Chapter 78: My younger brother appears
"Boss, I have down jackets here, do you need them? You can pick whatever you want from Bosideng Ailaiyi Qianrengang, a bottle of water or a hundred pieces, all are brand new..."
"Boss, boss, I have cotton coats here. They are all military cotton coats. It's not cold in Northeast China. They are very warm..."
"Boss, I have clothes here. We have clothes for all seasons. We have all kinds of styles. We have all kinds of pure cotton and silk..."
As soon as Lu Weiyi agreed on the price, a group of people immediately swarmed around him, clamoring for their products and anxiously wanting to sell them to Lu Weiyi. If one had not been experiencing this, it would be hard to imagine that a bottle of water that cost one dollar could now be sold for thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars. Even in the eyes of others, Lu Weiyi was a fool for exchanging water for other things.
"Tell me one by one, what are you talking about?" Lu Weiyi heard these people shouting about something that should indeed be saved, so he stretched out his hand to ask them to be quiet and took the initiative to ask.
Even if there is a lot of water stored, it is not right to waste it like this. Several people who were traveling with him were about to stop it, but Zhuang Mingxu spoke first, "Xiao Yi."
"Hmm?" Lu Weiyi leaned over to look at Zhuang Mingxu.
"Exchange it with other things, and keep the water for ourselves to drink." Zhuang Mingxu had no idea how much supplies Lu Weiyi had, but although Lu Weiyi didn't like to care about anything, he was never a person without a plan, so he just gave a reminder.
"It's okay. If it's not enough to drink, we can go out and find more," Lu Weiyi said nonchalantly, and pinched the back of Zhuang Mingxu's shoulder inadvertently while pushing the wheelchair.
Zhuang Mingxu paused and did not refute.
The result was that Lu Weiyi exchanged ten bottles of mineral water for half a street's worth of down jackets, coats, quilts and even cotton boots. In short, he bought everything needed to keep warm in winter.
Although everyone's attention is on food now, these winter supplies are extremely cheap, but it is a hassle to transport so many of them.
At first, the people behind him wanted to take the money back to him, but later they simply told the merchant to send him to the villa for payment. They all felt like they were following a boy who was giving away money, and at the same time they were silently thinking about ending this shopping trip as soon as possible.
Lu Weiyi was obviously having a lot of fun shopping and no one in the family was willing to miss it.
After this circle, there were all toiletries. Lu Weiyi finally stopped using mineral water, but he still exchanged twenty cakes for a bunch of things. The cakes he used were the ones that Xi Shi had baked when he was on the road. Lu Weiyi said with an attitude of getting a good deal, "I must ask Brother Xi to make more when I go back."
Before the end of the world, Antonio thought he was a big shopkeeper. But when he met Lu Weiyi, he felt that he was a little worldly-wise. He immediately felt that Dean was wronged and told Dean, "You can exchange for anything you like."
Dean nodded, then shook his head, "I don't think there's anything I need." What he said was true. After all, Antonio had prepared everything he needed in life, and Lu Weiyi would occasionally take care of him, so he didn't need to worry about anything.
"Lu is really good at buying things," Dean's tone of praise was so exaggerated that Gu Qingyue and his brothers felt a little sympathetic towards Zhuang Mingxu.
"What's wrong?" Zhuang Mingxu noticed the unconcealed gazes of several people and asked.
"Excuse me, what did you do in the past? How was your income?" Before, Lu Weiyi said that Zhuang Mingxu was his financial sponsor, and Gu Qingyue thought he must be a rich man. But after seeing the way Lu Weiyi bought things, Gu Qingyue really wanted to ask Zhuang Mingxu if he would have more expenses than he earned every year by supporting such a person.
"I started my own technology company. I don't know if you have heard of it. It's called Weiyi Technology." As for the income, Zhuang Mingxu thought for a while and said, "In terms of income, it was probably more than 2 billion last year."
Youyi Technology is a leader in the technology industry. Even if you don’t know who the CEO is, you must have heard of the company’s name.
"Sorry, just pretend I didn't ask." Gu Qingyue covered her face and looked away. The life of rich people was simply unimaginable.
The others also tacitly stopped looking at Zhuang Mingxu. After all, he was a billionaire with an annual income, and they didn’t deserve to feel sorry for him.
Going further ahead is the food area. The few people thought that they had no shortage of supplies and Lu Weiyi should know to restrain himself. However, who knew that the first thing that appeared in front of them was a fruit stall, with apples, plums, pineapples, cantaloupes and other fruits neatly arranged. Although they were a little wilted under the August sun, the world they saw all day long was devastated, and this little bit of bright color made it difficult to walk.
"Young man, would you like to buy some fruit?" The vendor was an old man who asked Lu Weiyi directly with a smile. After all, half the people on the street could see that he was a man who gave away money.
As expected, Lu Weiyi immediately asked, "It's quite fresh. Where did you get it, uncle?" He thought about getting some for himself.
"My family used to run a fruit stand, and this was for my child to eat. Now that my child is sick, I have no choice but to sell it." The old man did not hide it, "I don't want food, I just want medicine. Young man, do you have any?"
"What medicine?" Lu Weiyi said, glancing at Gu Qingyue. After all, although he had a lot of medicines, he really didn't know what they were used for.
"These are for treating children's asthma. The medicine we have at home for my children has been used up," the old man said. "These four bottles are all given to you."
The price of four bottles is not cheap, especially for a place like a hospital that is hard to get to and medicines are scarce, but fruits are also rare nowadays.
Gu Qingyue said the name of a medicine, and the old man nodded immediately and said, "Why don't you come to our villa directly later and I will find it for you."
"Okay, okay." Upon hearing this, the old man immediately put away all the fruits.
After agreeing on the time and place for the exchange, the group moved forward again. In front of them was a vegetable stall. Lu Weiyi continued to buy everything, leaving nothing unsold. He even took the tomatoes and cucumbers that could be found in the village.
After all, he knew that although these things seemed to be plentiful now, once the heavy snow was over and the temperature dropped suddenly, there would be no vegetables and fruits left in a short time.
As for the eggs and meat that appeared later, the group had no intention of saying anything, so much so that wherever they went there was a circle of people surrounding them, all vying to introduce their things.
They thought that they would spend the time on Lu Weiyi's shopping trip, but Xu Sa showed up and stopped Lu Weiyi from spending any more money.
"Did you exchange it for jade?" Lu Weiyi had just seen a few barbecue racks and a pile of charcoal and was checking the quality. When he heard Xu Sa calling him, he immediately remembered his mission.
"I asked Xiao Liu to do it," Xu Sa replied, then he remembered the purpose of his visit, "Lu Xiaoyi, do you have a younger brother named Lu Xi?"
Lu Xi is the only son of Lu Weiyi's uncle. In his previous life, he was kidnapped and asked his uncle for arms extortion. Lu Weiyi used his special powers to sneak into the room and steal the man out.
Lu Weiyi's mother is the only daughter in her grandfather's family. Her grandmother was injured when she gave birth to her, and she wanted a child, so her grandfather adopted a boy who was twelve years older than Lu Weiyi. Before he joined the army, he had a very good relationship with Lu Weiyi. At that time, her grandfather was still alive, and he took Lu Weiyi out to play all day long.
As a result, when he was in college, he was framed by his classmates and had a child. The child's mother's family caused trouble, so his grandfather paid money to keep the child, bought out the relationship, and sent his uncle to the army.
The child Lu Xi had always been raised by his grandfather. When Lu Weiyi was still a naive and lively little master, he often held his fair-skinned brother and played with him. Later, due to changes in the family, Lu Weiyi followed Zhuang Mingxu and left Kyoto for Qingyuan.
Lu Xi was taken to the military compound by his father. Lu Weiyi had mental problems, and their relationship actually became much distant in the following years. Probably in Lu Xi's memory, there was only this person.
But in Lu Weiyi's memory, there was a boy with scars all over his body and a gloomy face who was abused in his previous life. It was a year after the end of the world. The sixteen-year-old Lu Xi learned weapon manufacturing and was the first person to research crystal core weapons.
As a result, when he used the weapon for the first time, he wiped out a large team in Kyoto, leaving no one alive. Later, he disappeared with the weapons. Not long after, he heard that a base in the southwest was completely destroyed by the weapons. Later, before Lu Weiyi died, he heard that his uncle had found him, but he never saw him again.
"Yes, my uncle's son." Xu Sa had been with Lu Weiyi since childhood, so he knew Lu Xi, but he suddenly mentioned this person. "What's wrong?"
"We just passed by the red-light district over there and saw that group of people forcing someone to have sex with a pretty little boy. I heard someone mumbling something and it seemed like his name was Lu Xi. I thought it sounded familiar so I asked you about it." After Xu Sa finished speaking, he felt that it was impossible, "It shouldn't be. Lu Xi should be in the capital with your uncle. There's no way he would be here. Haha... I'm overthinking it."
Luxi...northwest...Yongping Base...
Lu Weiyi immediately dropped the tongs that were fiddling with the charcoal in his hand and said, "Where is it? Let me go check it out."
"Keep moving forward." Xu Sa restrained his smile.
"Boss, I know where it is. I'll take you there," Xiao Liu, who followed Xu Sa, said immediately, "That place was specially set up by a small organization here. There are both men and women in it. It's a place for people to have fun. If you are your relative, you must go and take a look."
Lu Weiyi turned around and was about to leave. The owner of the store knew he shouldn't stop him, but he didn't want to give up on such a big customer, so he immediately stopped him and said, "Hey, little brother, do you still want this thing?"
"I'll wait for you here and help you take a look," Zhuang Mingxu said to Lu Weiyi.
Because of what happened when his uncle Lu Xiao was young, he never got married and he valued his only son very much. Lu Weiyi still remembers his red eyes and trembling hands when he saw Lu Xi being rescued.
Feeling anxious for a moment, he looked at the others.
Gu Qingyue knew what he meant and immediately said, "Qingji Dean, Aiyi and I will wait for you here. Brother Li and Antonio will go with you." There will be guards on duty in the trading area, so there won't be too many conflicts. There won't be any conflicts if they are together.
But if that person is really Lu Xi, there is no guarantee that Lu Weiyi will not get excited and have some conflicts. Letting Li Zhuang and Antonio follow him will not be a disadvantage in the end.
"Thank you," Lu Weiyi said, turning around and running back the way he came with Xiao Liu.
In the end times, all kinds of people begin to prevail. In order to survive, there is only darkness that you cannot imagine, and there is nothing that others cannot do.
The pressure of survival is uncertain, and zombies may appear at any time. All the things around need a place to release and relieve, and the red light district came into being.
Lu Weiyi had never been to such a place, but he had heard that it was a sex trade, with both voluntary and forced services. Of course, in addition to the sex trade, they also received guests with special fetishes, and abuse and humiliation were commonplace.
When Lu Weiyi went to another base with Zhuang Mingxu to exchange things, he saw a boy who had been tamed like a dog being given to Zhuang Mingxu by the people in the base. The boy was not yet an adult at that time, and there was no hope in his eyes. After a long period of domestication, he had gradually lost his human cognition and only knew how to please his master.
Lu Weiyi closed his eyes, not daring to think about it anymore, and his steps became a little faster.
