Chapter 440 The Vicious Female Supporting Character in the Doomsday World 57
An Jing was used to being decisive and swift, and he quickly gathered the top brass of the Capital Security Base. Without the Qin family stirring up trouble, the leadership became much more honest.
An Jing sat at the head and recounted the entire story, giving the others enough time to react before continuing, "Mr. Su, Mrs. Su, and Miss Su are righteous, but we cannot let down the hearts of those who have made such great contributions."
"Qin Lang is still bedridden from his injuries. I don't think he'll be able to recover anytime soon. I'm planning to let Mr. Su take over temporarily. What do you think?"
The senior executives in the conference room exchanged glances and were about to raise objections when An Jing spoke up first, "Don't worry, Mr. Su isn't really interested in this position. He's only taking on this position temporarily. As long as Qin Lang recovers, the position of deputy base commander will remain his."
It is impossible for that old man Qin Lang to get well. If Qin Lang could get well, wouldn't the injuries suffered by those fourth-level Qi Refining cultivators under his command have been in vain?
Wasn't it a waste that he shamelessly asked his eldest niece for the invisibility talisman?
He really paid too much to make someone lie half-dead in bed!
The senior officials glanced at the soldiers behind him who were dressed in a mismatched manner and said: You have already made the decision, why are you still asking us?
An Jing smiled and nodded. "Since you all have no objections, this is settled. Now let's discuss how much reward we should give Mr. Su and the others! What do you think is a suitable reward?"
An old man complained, "We've already given him the position of deputy base commander, what else does he want in return? If he truly means business, he shouldn't ask for anything and just hand over everything to us. Humanity is in dire straits right now, so if he's able, he should contribute more to humanity!"
Su Ziqiao and his team received the news as soon as they entered the base, and they sent people to win them over. However, they didn't expect that the members of the Phoenix Team were a tough nut to crack, and even Qin Shou of the Qin family couldn't take them down personally.
Since such a person cannot be used by the party, he must be suppressed and not given the opportunity to stand out.
A middle-aged man with a full beard sneered, "Haha, that sounds nice, but why don't you share your food and water with those ordinary people out there who are starving? I remember your grandson got a level 4 crystal core a few days ago, right?"
"There are so many people in the base who need crystal cores to improve their abilities. Since you're such a righteous person, why don't you ask your grandson to hand over the crystal cores? Your grandson's ability level is already so high. If you give the crystal cores to those who need them, can't he just go kill zombies?"
The group of people argued a lot, but in the end the majority prevailed over the minority and decided to give Su Dad and the others a large number of level three and level four mutant zombie crystal cores as a reward.
——
That day, Su Li took Xiao Fenghuang and Yu Zeyu out for a stroll as usual. The one adult and two children, each holding an ice cream, walked slowly towards the market area of the base.
Although it is the end of the world, there are still many vendors selling things in the base. Few of them sell food, and most of them sell daily necessities and some valuable items that they don’t need.
However, banknotes are no longer acceptable now, and people have replaced them with crystal cores, food, and water.
If it were someone else, they might be reluctant to use crystal cores, food and water to buy a bunch of gold, jewelry and other useless items, but for Su Li, who has billions of supplies and countless crystal cores, it is like picking them up for free.
The diamond was bigger than a pigeon egg, and the boss asked for five packs of instant noodles for it, which was an absolutely reasonable price. I bought ten packs of instant noodles with a wave of my hand.
The skinny old man with a pale face asked for ten packs of instant noodles for a gold brick weighing half a pound, which was absolutely a bargain price. With a wave of his hand, he bought ten packs of instant noodles and ten sausages!
The emerald green imperial green bracelet, the weak water-type mother with a child asked for a first-level crystal core in price. No problem, with a wave of her hand, she quietly handed over two first-level crystal cores. It was absolutely worth the money!
At this time, Su Li completely forgot about his previous complaints about the male and female protagonists being cruel and exchanging a pack of instant noodles for a crystal core. He strolled around the streets every day, looking for targets to get what he wanted.
As soon as Su Li and the other two stepped into the market, the vendors who had been wilted and listless by the sun suddenly became energetic and greeted them in loud voices.
A woman who was too hungry to speak, seeing Su Li swaggering towards them with two children, immediately shouted at the top of her voice: "Don't miss it if you pass by. You can't afford to lose money, you can't afford to be cheated. It's a big sale!"
"Miss Su, a seven-carat diamond ring costs only five packs of instant noodles. Would you like one?"
The woman selling diamond rings picked up a big and shiny diamond ring from the stall and looked at Su Li with hope in her eyes.
When Su Li got closer, he could see that on a piece of blue coarse cloth neatly spread on the ground were more than twenty dazzling diamond rings of various sizes. In addition, there were several diamond necklaces reflecting dazzling light, and various gold and silver jewelry.
With so many diamonds and jewelry, the stall owner must have either robbed a jewelry store or is a wealthy woman who has fallen on hard times.
"Miss Su, do you want them? These diamond necklaces are even more beautiful. They've only been worn once or twice. One only costs ten packets of instant noodles and five bottles of mineral water. Do you want to take them all?"
The stall owner was a woman in her early thirties. Even though she was pale and thin from hunger and looked nervous, she still couldn't hide her natural noble temperament.
When she saw Su Li coming, she smiled and worked even harder to sell the things placed on the coarse cloth.
Miss Su is the only daughter of Deputy Base Commander Su, a level six psychic. She is also a space psychic herself. It is said that she has stockpiled countless supplies. Now that she has met Miss Su as a buyer, she should be able to have a good meal today.
Su Li met the woman's eager and hopeful eyes, reached out to take the diamond ring and looked at it.
She has bought a lot of diamond jewelry recently and is a little tired of it, but since the rich sister is working so hard, she should give her a chance!
This is a good way to use the supplies we have accumulated since coming to this world to help those in need.
Well, it’s definitely not that she has a bad heart!!
Su Li squatted down and looked at the items on the coarse cloth one by one. He picked up a sapphire necklace and looked at the woman: "Are you selling them all?"
You can tell at a glance that these things have been well preserved by the owner. If you buy them all, the stall owner will probably be reluctant to part with them!
Cheng Ying's eyes lit up instantly when she heard this, and she nodded quickly: "Sell, sell them all! If Miss Su likes it, you can buy them all. I can give Miss Su a discount."
Although these things were her treasures, she had no food to eat now, and keeping them would only cause her sadness. It would be better to exchange them for food so that she and her daughter could survive for a while longer.
"Okay, I'll take them all. What flavor of instant noodles do you want?"
Cheng Ying's eyes widened in astonishment: "All of them? I... I can choose the flavor myself?"
Su Li looked at her strangely: "Of course, I'm not one of those unscrupulous merchants, so of course you can choose. If you want something else, that's fine! I also have compressed biscuits, canned fruit, and spicy hot pot..."
