Su Dai glanced around, dumbfounded and whispered:
"I didn't expect that there are so many people who have boats nowadays?"
Kong Wu: "Isn't this just like the saying goes: If you haven't been to the capital, you don't know how low your official position is; if you haven't been to Pengcheng, you don't know how little money you have; if you haven't been to the box,
you don't know--" "Kong Wu!" Song Qian turned his head and gave him a stern look.
Kong Wu's neck shrank and he stopped talking.
Jiang Yan ignored their chatter, but took out a small mirror from her backpack and looked at herself from front to back.
Seeing that the forehead exposed under the hood of her down jacket was a little white, she simply reached out and picked up some black ash from the edge of the boat and smeared it directly.
There was no clue in other places.
Anyway, the mask is gray, and the clothes, pants and shoes are all gray.
Just shake it three times and you can get a floor full of black ash.
"Ah! Jiang Yan, you don't even let go of the blind spots." Seeing this, Su Dai also followed suit.
The boat in front was moving little by little, and the few people could only walk slowly and patiently.
At this moment, the sky was gradually getting dark.
Jiang Yan looked at the time, it was about 5:30 in the afternoon.
As they got closer and closer to the shore, noisy horns came from the shore:
"Please take away the valuables on the boat!"
"Pay the materials to offset the boat storage fee. If the boat exceeds the storage period, it will be damaged or lost, and we will not be responsible!"
"We will not be responsible for accidents such as falling into the water, oil leakage, and damage during the parking of the boat!"
"Pay the materials to check in the boat!"
"The materials paid are limited to food, energy, clothing, cloth, tools, weapons, etc. Gold, jewelry, famous bags, watches, etc. will not be accepted!"
"."
Jiang Yan looked up and saw a middle-aged man on the floating bridge, with a rusty big speaker on his waist, repeating the pre-recorded words.
He paced slowly, and his eyes were very arrogant. Scanning the people on the boat.
A few months ago, these people might have been business owners worth hundreds of millions, or they might have been executives of a company who had to travel in first class and stay in a five-star hotel, or even high-ranking officials of a government unit.
But now, without exception, they are all refugees.
Refugees who survived and came to Xiangcheng.
"Master, it sounds like the boat is parked here, and if there is a problem, it has nothing to do with you?" Seeing the man approaching, a young man on the first speedboat that was about to dock asked.
"Yes." The middle-aged man didn't even raise his eyelids.
The young man couldn't help but say in a sarcastic tone: "Isn't this an unfair clause?!"
The middle-aged man glanced at him unhappily, "If you have any objections, you can choose not to park here!"
He almost wrote the words "I have the final say in my territory" on his face.
"You" The young man choked and was pulled back by the people around him.
Su Dai couldn't help but complain in a low voice: "This is the way of the world"
"Okay." Sun Jingtao gave her a hint with his eyes and stopped her from talking.
Jiang Yan watched silently without saying a word.
In the doomsday world, the strong are the makers of all rules.
Others must either adapt to it, change it, or leave it.
There is no other way.
As for the bartering that occurred here, several people had chatted on the way, so it was all within expectations.
And they had prepared in advance and divided out some of the things that could be exchanged in advance.
After waiting for four or five minutes, their boat was finally able to drive to the pontoon.
"You wait for me on the boat, I'll go through the formalities and inquire about the surrounding situation by the way." Sun Jingtao said, picked up a small bag of supplies that he had prepared earlier, and stood up.
Ye Qing: "Brother Tao, I'll go with you."
Sun Jingtao nodded.
The two of them stepped onto the floating bridge one after the other.
Jiang Yan and the others took out all the luggage in the cargo hold.
The bottom of the hold was dirty, and the few people didn't care and just put everything in the bottom of the hold.
Kong Wu looked at Song Qian, "Brother Song, what about the gasoline? Should we take it with us?"
"How much is left?"
"The tank is almost empty. I listened to you and didn't add more. There is still half a bag left in the oil bag."
"Yes, take it away." Song Qian nodded.
After sitting for only a few minutes, Sun Jingtao and Ye Qing came back.
Judging from the amount of supplies left in their hands, the supplies they handed in were not many.
Behind them, there was a young man with a nose ring and a tattoo on his neck.
The young man was holding a crumpled A4 paper in his hand.
There was still some distance from the boat, so Sun Jingtao stopped the young man and took the paper from him. "Little brother, wait for us here, we will finish the discussion soon."
"Brother, these houses are easy to rent. If you miss this opportunity, you will miss it!" The young man glanced at the people in the boat, and his eyes were filled with uncontrollable joy.
"Okay." Sun Jingtao didn't say much, and he and Ye Qing got on the boat one after another.
Su Dai glanced at the young man on the shore and said, "Honey, who is that person?"
"You can think of it as a one-stop life guide for a rental agency with internal authorization and special VIP channels from the base."
Sun Jingtao said with a smile, sat down opposite Jiang Yan, and handed her the A4 paper:
"Jiang Yan, you have contributed the most materials along the way, so we want to hear your opinion on the type of house to rent."
Song Qian heard this and couldn't help but look at Jiang Yan.
Along the way, Sun Jingtao and others didn't ask Jiang Yan for her opinion.
It seemed that they all knew what to do and what to do. They
all rushed to do it in front.
On the surface, it seemed that they ignored each other, but now it seemed that they were protecting each other.
Jiang Yan was quiet along the way, without much conspicuous performance.
Of course, with the four of them around, she didn't need to show too much.
He always thought that among the four, Sun Jingtao, who was the oldest and relatively calm and experienced, was the leader.
As for what he said about Jiang Yan contributing the most materials, it was not very tenable.
After all, along the way, among the few people, those who had materials contributed materials and those who had strength contributed strength.
It was relatively fair.
So to him, this statement sounded more like a deliberate reason to let Jiang Yan make the decision first. On
the surface, this seemed to be a trivial matter, not worth mentioning at all.
But his keen intuition told him that this young girl was not simple.
Recalling some of the situations in the sky hotel before, he suddenly realized that he seemed to have underestimated this girl who was a little quiet along the way.
Something flashed through Song Qian's mind.
He pondered for a second, then looked up at Jiang Yan, "Jiang Yan, excuse me, before the end of the world, have you ever been abroad?"
"No."
Jiang Yan calmly took the A4 paper from Sun Jingtao and raised her eyelids slightly:
"Why do you suddenly ask this question?" (End of this chapter)
