Chapter 80 Do you have pesticides?

After passing through a tall and heavy iron gate of the shelter, they saw the patrolman raised his hand to them, and the group parked the car near the gate.

Chen Qingqing quickly looked around through the car window.

This place is completely different from the shelter on Gongling Road.

From the appearance of the entrance, it can be seen that this shelter is rare and well-run.

The entrance is a crossroads, and on the opposite sides are two communities. On the first floor outside the community are various businesses, most of which are closed, but some convenience stores and breakfast shops are still open.

I guess the leaders of the shelter allow them to operate.

Although the shelter is in chaos and noisy due to the insect disaster, it is not difficult to see the order in the chaos if you observe carefully.

Some people are walking in a hurry, some are mumbling something, some are praying silently with their hands together, and some are running wildly with insect nets to catch insects.

But strangely, no one comes to stop them.

There are patrols on the streets, but they don't care about these crazy people running and mumbling.

This is a rare state of tension with a little relaxation.

If it were the Gongling Road Shelter, these people would definitely be regarded as disturbing the order and arrested.

But here,

no one forced them to do other things as long as they don't do anything out of line.

Chen Qingqing also had a better impression of this base.

Xiao Huan suddenly pointed out the window: "Mom, look, there are children over there!"

Chen Qingqing looked over and saw that there were indeed several children holding balls and shuttlecocks in their hands, being pulled back by their parents at the street corner.

This was the first time that Chen Qingqing saw so many children in a shelter.

Normally, the shelter has very few places for children.

Chen Qingqing's family was rejected by at least five shelters because they had two children.

As a result, they had to go through a lot more trouble and step into many more pitfalls than a normal family, and they finally found a shelter that could accommodate them after going through a lot of hardships.

Shang Li observed everything around her with curiosity: "Sister, is this the trustworthy shelter you mentioned?"

Chen Qingqing was stunned.

Yes, wasn't she going to find a shelter for Hechuan and others to settle down?

She was still worried that she wouldn't be able to find a suitable one on the way.

Isn't there one right in front of her?

She just didn't know if this shelter with an arsenal would have enough space and resources for researchers to conduct vaccine-related trials.

After all, no one is perfect, and no shelter is perfect either.

It's already a rare achievement to achieve good results in some areas.

After a while, the patrolman with a walkie-talkie stood in front of their car again.

He took off the rifle in his hand, put it on the hood of the car, and knocked on the window again.

Lin Bo slowly rolled down the window.

The other party also lifted the protective shield, revealing a determined face.

He looked to be in his 30s and had a military temperament.

Chen Qingqing guessed that he should be a soldier stationed near the arsenal before the end of the world.

Sure enough, the next second he took the initiative to introduce himself: "I am the patrol captain of the 73rd Shelter. I used to be a guard... My last name is Lu, you can just call me Lao Lu."

"Thank you for leading the way." Shang Li in the back seat came over and smiled, his eyes full of sincerity.

Lao Lu's expression eased a little, and he pulled the corner of his mouth unskillfully and raised a smile: "I have already notified the leader of our shelter. He will bring people here soon. Please wait for a moment."

He paused here and asked, "Have you eaten?"

Shang Li's eyes lit up: "Do you still provide meals here?"

"Normally, we don't provide meals. But the leader said that you have pesticides in your hands, so you must be treated seriously."

Lao Lu told the truth seriously.

Chen Qingqing raised her eyebrows. It seemed that Lao Lu was a very straightforward person.

Then several people introduced themselves. After

listening to their introductions, Lao Lu noticed the two children in the back seat.

His eyes flashed with surprise: "You have been taking care of the children for such a long time?"

"Of course." Chen Qingqing smiled.

Lao Lu nodded in admiration: "That's not easy."

Shang Li was curious: "I just saw a lot of children in the shelter. Didn't they come in with their parents?"

Lao Lu shook his head: "Of course not."

"Most of the survivors who come to us are alone. Even if they have children, some will grit their teeth and abandon their children in order to survive."

"Not everyone regards their children as indispensable family members. When it comes to life and death, most of them will only think that their children are a burden."

Everyone is praising the greatness of family affection, but humans also have selfishness and dark sides.

In the face of life and death decisions, people's selfishness and darkness are infinitely magnified. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, they can abandon everything.

Dignity and freedom can be easily removed, not to mention children, who are "external things".

Shang Li was silent for a long time.

He has been following Chen Qingqing's family since the beginning of the apocalypse, and therefore missed many cruel tragedies in the apocalypse.

He didn't know whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.

Chen Qingqing calmly changed the subject: "Your shelter is willing to keep so many children, so your leader must be a very good person, right?"

Shang Li also said hurriedly: "Yes, we passed by many shelters on the way, and none of them took in so many children like your 73rd Shelter."

Lao Lu smiled when he heard this: "Our leader is indeed a very good person."

"You will know when you see him later."

Before he finished speaking, a sound of footsteps came from far away.

Everyone looked over in the direction of the voice and were stunned.

The leader was actually a woman.

Her hair was tied up in a high ponytail, her face was without makeup, her skin was a little dark, but her expression was very determined.

She was wearing a smart suit, with a well-worn sidearm fixed on her waist, and she strode towards this side.

"Hello, my name is Wu Yue, and I'm the leader of the 73rd Base."

Wu Yue asked straight to the point: "You have pesticides, right?"

Seeing them nod at the same time, Wu Yue asked again: "Who among you is in charge?"

Chen Qingqing got out of the car and walked in front of Wu Yue, extending her hand to her.

"Hello, my name is Chen Qingqing."

"I can make the decision on this deal."

Seeing the person in charge of the same gender, Wu Yue's face was filled with a sincere smile: "Nice to meet you."

"I won't beat around the bush. What do you want? As long as the insecticide is effective, I can satisfy you."

"You can see that our shelter is in a mess now, and we really need insecticide."

"So as long as I can satisfy it, I will definitely agree."

Chen Qingqing likes to communicate with such people: "Then I won't hide it, we want to exchange weapons with you."

"You also know that in such a dangerous situation now, we have to deal with not only zombies, but also all kinds of people with ulterior motives."

"If we don't have weapons, we will feel very insecure."

Wu Yue nodded: "I understand, but as for how many weapons and what types of weapons? This needs to be agreed upon as soon as possible... How much pesticide can you provide us?"

Chen Qingqing paused.

She originally wanted to provide a few boxes, as long as everyone had weapons to protect themselves.

But now she has other ideas.

Chen Qingqing raised her eyes and looked at Wu Yue: "Do you have a research institute here?"

Wu Yue was stunned: "Yes."

"To be honest, I have sent people to develop insecticides urgently since the insect tide started last night."

"Currently, the insecticides on the market are ineffective, otherwise we wouldn't be so busy now."

"...But what do you mean by asking this?"

Chen Qingqing smiled slightly: "If I say that I can sell the formula to you, what do you think?"

Originally, Chen Qingqing and Lin Bo had mixed the two insecticides together in the space last night and put them in new bottles without labels, just to make it easier to change things. But now Chen Qingqing thinks that if Wu Yue gets the formula of the pesticide, she

might make good use of it.
