Devil Fruit of the City

ps: Well, there is only one update for something today, so it is released in advance.

………

"Could it be that the place you mentioned that the white obsidian was found is in the Golden Triangle area?" After listening, Tang Tianyou asked thoughtfully.

"That's not true." Zhao Feng shook his head, "It's just that the place where I found the white obsidian had to go through Liushui Town on the border. The people there are messy and it's really dangerous."

"Flowing Water Town?" Tang Tianyou looked at Zhao Feng.  Urban Devil Fruit 296

"Flowing Water Town, although it is close to our country, it does not belong to Huaxia Country, and even... it is a small town that does not belong to any country in the world. It belongs to a dark area where no one cares, and the residents in it are mostly ethnic minorities. Lord. To say that it is "chaotic" is to praise it, but in fact it has no law and order at all!" Zhao Feng's face was very serious.

In fact, there are still a few words that he has not said yet. That place is basically a place where bandits and desperadoes from all over the world gather. There is no law, no police, not even a law enforcement agency, and murders and fights happen almost every day. It was staged there, and if ordinary people went there, their skins would probably be ripped off.

Tang Tianyou frowned. He only knew that the border of Yun Province was in chaos, but he didn't expect it to become like this. Killing people was extremely common there.

However, just this point, Tang Tianyou didn't take it to heart at all. It was just a few thugs fighting fiercely. Compared with the bloodthirsty wars of tens of thousands in White Beard's memory, it was like children's play.

"Don't worry, I can handle these things with confidence." Tang Tianyou said indifferently.

"Brother Tianyou, it's nothing more than the chaos in Liushui Town. Although it's dark there, if you use money to open the way, those desperadoes will still give face, but..." Zhao Feng frowned, "I'm most worried about it. another point."

"another point?"

"That's right, although the place where I found the white sidian is not in the Golden Triangle area, it's not too far away." Zhao Feng looked at Tang Tianyou and said seriously, "There are often some desperadoes in that forest, even ruthless ones. The drug lords and warlords are haunted, armed with all kinds of extremely lethal weapons, if you are accidentally bumped into by them, I am afraid that even death is a luxury."

"This kind of thing should be very secret, how do you know?" Tang Tianyou asked curiously.

"How did you know?!" Zhao Feng smiled wryly, "Actually, I didn't know about this kind of thing, but when I accidentally obtained these three obsidian stones last time, I encountered such a dangerous situation."

"Last time?" Tang Tianyou looked at Zhao Feng. Judging by his tone, Zhao Feng's experience of obtaining these three obsidian stones seemed very unusual. Is there something hidden?

"Actually, this is not something to hide." After thinking for a while, Zhao Feng still said, "You also know that our family is in the jewelry business."

After listening, Tang Tianyou nodded, Zhao's jewelry is well-known throughout the country.

"But you also know that jade is a non-renewable resource. The more you dig it, the rarer it will become. Maybe one day you won't be able to find new sources of ore." Zhao Feng said.

The stock of jadeite is limited and non-renewable. The more it is mined, the less it is. The finished products are in the hands of consumers everywhere, and there are more and more new consumers. Therefore, in the face of the increasingly depleted mineral reserves, the supply of jade appears to be insufficient. up. Therefore, the price of emerald jade has been rising all the way, becoming more and more expensive.

According to "Shi Ya", the emerald stones weighing about 45 kilograms at the beginning of this century were worth about eleven pounds. There is no lack of essence in emerald stones, and the price was very expensive at that time, but compared with the seven or eight million US dollars for one kilogram of super-grade emerald at the beginning of the 21st century, it is nothing.

"Although the development situation of Zhao's jewelry is very good, the competition in the jewelry industry is too fierce. There are dozens of large jewelry companies all over the country, and there are countless private bosses. If you are not careful, you may be killed. The latecomers are pulled down." Zhao Feng said, "So, every step of the company's decision-making is the key."

"Among them... obtaining a large amount of jade raw materials is the key to the steady development of Zhao's jewelry!" Zhao Feng said seriously.

Tang Tianyou had a calm face, he knew that what Zhao Feng said next was the key.  Urban Devil Fruit 296

"So, at that time, I accepted the company's order to smuggle a batch of valuable jade wool into Myanmar." Zhao Feng said with a complex expression.

"Smuggling?" Tang Tianyou was surprised.

"It is said to be smuggling, but it is actually just a transaction." Zhao Feng smiled, "In fact, that batch of wool was a transaction between a Burmese warlord and our Zhao Jewelry. When it was shipped back to China, we had already handed over If the tariffs are met, otherwise this batch of goods will definitely not see the light.”

Tang Tianyou nodded. The more formal the company is, the more it pays attention to its own image and details. If it is not about the survival of the company, it will definitely not do things that will catch the competitors.

"However, I didn't expect at the time that something went wrong with the transaction that was supposed to be foolproof." Zhao Feng gritted his teeth, and said in a chilly tone, "There is a traitor in our company! He leaked the secret transaction location" Going out will cause a large number of desperadoes to want to come and eat black!"

"Secret location?" Tang Tianyou asked.

"The location of the secret transaction last time was Flowing Water Town, that no-nonsense area." Zhao Feng said with lingering fear, "That was the time when I was chased by those gangsters and almost died there!"

"During the hasty escape, I accidentally came to the place where the three obsidian stones were found, and then hid in a cave. I escaped their pursuit and luckily saved my life."

"So, I have always regarded those three gemstones as the lucky stones of my life. No matter how high the price is, I will never sell them."

"There is such a story." Tang Tianyou said with emotion.

"So, this section of the road is very dangerous, and I have sent people to search for that place, and there is no gain at all, so there is no need for you to take risks there." Zhao Feng tried his best to dissuade.

"I know." Tang Tianyou said with a smile. He knew that Zhao Feng had already sent people to search there, but they couldn't find anything, but what could this prove? It's always right to go and have a look.

"You know?!" Zhao Feng looked at Tang Tianyou, "Then why do you still insist on going? Could it be that you think your life is too long?!"

"How is it possible?" Tang Tianyou sneered, "Do you think I am the kind of fool who looks stupid, knowing the danger, but still rushing forward?"

"This..." Zhao Feng was choked for words, he didn't believe that a stone carving master would be an idiot, but the question came, why did Tang Tianyou still insist on going?

"The reason why I insisted on going after hearing what you said is because..." Tang Tianyou's eyes suddenly burst into a frightening light, sharp and condescending, with an incomparably strong self-confidence faintly forming a strange aura Condensed by his side, "I have the certainty that nothing will happen to me."

grasp?

What kind of assurance does he have?

At this time, he recalled that morning, Tang Tianyou easily picked up a huge boulder weighing one ton. Was it one of his grasps to have this terrifying strange power? !

"Well, since you are so confident, then I agree." Zhao Feng said helplessly, "However, I have to send a bodyguard by your side. If you don't agree, then I will never tell you the location."

"No problem." Tang Tianyou smiled slightly.

"When are you leaving?" Zhao Feng asked.  Urban Devil Fruit 296

"Afternoon." Tang Tianyou said, "Get your luggage ready, and I'll set off."

"Okay, I'll get you the map later." Zhao Feng said.

But what Tang Tianyou and Zhao Feng didn't know was that a pretty figure seemed to flash past outside the restaurant, and then disappeared without a sound.
