Martial: I Started The Technological Revolution In Ancient Times

They were all confused.    

Then they asked in a low voice, "Yun, what are they selling? I waited for a long time, but I didn't see them open the box."    

Xiao Yun smiled and said, "It's an auction like this. It's like opening a blind box. We don't know what's inside. We'll only know after we open it."    

"Huh?"    

Leng Yueling was puzzled and said, "Then... Then what if the thing is very bad? Didn't the person who bought it lose money? "    

"Why do you always think that it is not good? What if the things you buy open up and end up being worth far more than the price you pay?"    

"How could that be?"    

Leng Yueling frowned and said," We don't know what is inside, but the person who put it in must know. "    

Xiao Yun was speechless.    

The source of the blind box was told by Leng Yueling at once.    

This guy was indeed the great general who once dominated the north. His brain was still good enough.    

This kind of special blind box, in some people's eyes, should be more like a bet.    

After all, if the merchants wanted to maintain their sales, they would not let everyone treat them as scammers. Then, they would definitely put in some of the more valuable things.    

Of course, in general, the merchants would definitely earn a lot.    

However, there would definitely be good things inside.    

This became a gamble. The gambler felt that he would definitely win that valuable thing.    

All sorts of psychological warfare and analysis battles naturally started in people's hearts.    

Bet this kind of thing.    

It was very terrifying.    

What was truly terrifying wasn't the fact that gamblers would always profit, or that they would lose if they gambled for a long period of time.    

The truly terrifying part of gambling was the destruction of one's heart, the destruction of one's values!    

Especially the destruction of one's self-awareness.    

This was very terrifying.    

Xiao Yun had seen some people before.    

They bet.    

But if someone wanted to play, they still had to advise.    

They didn't want others to gamble, even if they wanted to play.    

They often said one sentence, "I won't be able to do it for the rest of my life. You can't gamble, so gambling is useless."    

They were the ones who understood the dangers the most.    

They knew that most of the time, it was a scam.    

They continued to gamble. On one hand, they wanted to take advantage of the situation. On the other hand, it was also a form of inertia and a form of resignation.    

When a person's self-value was destroyed, that person would be completely finished. Even his life would be meaningless to him.    

How could a person who started to look down on his own life care about anything else?!    

Xiao Yun's past life. At that time, he knew a person.    

His nickname was Little Tiger.    

He was once the most promising young man in the organization.    

Everyone had high hopes for him.    

And for a mission, he had to gamble a few times.    

He went, disapproving.    

And then he won.    

He won more than 2 million in one night.    

At first, he was very happy, but after that, he became depressed.    

Especially when it came to work.    

Some missions were even more difficult to avoid. It was no longer like before, when there was danger, he had to rush up by himself.    

Xiao Yun couldn't help but ask why he had become like this. He chatted with him for a while.    

He only sighed.    

"I went on a mission and risked my life. I almost died. Then I only earned a few tens of thousands, and sometimes I even got injured all over. I had to lie in bed for a long time. I had already risked my life for two years. After that, I only saved two hundred thousand. I am already very thrifty... But previously, I obtained two million in one go. I had to put my life on the line for twenty years before I could save it... Do you think I can live until twenty years later? Can I hold on to that mission?"    

" After winning the money, I was very happy. Then, I went to a high-class place that I didn't dare to enter to spend some money... Hehe, you know what? It turns out that a plate of beef can buy more than 800 yuan. A meal can buy over 2,000 yuan of food. The shop was full of people. Do you dare to believe it? A meal worth more than two thousand dollars actually requires a queue! I ate, drank, and played. At that time, I was very happy. I had never been so happy before, but what happened in the end? That night, I spent a hundred thousand yuan, and it was actually to eat, drink, and play. I only spent that much money in a year. That is the money that I can only save up. In one night, it was gone in one night. Then, I looked at the two million yuan in my card... "    

Speaking up to this point, Little Tiger could not continue.    

Xiao Yun could only sigh.    

He knew that his words alone wouldn't be able to change anything.    

Little Tiger was too young. He had been defeated. It was a defeat that he could not save.    

Xiao Yun also understood why the organization gave them very little rewards.    

A mission, just the things used by the executors, and the resources used, were all in the tens of thousands. It was common for millions, or even hundreds of millions, to complete a mission.    

But the rewards given to them were still so little.    

It was not that the organization did not want to give this money, but they were worried that if they gave too much money, these fellows who had mastered powerful skills would lose their true intentions.    

Actually, compared to ordinary people, their remuneration was quite a lot. If they could retire, the considerable pension would be enough to make ordinary people look at them.    

The control of this number was to let them keep their true intentions.    

To put it bluntly, if they had too much money and had seen too many prosperous worlds, if their hearts changed, they would be a disaster to the world.    

Because they had too many ways to earn money.    

Of course, most of them challenged the authority of those in power.    

In the end, Little Tiger made a huge mistake.    

He was supposed to carry out an assassination mission, but he kidnapped the other party and demanded a lot of money.    

In his opinion, since he was going to kill everyone in the end, he might as well take the opportunity to earn some money. Once he got the money, the mission would be completed, and everyone would be happy.    

However, it was precisely because of this that he missed some clues and gave some people a chance to realize the existence of the organization.    

In the end, Little Tiger died.    

Xiao Yun didn't know how he died.    

According to the report, he was killed by the enemy during the mission. However, according to Xiao Yun's understanding of him, no one among those people was a match for him.    

Was it organized?    

There was no way to know, and no way to ask.    

However, Xiao Yun still felt that the true cause of his death was that damned gamble!    

"Yun? Yun?"    

Leng Yueling's call pulled Xiao Yun out of his thoughts.    

"What happened to you? Distracted, why don't you take a shower first?"    

"Oh, nothing much. I just thought of some past events. I thought of a young man that I once valued."    

"A young man that you valued? That must be extraordinary. How is he now?"    

Xiao Yun sighed and shrugged. "He must have died prematurely."    

" Oh... What a pity. "    

Leng Yueling quickly changed the topic," Do you still want to participate in this auction? I keep feeling that they are lying."    

Xiao Yun smiled and said, "Actually, it is quite interesting. Why don't you try it?"    

"Me?"    

Leng Yueling pointed at her nose and thought for a while. She nodded and said, "Alright then."    

Leng Yueling had experienced auctions before.    

Naturally, she understood the rules.    

She did not choose the big box. Instead, she waited until a small box came out and waited for Hai Qinghe to bid the base price of thirty taels before directly bidding.    

Thirty-one taels.    

She was a little petty.    

In her mind, she was just bidding and playing around. As long as the price was higher, she would give up.    

However, when she finished bidding, she was surprised to find that everyone turned to look at her, and then... they stopped bidding.
