Chapter 65: Chapter 65: Let’s Have a Long-Distance Inter-City Event
Ye Nai added the friend through the business card, adding Director Zhuo Yonglin.
Director Zhuo was very direct, calculating the quote and the tax deduction for Ye Nai.
[The original price of the two cars was nearly 6 million. After a 30% discount, the total price was just over 4 million. With a tax deduction of 30% for amounts between 100 and 500 million, you will end up with over 2.8 million. Is that okay?]
[That’s fine.]
An easy 2.8 million, there was no reason for Ye Nai not to agree, and she did not bargain at all.
[Which account should the money be transferred to?]
...
[Could you transfer it to my Awakener account, please?]
[That’s the most convenient for us. It will be in your account within two days, please check for it.]
[Okay.]
[Pleasure doing business, contact directly for such big items in the future.]
[Do you have any specific categories in mind?]
[Like this car, large quantities of mutant beast at, hides, etc., high value or large quantity. For example, the frozen goods you helped us transport before. If you can secure good quality goods, it should at least be one-third the volu of that previous ti.]
[OK~]
Ye Nai put down her phone and glanced at the pile of mutant beast at in the space. There was so much at — not just daily, but now even a glance made her feel sick of it; she hadn’t bought at from Brother Peng in a long while. She thought maybe she’d save up more and sell it to Director Zhuo later.
The third day, Ye Nai’s Awakener account received two paynts: one from the car sale, and the other an informant reward concerning the cult.
The Heavenly Taoist branch in Anyuan City was taken down. The intelligence was accurate, and the action swift. The rewards from the superiors ca quickly; everyone involved got a share, including her.
This money further solidified Ye Nai’s resolve to use herself as bait to lure enemies.
Whether rapist or cult mbers, each one of them was like a walking treasure trove, not taking advantage felt like a waste.
She switched to the task reception page, scrolling through one by one. There were solo players looking for teams and teams looking for temps. Locations followed each listing, distributed across various danger zones in the city. She scrolled through over a hundred listings; except for danger zone 1, the other six zones were very active.
The teams were mostly for hunting mutant beasts or mutant plants. The Secret Realm was richest in such resources, and these teams even had a ranking number listed, which linked to the city’s Awakener team rankings, helping to identify teams by number.
This made her reflect on her previous impulsiveness. How could she have agreed after seeing a full paynt of 500,000, without even checking the team’s ranking beforehand?
But then again, if she hadn’t acted impulsively, she wouldn’t have had the gains she had now, over 200,000, wasn’t that money?
Ye Nai stood up, pocketed her phone, put on a hat and mask, and went downstairs to pick up a parcel, her dical textbooks had arrived.
She stayed ho for ten days under the guise of recovering, seriously studying online; it was brain-swelling but very rewarding.
All her daily necessities were ordered via delivery; going downstairs to throw away trash or pick up parcels counted as physical activity.
The face in the mirror had finally reached the point where it wouldn’t scare passersby on the street.
She tidied up and left for training.
Her bodily injuries had healed, as those would affect her movents, leaving only a few on her face that looked like spots at a glance, but anyone who knew understood what they really were.
The mont she appeared, a group of coaches surrounded her. They didn’t ask what she had encountered, just how many people she fought with and whether she won.
After laughing, they seriously went through the fighting process with her, breaking down the moves, and discussed how she should dodge and counter if she encountered sothing similar again.
After two consecutive sessions of combat training, Ye Nai ca out of the training hall, wincing and rubbing her sore arms, and browsed through her phone for a while deciding which restaurant to order takeout from.
A notification ding popped up on the phone, the Awakener had a new ssage.
Upon checking, big things were happening in dangerous zone 5, they wanted to rent her 1900 cubic ters of space to retrieve autumn and winter supplies from Anyuan City, a round trip of about 5 days.
However, her business card stated 1000 cubic ters, so she needed to change this number to ‘negotiable’ so that the employer could manually enter the required volu, and the system would then automatically calculate the fee; otherwise, paynt couldn’t even be made.
Ye Nai made the adjustnt accordingly, and received the deposit imdiately; she was to set out tomorrow, led by Captain Niu “Old Niuniu” from her captains’ group.
She imdiately contacted Captain Niu, and they agreed to et early tomorrow morning. She went ho to pack, gathering the ssy items in her space together to clear out 1900 cubic ters.
Since city tasks provided accommodations, she stowed the outdoor gear in the spare bedroom, clearing the ground for other items not so easily removed, including those space-consuming chunks of Mutant Beast at.
Early the next morning at seven, Ye Nai went downstairs to et with Captain Niu, who had only brought two vehicles. Ye Nai rode in the front vehicle with him, while the logistical team mbers were on the vehicle behind.
“Captain Niu, is the road easy to travel?”
“Not necessarily, if there’s no traffic jam, we could arrive by three in the afternoon.”
“There are still traffic jams?”
“Yes, terrain limits prevent building very wide roads, there are only six lanes in two directions, ergency lanes can’t be occupied, one lane is taken up by truck fleets, other vehicles can only use the remaining lanes, what do you think, will it be congested or not?”
“Alright, got it.”
Ye Nai sat alone in the backseat, she opened her phone to a video series explaining vintage detective cases, amounting to several hundred episodes. She didn’t watch, only listened to pass the ti.
The two in the front heard the sound and asked her to play it through the speakers louder so that they could listen together, to prevent dozing off while driving a long distance.
“Want so dried at? I roasted it myself.”
Ye Nai shared a pack of homade spicy dried at, roasted very dry, which she liked because of its crunchy texture, particularly good for grinding teeth.
Captain Niu took it and divided it with the driver, each slowly enjoying their share.
Midway through, they got stuck in a small, half-hour traffic jam and when they reached the military supply transit warehouse’s affiliated hotel on the outskirts of Anyuan City, it was already past four in the afternoon—fortunately still within the expected tifra.
When getting out of the car, Ye Nai noticed that Captain Niu still had half a pack of the dried at in his hand.
“Uh, does the dried at not taste good?”
“No, it’s pretty tasty and it even helps stave off sleepiness,” Captain Niu picked at his teeth, “I got at strands stuck in my teeth, been picking at it the whole trip, couldn’t get it out.”
“You should have asked —I brought toothpicks.”
Ye Nai hurriedly handed them toothpicks, Captain Niu with a toothpick in his mouth, tucked that half pack of dried at into his pocket.
“I’ll continue eating it on the way back.”
Everyone checked into the hotel and the logistical team started working, arranging today’s preparations for retrieving the goods, planning to count stock in the warehouse tomorrow. Including the travel days, they needed to complete it all within three days.
Everyone was in high spirits, without the urgent pressure of rushing the work.
“This ti it’s easy, in the past they had to send a large convoy to haul the goods, three days were never enough, just loading the goods was exhausting.”
“Co on, let’s see what’s for dinner at the hotel.”
The team mbers not busy started looking for food. Ye Nai followed them to the restaurant to check today’s nu and found it quite satisfactory, but it was still early, so she went back to her room to rest a bit before heading down when it was alti.
It’s not that she didn’t want to wander the streets for local food, but this area was dedicated to military supply storage, requiring a further drive with navigation to find the nearest popular night market.
Forget it, she was already tired.
