The First Order - Chapter 139

Chapter 139


A group of people gathered around the magical landline . Even Xiaoyu joined in on the fun .

Ren Xiaosu asked, "How do we use this thing?" He saw a bunch of numeric buttons on the phone, but there was no operating manual for it .

"Look at the series of numbers on the Pyro Company's pamphlet . " Wang Fugui said as he pointed at it, "Do we just dial them in sequential order?"

"I guess so . Let's try it . " Ren Xiaosu said, "Liuyuan, you give it a try . "

Everyone was quite curious about this new device, but Ren Xiaosu still took care of Yan Liuyuan and decided to let him have fun with it first .

Under the gaze of everyone's anticipation, Yan Liuyuan dialed the series of numbers . They definitely would not use the Pyro Company's numbers to test it out, so it ended up with numbers being punched in randomly .

But after dialing the number, nothing happened!

Yan Liuyuan looked up at Ren Xiaosu and said, "Bro, there's no response . "

"Let me think . " Ren Xiaosu said, "We probably made a mistake operating it . You can see that it's an eight-digit number on the Pyro Company's leaflet . So we should be dialing an eight-digit number as well . "

Chen Wudi came in from the backyard and saw the whole lot of them crowded together . He asked, "Master, what are all of you doing?"

Ren Xiaosu's eyes lit up . "Come, come, my disciple, see if you know how to operate this thing . "

Although Chen Wudi used to live in a psychiatric hospital, he should still understand some basic functions of things, right? Maybe there was such a thing as a telephone in the psychiatric hospital?

"Let me see . " Chen Wudi glanced at it and said, "This is a telephone . "

Chen Wudi then picked up the handset on the telephone . Ren Xiaosu and the others finally understood they had to pick it up first before using it .

They saw Chen Wudi punch in a series of numbers . After several rings, a voice sounded from the receiver . "Who is it?"

Chen Wudi said in an imposing manner, "I'm the Great Sage!"

"You're crazy!"

With a click, the person on the other end hung up .

Ren Xiaosu grinned . This phone thingy was amazing! The person on the other end could even accurately identify Chen Wudi's nature through it .

Chen Wudi got so angry he wanted to call back to scold that person . However, he had already forgotten what number he dialed .

"Come, Liuyuan, give it a try as well," Ren Xiaosu said with a smile .

Yan Liuyuan dialed the numbers in anticipation . After two rings, someone picked up the phone, and the voice of a middle-aged man could be heard saying, "Who is this?"

Yan Liuyuan felt as though he had opened up a door to a new world . He said politely, "Hello, uncle . "



The person on the other end was stunned . "Who are you? Is there anything you're calling me for?"

"It's nothing, I was just trying to make a call," Yan Liuyuan said honestly . "I just learned how to use the telephone . I'm sorry for disturbing you . "


"Um, it's alright . " The person on the other end hung up .

Yan Liuyuan looked up and said to Ren Xiaosu with the receiver in his hand, "Bro, this phone thingy is amazing . The other person on the phone feels like he's right across from me . "

"Mhm . " Ren Xiaosu nodded . "Don't test it anymore . It's not good to disturb others . "

But suddenly, the phone rang . Ren Xiaosu was stunned before picking it up . "Hello?"

The person on the other end said, "Do you need a small loan…"

The person prattled on and said a lot of things, but Ren Xiaosu and the others were stunned . They just could not understand what the person was saying . Ren Xiaosu hesitated before saying, "I don't understand what you mean . "

That person stayed silent for a couple seconds . "It just means that we can lend you money . "

"How much is the interest?" Ren Xiaosu asked after a short pause .

"3%," the person in the call said .



Ren Xiaosu laughed, "Isn't that loansharking?"

The person in the call shouted to someone, "Boss, someone says that we're loan sharks . "

Someone else came to the phone and said, "Young man, don't you spout nonsense . We aren't loan sharks . "

Ren Xiaosu laughed his ass off . "Isn't charging 3% interest loansharking? Of all the businesspeople out there, you're the ones without a conscience . "

Honestly, Ren Xiaosu thought that everyone in the stronghold lived and worked in a prosperous environment . But it seemed that there were also some shady businesses .

The man spoke in a low voice, "Do you know who I am?"

Immediately, Ren Xiaosu wondered why the voice sounded so familiar . Didn't he hear this voice somewhere before? He asked him back, "Do you know who I am?"

The man was stunned . "Who are you?"

Ren Xiaosu said, "I'm Yan Linfeng from the Western District!"

After a brief silence, the man replied, "Fuck, I'm also the Yan Linfeng from Western District…"

Ren Xiaosu was speechless .



So it turned out it was not everyone who liked introducing themselves, but that he was always encountering those who did . And they were always fucking called Yan Linfeng too . It was no wonder the voice sounded so familiar!

With a click, Ren Xiaosu hung up the phone . When Yan Linfeng came to see the doctor, Ren Xiaosu was already a little unhappy with him . He was thinking that if he used this name over the phone, he could let those people fight among themselves . But he never expected to encounter the same person .

Yan Linfeng probably did not know who he was calling, right? Even if he knew who it was, Ren Xiaosu was not afraid of him . Ren Xiaosu already knew that guns were prohibited in the stronghold . In the entire stronghold, Ren Xiaosu was not afraid of anyone other than the Li Consortium's troops .

"Actually, we should work on our relationship with a local like him . " Wang Fugui said, "It seems that Yan Linfeng is involved in some shady business and has underlings working for him . I think it's helpful to know such people no matter where we are . "

"Mhm . " Ren Xiaosu nodded and said, "If he comes here to see the doctor again, you can have a longer chat with him . "

"Sure," Wang Fugui agreed . "News of the effectiveness of our black medicine should start spreading after tonight . We won't even have to promote it and can just rely on word of mouth to create a market!"

Ren Xiaosu felt somewhat uncomfortable . After tearing up the Pyro Company's pamphlet, he said, "Everyone, don't tell anyone that Chen Wudi and I are supernatural beings . Keep a close eye on Chen Wudi and don't let him run around outside unnecessarily in the short term, in case he gets into trouble . "

He assumed Luo Lan would not disclose the fact that Chen Wudi was a supernatural being to the stronghold . However, there was no guarantee that Jiang Wu's group of students could keep it a secret, so they should be prepared for all possible scenarios .

Ren Xiaosu remembered the small note left by Yang Xiaojin . It seemed she was right after all . The presence of the multiple powers had turned Stronghold 109 into a chaotic place . He didn't know why or how many other powers were involved . So the best he could do was protect Yan Liuyuan and the others .

"Old Wang," Ren Xiaosu ordered, "I'll write a list for you . Go and see if you're allowed to buy these items . Remember not to buy them together, but separately . "

Ren Xiaosu had to prepare an escape route . He would use it as a last resort .

Ren Xiaosu had stolen something very crucial from Yang Xiaojin while they were in the Jing Mountains: Advanced Bomb-making . 3% interest monthly, annual interest is 36% . What is the interest rate of credit cards in your country?Please download our sponsor's game to support us!
