"Come and see how the sales of my magic water are going!" Lin Qingqing smiled, sat down on the small stool next to the brazier, sniffed it, and used the tongs to dig out a roasted sweet potato.
"You are the most wanted criminal! How could you come into my store so carelessly?" The store owner was worried. Although he had some power in the base, this woman was too good at causing trouble!
He went back to the counter, counted out some second-order crystal cores, put them into a disposable packaging box, and handed it to Lin Qingqing.
"If you're scared, you can tell them that I'm here to rob sweet potatoes." Lin Qingqing took it without even looking at it. She moved her hands and disappeared.
"Haha." The shop owner laughed perfunctorily. This joke wasn't funny. "...Do you still have this magic water?"
The juice applied externally to the body is so effective that the shop owner was reluctant to sell it and gave it all to his subordinates.
In the last days, money is just a material possession, and improving survival ability comes first.
"Of course I have... I have something you want more." Lin Qingqing peeled the sweet potato and said slowly, "But you don't welcome me."
"Who said that? You are my big customer! Didn't you see? Once you come, I won't do business with other people." The shop owner pointed to the door that he closed because he was afraid that others would see Lin Qingqing entering the store.
Lin Qingqing: "..." He is indeed a profiteer, he can turn black into white.
She took out a ring and handed it to the shop owner.
"What is this? A diamond ring?" the shop owner asked with a frown.
In order to make it look good, Lin Qingqing even took the time to make the space into a platinum ring. Anyway, gold and silver are not valuable now.
Lin Qingqing took a bite of the sweet potato and said vaguely: "There is half a square meter of space that can be used by anyone with special abilities."
The shop owner's hand trembled, and his sharp eyes shot directly at Lin Qingqing.
Lin Qingqing threw away the sweet potato peel and grinned at him, "Do you want to rob me?"
"Yes." The shop owner nodded sincerely, "You must have something better."
"Nonsense!" Lin Qingqing curled her lips, "I hate smart people."
The shop owner laughed out loud, "I'm so stupid..."
Lin Qingqing waited until he had laughed enough, then dusted off her hands and took out a map. "I want to know where the warships, if any, would be docked."
"What do you want to do?" The shop owner shuddered and looked at Lin Qingqing warily. He had also seen the surveillance footage. Without knowing it, Lin Qingqing had become a high-level black and red star in the base.
"Hmm?" Lin Qingqing put away her smile, snorted softly, and glanced at the shop owner with an indifferent look. Isn't he a smart person? He should know what to ask and what not to ask.
The shop owner shuddered and pointed to several locations with trembling hands. "These places are all possible, but I can't be sure right now. It's freezing cold and my people can't leave the base."
Lin Qingqing memorized those positions and asked, "What did **Pharmaceutical Factory do before? Who was the boss behind it?"
The shop owner shook his head: "I'm not sure, I haven't paid attention to it, I just know it's a joint venture."
"I need the real and detailed information of that company. I suspect that this company is inseparable from our current doomsday situation. Can you find out?" Lin Qingqing asked again.
"I'll try my best..." The shop owner was a local and had his own way, but it was hard to say. He'd heard the factory had been bombed, and the official records were definitely not true.
Lin Qingqing thought for a moment and said, "If you can find useful information for me within one day, I will give you a two-square-meter space. As for this ring, it will be considered as a deposit."
The shop owner opened his mouth to bargain, but when he saw Lin Qingqing's expressionless face, his excitement immediately disappeared. What was he thinking! This woman is the only second fifth-level master so far.
And the news he received was that another fifth-level master openly dissuaded others from dealing with her, which showed how terrifying this person was.
"I'll do my best to investigate... How will I notify you when the time comes?" the shop owner unconsciously added a polite tone. Even if there was only half a square meter of space, he could still hide some valuable items, which could even save his life in a critical moment.
"Let's add friends!" Lin Qingqing stretched out her wrist and asked the store owner to scan the QR code on the communicator.
Shop owner: “…” In an instant, it felt like the goddess had fallen from the altar again.
Lin Qingqing had no idea that he had so many things going on in his mind. She was just feeling depressed because she didn't get any useful information.
The several locations that the shop owner pointed out as possible locations for warships to dock were all very far from the land, and in such weather conditions, she could not go out to sea.
After leaving the shop, Lin Qingqing contacted Liu Qiang and told him that Li Shenghua had gone to Beijing, and said that he didn't need to think about returning to the Liancheng base for the time being, as she planned to go there herself.
By the way, ask him to bring people to join the Black Dragon Club.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Qingqing went to find the second brother, gave him a piece of refined flower crystal petals, and told him that Liu Qiang would come. She asked the second brother to give up some industries, shrink the sphere of influence, and streamline the membership.
The Black Dragon Club had a complicated staff with mixed results, so I decided to take this opportunity to have the Second Brother clean things up. Liu Qiang and I went to Beijing together, and sooner or later, he would be found out. Going to the Second Brother would allow us to look after each other.
She really didn't want to go around the world looking for missing people anymore.
After explaining all this, Lin Qingqing said goodbye to the second brother. She felt that there was nothing else to do for the time being, so she wanted to leave Beijing overnight.
"What? You're going back to Liancheng now?" Cai Donghu pulled out the weather forecast for her to see. "Look for yourself, it's minus 39 degrees Celsius outside! It's also minus 15 degrees Celsius in Liancheng!"
This kind of temperature would never exist before the end of the world.
"Then I can't just sit around doing nothing! Besides, this isn't the lowest temperature, right? Historical records show that the lowest temperature at Yanjiao Base was close to -50 degrees Celsius three years after the apocalypse."
Lin Qingqing was also afraid of the cold. Every time she left the space, she felt like she was freezing to death. She couldn't even imagine what would happen if the temperature dropped any lower...
"Find something else to do first!" Cai Donghu was convinced. "Rome wasn't built in a day. It's not even a full year yet in the apocalypse. We have plenty of time. It'll be March in a few days, and the temperature will warm up a bit. It won't be too late to set off back to Liancheng then."
"I want to find Mengmeng, but you said that Mengmeng's location is lost. I want to find Dean Lin, but the sea is so vast, and I don't know if the locations the store owner mentioned are reliable... What do you think I should do?" Lin Qingqing was also depressed. The end of the world without transportation and communication is just like a primitive society.
"I will work hard to make the communicator usable at longer distances." Cai Donghu vowed.
"Dad, you've been researching for fifty years..." The unfilial daughter poured cold water on him.
Cai Donghu: “…” Biological child, biological child, oh no, adopted.
But even though he was picked up, he raised the child with great care.
Recalling Lin Qingqing's childhood, Cai Donghu hesitated for a moment, "How about we go into the quarantine area? Do you remember where I parked the plane last time?"
