“Oh…”

Aaliyah frowned as she looked at the gold necklace. Chen Xing immediately had a bad feeling. As expected, after a few seconds of silence, the devilish girl stretched out five fingers that were like jade.

“Fifty?” Chen Xing asked in surprise, as if she had really offered an unbelievable price.

Aaliyah rolled her eyes and stared straight at Chen Xing as if there was something on his face.

Just like that, the two of them looked at each other for a while. Finally, Aaliyah said, “20. One price!”

“25. Not a single copper less!” Chen Xing’s expression became serious as he said without backing down. In order to save money, he was even reluctant to remove the corpse poison. At this critical moment, how could he give in?

“You!” Aaliyah’s eyes widened as her full breasts heaved up and down. She seemed to be very angry. Her red jade-like pupils seemed to be spitting fire.

Seeing that the conflict was about to erupt, she narrowed her eyes in the next second. The anger on her face instantly turned into a boundless charm. That kind of change was naturally smooth and without any disharmony. It was as if it was supposed to be like this, as if it was natural.

“Hehe ~”

She chuckled and revealed her clean and neat teeth. Then, she slowly turned her waist and raised her hand. With a “Pa”, she slapped her round and perky buttocks.

In an instant, the waves of her buttocks surged. It was as if a large piece of jelly was trembling. It made people feel parched and their hearts were shaken.

"Let me touch you. How about it?" The devilish girl smiled and blinked at Chen Xing. The water ripples in her eyes were sparkling. At the same time, she lowered her body and revealed a breathtaking snow-white.

Chen Xing turned around and walked away without hesitation. Even if she was the future "King Level", he could not care less. This was too much of a bully. Just touching her would cost him several gold coins. Did she really think he was an idiot who had never seen a woman before?

"Twenty-three."

A calm voice came from behind him. Chen Xing slowed down his footsteps, but he was still walking forward.

"Twenty-four!" The voice became gritted, and there was a crisp sound of a shoe stomping on the ground.

"Deal." He turned around and threw the gold chain over. Although Aaliyah was not a good person, she still had a fixed business location. She was more reliable than those stallholders in the back alley.

Not long after, under Aaliyah's resentful gaze, Chen Xing's Black Watch made a light sound and displayed a set of information.

Aaliyah (Aaliyah) transferred 24 gold coins to you.

Gold: 1 silver, 3 copper (in cash), 25 gold, 1 silver, 2 copper, 6 taels (in bank)

Seeing that the money had been transferred, Chen Xing revealed a knowing smile.

"Boss, do you need some more ammunition?" Aaliyah asked expressionlessly. Her tone revealed an official attitude. At this moment, she was finally like a proper merchant.

"Can you guarantee the quality?" Chen Xing asked.

"Don't worry. Every bullet in our gun shop is imported from the Jiede Industrial Company in Dragon Stone Town. We guarantee your safety during your journey in the wilderness." Aaliyah replied in a very official manner.

"I need five boxes of Black Star Pistol bullets, two shards of grenades, and one incendiary grenade." Chen Xing said. He had already proven his ability to survive in the wilderness. If the other party still wanted to do business with him, he would have to be a little more trustworthy.

In fact, although the things sold in the back alley were cheap, the quality was not good. It was definitely not as good as the gun shop. Furthermore, he was alone in Orchid Town and did not have any reputation or status. His personal strength was not enough to deter the vendors. The vendors would still try to cheat him. Furthermore, once he was cheated, he would run away. It would be impossible for him to hold the vendors accountable. At least Aaliyah still had a store, so she would have some concerns.

The reason why his previous self was cheated was largely due to his own actions. Aaliyah felt that it was impossible for him to come back alive from the wilderness, so it was a waste to cheat him. However, when Chen Xing returned, the situation had changed fundamentally.

If he were to cheat him again, it would affect his reputation.

"Each Black Star Pistol bullet is one silver, and each box has seven bullets. Five boxes total to 35 bullets. The shards of grenades are one gold, and the incendiary grenade is one gold and two silver. In total, six gold and seven silver. This time, I'll give you a discount. Six gold is enough." Aaliyah took out the items from the cabinet and placed them on the cabinet.

Chen Xing checked it for a while and confirmed that there was no problem. Then he paid with the Black Watch.

"Many thanks for your patronage," Aaliyah said as she bowed.

"I want to buy a second-hand mobile car. Is there any recommendation?" After putting away the items, Chen Xing asked again.

"Sixth Orchid Street. The owner is called Dog King. Give him my name card..." As Aaliyah spoke, she took out a small card from the cash register and handed it to Chen Xing.

There was a line of smooth words written in the West Continent language: Aaliyah's Gun Shop (Aaliyah's Gun Shop).

"Thank you." Chen Xing nodded and left the gun shop.

Ten minutes later, he followed the address Aaliyah had given him and arrived at Dog King's motorcycle shop.

On the big signboard, there were four words written in the East Continent language: Wild Racing.

There was a row of old motorcycles in the shop, and the ground was covered in black oil stains and broken parts of the motorcycles.

"Customer, what do you need?" A middle-aged man with his hands behind his back walked over and asked.

"How much is this?" Chen Xing pointed at a seemingly very heavy, gray motorcycle with four dark green canvas bags hanging on its side.

There were other types of bikes in the shop, such as the cruising motorcycles equipped with a high-powered Thunderfire engine, Wild Tyrant, and also the saber-shaped motorcycles equipped with twelve flamethrowers, Desert Bird, and also the flaming wolf.

However, this was not something that Chen Xing could afford. At least three to four hundred gold coins. Compared to the Great Wall Cavalry that he wanted to buy, the speed and off-road ability were not on the same level.

The Great Wall Cavalry was a traditional type of motorcycle. It was driven by two rubber wheels. As for these high-end goods, the wheels were only for auxiliary purposes. They were all used to fly in the air with a jetpack.

"Twenty-eighth." The middle-aged man casually said.

It was another black-hearted merchant. Chen Xing did not speak and directly handed over Aaliyah's name card.

"Oh?" The middle-aged man revealed a puzzled expression. He took it and looked at it, then gave it back to Chen Xing. He reported a price of eighteen gold coins and five silver coins, and the fuel tank was filled to the brim.

Chen Xing did not express his opinion. He raised the Black Watch and swept his gaze over the motorcycle.

Type: Double-wheeled, no suspension

Brand: Great Wall Cavalry

Producer: East Wind Heavy Industries, Red Soil Continent Branch

Model: 1200cc

Computer: "Dreamy Jade" 3rd generation

Status: Unconnected

Car Condition: Unknown

"Can you connect it?" Chen Xing asked.

"The computer on the motorcycle is broken." The middle-aged man shrugged his shoulders and said, "Anyway, the Great Wall Cavalry doesn't need it."

"Don't think of me as a rookie." Chen Xing frowned and said. Without a computer, he would not be able to check the condition of the motorcycle. He was not a mechanic, so he did not have the relevant knowledge. He could not tell the condition of the motorcycle with his naked eyes and experience.

"You want to buy a good motorcycle with only a dozen gold coins? You are thinking too much." The middle-aged man said, "If you trust me, Dog King, then just drive away. If there is a problem, I will provide you with a warranty."

"Then forget it." Chen Xing turned around and left. There was no point in continuing the conversation. He would rather buy a car later than buy a car without a computer.

"Wait..." Just as he walked out of the shop, Dog King called out to him, "You were introduced by the red-eyed girl. No matter what, I can't reject her. Wait a moment..."

Not long after, Dog King came out of the inner room and pulled out a Great Wall Cavalry. He started it. The Black Watch scanned the car and the data came out.

Type: Double-wheeled, no suspension

Brand: Great Wall Cavalry

Producer: Dongfang Heavy Industries, Red Soil Continent Branch

Model: 1200cc

Computer Car: "Meng Yao" 3rd generation

Status: Activated, yet not connected

Car Condition: Unknown

Checking the connection port of the computer car, should it be connected?

Chen Xing pressed the confirmation button on the side of the table. The Black Watch made a "beep" sound, and new data rolled up.

Yes

Please enter the password...

Dog King reported a set of numbers, and Chen Xing entered it.

"Meng Yao" 3rd generation, connected.

Car Condition: Good

Chen Xing entered a new instruction, and more detailed information came out.

Engine System: Good + Transmission System: Good Oil Path System: Good

Air Conditioner System: Good Production Date: Dr2601-3-22

Usage Time: 11/20

[Recently maintained date: 2612-9]

[Oil tank: 97% battery: full lubricant: full]

After Chen Xing finished checking, Dog King stretched out three fingers and said, "Let's not talk about anything else. Just add three gold coins. Otherwise, I will lose a lot."

Chen Xing calculated and found that it was not enough. He asked, "Can you lend me some money?"

"How much?" Dog King asked.

Chen Xing thought for a moment and opened his palm, indicating five gold coins.

"Including interest, it will be five and a half gold coins in a month." Dog King hesitated for a moment and said.

"Alright!" Chen Xing nodded and agreed.

Then, the two of them signed the loan agreement with the Black Watch. One month later, Chen Xing had to repay five gold coins and five silver coins. The monthly interest was close to 10%. If he did not pay it on time, his credit rating would continue to drop until he repay his original debt. However, the subsequent interest would be calculated according to the standard of the World Bank, and not according to the agreement between the two parties.

After that, Chen Xing paid 16 gold coins and five silver coins.

The gold in his possession was 1 silver coin, 3 copper coins (in cash), 3 gold coins, 1 silver coin, and 2 copper coins (in the bank).

In less than two hours, the money he exchanged for the gold necklace was gone. He still owed five and a half gold coins. He had to hurry up and earn money.

He looked at the time. It was already half past one in the afternoon. There was still quite a lot of time before nightfall.

"Buzz, buzz, buzz!"

Chen Xing rode his motorcycle and turned the accelerator on, driving out of the town.

The Great Wall Cavalry was thick and sturdy. It was cheap, durable, and loved by the bottom level mercenaries. In his previous life, Chen Xing had ridden for more than ten years. He had ridden for delivery, hunting, and fighting...

Speaking of which, his life had been miserable. He had never touched a jet-engine car in his entire life. In this life, he could not do that again. He should take advantage of his youth and make money.

While thinking, Chen Xing followed the main street and drove out of Orchid Town. The distant wilderness was endless.

The slightly hot wind blew against his face. Chen Xing was in a good mood. He turned the accelerator and sped up.

"Wuwuwu …"

Suddenly, a roar came from the side. Turning his head, he saw a four-wheeled All Terrain Vehicle following him with rolling dust trailing behind it.

Chen Xing couldn't help but frown. It was someone who was tailing him again. It was obvious that the other party was not after his wealth. The necklace was nothing in front of someone with power.

The only possibility was that they had seen something from the necklace — some ancient ruins.
