After seeing off Zhou Shen, who had successfully assumed the role of Deputy Director of the Events Bureau, Chen Miao sat in the cemetery and waited a while before Hungry Monkey and the others got up and finished washing up.
Today, they were going to the city to fence some goods.
They planned to convert all the items that weren't needed for the big event into cash. Only Hungry Monkey would accompany him, the others wouldn't come along. Yuan Buping was still engrossed in his study of the Tower Defense Buildings, which seemed to be quite complex. The rest had already started to swing their tools, ready to dig.
The ground heating pipeline project had already begun.
As the weather cooled down, Yuan Buping had already started preparing the heating for each tomb chamber and grave—no need to bother the municipal government at all. How considerate.
...
Fengtian City, Seventh District.
The same familiar shop, "Haina Supernatural Store."
This time, when they saw Chen Miao and his group from a distance, the store owner came up to greet them with a big smile plastered across his face, endlessly complimenting with both awe and admiration, "Miao, I watched the live stream of the big event from start to finish. In one word, awesome!"
"That firepower was fierce. It even left me speechless. You might not believe it, Miao, but right after the big event ended, a bunch of young folks started coming here to buy items like 'Fox-Tail Grass,' all gearing up to become Gunslinger Transcendents."
"Even many well-known Gunslinger Transcendents in Fengtian City have publicly stated that their firepower is no match for yours, Miao."
"Miao, you've truly made a name for yourself in Fengtian City!"
For those in their line of work, it was mandatory to pay attention to every big event, as it determined what goods they could lay their hands on in the coming period. The output from big events typically accounted for one-fifth of their supply channels; the percentage wasn't high, but it included many high-quality goods.
And practically all the loot from this big event had fallen into Chen Miao's hands.

There were certainly items that Chen Miao wouldn't need, and when it came time to unload his goods, he would surely look to them since they'd already had several cooperative dealings. It was always better to work with someone familiar than a stranger. However, Miao hadn't shown up yesterday, so the shop owner thought something might have gone wrong.
Now, it seemed he was just a bit late.
"Heh heh."
Chen Miao leaned on his cane and chuckled without saying much, only softly stating, "Let's go. Let's talk in your store. I've got some things to sell."
...
Once the owner saw that several of his usually on good terms colleagues had agreed, he finally let out a sigh of relief. The value of this cargo was incredibly high, and it was too much for him to handle alone and too conspicuous.
If he attracted too much jealousy from his peers, his life would be filled with obstacles.
In this line of work, even a coordinated attack from peers wouldn't cause a business collapse, but it would be very annoying.
Sharing a bit of the profit would allow those few to help him share the limelight, and as they were all on the same side, the value they brought would be more significant than earning that extra bit of credit. Moreover, considering Miao's performance, it was likely that as long as Miao could participate in big events in the future, the rewards would probably all go to him.
The owner thought it was time to consider opening a bigger store, just to make sure he could accommodate all the goods that Miao might bring.
...
The trade was completed quickly.
Chen Miao left Haina Supernatural Store satisfied, carrying 17 million credit points and 20,000 Star Coins. This deal was the biggest he had made since coming to this world.
Just those Hidden Job Transfer Books brought him a total of 9 million credit points.
One must admit, hidden occupations were really expensive. A set of houses in Fengtian City cost around 2 million credit points, and one Hidden Job Transfer Book alone was around seven to eight hundred thousand points—and they were hard to come by.
Ordinary people would have no chance of ever coming into contact with a hidden occupation in their lifetime.
Meanwhile, the owner of Haina Supernatural Store couldn't close his smiling lips, having taken in 9 million worth of goods. Scoring a big deal, these goods were all in high demand. If he sat on them for a couple of months, he could make at least 15 million back.
That would be a clear profit of 6 million.
Forget about opening another Supernatural Store, he could consider upgrading to a large flat. Life was getting better and better, and he admired his own wise initial decision to let Chen Miao benefit from the relationship.
He deserved this money.
"By the way, Miao,"
As they were about to part ways, the owner of Haina Supernatural Store suddenly remembered and said, "There's a Gunslinger auction in the city today with lots of Gunslinger-specific items and Skill Books being auctioned off. I heard there's even a 'Hell Gatling' blueprint. Want to check it out, Miao?"
"Hmm."
Chen Miao nodded, already aware of the event from Zhou Shen: "I know about it, and I plan to take a look."
After saying this, he waved his hand and left the Seventh District.
