Chapter 249 Zhou Rui (Second update)
"It's so difficult!" Yang Bo looked at the two guys in the cage. One was an invisible mouse and the other was a gerbil. When these two were put together, a male and a female, there was actually no reaction.
"Is it not time to breed yet?" Yang Bo muttered in his heart as he looked at the two little ones who didn't call.
"Ignore it for now, let's just lock them together." It's really hard to talk about beasts.
In Yang Bo's hometown in his previous life, a family went home to celebrate the New Year and brought back a beautiful corgi. This corgi liked the ugliest native dog in the village. It was also gray in color and had fur. It is also curly, unlike other local dogs that are yellow or black and shiny.
This corgi liked this native dog, and eventually gave birth to a litter of variegated short legs, which made their owner very angry.
What looks very beautiful in the eyes of humans may not be beautiful in the eyes of these animals.
Let's put it here to cultivate feelings first, and then Yang Bo is going to go out to see how the cleaning is going.
The hurricane has passed, leaving behind a pile of trash.
Coming out of the house, you can see that more than a dozen automatic robots are cleaning the entire yard, but the yard is a bit big.
Even the exterior walls of Yang Bo's house were washed by robots and water.
On the beach in the distance, you can see thick accumulations of various kinds of garbage, mostly all kinds of seaweed, as well as various animal carcasses, as well as marine animals that are not dead.
"Cleaning fees are indispensable all year round." This hurricane only lasted for a week, but according to the forecast, there will be another hurricane in five days.
Yang Bo let the robots clean up by themselves and drove his car to buy groceries. Although he could also order online, Yang Bo preferred to choose in person.
Nowadays, food is very cheap for Yang Bo. Unfortunately, many good things here are limited to purchase. For example, the most delicious mushrooms are not produced at this time.
When he came to the supermarket, Yang Bo got out of the car and drove to find a parking space to park by himself.
"Mr. Yang Bo." At this moment, Yang Bo heard someone calling him.
When he turned around, he saw a woman wearing a white shirt and a black knee-length skirt, dressed professionally.
Yang Bo almost spit out his saliva. This woman is tall, fair-skinned, and graceful. Her face is a bit like Brigitte Lin's classical beauty. Her hair is still in a simple ponytail, which makes her look fresh and beautiful.
But Yang Bo knew this person. Isn't he the president of the Bounty Hunter Guild? Seeing this beautiful woman, Yang Bo thought of a bald man. Although the bald head was disguised, it gave people a strange feeling.
"Who are you?" Yang Bo didn't know the origin of the other party. Why did the other party change his true identity and come to find him? For the longevity energy stone?
"I am a staff member of the Bounty Hunter Guild, and I want to discuss some matters with Mr. Yang Bo." The other party spoke calmly, looking at Yang Bo with his black eyes.
"How about I invite Mr. Yang Bo to the teahouse next door for a drink?" the woman said again.
"Thank you." Yang Bo decided to see what this woman was up to.
When they came to the tea house, they sat down and ordered two cups of tea. This is a plant that grows in the Gobi. The leaves of the plant are like pine needles. Once brewed with water, it will have a fragrance, and according to each person's sour taste The alkaline constitution is different, and the aroma tasted is also different.
Because it grows naturally, this tea is expensive because only a certain amount is allowed to be mined each year.
"Mr. Yang Bo is a genius. I already know about your deeds. I wonder if you are interested in joining our Bounty Hunter Guild." Just after putting down the tea and closing the transparent box door, the woman opposite said.
"Sorry, I don't want to join." Yang Bo replied with a direct refusal.
The woman opposite was a little surprised, but asked calmly: "Why?"
"I don't like your condescending way of talking." Yang Bo's answer made the other party even more surprised, and he looked at Yang Bo doubtfully.
"From the moment we met, you knew my name, but I didn't know your name at all, and you didn't introduce yourself. From this point of view, you are a bit superior." "And in terms of
your conversation skills, 伱You probably don’t do this job often, because you have to introduce yourself in the first sentence of this job. This may be because your status is relatively high in the guild." How does Yang Bo know this? He only knows the identities of others. , it’s too easy to find fault.
When the other party heard this, he was a little stunned, and then said cheerfully: "I really don't do this kind of thing often, because other people are not worthy of my level of personal invitation. Let me introduce you again, my name is Zhou Rui."
" As for my position in the Bounty Hunter Guild, I can't tell you for the time being. Our guild can provide a lot of conveniences to you, sir." Zhou Rui replied.
"But your guild is an illegal organization, and I am a law-abiding resident." Yang Bo took a sip of tea and refused directly.
Zhou Rui heard this and said, "That's just because we are not legal in the alliance. We are legal in the other two countries. Because of this, we can provide many services that you can't imagine." "In addition, if you join the
sect , our guild will provide a lot of conveniences. You can get the most advanced fighter plane drawings, and you can also get the most advanced battleship drawings." "
As for battle armor and the like, let alone it, and because it is illegal , the prices of such things are very cheap. After all, they are all private transactions, and there is no need to pay taxes to the alliance."
Yang Bo was thinking about it while listening to the other party's words. The president of the Bounty Hunter Union branch personally invited him , could it be that you have taken a fancy to your own talent?
What the other party said is indeed a reason. Take a piece of armor as an example. If it is traded in the alliance, it will have to pay more than 20% tax, including taxes starting from the transportation link.
"After joining a sect, the sect should allocate resources, right?" When Yang Bo heard this, his heart moved and he decided to find out what the sect was like.
"Mr. Yang Bo, the sect is not as good as you think. If you want to obtain resources from the sect, you must contribute to the sect. Otherwise, how can the sect continue?" "The competition among sects is very fierce, and the resources provided by the
sect It is indeed unique, such as the way you unlock it, but if you want to get better technology, you must make contributions in exchange, and this contribution does not refer to credits, which are the least valuable." "Join us
hunters Guilds and unions have a points system, and points can be redeemed for things that cannot be bought with credits." Zhou Rui continued.
Yang Bo felt that what the other party said was true. Sects also pay attention to interests. If a sect has no income, it cannot be passed on. So where will the income of the sect come from?
Of course, the things provided by the sect are definitely not available outside. Precisely because others are exclusive, it should be difficult to obtain the technology, which means more contributions are required.
Zhou Rui looked at the young man in front of him. The reason why he attracted this young man was because he was lucky.
Zhou Rui returned home the day before yesterday and told his father what happened.
My father once said: "Sometimes luck is more terrifying than your own talent, not to mention the other person's talent is too abnormal."
And his father also analyzed it carefully at that time.
That was this operation. If it weren't for Yang Bo, everyone would be in a very dangerous situation. It was Yang Bo, an inconspicuous character, who could not only quickly learn to unlock the confinement collar.
In such a large mineral vein, he alone found a few life energy stones. What does this mean? This is luck.
The wealth brought by these energy stones is enough for ordinary people to pursue for a lifetime and cannot reach it.
In many tasks of the Bounty Hunter Guild, luck is sometimes the decisive factor.
It is more cost-effective to win over Yang Bo than to win over a super strong person. If a super strong person can grow to this day, there must be a certain amount of power behind it.
As for Yang Bo, this is the critical time to win over him. As long as he has a good relationship at this time, he can be his helper.
"Mr. Yang Bo, you can take a look at what our guild has that can be redeemed with points." Zhou Rui thought of this and took out a tablet and handed it to Yang Bo.
Yang Bo is not surprised that these people like to use tablets, because this kind of tablet is just a storage device, not connected to the outside world, and has a strong anti-shielding function, so it is relatively thick.
Yang Bo took the tablet and it was displaying items and the points required for these items.
The first place on the list is the earldom of the Aqualan Empire, with a whopping 50 billion points. If you look closely, you will find that this earldom also has territory, and it is a northern hemisphere that can be moved to the planet.
The planet is about the same size as the Earth, but the temperature on it is relatively low. Only a small part near the equator is suitable for survival, and most of the rest is covered in ice and snow.
In addition, he also owed the Shuilan Empire taxes, which was about 12 billion credit points. "I don't know which scapegoat would accept this." Yang Bo took a closer look, but he didn't expect that there were many more things about this title.
The territory under the earl title must have a sufficient population. If the population is insufficient, it will be downgraded by the empire.
Then the annual taxes cannot be reduced.
Once the earl dies, his descendants will need to pay an inheritance tax of 45% if they inherit the estate. Of course, if you want to keep your title as earl, you will have to pay an additional 20% tax.
If you don't pay the 20% more, your title will be lowered by one level.
Ranked second is a mineral star. This mineral star contains a lot of rare energy metals, but its eight times gravity has discouraged countless mining companies.
The ten-year mining right is 30 billion points, which is why mining companies are unwilling to mine this kind of land.
Because eight times the gravity requires all mining equipment to be specially manufactured, and the energy consumption is about hundreds of times that of ordinary mineral planet mining equipment, although this mineral planet is said to have a lot of energy metals, there is no accurate figure for how much energy metal there is. .
That is to say, the investment is too great, and customizing mining and exploration equipment alone will require a lot of money.
There are indeed many things in the Bounty Hunter Guild, not only various armors, but also various energy stones and various equipment.
Later, people could actually be bought and sold, and they were all officially registered slaves in the Shuilan Empire.
Among them, the one with the highest price is 12 billion points. He is the son of a duke. This duke has the strength of an A-level genetic evolver.
To put it bluntly, it means buying them and breeding them. However, although the probability of genetic inheritance between people is very high, it is not 100%.
The key is that this duke and his subordinates are rebels outside, and whoever buys it may be targeted by these rebels.
There were also princesses for sale. These princesses violated the laws of the empire for some unknown reason and were reduced to slaves.
"Sorry, I think my life is very good now. Since you know that I am a genius, you must know that I just made a lot of money. Isn't it good for me to enjoy life with this big money?" Yang Bo looked at it roughly. After looking at it, he spoke.
There is indeed something in the Bounty Hunter Guild that makes me excited, including the battleship's electronic interference system, which can interfere with 99.99% of electronic equipment. However, the price of this component is a bit high and requires 900 million points.
Zhou Rui originally thought that Yang Bo would be moved after seeing what was inside, but he didn't expect that the other party would give such an answer.
"In this case, Mr. Yang Bo, can you leave a contact information? You can contact me if you need it in the future." Zhou Rui decided to wait first.
"Of course, thank you for your hospitality." Yang Bo left each other's email addresses with each other, then drank the tea in one breath and left.
Watching Yang Bo leave, Zhou Rui had a headache: "This kind of residents is the most difficult to deal with. They live under the command of intelligent systems all their lives and don't have much of their own thinking." After Yang Bo left the teahouse, he made an appointment with the fat
boss Meet.
When we arrived at a restaurant, the fat boss was already waiting here.
"Why are you so anxious to find me?" The fat boss didn't know why Yang Bo was so anxious to find him.
"Boss, someone from the Bounty Hunter Guild just invited me to join the guild." The reason why Yang Bo told Fatty Boss was to establish a persona in front of Fatty Boss, that is, he didn't understand these things and had to rely on his feelings. .
"You agreed?" The fat boss didn't feel surprised when he heard this and asked directly.
"No, I don't know what to do?" Yang Bo shook his head, as if I listen to you.
"The Thief Sect and the Bounty Hunter Guild should have a close relationship. You will definitely join the Bounty Hunter Guild sooner or later, but since he takes the initiative to invite you, you can negotiate the terms." "The Bounty Hunter Guild is indeed very powerful and is the oldest
. It is one of the social organizations. Before the interstellar era began, this organization had a strong power and a lot of good things." "
You can talk to them and get a discount when redeeming points for things, usually the highest You can get a 10% discount and don’t do mandatory tasks, that is, you can do the tasks if you like it, and if you don’t like it, don’t do it." "Most
people want to join a bounty hunter guild, and the guild has a minimum amount of tasks every year. These can also be discussed. , I’m also going to join the Bounty Hunter Guild.” The reason why the fat boss had this idea was to leave a way out for himself.
"If anything happens in the future, as long as you have the status of the Bounty Hunter Guild, you will have the right of residence in the other two countries, and the other two countries will recognize this status." The fat boss said something else that Yang Bo didn't know. things.
Yang Bo was a little surprised when he heard this: "Really?"
"Of course it's true. I don't know what happened here. The bounty hunter guild is illegal in the alliance. What's the secret?"
"Just talk to them as I said, and you can join as long as they agree." "
After all, it is an illegal organization. What will happen if the alliance finds out?"
"Just don't admit it, the Bounty Hunters Guild's list alliance If we could get it, the Bounty Hunters Guild would have ceased to exist a long time ago. There is a reason why this kind of organization can exist until now." "
Besides, let's just not take on illegal tasks. There are many kinds of tasks, including pharmaceuticals. Mission."
Yang Bo heard this and said, "Boss, why don't you help me talk about it?"
"Of course, no problem. I bought another batch of pharmaceutical materials. They will arrive in a few days." The fat boss was not surprised at all by Yang Bo's attitude. Who knew that Yang Bo was a resident before?
Residents are not as strong as citizens in their ability to make independent choices because they have been brainwashed by the alliance government since they were young and are directed around by those intelligent systems.
"Thank you, boss!"
"I should be the one thanking you. Thanks to you this time, I not only got back the money that was robbed, but also made a lot of money. With this money, I will be able to recruit more people." People."
"I have the information of two girls here, what do you think?" The fat boss is now trying his best to win over Yang Bo.
"I have sent the information to your email. They are all members of our family. Don't worry about their character. There will be absolutely no problem." The fat boss assured him again and again.
"I'll go back and watch it slowly." Yang Bo didn't care, but his face was still serious.
Then the fat boss treated Yang Bo to another meal.
Before Yang Bo left, he gave Zhou Rui's contact information to the fat boss.
Then I went back to buy groceries, and the energy interference equipment I bought was almost here.
After the fat boss got the contact information, he went back to the company to deal with some things. Because he had money recently, he recruited more employees.
Of course, what gives the fat boss the confidence is that he has the genetic medicines produced by Yang Bo. Regardless of these low-level genetic medicines, for most people, there is no way to access these genetic medicines.
In the Alliance, privately selling genetic agents is a felony, and the government limits the number of genetic agents.
"Let's talk to someone from this bounty hunter guild!" In the afternoon, the fat boss looked at the contact information in his hand and sent an email.
At this time, Yang Bo had already moved a large box to the underground fortress, and took out a football-sized round device with a base from the box.
This is a relatively advanced energy jammer. Its full name is energy shielding jammer. It is of course the civilian version. The military version is available on the black market, but it is difficult to say whether it is genuine or not.
"Let's use civilian ones first, starting from the low level." Yang Bo feels that there is a lot of room for him to develop photoelectric superpowers. This is just the beginning. After all, the foundation of a scientific and technological society is photonics. He doesn't need to understand the principles inside, he can just copy the cat and the tiger. That's it.
