In the RV, the two children always went to bed early, so they were already asleep. Lin Xiaoman gently opened the door and whispered to Wang Cuiqing, "Mom, come out."
Wang Cuiqing, who was looking after the children, got out of the car and saw Chu He. She immediately glared at him and was about to ask, "How dare you come here?"
He had just said the word "you" when he was interrupted by Lin Xiaoman.
"Mom..." Lin Xiaoman shook her head at her.
Wang Cuiqing was extremely angry. She glared at Chu He with gritted teeth, then glared at Lin Xiaoman with disappointment. She snorted twice and turned to Lan Xiaojia. Out of sight, out of mind, she wanted to find someone to complain to.
Chu He knew Wang Cuiqing must have known about this from her attitude, so he could only say gloomily, "Thank you."
Then he tiptoed into the car and walked up to the two children. Chu He stretched out his hand to touch the two children's faces, but was afraid of waking them up, so his hand, which had already been stretched out in the air, dropped down helplessly.
With a silent bitter smile, Chu He stood like a sculpture, staring at the two children with sweet sleeping faces, his eyes full of affection.
Lin Xiaoman did not get in the car, but leaned against the car door and looked at the stars in the sky, his mind wandering.
If this is a rebirth apocalyptic story with Liu Ying as the heroine, then congratulations, the husband Chu He will most likely be able to clear his name.
Well, you can’t say he is black.
Anyway, they should be able to reconcile.
Unfortunately, my wife is gone, now it's her~
"Sister, what's going on?"
Just as Lin Xiaoman was concentrating on writing a million-dollar apocalypse novel, Hao Qiong suddenly appeared and pointed at the car, "When did you meet? What happened to you?"
"There are only two things in this world. One is..." Lin Xiaoman continued to look up at the starry sky with a melancholy expression, as if he was about to express some insights into life, but the next second he changed his mind and said, "It's none of my business! The other one is none of your business!"
Hao Qiong was not stupid either, he immediately understood that this was a roundabout way of scolding him for being a gossip!
Touching his nose in frustration, Hao Qiong said awkwardly, "No, sister, I'm just concerned about you! Are you guys...really bragging? You shouldn't be! That Huang whatsoever is definitely not as good as you! Brother-in-law..."
Turning his head, Lin Xiaoman looked over.
"No, that scumbag!" Hao Qiong, who had a strong desire to survive, immediately changed his words, "Ah, scumbag! He deserves to be blind! Sister, do you want me to help you beat them up to vent your anger? Or, we can blackmail them and make a fortune from them?"
"Do you think the Xichuan base looks rich?" Lin Xiaoman said with disdain.
"Uh... no. I heard that they have a large population and little food in Xichuan, and there are few Chosen Ones, so they are very poor. It's already September of the apocalypse, and I heard that people are still starving to death over there! Their leadership team is really NO, NO, NO..." Shaking his finger, Hao Qiong also looked disgusted, "Tsk, so incompetent!"
"The main reason is that the population base is too large." Lin Xiaoman made an objective evaluation. There are 400,000 to 500,000 survivors in their Wu City base, and there are 4 to 5 million survivors in Xichuan. Feeding so many people is an extremely heavy burden and it is indeed not easy.
"Then... out of humanitarian spirit, should we provide some assistance?" Hao Qiong suggested hesitantly, unable to figure out Lin Xiaoman's attitude.
I have to say, putting personal feelings aside, Hao Qiong still admires Chu He very much.
"Are you Lando?" Lin Xiaoman glanced at him coldly.
"Not much, not much, I'm short of blue!" Hao Qiong shook his head very discerningly, realizing that 'Don't try to guess what a woman is thinking, because guessing is always wrong.'
It’s wrong to call the scumbag a scumbag, and it’s also wrong to provide humanitarian aid, so what do you want?
"However, now that you mention it, I remembered something." Lin Xiaoman seemed to be thinking about something. That damn woman Huang Jiaojiao, she knew that Chu He had a wife, but she still insisted on forming a marriage alliance. Can't you find another way to cooperate?
On purpose!
That woman must have done it on purpose!
There was something she had to figure out.
"You keep watch and pay attention to the surrounding movements! It's night time and the herd is hunting. Don't let any agile and dangerous mutant beasts sneak over!" Lin Xiaoman gave serious instructions and then got into the car.
Hao Qiong, who remained where he was, let out a disapproving "huh" and jumped onto the roof of a nearby car. He stepped on the roofs of nearby cars and made a few leaps, finally landing on the roof of a nearby four-story building. He stopped, surveying the surroundings, and muttered softly, "Where's the danger..."
Huh?
Suddenly seeing a shadowy corner below, Hao Qiong was stunned. What was that?
Wow, it’s actually an idiot playing with an axe in front of Lu Ban’s door.
…
As Lin Xiaoman got into the car, Chu He, who was standing like a sculpture, looked over. Lin Xiaoman was standing in the driving area and waved to him. Chu He walked over silently with light steps.
"Let me ask you something. What is the exchange rate when you trade grain?" Lin Xiaoman asked in a low voice.
Although he didn't know why Lin Xiaoman asked this, Chu He didn't hide it. "As for props, a bottle of low-level magic power is worth 50 kilograms of rice, and a higher life force is worth 60 kilograms. [Skill (Improvement)] is worth 100 kilograms, [Titanium Bag] is worth 150 kilograms, [Attribute Fruit] can be exchanged for 200 kilograms, and special props are all worth more than 500 kilograms. Because of the drop rate, the most traded is low-level magic power."
Hearing this answer, Lin Xiaoman could only laugh.
This is a typical unscrupulous businessman!
"Where do you get your food?" Lin Xiaoman suddenly became suspicious. Doesn't this guy know that food is grown from the wood element?
Chu He was silent for a moment, "Sorry, this involves top secrets."
"Haha." Lin Xiaoman sneered twice. It was top secret, as if everyone knew it!
Lin Xiaoman's voice was somewhat sarcastic, but also a bit sorry for the army. "Is this the so-called internal price for you and Huang Jiaojiao to marry?"
This is really taking advantage of people and making them suffer!
I'm afraid that woman Huang Jiaojiao is also taking advantage of them and is not honest about her grain production at all.
When Chu Youyou's [Wood Spirit Power] was at level one, 10 points of magic power could produce about 100 kilograms of food. After [Wood Spirit Power] reached level ten, the food production of 10 points of magic power increased to nearly 1,000 kilograms.
Because Chu Youyou is still in her forties, her skills can't be upgraded. But once she reaches level 50, with the skill cap raised to 20, it will definitely be another leap forward!
As a high-level mage and a major grain producer, how could Huang Jiaojiao not have maxed out her skills? How could it be possible!
A low-level blue bottle with 5 points of magic power can actually produce 500 kilograms of food, but it only exchanges for 50 kilograms?
Huang Jiaojiao, the middleman, really made a lot of money!
"Isn't this price wrong?" Chu He came to his senses, his eyes darkened, his face thoughtful and full of suspicion.
