Chapter 80 Chapter 80 An acquaintance wants to see you
The incident of the monster fish brought quite a few surprises, but apart from the team brought by Lu Baian and Shi Fang, no one else was able to witness the spectacle with their own eyes.
Those who heard the news and stayed in the market waiting, when they saw the team returning safely, thought that the people were brought back safely because of the timely rescue.
With the two news coming out in sync, such a heart-shaking event was quietly suppressed, but someone mentioned it to their friends in shock.
However, such a shocking scene was too hard to believe, and it was eventually dismissed as a rumor.
However, after this experience, the respect on the faces of those guard members who had not had a deep impression of Chang Ruijia before could no longer be ignored when they met her again in the two districts of the market.
That was all a story for later. At this time, after Lu Baian and his men finally returned to the market, some of the people he had arranged to stay in the market suddenly rushed out.
"Don't worry, brother. We are all..."
Before Lu Baian finished speaking, the most conspicuous big brother in the front had already passed her floating object and rushed directly towards Chang Ruijia at the back of the team.
"Sister, you are finally back safely. Big brother almost hurt you again!" Speaking with a Northeastern accent, the big brother was so excited that tears were about to come out when he saw Chang Ruijia.
The monster fish corpse had been cleaned up on the way. Chang Ruijia, who was cleaning the space at the end of the bed under the guidance of Zhong Yuan, suddenly looked up and saw a familiar figure rushing towards her.
Zhong Yuan was so shocked by the terrifying scene that he almost dropped the oar in his hand into the sea.
Fortunately, when I looked up, I saw that there were people I was familiar with protecting me. Now I would be able to return to a familiar place soon, so I felt a little more at ease.
"Who are you?! Don't come any closer, or we'll attack you!"
Hearing Zhong Yuan's words, the team that had originally taken over the rescuers immediately became alert: Although they had rescued the people, this separation was a bad move, right? Why did it look like they were going to take action?
Fortunately, Chang Ruijia's words appeared in time to stop the insecurity that was brewing among people on both sides.
"You are...Brother Hongta? How did you get here? Were you one of the people rescued by Shifang before?"
At first, Chang Ruijia was a little slow to react when she saw a strong man rushing towards her, but after listening to the strong man's concerned words, coupled with the conspicuous floral cloth on the strong man's floating object, the memories of her previous experience suddenly came to her mind.
Could it be that these two people know each other?
Looking at Chang Ruijia and Hong Ta reunited after a long separation, both Zhong Yuan who faced the mighty man and Shi Fang who brought people back had the same question in their minds.
Lu Baian, who was being too sentimental again, touched his nose and looked at the two people in front of him who were about to rush onto a floating object, and couldn't help sighing in his heart.
Why does he feel that since he has been in contact with Chang Ruijia for a long time, he has done more and more stupid things?
Regardless of what other people on the other side thought, they were both very excited to finally see the familiar girl and brother, and they almost hugged each other and cried.
"It's me, sister. It's been so long since we last met!" Hong Ta looked around at Chang Ruijia, who appeared unharmed, and said excitedly, "The last time we separated was before the fog. If it weren't for the protective suit you left for me, I'm afraid..."
Seeing that Hong Ta was about to bring up the previous incident, Chang Ruijia's eyebrows jumped. She didn't intend to let him continue and interrupted him directly.
"Hey, isn't that because there are so many places to exchange things in your market?" However, seeing that there were only a few people following Hong Ta, Chang Ruijia was a little curious, "Brother Hong, why are you guys here? What's going on..."
Seeing that the two were about to continue chatting outside the market, Lu Baian hurried forward and said, "Let's talk inside if you have anything to say. It's not a good idea to continue chatting outside like this."
Chang Ruijia nodded. Although the cables in the market would not have any miraculous effect on the monster fish under the sea, they were still necessary for some unexpected impacts.
Since they were planning to enter the inner space, Zhong Yuan, who had been following Chang Ruijia all the way, had no reason to stay any longer. After saying hello to Chang Ruijia, he released his floating object through the bridge and went back.
However, before going back, Zhong Yuan, at Chang Ruijia's instruction, also brought the corpses of the monster fish she brought back back into her flower pots.
For Chang Ruijia, the monster fish she had secretly harvested under the sea before were enough for her to unlock the next level of Kan Yi Dao mall permissions. If she took away the remaining monster fish corpses, there would be no way to get them back out of thin air, so she might as well do the market a favor.
"Then you guys chat first," Zhong Yuan grunted as he carried back several extremely long fish. He looked at Lu Baian and said, "I'll give these fish carcasses to Sister Zhang Rui first, and then I'll find someone to gather them."
Lu Baian nodded. For this group of people who had just arrived at the market, they not only had to examine whether it was safe for them to join the market, but also had to pay special attention to the purpose and reason for their migration.
After all, there is already an organization in the market. If they are just vanguards who want to join the market, they will have to discuss it with several other market partners.
Chang Ruijia believed that Lu Baian and the others could handle these things, and she would know everything before making the final decision.
But before that, Chang Ruijia looked at the excited Northeastern brother Hong Ta in front of her and smiled slightly. She could first get some other information from other sources.
Compared to the familiar person standing behind everyone with a vigilant look on his face... for Wu Jin, the big brother Hong Ta from the Northeast is the best breakthrough point.
So after entering the market's cordon, Chang Ruijia secretly glanced at Lu Baian and reasonably took away Hong Ta, who was excited and wanted to have a "private chat" with her.
"Sister, I'm so excited to see you here." Seeing that there was no one else around to disturb us, Hong Ta immediately said excitedly, "If we had known you were here, we would have brought people here earlier, and we wouldn't have had to paddle east for so long and work in vain."
"Who knows?" Chang Ruijia said with a smile, "I'm helpless on the sea, and I don't even know how to leave a signal. Who knows who I might meet in the next second?"
"Yes," Hong Ta nodded sadly, as if recalling something sad. "There's no village or shop in the middle of nowhere. If it weren't for this secluded environment, we wouldn't have ended up like this..."
"Hey, Brother Hong," Chang Ruijia heard that Hong Ta's words seemed to contain something important. She turned her eyes and asked curiously, "Are you an exploration team out to gather information? The scale of your market has developed quite well now. If you come across anything good, don't forget me, your sister."
"Hey, what kind of exploration team is this?" Hong Ta waved his hand dejectedly, as if stimulated by the magnificent scene Chang Ruijia was talking about. "We just wanted to go somewhere, but ended up drifting here and were accidentally targeted by those monster fish."
"Want to go somewhere? Then you don't want to go to the market anymore?" Chang Ruijia asked doubtfully, "It's not easy for a team this size to find a place at sea after abandoning their homes and careers."
"I have no home and no business," Hongta sighed. "Everything is gone. It was all lost in that storm. Only these few people are left."
"Ah," Chang Ruijia didn't expect that she would find out such a sad story. For a moment, she looked at Hong Ta and didn't know what to say to comfort him. "Brother Hong, don't be so..."
"It's okay," Hong Ta adjusted quickly. He probably used to comforting himself during the time he was floating on the sea. "That's why we have to live well and live out their lives as well."
"Yeah," Chang Ruijia nodded.
Although she had only passed through the Hongta market briefly during the period of intense sunlight, she had interacted with the people there. Thinking of how those lives were swallowed up by the sea, she couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
"Speaking of which, sister, this market you have now is really advanced!" In the end, it was Hong Ta who got rid of his sentimental mood first and changed the subject. "I have never seen such a large market. Even before the storm, we couldn't reach the level of this. And your platform is really cool!"
"It has to develop slowly," Chang Ruijia said without taking credit for it. "There are many talented people in the market, so they can naturally come up with various ways to benefit life."
As she spoke, Chang Ruijia looked Hong Ta up and down, "Brother Hong, why don't you stay here too? I believe your floaters will be able to show their skills here, and they may even be better than the ones you had at the previous market."
"That feeling..." Hong Ta was so excited that he almost jumped up from the floating object, but suddenly he seemed to think of something and stopped moving. "Uh, sister, this may not be possible. You know big brother. It's not my responsibility to make decisions. Otherwise, since I have asked, and the environment is so good, big brother will definitely stay without even stuttering."
"Oh," Chang Ruijia nodded as if she had expected something, remembering the figure she had accidentally seen in front of the market. Sure enough, she was right. The person who made the decision among the group must be that person. "Okay, then I won't make it difficult for you, big brother. Today, let's talk about our relationship. I'll take you to the market for a good stroll!"
"That's great!" Hong Ta clapped his hands and laughed.
Even though they arrived at the market so early, on the one hand they were worried about Chang Ruijia who was luring the monster away, and on the other hand the people in the market would not let them wander around the market easily.
Now Chang Ruijia has great power in the market and will definitely be able to take him anywhere. What's wrong with having a free guide?
Hong Ta was thinking of finding out the details of the market, and on the other side, Chang Ruijia was not so naive as to take people with her to reveal her secrets.
This is called giving sufficient temptation to attract big fish to take the bait.
Putting aside other things, just looking at this group of people being able to hold on for so long under the monster fish and easily keep up with Shifang's escape speed, if you can absorb them into the market, it will be a great help.
As for the conditions, that was something Lu Baian and the others had to discuss. What she had to do was to put a huge temptation in front of them in a reasonable way.
Chang Ruijia and Hong Ta looked at each other, and headed towards the interior of the market with their own thoughts.
