Chapter 31 Bicycles and Electric Vehicles
Tan Songhai is an ordinary person in the Southern Base. At the age of 40, he is still in his prime and strong, but because he is not a person with special abilities, he cannot do many things and can earn very little supplies.
Tan Songhai and his wife have been married for many years and have only one daughter. Their daughter is only in her teens this year. The three of them are ordinary people and have not awakened any special powers.
There are three elderly people in Tan Songhai's family. Tan Songhai's mother died of illness in her early years. Before the end of the world, he and his wife took care of the three elderly people.
Now that the end of the world has come, they are still the ones who support the three elderly people.
In fact, at the beginning, the three old people wanted to commit suicide so as not to add burden to their children.
In such a world, how can these elderly people help? They can only cause trouble to the children.
Tan Songhai was very fortunate that the southern base was established quickly, otherwise the three elderly people in his family would really commit suicide to avoid causing them trouble.
But to be honest, the burden on the Tan family is really heavy.
Fortunately, the Southern Base is an official base and the base’s senior management manages it very well, otherwise Tan Songhai’s beautiful wife and teenage daughter would be in danger.
Tan Songhai's daughter Tan Lele is really beautiful. Although the fourteen-year-old girl is thin, her face is real. One can tell at a glance how stunning she will be when she grows up.
Although she is still very young at the age of fourteen, there are some people with very low moral standards who also covet Tan Lele.
For example, the one who complained that the higher-ups at the base wanted to kill ordinary people.
"Uncle Tan, are you really going out? What if you encounter danger if you leave the base?" The young man said to Tan Songhai with a worried look on his face.
"Uncle Tan, Lele is so young. What if something dangerous happens if he goes out with everyone? Why not let Lele stay at home? I can help take care of Lele." The man said, patting his chest.
"No need." Tan Songhai said with a cold face, "We will take care of Lele ourselves."
If this guy hadn't really done anything wrong, he would have beaten him up a long time ago.
But Tan Songhai still hated the other party and it was impossible for him to leave his daughter here for the other party to take care of her.
"Songhai, the team is about to assemble, don't dawdle." Tan Songhai's father shouted at his son.
Tan Lele held her grandmother's hand and didn't want to look at that guy who couldn't change his lazy and gluttonous nature even though it was the end of the world.
"Songhai, let's go." Tan Songhai's wife Liang Yun said to her husband that they had to hurry to the gathering place, and then everyone would go out together to collect things and exchange supplies.
Tan Songhai was too lazy to bother with that guy, so he took his wife, daughter and three elders to the assembly point of the base and set off with the main force.
There are quite a few survivors in the southern base, and many of them have left in batches.
This time, Tan Songhai and his team had 300 people. After getting on the hovercraft, they quickly arrived in City F, and then everyone divided into groups to collect supplies.
"Mom, can this also be exchanged for points?" Tan Lele pointed to the shared bicycles and shared electric vehicles on the street and asked her mother.
Yes, in 2099 there will still be shared bicycles on the streets, and electric vehicles have also become shared.
The rows of shared bicycles and shared electric vehicles on the streets are now abandoned. Even if the electric vehicles still have power, they cannot be ridden if they cannot be started.
Moreover, bicycles and electric bikes have no shielding to protect the people on them. If they are caught up and attacked by zombies by accident, they can easily get injured.
Electric bikes and bicycles are not very fast, so this may be the reason why they were abandoned after the apocalypse.
"Husband?" Liang Yun looked at Tan Songhai and asked.
"Of course you can redeem points." Tan Songhai nodded. "Look, it says above that abandoned vehicles can be redeemed. The redemption points for bicycles are 30, and for electric vehicles are 50."
"Then Dad, let's exchange the shared bicycles and electric bikes?" Tan Lele said happily.
"How do we transport it?" Tan Songhai frowned.
"You can use a bicycle." Liang Yun said, "Put the electric bike on the back of the bicycle, tie it up, and then ride the bicycle over."
Tan Songhai and others thought this was a good idea, so the family of six gathered their bicycles and electric bikes together and rode towards the hotel to warm the wine.
Tan Songhai's father-in-law, mother-in-law and father are all old, but they are in good health and can carry two bicycles tied to the back seat.
So the Tan family tried several times and finally transported more than a dozen bicycles and electric vehicles to Wenjiu's hotel.
Everyone in Tan Songhai's family has entered their identity information, and the three elderly people are no exception. They have all entered their information, and after exchanging points for bicycles and electric vehicles, they have also saved them in their respective information cards.
Tan Songhai went to the restaurant to buy a few sandwiches, and then the family of six ran out to look for various supplies.
"We can really exchange it for food." Tan Lele said happily while eating a sandwich, "Dad, we can have food to eat without killing zombies."
Tan Lele is only fourteen years old. She has not awakened her special powers. Although she has followed the training, her strength cannot be increased.
Her family was also worried about her, so she never went out to kill zombies.
In fact, she is also very afraid of zombies, and she is not very brave.
In their family, her father Tan Songhai goes out to kill zombies and do other things to exchange for supplies, and her mother also goes out to find ways to earn supplies.
She has always been worried about her parents. If something happened to her parents, she and the three elderly people would not know how to live.
Now, her family can also find other supplies to exchange for points.
"Mom, this sandwich is so delicious." Tan Lele said happily, "I have never eaten such a delicious sandwich."
Before the end of the world, the Tan family was just an ordinary family. Tan Songhai's annual salary was only about 300,000 yuan, which could be said to be a very ordinary well-off family.
Therefore, Tan Lele has never eaten in any top-notch restaurants or eaten in any top-notch ingredients.
But she still knew that the sandwich she had today was absolutely delicious, even better than those from top restaurants she had heard of before.
"Yeah, very delicious." Liang Yun also ate happily. This sandwich was really delicious.
"Hubby, we don't have to worry about starving to death anymore." Liang Yun said happily.
"Yeah." Tan Songhai nodded.
"Let's go, let's go find more things to exchange for points." Tan Songhai's father urged. They left their bicycles behind and everyone rode a bicycle to search for supplies on the streets that had been cleared of all dangers.
We need to find more supplies that can be exchanged for points so that they can eat well and won’t continue to go hungry.
Their daughter Lele is only fourteen years old and still growing, so they cannot let her starve.
This hotel, which allowed them to exchange food, was a great opportunity.
