Chapter 237 Mall
This turned out to be Tang Jun, Yu Duoduo and Tong Zi’s college classmate.
When I was in school, I was recognized as the most handsome boy among the girls in the department!
The other party obviously recognized her at a glance, "Old classmate, what a coincidence!"
Yu Duoduo glanced at the house number 0702 and asked, "Do you live here?"
Tang Jun nodded, "Our unit participated in the construction of the base. I followed the large team and moved in a long time ago."
Yu Duoduo remembered that his classmates had told him that Tang Jun's family was well-off and he went to work for a state-owned construction company right after graduation, so it was not surprising to see him here.
"Are you here alone? Are you living in the room opposite?" Tang Jun asked, pointing to room 0708.
"No, I live in room 0709, this is..."
Before Yu Duoduo could say his name, Tong Zi opened the door.
"Tong Zi?" Tang Jun asked uncertainly.
"Tang Jun! Why are you here?" Tong Zi was also surprised. They hadn't seen each other for many years after graduating from college!
“Yes, I live across the street, so we’ll be neighbors from now on.
I'm planning to go out to eat at the mall across the street. How about we get together, old classmates reunite and chat about the past? I'll be the host, what do you think?"
Tang Jun said with a smile, his eyes and eyebrows showing handsomeness and maturity, worthy of being the school idol.
Yu Duoduo and Tong Zi were actually a little hungry, but when they thought about the large pile of supplies downstairs that had not yet been moved up, they felt uneasy and suppressed their appetite.
"Tang Jun, we just checked into the base this afternoon, and our luggage is still downstairs and hasn't been moved up yet, so it's not very convenient for us to go out for dinner.
How about we do it another day, when everything is ready, and then we can have a good gathering together!" Yu Duoduo said.
Tang Jun suddenly realized, "Do you need my help?"
"Don't worry, we have other people with us, not just the two of us, so we won't bother you.
It's almost seven o'clock now, you should go eat quickly!" Yu Duoduo said.
Now is different from before the apocalypse. The supplies in everyone's hands are a secret. No one wants to tell others about the transportation, and no one wants to ask others to do it for them.
Tang Jun is a man of measure.
"Okay, if you need any help, you can tell me. We're classmates, and I'll help you if I can!"
After watching Tang Jun go downstairs, Yu Duoduo and Tong Zi called Mi Nan and went downstairs as well.
Each family's supplies had already been divided into vehicles, and all that had to be done was to move them to each family. Yu Duoduo and Xie Yun had it the easiest because they had the least stuff.
Moreover, their current physical condition is completely different from when they first lived in the apartment building. I'm afraid they could climb up and down this corridor 100 times without even getting out of breath.
Everyone took turns to carry the supplies, with one person moving the supplies up while the other watched the vehicle below and took a break. After the people who went up came down, they would take over and carry the next batch of supplies.
This went on and on repeatedly, with each person probably getting on and off seven or eight times, before all three cars were empty.
The three men drove the empty car back to the parking lot at the gate of the base and quickly turned back.
Then I started to clean up, but there was no furniture in the house, so where could I put my things? And sleeping at night was also a problem, as I couldn't sleep on the concrete floor!
Although there is central heating on site, there are radiators on the walls of the small living room and the room.
But the heat of the whole house cannot be built up in a short time. After all, it is extremely cold weather. No matter what, it will take two or three days of continuous heat supply to feel warm.
Tong Zi was tired, so he sat down on a sealed duvet and said to everyone:
"Didn't the people at the government hall say that the mall sells everything? Then why don't we just go there to buy furniture?
I'm so hungry, why don't we go have a meal first, buy the furniture and accessories we need, and then come back to continue organizing the supplies!"
Of course everyone agreed. It had been eight or nine hours since we were robbed for eating spareribs at noon. Our stomachs were already empty, and it was still so cold...
After adding firewood to the small charcoal stove they were holding, the six of them went out.
Just as they were about to go downstairs, they met an unfamiliar man walking up the stairs. He looked at Yu Duoduo and the other six people, then swiped his card and went straight into the house of the ferocious old lady.
The man has an average appearance, but his aura is extraordinary. He is serious and has an air of superiority. You can tell at first glance that he is the type that is difficult to get along with.
But what does it have to do with them what happens to others? It is only right for them to unite together and live well in the base!
Yu Duoduo and his companions quickly crossed the muddy streets that were frozen hard by the extreme cold and rushed to the entrance of the mall.
There are soldiers standing guard at the entrance of the mall. Supplies are the most important things at all times.
The mall gate requires swiping the base fire card ~ real-name system to enter, probably as a means to prevent malicious incidents from happening in the mall.
Finally entering the mall, what comes into view is a place that is no different from the large shopping malls before the end of the world, except...
This place is as plain and simple as the government hall, with putty and paint applied directly on the reinforced concrete.
In order to enhance the atmosphere of the mall, the paint colors are varied and colorful, as if you have walked into a kindergarten. I don’t know whose aesthetic was this, but it is quite unique.
The mall has three floors and covers a large area. Just as the people in the government hall said, it can basically meet people's daily needs.
The first floor is the area where Yu Duoduo and her friends will purchase large items such as furniture and soft furnishings.
The second floor is for daily necessities, such as clothing, electrical appliances, paper towels, etc.
The third floor is for food and drink, including rice, flour, grain, oil, wine, meat, etc., but there are no fresh vegetables and fruits.
Surrounding the three-story wall is a whole circle of gourmet restaurants with different characteristics, including hot pot, barbecue, skewers, Western food, noodle shops, Chinese fast food, etc.
I guess there are a lot of chefs of this type gathered in the base, and they can be put to good use!
I think it is to provide convenience for people who have enough points but are not good at cooking, such as Tang Jun who lives alone opposite.
Yu Duoduo and her companions went straight to the third floor. They planned to eat first and then go to the first floor to buy beds, cabinets and other furniture.
In order to save time, everyone unanimously chose the noodle shop.
There are shredded pork noodles, egg noodles, beef brisket noodles, three-fresh noodles, fried soybean paste noodles, mutton and beef offal noodles, etc. to choose from, and the taste smells very good from a distance.
The set meal comes with steamed buns or dumplings, and a glass of water, and only requires one seed point in total.
One point can be exchanged for one kilogram of rice, which is a sky-high price for ordinary people.
For Tong Zi and the others, it was acceptable, but for Duoduo and Xie Yun, it was no burden at all.
