Chapter 357: A Penny Can Make a Hero Fall
"Mr. Shi Zhen, this place has a good environment for luxury houses. You know that island ships are short of land. We are an ecological fleet, so the available land is really precious. This place is the best house we can find. It is located on the main island, close to the mountains and the sea, and it is convenient for ships to travel. Although the area is not very large, the yard is just in front, but this is indeed the best single-family house we have."
The staff introduced the best house they had to Xiao Yun with a diligent look.
Xiao Yun looked around. It was not wrong to say that it was close to the mountains and the sea. There were artificial and imitation mountains, and bionic ecology was just like this. Compared with the scenery of the Klein mansion, it was too bad. The yard was less than half the size of a basketball court, and the house was probably a three-story single-family building with a basement. There was nothing else.
There was definitely no problem with normal living, but for Xiao Yun, this place was too small. It was impossible for Steve and the others to set up tents outside, right? If you want to exploit, there is no such exploitation method.
"This place is already very good." Shirley walked around and looked around, then came to Xiao Yun with her hands behind her back: "Ecological fleets are like this, and all kinds of restrictions that affect the environment and ecology are very large."
"As long as you are satisfied." Xiao Yun smiled and nodded, and handed his card directly to the real estate agent, and said calmly: "Swipe the card!"
The staff happily took the card and quickly used the device on his body to swipe it. The first swipe was a little strange, and the second time he looked at Xiao Yun in confusion. After the third swipe, the staff member respectfully handed the card to Xiao Yun with both hands: "Mr. Shi Zhen, there is not enough money in your card."
"Not enough?" Xiao Yun looked incredulous: "No way, how much is this house? I don't have enough money in it? Can I give you a discount?"
The staff was also a little helpless: "Yes, Mr. Shi Zhen, If you don't have enough money, you can give me a discount, but..."
Xiao Yun cursed angrily: "Damn, Catherine is so stingy. The money she gave me is not even enough to buy a house."
"Puff." Shirley Lu couldn't help laughing beside him. She covered her mouth and took out her card and handed it to the other party: "Use mine."
Xiao Yun didn't feel embarrassed. After taking back his card, he sighed: "There are people speculating on real estate everywhere. This place is much worse than my super manor."
Shirley Lu laughed: "Oh, someone said he would buy me a house, but now it has become me buying a house for you."
"Don't care about these details. Yours is mine, and mine is yours. Just treat this little money as a drop of water. When my people come, I will have money." Xiao Yun waved his hand without caring at all, but immediately stared at her with his eyes. stared at the property staff: "I want the one next door too, two sets for a big break, or I'll break yours!"
The staff shuddered at Xiao Yun's beast-like gaze and said quickly: "I will give you the highest discount within my authority, Mr. Shi Zhen."
"That's right." Xiao Yun stuffed his card over again: "Swipe together."
Steve opened his mouth at the back, but seeing Xiao Yun so interested, he didn't know how to start. But when he thought about the living problems in the next half month, Steve had to remind him: "Boss, that card contains all our money. If you do this, we will have no money to eat for the next month."
Shirley Lu couldn't help but cover her stomach and mouth and laughed out loud: "Haha, hahaha, Shi Zhen, Xiao Yun , you are so funny, it's okay, sister will support you, hahaha."
"Damn." Xiao Yun took out his phone indignantly, found Catherine's contact information and called her. When the call was connected, he spoke directly: "Manager Catherine, you took such a big trophy from me but the money you gave me is not enough for me to buy a house. Isn't it too much? What? Where is the house? Did you get cheated? You are cheating me to death, brother, where is this..."
Xiao Yun was stunned when he heard the beeping in his ear, and looked at Shirley Lu: "What do you mean she hung up on me?"
Shirley Lu couldn't hold it anymore at this time. She kept laughing with her head against Xiao Yun's chest. She felt like she was going to die of laughter. She felt that she had never encountered such a funny thing: "Haha, are you really a rich man? I can't do it anymore. Please don't be funny anymore. "
Xiao Yun called Catherine again, and before the other party could speak, he hurriedly said: "Don't hang up in a hurry, I have no money on me. My people will not be back for at least a month. Introduce me a way to make money. Military contractor work is also fine. Otherwise, you can lend me some money first... How much... I don't have any concept of money. Is that 10 million a lot for you? Don't hang up! At least you have to let me have food to eat in the next month!"
Xiao Yun hung up the phone and sighed. Steve asked: "Boss, did you borrow it?"
Xiao Yun gritted his teeth and said: "She said she would give us a meal card to eat as much as we want without paying. Damn it, when did I, Shi Zhen Xiao Yun, use a meal card to eat! Don't find me a job!"
Steve said indifferently: "I think it's okay. Anyway, I have eaten in the cafeteria for a long time."
Xiao Yun waved his hand: "Go and find out what is valuable, how much is a gem as big as a pigeon worth, and what color is the most valuable. "
Shirley Lu reminded: "Gems are not as valuable as they used to be, unless they are rare treasures and hard to find. "
Xiao Yun gestured to Steve again: "Go and ask how much a gem as big as a basketball is worth, and sell it for whatever it's worth."
Shirley's expression suddenly became strange: "You still have a gem as big as a basketball? What kind of gem is it?"
"I'll show it to you then." Xiao Yun pondered and said, "I have to look for it too."
The staff acted as if they had heard nothing and hurriedly swiped their cards to go through the formalities. In a short time, the ownership of the two houses became Xiao Yun's. He said goodbye to Xiao Yun and ran away quickly.
After the outsider left, Xiao Yun nodded towards Steve, who raised his hand and made a gesture, and the door of the house was automatically pushed open without wind.
Shirley Lu suddenly got into Xiao Yun's arms, pointed in the direction of the door and asked with some fear: "Did the door open by itself?"
"It's nothing, it's just optical camouflage technology." Xiao Yun took Shirley Lu and walked directly into the place where he would stay temporarily. Now Xiao Yun found another praiseworthy thing about this house, that is, you don't need to prepare anything when you move in with your bags. .
"Optical camouflage?" Shirley Lu was pulled into the room by Xiao Yun in a daze and sat down. After a while, several figures appeared out of nowhere in the living room of the room.
Shirley was surprised by the sudden appearance of several people wearing combat uniforms and helmets who looked like future warriors.
Several people took off their helmets to reveal their faces, and said to Xiao Yun: "BOSS, both sides have simply checked and everything is normal."
Shirley Lu turned her head and looked at Xiao Yun in disbelief, her eyes a little confused: "Your people? Why do you have such equipment? Who are you?"
"How can a black businessman with no ability to protect himself live so comfortably and run away from Galaxy unharmed? The equipment they are wearing is the product of my industry, individual combat suits."
Xiao Yun explained to Shirley Lu and said to everyone: "Go live next door and investigate the surrounding environment first."
Steve and the others nodded, put on their helmets and disappeared again. Steve also turned and left the room.
Seeing everyone's ability to act and execute, Shirley Lu suddenly looked at Xiao Yun with some suspicion: "Are you really just a black marketeer? Who are you?"
"alien."
Shirley rolled her eyes: "Are you an idiot? Or do you think I am an idiot?"
Xiao Yun sighed: "Okay, okay, actually, I am a special investigator from the new unified central department."
Shirley was surprised: "Really? Is there something wrong with Galaxy? Are you here to investigate the disappearance of the ship group? Is the disappearance of the Galaxy ship group related to the 25th ship group?"
Xiao Yun said with a serious face: "It's not convenient to tell you during the ongoing investigation. Don't tell anyone else about our identities except you, but since you are my woman, don't worry, I will definitely wait until there are any results." I told you.”
Shirley took a breath and quickly covered her mouth and nodded her head, but she asked worriedly as if she had thought of something: "Does it matter if your identity is known to me now?"
Xiao Yun made an expression that you know what to do with Shirley: "It doesn't matter, I am the biggest in this investigation team. In this chaotic world, various incidents occur one after another. I am a black businessman who looks dissolute on the outside, but in fact... It’s the super investigator Shizhen Xiaoyun, and everything can’t be hidden from our investigation. This incident is the case of the disappearance of the Galaxy fleet, that’s it.”
Shirley Lou nodded heavily: "Believe me, I will never tell others."
"Of course I believe you." Xiao Yun lifted Shirley's chin with a smile and said with a smile: "We are a family after all. I don't believe you can trust anyone else, right? From today on, this is our home. , do you want to see how to arrange it?”
Shirley Lu nodded as if she was a little frightened: "Then if you have something to do, you should go ahead and I'll take a look in the house."
Shirley Lu left in three steps and turned around. Every time she turned around, she could see Xiao Yun smiling strangely. She shook her head to get all these messy things out of her head and went upstairs to take a look.
Xiao Yun got up and left for the basement. He opened the passage and went to World Diameter 0 where he found Gina who didn't know what he was doing.
Seeing Xiao Yun appear again, Gina couldn't help but start to complain: "Why do I feel like you are not going to a different world at all? Are you going for an outing? Aren't you tired when you come back soon?"
"It's been a whole day over there." Xiao Yun sat down and started to pick up the fruit on the table. While eating, he said: "Hurry up and ask Leonardo to give me something valuable, a normal luxury. For example, ask him if he has a rare gem as big as a basketball.”
Gina asked: "Do you want gold? There is still a lot of gold in the warehouse."
Xiao Yun said: "It's already the age of universe development and we can return the gold."
Gina said: "But even in the age of the universe, gold is still one of the most valuable basic elements for ordinary people."
"Then be prepared."
Gina shook his head and started to make arrangements on the phone. After asking Leonardo, Gina hung up the phone and said to Xiao Yun: "He has a rare gem. Currently, there is only one place where this gem is found. It has no industrial value but is very beautiful. It will show colorful light when exposed to direct sunlight. It will also show different colors and lusters according to different lighting conditions. It is not as big as a basketball but as big as an egg. There are also some processed round pearl-sized gems."
"Tell him to send it over quickly. I have something else to do." Xiao Yun ate the fruit and pointed at the things on the table and said, "Pack it up for me. I'll go to World No. 2 first."
Gina nodded and watched Xiao Yun leave with a mouth full. He looked at the mess Xiao Yun had created and sneered, "Last time you didn't teach me a lesson after eating. Last time it was for detoxification, this time you'll suffocate to death."
When Xiao Yun arrived in World No. 2, he immediately found the medical team here and lay in the treatment cabin to start a full-body examination. After he was 100% sure that there was no problem, he returned from there, took the things Gina had prepared, pushed an electric cart and returned to World No. 4.
A cart of gold and a box of alien fruits were thrown in the basement, and he came out of the basement with egg-sized fantasy gems and a bag of much smaller fantasy gems.
When he came back to the first floor and came to the living room, he saw Shirley and Grace gathered together to discuss something seriously, and his footsteps attracted their attention and they turned their heads at the same time.
Shirley stretched out her hand to push her hair behind her ears, and her serious look was instantly broken. She smiled gently and beautifully at Xiao Yun: "Are you done? Are you hungry? I asked Grace to bring a lot of food for everyone. Your portion is in the refrigerator."
"Not hungry." Xiao Yun shook his head and greeted Grace: "Grace, have you eaten?"
"Thank you Mr. Shi Zhen for your concern. I have already eaten." Grace said speechlessly: "I just heard that Mr. Shi Zhen, all your money has been used to buy a house, and even most of the money for the house was paid by Shirley. Mr. Shi Zhen, you are really too much. Although you two have We are together, but Shirley Lu hasn't married you after all."
"It's only a matter of time. How about Shirley Lu Shizhen Xiao Nomu? Besides, I just don't have any cash." Xiao Yun came over and squeezed Shirley Lu to sit down, put the egg-sized gem on the table, and raised his chin towards Grace: "Look at what this is. It can show colorful light under the sunlight. It will show different brilliance under different light and environment. It's a super gem the size of an egg. It's super rare. There are not many fantasy gems in the whole universe. This thing should be valuable. I still have some self-defense items on me. Don't underestimate me."
