[Subject: According to internal information, this Chiba country banquet invited a player]

Under the Durian Tree: The landlord is an ordinary resident who buys a house in Chiba. This time, Qianye Lan did not dare to participate in the rebellion, for fear of being raided by the Qianye King, so she was fortunate enough to see the subsequent development.

Hearing from the big man who lives near the palace, this time King Chiba held a banquet as soon as he finished the rebellion, and it was the highest level for entertaining VIP guests. Tonic. Who do you think needs this thing the most in the whole continent? Of course it's us players!

What does this mean? This rebellion ended so quickly, there must be a mysterious boss hidden in it!

888L. Ah Ye passed by with a confused look on his face:

What the hell! I also vote for this big guy. The big guy is too awesome, just brush Chiba Blue, this is what a macho should look like! ! !

Mysterious gangster Xiao Zhi who can play Chiba Blue alone: ​​"..."

Although you guessed the answer correctly, the process is completely different from what you thought.

Some people seem to be big bosses, but in fact their grades are still a little short of the pass line for the general public. Stop dreaming.

At this time, the bell of the arrival station in the airship rang.

Xiao Zhi looked out and saw a beautiful seaside city in front of him. All the buildings were intertwined with white and blue. Bathed in the bright sunlight, they looked light and simple.

This is the capital of the Dolly Alliance, Hylaris, and the most developed city in trade on the entire Dazemenia continent.

Because the country of Chiba borders the Dolly Alliance, in order to save the transmission fee, Xiao Zhi took the airship and headed here. There is no way, although King Chiba is rich and gives experience and room, but he did not give him money, so from the book, he is still very poor.

I thought I could swipe the forum to increase my understanding of this place, but I accidentally ate my own melon along the way.

After getting off the airship, Xiao Zhi followed the directions on the map and walked towards Xinghai Street.

There are a large number of auction houses gathered here, and auctions are held almost every day. Many auction houses provide anonymous transaction methods, which is very suitable for Xiao Zhi to sell things in his backpack.

In his backpack, there are many things that were common at the time but are now difficult to obtain, and some have even become out-of-print items.

Xiao Zhi didn't intend to sell those too rare materials, but only wanted to sell some materials with a high price increase, which would not attract attention and was enough to keep him out of the economic crisis.

Suddenly, there was a man in front of Xiao Zhi.

The man was gorgeous, with long sea-blue hair and blue eyes. From the outside, he was a standard Xiyue clan.

He was wearing a blue robe made of veil, embellished with strings of pearls and shells, and looked elegant and agile. The Xiyue people come from the ocean, and even on land, they still like decorations with marine elements.

This Xiyue Clan had a proper smile on his face, and bowed slightly towards Xiao Zhi.

The Xiyue Clan is indeed a race that is rich in beauties, and this person's appearance and temperament are pleasing to the eye.

But Xiao Zhi was wary.

As we all know, the Xiyue people are called "beautiful profiteers" on the mainland. Therefore, there is a saying among players "Don't underestimate any Xiyue clan", because they will deceive your big pants if you are not careful. It can be said that as long as you dare to believe their nonsense, they dare to let you go bankrupt.

In the face of the treacherous mainland native races, sometimes players are really a bunch of stupid white sweets.

There was once a player who was young and ignorant and went offline on the streets of Hilaris. With good luck, he was only left with a pair of big pants, and with bad luck, he was left with a mosaic. In addition, the glorious deed of selling off-line players to the Black Mine is also a masterpiece of the Xiyue Clan.

Many players have expressed their gratitude to the Xiyue Clan for curing my face control.

But now, a Xiyue clan was standing in front of Xiao Zhi and smiled at him. This made Xiao Zhi feel cold on his body, and he couldn't help but want to reach out to make sure that his panties were still there.

"Hello, my name is Teague." The Xiyue Clan spoke to him in a soft and gentle tone, with a hint of caring, like... a salesman who sells health care products to the elderly.

"It's like this, I found a special mineral in the depths of Hesse, and it happened that I had a channel to sell them to a bishop of the Bresse Empire. You also know that Breesse and Hesse have always had a tense relationship, and there is no such thing as Direct trade links, so scalping like this can be very rewarding.”

"Now I need help from investors and I can guarantee you will get a 40% return on your investment in three months."

He bowed to Xiao Zhi again: "I wonder if you would like to be my investor?"

Xiao Zhi: "..."

It always feels familiar...

Suddenly he thought, isn't this the famous "Ponzi scheme"? !

The operation mode of this kind of scam is to promise high remuneration first, then pay subsequent investors’ money as profit to previous investors, and then use the word of mouth of previous investors to attract more investors. Repair the western wall. Later, it also evolved into a well-known - pyramid scheme.

Sure enough, all the beauties of the Xiyue clan went to commit fraud.

Unexpectedly, in the independent world of ZERO, which is separated from human civilization, such an excellent deception was still born.

Xiao Zhi said decisively, "No thanks, I'm not interested in investing."

Teague's smile was still the same, and there was no displeasure at being rejected. He immediately changed his words: "It doesn't matter, if you don't like investing, I can also provide you with great job opportunities here and help you accumulate wealth."

Xiao Zhi's heart did not fluctuate: "..."

For example, go to the black mine to mine?

Teague seemed to have read something from his silence. He leaned closer to Xiao Zhi and said softly, "If you don't want ordinary jobs, I also know a lot of noble ladies. They live very lonely lives and like handsome men very much. Young people accompany them for entertainment, and gentle types like you are very popular with them."

Xiao Zhi couldn't help but widen his eyes: "..."

Does this mean that you want to persuade him to go to sea? ! !

As expected, the Xiyue Clan was thinking of the player's big pants in every way.

Teague winked at him: "Of course, they are all very generous, allowing you to accumulate assets at a very fast speed, you only need to pay me 50% of the agency fee. , Human race ladies, orc race ladies, wood spirit race ladies, and even the undead race, I can introduce them to you."

He also added: "If you prefer the nobleman, I can arrange it for you..."

Unexpectedly, this Mr. Teague looks gentle and gentle, but the road is wide and wild! The Xiyue Clan really lived up to their reputation, and there was no lower limit for profiteers.

"No no no no no..." Xiao Zhi, who didn't want to become a stumbled youth, fled.

The Xiyue Clan is really scary, but it's not arrogant.

Teague, who was left in place, still smiled: "Goodbye then, sir."

After avoiding the danger of slipping, Xiao Zhi continued to walk in the direction of Xinghai Street.

As a city famous for its trade, Hilaris is naturally very prosperous. Promotional activities of various merchants can be seen everywhere on the streets, as well as lively casinos, orcs’ arenas, and wood spirits’ medicine stores and flower shops.

Almost everywhere, you can see the dancers of the Xiyue Clan performing on the streets. Although there are many profiteers in the Xiyue Clan, people passing by are still happy to reward them when they see such a light dancing beauty.

Many players also choose to open stores here, selling everything from medicines to equipment, from magic items to food stalls, which are quite rich.

to Xinghai Street.

There are auction houses on both sides of the road, and countless people come and go here, looking prosperous.

Xiao Zhi had checked the information before, and chose an auction house with a good reputation among players - the Red Moon Club, which also purchased various items in addition to auctions.

As soon as you entered the door, a waiter came up to say hello: "Hello sir, may I do anything for you?"

Xiao Zhi: "I want to give some materials. I heard that you can provide anonymous channels here, right?"

The waiter nodded, pointed his finger in a direction and whispered, "Yes, if you want to trade anonymously, please go this way, we will keep your information completely confidential."

Following the waiter's guidance, Xiao Zhi came to a separate room, where an old gentleman was already waiting for him. The old gentleman is a personal family, wearing the uniform of an appraiser, his hair is neatly combed, and he looks very professional.

Seeing Xiao Zhi come in, the old gentleman nodded politely to him: "Hello, my name is Kohler, what kind of material do you want to shoot?"

Xiao Zhi took out a few pieces of gray ores from his backpack and placed them opposite Mr. Kohler.

Mr. Kohler took it and put an identification technique on it. After a while, he said with a smile: "Well, Su Yin ore, a very good armor material, contains very few impurities. Now Su Yin ore of this quality is rare."

Mr. Kohler looked at Xiao Zhi: "According to the purchase price on the market, these are worth a total of 700,000 gold shells. Because the quality of the Suyin ore you provided is excellent, the price will increase by 10%, which is 770,000 gold shells. You how about?"

Xiao Zhi nodded and expressed his satisfaction. The price was even higher than what he had checked on the player forum.

The transaction went smoothly, Mr. Kohler got up and left for a while, and soon he sent over 770,000 Kimbes. During the whole process, Mr. Kohler did not intend to inquire about Xiao Zhi's personal information.

Xiao Zhi put Jinbei into the game backpack. Facing this magic trick, Mr. Kohler said he was very calm. After all, people on the mainland know that the Asanaxi people have their own storage space, which has become a sign of them like immortality.

When he was about to leave, Mr. Kohler smiled and said to Xiao Zhi, "Tomorrow, Hilaris will hold the biggest annual Xinghai auction. It will be very lively by then. You can visit if you are interested."

Xiao Zhi used to be addicted to chopping cubs and never participated in the auction. He was a little curious: "What will it be like?"

Mr. Kohler smiled: "There are all kinds of treasures on the continent and secret treasures from various countries. Things that can be bought with money are not eligible to appear in the Xinghai auction. If you want to find things that have disappeared , this is the most suitable place in the whole continent."

Xiao Zhi's heart moved slightly when he heard "something that has already disappeared".

Mr. Kohler: "If you have something you want to sell but are afraid of causing trouble, Xinghai Auction is a good choice."

Xiao Zhi asked, "How can I participate in the auction?"

Mr. Kohler said: "If you want to participate, you only need an invitation letter. You are my guest, and I can give you a copy here. However, if you want to provide auction items, you need a sufficient referrer. About this One point, I can't help you."

Finally, Xiao Zhi left the Red Moon Society with an invitation letter to the Xinghai auction.

Now Xiao Zhi has finally escaped the abyss of poverty. He bought some living materials and food reserves on Xinghai Street, and helped Qianye Wu to sweep a large number of famous teachers' textbooks, while thinking about the auction.

The biggest auction in the whole continent, of course, is a good time for him to sell out-of-print items, but... where should the referrer go? He didn't know anyone in Hilaris, and he was also worried about his big pants by a liar.

Before he knew it, Xiao Zhi had wandered into a remote street.

Different from the gorgeous and lively Xinghai Street, it looks depressed and desolate, and the people around are obviously shabby. From time to time, malicious eyes could be seen swept across his body, and those eyes were as if he was looking at how many gold shells he could sell, which was very uncomfortable.

Xiao Zhi understood that he might have accidentally walked into the unsightly areas behind the prosperity.

He decisively stopped and prepared to leave here.

At this moment, a man groaned not far away, accompanied by the sound of punching and kicking. The sound of fists and feet hitting people is extremely heavy, and it has the posture of killing people.

The people around didn't say anything about it, as if they couldn't hear it, they just went about their business on their own.

Xiao Zhi took a few steps forward and carefully glanced at the hidden corner where the voice came from, and found that a tall and strong masked orc was beating a person wearing Xiyue clan costumes.

The people on the ground were almost powerless to resist, but the orc did not stop. He even grabbed the hair of the man on the ground and slammed it against the wall. The Xiyue Clan is famous for their beauty and treacherousness, and their combat effectiveness in close combat is almost negligible. If this is true, the Xiyue Clan will surely die.

Xiao Zhi thought for a second. Although the Xiyue Clan had a bad reputation, he really couldn't see a Xiyue Clan being beaten to death in front of him like this.

The next moment, three closely linked fireballs attacked the arm of the orc.

In order to avoid the attack, the orcs could not help but let go of the hand that grabbed the hair of the Xiyue tribe. He glanced at Xiao Zhi, the icy beast's eyes glowed dangerously, just when Xiao Zhi thought he was going to attack him, the orc took a few steps back and disappeared into the corner.

After confirming that the other party would not return, Xiao Zhi stepped forward to check the situation of the Xiyue Clan on the ground.

The man's long blue hair was scattered, and he looked a little embarrassed with a lot of smudges, but he was still breathing, and he looked like he would not die for a while.

Xiao Zhi asked, "Are you okay?"

"Cough cough..." The man coughed a few times with difficulty, then turned his head to thank Xiao Zhi: "Thank you for your help, first..."

The moment the man turned his head, the two were stunned at the same time.

Because that face Xiao Zhi was quite familiar, he had only seen it not long ago, this man not only wanted to cheat him of money, but also wanted to arrange for him to go to sea - it was Teague.

Teague also froze, but the strong heart that he had cultivated through years of fraud still allowed him to speak. He smiled reluctantly: "What a coincidence, sir..."

Xiao Zhi: "..."

What's with the urge to make up for it?

Teague seemed to sense the vague killing intent in the air. With his survival instinct, he said, "Is there anything I can do for you?"

Anyway, after saving everything, Xiao Zhi couldn't do anything about it. He asked, "What happened to that person just now?"

Teague wiped the blood on his lips and sat up reluctantly: "He should be a killer, probably from a previous investor... sent..."

The more he talked, the quieter he felt, and he felt a little guilty. The person in front of him seemed to be an investor he once cared about.

Xiao Zhi couldn't help but clenched his staff tightly, otherwise he should call back the orc killer just now, and tell him that I won't bother you if you continue.

Teague hurried to remedy: "Cough, I will definitely repay your kindness. I really have a wide range of contacts in Hilaris, and I can help you with anything you want. If you are worried, I can give you my companion Xiyue Pearl."

After he finished speaking, he drew a magic circle on his chest, and then a sea-blue bead emerged from his chest. Teague took the bead and handed it to Xiao Zhi.

Xiao Zhi reached out and took it.

Teague explained: "The Xiyue Pearl is the most important thing to our Xiyue Clan. You can fully grasp my"

"Hmm—" Teague didn't finish his words, and suddenly cried out in pain, clutching his chest and falling down.

Xiao Zhi let go of the beads in his hand: "Sorry, I just wanted to see if you were lying to me."

Teague said weakly: "Can I trouble you to be gentle... If the Xiyuezhu shatters, I will really die..."

Only then did Xiao Zhi seriously consider his words. If he has a wide network of contacts... Can he help him find a referral?
