Chapter 377 Earthquake. Punishment for Bad Mouth
Chu An no longer had any doubts in his mind, so he turned to the main topic, "Then let's just buy dry goods today, and we'll find the source later."
As they were talking, Aunt Zhao had already boiled some water and poured them two cups. She said a little stiffly, "Leave it alone and drink it later."
She didn't leave after she finished speaking. Chu An knew that she had more to say, so he waited.
Jin Shu sat next to her man and sighed, "Oh, I'm really sorry for today, Yunyun is also very pitiful.
Her parents died during the extreme cold, and for some unknown reason, she suddenly lost her sight. She is left with only a brother who was two years older than her.
Fortunately, his brother is smart and lucky, and he was able to find a flexible job outside to support the two of them."
Chu An asked, "Is she completely blind?"
“I’m not sure about that either. Sometimes she says she can tell the difference between day and night, and sometimes she says she can see people’s shadows, but most of the time she can’t see anything.
It is said that people who become blind later in life cannot bear it and their personality will change, so don’t blame her. She may not be able to accept her blindness, or she may be too scared. She is afraid that her brother will abandon her and ignore her, and that we will isolate her. "
"Do you believe we didn't do anything to her?" Chu An suddenly asked.
The young aunt pursed her lips and nodded, "I saw the shoes. I guess the child might have...suddenly seen you and didn't react."
After Chu An knew the general situation, he didn't want to continue the topic and didn't say whether he forgave or not.
She turned to fisherman Zhao and asked, "Uncle Zhao, I don't just want to ship the fish out. It's not easy to ship fish in such hot weather. I have a lot of good fish on hand and I want to find a buyer in Xiwan."
Aunt Zhao didn't know what to say for Yunyun and just sat there.
"What do you want to sell?" Fisherman Zhao frowned and asked after a moment of silence.
"I have everything, food, clothing, cars, medicine, weapons, even..." She stretched out her hand and made an 'eight', which was also the shape of a pistol.
Fisherman Zhao widened his eyes. These two were just kids, how could they be so powerful? Could it be that the natural disaster was going to exterminate these useless people?
"Xiao An, then why don't you look for those big gangs?" Fisherman Zhao asked the question in his mind.
"Uncle Zhao, look at the two of us, we are only in our early thirties, how can we be their opponents." Chu An deliberately showed a painful expression, "We almost died at the hands of the second master of the Sea God Gang before, and we will never dare to cooperate with big gangs in the future. Besides, we don't have much goods, but there are many varieties, which are most suitable for those who don't live in Xiwan all the time."
"Old man, those people in the Yingbin Resort are always out shopping, can you help contact them? I don't think they will stay long."
Chu An suppressed the joy in his heart and asked, "Who lives in there?"
"A group of foreigners who come to seek gold are quite mysterious." Aunt Zhao continued, "They have been here for more than ten days, but they haven't gone out to sea yet."
"Ahem..." Fisherman Zhao cleared his throat. "Um, Jin Shu. Go see if the village chief has brought the dry goods. If he has, put them on the first floor. We'll go downstairs and take a look. It's too inconvenient to go up to the second floor."
Jin Shu agreed, got up and went downstairs to make arrangements. She didn't realize that her husband was deliberately trying to coax her to leave.
Chu An smiled and said, "Uncle Zhao, is there anything bad to say about the Yingbin Resort?"
"The water is too deep there."
"Don't worry, we just want to do business, nothing else."
Zhao Yufu stared at the ground, his expression unclear. After a long while, he said helplessly, "Hey, it's not that I don't want to help you, but everyone inside has a gun. Just yesterday, the old couple in the front yard wanted to sneak in and go back to their home to get something, but... "
Old couple?
The first person Chu An thought of was the old man selling medicinal wine, but he hoped it wasn't them. It's not easy to survive until now. He overcame the natural disaster, but died at the hands of his compatriots. It's sad and lamentable.
"My child, the most important thing is to stay alive." The old fisherman said earnestly.
"It's important to be alive, but I don't want to wake up every day worrying about what to eat, where to live, whether someone will come to steal my things, and whether I can survive the day. Also, I don't want to see my family suffer."
She blurred the meaning of the last few words; she didn't want Old Chu to suffer.
Fisherman Zhao looked her up and down. This child's eyes were different from everyone else's. Beneath the calmness there was a hint of madness, a very persistent madness.
He had lived for 51 years and had seen many people, but he had never seen a teenager with such eyes. Not fierce, not cruel, not impatient, not irritable, but one could tell at a glance that she was the kind of person who would not give up until she achieved her goal.
"Are you really here to exchange for supplies?" Fisherman Zhao asked tentatively.
"Of course, I'm from City C. There are many powerful people living in the City C base. Even in the end times, they are still the best of the best. The things I exchanged are naturally what they need, and what they need is not just food."
"Let me think about it. Let's go down and exchange for dry goods first." Zhao Yufu slowly stood up. "If you really need it, buy more. It will also help the people here."
Chu An and Gu Ye also stood up.
"good."
She took out a cell phone from her backpack. It was one of the ones she hadn’t given away that year, so it came in handy now. “Take this first. Let me know when you’ve made up your mind.”
"This...I can't take this." Zhao Yufu refused in panic, the phone was too expensive.
"I'm not giving it to you as a gift. I'll take it back after we finish our business." Chu An took out another two pounds of corn. "This is a small token of my appreciation. It has nothing to do with the transaction. Thank you for your righteous words today."
She was not afraid of being framed, mainly because of Dagouzi. It was indeed a bit hard to accept that a boy was falsely accused of molestation.
If he hadn't proved their character, the big dog would probably have been miserable for a while.
"Xiao An, I can't accept this."
"How about this, I'll leave the things here with you first. If you're sure you can't help me, call me and I'll come get them."
Chu An felt that this would definitely work. After saying that, she and Gu Ye turned around and went downstairs first.
There are a lot of dry goods on the first floor, mainly shellfish, weighing about two hundred kilograms.
Chuan did not choose the variety or quality, but only asked for an integer, 200 kilograms. The price was 30% higher than the market price, that is, 1.3 kilograms of corn for 1 kilogram of dry goods.
They had never sold it at such a high price before, and everyone had a smile on their face after hearing this.
The village chief was overjoyed and asked someone to bring out the scales at home and distribute the money equally to everyone.
