Chapter 70: Exorbitant Price



Chen Wangping heated up the mutton soup and meat, then walked to the second-level manufacturing table to check the results of last night.

【Level 1 Mechanical Crystal】×31.

Mainly because there are not enough magnets.

As Chen Wangping packed his things, he thought, "I have to start mining magnetite when I get back tonight, and try to upgrade the energy system as soon as possible."

After packing up his things, Chen Wangping took out the radio from the storage compartment.

Extend your antenna and be alert.

Weather forecast

Tomorrow it will be sunny within 50 kilometers of Huoniu City, with wind speeds of two to three.

【Wasteland Tips】

Magnetite requires a wooden pickaxe to mine.

【Unspeakable Tips】

Ask for a high price and pay a low price.

The sound of the wind

"Chichichichi! (The ironwood trees in the east will transform tomorrow! We're going to have a feast!)

"Chichichichi!" (Luckily, the golden eagle disappeared, otherwise it would have gotten there first!)

After listening to the radio, Chen Wangping smiled.

Poor little bird, I will bring the golden eagle to see you this afternoon.

Since the wasteland tips say to use a wooden pickaxe to mine magnetite, just go and chop some ironwood.

What a thoughtful tip.

This indescribable hint is a bit confusing.

Exorbitant price? Low price?

Chen Wangping took note of it secretly and ate his breakfast in big mouthfuls.

Half an hour later, the man and the eagle, having eaten and drunk their fill, quickly flew back to the vicinity of Fire Bull City before dawn.

After returning home, Chen Wangping placed Diaobao in place, and then quickly took the kettle to water the land at home.

When he came back, he looked at the terrain around the mine and had not yet found particularly suitable soil to transplant these crops.

Just leave it here for now and explore it later.

After watering, Chen Wangping carried the ore basket on his back and walked straight towards the north gate.

Let’s go mining with Boss Tang!

The North Gate is particularly lively today.

After one night, the news that Guo Qikai and his lackeys were all missing had spread.

In fact, if it was just Guo Qikai, the others would think that they were carrying out a mission.

But when more than a dozen lackeys disappeared, the rest of the people knew something was wrong.

Once this news spread, more and more people wanted to mine blue iron ore.

Now that Guo Qikai is dead, the good days of mining are coming.

Chen Wangping stood in the mining team and heard people around him discussing: "I don't know which kind-hearted person finally took action to kill that bastard."

"Hey, I have inside information. I heard that Guo Qikai offended that person on Red Street. That person was not good in that aspect, and Guo Qikai mocked him, which led to his death."

"That's not right. Why did I hear that it was a murder caused by love turning into hate?"

Chen Wangping: “………..”

The creativity of the people is endless.

If he continued listening, he would start to doubt whether Guo Qikai had died at his hands.

At this time, the inner city guard from the supervisory team picked up the intercom and listened for a while. Then he walked straight towards Chen Wangping and said politely, "Mr. Chen, right? Supervisor Tang invites you to the car for a chat."

As he spoke, the guard's heart was pounding.

His last name is Chen? Who is this person?

Could it be that some big shot in the inner city deliberately wanted to pretend to be a miner to experience life?

Chen Wangping was worried about having to squeeze with others on the bus, but after hearing this, he happily went there.

Parked next to the truck was a high-powered off-road vehicle with a strong wasteland wild style.

Chen Wangping walked to the car, opened the passenger door and sat in.

The other miners in the team couldn't help but look at him with envy as they watched the inner city guards escort Chen Wangping to the driver's seat of the car.

Old Li, who had just squeezed onto the truck, shouted in surprise, "Holy crap! I knew Xiao Chen was special. He actually knows a big shot like Supervisor Tang!"

"He even got a ride in a car. Maybe he's already awakened his special powers and caught the attention of some important person!"

"This kid is amazing!"

Inside the car.

Tang Xihe was sitting in the driver's seat at the moment. Seeing Chen Wangping get in, she took out two meat patties and handed them to him, saying, "Have you eaten yet? Try this?" Chen Wangping nodded and said, "I ate a little before leaving, but it's okay to try it."

After saying that, he took the meat pie curiously, looked at it, and took a bite.

After chewing a few bites, Chen Wangping remained silent.

The meatloaf tasted very forced.

The skin wrapping the meat should be made of a plant powder similar to potatoes, and it tastes a bit hard. The meat inside should be bird meat, which tastes too lean and lacks the aroma of oil. In addition, there are few seasonings, and there is no onion aroma, no meat aroma, and no spicy taste.

As expected, delicious food still has to be made by yourself.

Next to him, Tang Xihe knew from Chen Wangping's expression that he looked down on the meat pie.

The more this happened, the more she looked forward to it.

Since Chen Wangping looks down on this meat pie, he will definitely make a better-tasting meat pie.

Got to create some opportunities.

After finishing a meat pie, Chen Wangping smiled and said, "I'm not hungry now, but I'll pretend and eat when I'm hungry."

Tang Xihe didn't say anything. He took out the map and asked, "Which mine are you going to choose? Have you decided?"

Chen Wangping nodded. "I've made up my mind. I'm going to choose the one next to the Ice and Fire Swamp. It's usually less crowded and quieter."

Tang Xihe pulled the map over and took a look, then asked worriedly, "Are you sure? That mine is too far from Fire Bull City. There must be a lot of alien beasts, maybe even a level three or four alien beast leader. Can you handle it alone?"

"Why not choose the mine closest to Fire Bull City? Once you move in, no one else will dare to break the laws of Fire Bull City and dig there."

Chen Wangping shook his head and said, "I'm sure I'll choose that mine. My current low strength doesn't mean it will always be low. The contract period is ten years, which is enough for me to dig. Don't worry, I won't get myself killed."

Hearing what Chen Wangping said, Tang Xihe nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll send someone to handle the formalities. It should be done after we finish mining. Don't be so stubborn. If you need any help, just tell me. I can pay you back with the mine."

Chen Wangping laughed and said, "What if the mine is mined out?"

Tang Xihe smiled slyly and said, "Then cook for me. Okay, let's go to the mine first."

After saying that, Tang Xihe stepped on the accelerator, the off-road vehicle's engine roared, and it carried the two of them towards the Black Stone Mine slope.

Chen Wangping: “….”

If I really want to cook, how long will it take?

You’d better figure it out yourself.

Arriving at the mine entrance, Tang Xihe parked the car and watched Chen Wangping prepare to carry the basket. He asked, "By the way, what are you going to exchange the ore you dug today for? Silver coins? Or something else?"

Chen Wangping smiled and said, "Anything is fine. What else can you exchange for besides silver coins?"

Tang Xihe asked curiously, "Tell me first, what do you want most?"

Hearing this, Chen Wangping suddenly remembered an indescribable hint.

Asking for an exorbitant price?

Chen Wangping said seriously, "Then what I want most is definitely a space equipment. It's so tiring to carry a mining basket every day. Are you willing to exchange it?"
