Chapter 203: E Area Base Inquiry
After eating, Wei Changli and his team rested for a while, extinguished the campfire and left.
Yao Tao woke Bai Lin up and said, "Let's go too."
Bai Lin asked sleepily, "Where are we going?"
"E-area base."
Yao Tao did not touch the dismembered mutant deer corpse and left it where it was.
If Wei Changli and others made a surprise attack and found that the deer's body was missing, they would definitely be suspicious.
Where did the inedible parts go?
At around 2 pm, Yao Tao and Bai Lin arrived at the E Area base.
Many survivors gathered at the gate of the base. They were queuing up to pay for supplies and waiting to register to receive passes.
Yao Tao asked Bai Lin to wait there while she found the base personnel responsible for delivering the supplies and took out the signature card given to her by Wei Changli.
The base personnel were stunned and looked her up and down.
"Is this useful?" Yao Tao asked generously.
"The captain's recommendation is certainly helpful." The base staff hurriedly smiled and said, "With this card, you can be exempted from paying for supplies. Come with me, I'll help you register and get your card."
"Wait a minute, I have a companion." Yao Tao turned around and called Bai Lin over.
The base personnel hesitated and said, "One card can only give one person free."
"I'll pay for his share of the supplies." Yao Tao said readily.
"That's great, otherwise we'd be in a difficult position. The rules are set by the base commander." The base staff pointed to the sign behind them, "A man can pay five kilograms of fresh meat, or half a kilogram of dried meat, or five packs of instant noodles and five bags of biscuits."
In the end times, staple foods are more valuable than meat.
Because meat can be obtained by hunting, but staple food is consumable and the more you eat, the less you have.
The crops grown in the fields in the apocalypse are all mutated and cannot be eaten at all.
Yao Tao directly took out five packs of instant noodles. The base staff were very happy and personally took them to register.
The survivors in line were immediately upset when they saw Yao Tao and Bai Lin pass them and go to the front.
“Why should they cut in line?”
The base personnel turned around and glared at them. "They have the recommendation of the guard captain. Is it your business?"
Yao Tao went straight to the registration office without even looking back.
She disdained to argue with the survivors.
What's the use of showing off your eloquence?
Not only does quarreling waste your breath, it also consumes your energy and harms your body.
After registering, she and Bai Lin each received a pass.
Yao Tao held Bai Lin's pass and asked him, "If you lose it, you have to apply for a new one. Are you sure you won't lose it?"
"No." Bai Lin answered simply.
Yao Tao was discouraged.
But this was also within her expectations.
Bai Lin fights and kills every day, so it's normal for him to lose things. It's better to leave them with her.
"Then leave it with me first, and ask me for it when you need it."
Bai Lin nodded, but he didn't take it to heart at all.
He doesn't need any passes.
It only takes a few seconds for him to go wherever he wants, and no one can stop him.
If you want to stop him, cut him in half first and then deal with him.
The two entered the E-area base.
The difference between the E-area base and the resettlement site is that there is a market of a certain scale here.
Survivors can barter here for the daily necessities they need.
Yao Tao took Bai Lin for a walk around the market.
Most people sell meat.
Staple foods are shockingly expensive.
Things like canned food and sausages are considered luxuries.
Some people are also selling "fur".
The animal furs that were extremely expensive before the end of the world can only be exchanged for two pieces of fresh animal meat or a piece of dried meat here.
Yao Tao also found some survivors selling clothes.
The clothes were old and had stains of unknown origin on them. They were probably taken from the dead.
Yao Tao wandered around the market for a long time without buying anything. Then a man wrapped in animal skins approached her and whispered, "Miss, you've just arrived at the E-area base, right? Would you like me to be your guide? I'm a know-it-all here, and I can get you all the information you need."
Yao Tao couldn't help but smile when she saw the man.
This is the person she is looking for.
The gossiper of Area E base, Jia Baoqiang.
