Wang Zhaofu: "That’s a bit of a stretch. The Descending Demon Baby is no ordinary Level Five Ruined Beast. Even if you manage to get an Information Flow Interference Bomb, I’m afraid it won’t help much. If you’re dood, you won’t escape. I’d rather you stay away from that damned Bone Valley, even if it ans not buying the interference bomb this ti."
Ren Zhong: "What, you don’t want to make money?"
Wang Zhaofu stroked his goatee, "I’m a businessman; I make money wherever I can. But Mr. Ren, you’re a rising star and a major client, and I haven’t made enough money from you yet. I’d really hate for you to die for nothing."
Ren Zhong smiled, "Boss Wang, do I look like a fool to you?"
"Not at all."
"Then do you think I’m the kind of person who would die for nothing?"
"Also not at all."
"Then that’s settled."
Wang Zhaofu nodded, "You’re right. Let’s do a hand-to-hand transaction. We’ll head to the parking lot. Once you’ve checked the goods, transfer the money to in person, and the car keys are yours."
Splat.
Ren Zhong directly raised his hand and transferred the money to him.
His balance instantly dropped from 44,703.94 points to 2,148.94 points.
In just a flash, he spent 42,555 points.
Wang Zhaofu was slightly taken aback upon hearing his wrist watch’s transaction notification, "A transaction over 40,000 points, and you don’t even check the goods? Aren’t you afraid the Qingfeng Heavy Truck is an empty shell? Or that these keys are fake? That I’ll run off with the money?"
Ren Zhong shook his head, "Even though this is only our second eting, I felt a connection with you from the first ti. I trust you’re an honest and reputable businessman. Checking the goods would only hurt our connection."
Wang Zhaofu was stunned.
He had traveled far and wide, doing business for over ten years, eting thousands of buyers, but he had never encountered soone like this.
Wang Zhaofu still rembered how harshly Ren Zhong haggled when he bought the Thunderbolt Car, each cut to the jugular, leaving him utterly defeated.
The guy even showed a victorious smile back then.
Everything proved that the other party was a cunning and treacherous peer.
He never expected that during their second encounter, the other party would suddenly change styles.
That level of trust was like they were brothers from different mothers.
"Boss Wang, what’s wrong?"
Ren Zhong saw him freeze for too long and showed concern.
"Nothing... nothing. Mr. Ren, you’re truly a remarkable person. No wonder you’ve beco a formidable force in town in just over a month. I, Wang Zhaofu, am impressed. eting you is my good fortune."
Ren Zhong laughed heartily, raising his fruit wine glass, "I think so too. A rare connection, let’s drink first!"
"Alright!"
The two of them toasted in the small private room, chatting happily.
Ren Zhong deliberately tried to get information, and with the trust built on 40,000 points, Wang Zhaofu was genuinely inclined to confide in him.
The al consisted of barely edible synthetic food, barely considered culinary, yet both host and guest enjoyed it thoroughly.
Wang Zhaofu shared many anecdotes about his business dealings in dozens of nearby small towns and counties.
Ren Zhong listened with great interest.
He gathered a lot of useful information.
For example, about Liao Yuan County and Chongyi County.
Liao Yuan County is the superior administrative unit to Starfire Town, overseeing four townships, with Starfire Town being one of them, covering an area of tens of thousands of square kiloters.
From this simple piece of information, Ren Zhong deduced many things.
He had already asured that the gravity of Source Star was similar to Earth’s using a parabolic thod.
So Source Star should be about the sa size as Earth, with the land area unknown, perhaps larger due to a smaller ocean area.
Ren Zhong had been here for a long ti and had never seen a heavy rain.
Source Star’s climate is relatively dry.
But such a vast county can only prove that the population density of human settlents on Source Star is much lower than on Earth, at least much lower than in his holand.
Yet he saw a massive number of users and stockholders on daily headlines and the stock market.
The monthly sales of "Sid ier’s Armored Insights" are 142,354, with total sales of 1,965,417 copies.
Only chanical Warriors, and those with a certain wealth, would purchase this.
Based on the percentage of chanical Warriors within Starfire Town’s total population and wealth distribution, he deduced that Source Star’s population base is not smaller than Earth’s.
Everything could only prove one thing: a massive population is concentrated in cities.
Source Star’s urbanization rate is astoundingly high.
These should have existed in the wrist watch’s basic information database, but he didn’t find them; instead, he derived all this from Wang Zhaofu’s words.
After nine in the evening, slightly tipsy from the fruit wine, Wang Zhaofu checked the ti and reluctantly rose to say goodbye, "Brother Ren, it’s too late today. I need to go to the town governnt’s guesthouse for a sleep. Our... our transaction needs to be kept secret. So I won’t accompany you to check the goods. I’ll leave on my own early tomorrow morning. Don’t co to see off."
