Chapter 388

Joson sneezed. He rubbed his nose red by the cold wind.

It's eight o'clock in the morning. Although it's already bright, the weather is not warm because of the arrival of the day in the cold winter season. Sunshine is the product of the old era, but in the new era, people can only enjoy the sky light diffused to the earth from the thick radiation cloud.

Looking around, there is a vast white world outside pavaric. Radiation clouds accumulated on the road, turning the whole land into a snow field. The branches and leaves of those abnormally tall Chinese fir trees have been stripped off, leaving only a yellowish brown skin. Without branches and leaves, Chinese fir does not have to bear the heavy pressure of radiation snow. Its nearly kilometer long fibrous roots allow them to draw water from some flowing groundwater deep underground, waiting for the opportunity to grow branches and leaves in the coming spring.

Looking at the almost boundless silver frost forest outside pavarich Town, Joson couldn't help shivering. Under the quiet forest on the surface, if someone digs the ground, he will find that there is a country full of roots. In that country, you will see mountains of bones. After all, plants in the new era no longer live solely on sunshine, rain and dew. They have become some bloodthirsty beings.

So Joson was glad to live in pavarich, although it was a place where birds didn't shit, even though he had to stand guard in the sentry tower before five o'clock every day. But at least in this small town, Joson has a job and can support his wife and children. With the efforts of mayor Mensa and several big people, pavaric's life is getting better and better day by day.

In addition to the huge benefits generated by the fur income of the town every year by the hunter union under Chairman Fred, it is also because pavarich has an important customer. Joson couldn't help looking at the dense forest in the southwest of the town, where a group of magical lives lived. They built magnificent underground cities and controlled an oil well that seemed to have no limit.

Oil!

One of the most lacking things in the new era is that the aliens living underground use this fuel called "black gold" to barter with pavaric. This business alone will benefit the whole town, young and old. Naturally, most of the benefits are in the hands of big people. Small people like Joson only get some dividends every year. But that's the dividend. It's worth Joson's three-month salary!

In this cruel age, there is bread to eat and clean water to drink every day. When you are sick, a doctor can ask. Joson believes that for many people, pavaric is already heaven.

It was so cold that Joson rubbed his red hands. He felt an itch on the back of his hand and couldn't help scratching it with his fingers. On the back of Joson's hand, there is a layer of flesh cocoon that is not too thick. The meat cocoons are spirally shaped, with dark red silk threads passing through the meat cocoons like capillaries. Looking at the cocoon, Joson thought he had to go to the hospital sometime.

This is a "skin disease" that almost every ordinary person living in surface towns will suffer from. The existence of mutated tissue will make people like Joson stand the radiation of the earth's surface, but they are double-sided blades. In addition to improving the radiation resistance of ordinary people, they will also try their best to absorb the vitality of ordinary people, so as to make them live shorter than those who live in underground cities and have good environmental protection.

Fortunately, the only small hospital in pavarichiri is qualified for excision of mutated tissue. It's just that there is no way to eradicate it completely. The residents of the town have to undergo such surgery almost every three years to slightly prolong their life.

While wondering whether his savings would be enough to pay for a resection, Joson suddenly heard the sound of the car engine. He looked at the snow field outside the town in some surprise. At first, it was just a black spot, but a moment later. A modified Jeep smashes the snow on the ground through the snow drainage system and sprays it from both sides, so that it can drive out of the silver frost forest and come straight towards pavaric.

There seems to be a cargo bucket behind the jeep, which is covered with waterproof cloth. I don't know what it is.

But after the initial surprise passed, Joson regained his composure. He couldn't see anything suspicious except the car. He thought it should be an adventurous businessman, although adventurous businessmen rarely haunt this season. But there are also some desperate guys who risk their lives to cross the wilderness and start profiteering when roads are closed in winter and prices rise.

Pavarich meets two or three people like this every winter. Usually, I seldom see those adventurous faces the next year. The wilderness is not safe, especially in winter. In the environment where the road is difficult to pass, it is difficult to get rescue in case of distress. However, this is also the reason why adventurous businessmen make huge profits.

After all, profit is always with risk.

I know, but Joson faithfully performs his duty as a goalkeeper. He first informed the guard with a walkie talkie to keep the soldiers of the urban defense team on guard. Then he took up an old-fashioned firearm and rifle, pointed it at the approaching vehicle under the sentry tower, and shouted, "Hey, stop, man!"

After shouting three times, the car stopped in the snow hundreds of meters away from the entrance. The door of the jeep opened and a man jumped out of the car. From the perspective of body shape, it should be a man with a high body size, but the body shape is not very strong, but it feels a little delicate. The man wrapped himself in a hooded cloak to keep his temperature.

He held out his hand under his cloak and opened his hood to reveal an Asian face. From the appearance, the man is very young and has very handsome facial features, which makes people feel good at first sight. But his right eye was covered with an eye mask. Somehow, it made Joson uncomfortable.

The young man said in a quiet voice, "Hello, we are adventurous businessmen from the far south. I heard that the fur here is of high quality, so I want to buy some. Moreover, we have brought some goods, which you should be interested in."

Joson nodded and introduced himself in the middle of the scale. It was nothing special. He pointed the barrel of the gun at the cargo bucket and said, "Sir, please uncover the waterproof cloth on your cargo bucket and accept the inspection of our guards."

"No problem." the man was very cooperative. He waved to the car, and two more figures jumped down.

Physically, it should be a man and a woman. Although she couldn't see her face because of her hat, the occasional figure curve revealed from the fluttering of the woman's cloak made Joson's throat dry.

At this time, the alloy gate of the town was separated from both sides with the help of hydraulic machines. Four or five guards quickly ran out of the town and jumped onto the cargo bucket for inspection. A moment later, a guard called to Joson on the sentry tower, "no problem. It's mostly food and two boxes of rifles. It's wrapped in waterproof cloth and looks like first-class goods."

After the guard jumped out of the car, the young man shook hands with him, as if saying thank you for letting him go. Joson smiled and put away his rifle. If the guard is lucky, he may get a tip if he meets a generous businessman. Of course, city guards like them usually divide things equally even if they get tips from generous businessmen.

Joson stopped taking charge of the affairs under the city and told the gate to let him go. He didn't know that the guard did get a tip, and it was a lot.

The guard felt something hard against his palm. When the young adventurous businessman withdrew his hand, he found that there was a small piece of yellow gold in his palm. There was a burst of joy in his heart. This small piece of gold was almost equal to his income for half a year. When he was happy, he heard the young businessman say in a gentle voice, "I don't know which shop in the town has the best reputation. You see, we have a lot of business to do. We must find a reliable business to cooperate."

The guard secretly hid the gold, nodded and said, "when it comes to credibility, we naturally have to find an owl firm. Their boss is the chairman of the chamber of Commerce in our town. There must be no credibility."

The young businessman said again, "would you please tell me where this firm is?"

The guard took advantage of others. Seeing that the young man was very polite, he was very fond of him. He patted his chest and said, "well, I'll take you there."

"That would be great," the young man said with a smile.

When the guard left, the young man and two other companions got on the bus again. On the back seat of the carriage, there was a petite girl. A total of four people drove into pavaric with the Guard opening the way. These people, of course, are zero, belien, Su and a night Ryu. As early as last night, the linkage motorcade of the three giants of asgat reached the other side of the silver frost forest. At the moment, it is a cold winter, the road is closed by heavy snow, and there are no pavaric villagers at all. Even the hunters in the town are at rest at this time, so the team is not afraid to be found by the people in the town.

This morning, Beyonce provided a false identity for zero people to enter pavaric, pretending to be an adventure businessman. In order to gain pavaric's trust, the food and even guns on the bucket were really purchased from some factories on the southern coastline. Even if the pavarich chamber of Commerce conducted a strict investigation on these goods, it would only find that they came from the south.

For Beyonce's carefulness, zero naturally has nothing to say. In the early morning, when it was light, he and belline crossed the edge of the silver frost forest to the town. Now, they have driven into the town, which is half the success of the plan.

On the bus, Su said, "the captain looks like a businessman."

Belien, sitting in the back seat, said, "there is no such a young adventurous businessman. If it were me, I would have to catch an old man to dress up."

Zero said with a smile, "the old man is always cautious. How many people dare to come here through the wilderness at this time. Only Lai birds who look like I have just entered the industry will come all the way. Moreover, as long as they are profitable, businessmen will not care whether their partners are young people or old people."

Talking and laughing, the car drove through the gate. The guard who received zero benefits didn't break his promise. He drove a motorcycle to lead the way and led a few people behind him. It's getting late. Pedestrians began to walk around the town, and the shops on the street opened one by one. The town is becoming more and more vibrant.

Zero drive is driving on the main road of the town. The residents of the town are curious about their early morning visitors and cast all kinds of meaningful eyes on their vehicles. Occasionally, when the tarpaulin of the cargo bucket is lifted by the wind to expose the box loaded with guns, residents will make a small commotion. Although the town's economy is good, the transactions are mainly fur and unknown "black gold".

Guns are undoubtedly another hard currency besides black gold. Limited by the backward level of science and technology and production capacity, pavaric has no such products as Arsenal. The guns used by hunters and urban defense guards are also purchased from other places, which lags behind a lot in performance. Therefore, compared with other commodities, guns are more favored by businessmen in pavaric.

Among them, several businessmen were very interested in these two boxes of guns. When they saw zero vehicles parked in front of the owl shop, these businessmen had to die. The owner of the owl business is Sharon, the chairman of the town chamber of Commerce. The profiteer will certainly not let go of commodities with great interests such as guns. If Sharon did it, they ordinary businessmen wouldn't have a hand in it.

"Here we are." the guard jumped off the motorcycle, said to zero, and shouted at the shop that had opened for guests: "old rob, don't get out quickly. There are big customers coming."

Zero let belien three people stay in the car, and he jumped out of the car. At this time, I saw a thin old man slowly coming out of the shop. The old man first stared at the guard and said, "I'm not afraid of making noise in the early morning. The boy of the octa family hasn't seen him for a few days. He hasn't made progress. His voice is much louder."

The guard laughed, pointed to the old man and said to him, "Sir, old rob is the director of the owl firm. You can find him if you have any business. I'll bring you the place, then I'll walk. A lot of work is waiting for me to do."

"Thank you, and may the Almighty God bless you, sir," zero said with a cross on his chest.

Before coming here, Beyonce told him that adventure businessmen usually have to travel through dangerous wilderness, so they believe in the existence of gods more than anyone. So if zero can add some elements in this aspect to the conversation, it will make his identity look more credible.

Sure enough, after zero said this, the old man lost a bit of mistrust in his eyes.

"This guest, since you were brought by the boy of the octa family, come in. I don't know what business you want to do?" the old man waved to zero and went into the store first.

Zero looked at several people on the car. The other three, including Yelu, got out of the car and walked into the store with zero. Old rob took them to a quiet room, sat down, took out the goods list prepared earlier in the morning, handed it to the old man and said, "these are the goods we brought. They are all top-grade goods produced by the South factory. I think pavaric will need them."

The old man took it and looked at it. The list listed a series of different canned food and some artificially nutritious fruits, which were also rare in pavarich. But what really moved old rob was the two boxes of sophisticated firearms and rifles. Although they were imitation of the guns of the old times, they were much better than the old guns pavarich bought from elsewhere. Moreover, they were accompanied by a considerable number of ammunition. Few businessmen would not be moved to see them here.

Old rob seemed unmoved and said faintly, "since you can find our owl firm, I will naturally give you a good price for these goods. Wait, our valuer hasn't worked yet, or are you interested in visiting our town?"

"No, in fact, when we came here this time, we wanted to resell some special commodities in your town." zero showed a deep smile.

Old rob lowered his head, looked at zero with his muddy eyes and said, "please be clear. We have a lot of special goods, and fur is one of them."

"It's more valuable than fur. I want to buy some black gold," zero said.

Old rob "Oh" said, "guest, you are well-informed, but black gold is not more than ordinary fur. We charge cash."

"I know that," zero gestured to belline, who threw him a backpack. Zero opened the leeward, hung upside down, and immediately fell out of the backpack.

Old Rob's eyes were dazzled by the gold immediately. He rubbed his eyes, picked up a gold bar from the ground with no less agility than the young man, put it in his mouth and said in surprise, "good guy, good purity."

"The old man knows the goods very well. I don't know how much black gold these gold bars can buy you?"

Old rob made a gesture, asked the change to put away the gold bar, and then said, "you want more than I can decide. I have to inform my master that he should be interested in talking about this business with you. Please wait here for a moment, and I'll come."

After that, old rob was dismissed.

Bellion wanted to say something, but zero shook his head gently, so he swallowed his words back to his stomach and waited quietly with the rest in the small room. Without letting the odd people wait too long, old rob opened the door, waved to the odd people and said, "come with me, my old father, Lord Sharon, wants to see you."

Sharon stretched out and struggled to get up from the big bed covered with wool grass. He looked at several jade bodies lying on the bed and laughed complacently. He is no longer young, but his energy has not degenerated at all, but is more vigorous than ever. Last night, he fought with these three beautiful young women almost all night. They played a lot of tricks and didn't sleep until early in the morning.

According to Sharon's habit, she had such a carnival last night. She had to sleep all day today anyway. But just now old rob, the manager of the firm, called and said that an adventurous businessman was coming to buy black gold with a whole backpack of gold bars. This is a big business. Therefore, no matter how unwilling Sharon was, she could only leave this warm big bed for the time being.

However, pavaric's black gold trading has always been secret, and the source of tourists is fixed, and there are few new faces. Especially according to old Rob's description, these adventurous businessmen are very young. Of course, only young people dare to make money this season, just like Sharon. However, he is no longer young, and time has given him mature and thoughtful thinking.

Sharon thought about it and asked old rob to bring the guests to his apartment. At the same time, he transferred his own guard. He wants to find out the details of these people. If he has bad intentions, it's not a big deal to kill someone in pavaric.

Sharon smiled, stretched out her big hand and grabbed one of the white buttocks before she was satisfied to leave.
