Chapter 757: Chapter 757: Trading Scene

Kou Ning took another bite of meat, looked at Han Yue, and replied, "I’m not talking nonsense, unless you can also get me such delicious meat."

"Sorry for the spectacle, everyone. This is Kou Ning, who has always preferred meat. It’s just that we haven’t taught him well. I will discipline him more strictly from now on."

Han Yue felt that it was now impossible to reason with Kou Ning here; it was better to stabilize him and then properly educate him when they got back.

"Young Master Han, it would be best if this could be settled privately. I still hope you can manage your subordinates well,"

Wan Anran said.

Kou Ning was clearly a dangerous individual who didn’t regard human life at all. Although they hardly dared to offend the Han Family now, they couldn’t just let others run wild on their own turf without restraint.

"Brother Wan is right. I will restrain him properly;. But for now, could we start purchasing supplies? Delaying other customers isn’t ideal,"

Han Yue said with a smile. Actually, Wan Anran’s presence here didn’t really affect their purchase of supplies. It was just that he didn’t want the other party to stay here, especially since he hadn’t officially greeted the Dragon Ruler yet.

"Certainly, we protect all customer’s privacy. Brother Han, please feel free. The guards of our base are right outside the door; if you need anything, you can call us at any time,"

Though Wan Anran’s reply was polite, it was also full of warning. On the other hand, he was also hoping that Long Aotian and his party could feel secure and need not fear these people.

"Brother Wan really is considerate,"

Han Yue remarked. He could tell that this F City base was very protective of Dragon Ruler.

After Wan Anran left, Han Yue began to introduce himself.

"Hello, I am Long Aotian of Dragon Ruler. May I know what supplies this guest would like to purchase?"

Lin Xiuyuan replied with a beaming smile.

"Brother Long seems to be quite eager. Shall we become friends first?"

"Hahaha, to be upfront, too many people want to be friends with us, but no matter how you want to be our friend, you’ll still have to pay for the Crystal Core,"

Lin Xiuyuan said in a manner suggesting that he suspected the other party wanted to purchase supplies without spending money.

"Of course. I wonder if I wanted to buy supplies worth 10 million Crystal Core, would Brother Long have them here?"

Han Yue observed Lin Xiuyuan’s expression closely, hoping to detect some clues.

Lin Xiuyuan was indeed startled, but he feigned a worried expression and responded, "Brother Han, you really think too highly of our small team. We can’t procure supplies worth 10 million Crystal Core. We’re just small-scale traders. Honestly, a team like the one just now that bought supplies worth thirty or forty thousand Crystal Core is already considered a big client for us; 10 million..."

million was surely tempting, but only a fool would claim they had that much stock, right?

Moreover, if the Han Family got their hands on that much supply, they surely wouldn’t be up to any good. He wasn’t about to shoot himself in the foot.

The family behind him also breathed a sigh of relief internally. They were truly worried that Lin Xiuyuan might agree to it right away; thankfully, he wasn’t that foolish.

"I see, I understand. After all, Crystal Core has a price, supplies don’t, right? What I mean is, if your team finds more supplies in the future, could you consider selling to me first? A one-time transaction would surely be much better than selling bit by bit here, wouldn’t it?"

Han Yue tentatively asked.

"How can you say such things, Brother Han?!"

Lin Xiuyuan feigned anger and asked loudly, even Kou Ning, who was still stuffing his face with meat, glanced over.

"Does Dragon Ruler collect resources from various places just because of the Crystal Core? We do it for all of humanity, for our Huaxia! Look how many people outside are still starving, can you really bear to cut off their means of survival for your own selfish desires? People like you, who are so selfish, truly chill me to the bone!"

Lin Xiuyuan said righteously, his words also carrying genuine contempt for the Han Family, who he thought were indeed selfish.

"Well said! What we do is charity work, even the gods bless us, we should never engage in the deceitful tricks of those swindlers,"

Lin Yunguo cheered from the side. Being from an older generation, he had wholly bought into Lin Xiuyuan’s rhetoric, feeling that their family represented the side of justice.

"Well said!"

Carnivore Kou Ning, standing beside Lin Yunguo, echoed him. By now, he had been completely won over by the allure of the meat, so regardless of what Lin Yunguo said, he felt he should support him unconditionally.

"..."

Wang Liang glanced at Han Yue’s surprised face, probably the first time Han Yue had encountered such a "saintly" individual, leaving him also momentarily stunned.

His own folks from Dragon Ruler joining in was one thing, but what in the world was Kou Ning echoing?

"Ahem, our companion here tends to be quite idealistic, I hope you won’t take it the wrong way. But we indeed do not have as much as 10 million units of Crystal Core in goods, the remaining supplies may last only a few days, and that’s still uncertain,"

Su Xiangzhe stepped forward and said, not because he wanted to let Han Yue off the hook, but because he wanted to urge Han Yue to hurry up, as lingering here would delay their chance to sell resources.

After all, there were many others still waiting in line!

"I never expected Brother Long to be such a visionary. It was presumptuous of me, I only thought about saving everyone some time, and didn’t consider much else,"

Han Yue felt that Long Aotian must be foolish. What kind of time was this for such words to be spoken? However, he could only find his own way to back down.

"If this customer doesn’t mind, we can handle transactions involving up to 80,000 Crystal Core worth of goods. We do this only to ensure fairness for those waiting in line, and we hope you understand,"

Lu Hao said.

80,000 Crystal Core...

Han Yue’s lips twitched. He didn’t know how much goods those who returned to the base had bought here, as everyone treated their goods as more precious than their own lives, maintaining a tight watch over the quantity of goods in the team.

But if this round trip could only secure goods worth 80,000 Crystal Core, that was too little... even though buying goods wasn’t his main purpose.

By now, people outside had become impatient, urging louder, sounding like the survivors waiting in line.

"Aren’t the people inside done yet? We’re still waiting here, hurry up, will you!"

"Yes, please show some civic sense, you’ve been inside for almost an hour already!"

"I bet they’re not good people. Didn’t a man covered in blood just get carried out? That definitely wasn’t something people from Dragon Ruler did,"

"Oh! Then, could the folks from Dragon Ruler be in danger?"

"Possibly, it’s been so long without a peep from them, could they have been robbed by those guys?"

"..."

The outside chatter gradually turned into loud knocking, many were concerned about the safety of those from Dragon Ruler, fearing that something might have happened to them.

"Long Aotian, Chen Daming, are you guys alright? If you’re there, make some noise!"
