In a short while, led by the guards, Wang Ci arrived at Wei Lun's courtyard.

At this moment, Qin Jiayou and Zeng Guangtian were both holding guns and were very vigilant in the courtyard, while Qin Mutong was also holding a lightsaber.

In the eyes of the people at the base, Wang Ci was a very difficult person to deal with; they had been swindled out of a lot of money by him in the past.

Upon seeing Wei Lun and Wang Ci, Wang Ci bowed slightly.

"Boss Wei, Brother Qin, we meet again!"

Wang Ci came with a purpose this time, and of course he couldn't be as arrogant as before.

Qin Jiayou smiled, his guard lowering slightly, while Wei Lun wore a curious smile.

"Wang Ci, what brings you here? Is business bad at the outpost?"

Wei Lun made a flippant gesture, offering only a few polite words.

"I know that Boss Wei has laser weapons, so I came here specifically to see if I could buy them from you?"

Wang Ci got straight to the point, without beating around the bush, explaining the purpose of his visit: to buy laser weapons from Wei Lun, presumably to resell them for a good profit.

Because weapons production at Wei Lun's place had only just begun, Wang Ci was certain that Wei Lun had no idea about the market price of laser weapons, giving him ample opportunity to profit.

"Your information network is really impressive; you seem to be getting all your supplies from me. Hehe, since you're here, let's talk about the prices!"

Wei Lun wasn't one to pass up a chance to make money. He didn't know the exact price of laser weapons, but he was certain they would be significantly more expensive than ordinary weapons.

"I presume you're still in production. I'd like to pre-order the first batch of goods. As for the price, how about 10,000 crystal cores per laser weapon?"

Wang Ci wasn't stingy. He knew that Wei Lun wouldn't agree to a lower offer, but if he offered too much, he wouldn't make any money.

They had been operating in the black market for many years and were very shrewd in controlling profits. A laser weapon that cost 10,000 crystal cores could be resold for tens of thousands of crystal cores, making the profit several times higher than that of ordinary weapons.

Qin Jiayou and Zeng Guangtian were somewhat surprised to hear the price. They knew that a laser weapon costing 10,000 crystal cores only required a few thousand crystal cores to produce the materials, leaving a large profit margin.

However, Wei Lun didn't care about the price at all. After all, there aren't many people capable of producing laser weapons these days.

“Wang Ci, your sincerity is not quite enough. How about this, my production has just started and I still need my own guards first. We can talk again when there is another opportunity.”

Wei Lun politely declined Wang Ci's proposal. Although 10,000 crystal cores seemed like a lot, in reality, the production of laser weapons was very slow, and it was impossible to make a high profit from it. In fact, he would not even earn as much as Wang Ci.

Anyone else would have agreed, but Wei Lun has modern goods, all of which are profitable. He doesn't lack that little bit of money at all. Wei Lun's biggest worry is that the weapons will fall into the hands of his enemies, wouldn't that be asking for trouble?

Wang Ci was somewhat surprised by Wei Lun's refusal. Could it be that he had offered too low a price?

However, Wei Lun has made it very clear that he wants to use the weapons himself at the beginning, so this deal is off. At least he will have to wait until Wei Lun has equipped himself before he can have a chance to order more weapons.

"In that case, I won't stay any longer. If the Boss wants to sell laser weapons, he can come to the Sixth Gathering Place to find me anytime!"

After Wang Ci finished speaking, he turned and walked outside, a vicious look on his face, but Wei Lun didn't see it.

Qin Mutong looked at Wei Lun, puzzled, and asked, "Honey, we can make a profit at this price, so why don't we do this business?"

Qin Jiayou and Zeng Guangtian also stepped forward, puzzled, hoping to find the answer in the boss's reply.

"I don't like him, and laser weapons are our trump card right now, how can we sell them so easily?"

After saying that, Wei Lun smiled and added, "You'll understand later. Call Lin Xinyue over here."

Zeng Guangtian immediately walked outside, intending to call Lin Xinyue. Although they didn't know why their boss made this decision, they firmly supported him.

A short while later,

Lin Xinyue walked into the courtyard and saw Wei Lun waiting for him there. She quickened her pace and walked over to Wei Lun.

"Reporting, boss, Lin Xinyue reporting!"

After Lin Xinyue finished speaking, she bent down and waited for instructions from her boss.

"Lin Xinyue, I need you to go to the Sixth Gathering Site to do something. Find Wang Lieyun, who came here before, and buy 200 bottles of Level 2 Enhancement Agent from him."

As he spoke, Wei Lun took out a crystal core card and placed it on the stone table.

"This is the money for buying Level 2 Enhancement Agents. Buy as many as you can, but if you can't buy more, buy 200 for now. Go and come back quickly!"

Wei Lun confessed that Lin Xinyue was extremely excited about the boss's trust in her, holding the crystal core card.

"Yes, mission accomplished!"

Lin Xinyue took the crystal core card and went out to run errands.

Shortly after Lin Xinyue left, Lei Long suddenly ran in from outside.

"Boss, we've got news from the settlement!"

Lei Long strode in, holding a piece of paper. Qin Jiayou, Zeng Guangtian, and Qin Mutong all looked at the paper in Lei Long's hand with great curiosity, wondering what it was.

Wei Lun glanced at the paper.

"Hello, Boss Wei. I am Cai Zhenshao, the highest leader of the Sixth Gathering. I learned from Wang Lieyun that Brother Wei Lun is very powerful, so I would like to extend a special invitation to you to join the Sixth Gathering! The conditions are easy to negotiate. You only need to provide boxed lunches and cigarettes to become a shareholder of the Sixth Gathering and share in its profits and future. Let's work together to achieve great things! You are welcome to come anytime. I will send Wang Lieyun to receive you. Please rest assured, the Sixth Gathering welcomes you!"

After reading it, Wei Lun smiled and then handed the paper to Qin Mutong, Zeng Guangtian, and Qin Jiayou.

Lei Long had only received instructions from the Sixth Gathering Place and hadn't even read what was written on it yet, so he asked curiously, "Boss, what exactly is going on?"

Zeng Guangtian tapped Lei Long on the head.

"Didn't you take a look before you came? What if it contained swear words? Would you have shown it to the boss?"

Zeng Guangtian was utterly speechless at Lei Long's erratic behavior; he hadn't even checked things out before coming.

"Boss, what do you think about this?"

Qin Jiayou asked, then stared intently at Wei Lun's face. They were actually very interested in joining the Sixth Settlement, because that was the real human settlement. If they could become shareholders, it would mean that they would have a real foothold on this land.

Unlike a base, a base is merely a temporary turning point for self-defense and development.

The sixth gathering place is the place that everyone truly yearns for. Now, with the option to directly invest, wouldn't it be possible to become the master of one's own dreams?

"I'll think about this. I'll try to be more patient in the future. We'll encounter this kind of thing a lot more often."

Weren did not make a decision immediately because he needed to consider what would happen to the base once he joined the settlement, including security, various guarantees, and other aspects.
