Yang Guobin and Zhao Qiaozhen had nothing to say and packed their bags dejectedly.
If you don't leave now, you may never have another chance in the future.
Those who stayed behind either starved to death or were killed by wild beasts.
The survivors are not stupid, of course they know what to choose.
Jiang He went to sit in the car first. Everyone would gather after fifteen minutes and set off on time when the time came.
Boom boom boom——
There was a knock on the car door.
Jiang He, who was eating potato chips, patted the crumbs from the corner of his mouth and turned to look at Li Zhan who was standing outside the window.
"What's up?"
Li Zhan was followed by more than a dozen people, including his wife and son, seven or eight elderly people, and pale and weak young people.
"Boss Jiang, can they also take a ride with you?"
Jiang He glanced at the survivors behind him and nodded: "Okay, pay the points."
The mountain road was steep and difficult to walk on, especially when it was so dark. It was easy to be tripped by rocks and branches. By the time they got out of the mountains, they would probably be half dead.
Zhao Qiaozhen mingled with the crowd, hoping to take this opportunity to secure a seat on the bus.
Who would have thought that the woman driving the car would ask for points right away.
They had been trapped in the mountains for so long, how could they possibly get the things she mentioned?
Zhao Qiaozhen pinched her throat and changed her voice, "Boss Jiang, we don't have any gold or silver jewelry on us. Please be kind and help us. Thank you!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a girl standing next to her walked towards the RV and carefully took out a gold necklace from her pocket.
"Boss Jiang, I have gold and silver jewelry."
After that, people came over one after another and took out gold earrings, gold rings, silver bracelets...
Zhao Qiaozhen stood there in a daze, feeling like she was stabbed in the back. She had agreed to have nothing on her!
So, she is the only one who doesn’t have one, right?
Zhao Qiaozhen gritted her teeth and watched the carriage fill up, she was almost furious.
Xiaozhe sat on the soft cushion and couldn't help but exclaimed:
"Wow, it's so comfortable. It's not cold in the car at all. It's even warmer than under a blanket!"
"Yeah, Boss Jiang seems to have turned on the air conditioning. The fare is totally worth it!"
…
Zhao Qiaozhen stomped her feet hard, the jealousy in her eyes almost overflowing.
She is an old lady in her sixties. Can't you give up your seat for her?
If this happened before the end of the world, she would have scolded those young people for being blind, selfish, and not knowing how to give way to the elderly!
However, the situation is different now, and she doesn't dare to act as confidently as she did in the past.
Zhao Qiaozhen could only curse her dead husband for not buying her more gold and silver jewelry when he was alive.
Otherwise, she would be the one enjoying herself in the car at this moment.
…
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, the pink RV left the village committee gate and drove towards the newly opened mountain road.
The mountain road was too dark. More than 200 survivors shared 16 flashlights, which could only illuminate limited areas. Most people had to travel in the dark.
Not only is the speed slow, but there may also be other dangers.
Jiang He let the team walk in front, with the RV following closely behind, turning on the brightest high beam to illuminate the road under everyone's feet.
In an instant, the entire valley was as bright as day. The survivors were no longer so frightened and their pace quickened.
…
At the entrance of Ningxi Base.
Cheng Yan and his group brought a small stool and sat next to the iron gate, staring anxiously in the direction of the mountains.
They didn't dare to go out, so they could only wait here silently.
"Captain, do you think there's still hope for Li Zhan to come back alive?"
Cheng Yan's face was solemn. "It's very dangerous. You saw the wild beasts in the forest just now. I saw five or six of them.
Li Zhan was running alone in the pitch-black valley. If the wild beasts didn't eat him, who would they eat?
unless……"
Seeing that he was silent, his teammate pushed his arm and asked hurriedly: "Unless what?"
"Unless the girl driving the car is kind enough to let Li Zhan get in and get rid of those beasts."
They all saw how sturdy the RV was. As long as Li Zhan could get in, he would definitely be able to escape death.
After waiting for more than six hours, my butt was numb.
A dazzling light finally appeared in the direction of the mountains.
More than ten minutes later, hundreds of shadowy human silhouettes appeared at the end of the road.
The light came from behind and spread to the surrounding space, as bright as the stars in the sky.
Cheng Yan was stunned without realizing it, and when he came to his senses, tears were already streaming down his face.
Catching sight of a familiar figure, a young man quickly ran out the door.
"mom!!"
This cry that resounded through the sky moved everyone present.
The residents of the base were alarmed and after walking out of the dormitory, they were surprised to find that their relatives and friends trapped in the mountains appeared at the door of the new base!
People from both sides ran in both directions, and no one could have imagined that today would be the day they would meet again.
For a moment, loud cries filled half of the base.
…
With Cheng Yan leading the way, Jiang He soon met the base commander of Ningxi base.
She first rented out the mythical beast, collected the rent, and then opened a supermarket.
The worker this time is the little black cat "Meiqiu".
During the polar night, it blends perfectly into the surrounding environment, and no one can find it as long as it doesn't make any sound.
When turning to leave, Jiang He remembered that there was one thing he had not told Meiqiu.
She looked back and found that the little black cat was indeed "gone".
Knowing it was nearby, Jiang He randomly pointed in a certain direction and raised his voice:
"Meiqiu, the supermarket will not be open until tomorrow. You can go back to the animal breeding space to sleep tonight. When you get off work, come to the supermarket to find me."
"Meow~~"
"Yes, Master!"
I only hear the voice but don't see the cat.
Jiang He laughed, this is top-notch, hide-and-seek!
…
After the supermarket opened, residents lined up at the door to apply for points cards.
The Ningxi base is a non-governmental organization. It had never heard of the existence of Shuguang Supermarket before, and very few residents had points.
Most customers can only take out one or two pieces of gold and silver jewelry, and the balance in their points cards does not even reach four digits.
Li Zhan is not used to owing people money, and the same applies to owing points.
Seeing Tuanzi rolling around in the open space, a feasible solution came to his mind. He then found Sun Tiequn and discussed with him how to earn points.
"Uncle Tie, do you remember Boss Jiang saying that the corpses of mutant beasts can also be exchanged for points?"
Sun Tiequn nodded and guessed, "Could it be that you want to go into the mountains and kill mutant beasts? Wouldn't that be too dangerous?"
Li Zhan's eyes sparkled, and he spoke firmly, "With Tuanzi here, he can protect us. The lease doesn't expire until tomorrow afternoon. Before this, Tuanzi can help us with many things!
Three thousand in rent, we can’t waste it, right?”
