Chapter 341 Getting a Property Certificate
"Wang Hao, you drive and let Leng Yi rest for a while." Yang Qing said to Wang Hao.
"Sister-in-law, don't worry!" Wang Hao nodded and got into the driver's seat. "You guys get some sleep. I'll call you when it's daybreak."
Yang Qing and Leng Yi sat in the back seat together.
Yang Qing took out the small glass bottle that had contained the blue liquid and shook it. "Those people must have been injected with this so-called 'holy blood' to mutate and gain superpowers."
"They mentioned something called 'Holy Blood'. It seems there are quite a few of them, and they might be organized."
Leng Yi nodded, "Be careful next time."
"Leng Yi, do you think I can also get this injection?" Wang Hao asked while driving.
"It's better not to." Yang Qing shook his head. "Didn't you see that person turned into a monster just now? I'd rather not have super powers than become a monster."
Wang Hao nodded without saying anything.
"Wang Hao, don't be anxious. Since we are here, there will definitely be plenty of things like this in the future. We will use the ones that suit you." Leng Yi said.
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Wang Hao nodded.
After driving for another two days, we could see Licheng ahead.
There are a lot of people outside the city, and there are many small vendors.
Leng Yi checked the SUV and found a dashcam on it. He removed it and took out all the accessories hanging on the car, car decorations, perfumes, and things in the glove box and center armrest box. He wanted to leave no trace of the past.
The car got dirty during the past two days of driving. There is some rust on the places where the paint has peeled off. It is very different from before. If you are not very familiar with cars, you probably won’t be able to tell.
Licheng was equipped with a city gate and two entrance and exit passages, which were guarded by special personnel.
People entering the city either have to look at the city’s property deeds or hand in supplies.
The three of them stopped in front of the city gate and observed for a while.
"Sir, do you want to buy something?" a small vendor nearby asked when he saw a car parked in front of him.
Yang Qing took a look and was a little surprised to see that it was a banana. Fruits were rare after the apocalypse, but they could still be seen on the stalls here, which meant that the disaster on this island was not really serious.
So I asked, "How much is it?"
"Five hundred per pound," said the vendor.
Wang Hao took a look and said, "It's so expensive. I saw it in Zengcheng for only 300 yuan per kilogram."
The vendor rolled his eyes. "We're in Licheng. How can Zengcheng compare? Never mind. I'll give it to you at a discount. Four hundred per pound!"
Yang Qing picked up a string, weighed it, and found it was five pounds. He gave the vendor two thousand yuan.
When they burned the van, they also took back the more than 100 kilograms of food and potatoes that had been exchanged for the fat man. They also found a box of money and some jewelry, which they put away.
There is no shortage of money for the time being.
"Let me ask you, what are the requirements for entering the city?" Yang Qing asked the vendor.
"Is this your first time here? You need a real estate certificate to enter the city," the vendor said. "I want to live in the city, but I can't enter without a real estate certificate."
"Isn't there another way to get in?" Yang Qing asked.
The vendor took one look at their car and said, "You can't keep your car if you go in. It will be confiscated. They will also check the items in the car and only keep one-third for you. The rest will be taken away."
Yang Qing frowned. This was similar to what Wang Hao knew.
But if the car is confiscated, it will be difficult to get out the supplies in the future.
"If I give them all my belongings, will they arrange accommodation for me?" Yang Qing asked.
"Yes, but you have to rent one. The Urban Management will arrange it, and one apartment can accommodate at least a dozen people. Otherwise, you can rent a house. Some landlords in the city may have more than one apartment, and some only live in one apartment and rent out the others."
"But the rent is very high. There are too many people moving into the city now, and the housing supply is simply insufficient to meet the demand," said the vendor.
Yang Qing looked at Leng Yi and said, "How about we stay outside for one night and think of a solution?"
Leng Yi nodded, "Okay!"
There are small towns outside the city, as well as many shanty towns. They are quite lively, but a bit messy.
The three of them found a small hotel to stay in first and ordered some food in the hotel.
"Boss, I want to ask you something." Yang Qing called the boss at the front desk, who also looked Chinese.
"You say!" the boss was very polite.
"We want to move into Licheng. Is there any channel to buy a house in Licheng?" Yang Qing asked.
"Buy a house?" The boss was shocked. "Houses are hard to buy these days."
"Money is not the problem, it's just that we don't have the channels." Yang Qing smiled, "Boss, if you have the channels, we will give you a commission."
"Money is not useful now." The boss shook his head.
"What do you want? A car? Food? I have no problem with that." Yang Qing smiled.
Wang Hao looked at her in surprise and said nothing.
The boss glanced at the side and sat down next to Yang Qing. "To be honest, I do have a friend here who has a house and wants to sell it. But..."
"But what?" Yang Qing asked.
The boss lowered his voice, "He used to have a beautiful wife and a three-year-old son. One time, his wife was spotted by a big shot in the city and taken away. He fought back desperately, and not only was he seriously injured, but his son was also beaten to death."
"He can't survive now. There's no point having a house. Besides, living in that room makes him think of his deceased father. It's also unlucky because someone died there."
Yang Qing was silent for a moment before nodding, "That's not a problem. We don't believe that. But, is there any condition for him selling the house? He won't ask us to help him get revenge, will he?"
"That's not the case. He just wants to buy one..." The boss gestured with a pistol, "but he doesn't have the channels. Even though things are chaotic now, weapons are strictly controlled. Ordinary people like us can't buy any at all."
Yang Qing raised her eyebrows. She didn’t lack this, and she happened to have picked up a gun of the Holy Blood that day, which she could give to him.
"Just this?" Yang Qing asked.
"Of course, it would be better to have some food, but that is not important. The most important thing is that..." said the boss.
Yang Qing nodded, "Tell me what his room is like. I do have something he wants."
"His house isn't very good either. It's a small two-bedroom, over fifty square feet. The neighborhood is pretty old, so the house is just average."
Yang Qing nodded. It didn’t matter. As long as he had a place to stay, it was fine.
"If we go into the city, we just need to look at the property certificate, don't we need to look at the head?" Yang Qing asked.
"Yes, as long as you have the property certificate, it doesn't matter whose name it is," the boss said. "The person holding the property certificate doesn't have to hand in the supplies, but the people traveling with you still have to. Once you enter the city, they'll give you a pass, and you won't have to hand in supplies anymore."
"So if I buy a car in the city, or buy a car outside the city, or bring supplies in, I don't have to pay it?"
"Yes, just pay once, they won't be responsible for anything you buy in the future," said the boss.
Yang Qing raised his eyebrows. That’s good.
Fortunately, I didn't rush in just now, otherwise nothing would be left.
