Chapter 305: Meeting in the Black Market Conference Room

This time, Tang Wanjing and Chu Xiao'ang came to find Qin Siyang for a private exchange.

In the past, Qin Siyang would have asked Qian Wenzhao to arrange a conference room in the Administration Bureau for the exchange.

However, Tang Wanjing was the head of the Administration Department.

He was also the highest-ranking officer in the department.

If the meeting was arranged in the Administration Bureau, Qin Siyang and Chu Xiao'ang would inevitably worry that Tang Wanjing might pull some tricks.

But Tang Wanjing was even more worried that Qin Siyang and Chu Xiao'ang would think he was going to pull some tricks.

These two people, one was someone Tang Wanjing didn't want to provoke, and the other was someone he didn't dare to provoke.

So, to avoid suspicion, they chose to let the neutral Zhao Longfei help find a place for the discussion.

Zhao Longfei directly arranged a conference room in the black market's major transaction area.

He also removed all surveillance and monitoring devices.

It wasn't because Zhao Longfei had suddenly turned over a new leaf.

It was purely because he already knew the contents of the transaction. It was about the remains of the Thunder Snow Wolf and fragments of the inner leaves of Titan Foxtail Grass.

He had already asked Qin Siyang for some of the Thunder Snow Wolf's remains.

As for the Titan Foxtail Grass inner leaf fragments, Qin Siyang had also given him a portion.

So, this transaction didn't interest him at all.

Since he wasn't interested, there was no need to take the risk of offending a department head and a legion commander.

Everything was ready.

Qin Siyang spent his time at the hotel eating and sleeping, then sleeping and eating, enjoying himself thoroughly.

Two days later, Chang Tianxiong handed a phone to Qin Siyang, "My brother installed an anti-surveillance feature on this phone for you. Remember, as long as you make an outgoing call, it cannot be monitored. But incoming calls can still be intercepted."

"Got it, I'll remember that."

"Also, my brother didn't have enough time, so I was the one who researched and updated your navigation system. This time, the navigation system is set up based on the magnetic field, so it won't be affected by lightning anymore."

"That's great!"

"But you can't put your phone in a strong magnetic environment, or the navigation system will fail."

"Huh? Then isn't this just fixing one problem by creating another?"

"No, I designed the navigation function based on your phone's setup. The internal chip of your phone contains magnetic-sensitive materials. In a strong magnetic environment, your phone will directly malfunction."

Qin Siyang suddenly realized: "So, what you're saying is that even if my navigation system isn't affected in a strong magnetic environment, I won't be able to use it if my phone can't even turn on? So as long as my phone is working, my navigation system will work?"

"Exactly."

"Alright, I understand now. Thank you, Professors Chang!"

Chang Tianxiong chuckled, "It's nothing, just a small matter. Compared to modifying a phone, the Thunder Snow Wolf's lightning-breathing skill and its tongue that you provided were a huge help to us."

"No problem! By the way, Professor Chang, do you need the remains of the Corrosive Black Centipede, Ice Crystal Moth, Lava Crocodile, or Titan Foxtail Grass? Old Li wants these items anyway. If I manage to hunt them on my next trip, I can bring some back for you guys too!"

Hearing this, Chang Tianxiong shook his head and smiled, "The materials you mentioned, countless researchers in the safe zone are lining up to get them, but no one has succeeded so far. The fact that you're even thinking about it is already appreciated."

Between the lines, he clearly didn't believe that Qin Siyang could actually get these materials.

After some small talk, he left to handle his own business.

Through his conversation with Chang Tianxiong, Qin Siyang once again confirmed the value of his materials.

This made him even more determined not to reveal them too easily.

"Sigh, looks like I need to find the right opportunity to announce just one of them."

He rested for another two days.

The Administration Department for Sequence Ability Users was located in Zone 3, a three-day journey from Zone 9.

The military forces of the Chu Legion were stationed outside Zone 12, four days away from Zone 9.

When Tang Wanjing arrived in Zone 9, he didn't rush to meet Qin Siyang.

Although he and Chu Xiao'ang were not under the same system, he still had to wait for Chu Xiao'ang to arrive so they could meet Qin Siyang together.

Besides competing for benefits, Tang Wanjing had to always maintain respect for the legion commander.

Otherwise, he might cause unnecessary trouble.

When Chu Xiao'ang arrived, Qin Siyang postponed the meeting for a day, using poor health as an excuse.

The Tengfei Construction Site was still under construction.

Qin Siyang felt like nearly a month had passed, yet the progress on the construction site hadn't changed at all.

It looked exactly the same as the last time he visited.

According to Li Tianming, because of the recent Crimson Crystal Conference, many big shots had come to Zone 9.

With big shots around, they naturally brought mid-tier figures and small-time individuals with them.

And who didn't have a few things they wanted to trade?

So, it was easy to imagine how lively the black market had become.

Over the past two days, every time Qin Siyang saw Zhao Longfei, he felt like the man's smile was even brighter than before.

He had probably made a fortune off the black market.

No wonder Tengfei Company had slowed down their construction progress.

Today, Qin Siyang was once again greeted by the same female supervisor from the black market.

But unlike last time, this time, the female supervisor wasn't just respectful. She also made frequent intentional or unintentional physical contact and kept sending flirtatious glances.

The female supervisor appeared to be around twenty-five or twenty-six years old.

She seemed well-versed in how to stir up emotions in men, likely having studied it in depth.

But as someone with a relatively dull personality, Qin Siyang had never encountered such a situation before.

Perhaps it was the constant need for combat that had helped him maintain a cool head.

His rationality easily took control.

He wasn't about to become a foolish man led around by his desires, like those embarrassing characters he despised.

Facing the female supervisor, he smiled cheerfully and said: "Thank you, Auntie."

"…Auntie?", That one word instantly wiped out all the flirtation in the female supervisor's seductive gaze, replacing it with anger and frustration.

After entering the conference room, it didn't take long before a round-faced, bespectacled middle-aged man walked in.

"You must be Little Qin? Hello, I'm Tang Wanjing."

"Hello, Director Tang!"

Qin Siyang enthusiastically stood up and took the initiative to shake hands with Tang Wanjing, showing proper respect from a junior to a senior.

Before they could chat much, another middle-aged man with a square face and a thick beard strode in, followed by a young man with a buzz cut, sharp features, and a chiseled face.

From the moment the young man entered the room, his gaze never left Qin Siyang.

Tang Wanjing immediately stood up, "Commander Chu, greetings."

Qin Siyang also stood up to show his respect, "Commander Chu, greetings."

Chu Xiao'ang nodded slightly, "Director Tang, greetings. Little Qin, greetings."

"Let me introduce—this is my son, Chu Baxing. So far this year, he holds the top spot in both God-Hunting Points and Research Points at South Glory University under special admission."

Tang Wanjing immediately nodded, "As expected of a tiger born from a great general. Commander Chu is a prominent figure in the safe zone, and Young Master Chu is just as outstanding among the younger generation."

Chu Baxing forced a stiff smile at Tang Wanjing, then continued staring at Qin Siyang.

Qin Siyang smiled and extended his hand toward Chu Baxing, "We'll be classmates in the future. Looking forward to your guidance!"
