Chapter 88: Exchange for a Pistol

1

The Gu Qingyue brothers and Xu Sa went out together. The three of them were cautious. They walked around the trading market and just when they were about to hire someone to promote the products, they saw Xiao Liu. So they simply gave up two or three kilograms of profit from each item and let Xiao Liu be the contractor.

Ning Yuan told Gu Qingyue a price before leaving. On the way to the market, Xu Sa raised the prices of some things a bit, especially the clothes and cushions that he thought were of no use for the time being. However, there were still many people coming to exchange for these.

At the beginning, only some people came to exchange vegetables and fruits. These things were not a small amount for people who went out to look for supplies. You could find a lot of them by going around the surrounding villages. Although there were a lot, they could not be used as staple food, and the prices were higher than other foods. Twenty kilograms could be exchanged for a bottle of water, and a bottle of water could be exchanged for more than twenty kilograms of flour, which was enough for one person to eat for many days. The next thing is some wheat and corn cobs. Anyone who has been to the village will collect these things. There is a shortage of water and no electricity, so they can't be cooked and can't be eaten directly. It is better to change the water and eat something else when the time comes.

Although the prices of the trading items are high, many of them are useless in the eyes of others, such as seeds and clothes. They cannot be eaten or drunk, and it is uncertain whether they can survive to the future. People with less supplies will not keep them, so there are still many people who come to trade. Some people who don’t have enough supplies to exchange even pool their supplies with others to exchange for a bottle of water.

At the beginning, there were relatively few people coming. But as batches of people who had successfully exchanged went out to spread the word, people from the entire trading market began to flock here. Those who stayed at home became overwhelmed, so Xu Sa simply hired a few more people to help count the supplies.

Around five o'clock in the afternoon, several people who had gone out came back, still driving two cars. They carried some supplies in the cars, but it was hard to tell how much. There were too many people outside the villa and the car couldn't pass, so a few people parked the car not far away, leaving one person to watch the car, and the rest of them walked home with a backpack on their backs.

"How is it?" Xu Sa, who was checking goods at the door, asked immediately when he saw the few people. He glanced at Liu Rui who was behind him and was relieved to see that he was not injured.

"Not bad." Li Zhuang, who was walking in front, was carrying a bulging bag on his back and a snakeskin bag in his hand, which made a jingling sound when he walked.

"What about you guys?" As soon as he asked, he saw the yard with only an aisle left, and answered himself, "It looks good."

Gu Qingyue smiled and nodded, "Go back and rest for a while."

When they entered the house, they found that not only the yard, but also the living room of the villa was piled high. The place where the sofa and coffee table were originally placed was now filled with bags, some new and some old, with flour, rice, and fertilizers with certain brands of words on them. On the first floor, except for the room where Zhuang Mingxu lived, only the kitchen and the bathroom had doors visible; everywhere else was packed.

"Can we take so many things with us?" Xiong Jie asked while drinking a bottle of water handed to him by Xi Shi.

Li Zhuang shrugged his shoulders, indicating that he didn't know, called out "little friend", and handed over the backpack and the bag in his hand.

"I definitely can," Antonio said confidently, and took off his backpack.

Lu Weiyi came out of the bedroom, opened the backpacks of several people and took a look. The water in the backpacks was uneven and the quality was good and bad. He gestured OK to each of them, put away the backpacks and went back to the room. As soon as he entered the door, he carried it directly into the space.

There was a lot of splashing sounds, and as soon as it touched the well water, a clear stinging pain immediately came under the belly button. This time it lasted for about seven or eight minutes. The itchy feeling made Lu Weiyi want to reach out and scratch it. After finally getting through, he turned around and saw that the surrounding area had obviously doubled in size. Lu Weiyi happily left the space.

Zhuang Mingxu took a look at his expression and felt relieved. After all, there were so many supplies outside. If the jade pendant could not expand the space, they would not be able to take so many things with them if they wanted to leave. "How much has it expanded?"

"About twice as much. Should I put everything away now?" He had only collected a portion of the vegetables he had exchanged today, and the space could not hold them all. Now that the space had expanded, Lu Weiyi wanted to put them all away.

"……Don't"

"Um?"

As soon as the jade was taken away, the full space was able to hold things again. Anyone could guess that his space was increased by the jade. Zhuang Mingxu had only spent a short time with the people outside and was not sure about their character. He did not want Lu Weiyi to leak the matter too early.

"Don't do that yet. Someone will surely ask how to take these things away later. Just say that the space is about to be upgraded. It was delayed last night because we were busy catching people. It will definitely be done tonight." Zhuang Mingxu didn't know much about the upgrade of superpowers. He could only roughly say based on Lu Weiyi's previous introduction, "By the way, ask other people about their superpowers, and whether they feel like they need to be upgraded. And tell me, your wood-type superpower has been upgraded."

"Wood-type ability upgrade?" Lu Weiyi does not have wood-type abilities. The little green branch allows him to pretend, but he really has no idea what it will look like after the upgrade.

"Length," Zhuang Mingxu said, "Try it again." If what Lu Weiyi said is true, the jade pendant can expand the space and increase the range of the small green branches, it can also be considered an upgrade.

Lu Weiyi manipulated the small green branch. The original length of 70 to 80 meters had obviously increased to more than 100 meters. It could circle around the room. Lu Weiyi happily asked, "It's grown?"

"Well, remember these, and try not to let people think that your space was upgraded by jade," Zhuang Mingxu reminded again.

"Okay, I understand," Lu Weiyi replied.

While the exchange of materials was in full swing here, the three parties in the base over there had their own thoughts. Zhang Xun was interested in Lu Weiyi and wanted to estimate how much money Lu Weiyi had in his hands. He had been secretly sending people to keep an eye on him, but had not taken any action yet. Liu Qiang had people looking for his men for a whole day but couldn't find them, so he was discussing with several other people what to do. As for Lin Jun, at this time, Lin Jun had come to the door again with the newly found pearl core and jade pendant.

Lu Weiyi just asked people to stop the exchange of supplies and let them take a rest and prepare to eat. The people outside had not yet dispersed, but Lin Jun, Wang Ning and Lin Fei had already walked to the door, followed by seven or eight other people, each carrying a box.

Everyone knew what Lin Jun did and no one asked much questions. Xu Sa let him into the yard and said, "Wait a moment." Then he asked Lu Xi to go in and call Lu Weiyi, "Tell him that Mr. Lin from Longteng is here."

Lu Xi responded and trotted into the room. After a moment, he came out with Lu Weiyi.

"How many have you gathered?" According to Zhuang Mingxu's calculations, Zhang Xun and Liu Qiang's people might all come. Lu Weiyi didn't bother to greet Lin Jun and went straight to the point.

Lin Jun asked the people around him to hand over the box of beads first. Lu Weiyi opened it and took a look. There were twenty-five beads in total. It was a great bargain, but he wouldn't say it.

"Want one?" Lu Weiyi calmly covered it and asked Lin Jun. He believed that Lin Jun would definitely be able to produce something like jade.

Lin Jun said nothing and asked people to open all the other boxes. The boxes were filled with various fine jade ornaments, cabbage, Pixiu, and peace buckles. The quality was far superior to those brought back by Li Zhuang and his men. Before the end of the world, these things alone would have been worth hundreds of millions.

"With these included, can we exchange them for three?" Lin Jun asked Lu Weiyi.

Countless "change, change, change" were rolling in Lu Weiyi's mind, but his face remained calm as he said, "Two. I just like jade. It's okay if I have it, but I won't force it if I don't. My interest in it is not as great as a few beads."

"These things are worth hundreds of millions." Lin Jun felt distressed and unwilling.

"But now it's not even as valuable as a piece of bread," Lu Weiyi pointed out directly.

Lin Jun knew that this was also the fact. He was silent for a moment, then waved to the people behind him, indicating that they should give him something. Xu Sa, who was standing behind Lu Weiyi, asked someone to move the box back, and said to Li Zhuang and Antonio behind him, "You two are good fighters, give me the gun."

Antonio made an OK gesture

He handed the gun that had been prepared in advance to Lu Weiyi from behind, and Li Zhuang also took out one.

"I want the other six. What's the price in exchange for supplies?" Lin Jun asked without taking the gun handed over by Lu Weiyi.

"I won't exchange both." His sword was given by Li Zhuang, and Dean's sword was obviously carried by Antonio before the end of the world. Lu Weiyi had no right to control it. "The others include 1,000 kilograms of vegetables, fruits, eggs and meat, 1,200 kilograms of fast food, and 1,500 kilograms of rice and flour."

Lin Jun was able to have a place in the base because of the abundant supplies. When he heard Lu Weiyi speak, he was still within his acceptance range. He just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard him add, "a handful".

"Why don't you go and rob?" Lin Fei was scolded by his father the last time he went back. He roughly told him about the situation they were facing. He had decided not to confront Lu Weiyi, but he couldn't help but speak at this time.

"You don't have to. I'm not begging you." Lu Weiyi felt speechless every time he saw him. He threw the two pistols in his hands at the people opposite and said coldly, "Get out."

Lin Jun and Wang Ning hurriedly caught the two guns and put them away. Lin Jun glared at Lin Fei and hurried forward to chase Lu Weiyi, "Master Lu, let's discuss this again..."

"There is no room for negotiation." Lu Weiyi originally had a very good impression of Lin Jun, but after hearing what Zhuang Mingxu said last night, he thought that this man might also be thinking of attacking them behind their backs. At this moment, that bit of good impression of him was gone. He turned to look at Lin Jun and said, "The police station will need to bring supplies to exchange for water later. Once their supplies arrive, I may not need your things anymore."

"...Change." Lin Jun almost gritted his teeth as he said this word. Lu Weiyi could see that his body trembled after he said this. "Four, fully equipped."

"Okay, you can transport the things over here," Lu Weiyi said, and then remembered Zhuang Mingxu's words, "If you can't bear to part with them, you can continue to look for beads to exchange for them tomorrow."

"You're not leaving tomorrow?" Lin Jun was surprised.

"Mingxu almost lost his leg due to the medicine. Let's go to the pharmacy to find medicine tomorrow and leave the day after tomorrow." Lu Weiyi's expression was indifferent and it was hard to tell whether it was true or not.
