Chapter 395 394. On the way to pay off the debt [asking for monthly tickets]

The day's schedule was intensive and tiring. When the car returned home, Huaiyu was already fast asleep in the passenger seat.

Zhou Qian parked the car and got out, only to see the passenger door open. Lin Xuefeng stretched out his long arms and easily carried out Huaiyu, who looked even smaller than before as she huddled in her thick coat.

Zhou Qian was about to say something, but Lin Xuefeng said before him, "Xiao Yu is tired."

How could she not be tired? After a long journey back home, she continued to work non-stop in the afternoon, and she began to nod her head at the garrison base.

Zhou Qian thought of this, and couldn't say anything. She could only watch Lin Xuefeng carry her into the house. This simple house didn't have any distinction between the living room and bedroom. When Zhou Qian built it, she thought it was more than enough for her to live alone, but now she regretted it a little bit.

Now that you are a grown-up girl, you should have your own bedroom.

But no, no, he could only watch Lin Xuefeng put Huaiyu on the bed and said softly, "Xiaoyu."

"Hmm?" Huai Yu was confused.

Lin Xuefeng smiled and stroked her hair again: "We are leaving, take off your clothes and cover yourself with the quilt. It's okay to wash up, we can pack it up tomorrow."

After he finished speaking, he withdrew his hand. The warm temperature on his head disappeared, and Huai Yu became a little more sober. He watched the two tall figures of Lin Xuefeng and Zhou Qian walk out of the door, revealing the moonlight flowing in from outside.

With a creak, the door closed and Xingxing was locked outside.

Huai Yu was confused for a moment, and subconsciously took off his coat. While thinking about brushing his teeth, he pulled the quilt beside him and fell asleep again.

She no longer had to be in the wilderness or in the car, but could return to this small home that made her feel at ease. Even her dreams were filled with bubbles of joy, and the pink and white rose flowers covered the sky and were particularly fragrant.

…

When Huaiyu woke up the next day, the sunlight outside shone in through the crack in the door, and he could see tiny particles of dust dancing in the beam of light that came in diagonally through the crack.

She blinked, looked at the clothes on her body and the coat and pants still on the bed, then realized -

Oh, I fell asleep immediately last night.

Look at the time again, it’s half past ten in the morning…

It’s half past ten!

Huaiyu quickly put on her clothes, and when she opened the door, she saw Lin Xuefeng and Zhou Qian arguing in the yard. In the sunlight, Lin Xuefeng was only wearing a close-fitting sweater, with her forearms exposed, holding a pen between her fingers, her fingers long and strong.

Zhou Qian was looking at him sideways. Under the sunlight, his skin became slightly darker, and two scars were bulging, but his brows looked relaxed and casual.

That's great.

Huai Yu was stunned.

Then Lin Xuefeng looked up at her and smiled: "Are you awake? Are you hungry? I've made some simple porridge by the stove. Go and have a bowl first."

Then he stuffed the pen into Zhou Qian's hand, took two steps forward and asked, "Do you want to wash up later? If you do, I'll go get your bathtub ready. Hot water is always available."

As soon as he said this, Huaiyu felt itchy all over his body: "Yes, yes!"

I was in such a hurry that I didn't even have time to find out what they were discussing.

What they discussed was simple - house planning.

In fact, there are places like this in better communities or locations close to the city. As long as Huaiyu can afford it, she can buy a better location.

In this case, you don't have to think about building a house, you also have to think about how to make people not be afraid.

But what Lin Xuefeng discussed with Zhou Qian was——

"It's better for Xiaoyu to keep her ability to induce childbirth low-key, as well as Dazai and Erzai. Living in a remote area won't be a big disadvantage - I see that although she doesn't have much daily social interaction here, she is actually very relaxed and happy."

"In addition, her ability can allow the Rose Corridor to provide a shortcut, making it easier for us to find food in the wasteland or Sanqing Mountain in the future. This may also be very important to her."

Zhou Qian pondered for a while and said, "You are being conservative. It's not that it might be important, but that it is that important."

In this case, the two reached a consensus - if the house is renovated, it can remain in the original location and there is no need to move.

But if Zhou Qian insisted on building another house for three people, he would live in the middle one in order to guard against the enemy.

Although he didn't say it explicitly, he guessed that Lin Xuefeng should understand what he meant. Xiaoyu was still next to the Rose Corridor, and Lin Xuefeng lived on the outermost side...

This was a good idea that he had thought of over and over again before going to bed last night. Lin Xuefeng did not refuse, but just asked him to study the house type and planning, and talked about it for a long time.

When Huaiyu came out wiping her hair, Lin Xuefeng immediately strode over and asked, "Why didn't you call me?"

Huaiyu laughed: "It's not cold!"

Although there was still some temperature difference at night, the sun was warm on her body during the day, which was very comfortable. And when Lin Xuefeng inserted his fingers into her hair, the wet and cold hair became dry and smooth in an instant, and this feeling of happiness became even stronger.

Huaiyu stretched himself and couldn't help looking at the vegetable garden again. He asked, "What are you discussing?"

"Let's discuss how to repay the debt." Zhou Qian replied.

Speaking of paying off the debt, Huai Yu also began to worry: "It will be a while before I tell Boss Zhao! We were not at home in the winter, and pollutants rained once, and then again during the Jingzhe period. The soil is quite polluted. I have to plant at least three crops to purify it."

Direct purification is also possible, but without plants as a medium for absorption, she would have to put in a lot of effort - experience gained from training in the wilderness.

This kind of pollution requires a certain growth cycle when inducing the growth of plants, and it cannot be purified instantly by inducing them to maturity.

Zhou Qian hadn’t thought of this yet, but he also communicated their ideas with Huai Yu: “In this case, let’s sell some meat.”

What they sold yesterday were ingredients collected in the wilderness, but that did not include the pigs, sheep, pheasants, fish, etc. that they hunted.

Originally Huaiyu meant that although everyone seemed not tired during this period, they were actually in a state of overdraft, so they should save more good things for themselves and replenish themselves.

But now the price of ingredients is good, Boss Tang is a kind person, and besides, I’m deeply in debt, so it’s better to pay it back as soon as possible.

After all, the garrison's cars are always driving around, which is too ostentatious.

Huaiyu thought about it, looked at the igloo not far away that was wrapped in layers of insulation cotton and hay, and nodded: "Then sell half today, we have to eat the rest."

Half the amount was not too much. After all, their main purpose at the time was to travel, and they could not spare time to hunt and collect every night.

Lin Xuefeng then said, "The price of meat should be relatively high. If we sell it, we can probably get more than 30,000 points."

"But Xiaoyu, we still have to keep a few thousand points in our hands - waterwheel materials, house renovation, tools, including the vegetable seeds you want..."

The premise of all this is that Zhao Feiyan is willing to give them the car if they only pay back part of the money.

But Huaiyu was not worried at all - if he was willing to pay it back, they would drive their own car. If he was not willing, they could drive the garrison's car. In addition, they had to prepare some food and meat to send over, and also give some to Chen Xing.

In the wasteland, Chen Xing's contribution could not be simply measured by contribution points. Although Zhao Feiyan did not say anything, all the spare oil and supplies were basically sold to Zhou Qian at the normal wasteland price.

Zhou Qian later met several groups of people. Seeing that he was in a hurry to travel, they all offered very high prices.

Huaiyu also kept all these in mind.

By the time these discussions were completed, it was already noon.

Huaiyu touched her stomach...the bowl of porridge she had before taking a bath was of no use in her stomach, and now she was hungry again.

But unlike before, from today on, they can stay comfortably at home!

…

Boss Tang never thought that happiness would come so quickly.

The fruits and vegetables that he harvested last night had not been completely sorted out, so he spent the whole day in the cold storage counting and calculating. Meanwhile, the communicator rang, and Huaiyu said he could sell him some meat—the mutation value was also below 10, but it couldn't go to the testing station...

It doesn’t matter if it can’t be sold through official channels! Nowadays, there are many good things on the market that cannot be sold through official channels. As long as the other party is trustworthy, it’s fine!

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

He happily agreed, agreed to hand over the goods at the roadside, and then drove over quickly.

But even though he was mentally prepared, he couldn't help but gasp when the carriage opened! "Xiao Yu! You guys are really spending a lot of money this time!"

It’s not that the number is shocking. In fact, the number is much less than yesterday.

But, this is meat!

There are fresh meats frozen directly in ice, as well as properly preserved bacon and dried fish. Because thawing and refreezing will greatly affect the taste, Boss Tang waved his hand and said, "This is good stuff, it's really scarce in the market. Wait for me to take a look first, and then I'll give you a total price."

As for vegetables with low mutation values, those with strong financial resources can still eat them as long as they are willing to spend the money. But meat with such low mutation values ​​is not easy to obtain - as we all know, the lower the mutation value, the better the taste, and the more ferocious the prey will be.

It's just like the more powerful a plant is, the tastier its fruit will be.

Now, with his sharp eyes in business, Boss Tang roughly estimated the price of the various meats in front of him, and then watched Zhou Qian and the man who refused to show his face move the things back to his car, and then whispered: "I estimate it to be more than 80 kilograms. How about this, a flat price of 20,000, okay!"

This price was far beyond the three people's expectations, and Lin Xuefeng couldn't help but glance at Boss Tang. However, Boss Tang didn't notice it at all, and just said with a beaming face: "The product is good, I trust you even without testing..."

They said they didn't test it, but in fact Huaiyu steamed a piece of sausage at noon and brought it over. Boss Tang only took one bite and then gave him a quote.

Now he said something respectful, and Huaiyu listened: "You cleaned the meat well, drained the blood, and probably drained the acid... You don't know, there are good things, but the explorers have enough combat experience, but not enough processing skills. The whole prey was chopped into pieces. And they didn't know that the ingredients should be processed in time. They brought the whole thing back without draining the blood, and it tasted sour and fishy. It was a waste."

The sausages we just ate not only had good seasoning, but the meat itself was also very fragrant. God have mercy on me! It's not easy to eat such a good piece of meat now. Although his body is as round as a penguin now, it's all puffy! In short, with this price plus the contribution points they received yesterday, they can even go to Zhao Feiyan to pay off their debts immediately.

On the way to pay off the debt, Huai Yu hesitated: "Brother Zhou Qian, we have 42,000 points now, and it will take about 35,000 to pay off the debt... Is the remaining 7,000 enough to build a house?"

The soil has to be carefully cleaned, and it will be difficult for her to make a large income in the short term.

Zhou Qian shook his head: "Your house was made from local materials, and because we wanted to shorten the construction time, all new materials were exchanged from within the garrison. Although the house is small, it cost nearly 6,000 points."

I regret it now, very much!

If I had known this, I should have started by building a building with materials worth 10,000 yuan. I was really stupid at the time and was willing to save money for Wu Yue.

“I see…”

Huaiyu pondered - although the house was not built in a hurry, they still had a place to live. But if the construction started, whether it was hiring an architect or workers, Lin Xuefeng would be needed to maintain the water curtain and pay them high salaries.

And all of these represent a large number of contribution points.

What's more, in their imagination, the new house must be bigger than the current one. The three houses together would probably cost more than 30,000 points, right?

Huaiyu counted the accounts and felt that although there was only one more person, the money was becoming less and less spendable.

She suddenly remembered something and looked at Lin Xuefeng in the back seat of the car curiously: "You used to be a garrison officer, you must be very rich, right? What about your points? Because you have no identity, you can't take them out?"

Lin Xuefeng shook his head: "At the beginning, I felt that I had no worries and was destined to die. There was no point in keeping those material possessions."

"so……"

He said slowly: "At that time, they were distributed to the families of familiar comrades who had died."

Huaiyu: “…”

It was unexpected, but that seemed to be Lin Xuefeng's style - once he decided on something, he would do it immediately.

At this moment, Lin Xuefeng slowly held Huaiyu's hand and whispered, "So, Xiaoyu, are you willing to support me?"

A feeling of pity for the poor and the weak suddenly rose in Huaiyu's chest, and at this moment he quickly patted the back of his hand: "Don't worry!"

"What are you talking about? Just work hard! Like Brother Zhou Qian, they actually support themselves!"

"Don't be afraid, I will definitely not let you suffer any injustice."

Lin Xuefeng was speechless, and after a moment he whispered, "Yes. Thank you, Xiaoyu."

Huaiyu felt a little embarrassed, but this emotion only lasted for a moment. She quickly said confidently: "Let's pay off the debt first, and keep the remaining few thousand cents to slowly buy some tools and other things, and then find a way to save more."

"This way, we can move into our new house by fall at the latest!"

But then again…

Seeing that this place was getting closer and closer to the company of [Bai Zhao Subsidy], Huai Yu suddenly frowned in distress: "Brother Zhou Qian, Sister Chen Xing is so good to us, what should we give her?"

There is nothing else around them except food.

But I can't tell the difference between the friendships we get from sending food here and there. I'm worried.

It’s the last day of November. I stayed up all night yesterday and it’s hard to be efficient all day today.

Then I wrote with an author I knew, and he wrote 5,100 words in 27 minutes. I fainted in the toilet crying...

Good night!

See you in December!

Everyone, please check your monthly tickets so they don’t expire!
