Chapter 177: Arrest the person before leaving
Ticket?
A curious object ticket.
Wu Heng reacted instantly.
No wonder, he was able to transport so much goods here and also required buyers to pay all in ready silver coins.
Silver coins are also metals, and when they reach a certain amount, they are also a heavy burden.
Silver coins can meet more than 90% of the transaction needs on the market.
The emergence of gold coins largely solved the problem of silver coins being heavy and difficult to transport.
With this ticket, they don't need ordinary means of transportation at all.
You can take the ghost train directly and leave here.
At the same time, Wu Heng also noticed that the last paragraph in the description was an important tool for unlocking the secret of the ghost train.
secret? Important props?
This ticket is also a pre-props for a special mission.
Wu Heng stood aside and thought briefly.
Still released [Conversation with the Dead] on the corpse.
The scar-faced corpse suddenly sat up from the ground, its gray eyes looking this way.
Wu Heng asked: "How can I get where I want to go when I get on the train with this ticket?"
The corpse replied, "As long as you tell the train the city you are going to, or the specified direction and distance, the train will start."
“What is the price of the rare objects?” Wu Heng continued to ask.
Any strange thing has a price.
But the ticket in front of me was not written out.
The corpse replied, "There is no price for the ticket, but if you ride the ghost train, you will lose all your senses."
Wu Heng was stunned.
In other words, the ticket is a strange thing, and the train is also a strange thing.
There is no price for the ticket, but there is a price for using the train.
Think about it carefully.
Continue to ask the third question, “What's the secret of the ghost train?”
The corpse thought for a moment and replied, "I don't know."
It seems that the way I asked is wrong.
ˆContinued to ask: “In addition to riding on my own, how else can I use the ticket?”
The corpse paused again, and after a while, answered, "I heard that if you don't go to the designated destination after getting on the train, the train will take you directly to the ghost station."
Um!
After getting on the train, if you don't tell your destination, the train will go back.
There is one last question left.
Wu Heng continued to ask: "Are these all your goods? Are there any others?"
“No more, it's all here.”
After answering, he lay back on the ground with a bang.
At this time, Mata also came over from a distance.
He said: "Captain, you'd better come and take a look. There are a lot of goods here."
Wu Heng walked towards the direction of the sound.
Enter the house on one side.
I saw piles of leather and cloth, as well as seeds of some unknown crops. There were quite a few of them.
Wu Heng also widened his eyes in surprise.
These people actually brought such a large batch of goods with them and planned to sell them in the city.
No wonder those gang members can't eat it.
Mata said: "Captain, I'm afraid these goods will have bad luck getting out."
If this is transported out of the country, I'm afraid it will be a bit troublesome.
If one car is pulled out, it is likely to attract the attention of local gangs again.
There will only be more trouble.
Wu Heng thought for a while and continued: "Marta, you went to the Snake Emblem Consortium to find Lecia and asked me to borrow the storage sachet from her."
“Good captain.”
Marta walked out a little excitedly.
Not long after, a mercenary team came over escorting a carriage.
Stop outside the alley.
Lecia, the local head of the Snake Emblem Consortium, slowly stepped out of the carriage wearing leather armor.
Following Mata, they entered the small courtyard together.
Wu Heng was a little surprised when he saw her coming.
After all, it's not a big deal, so it's not a good idea to bother people to come in person.
“Miss Lecia wants to go there in person.” Wu Heng said hello proactively.
Lecia walked to his side, rolled her eyes at him, and said in a low voice: "Do you think the consortium's things can be borrowed casually? Arrange a team member to go over and just want to borrow it from me."
Wu Heng was stunned, "Huh? It's because I didn't think well enough."
"How do you want to use it? I sent it to you personally." Lecia said.
Wu Heng felt that Lecia was really good to him.
Except for his two team members, none of the members in the association may value themselves as highly as the other party.
He thought for a while and said to her: "I was afraid that you would be busy before, but now that you are here, you can come with me to have a look. If the consortium has ideas, we can give them to you first."
“Oh?” Lecia followed behind and walked towards the room on one side.
The door opened and I saw the goods piled inside.
“Yours?” Lecia asked.
Wu Heng explained: "To capture a wanted criminal, these are his goods, and of course they are our spoils now."
Lecia raised her eyebrows and continued: "The consortium does not do this kind of business. I have some sales channels myself, but it depends on what price Captain Wu Heng gives me." After saying that, there was something profound. He winked.
It seems to be saying, based on our friendship, if you pay me too much, it would be a bit too much.
Wu Heng said directly: "If I give it to you, it will be 30% lower than the market price."
Lecia slowly walked two steps into the warehouse. When Wu Heng caught up with her, she held her arm affectionately and said in a low voice: "Captain, I'll take it personally. It's hard for me to afford such a high price." , give it a little lower, and I will be with the consortium to make it up to you, and neither of us will suffer. "
Hey guys, you can still do this.
Whether it is the deacon of the association or the resident director of the consortium.
After reaching a certain height, there are many ways to make money.
Otherwise, in a remote place like Blackstone Town, Yazd could have saved a huge sum of money and even purchased real estate in the inner city of Luntam City.
It can be said that the way you want to make money increases with your status.
“Then how much do you want?”
“Another 20% reduction!”
Ahem~! Wu Heng coughed lightly and said: "You are crazy. This is not my own goods. My team members have also seen it. I sold it to you at such a low price. How much money do they think I made from it."
"Your two team members have just joined the job. Without you, they can't even get involved with wanted criminals at this level. It's not you who has the final say." Lecia tightened the opponent's arm again. Said: "Then let's each take a step back and reduce it by 40%. In the future, if the consortium entrusts it, I will help you take care of it. I will definitely not suffer any loss."
“Wait a minute, I'll discuss it with the team members.”
"You are still the captain, do you think you have to deal with this little thing?"
“As you said, I am a captain and not a bandit.”
Wu Heng walked out of the warehouse, called the team members who were waiting at the door to chat quietly, and told them what happened inside.
"If we agree to give the goods to her, we don't have to worry about these goods anymore, but the price will be lower than selling to the gang. It is faster and more efficient. If we don't want to sell to her, the profit will be slightly higher, but it will be troublesome. Many, we will ship out and find buyers.”
“Captain, it's up to you, what do you want to do?” Duke said directly.
Marta also said: "Captain, our team has a lot of things to do recently. Why don't we just leave this place to the consortium. It doesn't matter if we make less money."
Wu Heng nodded, "Marta, have you counted the goods?"
“I made a rough count, but didn't calculate it in detail.”
“Well, that's probably fine. I'll tell her that I'll give these goods to her and ask her to send us the money in the next two days.”
"OK."
The two of them were quite excited.
This batch of goods is enough for them to get a lot of money.
Wu Heng walked into the warehouse again, and Lecia was looking through the goods.
Looking back, "How was it?"
“These goods are yours.”
Lecia smiled brightly and said, "Thank you very much, Captain Wu Heng. I will have someone count the goods tonight and send the money to you tomorrow morning."
“Okay, I'll leave this to you. We still have something to do, so we'll leave first.”
“Okay, nice to work with.”
Wu Heng nodded and asked people to load the body onto a cart and rush towards the association.
Go all the way back to the association to take the body to the morgue and then register it.
The sky is getting darker.
A farmhouse located in the central area.
This residence is extremely spacious, with front and rear gardens and high pavilions. It is considered a first-class building in the entire central area.
Every ten steps, burly guards wearing silver armor stood.
Looking coldly, guarding his position.
Hand holding a sandalwood crutch, 'Gianluan' sat on the sofa in the hall and looked at the documents delivered to him.
Not long after, a slightly embarrassed figure staggered in.
Seeing the white-haired old man sitting in front of him, he bowed slightly and said: "Mr. Ji'anluan, now my portrait has appeared in the association, and several gang members outside are also looking for me. I want to leave here, please give me Get a carriage ready, I'm leaving tonight."
The black cloak was taken off, revealing the image of a middle-aged man with hair and beard rolled out of felt. He was none other than the 'Anel' who failed to assassinate Wu Heng.
Gianluan motioned for him to sit down and asked the maid to prepare cakes.
Anel used his dirty hands to grab the food and stuffed it into his mouth, devouring it.
The previous elegant and steady image is gone at all.
Ji'anluan took a sip of the red wine in his hand and continued: "You have been the captain for so many years, and you still fail to assassinate a mage."
"He is different..." Anel swallowed the food hard and continued: "There is something wrong with him. When Yazd failed, I planned to kill him directly and then put the crime on him, but he His melee ability is not worse than mine. I don't mean his skills, but his strength and reaction ability. If a new professional has no lower strength than me, there must be something wrong with him.”
"Oh? According to intelligence, he has just become a professional not long ago." Gianluan shook the wine glass in his hand.
“Otherwise, you think there must be something special about why Yazd chose him.”
Ji'anluan nodded, "That makes sense."
“Prepare a carriage for me. I want to leave here. This kid is so weird.” Anel said while eating.
Ji'anluan looked at him and said: "Do one more thing for me. After you finish it, I will prepare a carriage for you tomorrow and you can leave directly."
Anel raised his head and said with a slightly anxious tone, "The whole city is looking for me. I can't wait that long. I have to leave tonight."
"You don't need to take action against him. Go and capture his two maids. I will prepare horses for you then."
“I can't wait….”
Ji Anluan continued to increase his investment, "Five thousand silver coins, go to a remote place, and live a lifetime without worrying about food and drink."
"Are you crazy? Let me arrest people in the inner city?" Anel was tempted, but still doubted the feasibility of this matter.
"I will arrange everything. It won't be you yourself. I will arrange a few people for you to go and come back quickly. Remember not to die, I want to be alive."
Anel fell silent.
Finish the food on the plate.
Lie on the sofa and look at the ceiling.
After a while, he spoke calmly.
“Get the carriage and gold coins ready. I'll leave as soon as I'm done.”
"Can!"
