Chapter 65

After finishing her sentence, Yu Xunge sent over the things she had been neglecting to deal with.

Though these items were low-level, meant for stages 0 to 2, if she tossed them into the auction house, they could easily fetch six or seven hundred gold coins altogether.

Zhao Shuying had handled plenty of valuable items, some worth hundreds or even thousands of gold, but she didn’t see these as useless trash. On the contrary, they were exactly what was needed right now.

After handing over several boxes of weapons to a colleague nearby, she sent something to Yu Xunge. The others in the conference room had no objections; gold always shines, and Yu Xunge’s brilliance was impossible to hide. Moreover, her friendly attitude towards the Special Affairs Bureau meant they naturally wanted to reciprocate.

Yu Xunge looked at the tiny dragon-shaped coin in her hand—【Huaxia Contribution Point】.

It was hard to tell what material it was made of, but it was clearly not something that could be easily replicated. She poured out the dragon-shaped coins from her cloth bag, totaling five.

She had heard of these in her previous life but had never seen them. They were said to be used as currency within official circles. Legendary-grade or higher equipment and items released by the official team could only be bid on with contribution points, not gold coins, and contribution points were non-transferable, with records kept internally.

It was rumored that the Su family had collaborated with the officials several times, but when they tried to buy good items with gold, they found they couldn’t. Eventually, they stopped cooperating, and Yu Xunhuan had complained a few times, saying the Special Affairs Bureau lacked vision.

An organization that was complained about by Yu Xunhuan must be a good one.

Though she didn’t know how valuable these coins were, Yu Xunge decided to keep them safe.

She then pulled out several large storage boxes filled with items to boost cooking proficiency, most rated around 85 points. They wouldn’t double the effects of consumption or increase attribute points, and they wouldn’t sell for much either. People from Zelan Star rarely went to the auction house to buy food; there were plenty of restaurants in the main city.

As for the real world, there was even less need. People didn’t have much money, and even if they did, they would rather buy potions or equipment.

She first picked out the items she and her cat liked, then sent the rest to Zhao Shuying.

【Chapter 84: The Su Family is My ATM】

【Yu Xunge】: 【Crispy Spider Legs】【Tender Wolf Chops】【Mysterious Stew】【Crispy Chicken Wings】【Dreamy Ale】【Mixed Meat Stew】

【Zhao Shuying】: ?

【Yu Xunge】: I sent everything to you.

Zhao Shuying had already received it. She looked at the seven large storage boxes, and a nearby staff member quickly counted them up—1,258 dishes, with various attributes included. She fell silent.

【Zhao Shuying】: I’m a senior special envoy of the Special Affairs Bureau, not a grocery store.

【Yu Xunge】: Oh, you don’t want them? Then send them back.

Yu Xunge didn’t receive a return; instead, she got three dragon-shaped coins.

As always, they welcomed strategic resources that could be obtained without using game currency.

They wouldn’t overlook these small transactions just because they were training professionals capable of producing energy-based equipment.

In fact, there were dozens of trading partners like Yu Xunge, some with 【Leatherworking】, some with 【Sewing】. With over a thousand from here and another thousand from there, the total was quite considerable, potentially saving tens of thousands of gold.

Moreover, they weren’t deceiving these people; the dragon-shaped coins genuinely represented the official stance. It wasn’t just empty promises; in the future, when good things came along, these individuals would be prioritized over internal personnel.

Ever since selling a thousand belts to the Su family, Yu Xunge had been closely monitoring their movements.

Not only had she placed the undead little spiders in the Su family’s estate, but she had also put them in Yu Xunhuan’s studio and car.

Though she didn’t know how detailed the Su family’s detection skills or items were, the spiders were small, and the information above their heads was tiny—about the size of the smallest row of E on a vision chart. Hidden in a corner, they were practically invisible.

Moreover, Yu Xunge’s Soros pocket watch could modify personal panel information. This manipulation belonged to her, so she could naturally fix it.

Thus, the information for these undead little spiders became: 【Corrupted Little Spider】 Health: 1/1 (Controller: Yu Xunhuan).

If they were discovered, it would just be a surprise she left for Yu Xunhuan.

On January 24th, the third day since the game’s arrival, the entire Blue Star had undergone earth-shattering changes.

Everyone seemed to be in a hurry, and all conversations revolved around the game. Even if you stepped out for breakfast, the topics you’d hear were “Divine Gifts,” “Games,” “Superpowers,” “Equipment”...

The dawn of a new century meant a major reshuffle; getting ahead meant soaring to great heights, while falling behind could mean never catching up.

In fact, even before the second internal test, not just the Su family but many families had begun preparing, acquiring game-related items. However, at that time, players were still scarce, most were hiding, afraid to show themselves. Even the Su family had only found a few hundred, and not many were willing to trade.

After the third internal test, these families ramped up their efforts, recruiting players, gathering information, and so on...

But a large ship is hard to turn; handling industries and merely going through the motions of procedures wasn’t something that could be done in a few months. Moreover, those capable of taking over were all well-informed about the impending changes. Those who were unaware of such news lacked the ability to take over the Su family’s assets.

It was quite awkward.

The Su family had a solid foundation. When they were robbed of over four thousand gold bricks, it was still less than half of their reserves, which was enough for them to develop for quite some time. However, whether it was the transactions of belts and potions or Yu Xunge’s dealings with the Special Affairs Bureau, they didn’t accept cash transactions, only gold. This made the Su family realize the importance of gold.

In the past half month, they had not only used a large amount of liquid funds to acquire gold but had also directly discounted and sold some industries, only accepting gold or equipment in exchange. Right now, a hundred pieces of green gear could be traded for a property owned by the Su family in S City.

From the undead little spiders, Yu Xunge heard Su Langfeng instructing Su Baibo to be cautious of hidden enemies. “You go personally for this batch of gold, but privately bring 20 people with you. Each of you take a portion and spread out. Don’t gather together; we don’t want to be taken out all at once.”

She couldn’t help but admire his caution.

She was planning to take them all out in one go; even Su Baibo, she was confident she could kill directly.

After hearing this news, Yu Xunge canceled all her plans for the day. She stayed at home, brewing potions while keeping an eye on the little spiders’ movements in her mind. Upon hearing Su Langfeng’s arrangements, she directly controlled the little spider to leave the Su family’s main building and hide in the grass.

The Su family had this advantage: their employee training was excellent. When the young master was about to leave, the driver was already waiting outside.

Otherwise, would Su Baibo stand at the door waiting for a ride like he was calling for a taxi?

Upon seeing the car, the little spider crawled into the middle one.

At the same time, the one hidden in Yu Xunhuan’s car also crawled out and randomly chose a car to climb into.

Yu Xunge couldn’t be sure which car Su Baibo would take, but since the gold would be transported in batches, it didn’t matter who she picked.

Only shady deals would be made in remote corners at night.

The Su family’s gold exchange was as lively as it could be, right in the city center at the Su family’s restaurant, during the busiest time of day.

At noon on the 24th, Yu Xunge entered the safe house, took out a wooden bow, and softly shot five arrows into a corner. Then, using her disguise skill, she transformed into a frail old woman. Considering that a direct confrontation was likely today, she also used the Soros pocket watch’s disguise function to change her ID to Wang Er.

After casting the Illusion Body spell, she shifted her phantom to the back kitchen of the Su family’s restaurant in S City.

Su Baibo and his group were discussing matters on the second floor.

With people coming and going here, even without anyone detecting them, the little spiders could easily be stepped on. It was better to stay in the car and continue monitoring their movements, ideally hitching a ride back to the Su family.

Yu Xunge didn’t go upstairs; instead, she headed to the garage, standing by the designated parking spots for Su Baibo’s group, patiently waiting, occasionally sipping mana potions or coffee to replenish her mana and maintain the Illusion Body spell.

Half an hour later, Su Baibo and his entourage came down.

Yu Xunge was taken aback; there were so many people, it looked like a concert just ended, a dense crowd surrounding Su Baibo.

Weren’t there only 17 players when they left?

Nearly a hundred people crowded around Su Baibo as they entered the parking lot.

She was stunned.

How much gold were they exchanging?

The group spread out in the underground garage, with every four people getting into one car. This setup suggested they were planning to drive a convoy out of the garage.

They were dispersed but not completely separated; if one car ran into trouble, the others could quickly converge, and those attacking wouldn’t be able to immediately determine who had the gold.

Despite Su Baibo deploying smoke bombs, she had lived again, recognizing two of his trusted aides among them. They were also from the original 17 players who had set out from the estate, and they were walking on the outer edge, heading towards two adjacent cars.

【Chapter 85: She Doesn’t Lack Money, But She Lacks Morality】

Just as they were about to split up, Yu Xunge walked up to the two and suddenly pulled out a 【Delicate Pistol】, shooting one of them in the temple.

Before coming, she had accumulated five normal attack hits in the safe house; this was her seventh shot, and with her sharpshooter talent, it was bound to be a critical hit.
