As the three of them were eating breakfast, Leng Yi suddenly said, "By the way, I ran into Zhang Wei yesterday—the soldier we rescued."
"Oh, what's wrong?" Yang Qing asked, taking a bite of the bun.
"Didn't you meet him when you went to Biyuan Community that day? You were trying to run away at that time. How did you get in?" Leng Yi asked.
Yang Qing paused holding the chopsticks, and Lu Lin also looked over. She didn't know what happened that day yet.
"I was planning to go in and get some information that day, but I happened to run into Lin Zhen and her brother, Lin Hao, nicknamed Mouse. They were being beaten by people from the Hong'an Society, and I helped them kill them."
"They were being robbed by members of the Hong'an Society while they were out exchanging supplies. They were even detained and forced to help exchange supplies, while they hid in the dark and killed and robbed people."
"Originally, Lin Zhen said he wanted to leave, but when Haozi heard that I wanted to go in to get information, he said he could take me in, so we went in."
"What happened next?" Leng Yi looked at Yang Qing. "Zhang Wei said everyone inside died. Did it have anything to do with you?"
Yang Qing looked at Lu Lin, hesitated for a moment, and nodded. Since she was with Leng Yi, she didn't want to hide it from him.
"I did it. One time, Linlin and I went to my old company to look for supplies. My previous company was engaged in the procurement of Chinese herbal medicines. Later, we found some precious medicinal herbs and a box of ricin in the boss's safe."
"You were the one who taught me how to open the safe."
Leng Yi felt a little helpless.
"I thought it would be helpful to have an extra way to survive in this apocalyptic world, so I brought it back. When I went there that day, I actually wanted to find out about the situation of the Hong'an Society. Of course, it would be best if we could kill their leader, so they wouldn't have the energy to deal with us."
"Who knew I'd get the chance? When Haozi brought me in, they were roasting mutton. I pretended to accidentally knock over the mutton and put poison in it..."
"Do you know how dangerous that is? If you can't get out for a while, you will be in danger as well..." Leng Yi's face suddenly turned cold.
Lu Lin also forgot to eat the buns, so the situation was indeed dangerous.
"If that really comes to the point, I will naturally find a way to escape." Yang Qing pouted.
Lu Lin knew that she was referring to the space, but she was with Haozi at the time and probably didn't dare to expose the space. If she didn't bring him with her, he would be sent to his death.
"And it'll take some time for the poison to dissipate. I'll find a way. But luckily, the rats were smart and we got out right away, so we're fine."
"At that time, I had already thought of an escape route. I could just jump out of that big tree and out of the wall. Who knew you would come?"
Leng Yi was a little helpless. How could he know that Yang Qing was also in there? If he had known, he would have told Zhang Wei and the others a day later.
"That kind of ricin is very serious. Be careful in the future and try not to use it if possible." Leng Yi said.
"Of course I know, this is my specialty." Yang Qing raised his eyebrows.
Leng Yi tapped Yang Qing's nose with a doting look on his face, "I know you're amazing!"
"Hey, it's not good to consider the feelings of single people." Lu Lin pulled the corner of her mouth, "Stop showing off your affection all the time."
Yang Qing smiled. She herself didn't know that love could really change a person.
In the past, she always thought that she was a very calm person and she would never act coquettishly or show affection. However, after having a boyfriend, she did some things unconsciously without realizing it.
Of course, I only behave like this in front of the person I like. If I were outside, I would definitely be more restrained.
Leng Yi is actually a very cold person in normal times, but he is like this in front of me, probably because he likes me very much.
"Do you want to go out for a walk after dinner? The barter market at the department store has opened again." Leng Yi said.
"You can go and take a look." Yang Qing nodded.
After breakfast, Lu Lin stayed behind. The two of them put on down jackets, gloves, scarves and hats, changed into ice skates, and wrapped themselves up tightly before going out.
Yang Qing carried a backpack as usual so that he could hide his tracks when taking things from the space.
When we got to the trading market, there were quite a lot of people selling things.
Just take a piece of cloth and place it at your feet, and put your things on it.
The weather was too cold, and many people were breathing out air and stamping their feet while greeting passers-by.
Seeing Yang Qing and Leng Yi wearing brand new down jackets, ice skates on their feet, holding hands happily, they were obviously rich people. They must have good things, so they greeted them warmly.
"You want calligraphy and paintings? Authentic works by Zhang Daqian. Only ten kilograms of grain!"
"Want a gold bracelet? 24K pure gold, made using ancient methods, passed down through generations..."
"Do you want shoes? Suede ones, very warm, with fur inside."
When Yang Qing saw the shoes, they were extremely dirty. They might have been taken off a dead person. Even if people nowadays don't despise dead people, aren't they afraid of getting athlete's foot?
"No, no!" Yang Qing shook his head.
Suddenly someone bumped into him. Leng Yi pulled Yang Qing and kicked the man out.
"What's wrong?" Yang Qing looked over.
"He's a thief, he wants to cut your bag." Leng Yi looked at the man coldly. When the man saw that he was found out, he crawled away.
"Be careful!" Leng Yi said, "Do you want me to help you carry your bag?"
"No need!" Yang Qing shook her head. Her backpack was just a cover-up. There was nothing in it now.
Leng Yi did not insist. He took her hand and was about to leave when another person rushed over. Leng Yi stepped in front of Yang Qing, but the person suddenly called out, "Sister!"
When Yang Qing saw that it was Haozi, he smiled and nodded, "You are here too, where is your sister?"
"My sister didn't come today." Haozi looked at Leng Yi and saw them holding hands. He couldn't help but ask, "Is this my brother-in-law?"
Yang Qing smiled and didn't deny it, "This is my boyfriend."
Then he said to Leng Yi, "This is the rat I told you about."
Leng Yi nodded lightly at Haozi.
Haozi laughed and said, "Brother-in-law is so handsome, he is a perfect match for you. Sister, do you want to change something today? Come to me!"
"What do you have?" Yang Qing asked.
"You can have whatever you want," said the mouse.
Leng Yi couldn't help but look at Haozi. Do they have such connections?
"Do you have pork?" Yang Qing asked. He had bought it from Zhang Nian before, but now that he had Haozi, he didn't need to go through Zhang Nian.
We only bought 21 kilograms that time, 3 kilograms per person, and we finished it long ago.
Now she is tired of eating beef every day. She and Lu Lin both like braised pork, so they want to buy some pork.
"Yes, sister, how much do you want?" Haozi lowered his voice.
"How did you change it?" Yang Qing asked. He had used money to buy it before, but now the money was invalid and could not be used.
"Then let's see what you have, like the medicine from last time..."
"The medicine is temporarily out of stock." Yang Qing shook his head. The medicine will become less and less and its value will only increase. It is not cost-effective to exchange it for meat now.
Yang Qing thought that there were quite a few things in his own space, but he couldn’t tell him all of them.
"What do you need?" Yang Qing asked, "Or what do you want to exchange first?"
They are actually middlemen. They exchange things from others and then sell them to others to make a profit from the difference.
But Cai Qin has so much food, they are not short of food, but they must be short of other things.
Haozi took out a list from his pocket and showed it to Yang Qing. Yang Qing saw Durex on it. He already had some, but he wouldn't need it right away. Even if he did, he wouldn't be able to use up all of it in his lifetime.
"How do I change this?" Yang Qing pointed at the word Durex.
Haozi's eyes lit up, "Sister, do you have this? How many are there?"
After saying that, he glanced at Leng Yi, and the meaning was too obvious.
Leng Yi's expression was a little unnatural, as he had never used it before.
