Chapter 1749 Era
Lu Ping'an hasn't been so relaxed for a long time.
"Is it really possible? I still have the phone number of the security service company. I can hire two professionals. Uh, although I can indeed take a cut, this way we can go further."
At this time, the little girl was still happily promoting the product to Lu Ping'an.
"Is this still possible?"
"Is this prop real? Can it really turn people into cats without any side effects?"
"Introduction videos of the 37 classic martial arts schools in China? So cheap? Is it true?"
But before they had taken a few steps, this girl became much more excited than Lu Ping'an.
Seeing this, she herself probably had no chance to enter these areas, and everything looked like a novelty to her.
".You haven't really been here before?"
Generally speaking, if the tour guide behaves like an amateur, customers will be polite and pretend not to notice, but Lu Ping'an is obviously not such an honest person.
"I've been here. I've waited outside a few times and sent people over. But I don't dare to come here very often."
Knowing that she probably couldn't hide it anymore, the girl was quite honest.
But even when she admitted her shortcomings, her eyes were still fixed on the performance on the stage.
"Is this the extraordinary person? So amazing."
“Oh, just two animals.”
The two exotic creatures wearing boxing gloves and gorgeous armor, beating each other at high speed, are amazing warriors in Wang Sisi's eyes, but in Lu Ping'an's eyes, they are just animals in clothes.
This is the second floor of the mall courtyard, which is the shopping area for food, clothing, housing and transportation. In the center of the first floor is a fight performance, while the rest of the first floor is a variety of "super stores".
The overall layout and atmosphere here surprised Lu Ping'an a little.
When he heard about the black boxing, he originally thought it would be a crowded basement audience area with cages filled with blood and stench.
Now, apart from the slightly special items sold, the prices are obviously too high, and it is just an ordinary commercial district.
In the clean shopping mall environment, the performers were indeed fighting each other, but they were wearing so many protective gear that Lu Ping'an was speechless. Lu Ping'an could see that both sides were really trying to kill each other, but their skills were so poor that even slightly enchanted protective gear could not penetrate them.
Sitting in the outdoor coffee area on the second floor, enjoying the extremely expensive but subtle special coffee while watching the various "fighting performances" below, Lu Ping'an also had a lot of feelings.
He realized that this gray area was not prepared for extraordinary people at all, but was indeed a commercial area for ordinary tourists and residents.
However, its business characteristics are probably extraordinary.
The top-ranked large cities in the country often take the lead as pilots when implementing reform policies.
The layout and merchandise here are just some low-quality toys for real professionals, but they are magical and expensive treasures for ordinary people. For Lu Ping'an, they should be the omen and epitome of a new era.
"The first floor mainly sells various protective gear and security equipment. Not only are there few offensive weapons, but they are also obviously weak. The two losers fighting each other upstairs are not likely to be protective gear salesmen, are they?"
As an expert in this field, Lu Ping'an is a senior quality inspector of Super Armed Forces. He can find out the material and cost just by touching it lightly.
Don’t be fooled by the fact that there are so many people who only look at the numbers but don’t buy them. The string of zeros above makes people shake their heads. Lu Ping’an estimates that if the merchant sells one, he will lose at least 10% if there is no subsidy.
Moreover, the obviously affordable material selection and the simple, rough but durable enchantment selection make this "cheap" extraordinary item extremely cost-effective.
"It's unlikely to be used against the fishmen, but it's very possible to deal with the low-level incidents I encountered when I was on special duty, just to save my life."
These are inferior products that even soldiers would not accept, but in the past they were clearly at the level of military equipment.
It seems that they will become common tools in every household, similar to umbrellas and microwave ovens, to increase their chances of survival in extraordinary events.
In fact, when Lu Ping'an was asked to do some shopping down there, he would walk sideways on the street where the special forces used to be.
The changes of the times are still very obvious. The high-quality equipment issued by the special forces in the past are no longer comparable to the "cheaply sold" household items today. Lu Ping'an even saw the extraordinary baseball bat and protective gear combination endorsed by popular stars, as well as the cartoon bear combination for children.
"When low-level supernatural items become ordinary commodities, it is not as simple as simply improving the combat power level."
In Lu Ping'an's opinion, this means that many professionals will be able to enter the industry easily and start hunting and training smoothly. It means that there will be a time when warriors will appear in every household. It is inevitable that everyone will become extraordinary. The next step is to see what percentage of people reach the militia standards.
".No, no, why are you thinking about work again."
Lu Ping'an shook his head and put aside all the distracting thoughts. Everyone else came here to have fun with their family, but he was the only one who thought about the supply chain and cost when he saw the goods, and began to estimate the policy objectives for pushing all of this forward.
"Sure enough, it's because my mentality has gotten old."
Lu Ping'an sighed and cast his gaze towards the "fierce confrontation" below, trying to have fun with the people. After five seconds, he looked away, fearing that he would not be able to control himself and slap these two noobs to death.
The little girl, however, was watching the performance below and was extremely excited.
When the fight got exciting, he would wave his fists from time to time to express his excitement, but if he saw a little blood, he would cover his eyes while screaming, not daring to look at it at all.
"This girl, if she loses the battlefield, she won't survive more than one episode."
This actually provides some inspiration for Lu Ping'an. It seems that this policy of "hiding troops among the people" has not been implemented for long, otherwise the audience would not be so excited.
But if you think about it carefully, it is natural that before the balance of war is completely tilted, all resources must be supplied to the first-line and second-line preparation corps.
Even if there are resources and needs, they will not be used to make these "toys". All materials will be used on actual combat-grade armor.
Even if they are inferior products, they can be used as bricks and stones for bunkers and trenches after being reinforced and piled up. There is no reason to throw them away and sell them.
"Dad, I want this bat!"
"Whip, Mom"
The children and teenagers passing by behind were still clamoring for the "weapons", which were the inferior goods that Lu Ping'an could not even imagine. He dared to sell this thing, and the next day he was blocked at the door and scolded.
The armor is still usable, but these weapons are pure garbage. That’s not to say, at least the various looks are quite cool and in line with the trend of the times.
There are colorful scales flashing on the sticks, LED lights on the whips, and most of the so-called weapons are bladeless.
"It has no power enhancement at all. The only enchanted property is probably 'attack against pollution'. Its function is probably to 'exorcise' demons a little bit but it can't kill people."
Lu Ping'an shook his head. There were low-quality weapons used to attract attention, and there were real life-saving protective gear. It seemed that times had really changed.
".Is this a hint and expectation that everyone will face a war between the extraordinary and the supernatural?"
