Let's Squander A Billion First!-Chapter 1627: Visitors from Beyond (Part 14)
Chuzheng focused on the key point: "Do you have the contact information for Boss Jia?"
No matter where she buys it from, as long as it’s bought, the task is considered completed.
The short-haired girl knew Boss Jia and volunteered to take her there.
Boss Jia was very well-known in District Two... In the normal world, he would probably be the richest person in a city.
Because he had several raw material extraction sites under his control.
In places like District One, the authorities wouldn’t allow individuals to hold such power.
These sites were established when the Underground City was first built, in chaotic times, by Boss Jia’s ancestors and their followers.
They have formed a formidable force; even people from District One don’t dare to offend them too much, so the first batch was tacitly permitted to own extraction rights.
Those resources were scarce, so it was natural to step by step become larger and more influential.
Boss Jia lived in the most luxurious area of District Two, which from the outside seemed to be shimmering.
[Miss, we also need to live in a place like this! Only this matches our status as wealthy people!] The King’s Account cannot stand anyone being more corrupt than it; it must be the most corrupt of all!
Chuzheng: "..."
I don’t want to, thank you.
Don’t give me this persona!
Fortunately, the King’s Account only came out to make such a declaration and did not actually assign a task.
Boss Jia was not home, but the short-haired girl used the car as an excuse to trick Boss Jia’s wife into letting them in.
Boss Jia’s wife was very beautiful, didn’t look very old, but when the short-haired girl chatted with her, she said she was already forty.
Only then did Chuzheng take a closer look, probably because she had a worry-free life, she looked so young.
The artificial sun of the Underground City set, switching to night mode.
Boss Jia returned at this time, carrying a scent of blood.
Chuzheng expected Boss Jia to have the image of a middle-aged man with a beer belly and a bald head, but unexpectedly, Boss Jia looked quite capable, and although middle-aged, he still appeared quite handsome.
When Boss Jia came in, Mrs. Jia greeted him with a surprised look: "Old Jia, what happened to you?"
Boss Jia removed his coat stained with dirty things and didn’t respond to Mrs. Jia. Instead, he asked, "Who are they?"
"Didn’t you order a batch of cars before, they’re here to discuss that." Mrs. Jia was more concerned about Boss Jia’s condition: "Are you hurt, why is there so much blood?"
Boss Jia held Mrs. Jia’s hand: "It’s nothing, don’t worry."
You could tell these two should be very much in love.
"I’ll pick up the cars in a few days, is there a problem?" Boss Jia looked at Chuzheng and the others, his tone carrying an upper-class authority with a faint sense of oppression.
The short-haired girl, who had been chirping away just moments ago, was now silent.
"I want to buy a car from you," Chuzheng cut straight to the point without even a fake courtesy: "The price can be double the original."
Boss Jia’s gaze fell on Chuzheng.
Among these people, this young girl seemed the calmest, and seeing him didn’t provoke any extra emotions—she was clearly the protagonist of the day.
Boss Jia asked Mrs. Jia to get some food out, saying, "Cars are scarce resources now, even money can’t buy one. Why do you think I’d sell to you?"
Chuzheng raised the price: "Triple."
"....."
Isn’t your response a bit off!
Who just raises the price while talking?!
"Little girl, this car is..."
"Quadruple." Anyway, the money belongs to the Bastard, so Chuzheng raised it without any psychological pressure.
Boss Jia: "....."
"We have plans for these cars in a few days, can’t sell them to you." Boss Jia rejected Chuzheng.
"Other cars are fine too." Chuzheng wasn’t picky at all.
Anyway, as long as it was a car, the Bastard hadn’t specified what kind.
One must learn to be flexible!
Boss Jia: "....."
He controlled a lot of resources and information, knowing that recently raw materials were scarce. It was probably because they couldn’t produce new cars over there, hence they came to him.
Boss Jia did have an unused car, however...
Chuzheng pushed the price up to eight times, and Boss Jia had a strange expression but eventually agreed.
He took Chuzheng to see the car—it looked about eighty percent new.
"I haven’t used this car much. Take a look, if you like it, it’s yours."
Whether I like it or not doesn’t matter.
What’s important is to spend the money and get a car.
Chuzheng asked Brother Hui to try it, Brother Hui had a bewildered look: "I don’t know how..."
Chuzheng: "..."
You don’t even know how to drive a car, what do I need you for?
Brother Hui was distressed.
He could drive a boat and fish, but he had only seen cars, never driven one.
"I can, I can." The short-haired girl immediately raised her hand, volunteering: "Shall I help you test it?"
"Alright."
The short-haired girl eagerly went to test the car, which performed well, and the energy source was a specially made silver coin.
This could be bought from the Guard Team, but it was expensive.
However, Boss Jia had some, and Chuzheng directly bought a few from him.
With the car in hand, the King’s Account reminded her that the task was completed, showering her with a pile of silver coins as a reward.
Chuzheng really wanted to kill the Bastard with silver coins.
Leaving Boss Jia’s place, the short-haired girl drove the car for them, with Chuzheng in the passenger seat. There weren’t many routes for this car, but it could go on the hotel road.
So the short-haired girl drove directly to the hotel entrance.
"Do you live here?"
"Mm."
"Great." The short-haired girl’s eyes lit up: "It’s too late today... can I come find you tomorrow?"
Chuzheng didn’t comment, and the short-haired girl assumed she had agreed.
-
Chuzheng didn’t expect to encounter Qing Dai in the hotel lobby.
Qing Dai was with a man dressed to the nines, with people around him saying flattering words—it seemed he was of considerable status.
Chuzheng noticed something strange about the man; he seemed to be controlled by parasites...
Qing Dai obviously saw Chuzheng too. Their gazes clashed in the air; Qing Dai’s beautiful eyes squinted slightly, both dangerous and sinister.
"Miss Qing Dai, this way please."
At this moment, the man made a gesture, inviting Qing Dai inside.
Qing Dai withdrew her gaze and followed the man out.
"Who was that?"
"I’ll find out." Brother Hui was very perceptive.
The man was from District One, a director of some sort, with considerable power, as people in District Two were very respectful to him.
Qing Dai and this man were tangled together, probably planning to go into District One openly through him.
The real decision-makers of the Underground City were all in District One.
Qing Dai couldn’t possibly pass up on them...
When they came over, they didn’t bring many people, so they couldn’t initiate large-scale warfare. Solving it from the inside was the best approach.
Chuzheng clicked her tongue softly.
Lying on the bed for a while, she fished out that ’Locator’.
Originally wanting to see the location of the Good Person Card, she unexpectedly found two red dots on the screen.
One of them was hers...
Who was the other one... Qing Dai?
Chuzheng suddenly had a bold guess—
