Chapter 129
Shaoxing Yang scratched his head and said, "Although Yan Hong and I have some knowledge, we don't have many ways, so I don't think we can be of much help."
Xu Manwen: "It's better to have a solution than no solution at all. It's better than nothing."
Just when a few people felt that things were difficult, Lu Shiyu smiled mysteriously.
"Just because we don't have a way doesn't mean others don't have a way."
Xu Manwen was puzzled: "Why would they let you use other people's connections? What do they want from us?"
Lu Shiyu raised his index finger and shook it: "No, there will always be people willing to make selfless contributions."
Lina: "So how did you see that I have the quality of selfless dedication? Tell me and I will change immediately."
The narrow dormitory was full of people, and Lina's single dormitory didn't even have enough room to stay.
Lu Shiyu uttered a cry of regret, took Lina's hand and said, "We are all friends, we should help each other."
Lina struggled to pull her hand back, but to no avail, and angrily said, "We've only met once!"
Lu Shiyu: “No, it counts as twice including now.”
"Is there a big difference..." Lina looked at the shameless Lu Shiyu and asked through gritted teeth, "I'm still in labor reform, and you're asking me to get involved in organized crime. Do you think my sentence is too short?"
Lu Shiyu pointed at Tang Zeyu and said, "This person has connections. He can help you reduce your sentence."
Lina continued, "Even if I serve my sentence, I won't be able to find a job because of the stain on my record."
Lu Shiyu pointed at Chen Yunliang and said, "His family is wealthy and it will be easy for him to find you a good job."
Lina's eyes became sharp: "Who do you want to deal with?"
Lu Shiyu: "A senior executive at the Shuguang Base."
Lina slapped her thigh and pointed to the door, saying, "Get out, you're kidding me, aren't you?"
Lu Shiyu explained: "I'm not kidding you, really."
Lina sat on the edge of the bed and asked Lu Shiyu, "Are you guys really crazy? You escaped capture at the Dawn Base, not only did you not live a good life there, but you actually ran back and walked into their trap. Now you're talking about overthrowing the top brass at the base. Do you think you're the saviors?"
Lu Shiyu also thought it was a bit outrageous, but he still said stubbornly, "Hey, I have to come back."
Lina asked in confusion, "Why not? No one is asking you to do anything. Isn't it nice to be an ordinary person and live an ordinary life?"
Lu Shiyu sighed and said, "But in a disaster, how can ordinary people live an ordinary life? I would like to be an ordinary cook, but look at how many tragedies the apocalypse has brought. It's impossible to just turn a blind eye and pretend nothing happened. Now I'm telling you there's a way to restore the world to its original state. Can you resist trying it?"
Lina was surprised: "Have you found a way to solve biological distortion?"
Lu Shiyu nodded and briefly explained the whole story. Lina was silent for a long time before she said, "I can use the captain's name to do something in the black market, but I have to act quickly. If those cunning people find out something's wrong, I'll definitely be chopped into pieces."
Lu Shiyu smiled and replied, "Understood!"
The other people didn't say a word the whole time, and they saw Lu Shiyu take down Lina alone.
Lina led a few disguised people to bypass layers of protection and come to the underground black market. The black market was no less lively than the market on the ground. As they walked through the crowded streets, Lina explained the rules to them.
"When you get there, remember to keep quiet. If you're asked anything, just say you're new here and don't know anything. You have no family and are orphans from an orphanage. If you meet someone you know, just pretend you don't know them."
Several people silently memorized the rules and followed Lina all the way to the depths of the black market.
The further they went in, the fewer people there were. When they arrived in front of a building, there were only a few of them and a few guards around.
Lina was a familiar face in the black market. After she gave her name as Duan Ren, she was quickly allowed to pass, but several people behind her were stopped.
"Who are they?" asked one of the guards.
Lina turned around angrily, pointed at the security guard and said, "They are the new people I am training. Is there any problem with them?"
The guard hesitated: "Newcomer..."
Lina complained frantically, "I'm so annoyed, so annoyed, so annoyed! Being asked by the captain to lead a new member is already annoying enough! And you, blind man, keep asking questions. I ask you, uncle! Do you still want to check my household registration?"
The guard was startled by Lina's sudden anger. Since Lina usually had a bad temper, the guard just thought it was bad luck that he ran into the other party's gun. He was afraid of offending the other party's captain, so he could only let a few people pass.
Thanks to Lina's improvisation, the group passed the first level without any danger, and then faced the more difficult lackeys.
"Hey, little Lina is here," the black man glanced behind Lina and asked, "Where's your little follower? Why didn't he come with you?"
Lina rolled her eyes and said unhappily, "What the hell is your business."
"Tsk tsk, what a bad temper," the dark-skinned man stared at the people behind him, his smile barely visible. "You even brought outsiders in. Little Lina is really getting more and more capable. Does your captain know?"
Lina looked up at him and said unhappily, "Stop staring at my captain. Serving your master is your top priority."
The dark-skinned man withdrew his gaze and nodded slightly: "You are right, so I can't let you bring these people to see my master."
What he meant was that he refused the meeting.
Lina was furious and shouted, "Do you know how good the relationship between my captain and him is?"
"It's no use being nice, you're not your captain."
Lina was so angry that she jumped up and down, but there was nothing she could do.
Lu Shiyu put his hands behind his back, took out something from the supernatural space, walked forward and showed it to the dark-skinned man.
"Can I use this to see...your master?"
The dark-skinned man took a closer look and his pupils suddenly shrank.
"Of course you can," the dark-skinned man said amiably, his expression changing instantly. "Why didn't you tell me that Captain Duan had called you here? I was just blocking you. Please come in."
Several people were invited into the room. After the door closed, Lina frantically dragged Lu Shiyu's hand holding the thing and exclaimed, "Where did you get it from?"
Lu Shiyu was holding a shiny silver tag in his hand. Although Duan Ren's name was not engraved on it, anyone who could tell what it was could tell who it belonged to at a glance.
Tang Zeyu was also puzzled: "Duan Ren's things? When did you get them?"
Lu Shiyu stammered, "Well, that day when I went to visit him in prison, I chatted with Duan Ren for a while, and then he asked me if I wanted a good thing, and then he gave me this."
Tang Zeyu looked at the tag and asked, "Did he give it to you for free?"
"No, he wants me to exchange something."
"Exchange?" Lina was puzzled. "What can I exchange for this from the captain?"
Lu Shiyu poked his hand and said, "Yes, it's the one you gave me..."
At that time, Lu Shiyu took out many things from the space, but Duan Ren was not satisfied with any of them. Lu Shiyu simply took out a bunch of things from the space and let Duan Ren choose by himself. As a result, Duan Ren dug out the potion that Lina gave her before leaving from a pile of miscellaneous items. He looked at it meaningfully for a long time before saying that he wanted this. As soon as the two of them finished exchanging, Tang Zeyu finished talking to Yi Donglin and wanted to take her out.
Lina screamed and grabbed her hair, "It's over! The Captain definitely knows I'm still alive now!"
Lu Shiyu comforted him: "It's okay, your captain is still alive..."
Lina collapsed and covered her face: "Another bad news."
Lu Shiyu: “…”
You mercenaries have really bad relations.
With the help of Duan Ren's tag, several people successfully came to the biggest businessman in the underground black market, who was also the master behind the black market.
An old man with slightly silver hair was sitting on a cigar chair smoking a cigarette. He just raised his eyes when he saw a few people coming in.
"Lina, you're too noisy."
"sorry"
Lina, who is always irritable, is particularly well-behaved in front of this person, which makes people feel that the person in front of her is scary.
"Tell me what you want from me."
Lina glanced back, and Tang Zeyu walked forward and told the old man in front of them their needs.
The old man shook the newspaper, took a deep puff of cigarette, and slowly exhaled the smoke.
"You're just looking for something. There's no need to come all the way to ask an old man like me for help."
Tang Zeyu explained, "The things hidden by the base are certainly not ordinary. Ordinary methods and people can't find them at all."
Without even looking up, the old man put out his cigarette in the ashtray and asked, "What are you prepared to give me as compensation for my efforts?"
It was time to negotiate terms. Tang Zeyu pondered for a moment and asked, "What price do you think is appropriate?"
The old man closed his eyes and said, "I'm not short of money."
It’s strange, the boss of the black market doesn’t want money?
Yan Hong and Shao Xingyang exchanged glances, surprised that the person in charge of the black market was actually a strange old man.
What do you want if you don’t want money?
Tang Zeyu asked cautiously: "What do you want?"
"A ticket to a new world."
The old man opened his cloudy eyes and said, "I hope there will still be a place for us in the new world."
It is unclear who we are, but the direction of the new world is clear.
Tang Zeyu understood that although he didn't know what means he used, the old man in front of him already knew about the existence of the meteorite and knew that they came from the Dawn Base. He knew better than the top leaders of the Dawn Base that the meteorite would definitely appear in the world and bring about huge changes. At that time, the structure of the entire human society would once again face an earthquake.
The other party is extending an olive branch. As long as they accept the other party's help, everyone will be on the same front.
"Can."
Tang Zeyu agreed readily.
…
After leaving the black market, Lu Shiyu asked worriedly, "Do you really want to help them gain a foothold after the apocalypse?"
The black market is a mixed bag. It cannot be said that there are no good people, but there are definitely a lot of criminals. This force should have been wiped out after the end of the apocalypse, but now Tang Zeyu has reached an agreement with them to help them after the end of the apocalypse.
Tang Zeyu chuckled, put his hand on Lu Shiyu's head, leaned down and said in a low voice: "You lied to him."
"Why?"
Tang Zeyu said, "Let's trick the people first. As for the agreed reward, that will be eight hundred years from now. We can just deny it then."
Lu Shiyu was so shocked that he stuttered: "You, you, you are trying to get something for free!"
"How can you say it's free?" Tang Zeyu gestured. "When the time comes, I'll arrest them all and send them to reform schools. Wouldn't that be like leaving space for them? It's not like I'm going to arrest and execute them all."
Just when Lu Shiyu was so shocked that he couldn't stand it anymore, Yan Hong and others came up from behind and patted Lu Shiyu on the shoulder.
"You've seen the captain's true face," Yan Hong said. "I didn't expect the captain to be this kind of person."
Shao Xingyang came out from the other side and said, "He's already our captain, how can he be any better?"
Chen Yunliang pushed his glasses up and said, "Captain, you've been so serious for so long, I'm still a little uncomfortable with it."
Lu Shiyu and Lina both opened their mouths in shock. Lina looked at Lu Shiyu and said, "Why do you look shocked too? Didn't he walk all the way with you from Dawn Base to Dawn Base?"
Lu Shiyu: “…………”
Damn it, this guy hid so well, she didn’t even notice!
