Chapter 126: The Pinnacle of Carving Art
Qu Fei hesitated for a moment and asked tentatively, "Breaking the deal means you will come and kill me yourself?"
At this moment, he had already put away his previous fake expression and was vaguely a little excited.
Wen Zhi said calmly: "No need."
These words have confirmed her guess that this place does not do ordinary business.
Qu Fei clenched her fists, but ultimately didn't dare to gamble, "Okay, but I can't control what other people in the team think."
Wen Zhi just said something ambiguous, "They will agree."
Shen You watched quietly from the side until Wen Zhi turned around and looked at her, "I'm going out for a while."
She nodded, and the two of them left the shop one after the other.
Shen You was on the terrace. Apart from the alien figure he saw at the beginning, he saw nothing else in the surveillance footage.
Nearly an hour passed before Wen Zhi came back. The matter was settled. The red mark left on the back of his hand after wiping it did not look like alien blood.
"how's it going?"
"Two people died, and the remaining ones are very willing to abide by the deal." When Wen Zhi said this, the corners of his mouth were raised, and there seemed to be flowing light in his eyes.
It’s about seven or eight kilometers away from the shop.
The two men were very arrogant at first, holding guns and asking, "Are you teaching us how to do things? Where is the shop?"
Seeing that Wen Zhi was alone and didn't have any powerful weapons in his hands, they didn't take the transaction seriously at all.
And no special species were seen.
Most of the rest, including Qu Fei, didn't say anything, as they wanted them to give it a try.
The two men were about to take action, but the next second, an alien tentacle jumped out from the darkness and pierced them directly.
Logically speaking, with their skills, they would not be killed instantly without any chance of fighting back, as they would be able to dodge a few times.
But at that moment, it was as if he was possessed by a ghost. His eyes were wide open and he clearly wanted to resist, but he watched the alien kill him without being able to move.
By the time I reacted, it was too late.
The person standing in front was still walking slowly, without even raising his eyes, just staring intently at the sword in his hand.
"Didn't you say you would guarantee our safety? How could you watch them?" A companion who was on good terms with the two men accused them.
He just wiped the warm blood off his hands and said impatiently,
"Do you think I'm bored and came out to save you for free, as a charity? I said I'd pay you back with my life, why don't you believe me?"
Listening to his nonchalant voice, he looked at the two bodies next to him, which were dripping with blood.
And the alien species with a huge body and a partial exoskeleton directly sucked the flesh and blood of the two men.
Everyone was terrified and almost knelt down to beg him, saying that they were willing to abide by the deal.
Wen Zhi briefly explained what happened, and his dark eyes carefully observed Shen You's expression, "Do you think I went too far?"
He had fought in the battlefield in Da Qi and his hands were of course stained with blood, but this time, he was worried that she, who was used to the rules of peace and prosperity, would feel bad.
He didn't know why he would care about her opinion.
"What's the problem with a transaction that we both agree on?"
Shen You was not thinking about this, "What token did you ask them for?"
"Alien species." Wen Zhi spread his hands.
"???" Shen You was surprised, "Is this possible?"
"Just a joke. The weight of this kind of transaction is too small. It doesn't matter if there is no token." Wen Zhi saw that she really believed it and laughed softly.
Looking up and seeing Shen You gritting his teeth, he immediately explained in a serious tone: "The old emperor of Da Qi is different. He is an emperor and his relationship is related to the destiny of the country, so the token of trust cannot be an ordinary thing." "I see." Shen You nodded.
After watching Wen Zhi leave, she closed the shop door, took out her cell phone and processed the messages.
The things the shelter wanted this time were not ordinary items. She did not send them directly to the contact person at the foreign trade company, but first gave the order to her own person, Shang Pei, the president of the foreign trade company.
Ten minutes ago, the message was replied.
The mechanical parts on the list are not easy to buy, but the merchant has many companies under his name, so you can find a way to buy them through formal channels.
But time is not so fast. Some things have to be ordered from manufacturers before they can be purchased, especially the parts for large-scale circulating water treatment system equipment. There are not many factories that can produce them.
These are not big problems, there are just one or two items in the list that I couldn't find the corresponding models for.
I asked some people and they said they had never heard of it, but the corresponding equipment does exist, and I need to compare and find the applicable parts.
Shang Pei didn't ask why the equipment matched. The models in the list she provided were neither heard of nor found on the market.
Just told Shen You the results very efficiently.
He knew that Wen Zhi's identity was unusual, and he thought it was normal for Shen You to have some unusual behavior.
"My special assistant will send you the specific procurement cycle within two days." This is the message just sent.
“Okay, thank you. I’ll purchase it as soon as possible. It doesn’t matter if it’s a little more expensive.” Shen You replied.
She can wait, but the people at the shelter may not be able to.
Human life is at stake. If something happens to a big customer, the deal cannot be completed.
Deducting her shop's experience points is a small matter. However, without the shelter as a trading channel in Lancheng, her business will not be easy to do.
Both publicly and privately, Shen You didn't want anything to go wrong there, so it was okay to spend a little more money.
The next batch of supplies will arrive tomorrow evening.
Shen You calculated the time well, and would be able to catch up when he returned from finishing work in the studio.
The studio is not busy at this stage, and the work at hand may seem boring to outsiders, but I just need to focus on the restoration without being distracted.
Not long after the car arrived home, the delivery man also arrived.
Seeing what has been going on these days, the neighbors around have all been saying that Shen You is good at doing business. He built a garage, parked the car outside, and then rented the garage to others at a low price as a temporary warehouse.
Some people were not happy with this and thought that Shen You shouldn't park his car outside and take up other people's space.
But she parked in front of her own store and didn't block anyone else. People who didn't like her couldn't say anything and could only say a few words behind her back.
A batch of easy-to-preserve vegetables, such as cabbage, also arrived today.
As long as you don’t peel off the outer layer and the environment is right, you can store it for a while.
These vegetables are ordered from farmers who grow their own vegetables. Shen You doesn't bargain for prices like those middlemen who buy vegetables wholesale, so the sellers are very happy.
She also has dehydrated vegetables, but they are still different from fresh ones.
By noon the next day, the team transporting supplies to the shelter had not yet arrived.
Another group of people arrived first. It was Quan Jian, whom I had met a few days ago. Also coming in were Fang Qi and two of his team members.
It seems that they have successfully reunited.
Quan Jian was carrying a waterproof travel bag in his hand, and his belongings were well protected.
Shen You's eyes widened when he looked at the thing he took out.
That is a Qing Dynasty carved ivory ball!
This thing requires the finest craftsmanship and requires two or three generations of top craftsmen to carve it, but the technique has now been lost.
There are some in museums today, but there are very few known ones with such exquisite craftsmanship. There is also one from the Qing Dynasty in a foreign museum.
