88: Almost got fooled

“Selling supplies, top-tier supplies from the restricted zone!”

Xiao Yun immediately stopped when he reached a stall.

All the items displayed at this stall were supplies brought out from the restricted zone.

Merit Medals, Gold Cups, Gold Coins...

There was even a long row of military telescopes, which Xiao Yun happened to need!

“Boss, how much is this military telescope?”

Seeing this row of military telescopes, Xiao Yun felt a surge of excitement.

If the price was right, Xiao Yun would buy sixteen of them directly!

“Eight hundred thousand each.”

Damn!

He had heard that the black market was shady, but he didn't expect it to be this shady!

This boss was selling a military telescope for 800,000, when it was worth less than 100,000!

He truly didn't know what it meant to be a black hand!

This was clearly taking advantage of ordinary people's ignorance of prices, treating customers like pigs to be slaughtered!

“Eight hundred thousand, are you kidding?”

“Then how much do you say?”

The boss was very straightforward and didn't argue at all.

Only then did Xiao Yun understand why one had to haggle for half the price.

But even if you haggled for half the price for a military telescope worth 800,000, wouldn't you still be losing a lot?

“Eighty thousand.”

“Holy cow! Eighty thousand! Are you kidding me! It sells for more than eighty thousand at the Exchange.”

“You started the joke.”

Xiao Yun looked at the boss's exaggerated expression, unsure if it was acting or genuine.

“This thing sells for at most 100,000 at the Exchange, and you have to pay a 15% tax. How about this, eighty-five thousand, and you can still make a little profit.”

“Alright, alright, eighty-five thousand it is, really, young man.”

The boss waved his hand helplessly and then showed the QR code for payment hanging around his neck.

Seeing this, Xiao Yun was truly enlightened.

The black market was too deep!

Just now it was 800,000, and now it was cut down to almost a tenth!

If someone who didn't know came here, wouldn't they be scammed badly?

Moreover, if Xiao Yun remembered correctly, the average price of this military telescope should be around 95,000, with a difference of no more than two hundred.

Including the 15% tax at the Exchange, it would only sell for a little over 80,000.

This boss made a profit of five thousand yuan in one go and still acted like he was losing money.

He was too good at acting!

However, there was nothing he could do; the tax at the Exchange was indeed a bit outrageous.

Even if Xiao Yun went to the Exchange in a big city to buy it, it would cost 95,000 each, not including round-trip airfare and travel expenses.

Therefore, he could accept the price of 85,000.

“Hey, hey, hey! Don't touch it!”

Xiao Yun was about to pick up the military telescope to examine it, but the boss quickly grabbed his hand, not allowing him to touch it.

“Pay first, then take the goods. That's our rule here.”

“The black market has rules?”

“Of course it does! Don't break the rules.”

The boss said very seriously.

However.

Looking at his flustered expression, Xiao Yun frowned.

Was he flustered because he was afraid of damage to the goods, or was there something else?

Could there be something wrong with this military telescope?

Xiao Yun glanced at it, and with suspicion, he indeed found a problem!

Why didn't the system panel appear when he aimed at the military telescope?

Damn! This was a fake!

Xiao Yun's face immediately darkened. He hadn't expected the black market's tricks to be so deep.

None of the golden supplies on the ground had a system panel pop up!

In other words.

None of these seemingly glittering golden supplies were real!

“Damn, what a waste of time!”

Xiao Yun cursed the boss as an idiot and quickly turned to other stalls.

......

“I didn't expect it to take a whole morning to collect 16 military telescopes.”

Coming out of the third floor, Xiao Yun sighed.

It was already almost one in the afternoon.

Having collected 16 military telescopes, it was finally enough to upgrade the military dagger.

This thing was harder to find than a movie!

Although many were sold at stalls, most of them were fakes at a glance.

At first, Xiao Yun would haggle, but later he lost patience. He bought them all at an average price of almost 94,000 each, close to the Exchange's selling price, for a total of 1.5 million.

Fortunately, the money earned from running the knife all night yesterday was a lot. After this wave of spending, his balance was still a healthy 7.5 million.

“Xiao Yun, why are you buying so many military telescopes?”

Coming out of the black market, Liu Shihhan was also very confused.

“You're not going to use them to peek at the neighbors taking a bath, are you?!”

“Do you think I'm a pervert?”

Xiao Yun was speechless.

How could such vulgar words come out of Miss Liu's fragrant lips?

And he seemed to feel that Liu Shihhan, having been with him for so long, had even started to develop a personality similar to his own?

He didn't understand her.

“Do you have anything to do this afternoon?”

“I actually do.”

Liu Shihhan looked at her phone, seemingly checking the time.

“I have a fashion shoot this afternoon, and it's almost time to get ready to go.”

Hearing this, Xiao Yun nodded silently.

He hadn't expected Liu Shihhan to truly be a model.

“Hehe, when you're running the knife alone, don't miss me too much~”

Before parting, Liu Shihhan stood on the departing yacht and said with a giggle.

“I'll be happy when you're gone; one less person to share supplies with.”

Xiao Yun whispered, but Liu Shihhan still heard him.

“Hey! You dare to be happy when I'm gone?! Besides, how much can your backpack hold! Don't be so ridiculous!”

“Alright, alright, you go quickly.”

Xiao Yun waved his hand.

Seeing this, Liu Shihhan also held back her anger, gritting her silver teeth as she got on the yacht.

“Oh, right, the leaders of the Haibei Academy of Sciences should be coming to visit you the day after tomorrow.”

Liu Shihhan suddenly stood up again and reminded him.

“Got it.”

Xiao Yun nodded silently.

Since the leaders of the Academy of Sciences were coming, they probably intended to understand his situation.

At that time, they might even bring a group of people whom Xiao Yun normally wouldn't be able to contact, to show him concern.

After all, someone like him, who could bring out big red supplies from the restricted zone, should be the first case in Haibei City.

Although Xiao Yun didn't intentionally think this way, the Academy of Sciences might already be in an uproar internally.

“Oh, right!”

Liu Shihhan had just pulled her head back in, then stood up again.

“Remember to send me Li Wenzhe's video later. Although the information isn't enough, it can serve as some evidence.”

“Okay, I'll send it to you right away.”

Xiao Yun waved his hand, then opened his phone to operate it.

And Liu Shihhan also pulled back into the yacht, preparing to have the captain start the boat.

“Hey! Oh, right, one more thing!”

“Are you ever going to finish?!”

Xiao Yun immediately clenched his fists.

Could Liu Shihhan not just say everything at once if she had something to say?

“It's really the last thing, Xue Qing asked us to have dinner at her place tonight, so don't forget.”

“Okay, anything else? If you stick your head out again, I'm really going to hit you.”

“Hmph, even if I do, would you dare to hit me?”

“Captain, start the boat quickly!”

“Hey, hey, hey!”

At Xiao Yun's command, the driver drove the yacht away without looking back.

Apparently, he was also a bit annoyed by Liu Shihhan.

......

“You have entered Longbow Creek Valley!”

“Current location: South of Diamond Queen Hotel.”

“Current drop rate: Normal”

“Current game end time: 28 minutes 53 seconds”

“Hint: Please complete evacuation before time runs out!”

Xiao Yun entered the Longbow Creek Valley map nearby.

After all, the entrance to the restricted zone in the valley was on the Ocean Spectrum ship.

At the same time, the new task issued by the system was to evacuate from this map three times.

“Oh, right, I should upgrade the dagger first.”

Thinking of this, Xiao Yun's mind moved.

The military dagger immediately appeared in his hand.
