Hell Game: Starting from Metropolis

He drawled out his words.

Chapter 149 Helping Britain Get a Mourning Set Back

"want!"

The ox and horse immediately lowered their rear ends and nudged themselves next to Liu Zheng.

"One million in cash, and here's your 100,000."

Liu Zheng placed the money he had packed in front of the oxen and horses.

"We also have various miscellaneous items that we expect to sell for two million. After deducting a 10% commission, and a B-level tomb-sweeping package for 100,000, we'll have 1.7 million left."

"I'll tell you the exact amount after the goods are converted into cash."

Whether the cattle and horses were interested in listening or not, he briefly recounted the process of seizing the inheritance.

"With this little money, I can barely buy some snacks to go with my drinks."

Niu Ma said with an arrogant look, then happily put away his money bag.

"By the way, Red Pig asked me to do something."

Liu Zheng said this while it was having a good time.

Sure enough, the oxen and horses immediately stopped laughing.

"what's up?"

It asked the question knowing the answer already.

He wanted to know the whereabouts of his wife, Chihaya.

Liu Zheng said.

What reward did he give you?

"His sunglasses."

He took out his aviator sunglasses.

"He is still so passionate about flying."

The cow and horse opened their mouths and spat out a tattered pair of sunglasses.

"When I arrived at the place where he was shot down, he had already been taken away by the city hall people, and only this was left at the scene."

“I knew from the beginning that he wouldn’t succeed, but I didn’t try to persuade him because it was useless, just like I didn’t try to persuade Black Claw.”

The cow and horse put on sunglasses on their noses.

“I used the money left by Red Pig to pull some strings and met with Chihaya. She begged me to rescue Red Pig.”

“I told her it was impossible; at most, I could leave him with a whole body.”

The cattle and horses tilted their heads back, letting their sunglasses slide down onto their eyes.

"Then Qian died long ago, right in front of me. He died so cleanly, not even a trace could be found, and the police couldn't keep an eye on him."

The rest is history.

Since Chihaya is dead, then Ushima can only save Porco Rosso.

"Are you afraid that if he loses his obsession, he'll be consumed by his own spirit?"

Liu Zheng said.

"Yes."

The oxen and horses nodded gently.

"But have you ever considered that continuing to exist like this will only cause him more pain?"

"I know, but I need his presence."

"It's like an ox or a horse," the ox said coldly.

"Can I tell him the truth?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"No, otherwise I will definitely kill you. Or, you can kill me."

The tattered sunglasses couldn't hide his bell-like eyes, but there were no tears in them, only determination.

"Boss, you're joking. We're brothers, why talk about fighting and killing?"

He patted the cows and horses on the shoulder affectionately.

"Hypocritical humans."

The cattle and horses gave him a disdainful look and lay back down on the haystack.

"Don't rush to advance the release date, I still have questions to ask."

Liu Zheng hurriedly said.

"Spit it out. Who's responsible for delaying my efforts to conceive?"

"The ox and horse said impatiently."

He felt that the level of education of cattle and horses was somewhat strange.

"I want to get two cosplay outfits, do you have any connections?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"Two cosplay outfits? Do you think I own the restaurant, or the customer service department?"

The ox and horse stared wide-eyed.

"One of those things is enough to buy you a scalped ticket."

"It's so expensive, I don't think it's worth that much."

he wondered.

"You could say the market price isn't worth that much, but the problem is that it's in short supply. Only the customer service department can manufacture these things, and they're only available in limited quantities."

"Even those members of parliament have to reserve at least a month in advance, otherwise they won't be sold to anyone,"

"The ox and horse said."

"understood."

He'd seen plenty of scarcity marketing in the real world.

Of course, it's also possible that cosplay costumes are indeed difficult to make and can only be supplied in limited quantities.

"Then don't we have any internal pricing or anything like that?"

Liu Zheng asked, unwilling to give up.

"You're a food delivery guy, so it's understandable that you'd freeload in the kitchen. But you want to buy a cosplay outfit and get an insider's price? What makes you think you deserve that?"

The ox and horse rolled their eyes.

Humans just don't know their own limitations; they want to have all the good things in the world by themselves.

"I'm not doing this for enjoyment. The sewers blacklisted me, and the fisherman asked me to wear a cosplay outfit down there and help clean the sewers so they could remove me from the blacklist."

Liu Zheng explained.

"Wasn't that all for your own sake?"

"Not entirely. What if someone orders takeout down in the sewer? If you go out and I can't go down, wouldn't that interfere with my work?"

He argued.

"If someone orders takeout, it's because you instigated it."

Niu Ma mercilessly exposed his lies.

"Besides, it's no use telling me this. My relationship with Britain isn't as good as yours. It definitely knows about something like a cosplay outfit."

Even if Britain doesn't explicitly agree, it must at least tacitly approve; otherwise, no one would dare sell to Liu Zheng.

As for the option of having the horses steal it, Liu Zheng wouldn't even mention it without the horses refusing.

"What about the eldest brother?"

he asked.

"You mean Ottawa? I'm not as familiar with it as you think. Besides, even if it were, it wouldn't be able to cross Britain to help you."

"But you can ask, just in case you're still not convinced."

After Niu Ma finished speaking, he called Da Bai'e.

"Brother, are you busy? It's alright, it's just that my little brother has something he'd like to ask you. Would you mind taking a moment to listen?"

After the call was connected, it said with a smile.

The way she spoke was so tactful that it gave Liu Zheng goosebumps.

"Here you go, but be more polite."

Niu Ma handed the phone to Liu Zheng.

"I heard from Niu Ma that you have something to ask me?"

The voice of the white goose still sounds as kind and gentle as ever.

"Yes, Big Brother."

Liu Zhengzhong shouted with great enthusiasm.

"No need to be so alert on the phone. So, what's up?"

The white goose seemed startled.

"I want to buy two cosplay outfits."

He spoke in a normal volume.

"What's it for?"

"The sewers have blacklisted me, so I'm going to have to rely on my cosplay outfit to get away with it."

Liu Zheng spoke the truth.

"Cosplay outfits can't fool someone at the level of a 'sewer' character."

The big white goose shook its head.

"Someone will help me."

"Who?"

"Fisherman".

The big white goose asked a rather profound question, but he could only tell him the truth.

"So it was that person. He really does have that kind of ability."

The big white goose nodded.

"Does the older brother know him?"

"I not only know him, but I've also bought fish from him. His fish are big and fat, and they're not greasy at all. Every time I come back from buying fish, I ask to clean the fish; the scraps are even tastier than the staff meals."

The big white goose couldn't help but drool.

"It's a pity that I haven't had the chance to enjoy such a feast since I was transferred to the customer service department."

Its tone was full of regret.

Although the customer service department also gets some leftovers, nothing compares to eating fresh, first-hand food in the kitchen.

"Then, shall I go down into the sewers and get some fresh fish for Big Brother to try?"

If Liu Zheng still couldn't understand this, then he wouldn't have survived until now.

"I only want the ones from the fish farm."

"It is guaranteed to be from the fish farm, and it must be the fattest and tenderest fish."
