Chapter 126 Xu Rong



yes.

Once there are zombies on the train and you fail to get off in time, you will be trapped on the train.

When they thought of this possibility, everyone's eyes dimmed a lot.

Today is an important day for Dawn City.

The residents did not go to work, and all crowded on the high wall to watch the train outside Shuguang City.

Standing next to the train were their city lord, the most famous and powerful mercenary group in their Dawn City, and Director Jiao.

"Have you read the forum? Look at the latest train departure notice from Director Jiao. A trip is only two yuan, the same price as our bus."

"It's a pity that we can only go as far as Rongcheng. I don't have any relatives there. It's so dangerous now, so I'd better stay in Shuguang City and make some money."

"We work all day, and when we're off duty, we can run errands. Look, Director Jiao said there are no zombies on the train, and zombies can't attack the train. Isn't that very safe? I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going to buy some things and follow the city lord to Rongcheng."

"City Lord, Director Jiao, wait for me, I want to go too."

Xu Bai and Jiao Nanmu turned around and saw a man on the platform running and waving his hands.

"Look, life is indeed more hopeful." Xu Bai looked at Jiao Nanmu and said loudly, with one hand behind his back and the other operating the ticket machine.

Those who have Dawn City resident cards can have money deducted directly from their resident cards. Those who don’t have them can exchange them with crystal cores. They can exchange all of them for tickets, or they can store them in a magnetic card first, which will show how many tickets can be exchanged for. You can also use the magnetic card to make purchases in Dawn City.

Xu Bai used a crystal core to buy 10 train tickets and exchanged it for a magnetic card with the balance on it marked on it.

The ticket is made of paper and has the ticket price, destination, departure time, and return time printed on it.

Xu Bai only set up four trips a day, round trip in the morning and round trip in the afternoon. He would set up more trips when there was more traffic later.

The train has no driver.

Once the time is set, the train will reserve three minutes for reminder preparation, and when the three minutes are up, the train will start.

The carriages are spaced far apart, with only ten seats in each compartment.

There was just enough room for their group to sit, and the other boxes were still empty.

"Wait wait wait, I'm coming..."

The man came running all the way with bags hanging on his body. He was about to rush into the train compartment, but it seemed like there was some barrier blocking him and he couldn't get in.

The man was a little anxious, "Are you going to drive? Wait for me."

"Buy a ticket from the ticket machine."

Jiao Nanmu stood up and pointed to the station. "Hurry up, the train will leave on the hour."

The man looked at the train schedule and saw that there were still five or six minutes until the hour.

He rushed to the ticket machine, and without even having time to study, he hurriedly took out his resident card and swiped it, then rushed back to the train compartment.

As soon as he ran into the train car, before he had time to recover, he heard the announcement that the train was about to depart.

The broadcast had a very mechanical voice. When the voice sounded, the man's heart skipped a beat. He looked at the closing door of the carriage and breathed a sigh of relief.

Even though Director Jiao announced that there would be no zombies in the car, he was still a little worried.

When the man raised his eyes, he saw Xu Bai and others sitting in their seats.

He scratched his head, put all the bags he was carrying under the empty seat, then sat down, took out the ticket he had not yet looked at carefully, and looked at the countdown to departure on the train.

His nose felt a little sour, he took a deep breath, carefully folded the ticket and put it in his chest pocket.

Now that we have trains, life will get better and better in the future.

"Are you carrying all these bags...preparing to move?" Shi Qinghe came over and sat next to the man, asking curiously.

It was no wonder that Shi Qinghe thought too much, as he saw that the man was carrying a quilt and several bags of food.

"Hey, I want to be a peddler. The city lord shouldn't mind this, right? My name is Nian Boqing, and I also want to buy a house in Shuguang City like you." Nian Boqing would always pass by Shi Qinghe's house when he took a walk after work every day. Looking at his house, he always thought, it would be great if one day he could buy his own house.

Before the end of the world, he had just bought a house, which was a pre-sale house, and had only paid the monthly installments for a few months when the end of the world happened.

Now the construction has not been completed yet, so it is impossible to move back in. He can only buy another one. If he can buy a whole garden villa at once like Shi Qinghe and others, it would be a great blessing for his ancestors.

The train to Rongcheng had just opened, so there certainly wouldn't be many people going back and forth every day at the beginning. He had to go there the day before and sell these things for a good price.

If the city lord doesn't agree, it doesn't matter. He will just have to work one month less and keep it for himself.

"It's good to have a goal." Shi Qinghe gave him a thumbs up.

It’s about making money, so what?

Aren't they also taking advantage of the current extreme shortage of materials in other cities and selling them at good prices?

Seeing that Shi Qinghe had no intention of objecting, Nian Boqing looked at the people sitting in the back row again, didn't say anything, then he breathed a sigh of relief and cast a grateful look at Xu Bai.

The train took only an hour to reach Rongcheng.

Nian Boqing said goodbye to them, carrying bags of various sizes.

Shi Qinghe helped him put the things hanging on his body in order, patted his shoulder, and made a cheering gesture to him, "Be careful, people are more dangerous than zombies."

"Thank you, thank you."

Looking at Nian Boqing's back as he ran along, Shi Qinghe smiled.

“When I see these people, I always feel that this is life.”

"Get off the bus, we won't go back until night."

With the idea that they were already here, Xu Bai and his companions decided to go to Rongcheng to earn some crystal cores.

After they dispersed, the people who had been hiding not far away came together and looked at the parked train for a while.

One of them went to the ticket machine to buy a ticket, gritted his teeth, and got on the bus.

Before he could even get on the bus, he was stopped by other people.

"Are you crazy? You have a wife and children to support. What if you go there and get into danger?"

"I went there just to support them. I've always heard how good Shuguang City is and that there are jobs there, so I wanted to go and take a look first. I'll be back in the evening. Everything will be fine. Look, they just got off the bus, and nothing happened to them, right?" Xu Rong sighed, looking somewhat helpless.

The zombies in Rongcheng are becoming more and more dangerous. He has no special abilities, so he goes out with his friends every day to kill zombies. The crystal cores they get are only enough to buy some food in the base.

He used his only remaining crystal core to buy a ticket and go to Dawn City to explore the way.

In the past, he didn't dare to bring his wife and children with him, but now there is a train, maybe he can reach Dawn City safely. If things are good there, he and his wife and children will pack up overnight and go to Dawn City.
