Stock up and upgrade
Once the traded items are confirmed, it is impossible to take the person home to get the items.
Jiang Miao asked Li Chongyu to wait here, and he went outside for a walk. He used the backpack to hide five bottles of mineral water, five packets of compressed biscuits, ten packets of instant noodles, and some dried fish snacks to supplement salt.
After she brought the things over, Li Chongyu swallowed his dry throat and held back the hunger in his stomach: "Let's go, my place is very close to here."
After walking for about five minutes, Jiang Miao looked at the bridge hole with ventilation on three sides. It was indeed very close, right next to the commercial street. The riverbed had dropped a lot due to the hot weather, and there were many homeless people living here.
He was seen rummaging through a pile of scrap copper and iron, and finally found a Zhuge crossbow and handed it to Jiang Miao: "The bow and sleeve arrows are not sharpened yet, don't worry, wait for me to eat something and start working right away!"
This crossbow is very delicately made. After trying it out, I found it to be light and powerful. It seems that the daggers that were given as a gift when I bought the Huaying Sword were also made by him.
Li Chongyu drank a bottle of water in one breath, swallowed the compressed biscuits and dried fish whole. Jiang Miao took out two daggers from the space under the cover of the backpack: "Paid. After-sales service."
Business is coming!
"Okay, okay, ahem, I'll be right there!"
Creating these weapons with a strong martial arts style was initially just Li Chongyu's hobby.
It is so well made and exquisite that I can't bear to give it away, but I don't want to sell it for too little money. After all, not everyone is as elegant and generous as Cuiyan Miaomiao.
After the apocalypse, cold weapons became very valuable when coming down from the mountains. He was targeted several times and almost got killed!
After that, Li Chongyu was too timid to sell them openly. He could only rely on fortune-telling to find some reliable people to sell them secretly. He only sold three daggers and one crossbow.
“When will you finish these things?”
"About six or seven hours. Generally speaking, a crossbow comes with ten hidden arrows and five hidden arrows. If you want more, the price is negotiable."
Jiang Miao had a very good impression of Yijian Xiaoyao. The first element of selling a sword was that one must not use the sword to commit murder. Even though he was so hungry just now, he would not eat until the customer saw that the transaction was completed.
"Why are you pretending to be blind?" In view of the possibility of long-term transactions in the future, Jiang Miao gave him a chance to explain.
Li Chongyu was a little embarrassed: "Before, I was in the Taoist temple and never actively solicited pilgrims to tell fortunes. If I don't put out a bowl of rice and pretend to be blind, no one will come to my stall all day."
So this is the method used for fishing enforcement, right?
Jiang Miao understood, and was relieved to leave the dagger here: "Leave the things here and work on them slowly. I'll come and get them at this time tomorrow."
"Okay, no problem!" Li Chongyu observed the dagger in his hand and found that the blade was indeed a little bent. It seemed that Cui Yan Miaomiao had already used a knife in the end of the world. He was a ruthless person.
"The smoke from cooking is faint. Um, have you ever seen blood with the Huaying Sword?"
Jiang Miao's face turned cold and he asked, "Is there a problem with self-preservation at the end of the world?"
"No, no!" Li Chongyu also knew that today's society is very different from before, but he felt a little disappointed and felt that he had let down his ancestors.
"Also, don't call me by my online nickname anymore." Calling someone by an online nickname can easily cause discomfort.
"Okay, Sister Miao."
…
Okay, considering those eight years in my previous life, it’s not a problem to have him call me sister.
Leaving the things behind, Jiang Miao drove to the industrial park to try another factory.
The van drove onto the main road and went around into the workers' residential area. There seemed to be even fewer people who hadn't come here for more than ten days, and the social order became even more chaotic.
Jiang Miao's car was attacked twice at a distance of less than 500 meters. If she hadn't paid extra money to replace the car with super-hard bulletproof glass when she bought it, the brick would have smashed into the cab.
Jiang Miao stepped on the accelerator and rushed out of the street.
It's really too chaotic here. I'll have to drive a Hummer next time.
The residential area of the industrial park is closer to the city than the factory. Jiang Miao slowed down as he saw fewer and fewer people on both sides of the road.
This place was a mixed crowd, so Jiang Miao parked the van in a secluded corner and folded up the car. He searched around in the space for a long time and finally found a relatively thin lace fabric to tie behind his head.
Nowadays, the temperature at night is over 45 degrees. The weather is getting hotter and hotter. Jiang Miao can't even breathe with an ordinary medical mask on his face. It's too stuffy and hot, and he can easily get heatstroke.
No one knows what this fabric is made of. The lace pattern on it is fancy. It is breathable and can cover the face. Jiang Miao thinks it is very practical and made some slight modifications to it.
Coming out of the alley, there was a large-scale power outage in the factory area. Jiang Miao passed by the candy factory and the clothing factory but did not go in. Finally, after turning a corner, he saw a large factory with a gear logo. He did not see the name, but it was definitely related to machinery.
The gate of this machinery factory has been smashed open. To be precise, the first people to come to the factory to collect supplies after the end of the world may be the factory's own employees.
It was quiet inside, as if someone was there and yet not, and there was a faint sound coming from somewhere. Jiang Miao put his hands behind his back, using himself as a shield to collect some repair tools such as screwdrivers and wrenches. There was nothing valuable on the first floor.
Then he went to the second floor.
There were also obvious signs of having been searched on the second floor, but since she was there, she still collected some raw materials such as steel, plastic, and rubber that were piled up in the corner, and also collected a handful of punches.
Go to the third floor again.
The third floor is not very large and feels like a QAQC office area. There are a lot of dismantled cartons and plastic films piled on the ground, and the drawers of the desks have been ransacked. There is even a faint smell of blood in the air, which suggests that a fight must have taken place here not long ago.
Jiang Miao secretly sighed that he came here a few days late because of the chemical plant. As a result, he didn't even have a sip of soup. It was such a loss.
Going up further, the fourth floor is the office, conference room and hall, where there is even less to store things. Jiang Miao walked to the factory director's office and looked at the heavy rosewood desk. Okay, it's your turn.
Coming down from upstairs, Jiang Miao was unwilling to give up and went around the underground garage again. In addition to a few small electric scooters and cars parked inside, there was also a truck parked in front of the elevator door with its back door wide open, apparently someone had already robbed it.
Jiang Miao was determined to go over and take a look, and she actually discovered a huge four-dimensional color B-ultrasound machine!
This thing is so large that it is difficult to move it away by manpower. It seems that the person who opened the car door was unable to take it away and was forced to give it up.
All the things that cannot be bought on the market are what Jiang Miao wants to stock up in the end times!
I accepted the truck and the goods together, and was satisfied and ready to go to the next factory, hoping that my luck would be so good.
After coming out of the underground garage, Jiang Niao saw the name of the factory at the entrance: Haitian Medical Equipment Manufacturing Co., Ltd.
Tsk tsk, from the messy scene where the fourth floor has been harvested to the point where not a blade of grass remains, you can’t tell that this is a medical device company.
As I walked out of the machinery factory gate, a person suddenly appeared at an almost unguarded corner!
Jiang Miao subconsciously grasped the gun in his hand, and did not raise his hand immediately when he saw the face clearly.
——The violent loli I met on the road on the day I left school.
Jiang Miao had short hair and wore a black short-sleeved hooded sweatshirt and dark grey loose shorts.
The person opposite was stunned for a moment, his eyes wide open, as if he had taken a lot of effort to recognize her.
However, Jiang Miao did not recognize his schoolmate's hobby. He put away his gun in the dark, walked around her and left.
After walking a few steps, Jiang Miao discovered that the little loli who was about to go in actually turned around and followed him!
Instantly, his vigilance was raised! Jiang Miao took out his butterfly knife and turned around to perform a beautiful flower knife move. His cold eyes showed that strangers were not allowed to enter, and his words were full of warning: "Don't follow me."
Seeing her big reaction, the little girl quickly explained in a sweet voice: "Sorry, I didn't mean to follow you on purpose, but I saw you coming out with empty hands and it seemed like there was nothing in there, so I left with you."
That's good.
Jiang Miao put away the butterfly knife, pulled down his baseball cap and continued walking forward.
The little girl took two quick steps to Jiang Miao's side: "Um, my name is Su Le, and I'm a freshman at Ancheng University."
Seeing that she seemed to be hesitant to speak, wanting to say something but not wanting to, Jiang Miao stopped and asked straightforwardly, "What's the matter?"
"Um, senior sister, do you know what this is on your face?" Su Le hesitated for a while: "My family makes erotic underwear, and this thing on your face, well, should be worn here." She pointed to her chest, looking embarrassed.
What?
At this moment, Jiang Miao's ears turned red and his heartbeat soared. He was so nervous that his toes tapped the ground, but he still suppressed his embarrassment and answered with a very distant attitude: "Oh."
Damn, she had been a solo mother for more than 20 years in her previous and later lives, how could she know what this thing looked like! !
He quickly untied the thing and tore off one of the pieces as he thought it was unnecessary. The half-broken thing drew an arc in the air and was quickly put into the bag.
...How can she associate these things, which are not even as big as her palm, with that thing in mind!
In a flash, Jiang Miao seemed to remember something and immediately sank into space to quickly find the packaging bag of this thing. Fortunately, this thing was still new and had not been used by anyone, otherwise she would really vomit!
Under the moonlight, Su Le saw that the tips of the senior's ears were red and she was holding back her embarrassment. She was so cute that he couldn't help laughing in his heart and wanted to tease her. He said seriously and solemnly: "If you need it, there are still a lot in my factory."
"No need." Jiang Miao was about to take the thing back and destroy it, then he said awkwardly: "Thank you for the reminder."
In fact, this lace fabric is breathable and can cover up her appearance when worn on the face. If Su Le hadn't reminded her, she would have to carry it with her when traveling during this extremely hot period...
But luckily I was discovered and pointed out the first time I brought it today, otherwise it would have been really embarrassing if I met someone I knew.
On the other hand, although Su Le looks harmless and cute, she knows everything and is involved in all kinds of circles.
Wow, the way the senior sister said thank you was so arrogant and aggrieved. I really want to press her!
Serious people are the funniest to tease. Su Le's ponytail swayed with joy. "You're welcome, senior. Let's exchange contact information... Oh, it's annoying that there's no internet now. Well, my home is at the northwest corner of the industrial park. It's called Yixin Garment Factory. Look, it's right over there! There are only me and my dad inside. My family has most of the products from these factories in the park. If you need anything, come to my house to exchange them."
"Okay." Jiang Miao probably wouldn't go unless it was necessary.
Since the riots started here, Su Le's family has moved a lot of things from several surrounding factories to their own factory for food, clothing, housing and transportation. There were also a few unremarkable factories that her father said had nothing useful to use, so they didn't go. But adhering to the principle that it is better to stockpile more than less, Su Le planned to come and take a look today, and then unexpectedly ran into her senior.
"Senior, are you looking for something now? Let me see if there is anything you need nearby?"
Su Le's proposal made her very excited. What she lacked most at the moment and what she had been looking for was anti-radiation clothing, but ordinary protective clothing was basically useless in that environment. Jiang Miao was a little unsure. After thinking about it, she was afraid of arousing suspicion, so she didn't mention this thing.
Anyway, there are still a few years before the nuclear radiation spreads, so there is still time.
"No, I'm just wandering around."
"All right."
Su Le was full of regrets. After today's farewell, he would have to rely on luck to meet his senior sister again.
When they reached the corner in front, Jiang Miao walked very quickly, said "Goodbye" and turned around and disappeared into the darkness. The two parted ways and Su Le didn't even have time to say goodbye.
