Li Bowen cursed and punched and kicked Wang Huilan, who cried out in pain. Li Xiyue, who was standing to the side, thought the dog-eat-dog drama was really entertaining and felt extremely comfortable.

After watching the play, Li Xiyue put her package inside and went to Grandma Zhang's house.

Just then, Liu Chunmei returned with the money and tickets. She took the money and tickets, counted them, handed over the house deed, and went to transfer the property. After Liu Chunmei left the next day, she would have Liu Chunmei's family take the house away.

After leaving Grandma Zhang's house, Li Xiyue went to the scrap yard again. She had heard that you could find treasures at scrap yards in this day and age, so since she was already there, she decided to try her luck.

The scrap yard was a state-owned enterprise, with a secretary, committee members, and sorting clerks, and someone on night duty.

There were guards at the gate, and unauthorized personnel were not allowed to enter. Li Xiyue gave the gatekeeper a penny and said she wanted to go in to find some newspapers to paste on the windows. The gatekeeper saw that she was just a young girl and didn't make things difficult for her, so he let her in.

Inside, the walls were plastered with the words "No Smoking," and there were stock clerks organizing the messy goods.

Li Xiyue looked around and found several out-of-print medical books in a pile of waste paper. The pages were yellowed, and they were obviously passed down from her ancestors.

What a waste!

During this era, countless precious ancient books and cultural relics were lost in China. In the chaos of the times, not only were talented people lost, but good things were also buried.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, he put the medical book into his spatial storage and then took out several pieces of calligraphy and paintings, all of which were masterpieces by famous artists.

Among a pile of broken porcelain, they found some seemingly inconspicuous but actually expensive antiques, some dark wooden boxes with hidden secrets, and even a few pieces of gold covered in mud.

Sure enough, you can find treasures here.

Li Xiyue didn't dare stay too long, fearing it would arouse suspicion. She put the items into her spatial storage, took some newspapers, and left.

It was nearly evening when Li Xiyue came out of the scrap yard. She was hungry, so she decided to go to the state-run restaurant for dinner and pack some cooked food to eat on the train.

There were quite a few people eating at the state-run restaurant. Li Xiyue looked at the menu, ordered a plate of minced pork and eggplant and a plate of green vegetables, and handed the waiter a few newly bought aluminum lunch boxes to pack some meat buns, pancakes, rice and the like.

Just as the waiter was about to speak, Li Xiyue took out the money and tickets. Seeing the thick stack of money and tickets in her hand, the waiter almost bit his tongue and quickly swallowed his words, lowering his head to calculate the price.

"A total of six yuan, two jin and two liang of grain coupons, and one jin and six liang of meat coupons."

Li Xiyue handed her the money and the waitress a smile, took the lunchbox, and turned to leave.

Li Xiyue found an empty seat and sat down to wait.

"Woof woof woof..."

Suddenly, Xiaobai's cry came from inside the space.

Li Xiyue frowned. Xiaobai said someone was following her.

Who would be following her? She changed her appearance several times today while shopping, and she wasn't too conspicuous, so she shouldn't have attracted attention.

"There are two groups of people, Yueyue."

There are two other groups of people?

Following Xiaobai's suggestion, Li Xiyue casually glanced at the two groups of people. They were all men, two in each group, all wearing baseball caps. One group was wearing a Zhongshan suit, and the other was wearing a suit vest and leather shoes.

A combination of Chinese and Western elements.

According to Li Xiyue's analysis, the two groups of people were not together and did not know each other, because they did not make eye contact at all.

The food was ready, and Li Xiyue ignored them, went to the window to get her food, and ate it heartily.

Li Xiyue was so happy that she almost cried because she hadn't eaten such fresh food in a long time.

In the apocalypse, people often don't know where their next meal will come from. Food is either moldy, smelly, or consists of mutated plants and rotting flesh, none of which are edible for humans.

Although resources are scarce in this era, the ingredients are fresh and uncontaminated, unlike the things before the apocalypse, which were either full of pesticides and hormones or had ingredient lists that were longer than life itself.

Shaking her head to shake off her worries, Li Xiyue focused on her meal, eating with great relish.

After eating and drinking her fill, Li Xiyue left the restaurant with the takeout container.
