Traveling through the sword to engage in military industry

From the outside, you couldn't tell what this cave system was. The entrance was just a flat limestone opening, about 2 to 3 meters high. Standing outside, it looked like the mouth of a catfish, dark and bottomless.

It was like an endless abyss, quite eerie.

Fortunately, Ren Zhong was no longer an ordinary person. He had spent several nights in various caves in the wild.

Ren Zhong mustered his courage and stepped into the cave. His eyes darkened at first, but as they adjusted to the environment, he saw stalactites of all shapes and sizes. Some resembled monkeys or tigers, while others connected the ceiling and floor of the cave like pillars, making the entire cavern uneven.

"Hiss, could this be the arrival of some great immortal? Is the clear spring water beneath the stalactites something that can grant immortality with a single sip?"

Strange thoughts flashed through Ren Zhong's mind, and he involuntarily walked further inside. After about ten meters, the height of the cave suddenly increased, as if a large belly had opened up into a new world. The cave height rose to about ten meters, and the width also became more than ten meters.

One side of the cave was flat, damp, and covered with gravel, while the other side was a shallow, dark river about a meter wide. As less and less light from the outside penetrated, the cave became increasingly dim. Ren Zhong cautiously walked five or six hundred steps further in before the cave began to narrow, becoming a dark crevice just over a meter wide. The underground river also began to deepen, and the bottom could no longer be seen.

Ren Zhong could barely see anything anymore and had to stop there. He roughly estimated that the length of the cave he had walked through was about 300 meters. Considering the width of about 10 meters on both sides, the estimated area was about 3,000 square meters.

"What a great place!" A thought suddenly arose in Ren Zhong's mind. This place was easy to defend and difficult to attack. With just a squad using two or three heavy machine guns to block the entrance, even a massive army outside couldn't get in!

It was impossible to deploy troops in this place, and the cave was so deep that bombs dropped from the sky wouldn't reach. There was also an underground river inside, so there was no shortage of water. After storing enough food, a small number of troops could hold out for a long time.

Therefore, turning this place into an armory seemed like a good choice.

As for destroying these bizarre stalactites, which might deprive future generations of a natural tourist attraction, that couldn't be helped.

Now that even his life wasn't guaranteed, he couldn't worry about leaving a place for future generations to play. Ren Zhong didn't consider this cost at all.

Ren Zhong didn't expect to have such an unexpected gain on this trip, finding a geomantic treasure land for a future armory!

Returning to the cave entrance, Ren Zhong found a dry spot and gathered a pile of dry grass, preparing to stay here for two days before returning.

Back in the main world, Ren Zhong drove to the suburbs and, following the map, found the Huangshui Renewable Resources Market.

"Professional recycling of scrap copper!"

"Large-scale recycling of various stainless steel!"

"Lingfei Professional Metal Recycling!"

"Huiliu Scrap Metal Recycling!"

Sure enough, this was a concentration of metals.

Seeing this, Ren Zhong randomly found an empty space to park his car.

Then he walked into a shop with the sign 'Scrap Copper Recycling'. "Boss, how much for scrap copper?"

"Brass scraps are 40 yuan per kilogram, and copper is 56 yuan per kilogram! Boss, how many kilograms do you have? We offer preferential rates for large quantities." The young man guarding the shop glanced at Ren Zhong, assuming he was there to sell scrap copper, and casually quoted the usual market price.

"Boss, I'm here to buy copper plates. What's the price for copper plates made from recycled copper?" Ren Zhong smiled and corrected the boss, seeing that he had misunderstood.

"Oh, boss, how much do you want? If you're buying by the ton, I can give you a preferential price of 55,000 yuan per ton for brass plates and 65,000 yuan per ton for copper plates." The young man's eyes lit up, and he began to show some interest.

"Boss, that price difference is a bit big. You buy brass for 40,000 yuan per ton and sell it for 55,000 yuan. Can you make it a little cheaper? If the price is right, I can take 2 or 3 tons without a problem." Ren Zhong saw that the price of copper materials here was indeed much cheaper than the copper ingots he had bought before. Most importantly, even if you bought several tons of recycled materials, they wouldn't ask you about the purpose.

The price of first-hand brass ingots he bought last time was 70,000 yuan per ton.

Thinking of this, Ren Zhong couldn't help but feel secretly happy. However, the price quoted by the boss must still have some leeway. He still needed to bargain more. It was really hard work to transport things across dimensions, and the money he earned was hard-earned money.

"Boss, if you're serious about buying, I can give you a discount to 54,000 yuan for brass plates. I really can't go any lower than that. Look at my shop and the processing involved, there's really not much profit margin. I'm just trying to move some volume and make a friend." The young man stood up, took out a soft Zhonghua cigarette, and said, "Boss, come on, have a cigarette and let's go inside to talk slowly."

Although the shop owner was young, he was quite skilled in interpersonal relationships.

Seeing a potential customer, his attitude immediately became much friendlier.

"Thanks, I don't smoke. Boss, how about this? Give me your best price. If it's suitable, I'll buy about a ton of copper plates every month. We can have a long-term business relationship, and we can both make a little profit, striving for a win-win situation," Ren Zhong said.

"Then, boss, what price are you offering? I'll see if I can give you the lowest possible price," the young man said, putting the cigarette back into the cigarette case.

"50,000 yuan. I'll buy a ton every month, with a minimum commitment of 2 years. If we agree, we'll settle it, and I won't go to other places," Ren Zhong said as he walked into the shop and sat down next to the boss to bargain.

In fact, based on his purchase volume, the total difference was only a few tens of thousands of yuan. For Ren Zhong now, that money was indeed not much.

"52,000 yuan, I really can't go any lower. I'm not even making a profit, just trying to make a friend and recover some funds." Perhaps Ren Zhong's firm attitude had shaken the other party, and the young boss gritted his teeth and lowered the price again.

"I'll go look around again." Ren Zhong got up to leave, and the young boss, seeing Ren Zhong getting up and walking out the door, really preparing to go to another store, his face changed again and again, and finally shouted when Ren Zhong was about to walk to the second store.

"Boss, come back! I'll sell it to you at a loss!" After all, it was a million-level deal. It was already the end of the lunar year, and the young boss thought that even if the profit margin was thin, it was better to recover some funds to celebrate the New Year.
