“This scale of business is a bit small.” Zhao Yu thought of the weapon prices he mentioned earlier and couldn’t help feeling tempted. “Do you need weapons?” “All?”

Eagle was startled and asked in surprise, “You’re willing to sell weapons?”

He had heard that such armies weren’t allowed to sell weapons as they were company property.

Zhao Yu also seemed to realize this issue. “Well, it’s normal for some military equipment to have wear and tear…”

Corruption!

Eagle immediately understood, Zhao Yu was planning to embezzle some weapons for sale.

“Well buy, well buy!”

Eagle was overjoyed. Regardless of the circumstances, weapons were solid and valuable.

Most of their people still lacked weapons, and those who had them were using old ones that had changed hands many times requiring high maintenance and care.

If they could get quality weapons from Zhao Yu, the combat power of their camp could be significantly boosted.

Zhao Yu nodded and smiled, “How much gasoline do you have?”

“Gasoline…”

Eagle understood that the other party’s purpose was gasoline, seemingly to resell it elsewhere.

This suggested that gasoline was even more expensive elsewhere than in Black Stone City.

But he didn’t expose this, as even if they knew of this trade route, they couldn’t manage it.

After the apocalypse, travel between places was difficult, and only these major forces could find opportunities to trade goods along the way.

“Gasoline, we have two hundred liters, you see…”

Two hundred liters?!

Zhao Yu frowned slightly; this amount was less, not even enough for a tank to run for half an hour.

However, it could barely fill half a tank of an armored vehicle.

“Is it too little?” Eagle noticed Zhao Yu’s dissatisfaction and felt a bit awkward. “Our gasoline is all scavenged from the old city…”

The reason their camp had developed so quickly was due to many enhancers who dared to venture into the old city, a place ordinary people feared, to search for remaining gasoline.

The two hundred liters were stealthily brought back from the old city in recent days.

They had found an abandoned gas station surrounded by monsters, which hadn’t been emptied by others, allowing them multiple trips to transport the fuel.

“Do you have diesel?” Zhao Yu continued to ask.

“Diesel?!” The market price of diesel was much lower than that of gasoline.

The main reason was that diesel was only used by large military equipment like airplanes and tanks, not by ordinary people.

So, their main focus during outings was to collect gasoline, if they came across unused diesel, they would also bring some back.

Two hundred liters might not seem much, but selling it in Black Stone City could fetch a hundred thousand Black Stone coins.

However, this was the wealth of their entire camp. It wasn’t much per person.

“We had some diesel before, but Leader Meng has already taken it to Black Stone City to sell…”

In their camp, they would periodically take the resources they had collected to Black Stone City to sell and then exchange them for food and weapons.

“Two hundred liters it is, then. 1’11 take it. Choose any of these weapons!”

Zhao Yu grandly gestured towards the guns in the hands of the guards, speaking with a bold air.

Eagle was delighted and several soldiers behind him drooled with envy.

But they didn’t dare to act rashly, fearing it might cause a misunderstanding.

Zhao Yu instructed a guard to disarm and remove all his weapon equipment.

“Pistols, rifles, military knives, take a look…”

Eagle and the others quickly gathered around, admiring the weapons as if they were beautiful women, unable to put them down.

“Look at this craftsmanship, tsk tsk…”

“Look at how new this is, definitely fresh from the factory…”

“The magazine springs are perfect…”

Zhao Yu didn’t even have to say anything; the people with Eagle were already praising the weapons on their own.

This left Eagle feeling a bit helpless.

He had planned to bargain, but seeing the current situation, he realized it wouldn’t be possible.

“Centurion Zhao, how are these guns priced?”

Zhao Yu smiled slightly and said, “You make an offer. If it’s reasonable, I’ll sell; if not, let’s forget it.”

Eagle worried about offending Zhao Yu by offering too low, yet reluctant to go too high.

Finally, he decided to base his offer on Black Stone City’s weapon prices and quoted a reasonable rate.

“A rifle, 90% new, for 4,000 Black Stone coins each…”

“A pistol for 1,000 Black Stone coins each, is that okay?”

“Okay!”

Based on Eagle’s introduction, this price was fair in Black Stone City, so Zhao Yu didn’t bother haggling and agreed.

“200 liters of gasoline, equivalent to 100,000 Black Stone coins. We’d like to exchange for ten rifles and ten pistols…”

“Alright!”

Zhao Yu casually instructed a soldier, “Go and bring ten rifles and ten pistols…”

Eagle was immediately anxious and hurriedly said, “Centurion Zhao, the price we quoted is for weapons that are 90% new, based on the ones your men are carrying…”

He was worried that Zhao Yu might bring some inferior goods.

“Don’t worry, they’re brand new!”

Zhao Yu smiled faintly. He didn’t bother swindling over such a small deal, especially since he had no old guns; all were freshly produced from his factory.

Even so, Eagle and the others were very nervous, constantly glancing at the four barrels of gasoline laid on the ground, fearing Zhao Yu might forcibly take them.

Fortunately, they didn’t have to wait long. A few minutes later, the soldier arrived with the firearms in a vehicle.

“Check them out!”
