Mu Yun : "Speaking of business, how much did that hand sell for?"

"2000 million, in addition to the two zero-type mechas and accessories listed on your purchase list, some materials have been changed." Although Mu Yun said with a deadpan expression, he thought of Hu Mai's embarrassed look. , but also quite a bit proud in my heart.

Who knew that after hearing this, Li Jing shook his head and said, "It's a pity, you could have asked for more materials."

"What do you mean?" Mu Yun frowned.He is not really a country boy who has never seen the world, and he also knows the value of the puppet master's work, but with that one hand alone, Jing Ge Arsenal is willing to buy it for 2000 million, and he thinks it is already the limit.

"Do you think that Jing Ge Arsenal will be satisfied with just getting one hand?" Li Jing said lightly, "They negotiated this deal with you just to stabilize you, so that they can find the body other than the hand from you. other parts of the

"You think I won't be able to see it?" Mu Yun said angrily, "If it wasn't for this purpose, why would they be willing to take out 2000 million mechas and materials in exchange for this one hand?"

"Since this is the case, you should take advantage of this opportunity to blackmail them and ask for more materials." Li Jing said, "Anyway, you are already a dead person in their eyes. No matter how many materials you want, they will Here it is, because they have already made up their minds, no matter how many materials you exchanged from the Jing Ge Arsenal, they will take it back from you with interest. At this time, why not ask for more materials? a little?"

"Shameless..." Mu Yun was shocked, deeply shocked, not because of Jing Ge Arsenal's shamelessness, but because of Li Jing's shamelessness: at this time, you can still think about knocking out the other party's money, this is who!
When Mu Yun faced Hu Mai, he already felt that he was influenced by Li Jing unknowingly and became cunning and cunning.Comparing with Li Jing now, I realized that I didn't even touch the threshold of the words "old, treacherous and cunning".

"I know it's a loss, I will learn more in the future." Li Jing said, finally got up from the bed, patted Mu Yun's shoulder,

"You are not allowed to fight in Wuge City. Even the owner of Wuge City must abide by this rule. As long as we stay in the city, we will be safe for the time being. You and Su Sheng stay here, and I will go to the hangar to remove the two machines. Armor is assembled, and tomorrow morning, we will go out of the city while there are many people."
