Once there, they quickly learned what each person needed to know, and then led them into a small room.
Lu Yuan and Xiao Shan sat in the room and waited for about two minutes before a middle-aged man arrived.
The man was of medium build, with some scars on his face, and was dressed in a sharp suit, just like the other people in the area. He smiled slightly, walked to the table, and sat down opposite the man.
He first opened the booklet in his hand, then glanced at its contents, and looked at Lu Yuan, asking, "Sir, you're asking about second-tier crystals, right?"
Lu Yuan nodded slightly and said, "That's right, that's right. What we want to inquire about is the second-order dimensional crystal. Do you have any descriptions of this kind of crystal?"
After a moment of contemplation, the other party pushed another booklet in front of Lu Yuan.
"Let me first explain our pricing rules. The matter you want to inquire about is highly confidential, and the price is very high. If you want to inquire, you can choose based on the specific matter you want to know! Here are the items you need to select!"
Lu Yuan and Xiao Shan were slightly taken aback, but once they picked up the booklet, they immediately understood what the other person was talking about.
Because this involves the most confidential matters in their military region, a large sum of money is required to find out. Lu Yuan and Xiao San do not have any money at the moment; all they have is supplies. They have come today to discuss the price.
Unexpectedly, the other party didn't even ask any questions and immediately started asking him for money. Lu Yuan felt that this was definitely a bottomless pit, and it would cost a lot of money to find out the truth.
However, money was just a number or a measure of supplies to Lu Yuan. After a quick look, he immediately found information about crystals, but there were no prices listed.
Lu Yuan pointed to the line of text about the golden energy: "How much money would it cost to inquire about these things?"
After taking it, the other party glanced at the number on it, pondered for a moment, and said, "It will cost ten million to inquire about this matter!"
Lu Yuan still doesn't have a deep understanding of the supplies on their side, especially the ten million; he doesn't even know roughly how much it's worth.
After a moment of silence, he asked, "Approximately how much is ten million? How much in resources is it worth? If converted into gold, how much would it be worth?"
The other person chuckled softly, then picked up a booklet, glanced at it, and read today's currency prices: "Ten million today is roughly equivalent to one ton of gold!"
Upon hearing his words, Lu Yuan was stunned: "A ton of gold? Holy crap! No way, that's expensive?"
The other party chuckled softly, then sighed and said, "You don't know that these things are already very cheap for us. Isn't it a very worthwhile thing for you to inquire about a very confidential matter for a ton of gold?"
You can find out the information without paying any price, while the military has to pay for all sorts of casualties, weapons and equipment damage, and ammunition consumption.
"All of this is money. Before the apocalypse, a ton of gold wasn't much, only a few hundred million, something some wealthy people could easily pull out!"
Then the other party began to persuade Lu Yuan.
After listening for a few minutes, Lu Yuan hurriedly interrupted the other person: "Oh, okay, okay, stop talking. I understand what you mean, but I don't have the money right now and can't pay for it. By the way, the price won't go up again, will it?"
"Yes, it will definitely rise if it's too late. The current price is based on the price of the day. However, the price between currency and gold has been very stable recently, so there probably won't be a significant increase within two months. Therefore, you'd better come back within two months!"
After learning this information, Lu Yuan nodded slightly. He was still a little worried and wanted to inquire further, but the man's mouth was as tight as glue, and he refused to say another word.
Having no other choice, Lu Yuan had to give up on the other party.
However, he did not intend to leave just like that, because he still needed to plan how much money he could earn.
He found those people in the black market again and exchanged all the remaining fish for gold.
At this point, he finally understood that he would need about a hundred tons of fish to exchange for that much gold.
After learning this news, Lu Yuan nodded slightly, and then got into the car with Xiao Shan and went home.
After they got home, everyone was quite worried about the two of them, but they all breathed a sigh of relief when they saw them return.
So everyone started asking the two about what they had encountered along the way.
Lu Yuan briefly recounted the events that had occurred on the road, leaving everyone with expressions of shock.
"Yes, I think it's great. I didn't expect them to develop so fast; they've already established a small city-state!"
"That's right, we need quite a lot right now. We don't have any furniture or small appliances. We don't have a factory right now, so we can't produce them. But we could exchange them!"
"We can't eat grilled fish every day here. We need pots, pans, and cooking utensils. Why don't we go over there and ask around? Maybe we can find some other projects!"
"Haha, we finally have a market for these fish! It seems we no longer have to worry about having too much fish and nowhere to sell it!"
