The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse - Chapter 160
Chapter 160: Chapter 151, Everything is Ready (One Update Today)_2
The three of them chatted briefly, and the atmosphere was no longer as oppressive.
Bunny Girl Mini, wiped the corner of her mouth, crumbs from her biscuit, and asked: “Master, are you part of a commercial group?”
Most of those with stores in town are part of a commercial group.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t have the financial capability and capacity.
They also own houses in the inner city.
So, are thought to be members of commercial groups.
Wu Heng shook his head, “I am the leader of an association, just recently transferred, you can call me anything at home, but in public, call me leader, or directly by my name.”
Actually, being called ‘master’ by a bunch of adorable girls was quite comforting to him.
However, if this happened in public, he would feel embarrassed.
“Wow, master is the leader of an association!” Mini’s eyes widened.
The other fox girl also looked surprised.
There were numerous mercenary commercial groups in the city, but members of the association, all living in the inner city, had some law enforcement powers, which gave people the feeling of a higher status.
However, their actual authority was not as great as perceived.
“Oh, by the way, some time ago, there was a notorious criminal in the outskirts of the city who specialized in killing women and draining their blood. Master, do you know about it?” Mini suddenly said.
It seemed that Mini had a more cheerful character.
Given her young age.
Wu Heng nodded, “It was members of the Blood Worship Sect, we killed them, and also rescued several girls in the process.”
“Wow! It was really you, master. Mini was there at that time, you are my lifesaver.” Mini suddenly stood up from her chair, her face full of excitement and joy.
Oh well…
Wu Heng hadn’t expected that the maid he bought would be connected to a previous mission.
Those girls imprisoned in the basement were released by his crew member ‘Mata’. At the time, he was busy looting valuables from the bodies.
He hadn’t noticed whether or not there was such a small Bunny Girl among those girls.
“How did they capture you?”
“I had just moved here at the time, I was a bit lost because it was raining, and they caught me. Mini was terrified, and tears uncontrollably streamed down my face. After I was rescued, my eyes were swollen for several days.” Mini continued.
Not all slaves are kept in captivity.
Like when they were buying them, the management was relatively lax, but no one ran away.
Claiming to sell slaves, but it looked more like a job agency.
Beastmen society is different from human society, with its complex tribes and city-states, its conflicts and poverty, many people want to get out of there.
Slave trafficking places are a good way out.
“From now on, I’ll arrange for someone to accompany you when you go out, so you won’t have to worry about any danger.” Wu Heng said while eating.
“Thank you, Master. I have a good eye. I chose you.” Mini was beaming with happiness.
She felt such a strong connection with the man sitting across from her.
Not only had he saved her life, but he had also bought her.
There couldn’t be anything more fateful than that.
Wu Heng glanced at the other girl, who was quietly eating her dinner, and said: “Wei’er, when you go out, I’ll also arrange for someone to follow you. Things can get rather chaotic in the city.”
“Mm, thank you.”
After dinner.
The two women were no longer as cautious.
Mini was even more delighted. She cleaned up while talking to Wei’er about the circumstances of their rescue.
The deed of destroying the Blood Worship Sect had caused quite a stir in the outskirts of the city, after all.
When Wu Heng arrived, many people had already died, all women.
The residents, disheartened with the managing gangs, pooled money to hire people to resolve the issue.
Once the matter was resolved, it kept circulating for a certain period of time.
Wu Heng brought each of them some daily necessities before he went upstairs.
The two girls just sat in the living room.
They were chatting in low voices about something.
…
The next day, in the morning.
Wu Heng took the Fox Girl, Andre Willow, to a shop in the business district.
The shop was named Verdant Shop, mainly selling daily necessities.
The owner of the shop was a human, tall and thin, wearing a black suit, his hair slicked back.
In this attire, Wu Heng’s eyes slightly narrowed.
The bright sunlight had almost led him to mistake the man for Yazde, the cunning butler.
There weren’t many customers in the shop in the morning.
The entire shop was filled with a variety of daily necessities, among which were glass and pottery items.
The owner gave the two newcomers a once-over and asked: “What do you need?”
“Just looking at some glassware.” Wu Heng walked up to a shelf on the side and looked at the glass items on top.
Most of them were glasses, as well as some vases made of glass, and ornaments shaped like animals.
Wu Heng’s attention was mostly on the glasses.
The price was divided into two types, the regular looking glasses, which were somewhat cloudy with impurities inside, sold for 95 coppers.
For the slightly better products, the starting price was more than 1 silver.
Wu Heng felt this price was absurd.
This is even more outrageous than the prices in Black Stone Town.
The lower quality glassware in Black Stone Town is priced around 70 copper, but here it is directly 95 copper.
This price has doubled.
“Sir, do you want to buy? Please don’t touch if you don’t. Fragile items can break easily.” said the tall, skinny shopkeeper as he wiped the items and warned them lightly.
Wu Heng looked at himself and then at Wei’er and Basen and Bawudong standing behind him.
Although their appearances were a bit strange, they did not seem too poor.
He puts the glass cup back on the rack.
He continued to the pottery section with Andre Willow, where mainly pottery jars and plates were sold.
Not ceramics, but coarse pottery.
The prices also varied, ranging from several tens of copper.
Wu Heng glanced at the fox woman next to him, who nodded to indicate that they had seen enough.
The shopkeeper at the counter had lost interest in them.
Wu Heng took out a modern glass cup and put it on the counter, asking, “Boss, will you take this?”
The boss looked back and focused on the transparent, amber-colored glass cup.
Presently, it’s difficult to produce such a color with their craft, let alone this degree of transparency.
“Where did you get it?” He demanded.
“Will you take it or not?” Wu Heng asked.
The other party looked at the group and said, “Yes, I’ll take it for 50 coppers.”
“Boss, even the lowest price is 95 copper, this is a bit too low!” Wu Heng said.
“Our business needs to profit. If we always take this price, I won’t make any money.”
“If it’s of the same quality as the lowest, how much will you take?”
“40 copper! Let’s talk about your glass. If you tell me where this glass cup was produced, I can give you a higher price,” the boss continued.
“Let me think about it.” Wu Heng picked up the glass and left with his group.
The boss chased after them from behind the shop.
He yelled out for them to negotiate further, but he could not catch up with their pace.
…
After crossing two streets.
Wu Heng brought Andre Willow to the shop he had bought.
The shop’s main door was open, and the dust had been cleaned up.
The floor was clean, and a sign was put in the corner, which read, “ALC grocery store.”
He went straight to the backyard.
He inspected the warehouse.
At Wu Heng’s request, two layers of doors had been added inside the warehouse. In addition to the outer iron door, there was another door inside.
The reason he gave was double insurance.
The real purpose was not to be discovered when he transported supplies through the boundary door inside.
At this time, Andre Willow also came over from behind.
“Master, how should we set our prices?” Andre Willow asked.
“Well, we will also have several types, priced a bit lower than the other places,” said Wu Heng.
After all, there was no need to consider transportation costs and all the goods were received for free. It would be easier to sell them at a cheaper price.
Moreover, modern products have a better crafting process.
“Okay, master.”
“Go prepare.”
“Yes.” Andre Willow went towards the front.
Wu Heng, Basen, and Bawudong stood at the door, used a bronze key to open the inner door, and commanded the skeleton, to move all the boxes of goods collected by the others from Li Yahong one by one.
When Andre Willow came back, she was surprised to see the sudden abundance of goods.
But she didn’t say much.
Space-type tools are also a means of transportation for large trade groups.
“Everything is ready.”
“Well, you are in charge of the grand opening.” Wu Heng then turned to his skeletons, “Jianyi and Jian’er, you two stay and follow Andre Willow’s instructions.”
The two skeletons obediently walked to the other side.
They stayed by the fox woman’s side.
Wu Heng looked at the goods in the shop and watched her busying herself for a while.
After giving an order, he returned to his residence.
…
He returned to Zombie World.
Alchemy 1 emerged, dry palms holding two potions.
