Yao Rui has counted all the crystal cores, but she is also faced with a worrying problem. She did not expect that she could buy so many supplies here. She is not a space ability user, so where should she put the exchanged supplies?
It is obviously too unsafe to store so many supplies in the dormitory.
But I can't carry it with me every day.
"Put it with Zhao Le. Our supplies are all in his space."
Dayu, who had already sold all the porridge, said that she had found some crystal cores, so she came over to exchange for supplies. Unexpectedly, she met Yao Rui, who had a huge number of crystal cores.
"Zhao Le?"
Yao Rui knew Zhao Le, but she was not familiar with him. How could she feel at ease leaving her supplies with him?
"Don't worry, Zhao Le is just an idiot, and he was so scared when he saw the zombies that his legs went limp. That's why we put the things with him."
Yao Rui found Dayu's blunt words funny, but she was still worried. When Zhao Le heard that Yao Rui wanted to put the supplies in his space, he said with a smug look on his face: "Put them in my space? But you have to pay the crystal core as a storage fee, otherwise I can't put them in your space for free."
"Yao Rui, don't be angry. We have to pay him for the storage of our supplies in his space."
Kong Shangjie also walked over and said.
"I'm not angry. I'm willing to pay the storage fee, but let me be frank: if you try to covet my supplies, I will go to the ends of the earth to catch you and burn you into jerky."
Yao Rui said as a large fireball ignited in her hand while looking at Zhao Le.
“…”
Zhao Le was a little depressed. How could keeping something for someone else be life-threatening?
Otherwise, he wouldn't earn any money from the storage fee...
As timid as Zhao Le was, he finally accepted the large amount of supplies tremblingly under Yao Rui's threatening gaze. Of course, the storage fee Yao Rui gave was also considerable, which made Zhao Le feel a lot more balanced.
Yao Rui not only bought rice and flour from Su Jin, but also bought a lot of ready-made bread, eggs and stewed meat, as well as some toiletries and clothes, which made Dayu envious.
“Thank you for coming here to sell supplies.”
Yao Rui walked up to Su Jin and thanked them. Although these people were just conducting a normal fair transaction, in a sense, they really saved her life.
"You're welcome. Your name is Yao Rui?"
Su Jin asked with a smile.
"Yes, I am Yao Rui."
Yao Rui suddenly had a misconception: did this person know her? Why had she never seen her before?
"Hello, my name is Zhang Xiaohong"
Su Jin said that she still wanted to cheer Yao Rui on, but that would be too obvious.
Because the name Yao Rui, if she remembered correctly, was the name of the director of the D City base in the second year of her previous life.
The reason why she remembered the name of the base commander was because she was the first female base commander in the apocalypse. It was said that after she became the base commander, she also cleaned up the corrupt management of City D. She was a very decisive base commander.
Yao Rui smiled at Zhang Xiaohong in front of her, then said goodbye to Dayu and the others and left.
"know?"
Lu Hao came over and asked.
Su Jin shook his head and wanted to explain, but now there were more customers coming to buy supplies, so he could only say: "I don't know him, I'll explain it to you later."
Lu Hao nodded and continued to greet the guests who could hardly stand by holding on to the table.
Lin Yunguo felt uncomfortable again. Why were these people so miserable? So he took advantage of the break time to go into the space and cook a big pot of porridge, and put some yams grown in the space in it.
After learning about Lin Yunguo's idea, Su Jin also expressed his support.
They set up a porridge stall at the entrance. Of course, it was not free. Anyone who came in to buy supplies only needed five crystal cores to get a bowl of porridge. This also provided some relief to those who were so hungry that they felt dizzy and could not walk steadily, so that they did not even have the strength to speak.
…
The northernmost yard in the base became famous in just two days.
At first, people only noticed that many people who struggled to get up from their beds would walk towards the wall, holding onto the wall for a few steps, but when they came out again not long after, they were full of energy and even carried a lot of things on their backs...
Later on, people at the base gradually realized that there was a team selling supplies there!
And the price is extremely cheap. 30 crystal cores can buy one kilogram of grain, and they are even selling eggs?
For a moment, the gate of the yard was crowded with people who crawled out from all corners. Su Jin had no choice but to give out some supplies and ask Kong Shangjie to help find someone to maintain order. At least there had to be a queue.
"No wonder he said before that there are too many people in this base. Isn't this a bit too many?"
Lin Xiuyuan stood on the roof and looked outside. He could barely see the end of the line...
"It seems like there are too many. We have to sell them day and night."
Lu Guanhai was also amazed. It turned out that there were so many people in this base. Moreover, those who came to buy supplies actually had a lot of crystal cores in their hands. Even the old and weak people had hundreds or thousands of crystal cores in their hands.
"This is normal. There was a zombie wave before, and then there was a period of time when everyone went out to kill zombies every day. But later on, no one could buy supplies, so the crystal cores were left."
Kong Shangjie has become a regular visitor to this courtyard. He can immediately explain any questions people have.
"City D was an important grain-producing area before the apocalypse. It shouldn't be so short of food, right?"
Su Xiangzhe chatted with Kong Shangjie while weighing the rice. D City used to be adjacent to H City, and many of the food in H City was produced here. Unexpectedly, the people who are the hungriest now are also here.
"Ah, it's been monopolized by those people. There was a Captain Xing before, who risked his life every day to retrieve several trucks of supplies. I heard that they all starved to death later."
Kong Shangjie said in a low voice.
“…”
For the first time, Su Xiangzhe felt that Kong Shangjie's information was a little unreliable. It turned out that in the minds of the people in City D, Xing Taining and others were starved to death?
"puff"
Lin Xiuyuan turned his head and laughed silently. He really didn't know what expressions the people in S City would have when they heard it.
"It's a pity. If this place is well developed, it should be able to support many people."
Su Jin said with regret.
The news that a few people were selling supplies quickly reached the base's management. On the third day, a team of uniformed people came directly to the base and wanted to disperse the survivors who were queuing to buy supplies.
"We buy our own, what does it have to do with you!"
"You won't sell food to us, but you won't allow others to sell it?"
"Do you want us to starve to death here?"
