Chapter 692: I don’t help for free, I don’t do charity

A few casual words.

But every word carries enough weight.

Sheng Fei's heart, which had been hanging in the air, landed safely because of the last firm words.

His cold face showed an excitement that he could hardly suppress.

Then he stood up suddenly.

Chen Jinyue was used to Song Tianyu's loud voice and had also experienced his reckless enthusiasm, so he was a little nervous about this excited reaction.

He subconsciously leaned back, supporting himself with one hand and shielding himself with the other.

"Be more stable! You're married!" Don't rush up and give her a bear hug like others!

Sheng Fei, “…”

He looked at her wary look, was stunned for a few seconds, and laughed out loud.

"I know, don't worry!"

“…”

Seeing that he was excited but didn't make any other movements, Chen Jinyue slowly sat up straight again.

She waved her hand, signaling him to sit down.

Only when someone sat down opposite her did she let down her guard.

Then he said, "But let me make it clear first, I won't help you for free. I don't do charity. When the supply of materials for this batch of crystal core energy trading ends, you can use other valuable items to buy. Gold, jewelry, or anything you think is new, you can bring it to me..."

Keep the suitable ones, and also keep the unsuitable ones but somewhat useful ones.

Anyway, a transaction is always a transaction.

There may be favors, so special care can be given, but it should never be given for free.

A little bit of rice is a favor, and a big bit of rice is a grudge.

She couldn't make such a stupid mistake again.

"Okay, that's definitely no problem!"

Sheng Fei meant the same thing, of course he had to take the thing.

Exchange something that may have commemorative value or special meaning for some food that can fill your stomach.

The gap between prosperous times and chaotic times is obvious, and the directions of pursuit are different.

They seek material satisfaction.

And the pursuit of spiritual satisfaction in prosperous times...

Chen Jinyue nodded in satisfaction, then asked, "What do you want to exchange for this time? This batch of crystal cores you have can be exchanged for quite a few."

"What you gave me last time was much more than that. I should have given you some more..."

"Oh, so you won't change it this time?"

Chen Jinyue specializes in treating all kinds of pretentiousness.

Sure enough, Sheng Fei immediately changed his tone, "Yes! This time there is something urgent that needs to be done!"

Chen Jinyue smiled, "What do you want?"

As he just said, although all the zombies have been eliminated now, the zombie virus is still frightening.

The situation has become so serious that many people reject supplies collected from outside.

The incident started when a middle-aged couple survived and found half of their daughter's body while cleaning up the battlefield.

That was a zombie whose crystal core had been removed after it transformed into a corpse.

They couldn't bear to see their daughter being collectively burned, so they took the body back without permission. As a result, they accidentally scratched the body on the way, and eventually the couple were infected with the zombie virus.

It’s just that the virus is too weak, so the outbreak lasts longer.

They mutated after a week.

Everyone around was puzzled at the time. The city had been cleared of zombies a long time ago, so how could it be infected again?

For a time, people were in panic.

Coincidentally, at this time, someone drank the groundwater next to the burning zombies and was also infected with the virus.

But it is not as serious as the mutation, just confusion, splitting headache and bad temper.

Everyone then realized that burning with fire could not completely eliminate the virus...

"So you want a disinfectant to completely solve this situation?" Chen Jinyue understood and asked.

Sheng Fei nodded, "This is the most serious problem we will face after the separation of management."

Cities are places where zombies are densely populated.

It is also the place where zombies are dealt with on the spot.

If they are really governed separately from the central base, they may be marginalized, the transfer of survivors may be restricted, and they may face different treatment if transferred out.

The game between the top leaders often causes harm to the bottom.

He wanted to keep his promise, but he wanted to reassure the survivors even more.

If you want it faster, give them a completely safe environment.

Chen Jinyue didn't answer in a hurry.

The antidote was formulated by Xianxing, but it is not known whether it can completely eliminate the virus.

If that's not possible, then I still have to ask Xingxing about the complete purification plan for the venom...

"I'm willing to use half of the crystal core this time in exchange for the solution to this problem. Sister, please help me." Sheng Fei thought she was hesitating and immediately put forward his own conditions.

Chen Jinyue raised his eyes to look at him. "It's not a problem with the crystal core. I was just thinking that we don't have the prepared medicine yet, so we might need..."

time.

Before she finished the last two words, she suddenly seemed to think of something.

"Wait, besides causing problems if you drink it, does your contaminated soil and groundwater have any other characteristics?"

“…”

Sheng Fei pondered for a moment, "The crop survival rate is not high, does slow growth count?"

"Okay!" Chen Jinyue's eyes lit up. "Well, bring me some soil samples and I'll try to find a solution using interstellar methods. If I can, I'll have them ready."

Sheng Fei didn't understand what interstellar way she was talking about.

But he also understood that she had dealt with this before and there was a high probability that it could be solved directly.

He couldn't hide his joy, "Okay! I'll go right away!"

"Don't worry," Chen Jinyue stopped him. "Bringing samples is a bit troublesome. Mainly, my place has purification capabilities, and I need a sealed container for you. Come get the container tomorrow. Now, tell me what else you need."

Preparing together also increases efficiency.

Sheng Fei suppressed his excitement and handed over another list.

This was before coming.

He has listed them.

"We still need these. See how many crystal cores are left after removing these. The rest can be exchanged for the previous supplies." He said decisively.

Chen Jinyue nodded, "Okay, I'll have someone prepare it."

…

After discussing the needs, Chen Jinyue sent the person away.

Then he took a photo of the list and sent it to Secretary Peng.

The reply came almost instantly.

【OK】

Some people have a tacit understanding after working together for a long time, so there is no need to ask any questions. Just communicate the time directly, "I'll give it to you tomorrow morning?"

Chen Jinyue, "Okay. We need to prepare a batch of supplies, the same types as before. The quantity should be roughly double what we had last time."

Secretary Peng has a good understanding with me, but that doesn't mean he is not sensitive to quantity.

The second after the message was sent, the phone call came.

Chen Jinyue's hand, which was about to put away his phone, stopped.

Swipe the answer key.

"Hello?"

"Are you sure it's twice as much as last time?" The man on the other end suppressed his excitement and confirmed with her cautiously.

Because the amount last time was already enough.

Chen Jinyue replied, "Yes, twice as much. This is the last batch of crystal cores, so there are a lot. But there's still some that need to be exchanged for the potion we were researching before, the one that restores water to solve the soil problem. Can we still do that?"

Secretary Peng was silent for a moment. "I need to confirm this with them. I'll get back to you later."

Chen Jinyue said, "Okay, thank you for your help."

The topic would have ended here.

But the other party didn't respond and didn't show any intention of hanging up.

Chen Jinyue was a little confused and paused but didn't hang up.

Just wait quietly.

"Are you sure this is the last batch? There will be no more in the future?" Secretary Peng asked with mixed feelings.
