"... You are very arrogant."

The representative sighed deeply, then said:

"But you certainly have the capital to be arrogant."

"Alright, is this the last batch of goods?"

"The total value is 14,200 grams of Gold. Do you want Gold, or do you want goods?"

"I can give you a suggestion; it’s best to take the Gold."

"Because after this war, you are severely lacking basic supplies, like bullets and shells."

"And these things will be much cheaper to buy from the open market than from us."

"Understood. Then we want Gold."

Chen Jian nodded decisively and then said:

"But we have another condition."

"What condition?"

The representative asked curiously, and Chen Jian shook his head and replied:

"I’ll talk to Wang Lizhi about it. You just give us our Gold first."

"... So, you’re saying that condition will not be deducted from the price of this transaction?"

"Of course, it’s an additional condition."

Chen Jian replied matter-of-factly.

"... Alright. I only handle my responsibilities."

The representative did not hesitate much and finally nodded in agreement.

Chen Jian was also satisfied as he accepted the Gold that had been carefully weighed, and loaded the selected supplies onto the cat cart with the pull-back trailer.

These items were not actually rare.

Mainly ammunition, but it was only over a thousand rounds of 7.62mm caliber bullets, 41 mortar shells, two 30mm caliber automatic grenade shells, six rocket launchers, and over a dozen 35mm grenades.

The only slightly "unique" weapon was that super-large caliber single-shot rifle modified from an aircraft cannon barrel.

Chen Jian originally wanted to sell this item, but after thinking it over, he decided it would be better to transport it back to Yellow Stone City and use it as a fixed gun emplacement.

Thus, he placed a transfer order with the Ring Chamber of Commerce and handed over this "lifting gun" to Huang Yu for disposal.

Once everything was ready, the group left Anqing City.

The next stop on their route should have been Tongling City, but Chen Jian was not in a hurry to set off.

They made a show of leaving, then quietly circled back to the Anqing Ruins.

There they waited for 12 hours, and finally, Chen Jian got what he was waiting for.

It was a squad that was evidently armed with automatic firepower, which in this post-apocalyptic world was considered well-equipped.

A squad that appeared at the Air Force Tenth Division Base.

At this moment, his suspicions were confirmed.

The Ring Chamber of Commerce’s goal was never the Anqing Ruins, nor the Terror Demon within the Anqing Ruins.

What they were after was the item inside the Air Force Tenth Division Base!

They were indeed using their squad.

But unfortunately, he was still a step ahead of them.

Chen Jian gave Shen Yue a look, the latter understood immediately, and started calling Wang Lizhi on the radio using a specific frequency.

After a brief silence, his headset crackled with Wang Lizhi’s response.

"Mr. Chen, I’m here."

"You’re calling me at this time, probably because you’ve already seen us."

"Perhaps your drone is hovering over us, right?"

"Congratulations, you’ve even learned to pre-empt the answer."

Chen Jian did not deny it, but continued, saying:

"The Terror Demon is a decoy. Huadu’s plan... let’s just say they had the misfortune of running into it."

"They just happened to be in your way."

"So, what exactly are you looking for there?"

"... This information is not within the scope of our transaction."

Wang Lizhi’s tone was somewhat cold, but immediately as if realizing he was actually the passive one, he softened his tone and continued:

"... What I mean is, there’s nothing here that would interest you."

"You should know, we have strictly followed the contract and even provided additional help."

"We have no qualms about this transaction."

"... Then your standard of having no qualms is shockingly low."

Chen Jian clicked his tongue twice, shook his head, and said:

"Don’t talk nonsense."

"I just want to ask you one question right now."

"FX0962045, what is it?"

Silence.

After a long silence, the radio suddenly carried Wang Lizhi’s response once more.

He spoke in a serious tone:

"You have already been underground, haven’t you?"

"This is the passage you blew up."

"We won’t hold you accountable, but I hope, no matter what information you obtain, you will share it with us."

"If you want to know what this code represents... in fact, we also want to know."

"That’s why we are entering the underground, for this reason, I have no need to hide this from you."

"I hope you also won’t----"

"Stop talking nonsense."

Chen Jian interrupted Wang Lizhi and once again asked:

"What does FX0962045 represent?"

This time, Wang Lizhi didn’t make Chen Jian wait long.

He answered:

"We don’t know what 096 represents, but we know 2045 represents time."

"And FX stands for ’Fu Xi’.’’

"The Fu Xi Project."
