Chapter 1448 The Eagle Point Black Market is in trouble!
Although the Tesla Territory provided official access documents through the official channels of Golden Eagle, the surrounding territories were not aware of this matter.
In the past, the federal territories might have made an announcement to let them pay attention to what happened.
But recently, the smell of gunpowder between the major territories has become stronger and stronger, and no one cares about such trivial matters at all.
This also allowed Salvado to not encounter many obstacles when contacting the alliance for action.
In addition to the Tyrell territory, a total of three territories joined this operation.
They are the Violet Territory, the Green Forest Territory, and the Turgia Territory.
The three have a population of more than 10,000 people, and their strength rankings are also slightly lower, ranking 21, 27, and 29.
"Two hundred people, two hundred people is the limit we can bring out!"
Salvador exhaled helplessly. Originally, Tyrell's territory only planned to send out 80 people.
After all, taking the lead means sacrifice, and he simply does not have enough appeal to make so many people sacrifice their lives.
Especially when you attack someone of the same kind in order to plunder the other person, this makes people resist from the bottom of their hearts.
However, the lords of the three territories of the alliance are not stupid.
Although there are only less than 3,000 people in the Boulder Territory, the defense team may only have a hundred people, or even less.
They have a naked geographical advantage!
This is not like the territory on the plains, where there are doors in all directions, and you can enter wherever you want.
Although the location of the construction of the boulder territory has been criticized by people around it, the only thing that can be attacked is that it cannot be planted.
In terms of defense alone, none of the surrounding territories is stronger than Boulder.
Including Julang Territory, which has a population of 200,000, it is even worse than Big Rock.
Even if they can catch each other by surprise, they might be dragged into a fight to the death on the mountain road.
At that time, if the number of people is not suppressed by more than ten times, even if they can be defeated, there will be heavy casualties.
This is not the result that the lords want.
"Damn Boulder, maybe they have already thought of the value of the technology they have, so they built their territory on the mountain. How cunning!"
‘Fuad Oliva’ from the Violet Territory said this.
"Yes, after careful study, I found that even if we conquer this territory, the ultimate benefits and risks will not match. Otherwise, should we forget about it?"
The lord of the Green Forest Territory, ‘Juan Ekko’, was also on hand to make up for the damage in time.
As soon as the two opened their mouths, only 'Deni Berger' from the Turgia territory was left.
But without him having to say anything, Salvado knew what this guy would say.
"Two hundred and fifty people, this is my bottom line. If you still don't want to, just pretend I haven't mentioned it."
There are 370 standing guards in Tyrell territory.
Salvado was able to mobilize about 120 people, and the rest were all small family groups.
In the past, it was quite difficult to unite these people by relying on profit. It was absolutely impossible for these people to fight with him.
Furthermore, even if he was really willing to go along, he couldn't afford the price these people proposed.
Currently, there is a shortage of 130 people, so he plans to use most of his wealth to recruit people in the black market.
There is no shortage of people working hard for supplies. As long as you have money, you can easily gather enough people.
As for whether these people would escape before the battle, that was not something he should be concerned about.
Anyway, as long as the number of people is gathered together, the four families combined will have at least seven or eight hundred people. No matter how strong the Boulder Territory is, they will probably be scared to death when they see so many people.
"Okay, since Mr. Salvado is willing to send so many people, of course we will cooperate."
After knowing the situation in Tyrell's territory and knowing that this is Salvador's limit.
Fouad slapped his thigh, stood up immediately and said: "We from the Violet Territory are willing to send two hundred people!"
"Green Forest, one hundred and eighty people."
"Turgia, one hundred and fifty men."
The total of the four families is 780 people, which is almost ten times the number of guards in the Boulder Territory.
Just in case, the three territories reached an agreement and each funded recruitment in the black market.
Assuming that there are twenty people per family, this will provide an additional sixty people for logistical support.
A total of 840 people can definitely take down the boulder in one fell swoop!
"Well, without further ado, the time will be set at midnight tomorrow night."
"When the time comes, we will gather in your territory and take a boat there to catch him by surprise!"
A valley about eighty kilometers away from the boulder territory.
There is a special force located here.
Eagle Point Black Market.
Its predecessor is similar to Stone Village, and it is also one of the resource points left by the Golden Eagle.
It's just that Stone Village is about mining, but Yingjiao Village is a well-known entertainment area.
Even after the Golden Eagle was relocated as a whole, the place was not abandoned and was gradually transformed into a special black market integrating multiple functions.
Now, the Eagle Point Black Market not only retains its original entertainment services, but can also achieve various special purposes through semi-official channels.
For example, mercenary fighting force.
A large number of desperadoes with knives licking blood gathered here, drinking to drown their sorrows all day long without thinking about the future.
Another example is purchasing some special items that are not officially allowed to be traded.
The important parts sold by Salvado were transferred through black market channels.
In addition, there is a faint shadow of the golden eagle involved behind the black market.
As long as enough benefits can be paid, a deal can even be reached with the federal territory of Golden Eagle.
It was already twelve o'clock at night.
The black market is still brightly lit and bustling with people, making people forget that this is the end of the wasteland.
Whether it's a tavern on the shore, an auction house, a flower boat floating on the water, or a gambling house.
There were crowds of people everywhere, and it looked like there were three to five thousand people staying here.
Pearl Tavern.
A tall and burly figure pushed open the wooden door of the tavern and walked in with hungry burps.
His appearance did not attract too many people's attention, until the figure sat slumped on a wooden chair in the back, and then the bartender came belatedly.
"Mr. Grizzly Bear, are you still the same today?"
"Well, give me two more sandwiches, I'm going to starve to death!" the figure replied angrily, rubbing his shriveled belly.
"OK."
The bartender nodded and left, but came back after a while:
"Sorry, sir, the money in your account seems to be insufficient."
"What, I remember. Okay, damn it!" Grizzly Bear subconsciously wanted to refute, but he didn't expect that the other party skillfully pulled out a bill, which clearly recorded every purchase, accurate to two decimal places.
Bit.
Moreover, the red fingerprints one after another were all placed by him with his own hands, so there was no room for quibbles.
"can it"
"cannot!"
"How do you know what I'm going to say?" The grizzly bear's eyes widened, and a menacing aura came over him.
"It's not allowed to have a debt, it's not allowed to be in debt. This is the rule of the tavern."
"Damn it, can't I, an old customer, do the same?"
"Even if you are the boss's father, you cannot break this rule." The bartender refused skillfully.
In addition, the plainclothes security guards in the tavern also quietly came over and touched their waists one by one.
This is not a civilized area, and it is common for people to draw guns and pull out guns in exchange for a few words.
Grizzly Bear obviously knew the secret here. After thinking about it, he had no choice but to lower his head.
Although his physique might make you bluff, he is actually just a third-rate mercenary.
He is not needed for physical work. People think he eats too much and is clumsy and needs to rest after only a few strokes.
He wouldn't dare take part in a combat job. With such a big body, he would be a living target and he would be shot into pieces immediately.
What he can and is willing to take are basically jobs that scare people.
For example, if there is a conflict between two forces in a certain territory and they cannot use guns, they will invite him to come over and calm down the situation.
The results are often good, and only then can you survive in the black market without worrying about food and drink.
Just because you don't have to worry about eating and drinking doesn't mean you can spend a lot of money every day.
With the further implementation of the golden eagle resettlement policy and the improvement of the public security atmosphere in major territories, the number of jobs available to grizzly bears has become less and less.
Only in the past week, he has not received any offer from any employer.
"Then... just serve wine!"
Grizzly Bear made a compromise, and the bartender frowned at the bill, nodded and left.
The above funds can also buy two glasses of wine, but according to his drinking capacity, these two glasses are obviously not enough.
After a while, the wine was served.
What surprised Grizzly Bear was that there were three glasses of wine on the plate, as well as two sandwiches.
This surprised him and made him look confused.
"This is."
"That gentleman bought you something to eat."
Following the bartender's instructions, Grizzly Bear turned his head and saw a somewhat lame Chinese man smiling.
"he?"
Grizzly Bear quickly searched his memory, but could not find the scene of him talking to this person.
He pondered for a while, picked up two glasses of wine, walked over, and sat across from the man.
"Sir, thank you for your generosity, I don't know"
"I know you, Grizzly Bear, want to ask you to do something for me, which is what you are good at."
"What am I good at?" Grizzly Bear was stunned for a moment, then nodded happily: "You tell me!"
"In a few hours, several people will come here to hire mercenaries to participate in territorial wars. I hope you can apply and become one of them."
"Territory war?"
Grizzly Bear's face darkened: "Sir, are you kidding? This is not what I am good at!"
"No, no, no, I know you, and I got your information."
The lame man smiled confidently: "Listen to what I'm saying. I'm not asking you to apply for the job. I'm not asking you to participate in this territorial war. You just need to run away after the war starts."
run away
The grizzly bear smacked his mouth, thought for a moment, and said in shock:
"Could it be that they hired mercenaries to deal with your territory?"
"It seems that you are not as stupid as the intelligence said." A hint of appreciation appeared in the lame man's eyes: "Is it difficult for you to escape from the battlefield?"
"I will give you a reward, and they will give you a reward. You don't have to do anything to get two rewards for free."
"Sounds like a good idea."
The grizzly bear nodded happily, but he didn't agree in his heart.
If he really calculated it this way, he would still be able to earn three times as reward for informing the lame man on him.
There are black market rules in the black market. How can it be so easy to escape in the face of battle? It will ruin your reputation!
"What price can you give me?"
"It depends on your ability."
"What do you mean?" Grizzly Bear frowned, somewhat confused.
"We have received information that they may be recruiting about two hundred people in the black market. I am interested in your ability, so I am willing to give you two choices."
"First, I will give you twenty eagle dimes according to the market price. You only need to escape during the battle, and you don't need to worry about anything else."
The lame man looked calm, not worried at all that this information would be leaked.
"Second, if you help me find these two hundred people, I will pay them twenty eagle cents. In addition, I will give you twenty eagle cents for each person found."
"What?"
The grizzly bear suddenly stood up from the stool with a look of surprise on his face.
Eagle dimes are the common currency of the black market.
One coin can be exchanged for about three glasses of wine, and twenty coins are enough for a person to spend a week on the black market.
Now you can get twenty eagle dimes for every person you find?
Are you kidding me?
If he can find enough 200 people, wouldn't he be able to get it?
Grizzly Bear calculated in his heart that four thousand eagle dimes would be enough for him to spend four years on the black market.
Four years!
"You're not lying to me, are you?"
"Of course not. We can make a black market contract. I will pay the funds first. As long as this battle is over, I can come back to settle the matter at any time."
"Then you, you don't want to take advantage of others, do you?"
Pfft.
The lame man laughed directly, showing a meaningful smile.
"Compared to what we can get after the battle, do you think this little money is a problem?"
"That's a territorial war."
yes.
It was a territorial war, a winner-takes-all war.
The grizzly bear reacted immediately, and his breathing became a little thicker.
"Of course, you can also tell the truth and see if these guys will offer you the same price."
"No, I agree to your terms."
"Oh? You don't have to think about it anymore?"
"What are you thinking about? The black market has been unstable recently. If a territorial war really starts, then I need a fund to buy supplies and leave here as soon as possible. I will wait until the crisis is over."
The Grizzlies gave their reasons.
After not receiving any commissions for a week, he had already vaguely felt that the current environment was not good.
The operation of the black market is supported by the consumption of these people at the bottom.
But these people have no source of income, how can the black market continue to prosper?
"Very good, it seems we can sign the contract."
The lame man picked up the wine glass, took a small sip, and raised the glass to signal.
The grizzly bear understood, and ate two sandwiches in two bites, and drank two glasses of wine.
The two quickly came to the contract shop in the black market and signed a contract with clear restrictions.
After doing this, the lame man excused himself and left first.
Grizzly Bear came to another tavern with a new contract and found an acquaintance.
"Hey, Victor, let me introduce you to a business that is sure to make money without losing money. Do you want to listen?"
"The reward is generous. I will keep it to your satisfaction. I will give you ten eagle coins for every person I find!"
