Chapter 190 Xia Xiao Returns
Today is another very sumptuous dinner.
There was wine and meat, but the atmosphere at the table was not warm.
On the contrary, it's a bit dull.
"Jianren, what are you doing? I already told you I was leaving."
The main reason for the dullness came from Zhang Jian, who actually lowered his head and started crying.
"I know, but I just can't control it. We brothers have finally reunited, and now we have to be separated again after just a few days!" Zhang Jian said with a sob.
"You're so useless. It's not a farewell forever. We have drone communications and can keep in touch at any time. And after I take a trip, I will go back to Yun City. We all have cars, so it's convenient if we want to get together." Jingtian said, patting Zhang Jian on the shoulder.
Although he said it casually, looking at Zhang Jian's expression, he felt quite moved.
No matter what others think of Zhang Jian, even Jingtian knows that Zhang Jian's personality is sometimes very unpleasant.
But this does not affect the brotherhood between them.
Zhang Xiaoyi on the side also whispered to comfort Zhang Jian.
It took Zhang Jian a while to recover, but he soon got drunk again.
This time Zhang Jian was not completely drunk.
Because he didn't fall down directly like last time.
Instead, he started to act crazy while drunk and started to reminisce about the past while hugging Jingtian.
Jingtian simply let everyone else rest. He helped Zhang Jian outside and sat on the ground leaning against the Ares.
The two brothers chatted with each other, crying and laughing at the same time.
I don’t know how long it took, but Zhang Jian fell asleep leaning on Jingtian’s shoulder.
Jingtian was about to stand up when he suddenly raised his eyebrows and waved to someone not far away from him.
A black figure was fixed in place.
"Still want to sneak attack me? You are far from being good enough!"
Jingtian looked at him with contempt at first, then released the other party's restraints.
"You are such a freak. My stealth assassination skills are so to detect. How did you do it?"
A mechanical voice came from the hood of the black robe, and then a black shadow slowly came in front of Jingtian.
Who else could it be other than Xia Xiao who has disappeared for several days.
Jingtian smiled slightly, thinking that Xia Xiao was admiring him.
As for her doubts, Jingtian would not answer them.
In fact, Xia Xiao is really powerful. The only thing she can blame is that she appeared in Jingtian’s control area.
In other words, Jingtian had previously set up access permissions for her, otherwise she wouldn't even be able to enter the protection line.
"Where have you been these days?" Jingtian asked instead of answering.
"I'm just doing my job and collecting some crystal cores. It's your fault that you're such a shady businessman." Xia Xiao said.
The reason why Jingtian is said to be dark is naturally because of the Jinchuang powder. One gram of its weight requires a level five crystal core.
Jingtian shrugged and said if you think it’s too dark, you don’t have to buy it.
To be honest, this Jinchuang fan doesn't really make much money.
"By the way, I'm leaving tomorrow. What are your plans?" Jingtian carried Zhang Jian on his shoulders and walked towards the villa.
"Leaving? Are you going to find that Lan Ya?" Xia Xiao was obviously stunned for a moment, then asked.
"…I won't go there for now. I'll go to another base and then return to my lair."
At this time, Jingtian didn’t know whether he should go to City G.
But I must go to Hai City, and then return to Yun City to make other plans.
"Where is your lair?" Xia Xiao asked with a flash of eyes.
"Yun City."
Jingtian replied that there was nothing to hide.
"Yun City?"
Xia Xiao was behind Jingtian, her eyes narrowed slightly, obviously there was something wrong.
"What's wrong?" Jingtian heard Xia Xiao's confusion and asked casually.
"...It's okay. I've been there before the end of the world." Xia Xiao obviously hesitated for a moment before responding.
Jingtian curled his lips.
When they returned to the villa, everyone else had already gone to bed, only Zhang Xiaoyi was still waiting in the living room.
Seeing this, Jingtian felt a little satisfied with Zhang Xiaoyi.
At least this woman is very attentive to Zhang Jian.
After handing Zhang Jian over to Zhang Xiaoyi and taking him back to the room, Jingtian looked at Xia Xiao who was following behind him; "What are you going to do?"
"First, give me 50 grams of gold powder."
Xia Xiao took out a bag of crystal cores from her black robe and threw it to Jingtian.
"You're really in a hurry. You should save more before exchanging. Even if you exchange a little at a time like this, it won't be enough for you to do anything." Jingtian said as he opened the bag.
"I don't have so much space to put the crystal cores." Xia Xiao said.
Although the crystal cores are small in size, they are large in number. A few hundred are fine, but if there are more, you will have to carry a bag everywhere.
Jingtian understood that not everyone was like him, with the Ares and the dimensional space.
"Why are there still level three and four ones?" Jingtian checked the crystal cores. There were over a hundred of them, but not all of them were level five.
"Level 5 zombies are not easy to deal with. Can't we just use the proportion of levels 3 and 4?" Xia Xiao said, somewhat nervously.
If Jingtian really doesn't want to, there's nothing she can do.
Even if we go back to their dragon base and want to exchange low-level crystal cores for high-level ones, we can't exchange as many as we have.
Fortunately, Jingtian just asked casually.
After counting the number of crystal cores, Jingtian smiled.
According to Xia Xiao's exchange rate, he was definitely getting a good deal.
There are a total of thirty level 5 crystal cores in the bag.
There are twenty-five level 4 crystal cores and a total of one hundred and twenty-five level 3 crystal cores.
By this calculation, one level 5 star can replace five level 4 stars, and one level 4 star can replace five level 3 stars.
This calculation may feel confusing. The total number is calculated in energy points. If there are 50 level 5 crystal cores, it will be 10,000 energy points.
But now, the total is 12250 points.
"I've taken the crystal core, but I don't have any more gold powder. I need to refine it first. Or should I give it to you tomorrow morning?" Jingtian said to Xia Xiao.
Jingtian only had 30 grams of gold powder in his hand, and he was going to leave some for Zhang Jian and Feng Qiang before he left.
"I'm not sleepy. I'll wait for you."
Xia Xiao sat down on the sofa and said straightforwardly.
Jingtian was speechless. You’re not sleepy. I want to study the special rewards earlier!
Although he thought so in his mind, Jingtian was too lazy to talk nonsense with Xia Xiao, so he got up and walked upstairs.
Although the raw materials for the medicine are all in another villa.
But now Jingtian no longer needs to run over.
The security zone has been expanded to include the entire warehouse villa.
Entering the casting room, Jingtian directly converted the crystal core into energy points.
Then, 10,000 energy points and 5 kg of raw medicinal materials were consumed to synthesize 100 grams of gold powder.
Excluding the cost of raw materials, Jingtian made a net profit of 50 grams of Jinchuang powder from this transaction, and still had 2250 energy points left.
The total energy at this time is 22453 points.
After packaging the Jinchuang powder, Jingtian returned downstairs.
"I've given you 50 grams of Jinchuang powder. The deal is complete. If there's nothing else, I'll go back and rest." Jingtian threw the Jinchuang powder to Xia Xiao and said.
"Wait a minute, you haven't told me where you are going next." Xia Xiao asked after taking the Jinchuang powder.
