His business remains slow until the end of his 12 hours or dimensional travel. From the news shared through the survivors, there is a reason behind this sudden disappearance of people.
He could only blame it on the Titan's arrival.
Each time when a Titan appears, the factions combine their strength together for the sake of defeating the monstrous predator.
It was no different from the tall giant drawn in the Rampage of Titan's manga, along with the Organization Evil's Tyrant-type hunter's outlook. Furthermore, this predator is infective and can cause mutation to the living dead.
The mutated one is labeled as Titan-2, or often called as "Defective Titan" due to its incomplete one arm and leg reformation.
But defective or not, a hit from them could take a life if not careful. This is why the coalition of survivors will not hesitate to clear the surrounding before they confronted the deadliest predator.
Still, the arrival of a Titan also means there's an inflow of core amongst the survivors. 10 to 15 Green Nephrite Cores equals to 1000 to 1500 Red Meteorite Cores. If half of them were to be used in his store, that's 750 credits coming into his store!
Returned to his world at 10pm, Zhang Qin Feng calculates the total sales for this travel.
50 Red Meteorite Cores for fifty items with 2 food items are given out free of charge to Dan Mi. Along with 3 cores left from yesterday, that's a total of 53 Red Meteorite Cores.
"I'll have to make use of 11 cores and turn them into gold, then bring them along with 40 pieces of gold I had left to big brother Yue Qiang."
"Hopefully, he still offers 300,000 dollars per kilogram like before, and I'll have close to 2 million dollars to purchase a car." Zhang Qin Feng followed his uncle's footsteps and placed 11 cores into the Material Station and one to the wall's power control.
With fifty pieces of gold in hand, that's 5 kilograms of gold for sale.
Since there's still some time before going back to Changzhou, Zhang Qin Feng put in 5 more cores into the generator and activates it for another five hours.
4am.
Zhang Qin Feng finally comes back to his own world again. Ending the sales with another 24 cores, he had 60 of them altogether.
Getting a rest until 11am in the morning, Zhang Qin Feng locks the door and makes his way back to the city. Luckily, after walking for an hour, he finally came across another driver that's willing to bring him along to Changzhou.
The driver was also kind enough to drive him to Fenglu Street, although knowing that the shops along this street are not simple. After getting down from the car and exchange a contact number, Zhang Qin Feng thanked brother Niu before he went to do what he's going to.
"Welcome! How may I help you?" a female staff greets Zhang Qin Feng the moment he stepped inside the Tianjin Antiques.
"Good afternoon. Can you please inform Manager Yue Qiang that Zhang Qin Feng came to look for him?" he politely made his request.
"Please wait for a while." the staff replied and made a call to the manager's office.
"Yes. Zhang Qin Feng. Yes, I understand..."
"Mr. Zhang. Manager Yue will see you now, so please let me bring you to our private room." the staff sneakily take a glance at Zhang Qin Feng, and proceed to lead him into the private room.
"My name is Luo Qing. You can call me Qingqing if you like. Please excuse me if there's nothing else." the staff introduced herself and left in a hurry.
Halfway to the ground floor front desk, Luo Qing keeps thinking about this youngster and his appearance. Although his look is somewhat better than the cute and good looking boys out there, Zhang Qin Feng gave her a kind of confidence in her eyes.
And based on how Manager Yue Qiang's tone changed after hearing his name, she trusted the sixth sense of a woman and approached Zhang Qin Feng.
After all, it was not wrong for a woman to look for a better partner! For those that even shameless, seducing sister's or best friend's partner is not an unusual incident at all.
"Ah! Xiao Feng is here. Quickly come over here and take a seat. The Longjing tea is ready too." Yue Qiang invited Zhang Qin Feng to take a seat the moment he entered.
"Big brother Yue Qiang." Zhang Qin Feng shakes hand with him before he sits. In this way, a proper master and guest in the room ceremony are conducted.
"Did you have some fate lines tied to me? Each time I am in a pinch, you're here to help." Yue Qiang initiates to start the conversation.
"Big brother is praising me too much. This is just a coincidence, a coincidence. But if I can be a help to big brother, please let me know. Although I am not rich in money, I am rich in brotherhood!" Zhang Qin Feng followed and made small talks about here and there, fate and luck, and of course, gratitude.
"Ah, so you're going to get a car for yourself? Then you're in luck. My younger brother, Yue Han, is still around. Just let me give him a call and remind him to bring you to his showroom." Yue Qiang took his phone out when it's about something he could help.
"Han Di, don't go back first. I'll introduce you to our little brother Feng later. Bring him over to your workshop for a test drive later, and make sure to give him a big discount!" Yue Qing talked on the phone for a while and return to their table's discussion.
"We should get back to business as well. Please tell me you bring me more than a kilogram of gold today." Yue Qiang finally decides to talk about their main topic. But from the way he talks, he seems in need of a large amount of gold.
"I've brought 5 kilograms today, is it too little?" Zhang Qin Feng unzips the bag on him and starts moving the gold onto the table.
Although it was only 5 kilograms worth of gold, it is still fifty pieces after splitting them into 100grams bar.
"Five kilograms? That's just enough to save your big brother Qiang! No wonder I feel that there's a fate string tied on both of us. You're really my savior this time."
"How about we priced it at 300,000 dollars per kilogram like last time? It will be 1.5 million dollars for all of them." Yue Qiang offered the same price as before, which is almost like doing a favor to Zhang Qin Feng.
"Of course! Let's listen to big brother's suggestion!" Zhang Qin Feng agreed without much consideration. Furthermore, this big brother just used his connection to introduce him to a proper car dealer. This way, he doesn't need to worry about getting cheated when buying his first car.
"Check your account. It should have 1.5 million dollars transferred." after the usual check for counterfeit gold, Yue Qiang wired the money into the account and called Yue Han into the office.
"So, this is our younger brother? I'm Yue Han, his younger brother." he came inside the room and introduced himself.
"Second brother Han," Zhang Qin Feng greets him and exchange a handshake.
"If you're done here, how about going to my showroom now? I'm going to have something to do there anyway." Yue Han suggested that they make their way over right now.
"Go ahead. There are only two hours before your showroom is closed." Yue Qiang reminded his younger brother about the time.
"Alright." Yue Han exchange a few more words and had Zhang Qin Feng followed him to his car. After a fifteen minutes driving session, they finally reached one of the three best car dealers in Changzhou.
It was a showroom about the size of the Ikea superstore. By brand alone, there's at least twenty, with close to 6 or 7 models for him to choose from.
"What do you think?"
"This is my best work so far, the Guangming Auto Traders!" Yue Han puffed his chest and proudly presented his business to this younger brother.
