"Lao Zhang, are you here to stake out again today?"
Zhang Mu heard a familiar voice. Although it seemed to be a long time ago, Zhang Mu could still answer the person who spoke subconsciously without turning around, "Yes, I just want the first few Jiyuan agents to be slower this time."
He looked ahead for a long time before slowly turning his head to look at the boy in the straw hat behind him. Zhang Mu was the fifth-ranked merchant in Luoyang City, and this boy was the fourth-ranked. Neither of them had any preferential treatment in the Epoch Trade, although they felt a sense of sympathy when they met. Although they were both solitary, they could always chat for a while when they met.
Because they are the only ones who need to accurately calculate the opening time of the Epoch Store every time. If the merchants ahead of them do not arrive at the first moment when the Epoch Store opens, then their trading order does not need to be ranked according to the order, and Zhang Mu and his friends will be able to hold on for a long time this time.
The lazy voice of the young man in the straw hat floated behind him, "Lao Zhang, last time you said that the goods from the Jiyuan region would be shipped to Xi'an, I went to Shanxi instead, and I ended up making a little profit. What do you think?"
This seemed to be one of the few topics between them, which was to discuss the fluctuations in trading prices in various places. It was enough to kill time and was beneficial to both parties.
Zhang Mu answered the boy without even thinking, "Some made a lot of money, some sold at almost the purchase price, but overall it's not bad, about 20% profit, I should be able to complete this task after a few more transactions. According to you, there is no loss in this market overall?"
The young man waved his hands, put his hands behind his head, and lay down on the big lawn. He slowly said the news, "Old Liang is dead."
Zhang Mu was somewhat shocked. He immediately turned his head and stared at the boy's expressionless face, unable to speak.
This old man Liang is a third-rank era agent merchant in Shanxi City. He can get a 10% discount on transactions, so he lives a comfortable life. In addition, he is kind to his peers, so he is well-known in the industry and is a recognized good guy.
No matter what
What was Mu thinking in his heart? The young man continued, "Isn't the market here too volatile? Apart from people like us who walk the tightrope and speculate on the short term, basically no one wants to play. The same is true for Old Man Liang. His mission deadline is coming soon, and he is a little greedy. He played a big game. According to his previous experience, he thought that short-term investment would collapse and long-term investment would generally make huge profits. However, it took him a long time and a long way, and it took him several months to get to Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Who knew that after several months, the purchase price in Jiangsu and Zhejiang was only a little higher than the 10% discount he got.
Things became even more interesting when he came back, as all the goods he brought back from Jiangsu and Zhejiang were lost.
Lao Zhang, I have never seen the expression on Old Man Liang’s face. He just knew that he was getting closer and closer to death, but there was nothing he could do. He felt that kind of despair and helplessness. "
The young man paused, his tone fluctuating slightly, "And then, he died in front of me just like that."
Zhang Mu had heard the whole story, but his heart was not disturbed at all. He replied to the boy, "We made a lot of money last time, and he got a taste of the sweetness. Although our profit is small, it is still easy to reach the bottom line of the task if we work hard."
The boy seemed a little surprised by Zhang Mu's cold tone and looked up at Zhang Mu.
Zhang Mu also felt that his reaction was abnormal. According to his memory, he should be very grateful to this old man Liang because he had received his help once. But for some reason, that strong sense of strangeness always lingered, so naturally his tone became very cold.
The young man did not think about it any more, thinking that Zhang Mu had seen too much. "Over the years, we have seen quite a few Jiyuan agents being sucked dry by Jiyuan merchants' rings. I just didn't expect that even Lao Liang, who is third in line, can't meet the minimum requirements. This road is getting more and more difficult."
After saying that, he saw the one in his hand and suddenly felt a little angry. He tried hard to pull it out, but after failing, he gave up the idea with a miserable laugh.
"Old Zhang, life is so tiring."
This voice kept lingering in Zhang Mu's mind, echoing over and over again.
It gradually spread through Zhang Mu's emotions, and a kind of mental fatigue instantly emanated slowly from Zhang Mu's heart.
But there weren't many, just like a seed planted in Zhang Mu's heart, lurking there.
But soon, the beam of light rose up, and as a result, only one person stood at the overlapping area of the Epoch Store. Zhang Mu and the straw hat boy smiled at each other, and Zhang Mu quickly forgot the discomfort in his heart just now.
Surprisingly, only one of the three Epoch agents with priority showed up this time, which means that as long as this person is not unlucky enough to get everything, then Zhang Mu and the others will not just be able to share a sip of soup this time, but will be able to tear off a large piece of fat meat. You know, they never had this kind of treatment in the past.
Seeing the figure slowly disappear into the beam of light, Zhang Mu glanced at the boy in the straw hat, then stood up and rushed in that direction. Without looking back, he said, "We don't know when the two people ahead will be back, so let's go in first." Because if they fail to enter in the first time, even the top three merchants will have to sort their trading order in the Epoch Store according to their entry time. In other words, as long as Zhang Mu and his friends get in before them, even if it's only one second later, the Epoch Agent merchants ahead of them will have to queue up behind them obediently.
Zhang Mu and his friends also stepped into the Ji Yuan store. At this time, the two were separated. Zhang Mu was left alone in such an empty hall, waiting for the mechanical voice of the system to notify him after the Ji Yuan agent in front of him completed the transaction.
He felt that this scene should be normal as he had already traded in this scene many times before, but he didn't know why he had this illusion. He felt that this place shouldn't be like this.
But soon, a familiar dripping sound interrupted his thoughts.
It seems that the transaction speed of the Epoch Agent in front is very fast! It's my turn so soon.
The doubt in Zhang Mu's eyes was replaced by excitement. As long as he completed one more order with a profit of more than 20% and came back, he would be able to complete the minimum target of this mission, and who knows, he might even get more.
