Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely

Chapter 93: 83 Business



The heavy motorcycle had rather wide and thick tires, which meant it didn\'t need a stand or foot support even when stopped.

By now, a hulking man over two meters tall had casually stopped his motorbike to the side and was leaning on it while smoking a cigarette, disinterestedly.

He didn\'t need his underling to reply because he had already heard Tao Yu\'s somewhat dopey voice and then chuckled.

"Are you dumb? How many of us Pioneers have come in total? Could we possibly form such a large group?"

This made the helmet-wearing underling pause, and then he looked back at the cargo trucks and motorcycle brigade that began to slow down.

He saw that many of the motorcyclists\' hands were wrapped in blood-soaked bandages; lots of them were riding one-handed, with others seated behind their comrades.

This, captured natives?

Still, being able to capture more than a dozen adult males, the overall strength of the Pioneers wasn\'t weak, though it was unclear exactly how it was distributed.

It was only then that Panda, the man from the Inner City with a height of two meters and thirty, flicked away his cigarette butt and got off his bike, taking the initiative to walk towards Tao Yu.

After seeing a fuel tanker at the back, he raised his eyebrows and said to Tao Yu, who was leaning out of the driver\'s cabin,

"Is that in the back carrying oil?"

"Yeah, I\'ve got also got more than twenty off-road motorcycles in this haul, along with plenty of daily supplies, and about twenty guns, plus the motorcycles they were sitting on."

Tao Yu, while talking to the outside group of the Motorbike Gang, rubbed his mouth without much concealment.

The base was in dire need of development now; it\'s entirely possible that those two from the Floating City were looking for an opportunity to make an example of someone. Tao Yu didn\'t think anyone would be foolish enough to rob them at the gate of the base.

After all, he had registered with the Suns siblings; even if they wouldn\'t show favoritism, he still had a place to speak.

If his judgment were wrong and he did encounter a robbery...

Tao Yu\'s gaze began to assess the equipment on this burly man; it wasn\'t the kind of mechanical modification that would explode, and it was uncertain which pieces were Yuan Force equipment.

Causing a bloody mess at the gate of the base wouldn\'t be too pleasant, right...

"Well now, you got lucky; I don\'t recognize your face, bro. From the outer city?"

Panda didn\'t mind that Tao Yu hadn\'t come down, using one hand to prop himself against the side of the truck while his gaze lingered on the injured Motorbike Gang members, as though he was evaluating something.

"From the outer city, Grade A \'Dynamic Vision.\' I\'m the one who found this place and reported it to Miss Sun."

As Tao Yu spoke, he also rested his hand on the window, revealing the mission watch on his wrist.

You can\'t hesitate when it\'s time to show your strength; it\'s best to nip some thoughts in the bud and that can save a lot of trouble.

Once the other party entertains the idea, and even acts upon it, the effect of pulling out these cards later would be much less, after they\'ve invested and committed to their course.

Even if the other party decides to back off, a feud would have been established, and it wouldn\'t be worth it.

As a former corporate drone in his past life, Tao Yu was very clear about these things.

Now, with his current utility value and demonstrated abilities, he shouldn\'t make an Inner City Pioneer do anything undignified.

And Tao Yu\'s hints indeed made Panda\'s expression stiffen slightly, followed by a somewhat dissatisfied response,

"The way you talk, bro, makes it seem like I\'m the type to steal other\'s prize."

"Big bro misunderstood; I just like to show off a bit, my apologies."

Tao Yu wore a smile full of cheerfulness.

As for whether he wanted to cut in, only the other party knew. If they really had no intentions, they wouldn\'t have come over specifically. Got nothing better to do, huh...

"Hey, kid, you\'re quite interesting. Grade A \'Dynamic Vision,\' right? You might be coming into the city later. Let\'s get to know each other in advance, I\'m Panda."

Panda flashed a grin, looking up at Tao Yu in the driver\'s cabin and stretched out his hand upwards.

With a towering height of two meters and thirty, even with Tao Yu sitting in the elevated position of the truck\'s cabin, Panda\'s hand could reach directly up to him.

Tao Yu also reached out the window and shook hands with him, with no sign of getting out of the truck.

"You flatter me, Big Bro Panda. It\'s all thanks to the reward from Miss Sun for completing a mission in advance. There\'s still a long way to go before I can enter the city."

"Sell me these goods, all together for twenty thousand Yuan Force, I\'m not letting you suffer a loss."

Panda\'s offer immediately brought a smile to Tao Yu\'s face.

He then opened the vehicle\'s door, jumped down, and ended up looking up at Panda.

"How can I not sell when Big Bro Panda wants to buy? Not including the two big trucks in the price, of course."

Panda\'s eyelids twitched, but he still nodded and said

"If you\'re willing to sell the goods and these people, including both vehicles, for a bit more money, we can agree on that, but you have to teach us how to drive."

"I\'m not selling the big truck for now, but you\'ll be the first one I consider when I do."

In reality, Tao Yu had made some estimates, having just plundered this group of the Motorbike Gang. Each living person was worth a hundred Yuan Force, plus more than twenty guns averaging a hundred each.

The dozen or so motorcycles could also be averaged at over a hundred each, and packaging them together could amount to around seven thousand Yuan Force.

The goods in both his vehicles combined, considering the current shortage, should be estimated at about ten thousand Yuan Force as well.

The other party was willing to offer a total of twenty thousand, which was a bit of a premium.

This was the opportunity of a new Development Zone, a new gathering place!

Danger and reward coexisted!

Tao Yu knew that if the other side was willing to pay a higher price, they would certainly have ways like credits, goodwill, or retailing the items individually to make a return and certainly profit from it.

But for Tao Yu himself, quick monetization with a premium was a clear gain!

The time wasted retailing by himself was better spent making another trip!

"How do you want to handle the payment? Just to let you know, there are two indigenous women that I\'m keeping."

Now that Tao Yu had grown a bit taller, he still appeared \'petite\' in front of Panda\'s towering stature of two meters and thirty centimeters.

Upon hearing Tao Yu\'s words, Panda glanced at the two indigenous women, who in his view were only moderately attractive, and couldn\'t help but feel amused.

Those bumpkins from the outer city had no experience, but if they were lascivious, future deals could cater to their tastes.

"Alright."

As he spoke, Panda took out a magnetic card and began to imbue it with Yuan Force with his eyes closed.

He clearly didn\'t have the wealth of the Suns\' siblings to carry pre-loaded magnetic cards, and twenty thousand Yuan Force was still a significant amount to him!

It was only because his talent was decent, and his family saw the potential for development here, that they provided additional sponsorship.

However, he knew that this investment and transaction would not result in a loss.

Leaving other considerations aside, the group of able-bodied men, with some training, could start to create value.

Regarding the goods, sorting out the useless for credits and distributing the useful ones, plus selling some easy-to-sell items separately, would certainly yield more.

In a new gathering place where everything was yet to be built, for him, the importance of materials far outweighed Yuan Force!

With these materials, it would be convenient to set up his own crew.

A win-win situation!

"Thanks, Brother Panda. Where should I unload the merchandise?"

Tao Yu took the magnetic card and absorbed all the Yuan Force, then handed the empty card back to Panda.

He had a magnetic card with a maximum limit of a hundred thousand, so there was no need to keep taking so much.

"Let\'s go into the base first. I\'ll get some oil drums, and you can just put the goods on the ground for now, as the warehouse has been requisitioned by the two big shots," Panda said while motioning his underlings to make way and then turned back to Tao Yu,

"What do you think, little brother? Interested in joining my team? You can drive, and we could work together transporting goods to grow stronger."

"I\'m used to being wild on my own, I\'ll try my luck solo first, and I\'ll come find you if things don\'t pan out."

Tao Yu listened to Panda\'s untechnical pie-in-the-sky talk with no intention of engaging further.

If he needed to transport goods, he could do it himself; why involve someone else without a tangible benefit?

Perhaps ordinary Pioneers from the outer city would get excited about connecting with the Inner City, but having already encountered the Suns\' siblings, Tao Yu was indifferent to it.

If he truly needed to seek a \'patron,\' it had better be a worthy one...

Strapping on the seat belt in the truck\'s cab again, Tao Yu watched Panda leading the way on his motorbike, a wave of emotion stirred within him.

The first time he encountered Joseph and Wino from the Inner City, he was practically grovelling. Even his assassination of Joseph was a matter of opportune timing.

Now, even openly, he could deal with people from the Inner City in broad daylight.

In secret, he had already taken out several of them.

The Abyss was indeed a miraculous place...
