Chapter 315 Chapter 317 Wang Qirui's Plan
"Okay, Sister Rong." Rong Xianxian spoke in a gentle tone with a smile on her face. Wang Qirui quickly agreed and felt a little relieved. As long as Sister Rong didn't blame him, no one else would say anything.
Wang Qirui turned around and prepared to leave.
"Hey, Xiaorui, what does she mean?" Che Miaomiao saw that something was wrong and asked without giving up.
Wang Qirui saw the deep disgust on Cui Lie's face and quickly pulled Che Miaomiao, "Sister Miaomiao, come with me first. I will explain to you later."
Che Miaomiao wanted to go to Cui Lie and show her courtesy, but when she saw Cui Lie's expression, she couldn't help but back off.
Che Miaomiao was pulled away by Wang Qirui. Cui Lie turned to look at Xia Kai. Xia Kai quickly recounted what he had seen and heard today when he and Wang Qirui went out, including the details of his encounter with Che Miaomiao.
Rong Xianxian and his friends also had lunch outside at noon. Unlike Wang Qirui and his friends, they went to an ordinary street shop, which was a barbecue shop. They used very common monster meat, but the taste of the barbecue was different. The sauce used for the barbecue was slightly sweet and fragrant, and the spiritual energy in the barbecue was more abundant than barbecue made by ordinary methods. The barbecue was not marinated with the common barbecue ingredients before the apocalypse, but a sauce with a unique taste. It should be a new seasoning developed from plants that appeared after the apocalypse.
This small shop seems to have just opened. The furnishings inside are still brand new, and the prices of the barbecue are not high. I believe it will soon attract more diners.
Rong Xianxian spent 200 work points to visit the store's kitchen and learned the recipe for making barbecue sauce. The main ingredients are a kind of slightly sweet red berry commonly found in the wild and the seeds of a pungent herb. The other ingredients are also relatively common, easy to obtain and low in cost.
The sauce made from such simple ingredients can actually retain the spiritual energy of food when it is cooked. Rong Xianxian doesn't know whether the recipe was developed by the store owner himself or learned from somewhere else. Perhaps, in addition to the common books on martial arts and skills, there are also books on cooking.
"Sister Rong, what do you think Wang Qirui is thinking? Wouldn't it be better for us to send him home safely? Even if he wants to stay in his hometown, no one will force him. Why does he want to leave now?" Jiang Jie asked in confusion.
"This place is very close to his home, and the mercenaries will pass by Wuling. He may feel that he doesn't need to walk the rest of the way with us." Rong Xianxian said lightly.
In fact, Rong Xianxian had some guesses about Wang Qirui's departure now. The biggest feature of Xitang is that weapons are extremely cheap. If he leaves now, he can take away some supplies. These supplies can be exchanged for a lot of weapons in the Xitang safe zone. It is very close to Wuling here. It is estimated that many fellow villagers from Wuling worked here before the end of the world and stayed here. Wang Qirui can use the divided supplies to exchange for a batch of weapons and recruit a group of people. Naturally, he can return home in glory.
Moreover, since moving north, their team has encountered many assassination attempts, and Wang Qirui might also be worried that they will bring danger to his family.
No matter what, it is fate that we are together. If he has his own plans, just let him do what he wants.
"Xiao Rui, did I implicate you? Your captain looked so fierce just now." Che Miaomiao said with some sadness.
"Sister Miaomiao, have you been staying here since the end of the world?" Wang Qirui did not respond to Che Miaomiao's words, but instead asked about her past.
"Yes, yes!" Che Miaomiao answered nervously. She didn't know what Wang Qirui meant by asking this?
"Then do you know what our fellow villagers in Wuling are generally doing? Do they have any plans to return home?" After the end of the world, migrant workers stranded outside usually live together with their fellow villagers.
Wang Qirui just asked casually. When he came to the city, he met a fellow villager working on a construction site. If Che Miaomiao didn't know, he planned to go to the construction site to find the fellow villager first.
"I know. Our fellow villagers in Wuling have a collecting team. They make a living by collecting wild vegetables and fruits around the safe zone. I have several friends in the collecting team." Che Miaomiao replied.
"Really? Since your friend is over there, why didn't you join the collection team?" Wang Qirui asked with some confusion.
"The area around the safe zone is also very dangerous. Although we rarely encounter monsters, there are poisonous insects like spiders and scorpions in the grass. If you are bitten by them accidentally, it can be fatal." Che Miaomiao said with some fear.
If it weren't for the temptation of settling in Beijing, Che Miaomiao would never be willing to leave the safe zone. However, what did that woman mean when she said all good things must come to an end?
"Do you know where the fellow villagers in the collection team live? Since your friend is there, I'll take you there to stay for one night!" Wang Qirui also went to meet them and find out what they thought.
Wang Qirui believes that as long as the time is right, most people would be willing to return to their hometown. Moreover, prices in Xitang are high and life is difficult. Many people need to make a living outside the safe zone. If there is a chance to leave, they will definitely be tempted.
The fellow villagers of the collection team lived in a remote area close to the city wall. There were simple wooden houses there with very low rent and a relatively poor environment. Che Miaomiao seemed to have been here before and was very familiar with this area.
The wooden rooms were crowded one next to the other. It was dinner time and most people were eating. Some were walking back with food they had gotten from the cafeteria. When they saw the two neatly dressed people, they looked inquiringly.
"Zi Mo." Che Miaomiao suddenly stretched out her hand and shouted towards the distance.
A woman with an obvious blue-gray birthmark on her forehead walked over, "Miaomiao, why are you here? Who is this?" The woman named Zimo looked at Wang Qirui curiously. She was very tall, almost as tall as Wang Qirui, and spoke in a crisp voice, sounding like she had a cheerful personality.
"His name is Wang Qirui. He is also from Wuling. He has served in the army. His family and mine are neighbors," Che Miaomiao introduced.
"Xiao Rui, her name is Wang Zimo. She used to work in logistics in Xitang. Her hometown is the village next to ours." Che Miaomiao introduced her to Wang Qirui.
"Hello." Wang Qirui greeted politely.
Wang Zimo's collection team consists of twenty-two people, mainly young and middle-aged men. Including Wang Zimo, there are only five women. Among these twenty-two people, there are three couples, two pairs of siblings, and two pairs of brothers.
Wang Zimo and her brother Wang Rongke are the main fighters in the collection team.
