Lu Xiaofang does not have the authority to go to the Upper City District, and even if she did, she could not go.
If we disturb those who shouldn't be disturbed, it would be a greater loss than gain.
She was selling some while simultaneously looking to buy others.
Beast meat and Awakening Stone Fragment
Prices fluctuated rapidly, driving merchants to near madness.
Lu Xiaofang's actions left the villagers of Liu Family Village completely dumbfounded.
This is what city people are like.
That's amazing!
The simple villagers had never seen anything like this before. Fortunately, their task was to load the goods... Lu Xiaofang put the Awakening Stone Fragment he had purchased back into their Peddler's Box one by one, and worked for 24 hours straight.
A race against time in 24 hours.
Lu Xiaofang exceeded her target, acquiring a total of 20,000 Awakening Stone Fragment in the shortest possible time, doubling her goal.
Early in the morning, Lu Xiaofang grabbed her younger sister's hand and ran outside. Lu Xiaochu, still half asleep, asked, "What are we doing? Where are we going?"
Lu Xiaofang didn't even turn his head. "Run for your life."
She had to escape, she had to escape quickly.
When someone traced her merchant ID, they discovered that she had sold 11,000 units of fresh beast meat and acquired 20,000 Awakening Stone Fragment in a single day...
I'm afraid even major organizations like Han-Tang, New Han-Tang, Ten Nations Technology, and the Day After Tomorrow Society would have to invite her for tea.
Startled, Lu Xiaochu asked, "What... what did you do wrong?"
Lu Xiaofang: "Let's talk on the way!"
Lu Xiaochu wanted to ask more, but when he saw a row of strong men carrying Peddler's Box, he immediately shut up.
Her face turned deathly pale; she knew her sister had gotten herself into serious trouble this time!
Chapter 96
Lu Xiaofang had no time to explain; he grabbed his sister and ran.
Now that she's worth millions, she looks down on the pots and pans at home. Lu Xiaochu thinks it's a sign of impending doom and that he's in danger of losing his life, so he has no intention of cleaning up his belongings.
As they left the city, Lu Xiaofang remained vigilant, keeping alert throughout. With her keen intuition and business acumen, she skillfully avoided danger and arrived safely at Test Site 49. They could already see the village in the distance.
The tense merchant caravan relaxed slightly, Er Ying suddenly spoke up, "Someone's here!" She instantly transformed into Hunter, her beast ears trembling, her hearing enhanced nearly tenfold.
No clue escapes her ears; she can pinpoint locations like a bat.
Liu Huli's hearing wasn't as good as Er Ying's, but his explosive power was astonishing. At this moment, his hand transformed into a beast, its power poised to be unleashed. "An intruder?"
Er Ying's ears twitched slightly. "A 20-person squad, probably an outpost patrol, all of them are Awakened."
Lu Xiaofang gasped, "It's the Three Kills Gang!"
Did they rush as fast as they could but still miss it?
What should we do now?
They were carrying 20,000 Awakening Stone Fragment —their previous Peddler's Box were no longer enough, so she decided to buy ordinary chests to avoid another trip, which was too risky.
The Peddler's Box given by the big boss can conceal supplies, so the patrol team's scouts definitely won't be able to detect them. But these ordinary chests... if they get any closer, they'll definitely be discovered.
So many Awakening Stone Fragment, they're going to go crazy!
Although the merchant team was led and protected by Er Ying and Liu Huli, the guard team only had six or seven people. The remaining merchants and the Xiaochu had virtually no fighting power. How could they possibly defeat this 20-person patrol team?
Moreover, this is just a small outpost; the main force of the Three Kills Gang may have already been lying in ambush.
Once the outpost team detects this terrifying number of Awakening Stone Fragment... they'll probably mobilize their entire force in no time, and these dozen or so of them won't be able to withstand it.
"Don't act yet." Lu Xiaofang didn't dare use her personal terminal. These devices were restricted, and if the Three Kills Gang Lu Xiaofang had interception equipment, using her personal terminal would only expose her whereabouts. She lowered her voice and said, "Contact Madam Xiao using internal communications and ask about the situation."
Er Ying didn't move; she kept a close eye on the enemy squad's movements. The task of making contact was handed over to Liu Huli, who replied, "Okay!"
Everyone huddled together, barely daring to breathe.
Just as they arrived at their doorstep,
The inability to return is truly distressing, especially since they are burdened with a huge fortune—these Awakening Stone Fragment are the only hope for protecting the village; otherwise, no matter how powerful the young lady is, she will be powerless to make a living.
Xiao Yunjie received Liu Huli's message. Her expression turned serious, and she immediately contacted Song Xiaozhu.
After informing them of the situation, Xiao Yunjie asked her husband to mobilize the Guard Team and also contacted Chen San —after the battle, Old Madam Hu's health was severely damaged, and many community affairs were entrusted to Chen San —so they were to be prepared.
Song Xiaozhu received the message first, then saw Xiao Yunjie. She arrived quickly, her forehead beaded with sweat, her voice slightly breathless. "Miss."
Song Xiaozhu was hunched over a table, writing and drawing, while Qiu Shuyu stood behind her, weapon in hand, ready for battle.
Tian Man, Luo Liuzi, and the Old Chen were all away, hoarding Raw Material to gather the most Raw Material in the shortest time possible. Only in this way could the village withstand a protracted war.
Song Xiaozhu: "Madam is here? Please wait for me a moment."
Xiao Yunjie was anxious, but she remained calm and didn't ask any more questions, only responding softly.
Under these special circumstances, the shop has temporarily suspended operations.
Downstairs, the shipping containers were stacked together to form a table about three meters long. At that moment, Song Xiaozhu was bending over on it, drawing something.
Xiao Yunjie knew that Song Xiaozhu wouldn't waste her time on something pointless; what she was drawing must be something very important.
Song Xiaozhu didn't make her wait outside, which meant she could see it. She looked up and glanced at it briefly, but her heart was immediately stirred.
map...
Liu Family Village... no, it's a map of the entire Test Site No. 49!
It wasn't just a rough location marker; it was detailed down to every street, every house in Liu Family Village, and even the ditches and ravines outside the village, showing both high and low points.
