Chapter 23: Xie Jinxin Comes to the Door

"Knock knock knock!"

Xie Jinxin gently knocked on the door.

The small door next to the main gate opened silently.

"What's the matter?" Lin Shi, half his body hidden in the darkness, stared coldly at the visitor.

"Damn, you scared me to death in the middle of the night!" Xie Jinxin patted his chest,

"Your goods, I've delivered them for you.

Open the door!"

Seeing no unusual movements from the two, Lin Shi closed the small door again and opened the main gate.

The truck drove directly into the warehouse.

Xie Jinxin patted the side of the truck and said, "Everything is here.

A Biao!"

The one named A Biao was the truck driver, with a strong and tall build.

A Biao opened the back door of the truck, and the cargo hold was filled with barrels of oil.

"Brother, check the goods," Xie Jinxin gestured to Lin Shi.

"No need, I trust you," Lin Shi did not step into the dimly lit cargo hold.

Xie Jinxin smiled and waved to A Biao, who walked alone into the carriage and carried down the barrels of oil one by one.

It looked incredibly easy, with astonishing strength.

Twenty tons of oil were unloaded by A Biao alone.

Lin Shi and Xie Jinxin stood by, hands in their pockets, watching.

Lin Shi didn't move because he would never expose his back to someone he didn't trust.

He had traded more than ten million in gold with Xie Jinxin.

Wealth can move people's hearts, and in the face of enough profit, anyone can turn into a devil.

Naturally, Lin Shi would not rely on Xie Jinxin's character for his own safety.

His face looked too young, and even if Xie Jinxin had other thoughts, he wouldn't find it strange.

It wasn't until more than two hours later that A Biao, panting heavily, carried down all the oil barrels.

Xie Jinxin and Lin Shi said goodbye cheerfully, got on the truck with A Biao, and drove away.

Lin Shi kept watching the vehicle until it was out of sight before he withdrew his gaze.

It seemed that Lin Shi was being overly cautious, but caution never hurt anyone, and Lin Shi didn't feel he had done anything wrong.

In the truck, Xie Jinxin, who had been watching the rearview mirror out of the corner of his eye, also withdrew his gaze when he could no longer see Lin Shi.

The driving A Biao complained, "Old Xie, are you being too careful? We clearly had a chance to strike just now."

Xie Jinxin smiled:

"It's not that I'm too careful, it's that the young man is too careful.

Didn't you notice that this young man has been very vigilant towards us from beginning to end?"

A Biao glanced at the rearview mirror, where no one was visible anymore, and said dismissively:

"He's just a weakling, I could crush him with a flick of my fingers."

Xie Jinxin slowly took out a cigarette, lit it, and although he was in a leisurely posture, his eyes were full of gravity:

"I don't think so.

When I was standing next to him just now, I had a feeling that if I made any move, I would be killed instantly."

A Biao's expression also became serious: "Really? I saw he had no weapons in his hands, even if he wanted to draw a gun, it wouldn't be faster than you, right?"

Xie Jinxin had been in this business for so many years, often encountering buyers who wanted to cheat and only pay with bullets instead of the remaining payment after receiving the goods.

Xie Jinxin had relied on his quick and steady gun-drawing technique to stay safe all these years.

But he said his gun-drawing technique was not as fast as that young man's?

How could this not surprise A Biao, who had known Xie Jinxin for many years!

"You should know my feelings have saved me many times."

Xie Jinxin exhaled a puff of smoke:

"Did you forget about Lao Jin's disappearance?

That day, I sensed that Lao Jin was going to make a move against this person, and I casually mentioned it.

But since that day, Lao Jin has vanished, and he's still safe and sound.

What does that tell you without me saying it?

To handle things so cleanly in Hai City.

It's not that I overestimate this kid, I think I've underestimated him.

We agreed before we came out today, just to see if there's an opportunity, and if not, we leave.

It turns out we were right not to make a move.

If we had, at least one of us would have to pay the price."

Ah Biao opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end, he didn't.

Xie Jinxin stubbed out the cigarette, looking at Ah Biao who still looked unconvinced, and said:

"After knowing each other for so many years, you know I've always been good at judging people.

Listen to me, don't mess with this kid in the future.

I have a premonition that as long as this kid doesn't die, he will not be obscure in the future."

"By the way, let's also stock up on some diesel and gasoline.

Keep more supplies recently.

I always feel uneasy, as if something is about to happen."

...

After securing the warehouse door and checking that all the oil barrels were fine, and there were no surveillance devices like micro cameras installed, Lin Shi finally felt relieved.

He opened several barrels of oil to check, and the facts proved that the oil was fine.

Each barrel of oil weighs 100 kilograms, and 200 barrels were neatly stacked in three rows.

After confirming again that there was no one outside the warehouse, Lin Shi placed his hand on a barrel and silently recited in his heart:

"Item duplication!"

The item duplication number on the treasure basin interface in front of him changed from 22 to 21.

And in front of him, with a burst of golden light, the oil barrels suddenly doubled out of thin air!

Lin Shi happily checked the duplicates, from the barrels to the oil inside, all were perfectly duplicated.

10 tons of gasoline and 10 tons of diesel became 20 tons of gasoline and 20 tons of diesel!

His bright eyes flickered with excitement!

How could just 10 tons of diesel and 10 tons of gasoline be enough? What he wanted was enough oil to last for decades after the extreme cold arrived.

In the future, the shelter would rely on this oil to power the generators, and his snowmobile would also need oil to start.

So when he proposed the trade with Xie Jinxin, Lin Shi had already planned to use the item duplication ability to duplicate more oil.

Now he has 20 tons of gasoline and 20 tons of diesel, which still doesn't satisfy Lin Shi.

Gold that has been duplicated once can be duplicated again, but what about the duplicates?

Can duplicates be duplicated again?

Previously, because the duplicated gold was hard to circulate, Lin Shi didn't continue to duplicate with the gold duplicates.

But even if the oil is a duplicate of a duplicate, as long as the stuff is the same, it doesn't affect the use at all.

Lin Shi connected the two piles of oil and used item duplication again!

A burst of golden light flashed,

In the entire warehouse, the original 400 barrels of oil doubled to 600 barrels in the golden light.

Lin Shi was a bit disappointed.

If duplicates could be duplicated, this time he should have gotten 800 barrels, then the next time would be 1600 barrels, and after duplicating several times, he would have endless oil in the future.

However, the fact proved that only the original 200 barrels of oil could be duplicated.

The duplicated oil barrels could not be duplicated again.

Now he has figured out the limitations of the treasure basin's item duplication function.

One, duplicates cannot be used for space upgrades.

Two, items that have been duplicated once can be duplicated again, but the duplicates cannot be duplicated again.
