Kong Shangjie, who had originally planned to take the group to continue visiting the entire base, felt that he had made a big profit when he learned that they did not need to continue visiting the base and only needed to understand the current situation of the D City base.
"There's nothing complicated about this base. The base commander's surname is Yuan. He was an official in D City before the apocalypse. But now he doesn't really run things. It's all run by Adjutant Zhang Anguo. And many of the management in the base are relatives and friends of Yuan and Zhang. In short, this is a family-run base, similar to a family business. It's really causing trouble for us ordinary people!"
The young Kong Shangjie sighed, which made Su Jin laugh.
"Is there a shortage of food here?" Su Jin asked.
"It's more than just a shortage. It can be said that there is no food at all."
Kong Shangjie said this, and at the same time he envied the few people who had just casually taken out two kilograms of food.
"What do you think if someone sells food here?"
Lu Hao also asked.
"Hahaha, what you're saying is hilarious. How could anyone still be selling food at a time like this? If there really were someone, they'd definitely be worshipped like a god!"
Kong Shangjie seemed to think that selling grain was a fantasy.
"I see, we are here to sell supplies."
Su Jin looked at Kong Shangjie and said.
???!
Selling supplies?
How to sell?
"Are you... telling the truth?!"
Kong Shangjie thought of the few people who had just been generous and couldn't help but ask happily.
Su Jin nodded. If possible, they wanted to try selling some of the products here first, and did not want to spread the news throughout the city like they did in City A.
"Can I buy some first? I still have thousands of crystal cores where I live!"
Kong Shangjie asked with shining eyes, if there is food, he will buy it no matter how expensive it is.
"Of course, you can bring some of your friends to buy first."
As soon as Su Jin finished speaking, Kong Shangjie ran out the door like flying and shouted loudly: "I'll be there later!"
The family shrugged helplessly, and then looked around their temporary residence. The house was indeed spacious enough, especially its hall. Su Jin felt that the hall alone was about 100 square meters.
But before they could sit down to rest, there was a noise outside the door.
"Xiao Kong, you'd better not lie to us. The extra distance I walked is at least worth half a bowl of porridge."
"Yeah, you little brat, do you know how many days I've been lying there without moving? If you dare to lie to me, I'll stew you and eat you!"
"Oh my big brothers and sisters, I told you such a good thing and not only did you not thank me, but you also wanted to get rid of me. It really makes me feel disappointed."
Kong Shangjie's voice also came over.
As soon as they pushed the door open and walked into the yard, they were shocked by the scene before them.
A row of honest-looking people sat neatly in the middle of the courtyard, with a few tables in front of them. Most importantly, those tables looked filled with supplies! There were even pancakes and eggs?!
"Fuck! Dayu, pinch me! Am I blurry-eyed or dreaming?"
Following a scream, Luo Han, who was brought here by Kong Shangjie, finally realized that he was not dazzled or dreaming, but that someone was really selling supplies!
But being pinched by the power-type Dayu really hurts!!!
Kong Shangjie ran to the front with his eyes shining. That old man actually had so many pancakes for sale!
“How much does this rice cost?”
Kong Shangjie asked.
"30 crystal cores per pound, and the same goes for the flour next to it. Here's the price list, let's take a look."
Huang Yunxiang introduced enthusiastically.
The four people were shocked by the price of 30 crystal cores per pound of food. They no longer had the heart to look at the price list and rushed forward to buy food.
"There are enough supplies, don't worry. If you are hungry, you can buy some ready-made food nearby."
Su Jin smiled and said that they had just arrived and customers came to buy things so soon. It seemed that business would not be too bad in the future.
After hearing what Su Jin said, Kong Shangjie decisively bought a pancake and a portion of stewed meat and sat down to eat. He only called these four friends over, so their supplies shouldn't be sold out so quickly.
The woman named Dayu also looked at the supplies in front of her in disbelief.
She saw Kong Shangjie eating beside her, and could vaguely smell the aroma of meat in the air. She couldn't help but buy something exactly the same and started eating it. It turned out to be a pancake, and the meat of this so-called mutant animal seemed to be even more delicious than pork ribs!
"Wow, where did you come from? You actually have supplies for sale!"
Zhao Le and Chen Ran also joined Kong Shangjie and Dayu in eating. Until the food entered their mouths, they still felt how unreal this moment was.
"We just came from City A. Before, we were wandering around collecting supplies and then selling them."
Su Jin explained.
"I think you're selling it too cheaply. Let alone 30 crystal cores, there are people scrambling to buy even 300 crystal cores."
Kong Shangjie felt that he was full. His stomach, which had been hungry for a long time, had become very small in capacity. Now, eating a little bit of food made him feel that it was enough.
"Haha, we are not profiteers. We will sell as much as we can. It's not easy for everyone in this apocalypse."
Lin Cheng's words moved several people to tears. These people looked like good people. They were really great.
"Don't worry, we will definitely bring enough guests for you."
Kong Shangjie stood up and said, he opened the backpack on his back, poured all the crystal cores in the backpack onto the table, and then counted them carefully.
I never thought that these useless crystal cores could be used again one day.
Seeing this, the other people also took out the crystal cores they had brought with them. Zhao Le was a space-based mutant, so his crystal cores were all in the space.
Among them, Zhao Le had the most crystal cores. There were more than 10,000 crystal cores in his space. Probably because he was a space ability user, he would throw any crystal core he hit or picked up into the space.
Chen Ran and his companions lamented that it was a pity. They had previously thought that the crystal cores were of no use, so they had not collected them properly.
However, they feel lucky enough to be able to exchange some crystal cores for some supplies.
"We will stay here for about 10 days. If you have time, you can get more crystal cores and come to us to exchange for supplies."
Su Xiangzhe explained that 10 days should be enough for them to absorb the crystal cores here.
"Really?! But I doubt you can sell enough supplies for ten days. Don't be fooled by the desolate exterior of the base. There are actually quite a lot of people inside. They're just staying home to conserve their energy!"
Zhao Le said.
