Chapter 52 International Black Market
Since the auction ended, Li Hao's reputation has quietly spread on the ship.
However, except for most Japanese people who expressed their unfriendliness to him, guests from other countries were more enthusiastic, among which the United States and South Korea were the most enthusiastic, and many people took the initiative to invite him to visit the two countries.
As for China, it is relatively restrained. It is neither as enthusiastic as the American and Korean guests, but it cannot be said to be alienated.
And time passed slowly in this strange atmosphere.
The third day of the Hundred Ghosts Night Tour, that is, the second day after the auction.
For most of the guests on the boat, this is a day worth celebrating and one of the main reasons why most people come to participate in the Hundred Ghost Night Tour.
Unlimited fighting!
Unlimited fighting is not held on board, but on medium-sized islands deep in the high seas.
The island is like a waning moon, with a length of about 40 kilometers from east to west and twenty kilometers from north to south.
The island has complete living facilities, more luxurious residences than five-star hotels, and a battleground that covers a vast area, like an ancient Greek Colosseum.
As the sun is booming, you can see the island on the sea from afar, which looks like a giant beast lying on it.
Tuoba Kuang and Li Hao stood on the top deck. Through the lush and tall vegetation on the island, you can vaguely see various buildings and majestic Colosseum hidden on the island.
Tuoba pondered wildly and said in a calm voice: "This island is the essence of activity.
Yesterday's auction was just for special high-end customers, and the island's black market will be open to all customers on board.
Although some places still have restrictions, they are not as severe as those on board. Moreover, because they are widely used, the items on them must be complete."
Tuoba Kuang said this, and after looking around, he said mysteriously: "In fact, behind every unlimited fight, there are secret games between various countries. This matter is far from being a fox beauty alone, or even a few people can operate it, and the water inside is deep."
Li Hao raised his eyebrows slightly and said unexpectedly: "Gambling between countries?"
Tuoba Kuang's lips curled slightly, and he smiled and said in a low voice: "Although most of these deadly gladiators from all over the world are outlaws who want money but not life, in fact, a considerable number of them are test-taken by arms companies and even state institutions from various countries.
Some are the products of biological gene experiments, while others are testers of individual arms of various countries.
Their real purpose is to find or supplement the experimental products in the competition. In fact, unlimited fighting has existed a long time ago, but one of the current organizers is the Fox Beauty.”
Tuoba Kuang did not explain who the organizer of the previous unlimited fighting was, and Li Hao did not mean to ask. He was a little surprised, but he didn't care too much.
No matter what secrets are hidden behind unlimited fighting, they have no meaning to him.
"When I arrive on the island, do I want me to take you to play? I know the best where this island is the most fun." Tuoba invited with a smile.
He said, uttering a slightly lewd laugh, the meaning of which could not be more obvious.
Li Hao was amused in his heart, rejected Tuoba Kuang's kindness and said, "I want to go to the black market to have a look."
The main purpose of Li Hao's visit this time was to find small high-tech equipment for military purposes and see if it could be helpful in the Three Kingdoms era. After all, China's jurisdiction over this aspect is too strict, and civilian high-tech is not comparable to military purposes.
If it weren't for Tuoba Kuang's invitation, even if Li Hao had the intention, he would not have a channel to buy. But now that he has the opportunity, Li Hao naturally wants to buy the best high-tech products.
Tuoba frowned and reminded: "The black market is mixed, but it's very messy.
Although they dare not touch the customers on the Nine-Tailed Fox, it is hard to say about the price. Moreover, the goods on the black market are of different quality. Should I be the guide for you to ensure that you can find the most suitable store."
Li Hao did not refuse Tuoba Kuang's kindness and said, "That's going to be troublesome."
Tuoba Kuang smiled generously and said, "You are the guest I brought, why are you polite to me?"
The black market is located on the south side of the island. If someone hadn't explained it, Li Hao would have thought it was a bustling street that gathered people from all over the world.
Although there are no high-rise buildings on the island, there are also neat and uniform three-story small buildings on both sides of the road.
The only question that made Li Hao a little confused was that on this bustling street, there were obviously far more passengers coming to shop than on the boat.
Li Hao asked, "It should be more than the guests on the boat here, right?"
Tuoba Kuang whispered: "This island is called Black Pearl, and is also known as the Devil's Island. It is one of the international black markets located in the Pacific Ocean, so it is normal for more tourists.
However, we don’t need to worry. Although there are no legal restrictions from various countries here, no one dares to touch the guests of the Nine-Tailed Fox. As long as the relevant regulations on Black Pearl Island are not violated, the guests of the Nine-Tailed Fox will never be harassed.
Of course, although there are various prohibited products here that are explicitly prohibited by various countries, you should be more careful when buying things. If you are a stranger, or someone who does not know how to buy prohibited products, there is a great possibility that you will be slaughtered by someone.
Another point is that although there are not many rules on the island, some things should be careful, otherwise it is very likely to cause unnecessary trouble."
Tuoba Kuang pointed to the shop where the curtains were completely pulled up, and explained: "For example, the shop where the curtains were completely pulled up means that a secret transaction was being carried out inside and no other guests were received for the time being.
The kind of shop that pulls up one-third of the curtains means that although the transaction is in progress, any guests are still welcome.
These are relatively obvious rules and can be noticed easily.
In addition, there are some more hidden unspoken rules.
For example, if you go to a weapon store and just shout that you want to buy weapons, you will definitely not see the real top-notch goods, and the price is much more expensive than the normal price. But if you say you buy some special fruits, people will know what you want to buy and will show you better products."
Li Hao was surprised, but he didn't expect there were so many tricks in it.
At the same time, his senses about Tuoba Kuang were a little different. The ordinary rich second-generation young master would not know so many things.
Tuoba Kuang did not pay attention to Li Hao's expression change and took him into a larger store.
There are not many customers, there are a total of four employees.
One woman and two men have obvious Southeast Asian characteristics. Compared with these three, the old white man sitting next to smoking and reading newspapers looked particularly special.
Tuoba Kuang walked forward and smiled and said, "Dear Harris, have you bought some special fruits recently? Also, don't think about fooling me with those stale fruits. I want the freshest goods."
Harris seemed to be very familiar with Tuoba Kuang, frowned and cursed directly in skillful Chinese language: "Fake, if it weren't for your grandfather's sake, I really wanted to slap you to death with a bastard. Okay, come with me."
Harris said, walking towards the store.
Tuoba Kuang saw Li Hao's puzzled expression and whispered: "My grandfather liked to find excitement when he was young. Harris had an old friendship with him. He used to be a desperate mercenary in the Middle East and Africa for a period of time, and later went to Mars to take risks."
Li Hao nodded slightly and followed Harris in with great anticipation.
