Infinite Puzzle City

Chapter 502 Cooperation
The sales of these one thousand masks were enough for Manager Wang to make a great comeback, and even helped his immediate superior, Director Li, to get out of the predicament.

But if that's all, it's not enough.

Manager Wang needs more and greater achievements so that he can have more say.

Besides, this bitch named Mu actually took the risk, so don't blame me for risking my life and making things completely out of control.

Xiao Ran ignored Manager Wang's hint and just moved a chair and sat on it, waiting quietly.

After about a minute or two, Xiao Ran felt a murderous aura coming. A gleam of light flashed in his eyes. He suddenly raised his hand and punched the air in front of him with the Black Tiger Heart-piercing Move.

"boom!!"

Suddenly, there was a dull collision sound in the air, and a vague shadow gradually became clear.

"Invisibility?"

Xiao Ran looked at the gradually clearer shadow with surprise. The other person had a mask on his face, so his features could not be seen clearly. After punching Xiao Ran hard, he immediately stepped back, his eyes full of horror under the mask.

Generally speaking, for the corpse-stitching path, there are two auxiliary professions, either the pharmacist path or the medium path.

These two paths are absolutely a perfect match for the Corpse Stitcher.

In particular, if all three professions can reach D-level and cooperate with each other, they can exert combat power beyond that of ordinary people, and one person can even take on the role of a small team.

It’s just that its own combat effectiveness is relatively low.

That's why Jingzhe wants to go straight in and capture the thief and the leader.

However, he didn't expect that Xiao Ran not only saw through his figure, but also suffered a great loss with one punch. This guy's strength was definitely at least ten points higher than his.

Jingzhe was not a person who would suffer a loss. Seeing that his sneak attack did not give him any advantage, he simply let out a loud roar, and then dazzling flames burst out from his whole body.

A pair of black gloves appeared on his hands, followed by bulging veins on his arms. He kicked his legs, and the floor under his feet exploded. The whole person rushed towards Xiao Ran like a shot arrow.

"Beast Transformation!!"

Xiao Ran recognized the other party's profession at a glance, but did not dodge at all. Instead, he took out the guillotine from the space and swung it up. In an instant, everyone felt a chill all over their bodies, as if their souls were pulled out of their bodies.

With a furious slash, the blade of the Tao came down like lightning.

Jingzhe is fast, but Xiao Ran’s knife is even faster.

There was a loud bang, and everyone felt as if all the bones in their bodies were about to fall apart.

Jingzhe somersaulted in the air and landed steadily on the ground. His body was like that of a silverback gorilla, with silver sparks flashing all over.

Glancing at the knife mark on his wrist, Jingzhe was startled, but he shouted, "It's so good, come again!"

As he said this, he was about to continue.

But at this time Xiao Ran put away the knife.

"Why don't you play anymore? I haven't had enough yet?"

Seeing this, Jingzhe immediately urged Xiao Ran to continue fighting.

These masters usually don't go out. Although they have rich combat experience, they rarely have the opportunity to have a good fight.

It's a rare opportunity to meet an opponent today, and Jingzhe wants to have more fun.

“Awakening!!”

However, a scolding from outside the door interrupted Jingzhe's thoughts. He saw a group of people walking in from outside, two of whom Xiao Ran recognized.

One was Mr. Song, who made the Jiaolong soft armor for him, and the other was Director Li, whom he had met before.

But the two of them were now just standing behind a middle-aged man.

"Chief!"

Seeing the middle-aged man, Jingzhe immediately ended his beastly state and straightened his body naturally.

"Don't call me Chief in Donglongfang."

The middle-aged man patted Jingzhe on the shoulder, signaling him to relax, and then looked around.

Xiao Ran also took advantage of the gap to call back Sanli and Liumu. He patted the [Yin Bing Gourd] on his waist and put them all into the space, including the butcher standing behind Xiao Ran.

"Boss!"

At this time, Manager Wang came over, explained the matter in a low voice, and picked up the [Hercules Mask] beside him and handed it to the middle-aged man.

"Manager Mu, please take your people down first."

Looking at the [Hercules Mask] in his hand, the middle-aged man still had a lukewarm expression on his face. He didn't even mention the fact that Manager Mu had forcibly interfered with the transaction. He just asked the person to go down first.

"Yes!"

Although she didn't blame anyone, Manager Mu's face was already terribly pale. She knew that she was finished, completely finished.

Only after Manager Mu and his men left did the boss extend his hand to Xiao Ran: "Mr. Xiao, I am one of the persons in charge of Donglongfang. My last name is Cao, Cao Yuanzhang."

"Hello, Mr. Cao."

Xiao Ran stretched out his hand and shook hands with Mr. Cao in front of him. The other's hand gave people a sense of calmness and stability. For some reason, Xiao Ran felt a strong sense of strangeness in his heart. This feeling was like the suppression of the lower by the superior, but it was not deliberately expressed, nor was it directed at himself, but was an innate aura of Mr. Cao.

In a trance, Xiao Ran seemed to be standing behind President Cao with an aura as huge as a mountain, hidden and silent, like a giant.

"nation!"

After a brief moment of daze, Xiao Ran suddenly understood in his heart that behind this President Cao was the position of the country, and the aura of the country was suppressing him.

"Let's go talk somewhere else. This place is messy and not a good place to talk."

Mr. Cao said with a smile.

"it is good."

Xiao Ran nodded and walked out of the meeting room with General Manager Cao. Before leaving the door, Xiao Ran noticed Manager Wang standing behind him without moving, so he paused and said to Manager Wang, "Manager Wang, come along, we have something else to talk about later."

All of a sudden, everyone looked at Manager Wang, which also scared him.

Normally, since Mr. Cao had come forward, what happened next would have nothing to do with him. But now Xiao Ran's words made Manager Wang the focus of everyone's attention. Manager Wang instantly felt pressured and stood there looking uneasy.

Fortunately, Director Li stepped forward and said with a smile: "Old Wang, let me handle the matters here. Just serve Mr. Xiao well."

"Oh, good."

Manager Wang nodded repeatedly, looked at his boss with gratitude, and followed Xiao Ran and General Manager Cao.

After the group left, Director Li looked at the mess on the ground in front of him and sighed with satisfaction: "Luck is really... mysterious!"

In Mr. Cao’s senior meeting room.

One hundred and fourteen thousand paper money for the dead were piled into six boxes and placed on the table.

These are the remaining balance from Xiao Ran's purchase of one thousand [Hercules Masks].

Together with the 60,000 yuan deposit given to Xiao Ran in advance, the total amount is 200,000 yuan.

Having such a large sum of money in your pocket always makes you feel at ease.

"These things have been studied by several masters of Donglongfang for a while. We are in great need of these masks now. I just heard from Manager Wang that you still have the intention to cooperate, or is it still this mask?"

Mr. Cao looked at the Hercules mask at hand and asked Xiao Ran.

Donglongfang is a place that specializes in making cursed objects. Donglongfang is eager to recruit craftsmen like Old Song, but even Old Song cannot make something like the [Hercules Mask].

In the words of Mr. Song, he had never seen the material of this thing and didn't know where it was produced. Without the raw materials, there was naturally no way to imitate it.

"There is an intention for this cooperation, but not for this mask."

Xiao Ran carefully considered his next words.

Be it Manager Wang or Mr. Cao, neither of them is easy to deal with. Xiao Ran wants to cooperate with Donglongfang, but he also has to be wary of the other party taking the opportunity to swallow him up.

President Cao looked at Xiao Ran calmly, waiting for Xiao Ran to speak further.

After a while, Xiao Ran continued, "In addition to masks, I have many special things to sell, and I have exclusive purchasing resources. This is something that no one else can do except me. I don't plan to open a store on Guling Street, so the business on Guling Street can be entrusted to Donglongfang. I will only charge the cost price."

Upon hearing this, Mr. Cao couldn't help but narrow his eyes and look at Xiao Ran.

“What’s the cost price?”

"One thousand Zhang Lishi masks only cost 5 ghost money."

"hiss!!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Manager Wang and Mr. Song, who were sitting nearby, all gasped.

My goodness, this is simply violent, a four-fold difference, and for the same one thousand masks, Xiao Ran had previously offered a price of two hundred thousand.

Mr. Cao also showed a strange look on his face and looked at Xiao Ran meaningfully.

Xiao Ran's words not only showed the profit, but also his sincerity. The four-fold difference was a huge profit for Donglongfang both internally and externally.

But it was precisely such a huge profit concession that made Mr. Cao realize that Xiao Ran was not simple.

"Donglongfang has taken such a big advantage, what price will it have to pay?"

"Mr. Cao, you are too kind. There is no so-called price, only mutual benefit. I can give Donglongfang exclusive authorization for some of the products, and only allow Donglongfang to sell them. The market, including my store, will no longer sell these products. What I want is a long-term cooperation. Of course, in this cooperation, I need Donglongfang to carry out a higher level of development of the location of my store."

From beginning to end, Xiao Ran never mentioned any area where he needed Donglongfang's help. Even until the very end, he hoped that Donglongfang would work with him to develop the maze city and showed his utmost sincerity.

But Mr. Cao is not a fool. He knew Xiao Ran’s plan when he heard this. Rather than developing together, it is better to say that he is binding himself to Donglongfang.

After all, the channel is in Xiao Ran's hands. What can we develop together? ?
But Mr. Cao was still very curious, so he asked, "Since you said you wanted to develop it together, and your store is not on Guling Street, do you mean that you have occupied a maze city by yourself?"

"No, that maze city is too big for me to take over by myself, and now there is only one Ruzhou territory left."

"A Ruzhou?"

"Correct."

Xiao Ran nodded, and then threw out his biggest bargaining chip: "A clean Ruzhou with no evil spirits, no evil cults, and no difference from the normal world, and with a large number of people. This mysterious city will be open soon..."
