Chapter 404: Getting Something for Nothing



Just by listening to Li Youliang's words, they knew that the number of people coming from the grassland was far greater than they had imagined.

There have been constant natural disasters in recent years, and there have certainly been man-made disasters as well, but given the large base number, there are still quite a lot of survivors.

In the past, these survivors were scattered all over the country and had no intuitive feeling.

Now that everyone is gathered together, it naturally feels like there are more people.

Not long after, someone came back on horseback, bringing back beef in a big bag.

Su Nian and Wu Yue walked towards that direction together.

Jing Mo opened the door, and Wu Yue went forward to check the beef and confirmed that there was nothing wrong with it.

There is quite a lot of beef in this bag, at least about 40 to 50 kilograms.

Meat is a luxury nowadays, especially such fresh and high-quality beef.

Of the five remaining sunflowers in the yard, four were given to Li Youliang and his friends, leaving only one.

Before Li Youliang left, Jing Mo explained the situation of the sunflowers to him in detail, "If you want to plant sunflowers again after 30 days, you can come back and change some nutrient solution when the time comes."

Li Youliang was amazed when he heard this, "I didn't expect that in the end times, I could still see such magical plants.

But then again, it is probably only in the end of the world that we can see such magical things.

Don't worry, I will come in a month and bring you some mutton!"

Although people from several bases promised to send things over, Li Youliang's words were the most pleasing to the ear.

Li Youliang and his friends left with the four sunflowers, and the light in Su Nian's yard became dimmer than before.

Well, this dimness is only relative. In fact, the whole yard is still very bright.

Because sunflowers still emit light at night, you can only draw the curtains tightly when you go to bed at night.

Lying in bed at night, Su Nian opened the curtains a little and looked out. Although it was still dark, she could see many lights far and near.

The twinkling stars make this night seem very different from any other night.

Su Nian even had a feeling that this was like going back to the time before the end of the world. This was just an extremely ordinary night.

As she was watching, Su Nian heard Jing Mo's voice ringing in her ears, "What are you looking at?"

Su Nian turned around and glanced at Jing Mo who was close by. "I was just watching. Such a quiet scene is quite nice."

"It's nice to watch, but there's plenty of time to watch it later. Now, it's time to go to bed."

Even after the eternal night, the daily routines of countless people have been completely disrupted, but they have been following the daily routines before the end of the world.

Unless something extremely special happens, their biological clock will never change.

Su Nian closed the curtains and Jing Mo turned off the lights.

——

After the advent of sunflowers, people's lives seemed to become much more normal.

No longer living in endless darkness, people’s moods will not be so depressed, and there will be fewer contradictions and conflicts.

Time flies and it’s already thirty days later.

The sunflowers have wilted and their light has disappeared, but there are countless seeds on the large flower disk.

Those seeds have their own halos, and if it weren't for the wrong shape, they would be somewhat similar to night pearls.

No matter which base it is, this time they have countless seeds.

After proper planning, the seeds were planted on roadsides and in yards.

Of course, seeds don’t grow just by being planted.

In order for the seeds to grow smoothly, they need nutrient solution.

Wu Yue had already prepared the nutrient solution and was just waiting for Kong Jianming and others to come and change it.

When Kong Jianming came, he brought a lot of chickens.

Su Nian and his friends knew very well what was in the First Base.

It’s just other things that Su Nian and the others are not interested in.

The only thing they were interested in was the chickens raised in the First Base, which were really delicious.

Seeing the chickens that Kong Jianming brought over, Wu Yue handed over the prepared nutrient solution without saying a word, "The instructions for use are all written on the paper. As long as you don't make any mistakes, these are completely enough."

Kong Jianming couldn't wait to go back to water the sunflower seeds. After agreeing, he immediately left with his things.

The things that Guan Shao and Shen Cheng brought were similar, including food and weapons.

Wu Yue was not very interested in these things, but she kept them all anyway.

After Guan Shao and Shen Cheng left, Zheng Wu was the only one left outside the gate.

As soon as Wu Yue looked towards Zheng Wu, she met his smiling face.

Zheng Wu's appearance is not particularly outstanding, but he is not ugly either. When he smiles like this, he is quite pleasing to the eye.

Wu Yue had no intention of appreciating Zheng Wu's smile.

With this time, she would rather go back and stew the chicken.

"What do you plan to exchange for it?" Wu Yue asked directly.

The smile on Zheng Wu's face froze for a moment, but he still answered Wu Yue's question, "You know, Sunshine Base is just a small base with few people and not enough resources. It's not like the three major bases that can produce so many things..."

Wu Yue nodded, "I know, so the number of sunflowers you took was the least! You have a lot of seeds in your hand now, but it is up to you to decide how many to plant.

If you plant more, you will need more nutrient solution. If you plant less, you will need less nutrient solution. So how much nutrient solution should you change?"

Zheng Wu moved his mouth and said, "I mean... can you lend me some nutrient solution first? I'll write you an IOU and I'll definitely give you the stuff later."

Wu Yue, "???"

Through the iron gate, Wu Yue looked at Zheng Wu as if she was looking at a fool.

"Do you have anything else to do? If not, I'll leave."

As Wu Yue said this, she turned around and prepared to go directly to the RV.

Although Wu Yue didn't say anything, she couldn't help but wonder in her heart, has her life been too comfortable in the past month?

So life had to give her some spice, and she met such a weirdo today.

What era is it now?

Are you still thinking of getting something for nothing?

Not to mention that there is no friendship at all. Even if the friendship is very good, accounts must be settled when the time comes.

Seeing that Wu Yue was about to leave, Zheng Wu knew that his previous thoughts were too naive.

“Don’t go!”

Zheng Wu quickly spoke up to stop him, "I'll trade you a carrot!"

"Carrot?" Wu Yue stopped and turned to look at Zheng Wu. "You have carrots?"

Zheng Wu nodded. "Yes! My base has always been planting radishes. We use radishes to exchange for the supplies we need with other bases. Our radishes taste great, they are big and juicy—"

"Who cares about this?" Wu Yue interrupted Zheng Wu impatiently, "Since you already have carrots, why did you want to get something for nothing?"
