Chapter 17 Chapter 17 Found a base and sold supplies for money (……
Su Qing got up early in the morning and prepared to take Fuguier to the base. When passing by the east wing, he saw that the door was wide open and there was no one inside. He thought that Lu Chen had left again.
It was just right that no one was around, so she could go directly to the base through the teleportation channel. She walked to the fountain and the scene soon changed to the base.
As soon as Su Qing was teleported here, he heard the sounds of laughter and playing. From afar, he saw that the children had all gotten up, and Fang Qing and the other two were washing them one by one.
Putting Fuguier down, Su Qing walked in.
"Ah~ Sister Su Qing, you're here."
"It's that little dog."
"Good morning, Sister Su Qing."
When the children saw Su Qing coming, they all gathered around him.
"Good morning, babies. Did you sleep well last night?" Su Qing bent down and touched a child's head.
"Sister Su Qing, this place is so great. I love it so much."
"Yes, yes, sister, can I live here forever?"
Everyone started talking non-stop.
Su Qing was also very happy when she saw the smiles on the children's faces.
"Okay, those who haven't washed up, come here quickly. After you wash up, I'll take you to have breakfast." Fang Qing stood in front of a basin, holding a towel in her hand and beckoned the children to come over and wash up.
"Sister Fang Qing, I plan to provide the children with a bottle of milk and an egg for free every morning. They look too thin, and it's the time when they are growing, so they need to supplement their nutrition well." Su Qing walked up to Fang Qing and said.
"You actually have milk and eggs?" In the current situation, eggs and milk are quite rare and precious things, and only the decision-makers of each large base can get them.
"Yes, I caught the chickens using a trap I set up in the mountains, and I stumbled upon the cow while searching for supplies. It had just given birth, so I brought it back to raise. There's plenty of milk, so you can just take it from the shelves at the store. I've already set it up."
Fang Qing didn't know what to say at this moment. She was so lucky to have met Su Qing. Joining Su Qing's base was simply the best decision she had ever made in her life.
"Wow~ Sister Su Qing, Tianqi and I are also growing~" Li Xing wailed with an exaggerated expression.
"Put away your exaggerated expression. I've told children all have it. You're children too." Su Qing patted Li Xing's head.
"Sister Su Qing...we don't want them anymore. Let's leave them all to the kids. Li Xing was just joking." Tianqi finished washing the last kid on his hands, walked over and patted him with a towel, then looked at Su Qing and said.
"Yes, Sister Su Qing, I was really joking. We are adults and don't need it. If we want it, we can buy it ourselves." Li Xing turned serious again and said seriously.
"Wait until you two are eighteen before you talk to me like adults, little brats."
"Sister Su Qing, you are only 6 years older than us. Don't always call me a little brat."
"A year older is still older! Little brat!"
Seeing that the children had finished washing up, they took them to the restaurant for breakfast. After the meal, they asked Fuguier to play with the children in the open space outside.
Fang Qing and the other two called Su Qing aside.
"Miss Su, a wooden house suddenly appeared out of nowhere here yesterday. Come over and see what's going on."
"Sister Fang Qing, it's so formal to always call me Miss Su. Just call me Su Qing." Su Qing said as they walked with Fang Qing.
Several people walked to the mission center established by Su Qing yesterday. Su Qing looked at the wooden house and was speechless for a moment. How should she explain it?
"Sister Su Qing, are you an alien?" Li Xing looked at Su Qing with a scrutinizing expression.
Well, can she tell you the truth, Li Xing?
If you think about it carefully, she really is from another planet.
"Are you crazy again? Where do aliens come from in this world?" Fang Qing rolled her eyes at Li Xing.
"Even zombies have appeared, so why can't there be aliens? I used to love studying those mysterious events."
"This wooden house was indeed built by me, but I'm not an alien, so I can't explain it to you in detail. Anyway, this kind of thing will happen frequently in the future, so don't take it too seriously." Su Qing explained weakly.
"Sister Su Qing, are you a god?" Wang Tianqi, who had been silently standing aside, suddenly looked at Su Qing seriously and spoke.
…
What's going on in these two kids' heads? They both received nine years of compulsory education and grew up under the red flag. Do they believe science is so difficult?
"Baby, come and repeat with me, believe in science!" Su Qing was speechless.
"But isn't the end of science metaphysics? Sister, you were sent by heaven to save us, right?"
"No, Sister Su Qing was clearly sent by an alien civilization to investigate the Earth."
Listening to the two children quarreling with each other, Su Qing felt a headache. If I am guilty, please punish me severely instead of sending these two middle-aged youths to torture me.
"Alright, alright, stop arguing. This cabin is the mission center. The base will periodically issue missions, and completing them will earn you rewards. You can earn new coupons by completing missions."
After explaining the wooden house, Su Qing planned to continue looking for supplies to upgrade the base. The current situation of the base was such that there was no place for new recruits to live, so she had to speed up the progress.
Leaving Fuguier here, Su Qing talked to a few people and left.
There was no plan for today, so Su Qing just found a road and drove on. After about two hours, a tall concrete wall gradually appeared in the distance.
Su Qing got out of the car in advance, parked the car, and walked over slowly.
As she got closer, she found that there was a roadblock ahead and it seemed to be a base.
She was about to turn around and leave, but then she thought again, maybe she should go in and take a look. It was usually difficult to see anyone outside, and if she went in, maybe she could recruit some people for the base, which would be good. Her base was most in need of people right now.
Su Qing took out a backpack from his backpack, put some food and supplies in it, picked up some dust from the ground and rubbed it on his body and face, making himself covered in dust, and then walked forward.
Su Qing walked inside for a while, bypassed several roadblocks, and finally reached the bottom of the concrete wall.
There was a long queue at the door, and people stopped in front of a booth one by one to register to enter. There were six people standing around the booth, with guns slung over their bodies, walking around and patrolling.
After waiting for a while, we finally arrived at Su Qing.
"Sign." The man in the booth said to Su Qing.
"I don't."
"New here? You need to hand in supplies or new coupons to enter our base. It's 5 new coupons a day, 30 new coupons a month, or you can use supplies of equal value." The man frowned and said impatiently.
Su Qing thought for a moment, then took out a new 5-yuan voucher and handed it over. "I'll pay for one day first."
"You must leave the base before 5pm tomorrow. You need to look at the sign before doing anything inside. Don't take any chances. If you want to stay, come back to me, pay the fee, and take the sign to the observation room on the right." The man took the money and handed Su Qing a small blue iron sign. "Next."
Su Qing looked at her own card and found that some people had blue cards while others had red cards. She thought this was the difference between temporary and permanent residents. She walked to the right while looking.
There were two tents there, labeled men's and women's.
She walked into the women's tent, where a woman was sitting and reading a book.
"Are you hurt?" Seeing Su Qing come in, the woman looked up and down at Su Qing.
"No."
"Put your hands out and turn around so I can see."
Su Qing slowly turned around on the spot.
"Let's go." The woman glanced at it casually and then lowered her head to read the book in her hand.
This is too casual... I feel like there's no point in checking. Su Qing walked out of the tent with a confused look on his face.
Holding the sign, Su Qing entered the base smoothly. There was a square in front of him and rows of small bungalows behind it. It seemed that the base was not very big.
The pedestrians walking in groups of three or four were all wearing shabby clothes, and everyone was walking quickly with their heads down. Su Qing walked inside for a while and saw a small pavilion with an information center.
She walked over, looked at the sleepy person sitting inside, and said, "Hello, I think..."
Su Qing was interrupted before he could finish his words. "One day's accommodation in a multi-person room costs 5 new coupons, a single room costs 20 new coupons, a private room costs 100 new coupons, and long-term stays are charged separately. Walk 100 meters ahead from the trading market." The person inside didn't even open his eyes. He spoke in an impatient tone and ignored Su Qing.
"Uh...thank you."
She didn't plan to live here, so she thought of going to the trading market.
"Hey, little sister, are you new here?" A person suddenly jumped out in front of me.
"What's the matter?" Su Qing was startled and took two steps back, looking at the person in front of him, who looked quite young.
"Need accommodation? I can give you a discount."
"No need." Su Qing walked away sideways.
"Hey, do you need a guide? I can take you to understand the basic situation of the base." The prince stopped Su Qing and said again.
"No need, please move aside." Su Qing frowned at the person in front of him and was about to leave.
The prince rolled his eyes and stopped Su again, "Then...are you going to the trading market?"
"What on earth are you going to do?" Su Qing stopped and looked at the prince with an impatient tone.
"You look like you're new to our base. I can give you a quick overview. It's not expensive, 10 new coupons, and I offer one-stop service all day." The prince gestured with his palm. "If you don't know the prices here, you'll be at a disadvantage going to the market. This price is definitely worth it."
Su Qing thought about it and realized that she really had no idea about the prices outside, so it would be okay if someone could explain it to her.
"It's too expensive, 5 new coupons."
The prince looked embarrassed, as if he had suffered a great loss. He hesitated for a long time before speaking: "Well, since you're new here, let's be friends. Five new coupons is five new coupons."
"Deal." Su Qing handed him a 5 new coupon.
"Hey, thank you, boss. My name is Prince, you can just call me Xiao Wang. What do you want to know?" Prince took the money, with a flattering smile on his face, and treated Su Qing respectfully.
