Apocalypse: Infinite Supplies System - Chapter 81

Chapter 81: The Deal is Done, Old Town
Alex finally got in touch with the second team that had a large amount of concrete. Moreover, they contacted him proactively.

This would give Alex a lot of leverage.

Thinking back to his negotiation with Dragon Soar leader Oliver, Alex couldn’t help but feel speechless.

This team was very humble, introducing themselves right away.

“Hello, 10086, it’s a pleasure to finally meet you.”

“I’m Ryan from Divine Power Alliance. I saw in the chat channel that you’re looking to purchase a large amount of concrete, and coincidentally, we have plenty here.”

“Let me know how much you need, we can discuss, price is not an issue.”

Ryan approached with such humility, so naturally, Alex responded politely.

“Hello, Mr. Ryan, I did mention that I need to purchase a large amount of concrete.”

“I won’t hide it from you, I need four thousand units of concrete, Mr. Ryan, can you provide that?”

Ryan quickly replied, “Of course, we have plenty of concrete here.”

Alex continued to inquire, “That’s great, let’s talk about the price. What do you hope to exchange for the transaction?”

“As long as I can meet the demand, everything is negotiable.”

Ryan quickly sent a message.

As Alex expected, their team requested S alloy for the exchange.

“10086, our team only needs S alloy.”

“Speaking of which, it’s a bit sad, our team hasn’t built an underground bunker yet, so we don’t need any other materials to exchange for concrete, please understand!”

Facing such a seller, Alex was also very straightforward.

“You’re overthinking it, I understand.”

“And, Mr. Ryan, being so frank, I don’t want to take advantage of you.”

“How about this, I’ll give you an honest price, fifty units of S alloy!”

“What do you think? This is my bottom line.”

Ryan was surprised.

He never expected Alex to offer such favorable conditions.

Their team’s psychological expectation was forty units of S alloy.

Now, Alex directly offered fifty units of S alloy, which was a pleasant surprise.

Ryan hurriedly replied, fearing that Alex might change his mind.

“Okay, it’s a deal.”

Only then did Alex realize.

It seemed like his offer was quite high.

Otherwise, Ryan wouldn’t have hurriedly agreed, fearing that he might change his mind.

However, Alex didn’t mind.

As long as it didn’t exceed his psychological price, it was acceptable.

Moreover, he preferred to cooperate long-term with someone as straightforward as Ryan.

Alex opened the trading panel and completed the transaction with Ryan, receiving four thousand units of concrete.

“Mr. Ryan, I’m very satisfied with this transaction. If there are suitable materials in the future, you can also find me, and I will offer you a satisfactory price.”

At this moment, in Ryan’s eyes, Alex seemed like a wealthy tycoon saying to himself, “Money is not a problem, as long as you have the goods.”

So, Ryan quickly agreed, seizing the olive branch Alex threw.

“Great! In the future, whenever there are bulk materials similar to this situation, as long as our team is lucky enough to have such an opportunity, we will definitely reserve it for you!”

Alex was a little puzzled.

“Opportunity? What opportunity?”

Perhaps having just completed such a large order with Alex, Ryan also let go of many guards.

Facing Alex’s question, he didn’t conceal anything.

“We are a small team, able to produce thousands of units of concrete, which is quite unusual, right?”

“In fact, we just happened to find a concrete factory, which is why we have so much concrete, and it just happened that you wanted to trade S alloy with us.”

“Otherwise, when the meteor shower comes, our team would surely be doomed.”

Seeing Ryan’s explanation, Alex finally understood.

He had been curious before, how could an unknown small team produce thousands of units of concrete at once? Although concrete wasn’t as scarce as daily necessities, such a large quantity was still significant.

Converted into daily necessities, it was also a considerable number.

Alex then asked if it was convenient for Ryan to tell him the coordinates of where they obtained the materials, so he could exchange resources for intelligence.

Without hesitation, Ryan sent the coordinates.

“It’s not really a secret, just an industrial park in the old town area, where many people have been before. It’s just that there are more zombies there, so it hasn’t been developed extensively.”

“We were also quite lucky, accidentally running into that concrete factory and stumbling out. If you’re interested, you should prepare well before going in.”

After receiving the coordinates and expressing his gratitude, Alex closed the private chat window.

The transaction between them was complete, and there was nothing else to communicate for the time being.

Alex checked the coordinates and confirmed they were near the old town area.

The development of this city followed a radial pattern.

Alex lived in the suburban villa area, the sheriff and others were in the central area, and the old town area was in the middle.

The old town area had become the most densely populated area with zombies in the city.

In the beginning, this area was not suitable as a stronghold, and it was even unsuitable for survivor survival.

But as survivors’ resources and weapons improved, the old town area gradually got developed.

Along with danger, opportunities also emerged.

In the old town area, there were plenty of resource crates everywhere.

Police stations, drug cartels, or some unknown small teams often ventured into the old town area to take their chances.

Collecting high-level resource crates, even aircraft cannons, might not be fantasies anymore.

Alex also planned to visit the old town area.

Before, he had always feared the zombie hordes in the old town area.

The scale there was not just dozens or hundreds like in the villa area, but truly resembled waves, endless at first glance.

Once trapped, there was really no way to escape.

But now, Alex had the Stealth skill, as well as an armored vehicle and a UMP9 submachine gun, greatly enhancing his strength.

Moreover, he also needed more powerful weapons.

Now, in this suburban area of ​​the villa area, high-level resource crates were rarely found.

Even the police station had moved away from its original stronghold and relocated to the central area of ​​the city.

It was only after moving to the central area that the police station’s strength stabilized.

And it even outperformed large teams like the drug cartel and Dragon Soar in the central area.

It could be seen that the central area was rich in resources.

Not to mention the even denser and higher-level resource crates in the old town area.

Alex planned to upgrade to a mid-level underground bunker and then take a trip to the old town area before the meteor shower arrived.

The most urgent task now was still to upgrade the underground bunker.
