Chapter 315 Also joined the army
After dealing with Huang Changjuan, the two did not return to the base, but hid in a mountain.
He took out the bamboo house he had collected before and moved in.
Take out a truckload of high-quality steel bars from the space and place them outside the house. Pour water and mud on them, and try to make the steel bars a little dirtier so that they look like they were dug out from the ground.
After five days of leisurely living in the mountains, the steel bars are a little rusty, and I feel that it is enough.
If it is too rusty, it will affect its quality, and if it is too new, it will be suspicious.
When we reached the foot of the mountain, we took out the steel bars and put them on a truck. The truck was also covered in mud, as if it had just returned from a long journey.
Back to the base, to the trading center.
The previous staff member recognized Yang Qing at a glance, but there was no way they couldn't remember the points from the last transaction, as they had so many points.
"Miss Yang, I haven't seen you for a few days. Do you have any good stuff today?"
Yang Qing smiled and said, "Yes, there is. A truckload of steel bars."
"What? Steel bars?" The man's eyes lit up. This was something the base desperately needed. "I'll go over with you and take a look."
When I walked outside, Leng Yi was leaning against the truck. Many people were gathered around him, talking and discussing where they got the supplies.
"By the way, I haven't asked for your last name yet." Yang Qing asked the staff member next to him.
"No need to mention it, my surname is Lin. Miss Yang, you can just call me Xiaolin." Xiaolin said with a smile.
"Then please ask Xiaolin to see how many points these steel bars can be exchanged for." Yang Qing smiled.
Kobayashi climbed onto the truck from the back and saw a truck full of steel bars. Although they were a little dirty and slightly rusty on the surface, they were obviously high-quality steel.
He has been working in this position for more than a year and has collected a lot of supplies, so he has some good eyesight.
"That's great." Xiao Lin nodded. "Let's go to the scale over there and check the scale."
After weighing the truck, the steel bars were about ten tons, so we calculated them as ten tons, excluding the weight of the truck.
This was all calculated by Yang Qing. He had experience in exchanging points for house purchases in Xia City before, so he took out the items based on the approximate weight.
I exchanged ten tons of steel bars for more than 30,000 points in Xia City. I wonder how much I can exchange for here.
Kobayashi had the truck drive to the warehouse, unload the steel bars, and have the warehouse keeper sign for them.
I took the receipt back to the trading center.
"Ms. Yang, these ten tons of steel bars can be exchanged for 50,000 points." Xiao Lin said with a smile.
They didn't ask where the steel bars came from. They didn't care where the supplies came from, they just collected them.
Some of the supplies of those people outside were found by themselves, some were robbed, and some were obtained by middlemen. They had no control over it.
As long as you enter the military base, it is legal.
"Okay, thank you!" Yang Qing nodded. The points were much more than when he was in Xia City.
Now I have 150,000 points in my points card.
Of course, replacing the deep-sea lifeboat is far from enough.
After exchanging points, the two returned to their own small courtyard, took a shower, and had a good meal.
Leng Jiashan was very surprised when he received the news that they had handed in another truck of steel bars. Once might be a coincidence, twice not, but there might be a third and fourth time. With more times, they might really be able to exchange for a deep-sea life capsule.
No wonder they didn’t want to join the army. It turned out they had already thought about it and had their own plans.
Leng Jiashan was relieved and no longer insisted on persuading them to join the army. He was very pleased that they had the means and could also contribute to the base.
In the evening, Yang Qing and Leng Yi had just finished their meal when the doorbell rang outside.
When Yang Qing walked out, he saw that Li Shengnan, Gao Yang, Lu Lin and the others had all arrived.
"You are here, come in!" Yang Qing was very surprised and quickly opened the iron gate.
"Shengnan, when did you and Gao Yang enter the base?" Yang Qing asked.
"We came here the day before yesterday. We looked for you, but you weren't there. I guess you were out looking for supplies." Li Shengnan said with a smile. "As soon as we left the house today, we heard someone had found a truckload of rebar. I was wondering if it was you."
"I found out it was true. I made an appointment with Lu Lin and the others to come visit you in the evening."
Walking into the house and seeing Leng Yi, everyone called him "Brother Yi". Leng Yi nodded and said, "Are you all here?"
"Why don't you come earlier so we can have a meal together?" Yang Qing said.
Lu Lin put her arm around her and said, "We just wanted to wait until you guys finished your meal before coming back. There are so many of us now, how can we have the nerve to eat at your place?"
"That's no big deal. We can still afford a meal." Yang Qing smiled.
"That's what I said. They are so capable, how could they lack a meal?" Gao Yang said with a smile.
Everyone sat down, and Yang Qing took out a bunch of snacks and washed some fruits.
"Look, they even have fruits, are they afraid that we will eat them all out of money?" Gao Yang said.
Everyone laughed. Indeed, Yang Qing and his friends were living better than anyone else.
Yang Qing sat down and asked Li Shengnan, "Did you join the army when you came in yesterday, or are you a freelancer?"
"I've joined the army." Li Shengnan smiled. "We know what we are capable of. We don't have your abilities, so we'd better stay in the army. We won't have to worry about food and clothing, and we can also contribute to the country."
"We all think so," Li Liang and the others also said.
"It's great that we can all be together and do something. It's worth our struggle in this apocalypse for so long." Yang Qing said.
"That's all thanks to you and Brother Yi, otherwise we might not be alive today."
Everyone looked at Yang Qing and Leng Yi, their hearts filled with gratitude.
Yang Qing looked at them. Except for Pei Chuan who came later, Lu Lin, Wang Min, Li Shengnan, Gao Yang, Li Liang, and Lin Feng were all good brothers who had been through life and death together. It was not easy for them to survive.
She hopes that they can survive future disasters. Although she and Leng Yi have chosen different paths, she hopes that things will get better and better for everyone.
Yang Qing asked about their respective military branches. Lu Lin, Pei Chuan and the other five who came in first joined the navy, while Li Shengnan and Gao Yang were in the army.
Leng Yi frowned slightly, "Do you know about the plate collision? Have your superiors told you about it?"
"Yes!" Li Shengnan nodded, and Lu Lin and the others also nodded.
"The leader said that we all have our own missions, but everyone has the same responsibilities. Although it may be safer at sea, we can't put all our eggs in one basket."
"Our army also has its own methods and approaches. For the sake of human heritage, we must also do our utmost to protect those 'seeds'."
Yang Qing nodded. Indeed, if they used different channels, their chances of success might be greater.
Logically speaking, the Air Force is safer, but it is impossible to load those containers, and it is impossible to build such large aircraft temporarily, so the Navy and the Army are more reliable.
"However, if you really encounter force majeure, you should prioritize saving your own lives," Yang Qing said. "Those containers are made of special materials and generally won't be damaged."
"You should save your life first. You can go back and look for it later. But if you lose your life, you will never find your things again."
