Star of Civilization

Vol 2 Chapter 36: City of Tomorrow (2)

So outrageous, so hilarious!

I didn't expect that he made up a lie casually, and this guy can still pick up on it, it's incredible.

But she thought about it, the other party said so, there must be some ulterior reason. If you are unfamiliar with this place, you might as well play a trick and take this opportunity to listen to the other party.

Joyner secretly decided that since the other party likes acting so much, then it will be good for him. So she replied somewhat ambiguously, "But, this is different from the order I got. Brother Hui told me that I must be sent to the city, not to those who came halfway..."

The bald brother's expression froze, and he pretended to be calm and said, "Oh, of course you don't know the truth, this kind of thing may involve the relationship between several parties, it's very delicate, how could Lai Touhui tell you so clearly? !"

How many parties are involved? What does it mean?

Joyna's expression changed slightly, and then she had an idea, looked at the other party with a puzzled expression, and said, "But, then... how do you prove that you are the person to answer?"

"Prove...?" The bald brother was stunned.

"Yeah, I have to make a difference, right?"

Joyna is smart and intelligent, and she has been trained in negotiation. She is one of the best in the past.

In fact, the other party is also making things up. Of course, she knows it, and she has already thought about the countermeasures. If you don't ask some difficult questions, it seems that the other party will not reveal the truth easily.

The bald-headed brother was anxious, but he didn't want Joina to be suspicious, so after thinking about it for a while, he prepared some rhetoric to fish in troubled waters.

He said with a stern face, and asked tentatively, "To tell you the truth, the situation in the hidden sand castle is actually very sensitive. You should know the two factions of Xuanming and Ming... Well, they don't really deal with each other, right?"

There was something in the bald brother's words, and Joyna moved in her heart. Did the Xuanming and Ming factions have a festival?

"Well--"

She didn't say a word, and she didn't see any waves in her expression.

But the heart is already clear: it turns out that in addition to the Quicksand Gang in the hidden sand castle, there are two factions of Xuanming who are competing with each other, which is a very important situation.

Seeing this, the bald-headed brother continued, "I don't know if Ahui has told you, he and I have a deadly friendship. He sent tributes because of that flattery... People. This is a nomination certificate, do you understand now?"

The bald-headed brother was not ashamed, and blurted out the lie, as if Ah Hui begged him to do something, and the two lips opened and closed, which is completely nonsense.

"Oh?"

Joyna couldn't help but want to laugh, she tilted her head and thought, "So that's what happened, no wonder he didn't tell me the reason."

"Of course, this kind of thing can't be said nonsense."

The bald-headed brother was complacent, and even before Joyna could speak, he immediately greeted the younger brothers to continue to move the vat.

"Hey, wait a minute—!"

"Why, what else do you have a problem with?" The bald brother frowned.

"Brother Hui said that once these things are delivered to the place, there must be a delivery certificate to prove that I have finished the work, otherwise I will not be able to explain it later."

"Uh, certificate? What certificate do you want?" The bald head was a little blinded, and she rolled her eyes at Joyna.

"Of course it's money, or other valuable things." Joyna made a gesture, resisting the snicker in her heart, and a lion opened her mouth and said, "Brother Hui especially told me that this If you want to do things without anyone noticing, you have to be like a normal business, so that you can hide from the public and be invisible.”

"You mean...you want money?"

Joyna nodded and said, "Yeah, since it's a business, it has to look like a business. Valuable things can be counted as vouchers. You have to give some points."

"Oh--"

The bald-headed brother "gudu", swallowed, and immediately believed what Joyna said. Since the other party agreed to give the goods, the bald head also knew that he had no valid reason to refuse, so he could only endure it and silently accepted the conditions proposed by Joyna.

But he was still muttering in his heart, when did this Lai Touhui become so shrewd?

It's just too rigorous, too reliable!

"Then... is ten hidden sand coins enough?"

Ten hidden sand coins?

Joyna didn't know how much ten hidden sand coins were worth, but looking at the bald face with a wretched face, she understood that it should be far more than this number. So she pretended to hesitate and said nothing.

"Uh, you know, those of us border guards are not rich, anyway, it is a certificate. Forget it, let's add five more, fifteen hidden sand coins, okay?"

In fact, the bald brother thought, even if these snake meat were sold on the black market, it would be worth two or three hundred at least. After getting these good things, half of them are sold and half of them are donated to them. If they are not good, they can go straight to the top and even become a centurion.

At that time, even if you win while lying down, you will win. This is the highlight moment of turning a small win into a big win. Guys like Lai Touhui should go back to the wilderness. How could such a fat poor lose himself?

"Okay." Joyna nodded awkwardly.

"That's good! We're done," the bald-headed brother said with joy in his heart, "But the money, I don't have it now."

This is the truth, he has no money now, and if he has money, he will not do this drudgery.

"Why, you have no money now...?"

Joyna's face sank again, and she said reluctantly, "This is not easy to do, and I can't give you the things in the car now."

The bald-headed brother nodded and said, "That's natural. Let's do this first. Let's go to the Hidden Sand Castle and talk about it. You can just come with me."

He was thinking in his heart, and when he got there, he would gather his brothers to find a way to make this guy disappear completely. And then even if this is done, it will be unknowingly. Lai Touhui or something, don't even try to get any benefit.

In fact, Joyner was waiting for those words.

"Okay, I agree."

She readily agreed~www.wuxiaspot.com~ did not expect this matter to end in this way.

With just one glance, Joyner knew what trick was going on in the other's mind. But after all, following the bald-headed group of people is equivalent to getting the privilege of entering and leaving the hidden sand castle freely, and you can find other information about this human settlement on the way, why not do it?

The engine roared, the truck started again, and the bright headlights illuminated the road down the mountain.

In order to show his sincerity, the bald head also came to the truck to drive for Joyna in person. Joyna thought about it, not only could she ask the other party more things along the way, but also save other guards' investigation, and she readily agreed.

The guards' vehicles clear the way ahead, just like the escorting convoy, heading straight for the hidden sand castle.

The scenery along the way was about what Joyner had estimated.

Hanged people and huge stakes on which their bodies were hung were everywhere. The skeletons swayed in the wind, like the desolate wilderness swept away by death and disease in the Middle Ages.

Joyner, however, was already numb to the sights.
