Chapter 406 Sky-High Price

"I see."

After listening to it, Su Bai didn't care too much.

"There is one more good news and one not-so-good news to tell you."

Yun Tao interrupted suddenly.

"Uh, what news?"

Su Bai immediately became nervous when he heard Yun Tao's words.

"The good news is that the construction of Xingluo's production line is going smoothly."

"What about the bad news?"

"Our money is running out, and this production line is far beyond the budget, otherwise I wouldn't come here with Huang Qi to wait for you, so the behavior of Huang Qi and the others is not incomprehensible."

Yun Tao said with a smile.

Huang Qi sighed and said, "We wanted to make a fortune with you, but now we can only hope that the equipment will be worth some money."

"Ahem, don't worry, it should be fine."

When Su Bai said this, he had no confidence at all.

"Why hasn't the estimator come after so long?" Luo Zhu almost fell asleep waiting.

"I'll go and see!"

Su Bai also felt a little strange, and he walked towards the floor-standing instrument.

Zhong Wuqing stood beside the instrument, not leaving for a moment, very devoted to his duty.

"Captain Zhong, why hasn't the appraiser come yet?"

Su Bai asked politely.

"Please wait patiently. Since many people have gone out to collect supplies recently, they have brought back a lot of strange-shaped supplies, and there are often controversial items. The appraisers with more experience are very busy, so please wait patiently."

"Okay."

Su Bai didn't say anything, so he could only stand by and wait together.

Time passed by second by second, and a pitfall happened. It was dark!

The so-called more experienced appraiser hadn't come yet, not even a shadow was seen, and the soldiers who went to call him didn't come back.

While waiting, Su Bai asked several times, and was told to wait patiently.

No matter how patient Su Bai was, he was a little anxious.

Huang Qi and the others complained, "Why haven't they come yet? Can't we ask the appraiser here? Or we can ask the appraiser in the nearby passage!"

Yun Tao narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling something was wrong. He walked to Su Bai and whispered to him.

"We've been waiting for too long. Don't wait any longer. Let them make an estimate. After we pay the tax, we'll find someone to appraise it when we return to the city."

Su Bai nodded slightly. He agreed with what Yun Tao said in his heart, but he was also a little suspicious.

He walked to Zhong Wuqing again: "Captain Zhong, it's been so long, and the appraiser you found hasn't come yet. Why don't you ask your appraiser to make an estimate directly? A little higher is fine, and we'll accept it!"

Zhong Wuqing directly rejected Su Bai's proposal.

"Mr. Councillor Su Bai, this is a rigorous job. It's impossible to do it casually."

"No, why don't you urge them again? You see, the other entrance teams are almost finished with the inspection."

Su Bai replied with a frown.

"Mr. Councillor Su Bai, please wait patiently."

Zhong Wuqing still insisted.

At this time, Yun Tao came up and said politely: "Captain Zhong, why don't we change the entrance? We won't bother you."

After listening, Su Bai nodded and said: "That's right."

His patience was almost exhausted.

Zhong Wuqing saw Su Bai's insistence, and his expression changed. Finally, he began to speak.

"How about this, you wait a little longer, I will go and call someone in person, and I will definitely not let you wait for a long time. If you still want to change the entrance, I will not stop you. I am deeply sorry for the inconvenience caused."

"Okay!"

Su Bai's expression eased a little when he heard this.

Zhong Wuqing then walked towards the rest stop at the back, and then he entered the rest stop. He saw an old man with a white beard sitting in the station, and a sergeant next to him was always guarding.

Seeing Zhong Wuqing come in, the sergeant immediately saluted.

"Sir!"

The old man also hurriedly stood up and greeted.

"Commander Zhong."

"Mr. Zhang Xun, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting here. You can go and make the appraisal."

"Commander Zhong, how should I make the appraisal?"

"Identify truthfully."

Zhong Wuqing was also forced into a corner. There was no other way. From the data he read, the other party was an arms councillor and was not so easy to fool.

"Okay! I know what to do."

Zhang Xun replied.

On the other side, Huang Qi complained, "It's really troublesome. Others have finished appraising a lot of things, but it took us half a day to estimate this instrument."

"Okay, stop complaining."

Su Bai was also a little helpless. It was obviously a simple matter, but it took half a day here.

"Here they come! Here they come!"

Luo Zhu shouted excitedly while looking at the distance.

Su Bai and the others looked over and saw Zhong Wuqing walking over with an old man in work clothes.

It seems that he is really old enough!

"This is Councillor Su Bai. This is the instrument to be appraised. This is Mr. Zhang Xun, a former senior appraiser of Longxia."

Zhong Wuqing introduced.

"Sorry, Councillor Su Bai, I'm really too busy and can't get away for the time being."

Zhang Xun apologized to Su Bai with a very apologetic expression.

"It's okay."

After Su Bai heard this, his original concerns were dispelled a lot. Besides, the other party was originally an appraiser of Longxia, so there was even less worry.

"Let's start the appraisal."

Zhong Wuqing didn't say any more nonsense.

Zhang Xun began to check around the instrument, and as soon as he saw the instrument, his old face was very excited!

"I know this instrument! MCOC-03 High Concentration Gene Activity Extraction Device!"

"It sounds so advanced. How much is it?"

Huang Qi asked excitedly.

Su Bai looked at Zhang Xun with expectant eyes.

Zhang Xun briefly checked the integrity of the instrument, then raised his head and said, "This instrument is well preserved, and there are still seven new layers, but there is a missing matching container in the middle, so the value will be reduced. I wonder if there is anything wrong with what I said?"

Su Bai was a little impressed when he heard this. The title of senior appraiser is not a lie.

"No, please estimate the price."

Zhang Xun said seriously, "This instrument needs to pay a tax of 500 billion star coins!"

Su Bai was dumbfounded when he heard this number.

Huang Qi, Er Gouzi and others jumped up excitedly!

"I'm rich!!"

"Really rich!"

"Boss, this instrument is worth 5 trillion star coins!"

Su Bai was in a trance. It's so valuable? I didn't hear it wrong.

Er Gouzi stretched out his hand and shook it in front of Su Bai!

"Boss! Boss!"

Su Bai heard Er Gouzi's shout and came back to his senses! His face also showed excitement.

"Fuck! 5 trillion!"

"Don't be happy yet!"

Yun Tao calmly called Su Bai.

"You're not happy even though you've made a fortune! Yun Tao, don't spoil the fun!"

Huang Qi said somewhat unhappily.

Yun Tao walked to Su Bai calmly and whispered in his ear, "We don't have that much money to pay taxes."
