Chapter 235 Entering the City



Upon hearing this, the man went mad.

If you are caught selling clouds, there is basically no dispute that it is a definite death sentence.

This man was a desperado. He pulled out a dagger with his other hand and was about to stab at you in the street.

Yu Xifeng took a step forward, twisted and snapped the dagger, and dropped it to the ground.

She raised her foot and hit the man right in the chest, sending him flying.

This alarmed many people.

The plainclothes officers in the crowd rushed out, and the man spat out blood and couldn't even get up.

Someone shouted, "Don't let your accomplice get away."

Yu Xifeng looked up and his eyes met the dark-skinned man from before.

Yu Xifeng paused slightly.

The man stood at the back of the crowd, watching with the attitude of a superior.

The man selling clouds was taken away.

All the broken powder on the ground was swept up.

Several accomplices nearby were also captured.

Yu Xifeng and Zhang Qiu went to make a statement before coming out.

It was also in the guard team that Yuxi team discovered many food coupons that had not been implemented.

The Northern Base is promoting this. I heard from A Yue that if you want to buy things in the urban area, you need to use food coupons.

Now we want to extend the food coupons outside the city.

Because many of the survivors outside the city are outsiders.

People are not very receptive to this kind of paper money, and would rather barter it even if it is a little troublesome.

When we returned, it was already evening.

A Yue was waiting for Yu Xifeng in the house.

This time she had to re-apply for her identity certificate, and A Yue paid for it out of her own pocket and left on an expedited basis.

He also gave Yu Xifeng an eight-liang grain coupon.

It is said that it can be exchanged for a piece of black bread weighing five to six taels.

In order not to drag down Yu Xifeng and Zhang Qiu, A Yue did not go with them this time.

She gave Yu Xifeng an address and told him to look for a man named Brother Liu there.

You can ask him to arrange rental for you.

She herself will not go into the city until two days later.

Yu Xifeng and Zhang Qiu gave up the house they rented in the outer city.

This time, I entered the city smoothly and found Brother Liu.

It would definitely take more than a day or two for Yu Xifeng to collect things.

The high-rise buildings in the urban area are well preserved and there is no shortage of residential buildings.

The prices here are also very inflated.

There is no electricity in the high-rise building, so you can only use the stairs.

The higher the floor, the lower the price.

According to Brother Liu, high-end restaurants in the city and a very small number of residential areas also have electricity.

But not only are the prices there sky-high, but the political review is also extremely strict.

There is no need to think about Yu Xifeng's fake identity.

The houses that Brother Liu took me to see were either very shabby bungalows, similar to villages in the city, or ten floors or above, which required one to rely on their legs to go up and down.

Even drinking water requires carrying it up to the tenth floor. Just thinking about it makes me tired.

For a house like this, because it is located in the urban area, the minimum order amount is five compressed biscuits.

Yu Xifeng finally raised the price and booked a two-bedroom apartment on the third floor.

The orientation is good, the ventilation is good, and it is close to the well.

The rental price is twenty-five compressed biscuits.

This rent is enough for people from other cities to live on for two months.

After deciding on the house, Zhang Qiu stayed behind to clean up, while Yu Xifeng followed Brother Liu to the shopping mall in the city.

In the market outside the city, all kinds of things are sold in cloth bags.

All of them are laid out on the ground for anyone to choose from.

If there is any disturbance, there will be a commotion or a fight somewhere.

Just pick it up and go.

The weather here is completely different from that in the outer city.

There are many shops in the city, which has a bit of the flavor of a shopping mall.

The clothes people wear are also closer to the past.

But it can still be seen that because the fabric was discontinued, the clothes were old and monotonous.

Many people's clothes don't seem to fit them well.

Yu Xifeng said that he likes objects that have a bit of history.

Brother Liu said: "This thing has dropped a lot now, but the price is still very high. If you want to find this, you can go to a pawn shop to collect it."

Ah Yue should have some connections with Brother Liu, or he should have taken care of Brother Liu.

Brother Liu was very dedicated throughout the day.

I personally found a pawn shop for Yu Xifeng.

The pawn shop was unexpectedly busy, with long lines of customers.

Yu Xifeng looked at it carefully.

It is indeed as A Yue said, the urban area does not practice bartering like the outer city.

Customers who came to pawn their items ultimately took away food coupons.

Food coupons are just a piece of waste paper.

A brand new currency can be promoted as an equivalent.

Gather all the food in the jurisdiction.

Obviously, the ruler of the northern base must have a high prestige in the urban area.

It is easy to understand why it has not been extended to other cities.

There was too little food in the outer city, and few people were willing to hand over their food in exchange for a few pieces of light paper.

Most of the survivors are struggling on the edge of survival.

There is no room for food stamps to survive.

Yu Xifeng observed the pawn shop for a while.

These people looked decently dressed and were holding valuable items in their hands.

But most of them are here to die.

Just stop here.

There are more than three objects that respond to space.

Sure enough, if you want to collect things, you still have to go to the place where the rich people are.

Yu Xifeng planned to take a closer look here, so he asked Brother Liu to go back first.

She handed a small palm-sized can to Brother Liu as a reward for his hard work that day.

Brother Liu felt a cold metal can in his hand. He was startled at first.

After seeing clearly what it was, Brother Liu quickly grabbed it in his hand, glanced around, and a smile appeared on his face.

This turned out to be a big customer, he was not wrong.

"Then you can hang out here. If you need anything in the future, just come and find me anytime."

Brother Liu left happily.

Yu Xifeng looked at the pawn shop again.

Yu Xifeng couldn't intercept someone else's shop at their doorstep.

She found the lobby manager and told him she wanted to see something.

This shop has two rooms, the front one is a pawnshop and the back one is a shop for selling goods to the public.

There are all kinds of things in the display cabinet, and there are no prices on them.

Every time Yu Xifeng looked at one, the waiter following behind him would give him a quote in person.

The waiter was a young man who looked very clean and tidy.

Yu Xifeng took a fancy to a copper wine cup.

The quoted price was for 34 kilograms of food, which after the discount would only be 17 yuan for compressed biscuits.

It’s a pretty cheap price indeed.

Just for Yu Xifeng.

Like those people outside who come here to die, they have all reached this point, and it is obvious that they all have their own difficulties in life.

Compared to the selling price, the pawn shop's quote for recycling will only be lower.

Yu Xifeng pointed to an ancient coin with a round sky and a square earth shape and said, "Here is this one."

The waiter asked for 22 kilograms.

Yu Xifeng asked: "Only food coupons?"

The waiter nodded: "Yes, according to regulations, we can only accept food coupons."

Yu Xifeng sighed. She only had a food coupon worth 8 taels, less than a kilogram.

Sigh in despair.
