I Have A City In An Alternate World

1493 Snatching business (1)

After being locked up in the dark room for three days, Tang Zhen was called out by the guards and sent to a new cell.

After a spirit realm prisoner was captured, most of them would be forced to participate in physical labor in order to consume their energy.

The prisoners were busy from morning to night every day, and they were all physically and mentally exhausted. They had no time to do other things.

Where there were people, there would be Jianghu. It was even more so in this prison where prisoners were locked up. Perhaps they had heard that Tang Zhen had beaten all the prisoners in the room to the point that they were rolling on the ground. No one in the new prison cell provoked him. They only looked at him with a somewhat unfriendly gaze.

A strong Dragon would not be able to suppress a snake in its own territory. Tang Zhen had already been remembered by people. It was likely that there were people thinking of ways to take revenge on him.

If an ordinary person was targeted, it was likely that they would be skinned even if they did not die. However, to Tang Zhen, this kind of battle was merely child’s play.

If he was really pissed off, it wouldn’t take long for this place to become a ruin!

Since no one provoked him, Tang Zhen was also happy to be quiet. After staying for a day, he went to the nearby mine to dig stones under the watch of the guards.

This mine produced a very precious metal that could be used to help Spirit Masters refine spirit weapons. Thousands of prisoners worked here every day, digging out pieces of stone from the mountain and breaking them into pieces the size of eggs.

Every prisoner was given a fixed amount. If they could not finish their work, their food would be cut in half, or even only a bowl of soup.

Tang Zhen took the sledgehammer that the supervisor had distributed and followed the prisoners to find a place. He waved the sledgehammer and began to hammer the rocks.

One by one, the stones were smashed, and the ores inside were picked out and placed into the basket. Sometimes, when an entire stone was smashed, only a few pieces of useful ores could be found.

The prisoners were all covered in sweat, their faces covered in dust and mud, and they would curse from time to time.

“Brother, do you want some bewilderment grass?”

A prisoner came in front of Tang Zhen and asked in a low voice.

“Bewilderment grass, what’s the price?”

Only after hearing the prisoner’s question did Tang Zhen remember that there were still dozens of catties of bewilderment grass in the ball of light. It had been left in the corner and ignored.

Bewilderment grass was only harmful to ordinary people, but to Spirit Masters, it was a medicinal herb that nourished and restored the soul. It was just that there was a limited supply.

In a place like this, bewilderment grass was a rare treasure. Even if it was mixed with a lot of impurities, it could still be sold for a high price.

1000 spirit coins for one serving. The price is absolutely fair!

As he spoke, the prisoner took out a bunch of bewilderment grass the size of a fingernail and let Tang Zhen have a look.

“That’s right, but I don’t have money!”

Tang Zhen glanced at the bewilderment grass that was mixed with wild grass and gently shook his head.

“If you don’t have money, why are you asking?”

The prisoner had a look of disdain on his face. He quickly put away the Super TRPG in his hand and walked away with his tools.

Tang Zhen ignored this fellow. Instead, he frowned and thought for a moment before turning his head and walking toward the few prisoners not far away.

“Buddy, do you want some bewilderment grass?”

The few prisoners, who were sweating profusely, were stunned for a moment. They frowned as they sized up Tang Zhen before gently nodding their heads.

Tang Zhen smiled as he took out a bunch of bewilderment grass from the ball of light. It was also the size of a fingernail and looked very fresh.

The prisoner took it and sized it up, a satisfied look on his face.

not bad. You didn’t add any grass or leaves. You still have a conscience!

The prisoner turned to look at his companion and said, ” “Old Fang, has your soul’s injury healed?”

The prisoner named old Fang shook his head. After sweeping his gaze over Tang Zhen, he lowered his voice and said,”I want more, the same quality as the one you have. Can you get it?”

Tang Zhen’s expression did not change as he gently nodded.

The bewilderment grass was of no use to him, so he could use it to exchange for spirit coins. Then, he could exchange for better potions from the cornerstone platform.

“Tomorrow at this time, bring 200 points and we’ll trade here!”

After the two parties finished their agreement, they quickly separated. Tang Zhen carried his tools and looked for his next target.

The targets he had chosen were all prisoners with damaged souls. After going around, he had settled on an order of 500000 spirit coins.

One should not underestimate these prisoners. Most of them were advanced spiritual disciples. If they wanted to use money, they could ask their companions outside to send them in.

In order to heal the injured soul as soon as possible and avoid any residual effects, no one would be reluctant to part with this little spirit coin.

Even Tang Zhen did not expect that these spiritual disciples would be so rich. It seemed like he had unintentionally discovered a way to make a fortune.

He had stayed here to avoid being caught and could leave after the wind died down. Now it seemed like he had killed two birds with one stone. It didn’t matter even if he left a little later!

By the time the sun set, the prisoners returned one after another. After washing up, they went to sleep.

After arriving at the mine the next day, Tang Zhen completed the transaction according to the agreement and quietly put the spirit coins into his storage space.

The first transaction went smoothly, and Tang Zhen’s confidence doubled. He began to continue to develop customers, and before the sun set, he finalized a large order.

The bewilderment grass in the ball of light weighed a few dozen catties, and each portion only weighed a few grams. If he were to sell all of them, it would be enough for Tang Zhen to exchange for a large amount of spirit coins.

He returned to the prison after work, and it was time for dinner. However, as soon as he sat down at the table, a few prisoners came over.

“They’re here. They’re fast!”

Tang Zhen coldly laughed. He pretended to turn a blind eye and ate his dinner in big mouthfuls.

“Kid, do you know the rules?”

The bald man beside Tang Zhen approached him and said in a low voice. His eyes were filled with an ominous glint.

The other prisoners also looked at Tang Zhen with an unkind expression. Their threatening intent was extremely obvious. Two of them had even deliberately revealed their self-made weapons that were polished to an extremely sharp point.

Pushing the wooden lunch box aside, Tang Zhen said indifferently, there will naturally be competition in business. You sell what you want and I sell what I want. Isn’t it good to mind our own business? ”

The bald man chuckled and shook his head, ” don’t give me all this useless crap. I’ll give you a chance to redeem yourself. Hand over all the bewildering grass in your hands and compensate us with a million spirit coins. Otherwise, I’ll teach you a lesson!

“If you want to teach me a lesson, sure, I’ll be waiting for you!”

Tang Zhen ignored the fierce glint in the bald man’s eyes. He stood up, placed the tableware aside, and walked out as if nothing had happened.

That night, the prisoners in the same room all looked at Tang Zhen with strange eyes. Some of them even had gloating in their eyes.

They had already heard about what happened in the cafeteria and concluded that Tang Zhen was going to be in trouble.

He had offended the fiercest group of people here and was openly snatching business, so it was not surprising that he was killed by them.

Tang Zhen was not in the mood to pay attention to this group of people. He merely meditated on his own and slowly repaired his body.

A new day had arrived. Tang Zhen felt full of energy and continued to work hard for his money-making plan.

The process of the transaction was still smooth, but most of the customers were looking at him with a strange expression. Clearly, they had also heard that someone was going to deal with Tang Zhen.

During this period, someone even vaguely reminded him. Tang Zhen merely smiled in response and did not take it to heart.

Not long after, a few prisoners walked towards Tang Zhen. There were even people protecting them at the side to distract the guards ‘attention.

He was currently in a pit that had been dug. If he didn’t get close, he wouldn’t be able to see what was happening inside.

In truth, this was also a location that Tang Zhen had deliberately chosen. Since the other party wanted to deal with him, he also wanted to use this matter to establish his might!

As long as he could get rid of these guys, he would be able to do business freely here and earn enough spirit coins first!
