Chapter 212: The Dilapidated Building Materials Market
Nan Ci smiled and said, "We are not hungry, so we won't eat. Now that you have finished eating, let's go."
Zhang Cheng looked at the remaining food on the table, his face full of reluctance, "There is still a lot... it will be wasted if we leave it here..."
When saying these words, Zhang Cheng's expression became a little embarrassed, and he kept rubbing his hands.
Just by hearing what he said, Nan Ci understood what he meant, "Ask the waiter to come and pack it up. You can take it home and have another meal in the evening."
Zhang Cheng was waiting for this sentence. When he heard it, he immediately smiled and said, "Thank you, beautiful lady. I'll go get my things and pack them now."
It's the end of the world now. Many factories no longer exist, and daily necessities are naturally not as convenient as before the end of the world.
Just like before the end of the world, when we needed to pack our meals, we had take-out boxes and take-out bags.
But these things are not available in restaurants nowadays.
Zhang Cheng went out quickly and came back quickly.
Just by looking at him panting, red cheeks and sweat on his forehead, you could tell how fast he was running.
What Zhang Cheng brought back was a stainless steel lunch box.
Zhang Cheng was seen putting all the food into the lunch box. Although all the food mixed together did not look so good, Zhang Cheng still had a satisfied smile on his face.
Looking at the expression on his face, Nan Ci felt deeply moved.
Before the end of the world, not many people were willing to take away their food when eating out.
There are even fewer people like Zhang Cheng who pack up happily.
From this perspective, the end of the world teaches people to be frugal!
After Zhang Cheng packed the food, he smiled at Nan Ci and the old Taoist priest with embarrassment, "Sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time. I have packed it up. Let's go."
Nan Ci said nothing and walked out first.
They ate upstairs, which took quite a while.
Although it was not yet dinner time, the first floor was already mostly occupied, and it seemed much more lively than the previous calm.
Nan Ci's eyes quickly swept over these guests and found that although their clothing was not as good as before the end of the world, it was much better than that of the pedestrians outside.
Especially the mental state and facial expression, which can better show how a person's life is going.
These people are of normal build and have ruddy complexions, and it is obvious that they are living a good life.
But come to think of it, if life wasn't good, there's no way you would come to the restaurant to eat.
After walking out of here, Zhang Cheng explained in a low voice.
"Because it's no longer safe inside the base after dark, people who go out to eat will eat earlier so they don't have to go home in the dark."
After hearing Zhang Cheng's explanation, Nan Ci suddenly realized that it was no wonder that there were so many people in the restaurant even though it was not even time for dinner.
The three of them talked as they walked, and soon arrived at the building materials street.
The building materials street before the end of the world had a dazzling array of shops selling a wide variety of items that were dizzying.
There are also many shops on this building materials street in front of us, and they are all filled with goods.
But nothing is new.
Tattered tables and cabinets, and ironwork covered with rust.
Broken glass and ceramics, pots and pans with chipped paint.
Even though he knew that the current situation was not good and the things sold in the store could not be compared with those before the apocalypse, when Nan Ci really saw this scene, he was still somewhat shocked.
She finally understood why the boat next door was repaired like that.
