Chapter 1173 - Fifty Thousand Crystals

1173 Fifty Thousand Crystals
Subway Line 0, ID Card, Wan Peng, Shangjing Survivor Alliance…
Several keywords were connected together by a card.
Jiang Chen was not sure what was hidden inside Subway Line 0, but he was sure of one thing.
Wan Peng, Ding Liwei, and even Archbishop Xu Tiannan omitted some information from him.
They especially did not tell the whole truth in regards to the subway lines in Shangjing City.
After he went back upstairs, he found Lu Fan.

Get our brothers to prepare, it’s time to go.

When Lu Fan heard Jiang Chen’s words, he was relieved and smiled bitterly.

Gen… boss, you are finally willing to go back?


Hmm?
Jiang Chen laughed.
Is it not fun on the streets?


Fun? We’re all stressed out from ensuring your safety,
Lu Fan said with a bitter expression.

Haha,
Jiang Chen patted Lu Fan’s shoulder.
Great work. When I go back, I will get the chefs to prepare a few pounds of braised beef for you, and get you a few bottles of good booze to help you relax.

Gulp–
When the 1.80m tall man heard the words
braised beef
he uncontrollably swallowed.

Look at you.
Jiang Chen laughed, then kicked him on the butt.
Hurry up and pack everything up in five minutes. If someone isn’t ready in five minutes, I promise you he’ll drink so much soup that he’ll never want to drink soup again.


Hehe,
Lu Fan rubbed his head in embarrassment before he turned around and jogged away.
While Lu Fan went back to delegate, Jiang Chen returned to his room, opened the storage dimension, and took out a large box of crystals. 50,000 crystals was not a small number. He only stored around 100,000 crystals in his storage dimension.
However, Jiang Chen did not feel pained by this. After all, the entire Pingan Street still owed him 10 million crystals. It won’t long before the Shangjing Survivor Alliance hulled a truck-full of crystals to his door.
Fifty thousand was nothing but a drizzle.
It didn’t take five minutes at all.
In less than a minute, the twenty guards were packed and stood in the living room in a straight line.
They still wore their mercenary outfits, but the powerful K2 kinetic skeletons were hidden inside their clothes.
With a satisfied nod, Jiang Chen ordered.

We may encounter trouble on the way back. Keep your eyes open! If someone is pointing a gun at us, don’t talk nonsense and just fire, YOU HEAR ME?


Roger!

Twenty guards pounded their chests and replied with force.
…
After about ten minutes, the auction was over, and the hotel manager personally came to Jiang Chen’s room with a few assistants.
The cobblestone-sized crystals piled in the box illuminated with a mysterious green ray that could blind eyes. The eyes of the assistants all turned dark green. Even the hotel manager who often saw a large number of crystals gulped at the sight.
The hotel manager personally scanned the crystals with four crystal quality analyzers for more than twenty minutes before he counted the box-full of crystals.
The crystals totaled 50,124 units of energy.
Jiang Chen considered the extra 124 crystals as their tip.
After the settlement was complete, Jiang Chen took the ID card from the manager and put it in his pocket. He then asked casually,
Do you not have a bank here? The type that can transfer money?


We don’t have that here,
The hotel manager shook his head with an apologetic smile.
Only the one-hundred denomination issued by the City Hall can be settled for high-value goods. The denomination can be exchanged for the equivalent value in crystals from the City Hall at any time, but it is only circulated in the walls of Pingan Street. Outside of it, it’s a piece of scrap paper.
The hotel manager sighed.

I heard that there is a credit payment system in Wanghai in the south. Only if Shangjing has a similar system.

It was impossible to open a bank on the wasteland without absolute strength. Even the Shangjing Survivors Alliance didn’t have the power to complete this feat.
In a place without law, daring to open a bank was asking to get robbed.
What’s more, without the ability to protect the wealth, how could others trust their assets with the bank?
Jiang Chen pondered, maybe he could move NAC’s bank to Shangjing, and open a branch here. The economic and trade exchanges between Shangjing and Wanghai were closely connected and he absolutely deemed it to be necessary.
However, these plans must wait until the troubles of CCCP were resolved.
…
Five kilometers away from Pingan Street, a short man rushed into Dongcheng Hospital. He showed his identity to the guard in a fur outfit and then ran upstairs.
On the side of the parking lot, Brother Tiger with his face bruised was sitting in a chair. The two cats on his face were replaced by a few bandages. At the moment, a woman dressed in a nurse uniform was kneeling between his legs. From her numbness and weary expression, it was easy to see she had suffered a tremendous amount of abuse.
With an expression of enjoyment, Tiger took out a bad-quality cigarette and lit it for himself.
At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open and his pawn rushed in.

Brother, Brother Tiger!


FUK!

Tiger was startled and almost couldn’t control himself.
He kicked away the woman who was kneeling in front of him, stood up, and pulled up his pants. Just as he was about to unload his rage, he saw who came in and his anger dissipated.
Tiger did up his belt and sat back down. Then he asked nonchalantly.

What is the situation?


They are out of town!
The short man gasped while he bowed down,
They just left the South Gate. I have told people to follow them.


Very good,
Tiger’s face revealed a menacing smile. He then grabbed a dagger from the table.
Bring dozens of our brothers and follow them back to their settlement. Kill all the men and leave the women. Also, cut the leader’s hands and feet for me. I need him alive.


Yes, yes!
The man nodded quickly.

Why’re you still here?
Seeing that the pawn did not move, Tiger raised an eyebrow.
The short man grinned and bowed again.

Here is what happened. Before they left Pingan Street, I sent people to the Dorsett Hotel to learn more about them. I learned a piece of extremely interesting news.


Oh? Go on.
Tiger said.

These people are quite rich! Especially the leader! I heard that they spent fifty thousand crystals at the Dorsett Hotel, just to buy a card that may or may not work.

Fifty thousand crystals!
Tiger’s eyes suddenly turned red when he heard the number. So red that it looked like his eyes were bleeding. He wished that card belonged to him.

Fuk, fifty thousand crystals to buy a card?


It’s rumored that the card is the ID card for Subway Line 0’s security certification system. But you know that is just a myth.

Tiger’s small eyes narrowed into slits and greed filled his pupils.

So, the card is worth fifty thousand crystals?

Fifty thousand crystals!
He had never seen so many crystals in his life!
If he had fifty thousand crystals, he could buy a set of power armor in Pingan Street!
With one foot on the chair, Tiger spat out, grabbed the rifle on the table, and fired into the ceiling.
Soon, after hearing the gunshots, several of his confidants rushed in.
Shouting at his confidants, Tiger stabbed a dagger into the wooden table and commanded like a true thug.

FUK YA! The juicy piece of meat left town. Go and prepare! Bring our brothers and finish this deal! Drive our modified truck. If we get this deal done, we’ll have fun for a year.


OHHHHH!!!


MIGHTY TIGER!


TAKE THE MEAT!

The cheers of the raiders filled the room.
The blood of hatred boiled in Tiger’s chest as he gathered up his boys.
As soon as he thought of the humiliation from last night, he could not wait to peel off the man’s skin, strip the man’s tendons, and cut his flesh to feed the dogs.
Yesterday’s humiliation must be paid one hundred times in return!
