The First Evolution

Hearing Fang Linyan's words, Mark Wen was taken aback, because as soon as his uncle met, he either scolded him or forced him to work in the workshop, so unless he was short of money, he would never go to his uncle's place. of. But the words of his refusal have not been spoken. Fang Linyan has already made a preemptive strike, and directly took out a platinum coin on the table and said:

"Whether it works or not, it's your reward."

Then he lowered his voice and said:

"Remember we modified that car yesterday? We went out on a mission later, and then... something happened! Because I'm a raw face, it's not easy to attract attention, so Captain Lucan specially sent me back , this is the token he gave me. It is said that there is a big business of more than 1,000 platinum coins to be discussed with Colonel Gundom. If it is successful, I can give you a dividend of 20% of the platinum coins!"

"Two... Twenty percent!?" Mark Wen trembled, he made the calculations in his heart, and even his whole body trembled: "Isn't that two or two... a hundred pieces? Platinum coins?"

"Yes!" Fang Linyan said simply.

Mark Wen suddenly said:

"You, you can't fool me!"

Fang Linyan shrugged helplessly and said:

"First, I have nothing to do with my free time. I use a platinum coin to play tricks? Second, do I despise my life for too long? Make fun of your uncle."

Mark Wen thought about it and thought it was right, so Fang Lin Yan said:

"You wait here, I'll ask right away."

As a result, in less than three minutes, Mark Wen came back in tears:

"My uncle was angry, he said he wasn't there."

Fang Linyan sighed and said:

"You run again and say that I have a blood orchid with me. If I can't get a blood orchid when I go in, then your uncle will shoot me and kill me."

After such cruel words were released, Mark Wen, who was quite frustrated, was also stunned, and then walked in again. He soon returned, this time beckoning to Fang Linyan.

Following Mark Wen's footsteps, Fang Linyan came to the outside of a rough-looking office. There were two sturdy guards standing at the door. The guards had obvious black cross marks on their chests and reached out to stop Fang Linyan.

Although it is at the door of the office, you can also see a deer head specimen hanging on the opposite wall, a bear skin is spread next to the coffee table in the living room, and the other wall can be called a firearms exhibition room. There are more than a dozen firearms with unique styles on the mountain, and it can be seen that each one has been carefully taken care of.

Colonel Gundom sat arrogantly opposite the desk. The old man was taking a deep breath of a thick cigar, letting the light blue smoke circulate in his breathing system for more than ten seconds before exhaling comfortably. He put the cigar on the ashtray next to him.

He has a huge nose, a cold face, energetic, and a burly stature. Although more than half of his hair is white, he is as domineering as a polar bear in his own lair. The skin was peeled off.

There is also a young and beautiful female secretary standing beside her, her eyebrows are curved. Although this woman is wearing a military uniform, the first thing people think of in their minds after seeing it is the bed...

Colonel Gundom glanced casually at Fang Linyan outside the door, and then continued to look at a yellowed photo in his hand. The content of the photo seemed to be a family portrait, and then immersed himself in the memory.

After a full five minutes, he picked up the cigar next to him, and after seeing that it was extinguished, he waved to Mark Wen who was standing next to him, and Mark Wen trotted over immediately.

But after Colonel Gundom snorted displeasedly from his nose, Mark Wen slapped his head and took out a black box from the cabinet next to it, with the logo of the Brotherhood of Steel Fist on it.

Sent it directly to my uncle.

Colonel Gundom nodded with satisfaction, opened the box and put the yellowed photo inside, then the half cigar, and finally locked the box with a click.

In that short period of time, Fang Linyan had already seen that the box seemed to be quite heavy, with a specific area marked out for the yellowed photo, and the rest were all long dents, most of which were Empty, only three cigars -- plus three and a half cigars just put in, and the box is still locked with a combination lock.

Colonel Gundom gently stroked the surface of the box and said to Mark Wen seriously:

"You must remember that this box contains my most precious treasure: the two things I love most in my life, cigars and family are in it, if one day I die, you will bury it with me ."

Mark Wen shrugged and said helplessly:

"OK, OK, uncle, you repeat similar words every few days, I can already memorize it."

When Mark Wen was talking, he looked at Fang Linyan outside, with an inquiry in his eyes.

Colonel Gundom snorted impatiently from his nostrils, sat up a little, then nodded at the guard at the door.

The two guards silently gave Colonel Gundom a military salute, then searched Fang Linyan honestly up and down, and finally took out a fist-sized box from his arms. , let him open it to see what's inside.

Fang Linyan simply opened the box and showed the contents inside. Colonel Gundom immediately raised his eyebrows slightly:

"Is this the blood orchid you're talking about?"

It turned out that in the box in Fang Linyan's hand, there was a leaf of a crystal clear and thick blood orchid!

Facing the question, Fang Linyan smiled slightly:

"This is just to prove that I didn't lie. As for the rest, it is kept in a very safe place. As long as we negotiate, it can be delivered in minutes."

Colonel Gundom beckoned, and Mark Wen immediately handed over the blood orchid leaves on Fang Linyan's hand. Colonel Gundom looked at it carefully, then closed his eyes and pondered for a while:

"Then what is your intention?"

Fang Linyan sighed and started to fabricate himself (oh no, the story should be told after processing the real events), nothing more than they went to carry out the mission, but the information was wrong and they encountered the Titan Python and killed it. It got the blood orchid, but the task it was assigned before must not be able to do it.

At this time, a group of people were on their way back, and they were chased by the reapers again. Captain Lucan was seriously injured. Therefore, the deputy captain Dorga had a different opinion and led a few cronies to split directly, and wanted to kill them. Blood Orchid. After a fight between the two sides, Dolga and the others had the upper hand, and only Captain Lucan and himself managed to escape.

Because Dolga is very aware of Captain Lucan's interpersonal contacts, Captain Lucan's network cannot be used. Dolga will probably closely monitor the exchange point and the contacts that Captain Lucan may go to. Once he shows up, he will be very It is easy to be targeted for black guns and direct plotting. After this incident, Captain Lucan was also disheartened and wanted to take a large sum of money and start a new life in a distant place, so he could only entrust Fang Linyan to do this.

Fang Linyan hoped that the blood orchid could be exchanged for what the two of them needed, and the two leaves of the blood orchid were the handling fee they gave Captain Gundome.

In order to prove his words, Fang Linyan also took out Captain Lucan's dog tag as a token.

After listening to Fang Linyan's words, Colonel Gundom was noncommittal, tapped lightly on the table with his knuckles, and said after a while:

"What do you want?"

Fang Linyan Road:

"I need to look at the list of equipment/props that can be exchanged in Steel Fist Fortress today before I can tell you."

Colonel Gundom said:

"Then what can I get?"

Fang Linyan Road:

"The blood orchid has six leaves, and you can get two."

Colonel Gundom said:

"Then the last leaf, you must have traded it to me at the last moment?"

Fang Linyan Road:

"Yes, I admit that you must be at risk in this way, but my lord, you have already acquired a leaf of a blood orchid, so it is already worthless."

Colonel Gundom said coldly:

"However, I want more!"

Fang Linyan Road:

"Of course you can, but the contribution points we exchange for things are up to you."

Colonel Gundom said coldly:

"No, I prefer to pay with bullets."

Fang Linyan shrugged and said casually:

"Sir, you are our best choice, but definitely not the only choice. If I don't go out for another half an hour, Captain Lucan will go directly to Lieutenant Colonel McVin. In his eyes, my life is not worth it. It's better to take a risk than nothing, of course, you can also gamble to see if you can catch Captain Lucan, but to be honest, your chances of winning are slim."

Colonel Gundom took out a cigar from the drawer next to it, lit it, and took a deep breath. In his eyes, there was the same greed and ruthlessness that a winter brown bear sees its prey:

"If you want me to help, in addition to two blood orchid leaves as a handling fee, I also need the root of the blood orchid! And, give it to me at the first transaction!"

Fang Linyan shook his head and said:

"I can't control this matter, I have to discuss it with the captain. Could you give me the list of equipment/props that can be exchanged for today? Also, Colonel Gundom, although we are asking you now, and still The weaker party has its own bottom line, and once we find out that someone is being followed, then the transaction will be declared a failure."

Colonel Gundom stared at Fang Linyan with gray pupils:

"Boy, you are really courageous, you dare to speak like that in front of me."

Fang Linyan said calmly:

"That's because I know I'm safe until you get the root of the blood orchid and the remaining leaf! I'm the one who can bring you wealth! And it's enough to make the devil jealous Eyeballs fall out."

Colonel Gundom snorted coldly, and first reached out and asked Fang Linyan for the box containing the blood orchid leaves, and then handed it to his confidant, asking him to immediately check the authenticity of the blood orchid.

Then Colonel Gundom rang the summoning bell on the table and called in a guard waiting outside. Colonel Gundom whispered a few words to him, and the man went out to run errands.

After waiting for less than ten minutes, the guard returned, and brought back a handwritten list, which he handed to Fang Linyan:

"This is what you want."

Fang Linyan opened it and looked at it, and found that only a few lines of scribbled fonts were written on it, and suddenly said:

"Why is there only so much?"

Colonel Gundom scoffed at his question, and pointed at his nephew Mark Wen with his carrot-like fat finger:

"You can ask such a stupid question! You tell him!"

Mark Wen told Fang Lin Yan about the key. It turned out that in the Contribution Exchange Office of the Brotherhood of Steel Fist, Class E and Class D props and equipment were all mass-produced, so Lucan himself knew this part of the list very well. , and it is not expensive, so there is no need to copy it.

The props and equipment starting from the C category can be understood as limited editions, and the replenishment process after being bought is complicated and the interval is long.

Therefore, what is listed on this list is a list of exchangeable goods of C and B categories.

As for why there is no class A, the explanation is very simple and straightforward, that is, after Fang Linyan and the others removed the reward, the remaining blood orchids are not enough to exchange for equipment and props above class B. Fang Linyan is also dumbfounded. Speechless, after all, exchanging items requires contribution value, which is something that money is hard to buy.

After knowing the cause and effect, Fang Linyan excused himself that he couldn't be the master and had to discuss it with the captain, so he went straight out the door, and then swaggered into a nearby cafe called "Desert Camel". It is said to be a coffee shop, but in fact there is only one kind of coffee and it is surprisingly expensive. The two main beverages sold are cactus fruit tea, and the herbal tea "Jijisang" made from a common herbal medicine nearby.

Cactus fruit tea is a mid-to-high-end drink. It can add crystal clear ice cubes and purple cactus fruit, and it looks good.

"Jiguisang" is aimed at low-end people, a large cup of copper coins, and can be refilled for free. It is scooped out of the large pot that is boiled next to it, showing a yellow-green color, and there are many turbid grass roots in it. Some people drink it directly as vegetable soup or traditional Chinese medicine. The taste is bitter and sweet, and it is still quite popular.

After entering the cafe, Fang Linyan went directly to the second floor where the environment was good and no one was disturbed, and then ordered Cactus Fruit Tea, and then crossed Erlang's legs and began to slowly look at the exchange list:

Class C exchange products (contribution point exchange range is 50-100 points) are as follows:

5 PPK hybrid engines (2 remaining)

40 tons of diesel, self-pickup (already exchanged for 6 tons)

10 nickel-iron alloy ingots (10 remaining)

20 bee sting variable frequency directional rockets (0 remaining)

Three all-terrain armored motorcycles (1 remaining)

Field first aid medical kit (including cardiac needle X5, anesthetic X2, medical alcohol X1, stimulant X3, two rolls of bandages) five (the remaining three)

Peiling mustard (1 pack remaining)

The exchange price of contribution points is as follows...
