Just as the official judgment of Han Jingjing and others, the Geocentric Clan had indeed arrived nearby a long time ago, but they had just been hiding in the dark and never came out.
It's not all that the Inner Earth Tribe is showing off. They can't lurk out. First, they avoid risks and are afraid of being plotted by humans in the surface world. On the other hand, it's naturally because of the corrosive power of the surface world. They can't do too much fearless consumption.
When dormant, the whole body's blood and body functions are infinitely close to the dormant state, the consumption is low, and the corrosive power of the surface world is relatively low.
Seeing the Earth Center Clan popping up like weeds, Yang Shuangxi's subordinates were not too surprised. After all, this was not their first time trading with the Earth Center Clan. Although the scale was not so large in the past, the Earth Center Clan's
The routine is not unfamiliar to them either. It’s just that this time there are several times more Earth Core Tribes.
The adventurer team, which originally had only twenty or thirty people at most, had only one or two hundred traders. This time, the scale has expanded five to six times.
On the Geocentric Tribe side, visual inspection also showed that there was a team of close to a hundred people.
No wonder the masked man who negotiated with Yang Shuangxi seemed confident. Compared with the number of people from the Earth Center Clan and Yang Shuangxi's team, there was no real difference. Maybe the total number was just a few dozen less.
However, the adventurer team of the Geocentric Clan is a day of licking blood almost every day. They have fighting genes instinctively. In a one-on-one situation, the combat effectiveness of the Geocentric Clan will definitely be superior to that of the same level. And Yang Shuangxi's
The team on the side is actually mostly a mob. They are good at bullying ordinary people. If they really encounter a life-and-death battle, the Geocentric Clan will have no problem beating three or five of them.
Even in the surface world, the Inner Earth Tribe must consider issues of consumption and erosion. One versus two or one versus three in a short period of time is no problem at all.
Even in a critical moment of life and death, one versus five is completely achievable.
Therefore, the Earth Center Clan is extremely cautious, just to avoid being plotted and encountering a large-scale ambush, not because they are afraid of Yang Shuangxi's group of cats and dogs.
How capable the Golden Fox Group is? In fact, this group of adventurers from the Earth Center Clan have already figured out their direct lineage. Not to mention the people led by Yang Shuangxi, even if the entire Golden Fox Group has hundreds or thousands of people, it will not be enough.
More rabble.
If you really want to take advantage of others, you may not know who will eat whom.
The Geocentric Clan intends to have long-term cooperation, so although they had many opportunities to take advantage of others, they did not choose such an extreme method. It is not that they cannot do it, but that they do not want to break this long-term cooperative relationship.
After all, having someone help them capture the prisoners would save them a lot of trouble. If they really wanted to hunt them down on a large scale, they would have to take into account issues such as a waste of spiritual power and excessive corrosive power.
After careful calculation, this method of cooperation is definitely more cost-effective. It is equivalent to the Golden Fox Group being the contractor, and the Earth Center Tribe being the boss of Party A. They only need to pay to receive the goods.
Of course, this is not free, but compared to the high profits they made from the Earth Center Tribe, the remuneration they paid to the Golden Fox Group was actually only 20% of the profits.
This kind of long-term cooperation with guaranteed profits and infinitely reduced risks has no reason for the Earth Center Tribe to break it. They also expect the Golden Fox Group to continue their efforts and create more profits for them.
But today, listening to Yang Shuangxi's tone, the base behind the Golden Fox Group was actually targeted by the authorities and was in a serious crisis.
This long-term cooperation is also likely to be interrupted, casting a huge shadow on the cooperative relationship between the two parties, and whether they can continue to cooperate is already a question mark.
This made the masked leader feel somewhat conflicted.
At this time, Yang Shuangxi stopped in front and said in a solemn voice: "Sir, do you understand the rules? Send someone to count the number of people first, and the others will wait outside. Don't come over yet. Don't blame me for speaking badly. Our business is back.
In business, there are still rules to follow.”
The masked man chuckled, but did not object. Instead, he gestured to the team to stay away and send two shrewd men to count the heads.
There are more than a thousand people, and it will naturally take some time to count them.
The leader of the masked men smiled and approached Yang Shuangxi and said, "Yang Yingguan, do you, Commander Hu, have any precise statement about the future cooperation?"
"We'll talk about the next step after we survive. If he has money, he will definitely make it. Captain Hu is a man who would rather give up his life than his wealth. As long as he lives, he will definitely do this business."
"Haha, if you tell me the truth, Officer Yang, does Commander Hu have a high chance of surviving this time?"
As he said that, the masked man calmly stuffed Yang Shuangxi with a bulging thing. It looked heavy, and it was obviously a particularly valuable thing like rough stone and gold.
The negotiations between the two parties were so difficult before, and the masked leader never thought of secretly handing money to Yang Shuangxi. Now, he actually did this.
Yang Shuangxi smiled and actually put the small bag into his pocket without any courtesy.
"Your Excellency has been so sensible, so it will be easier to talk to him!" After accepting the money, Yang Shuangxi's attitude immediately changed 180 degrees.
"Please make it clear to Yang Yingguan that we attach great importance to this cooperative relationship."
Yang Shuangxi thought about it carefully and lamented: "Having said this, I can only tell the truth. This time the entire base is not optimistic and is in danger. As a golden robe envoy, Captain Hu was appointed by the Tiangang boss
With such a heavy responsibility, it is impossible for him to leave the base. Therefore, he narrowly escaped death this time, and there is a 99.99% chance that he will be buried with the base."
After saying that, Yang Shuangxi sighed: "My patrol mission here is over, and according to the rules, I have to return to the base for a last-ditch effort. So, Your Excellency, this may be the last transaction between us..."
The masked man's eyelids lowered slightly, and he seemed to be deep in thought after hearing this. Obviously, this sudden change also made him a little entangled.
"Yang Yingguan, you finally escaped from the sea of misery. If that base is destined to be destroyed, what is the reason why you have to go back?"
This question actually stopped Yang Shuangxi.
Is there any reason why I have to go back?
"Do you have a family? Do you have a wife and children who are still in the base?"
Yang Shuangxi shook his head: "That's not true. In the past, people like me didn't have a house, a car, or hundreds of thousands of savings to pay the bride price, so I couldn't afford a wife."
"Then...just because you are a battalion officer, do you have to go back and be buried with him?"
Yang Shuangxi said in a daze: "Sir, you might as well say what you have to say."
"What I mean is that if Commander Hu is destined to be unable to escape, Yang Yingguan can definitely take over this business cooperation. The terms of our cooperation will remain the same, and the amount will remain the same. It's just the money earned by Commander Hu, and it's up to you Yang
The camp officer is just here to make money. He travels thousands of miles just for money. I really can't figure it out. Yang Yingguan finally escaped from the flames, why did he go back to die and be buried with him? Instead of staying outside to make a fortune by himself? You have this group of brothers, and you are still worried.
No place to take you? Or are you worried that you won’t be able to have a bite to eat?”
It's quite straightforward.
It was so straightforward that Yang Shuangxi was speechless for a moment. According to what the other party said, this was really the case. What reason was there to not enjoy the colorful world outside, but to go back and be buried with them?
Yang Shuangxi looked surprised and stared at the other party in amazement: "Are you sure you can do this business with me?"
"Naturally, I want prisoners, and you want money. What do you think you can't do in this business?"
Yang Shuangxi nodded slowly, and then thought: "But what if, I'm talking about what if, what if Captain Hu survives. How should we calculate this business?"
"To be honest, I prefer to do business with straight white people like Yang Yingguan. You, Captain Hu, have the ability, but you have too much trouble. If it were between you, I would rather do this business with Yang Yingguan."
.Besides, even if Commander Hu survives, he has no one under his command. Are you still afraid that he will threaten you?"
Yang Shuangxi didn't know if the Geocentric Clan had a body temperature of 36.5 degrees, but what the other party said was definitely cold and cold at dozens of degrees below zero.
This was instigating him, Yang Shuangxi, to commit rebellion.
But according to the logic of the world, if Yang Shuangxi is a ruthless person, he should do this.
You, Captain Hu, have made so much money from trading, but your brothers are not even allowed to drink a morsel of soup. This in itself is a hateful thing, and it is normal for the people below to be alienated.
Yang Shuangxi's previous resentment was actually due to this mentality. He felt that Captain Hu looked too ugly.
So, when the brothers, big and small, are dissatisfied with Captain Hu, they rebel against their superiors, replace Captain Hu, or even make him disappear. Isn't this the most primitive logic in the world?
Of course, Yang Shuangxi still had to pretend to be reserved: "Isn't this... a bit uncomfortable? After all, Captain Hu has helped me."
"Haha, Yang Yingguan, you are a smart man, I won't say anything more. If you don't care for yourself, you will be destroyed by heaven and earth. You have worked hard for him these days, and you have also made a lot of money for him. I have to say I'm sorry, but
It’s hard to say who can’t forgive whom. Besides, in this world, does it matter who can’t forgive whom?”
Yang Shuangxi's eyes were sparkling, but there was still a bit of hesitation about whether it was true or not.
"Your Excellency, this matter can be considered. However, until now, I know nothing about your situation. I have to know who I am cooperating with, right?"
The leader of the masked man chuckled: "I don't believe you know nothing. There are some things that you don't need to put on the table, right?"
"Of course I know where you are coming from." Yang Shuangxi said and pointed to the ground.
"But who is your surname? You must have a name, right?"
You are from the Earth Center Clan. We all know this in our hearts and there is no need to say it explicitly. But even if you are from the Earth Center Clan, you still need to leave a name, right?
"My name is Baizhang." The leader of the masked man simply said his name, and obviously did not intend to reveal too much other information.
"Is that it?" Yang Shuangxi was a little worried.
"Haha, as long as it does not affect our transactions, these fictitious things are not important. What is important is whether each transaction is real money and whether it is profitable, isn't it?"
At this time, the Geocentric Tribe's men who were counting people had already completed the head count.
"Sir, after counting, there are 1,235 people in total. The oldest is no more than 50, and the youngest is about 8 and 9 years old. Basically, they are high-quality people."
Yang Shuangxi curled his lips: "Nonsense! If you are not a high-quality population, how can you survive until now? The old, weak, sick and disabled were eliminated in the first wave. Those who can survive until now are all very tenacious."
After the head count is completed, the next stage is naturally the real money stage.
Although the scale of the transaction this time was much larger than before, the masked man, Baizhang, did not drag his feet on this link.
On the contrary, he paid very quickly. And it was completely based on the past unit price, which was worth every penny to Yang Shuangxi.
"Yang Yingguan, just tell me, is this money easy to make? Do you want to keep making it?"
After the settlement was completed, Baizhang smiled and asked. Against the background of real money, these words seemed very bewitching and convincing.
Yang Shuangxi glanced around, as if confirming some information, and suddenly sighed.
"It's easy to make money, but I'm afraid I won't be able to spend it without my life, because it's so harmful to the world and will cost me my descendants."
Baizhang's face darkened: "Yang Yingguan, are you sorry that all those words I just said were in vain? I never thought that Yang Yingguan still has such a heavy moral baggage?"
I don’t know whether this was a mockery or a question.
Yang Shuangxi shook his head: "Baizhang, right? I won't make any more money, I just want something."
"What?" Baizhang frowned.
"You...and the heads of your men..."
After saying that, Yang Shuangxi did a backflip and landed twenty or thirty meters away, shouting: "Everyone is here, form a formation to protect these prisoners!"
Obviously, they have practiced all this before in the pit head base. Although these subordinates are all a mob, after training, simple formation will naturally not be a problem.
The most important thing is that they also have a group of official personnel mixed in, which undoubtedly injects soul into this team and builds courage.
How strong is the official force? The heads of people like Tiangang Dizang Qingfeng are the most convincing.
Baizhang never expected that Yang Shuangxi would dare to fall out with them and even brazenly demand their heads?
These wastes in the surface world have really never experienced the iron fist of the Earth Core Clan.
Not only was Baizhang not afraid, but he showed a slightly arrogant and weird smile: "Yang Yingguan, are you obsessed with something? There is a saying that goes like an egg hits a stone. You need to understand it more deeply!"
"Your Excellency Baizhang, there is a saying that people die for money and birds die for food. If you do this business that is harmful to nature, if people don't accept you, God will accept you too."
Baizhang laughed loudly: "Heaven's Harvest? What is Heaven? The Geocentric Clan has been hiding deep underground for several epochs. They only know that there is land, but they don't know that there is sky. How virtuous is Heaven to dare to come and collect us?"
"Yang Yingguan, I originally thought you were a smart person, but it's a pity that you are not smart. Since you don't make any money when I give it to you, I can only take the money and you as well!"
With more than a hundred people, it was also a very lucrative deal.
Yang Shuangxi sneered: "I'm afraid you don't have such good teeth."
Baizhang was about to speak when suddenly the team behind him screamed in surprise.
