"What? You have ten tons of food reserves?"
Wang Liang was completely upset. Zhang Mu actually had so much food in his hands. In this case, it was feasible to trade these so-called beast cores to him. Although Zhang Mu had already told him the specific functions of the beast cores, they should be necessary items for his evolutionists who wanted to make further progress in the future.
But Wang Liang felt that even for himself, the energy in his body would still have a long accumulation process, not to mention the different levels of evolvers under him.
Compared to the unrealistic ability improvement, the appearance of Zhang Mu's ten tons of food just happened to solve his urgent need. There are a total of one thousand people in Wang Liang's gathering place. Zhang Mu's ten tons of food should be enough for him to survive for at least ten days.
What Wang Liang needs most now is time.
The reason why he kept sending out the Evolvers to clean up the zombies was because of the most critical issue, the food problem. The amount of food eaten by ordinary people was relatively small, but the consumption of Evolvers who had awakened their abilities was huge.
These days he separated the work functions of ordinary people and evolvers, letting ordinary people repair the fortifications of the gathering place and letting the evolver teams clear out the surrounding zombie hordes.
Now, the small and medium-sized zombie groups around the gathering place have basically been cleared out by Wang Liang and his team. Wang Liang dared not provoke the large zombie groups because of the painful lesson he learned last time, and now he is in a very embarrassing situation.
If Wang Liang wanted to plunder supplies from shops in other locations in Luoyang City, he would need to observe the terrain and transport the supplies after collecting them. During this period of time, the food in Wang Liang's gathering place would be consumed day by day without any increase in income, and the food would run out in a few days.
Zhang Mu's appearance directly helped him solve all the problems. He could use the twenty sets of standard weapons and protective gear that Zhang Mu brought as an important trump card to clear out large zombie groups. At the same time, he could also dispatch some personnel to transport food to further places, and the cycle continued. Wang Liang was now stuck at this point.
The ten tons of food Zhang Mu provided were enough for Wang Liang to do all this.
But Wang Liang seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and he seemed to have been poured a bucket of cold water on himself, even though he was a little excited just now.
Like water, it calmed down instantly.
"Brother Mu, ten tons of food. I have to take up half of my warehouse to store it. How did you get these ten tons of food for me?"
Wang Liang looked at Zhang Mu in confusion and asked. After all, he was also very curious about the Epoch Merchant Ring on Er Er's hand. He once mentioned it to Er Er by chance and asked about it. Er Er said that it was only a dozen cubic meters in size. Even if Zhang Mu didn't put other things in it, it would not be able to fit everything. Besides, how could a businessman like Zhang Mu only put food in it?
And the most important thing is that Zhang Mu had previously promised to sell him twenty sets of standard weapons and protective gear, which would definitely take up a considerable amount of space.
Zhang Mu smiled mysteriously, "Don't worry about this. Tell me now, do you want to do this deal or not? You don't have to worry about the rest."
Wang Liang gritted his teeth, looked at the box full of Yuanjing and said, "Okay, deal!"
Zhang Mu nodded with a half-smile, then stretched out his right hand, and a small black hole appeared near the Epoch Merchant Ring on his ring finger. Zhang Mu's mind moved, and a huge wooden box was sucked into Zhang Mu's ring as Wang Liang stared in astonishment.
Before Wang Liang could come to his senses, Zhang Mu patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't just stand there. Your warehouse is still too small. I can't put all these things away. Go out and find an empty space. I'll make room for you."
Wang Liang still didn't quite believe that Zhang Mu's ring could hold so many supplies, so he followed Zhang Mu out of the warehouse with some doubt.
Zhang Mu looked around and saw a large open space behind the warehouse, which should be able to accommodate everyone.
So he walked straight over, and when he got there, he turned around and said to Wang Liang behind him, "I'll put it here for you, and you can find someone to move it in when the time comes."
Wang Liang nodded slightly, and after a "hmm" sound, he stared at Zhang Mu's hand with great interest, watching attentively how Zhang Mu turned ten tons of food into something for him.
Zhang Mu stopped looking at him and gently stroked the Xi'an city exclusive ring on the middle finger of his right hand with his left hand.
Crash!
The moment Zhang Mu touched the ring, a large area of
Large bags of rice came out and were stacked high. When the pile reached a height of one and a half people, Zhang Mu made deliberate adjustments and immediately moved to another part of the open space to pile up the second pile.
After all the food had been delivered, Zhang Mu began to pile up large barrels of purified water nearby.
"And water?"
Zhang Mu smiled and said, "It's a matching set, with a two-ton quantity. Remember to give it a five-star rating."
Seeing that the empty space in front of him was now filled with the supplies he urgently needed, Wang Liang's eyes turned red, his breathing became heavier, and he swallowed his saliva unconsciously.
When Zhang Mu saw Wang Liang like this, he smiled slightly.
He naturally knew what a gathering place like theirs that had just formed needed now, which was nothing more than weapons and food. However, Zhang Mu could provide both of these things, and he bought them for them on purpose. The development of the gathering place in Luoyang City first would definitely help him in the future.
Moreover, even now, Zhang Mu was not losing money in business. After deducting the cost, he still made a profit of five times from one thousand Yuan Crystals. As for the transaction completed with grain, it was even more profitable. How many Yuan Crystals were these ten tons of grain worth? Six Yuan Crystals per hundred units equaled five hundred kilograms. These grains only required Zhang Mu's one hundred and twenty Yuan Crystals.
One hundred and twenty first-level Yuan Crystals in exchange for fifty first-level peak beast cores whose purity had been refined to a very high level during battles. No matter how you look at it, Zhang Mu is making a fortune.
With these beast cores, Zhang Mu is more confident about the advancement of the obsidian worms.
At this moment, Wang Liang no longer cared about where Zhang Mu's things came from or why he could store so much. He quickly asked two equally stunned guards to call more people to put some of the food into the warehouse first, and put the rest into the garage of the residential building in the most central location.
Watching groups of people slowly emptying the rice bags and large barrels of water on the open space, his eyes became more complicated as he looked at Zhang Mu. Zhang Mu's image in his mind became even more mysterious. Not to mention his strength, his ability and courage in trading were definitely several levels higher than the second person.
