Chapter 82 Chapter 82 Warnings from Special Offers...
Watching the people on both sides arguing with each other, not to mention Shifang and his friends who had no patience, even Wu Jin, the backbone of the opposing team, seemed a little bored.
Everyone has their own tasks, and it would be more appropriate for him to be responsible for the aspect of military strength.
Fortunately, after a brief negotiation, they temporarily reached a consensus on the terms they demanded from each other.
Wu Jin and his team agreed to stay in the market temporarily, mainly responsible for the security work outside the market security team, and have a cooperative relationship with the market.
During the protection process, their main task is to deal with unexpected situations that may occur at any time. At the same time, when any accidents happen to the nearby market teams, they must provide support as quickly as possible.
Simply put, they bear the greatest responsibility for the safety of the market, and the market only needs to ensure that some resources for the defense team can also be tilted towards them.
This is a highly profitable collaboration.
However, the other party seemed to have some objections to this clause, but since the clause had been preliminarily reached, they had no choice but to find another opportunity to negotiate.
However, just as the negotiations were temporarily over and both sides were preparing to leave the meeting area and regroup, Wu Jin, who was at the end, suddenly spoke.
"Have you ever thought about going to the authorities?"
After hearing Wu Jin's words, Shi Fang and Zhang Rui, who were on the same floating object, looked at each other, took the lead in pulling Zhong Yuan and Yu Jianyi away, and had no intention of participating in the subsequent conversation.
They are still very satisfied with their current life. They have enough food and clothing. Although safety issues are still on everyone's mind, there is still a certain degree of security with effective measures.
Even if they really wanted to go to the official base, what would they do? If they hadn't even seen a trace of it, would they really abandon everything they had to go look for it?
Such a choice was simply too easy for them, but if the two most important people in the market really made this decision, they would have no objection.
The main point is to be obedient.
"So what if you want to find it?" Lu Baian turned around and looked at Wu Jin with an eager face. "After all, it's just a piece of news. It's not certain whether we can find it or not."
"What if?" Wu Jin looked at Lu Baian with lingering hope, "What if the official base really exists? Have you never thought about going and taking a look?"
This time, before Lu Baian could say anything, Chang Ruijia rolled her eyes. "Captain Wu, you're being ridiculous. You've seen the scale of our market. Do you really want us to abandon these people in search of some illusory hope?"
Seeing the hesitation on Wu Jin's face, Chang Ruijia continued, "Even if we really lead the market to find the official base, and you, the captain of a team, are still hesitant about joining the market, how can we make a decision?"
"I'm sorry, I took it for granted." Wu Jin pursed his lips, obviously taking Chang Ruijia's words into consideration.
Lu Baian didn't say much throughout the whole process. Seeing that Wu Jin had nothing to say, he simply paddled away on the floating object. From a distance, he could still hear the words of comfort from the people behind him.
"Forget it. Everyone has their own aspirations, and not everyone is like us. Aren't we also the ones who have been displaced and have temporarily given up our original ideas?"
"I won't give up. Sooner or later, we'll have to find an opportunity to search for the official base."
…
The new team joining the market did not cause much commotion. After all, for people who live from hand to mouth, it is normal to see new faces every day.
So, although for Wu Jin and the others it was a major life decision, for most people in the market, it was like adding an extra spoonful of salt to the breakfast dish, and would not cause any ripples.
However, the matter of the official base mentioned at the end did cause some fluctuations in Lu Baian's heart. Chang Ruijia had seen him looking thoughtfully at the sea in the east several times when passing by.
"What? Are you still thinking about the official base they mentioned?" Seeing Lu Baian looking worried, Chang Ruijia finally couldn't help but stepped forward and asked.
"What do you think the official base will look like?"
"I don't know," Chang Ruijia shrugged, her eyes following his gaze towards the distant east. "Maybe it's thriving. After all, it belongs to the country, and there are many talented people. Maybe even skyscrapers have been built. Or maybe it's all just a beautiful imagination, and even the population is still very small... Who knows?"
"Yeah, everything is unknown." Lu Baian sighed. That's why he was both yearning for and timid about the official base Wu Jin mentioned.
Although the market today is not a huge place, every person here is a living being. Every time you pass by the market, you can feel the vigorous vitality.
How could we rashly take the lives of so many people and rush towards an unknown future just because of a few people's one-sided words?
Chang Ruijia also knew the pressure Lu Baian faced, which was why she was hesitant about whether to join a team.
When a person begins to be full of pressure, every step he takes must be carefully considered.
She understood the necessity of this pressure, but she didn't want to burden herself with it.
As a woman who owns a huge Kan Yi Dao shopping mall, it would be more appropriate for her to be a free and easy-going leisurely traveler. However, if necessary, she doesn't mind doing business with such a team.
Hey, wait a minute! Chang Ruijia slapped her head fiercely, ignoring Lu Baian's surprised look.
She is still here nagging to comfort others, without even taking a close look at the points she gained from the "group" she cut earlier!
I was so excited for so long when facing the monster fish, but now I have forgotten it so easily.
Chang Ruijia didn't care about Lu Baian's complicated emotions. She hurriedly said hello and goodbye, then turned around and rushed home.
"Hey!" Lu Baian was still immersed in his thoughts the previous second, and when he looked up the next second, he saw only a hurriedly leaving back, with a helpless look on his face.
How can you comfort someone and then run away halfway? I really thought that after all the hardships, the shell had been opened a little, but the result was... Alas.
Chang Ruijia didn't care what Lu Baian thought. Her mind was now filled with the joy of regaining control of the Kanyidao Mall.
Hahahahahaha, after not seeing her for such a long time, she still remembers all kinds of things in the Kanyidao Mall. I wonder what new things will appear this time.
It seems that every time a new product is available, there will be special offers in the mall, right? Chang Ruijia recalled excitedly, this is really a fruitful harvest!
After finally returning to the quiet settlement, Chang Ruijia couldn't wait to drop the oars and get into the tent, her hands rubbing so hard that sparks were almost coming out.
"Buddha bless us, there must be something that doesn't exist yet!" Chang Ruijia closed her eyes and prayed, and finally clicked the mall button that she had not seen for a long time.
Carefully squinting her eyes, Chang Ruijia finally saw the [Special Offer] product section that had not been updated for a long time. However, she did not expect that the system, which had never been generous, would have two items in the special offer this time.
The specific uses of these two products are worth discussing.
[Marine outboard motor: high horsepower, small size, fast speed, and extremely cost-effective, it is a great tool for escaping. Yes, it is exactly what you think it is.]
[Marine Propeller: Three-bladed propellers, stainless steel, durable and easy to use. I gave you two because I was worried you wouldn't be able to run fast enough. Oh, this is such a kind system mall.]
Chang Ruijia was not at all happy about the sudden increase in the number of discounted items in the system mall. Instead, the text in the mall introducing the uses of these two things made her break out in a cold sweat in the windless and heatless tent.
Escape? What escape? Why would I need something to escape?
She still remembered that the last time she had an escape tool was just before she met Lu Baian again. At that time, he encountered a group of pursuers the next second after he changed out. If it weren't for the emergency use of the oar, she would probably have been eaten by the fish.
But now the situation is stable. Even the monsters under the sea and the people on the sea have their own ways to avoid them, not to mention ordinary humans. How could there be something more convenient and useful than a paddle?
What's more, Chang Ruijia fell into deep thought as she looked at the introduction of the stern engine and propeller. These two things could probably be considered high-tech products.
Thinking of this, Chang Ruijia's hand, which was originally suspended in mid-air, suddenly turned and directly opened the "Line" product column next to it. Sure enough, she saw a must-have item that could be used with the two items.
Diesel: A light petroleum product widely used in large vehicles, ships, generators, and more. Although it's cheaper, use it sparingly to avoid large-scale pollution.
Gasoline: A light petroleum product widely used in cars, motorcycles, speedboats, helicopters, and agricultural and forestry aircraft. It's a rare and valuable commodity, but it's a bit expensive. Be careful about pollution.
After the special offers were updated with the emergence of new species of monster fish, the types of goods in the mall also underwent a lot of updates.
But what attracted Chang Ruijia's attention the most was the combination of these two fuels.
"It turns out that something big is going to happen." Chang Ruijia muttered to herself.
The usually stingy system mall actually put two very useful fuels on the shelves at the same time this time, and they were exchanged with extremely low exchange rights for new products. It was obvious that this was to give her a greater chance of survival.
What kind of disaster could make the System Mall help her at all costs? Chang Ruijia didn't dare to seriously imagine the reason, but she knew it must not be a simple disaster.
My heart, which had gradually become relaxed due to the temporary peaceful life, once again became involuntarily tense.
"Huh, this really doesn't let us have a moment of peace." Chang Ruijia said with a wry smile and shook her head.
However, the most important thing at this moment is to find a way to install these two life-saving items. Looking at the decomposition machine that was exchanged in front of her, Chang Ruijia thought in embarrassment.
