Chapter 48 Barter

Bai Bing knew he was telling the truth, so she stepped forward and said, "Don't worry about that. If you agree, we can trade in five installments at this time every day at this location."

The little fat boy gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! I'll just consider it as making some friends!"

"I have 30 kilograms here today. Would you like to take them away?"

Ye Xin nodded, handed over the money and the goods, and exchanged 12,000 yuan for 30 kilograms of rice.

The weather was getting hotter and hotter. Ye Xin and Su Jing were both wearing temperature-controlled clothing, so they could still bear it, but Bai Bing was in a terrible situation.

Bai Bing's face was pale, cold sweat was pouring down his forehead, and he was gasping for breath: "Quick! Go home! It's so hot!"

Su Jing was driving the assault boat, and Ye Xin took out a bottle of Huoxiang Zhengqi water from her backpack: "Drink it!"

Bai Bing's eyes lit up, and without saying a word, she took the Huoxiang Zhengqi water and drank it all in one gulp, then she let out a long sigh of relief.

"Luckily you have this! This damn weather can really kill people!"

As he was talking, a man on a rubber boat in front of him reached out his hand to Bai Bing and pleaded in a weak voice: "Good man, give me one! I'm dying of heat!"

Bai Bing turned her head away and didn't look at him. There were too many people like this!

Don’t forget how valuable Huoxiang Zhengqi Water is now. Even if it is not valuable, he can’t save all the people like this!

The assault boat roared past him, and the man lay powerlessly on the rubber boat, apparently no longer having the strength to get up.

She encountered such scenes no less than ten times along the way.

Looking at this hell on earth, Ye Xin sighed: This is just the beginning! The difficulties are still to come!

Of the thirty kilograms of food, three kilograms went to Su Jing, three kilograms went to Bai Bing, and the rest belonged to Ye Xin.

Bai Bing told her that he and Su Jing would go to do the transaction tomorrow, and let Ye Xin go about her own business.

Ye Xin smiled. She knew that Bai Bing was repaying her for the bottle of Huoxiang Zhengqi Water. She didn't hesitate and handed all the cash to Su Jing, letting them be the full agents.

I drove the assault boat towards the dormitory.

Due to the hot weather, the water level dropped very quickly. In just two days, the flood that had originally submerged the second floor and surged onto the third floor had receded below the second floor.

Ye Xin didn't know that some of the neighbors who were taken away from Jinxiuyuan Community had already moved back from the shelter and were planning to clean up their houses and continue living there.

According to them, life in the shelter is also difficult to describe.

In addition to two bowls of soaked rice every day, each person could only get a small spoonful of potatoes, and no vegetables at all.

A dozen people were crowded in a hotel, not to mention sleeping. Even queuing for the toilet took half a day, and the toilet couldn't flush. The whole room was stinking.

Ye Xin has no time to care about these.

She was not idle at all. She went out at around three o'clock in the afternoon. She was going to the mountains to look for those live sheep!

When the weather was the hottest, she and Ye's father wore thermal suits and drove the dashjack all the way to the pig farm they had visited yesterday. Then, based on the pig farm, they searched for the sheep farm nearby.

They found the sheep farm around four in the afternoon. The farm had already been flooded. Ye Xin did not dive down to check, but released the wolf cub to let it get familiar with the smell of the place.

Then he drove the assault boat forward, following the command of the little wolf towards the place where he caught the pigs yesterday.

Since there were people on the mountain, Ye Xin was more careful this time. He and his father confirmed again and again that there was no one within sight before putting the assault boat into the space.

Just like yesterday, they could smell the aroma of barbecue from a distance. It seemed that this person was having barbecue today.

The little wolf led them all the way up. This time, after they had walked not far, the little wolf started barking "Woof woof woof" and ran in the opposite direction of yesterday.

Ye Xin and his father followed closely behind, and they unconsciously had an ominous premonition in their hearts: this time it might not be so smooth!

Sure enough, when the little wolf stopped in front of a row of wooden fences, Ye Xin found that there were more than a dozen goats penned inside.

Obviously, these sheep were caught by someone else and kept here.

The image of the man from yesterday appeared in Ye Xin's mind again. That man was indeed a little strange, but he didn't seem to be unreasonable.

He killed a pig and only took that one away, and did not stop Ye Xin from dragging the remaining two pigs down the mountain.

Ye Xin and Ye's father looked at each other and said, "What should we do now? It's obvious that these sheep belong to that weirdo."

Father Ye nodded: "Let's go find him."

Before he finished speaking, a cold voice rang out: "No need to look for it. Hmm? Why are you here again?"

This person was still wearing the same outfit as yesterday, even his hair was still loose, but his eyes were so sharp that people dared not look him in the eye.

Father Ye smiled and said, "Little brother, we found this place by following the sheep farm at the foot of the mountain. We hope to get two sheep back. Are you willing to barter?"

The man stared at Ye's father for a long time, then looked at Ye Xin and said, "You people are just weird. We've had enough pork from yesterday for a long time, why do you have to have everything?"

Ye Xin frowned. This person spoke strangely. But she couldn't tell what was strange about it.

Ye Xin smiled and said, "My family wants to raise a group of sheep, but it's hard to find them now, so I have to trouble you. Just name a price, and I'll do it as long as I can do it."

The man looked at Ye Xin with a twinkling gaze, and slowly said, "I want salt. Do you have any?"

Ye Xin was delighted. She had plenty of salt in her space! As long as he could open his mouth, she would exchange two sheep for him today.

Ye Xin nodded: "That's perfect. I'll take it with me when I go out today. How do you want to change it?"

The man seemed to be in a dilemma. After a while, he held up two fingers and said, "Two catties, two catties of salt for a sheep."

Ye Xinsi didn't hesitate at all: "Deal! I want two, one male and one female."

Unexpectedly, the man smiled and shook his head, then jumped down from the huge rock, as light as a swallow: "I'll only change one."

Ye Xin: ...

Father Ye looked at the man's skills and fell into deep thought again. With his skills, what supplies could he not find? Why did he have to eat raw meat and drink blood in this mountain, even exchanging sheep for salt?

Father Ye nodded on behalf of Ye Xin and said, "Okay! Let's switch! But we have to choose the sheep ourselves."

The man had no objection, so Ye Xin reached into her backpack, took out two packets of salt and handed them to the man.

The man took the salt and gently stroked its packaging bag with his hand, as if he saw some precious treasure.

After a long time, he stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation, allowing Ye Xin and Ye's father to choose for themselves.

Father Ye pointed to the one at the back and said, "Xinxin, this is it."

Ye Xin looked up and immediately understood what her father meant.

This sheep has a big belly, which is obviously more than twice as big as the other sheep. The grass here is not lush, so it seems that it is not because it has eaten too much, but because it is pregnant!

Ye Xin couldn't help but give a thumbs up to her father's observation ability. She had also been watching here for a long time but didn't find the pregnant sheep.

She nodded and was about to step over the fence, but before she took a step, her arm was suddenly grabbed by a big hand.

Ye Xin turned around and saw that strange man holding her back. Ye Xin's eyes shone: "Why? Want to regret it?"
