Xie Zhizhou was indeed very puzzled.
Now that it's the apocalypse, is there any difference between money and ordinary paper?
Many people do think that way.
But for those who want to consolidate power, the value of goods is sometimes just a figure of speech.
The emergence of fish from lakes, along with nutrient solutions or cold-resistant crops, represents a form of power and capital.
"Shall we go take a look tomorrow?" Sister Chen asked, looking at Shen Jing.
"Go ahead, why don't you go?"
Huang Yue agreed, "That's right, let's go see what they're up to!"
Sister Chen continued, "Do we need to bring any money? We don't have much cash, but I do have some silver jewelry."
"They may not actually want the money."
As soon as Shen Jing finished speaking, everyone understood.
No one spoke for a while. The meal was a mix of different flavors, and the party ended early.
At five o'clock in the morning, Shen Jing left the space.
As she passed room 2004, Shen Jing glanced at it but walked past without any expression.
Suddenly, a cold hand touched the back of her neck, making her shiver.
Shen Jing turned her head to look behind her and found that it was indeed the elusive big shot.
Gu Yan pressed her neck to draw her closer, "Where are we going?"
It was at this moment that Shen Jing got a closer look and saw that his complexion was unusually bad.
She asked curiously, "Did the energy backfire again?"
Gu Yan's expression was tinged with deceit. He chuckled, "You're worried about me?"
Shen Jing shook her head firmly, "No."
"I'm doing something really interesting."
"Oh, really?"
Shen Jing suppressed her curiosity; that would kill the cat!
Gu Yan seemed dissatisfied with her reaction, leaned forward and stared into her eyes, saying, "You should be very happy after it's done."
Unless the apocalypse ends, or I actually transmigrate into the book and leave.
Otherwise, what would make Shen Jing "very happy"?
Gu Yan then said, "Everything you want can come true."
"Can I leave this awful place?"
Gu Yan rubbed her neck, then suddenly pulled her into his arms and burst out laughing.
His shoulders were shaking with laughter. "I knew you wanted to leave. Fine..."
The somber voice brushed against Shen Jing's ears, sending shivers down her spine.
Shen Jing understood; Gu Yan was trying to trick her again!
"Let go, get out."
Gu Yan watched Shen Jing walk away angrily before extending his other hand, which appeared to be corroded.
With no one around, the mutated vine tentatively peeked out, but upon seeing Gu Yan's madman-like gaze, it immediately retreated and hid again!
It's the biggest victim of backlash, okay?
Being bound to Gu Yan was the most miserable thing in its vine life, bar none. It actually dared to overestimate its abilities and try to break free of the small world, daring to challenge the world's supreme god...
If he wants to die, he should die on his own. Don't drag this innocent vine down with him!
Ignoring the mutated vine, Gu Yan closed the door to room 2004 with a gloomy expression and continued his self-destructive behavior.
It wasn't snowing outside, and the sky was still overcast.
Although a gunshot incident occurred just yesterday, these are nothing compared to being able to eat fish.
When Shen Jing and her group left, many other residents of the community also came out.
As we walked along the road, everyone was heading towards the lake in the west of the city.
Sure enough, the lake's entrances and exits were already heavily guarded.
Surprisingly, there were quite a few people queuing up again.
It seems the fish-selling thing is true; I just wonder what the West City wants in exchange for it.
The guards were all equipped with guns, so even if ordinary people were furious, they could only keep their anger to themselves.
Shen Jing and the others followed the crowd and joined the line.
As time went by, more and more people came from the city.
After the command post in the west of the city took over the lake, they surprisingly allowed the survivors to fish for themselves.
The condition is that they must hand over 70% to the command post, and only the remaining 30% can be taken home. They must bring their own tools, and the command post will only guarantee their safety in the lake and prevent any serious disputes.
Those who originally intended to cause trouble on the lake lost their courage upon seeing the guns in the guards' hands.
They can only turn to other people, meaning that the remaining 30% of the fish may not be safe to take home.
Upon hearing the announcement from the West City Command Center, Shen Jing turned to leave.
30%? They're dreaming.
She's not going to keep up with this in this cold weather!
"You decide for yourselves." Before leaving, Shen Jing said to Sister Chen and Huang Yue, "But it's best to travel together on the way back, because most of them are people who want to get something for nothing."
Sister Chen and Xie Zhizhou exchanged a glance. "Ah Jing, we still want to give it a try..."
Huang Ling also raised her hand to join them, but she glanced at Huang Yue, wanting to hear his opinion.
Now that the lake was under command, Huang Yue wanted to rejoin the search team. After all, although the search team was a hundred times more dangerous, at least he wouldn't have to put up with those people's rudeness.
He agreed with his daughter's decision, as additional food income was a good thing.
From this point on, the temporary team was disbanded.
However, Huang Yue and Sister Chen both said that if Shen Jing needed anything, she should just call them.
Shen Jing smiled. Her current ability level is D-level, and no one can mess with her yet.
Moreover, she never shows mercy to those who provoke her, and she even remembered to finish off Vassi.
Since the major operation in the west of the city to control the lake, the four command posts in the east, west, south and north of S City have been established to divide power, and there are undercurrents and subtle trends of them taking the lead in S City!
