Cave Refuge - Chapter 351 - 309 Ready to Go
If it were just individual soldier weapons, only the sniper rifle might still be of some use to Dong Tianyu; the others, whether pistols or automatic rifles, are essentially of little use to Dong Tianyu who has mastered the Left Revolver Magic Artifact.
Furthermore, although firearms have a strong killing power against martial artists below the Energy Refining Realm, they are not very effective against the massive bodies of ancient creatures. It’s like using a pistol to shoot an elephant; unless you hit the elephant’s vulnerable lethal point with one shot, bullets hitting the elephant’s body won’t even cause disability, and might instead enrage the elephant.
Seeing Dong Tianyu’s lack of enthusiasm at this moment, Ye Liuyun, being a martial artist himself, roughly guessed what Dong Tianyu was thinking.
"I know ordinary firearms are not very useful to you, but there is a reason why I recommend you choose individual soldier weapons.
Although all the guns and ammunition stored in the camp are standard-issue weapons, there are still some fine pieces among them, and those pieces would be of great use to you.
For example, the individual anti-tank missile launcher, commonly known as the RPG,
and the high-precision grenade launcher, also referred to as the sniper artillery,
and then there’s the beehive missile launcher that fires swarm micro-missiles. This thing is a major killer. Don’t be fooled by the weak killing power of each stinger missile; with a firing speed akin to that of close-guard bullets, these missile launchers not only can cover a large area around the target, but can also be used as missile interception devices when necessary.
The items that would be suitable for you to exchange are these three types.
As for this weapon exchange business, I think it’s best not to alarm anyone else, mainly because there is no accurate market price for perfume right now.
If you choose large weapons, you have to set a clear value for perfume in a meeting first, then establish a so-called camp sale price for the weapons you’ve chosen.
You should also know that with such pricing matters, the more people involved, the more opinions there will be, and it’s certain that issues will arise.
Don’t even think about it; they will definitely push down the purchase price of the perfume and raise the sale price of those weapons. Once the matter becomes public, it will become very troublesome.
If you agree with my suggestion and only choose to exchange individual soldier weapons, you can have Ye Liuyun reach out to Rylan to make special trade arrangements and set a higher purchase price for the perfume.
Then, using a barter trade, you can directly exchange for equivalent individual soldier weapons with me. Since it’s an internal trade, the price I offer only needs to be slightly higher than the purchase price, without the need to consult anyone else for a meeting; I have the authority to decide on this matter.
The most crucial thing is that the entire process is fair and square, with no rule violations, whether Rylan sets a high price for the perfume under the guise of purchasing special materials or I exchange items with you at basically fair prices through an internal trade.
Upon hearing Robinson William’s suggestion, Dong Tianyu and Ye Liuyun were both stunned for a moment; neither had expected Robinson William, who was not originally known for being flexible, to become so shrewd now.
Robinson William’s proposal was, in fact, the most common scheme used by Officials before the catastrophe. Though clichéd, it was very effective, and despite the whole process featuring insider assistance, there was not a hint of impropriety.
"Old Dong, since my brother has already said so much, I think you should listen to him. With our relationship, my brother would never rip you off,"
Hearing Ye Liuyun say this, Dong Tianyu thought about it and nodded, "Alright, let’s do it William’s way. Old Ye, first determine exactly how much perfume you need, and I’ll see if I can create a high-end packaging for the perfume.
Also, when will you go to Rylan to set a price for the perfume? Go ask early; I want to get this sorted out before we head to Kyoto."
Hearing Dong Tianyu’s pushing words, Robinson William nodded in agreement, "You’re right, Tianyu. Although the entire process is legal and aboveboard, because we all know each other, others might overthink. To prevent them from causing trouble, it’s best to make this quick, so it doesn’t drag on and get complicated."
Hearing Dong Tianyu and Robinson William’s urging, Ye Liuyun didn’t immediately set off to negotiate with Rylan about the perfume price, but instead suggested to Dong Tianyu, "I don’t think there’s a rush to settle the perfume price with Rylan.
Now that we’ve decided on this plan, Old Dong, you go and get some beautifully packaged perfume here first; with the actual product in hand, I can probably get a good price from Rylan.
When I go to Rylan, you and my brother can go pick out your items; you don’t need to worry about pricing since my brother already said, just a little above the camp’s purchasing price is fine.
After I get the purchase price for the perfume from Rylan, you can directly match the total price of the perfume to the quantity of the pre-selected weapons."
Hearing Ye Liuyun’s words, Dong Tianyu and Robinson William both nodded their heads.
"Alright, let’s go with what Old Ye suggested. I won’t stay here any longer; I’ll go take care of the perfume now and should be back before dinner."
After saying this, Dong Tianyu greeted the Taylor family brothers and left the house.
To avoid arousing suspicion from others, Dong Tianyu specifically climbed over the city wall to go to the wild.
