Chapter 74 Bar



When Jemoka saw that Ji Xian's SUV was stuffed with beef, compressed biscuits, and white rice, he was completely stunned.

"Is this how you transported the supplies?"

Ji Xian nodded.

Upon hearing this, Jemoka subconsciously wiped away imaginary cold sweat from his forehead: "Aren't you afraid of the news leaking out and you getting robbed on the way?"

Ji Xian shook his head: "I'm not afraid."

Even if you rob someone on the road, you won't find any supplies.

Unaware of Ji Xian's secret, Jemoka said, "If you need anything in the future, just let me know. I can provide you with protection services free of charge, after all, we're such good friends..."

Ji Xian didn't exchange any pleasantries with Jemoka and said, "Now that I've brought so many things, surely you can take me to a bigger city?"

Jemoka nodded quickly: "Yes, yes."

Jemoka immediately arranged for people to prepare for the plane's takeoff.

Anyway, he was going to take out a large portion of these supplies to sell in other cities, so taking Ji Xian along was just a side thing.

Jemoka appraised some of Ji Xian's supplies and gave him energy points. These were just the prices for beef and compressed biscuits; the price of rice was yet to be determined.

Jemoka plans to take the rice to big cities and set a price based on how popular it is.

Ji Xian had no objection.

He knew that Jemoka could make a lot of profit from it, but Ji Xian couldn't make all the money by himself. He had to share some of the profits with others so that he could also get some benefits.

For example, right now, he can bring over a huge amount of supplies and sell them all to Jemoka at once, saving him the trouble of buying them piecemeal.

While that would indeed earn more, time is still a cost, and moreover, selling directly increases the risk of his secret being exposed.

Ji Xian and Xia Luoxue boarded a small plane that was 12 meters long.

A powerful push propelled them into the sky.

Looking down at the earth from the plane, the earth's color is generally grayish-brown.

In many places, nothing grows.

However, in many places the shrubs are unusually lush.

This is all due to radiation.

Before long, they arrived over their target city.

The city is called Fishing Port.

It consists of a huge aircraft carrier docked at the seaside and a settlement on the shore.

During the apocalyptic war, this aircraft carrier, carrying many people and civilization, hid at sea and avoided the war.

Once the war is over, we will dock at the shore and develop at the fastest speed.

Therefore, this city is one of the few relatively developed and civilized cities in the post-apocalyptic world.

These earliest developed civilized cities then united to form an organization called the Red Alliance... But let's leave that aside for now.

After getting off the plane, Ji Xian had a different feeling.

The air here seems to be better.

After all, being close to the sea means the wind blowing in from the ocean isn't as polluted, giving people a refreshing feeling.

While ordering people to move supplies, Jemoka said to Ji Xian, "Mr. Ji Xian, you can go to the city first and take a look. Contact me if you need anything."

Ji Xian knew what Jemoka meant.

After moving so many supplies, he naturally needed to find buyers or sales channels, and this was where he made his profit from the price difference.

Therefore, it is necessary to divert Ji Xian's attention.

Ji Xian smiled and led Xia Luoxue to a random street.

The level of prosperity here is incomparable to that of City 1062.

This street sells clothes, pants, shoes, socks, bags, and all kinds of daily necessities.

At first glance, it looks a bit like a small street in the real world.

Except for the fact that they don't sell snacks or treats.

The only food they sell is nutritional supplements.

Ji Xian walked down the street, looking around with curiosity.

Just as he turned the corner, he saw a shop that surprised him.

In a dimly lit alleyway beside the street, a neon sign was flashing.

The signboard reads in large characters: "Hero's Tavern".

At first glance, Ji Xian thought he was seeing things.

How can there be a tavern in this world?

How can there be wine when there's no grain?

Ji Xian immediately walked over.

The tavern wasn't big, about the same size as taverns in the real world.

As soon as Ji Xian entered, he saw a few customers sitting in twos and threes, each with a glass of wine of different colors in front of them.

From the moment Ji Xian entered, everyone's eyes were focused on Ji Xian and Xia Luoxue.

Despite it being a tavern, their interest in the drinks in their hands was far less than their interest in the two strangers.

Ji Xian ignored all of that and walked straight to the bar.

A woman with very little clothing and heavy makeup was sitting next to the bar.

The woman's eyes were also fixed on Ji Xian, her gaze filled with intense interest.

Ji Xian stood in front of the bar, looking at the various bottles of colorful liquids piled up on the shelf behind the bar, feeling completely bewildered.

I had my doubts: was it safe to drink these?

The bartender behind the counter asked, "What would you like to drink? Just tell me the name, and I can mix a drink that tastes the same."

Wow, they can really drink!

Just as Ji Xian was sighing inwardly, the woman next to the bar leaned over and said, "Handsome young man, is this your first time at a bar?"

Xia Luoxue looked at the woman warily.

Ji Xian gave an awkward laugh: "Is it that obvious?"

The woman said, "Yes, people who come to the tavern for the first time always have that incredulous look on their faces."
