It's a hell game, who can still be a human being?

Chapter 704 Inventory of Extraordinary Items

"Brother, I really can't make a decision on something this big."

The manager said with difficulty.

"Double the price, how much you earn depends on your own ability. You can refuse me, but you'd better think carefully about the cost."

Liu Zheng said calmly.

"Well, since you've put it that way, I'll try to explain it to the boss later."

The manager smiled wryly.

"Very well, go and get their indentures."

he ordered.

"Okay bro."

The manager brought the contract as instructed.

Bobo's contract is a standard one; he just needs to pay some penalty for breach of contract.

Lolo's contract is the one that sells her into servitude; she can only gain her freedom after paying back the principal and interest.

How much money does she still owe you?

Liu Zheng asked.

"Let me take a look. The principal is 100,000, and the interest is 36,783."

The manager glanced at his phone's memo app and said.

How long has she worked here?

he asked again.

"It's been a year and a half."

"So, after working for a year and a half, she hasn't paid back any of the principal, and the interest has increased by more than 10,000 yuan?"

Liu Zheng's voice was a little cold.

"This needs to take into account performance targets, and we also need to deduct expenses such as meals, accommodation, clothing, and training."

The manager gradually lost the ability to continue speaking.

"Heh. You'd better wish that I never get another order from your club, and the person who placed the order doesn't wish to set you on fire."

He took out 300,000 yuan and placed it on the table, then burned the two "contracts of servitude" to ashes with his "angry" rage.

"Squat down."

He looked at the manager and said.

Although the manager is short and has long tentacles, it's still a bit difficult for him to reach.

"Okay, brother."

The manager immediately squatted down.

"Here's a piece of advice: treat them like human beings. Go and bring them over."

Liu Zheng patted the manager on the shoulder, signaling him to leave.

Then, he took out his phone and called Niu Daji to come pick him up.

The call rang several times before it was answered.

"What are you doing? Why did it take you so long to answer the phone?"

Liu Zheng said with dissatisfaction.

"Sorry, boss, I'm hanging here, so it's not convenient for me to use my phone."

"Hanging? By whom?"

He looked puzzled.

"His Excellency De Lego thought we were inefficient, so he had us hung up."

The cattle and horses returned.

"What about Gongyang Xin?"

Liu Zheng pressed for an answer.

"It's hanging there too."

"Oh, then you can stay suspended for now, I'll come back to pick you up in a bit."

He suppressed a laugh and hung up the phone.

Letting these two guys have a bit of a hard time is a good way to teach the panda that there are always people more capable than you.

It took a long time before the manager brought both of them over.

Lolo changed into a T-shirt and jeans, and removed her makeup. Although she looked a little tired, she had regained a lot of her youthful energy.

Bobo, on the other hand, looked much worse. He was not only unconscious, but his whole body was also wrinkled and looked like a dried-up corpse.

"Carry her on your back and come with me."

Liu Zheng said to Luo Luo.

"Okay, uncle."

Lolo said cautiously.

"Don't call me uncle, and don't call me brother. If you have to call me that, then call me boss."

He frowned.

"Okay, boss."

Luo Luo immediately changed her tune.

"Ah."

Liu Zheng led them onto the hearse and then returned to Rose Street.

"Hahaha!"

Seeing the three men hanging upside down in their miserable state, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"You scoundrel, you're still laughing!"

The panda roared.

I lost the bear while helping him with chores, and he even mocked me. He's utterly inhuman.

"Who told you to be so inefficient? If you don't give it a chance to do anything, where will it get the excuse to mess with you?"

Liu Zheng said without any mercy.

He could tell with his own eyes that the French plane tree was venting its dissatisfaction with him on its two underlings.

But as long as they don't cross the line, let them be.

A philosopher once said that there are no factions within a gang, only all sorts of strange and wonderful things.

It's always better to have both struggle and unity than to appear harmonious on the surface but actually be secretly plotting to destroy each other.

"Humph!"

The panda knew he was telling the truth, so it turned its face away and ignored him.

"Alright, put them down."

Liu Zheng waved his tentacles.

"Go back and write a 500-word review. It must be genuine and well-reasoned, otherwise next time I won't be hanging on your legs."

After threatening them, the French plane tree released the three of them.

What kind of review did it ask you to write?

he asked curiously.

"Boss, Mr. De Lego wants us to watch the Ginseng Doll dance ballet."

Niu Daji replied.

"Yes, write it well. It's not easy for a child to perform a dance."

Liu Zheng said.

"Okay, boss."

Niu Daji comes from a family of gatekeepers, so he can still write.

Needless to say, pandas are a joke; it would be a joke if a disciple of the orthodox Xuanmen sect couldn't even write a character.

"Ah."

He nodded, then suddenly drew his sword and beheaded Gongyang Xin.

"I'm giving it to you as fertilizer, you're welcome."

Liu Zheng threw Gongyang Xin's two severed corpses onto the black soil.

"You clearly asked me to be your corpse collector, you should be thanking me, you idiot human."

The plane tree rolled its eyes.

"That works too, thanks."

He cupped his tentacles.

Gongyang Xin's Nightmare Suppression Technique is indeed bizarre. Even in that situation, she almost managed to turn the tide. It's better not to take her with you.

Giving the body to the plane trees as fertilizer ensures that not only the body but also the soul will be unable to escape, making it the perfect way to destroy the evidence.

As for any extraordinary items that Gongyang Xin might possess, let's leave them to France Sycamore as a reward; they'll return to him sooner or later anyway.

“Let’s go back to the clinic.”

Liu Zheng led everyone back to the clinic.

"This place has never been this lively before." Dr. Nile looked at the somewhat crowded hall, unsure whether to be happy or have a headache.

The cleaning staff was there too, and Cecilia came out to join in the fun. There were now nine "people" in the hall, and if you included the sphinx lying outside, the number was well over ten.

"Isn't that great? The family is thriving."

Liu Zheng replied.

"Are you my son? Just a nobody."

The Nile doctor rolled his eyes at him.

"We're not blood-related, but we're closer than blood-related. If you think it's not formal enough, I'll accept you as my godfather."

He said with a grin.

"Forget it, we don't have that custom where I'm from. What are you going to do with these two people?"

"Doctor Nile" said, pointing to Lolo, who was being led by Cesar to play cat's cradle.

How is Bobo doing?

Liu Zheng countered with a question.

"He won't die, but he won't be able to fully recover his appearance or do heavy work for a year."

"That's what the Nile doctor said."

"Let them stay in the clinic for now, and we'll talk about it again after Bobo regains his mobility."

"Okay, then."

The Nile doctor hesitated for a moment but then agreed.

He wasn't keen on keeping two prostitutes at the clinic, but he couldn't very well argue with Liu Zheng over such a trivial matter.

Fortunately, one was a patient and the other was a family member of a patient, so we can just treat it as the clinic starting a new business.

"Although we've taken down Gongyang Xin, we can't rule out the possibility of another mastermind behind it all. Do you want to go home, or stay at the clinic?"

Liu Zheng asked about Feng Mo's future.

“I want to go back to my own home, Uncle Liu. I have a long life ahead of me, and I can’t live in the shadows forever.”

"Ohma Mirai said firmly."

"Okay then, I'll have Abao take you to and from school for the time being."

He thought for a moment and said.

"Okay, thank you, Uncle Liu. Then I'll trouble you, Mr. Bao."

Oma Mirai said respectfully to the panda.

"You've given me work again."

The panda pursed its lips, but did not protest.

After all, taking a little girl to and from school is much easier than demolishing someone's house.

"Daji, did you ask about the deep-sea volcanic mud that I asked you to ask?"

Liu Zheng then asked Niu Daji.

“Apart from ‘Sayoudu’ trading company, I’ve asked the other trading companies, and none of them have any channels to source goods.”

Niu Daji replied.

Why didn't the 'Saduodu' trading company ask?

"I think it would be better if you asked them yourself, since you're more familiar with their manager."

Niu Daji explained.

"Hmm, not bad, you've even learned to think."

He said with a slight approval.

"Hehe, after learning from you for so long, I should have made some progress by now."

Niu Daji said embarrassedly.

Although it only followed Liu Zheng for a few days, what it did in those few days was more exciting and thrilling than it had done in the previous decades combined.

"Okay, but next time you still need to report to me before making a decision, understand?"

Liu Zheng reminded him.

"Yes, boss! I understand."

Niu Daji nodded quickly.

"Okay, I'm leaving."

He drove back to the restaurant.

As soon as he entered the lounge, he saw Niu Ma with a furrowed brow, as if he was thinking about something.

"Hey boss, what's wrong? Did the boss yell at you again?"

Liu Zheng asked with concern.

"Bullshit! I've never been yelled at by the boss before you came."

The ox and horse said irritably.

"The more you do, the more mistakes you make. This shows that the delivery department hadn't been doing much work before I came here."

He said with a sorrowful expression.

"Indeed, now that we have such a great team member like you, I think we can increase the workload. How about I talk to the boss and double the number of orders we receive each day, and assign them all to you?"

"Don't worry, if you want to achieve great things, I, an ox or a horse, am willing to be your stepping stone."

The ox and horse said in a sarcastic tone.

"Let's forget about it then. I just joined the company, so I should keep a low profile for now. I'll consider departmental changes after I've worked here for a few more years and established myself."

Liu Zheng waved his tentacle.

"A few more years? If you work for a few more years, you'll squander the entire restaurant."

"The cows and horses complained."

"I am over-flattered."

He said modestly.

"I wasn't praising you. Alright, stop bothering me and go do your own thing."

The cattle and horses flicked their tails as if shooing away flies.

"What is it? Tell me, maybe I can help."

Liu Zheng said persistently.

"hehe."

The oxen and horses simply turned their backs on the ground.

"Don't talk about knocking me down."

He rolled his eyes and went back to his little stool.

Looking at the time, it's almost time to head to the Grand Theatre.

After thinking for a moment, Liu Zheng decided to take stock of the extraordinary items he had.

First, there are miscellaneous items; he currently has the following:

The Classic of Mountains and Seas, The Dull Bullet, Big Silver Tooth's Pajamas, Chaos Club Membership Card, Giant Crescent-Shaped Blood Gem, Gold Champion Medal x2, Fragment of Killing Stone x2, Honorary Owner Medal x2.

There's not much to say about miscellaneous items; they're either not needed for the time being, or I don't know how to use them yet.

Secondly, there's his equipment, which he currently possesses as follows:

Wrath, Merit Shrapnel, Spying Eye, Endless Branches, Warm Jade Pendant, Lucky Clown Card, Citizen Walking Shoes, Power Amplifier, Decapitated Mandarin Duck Pouch, Phoenix Five Virtues Cloak, Superb Autumn Pants, Arena Champion Ring, Perfect Fireproof Pipe, Heart of the Ocean (Enhanced), Hell Before My Eyes (Helheim), Insecticide Voodoo Dagger (Ascension), Portable Biological Excrement Storage Device.

Equipment is much more useful than miscellaneous items. Even something as seemingly unsophisticated as a portable biological waste storage device can be put to good use in many situations.

For example, if someone dives directly to the bottom of a river and scoops out a bucket of thick dung, who wouldn't be confused if that were splashed on them?

Of course, Liu Zheng wouldn't do that until he had mentally prepared himself.

Hmm, how about lending the Heart of the Ocean to Niu Daji so he can go and retrieve it?

Wasn't it feeling anxious because it had been given a house? After doing this job, it felt at ease. Liu Zheng had a secret weapon, and they were all happy.

Currently, Liu Zheng's equipment arsenal is quite impressive. He has five pieces of perfect quality equipment, as well as the Ocean Heart (already enhanced), which is comparable to perfect quality equipment. He also has a large number of excellent quality equipment.

However, shortcomings also exist.

First, he lacked defensive equipment.

Although Liu Zheng has "flesh and blood regeneration", recovery ability is not the same as defense ability, and being constantly torn to pieces feels terrible.

Secondly, he also lacks equipment for long-range attacks.

Although he now has the ranged skill "slander," it's not as convenient as shooting someone.

Moreover, Liu Zheng also needs to consider the future. If he loses the "Flesh and Blood Regeneration" state one day, then the "Slander" skill will basically be useless.

Hmm, the next step is to focus on collecting equipment in these two areas.

Next are props, which are the most numerous type, and include the following:
Sick leave slip, dyed jade, wine bug king, eight-sided dice, fiery ice cubes, enlightenment potion, swear words encyclopedia, giant marbles, gut-growing flower tea, exquisite abalone, aviator sunglasses, ultra-compressed biscuits, small against big guns, citizen arm strength trainer, edible coal, spirit world gold coin bag, hellish folding basket, uncertain shadow, crazy face wash, rich chocolate, citizen's last wish recorder, Longjing shrimp and pig heart, eight hot hell yellow soup, lava strawberry cake, colorful XX jelly, cursed green dragon balut, deep-sea multi-headed abalone sashimi, British private handkerchief, Ottawa special perfume, cool and refreshing bathhouse lingerie, three-grade luck golden lotus seeds, unshaped blood gem, Kvass's all-purpose toolbox, newsstand owner's pure meat sausage, legendary deliveryman's ration cigarettes, legendary deliveryman's sun protection mask, bloody restaurant chef's special whetstone.

In terms of quality, items of all tiers, from excellent to superb, perfect to epic, are available.

In terms of functionality, there are items with all kinds of functions, including assistance, control, defense, attack, single target, and group.

Although he had only met Xia Kai, Liu Zheng could still confidently say that no other player had such a luxurious fortune in the beginner dungeon.

If there's any drawback, it's that it lacks a trump card like the Bloody Restaurant cosplay outfit.

Finally, there were the extraordinary items that failed the system's assessment, which was the most important part of his inventory.
