Chapter 180 Don’t Buy, Don’t Touch (13)
Lao Gao and Huang Jinghe smiled at each other. "We guessed that you must want to go there for a stroll, but let's go eat first. Let's take a look at the cafeteria on the second floor first, and then go to the cafeteria on the third floor to compare and see what to eat."
The four of them went straight to the cafeteria, and it was lunchtime. They felt that there were a lot of people here before they even arrived. Sure enough, when they officially entered the cafeteria, two-thirds of the huge seats were already filled, and the remaining one-third would be filled up in a short while. Moreover, almost everyone was eating with relish.
The four of them sniffed the fragrance in the air and felt a little hungry.
At the entrance of the cafeteria on the second floor, Lan Jin pointed to the LED window screen not far away. The screen showed three sets of meals, namely A, B, and C. These three sets all included one meat and one vegetable. Dishes could only be selected from the set, but for staple food, you could go to that window and choose any of them. It had rice, flour, and steamed buns, which satisfied everyone's taste, and the price was the same, 5 contribution points per serving.
These three sets of meals are sold at the corresponding windows A, B and C in the cafeteria respectively. But before you line up, there is another window at the door for payment. After you swipe your contribution points, the machine will automatically spit out a ticket, and you can go and get your meal with this ticket. I have to say that in the apocalypse, only the official base can achieve this standard.
The atmosphere and fragrance on the second floor had already captured their attention, and they had no intention of going to the third floor at all. They quickly lined up to buy tickets.
However, while waiting in line, Lan Jin noticed something: it seemed like everyone brought their own cutlery when they came to eat. She couldn't help but worry, "We didn't bring anything. How can we eat without bowls?"
"Sure, there's a place to borrow tableware next to your set meal ticket, but you need to wash them before returning them." A young girl in front of her replied, "There's a sink over there. They wash the dishes there. Once you've washed them, just put them next to the plate area. The staff will take them back and clean and disinfect them again."
After the girl finished speaking, she paid the money and turned away without even giving them a chance to thank her.
After buying the tickets and getting the tableware, the four of them immediately lined up to get their meals. Although the line was long, it was actually their turn very quickly.
Qianqian took a bite and had to admit that it tasted quite good. "It's OK. It's really good that the big pot rice can be made like this."
The taste is okay, and the portion is good too. After all, it only costs 5 contribution points, which is 3 contribution points cheaper than the original 8 contribution points in the community. I'm afraid these 3 contribution points can buy a whole breakfast in the base.
Here, almost everyone who was eating was wolfing down their food, causing them to speed up their eating as well.
After eating, he washed the dishes, put down the cutlery and left immediately. His movements were smooth and fluid, for fear that if he was a step slower, the people behind him would not have a seat.
When the four of them left the cafeteria, they unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
"Actually, no one's rushing us, and there's still room. We can obviously eat slower, so why do we have to eat so fast?"
Ling Jiang smiled and said, "Who knows? I guess I was infected by this atmosphere."
Lao Gao patted his stomach and said, "The food here is quite good. It's just enough to fill me up, but at least I'm not starving."
Although it can fill you up, it’s not very filling for boys.
"Yes, but it only costs 5 contribution points, which I think is about the same." Huang Jinghe felt that the price matched the quantity of the meal, and the price-performance ratio was pretty good.
After dinner, they turned around and went to the shopping mall upstairs.
Speaking of shopping malls, the 4th and 5th floors are actually places for shopping.
There are more daily necessities on the 4th floor. They walked around and found men's clothing, women's clothing, and children's clothing. These clothes are both new and old, and the prices are naturally completely different.
In addition to these, there are also separate counters for daily necessities. The most important thing is that Lan Jin actually saw the same constant temperature clothing as the one she was wearing on one of the counters, but the price... is even more expensive than the price before the apocalypse. She doesn't know if anyone will buy it if it is put here.
Seeing Lan Jin looking at the clothes, Ling Jiang couldn't help but look over as well. He then said, "I don't know if this constant temperature clothing is useful, but it's actually so expensive. You have to be crazy to buy something this expensive."
Lan Jin looked at her expressionlessly and replied, "I bought it. It's very comfortable to wear. It really keeps the temperature constant."
Hearing this, the three of them were stunned. Then they thought that after the extreme cold, Lan Jin seemed to be not as afraid of the cold as they were. Then they thought that Lan Qiaoqiao was the same. Lao Gao asked, "Sister Lan, is this dress the same as the one you bought?"
"It's exactly the same, even the brand is the same, but the price is a little more expensive."
The main thing is that this constant temperature clothing is really high-tech, similar to autumn clothes and autumn trousers. It is light and warm when worn. The key is that it is very effective, so the high price is acceptable, but it is so expensive...
Lao Gao couldn't help but ask, "Sister Lan, how much did you pay for this outfit?"
After Lan Jin reported a number, he successfully silenced the three people around him. How should I put it? I knew that the other party was rich, but I didn't know that he was willing to spend so much. But when I thought about the space full of supplies, it didn't seem very strange that he was willing to buy this.
Lan Jin also said, "I also bought the matching constant temperature fabric and made it specifically for Qiao Qiao. Children grow taller, and it's difficult to modify the finished product."
But let's not talk about the past. Even if they had the money, they wouldn't want to spend it on this. Lao Gao sighed, "Just let me freeze. Actually, this down jacket Sister Lan gave me is pretty good. I'm not cold even wearing it."
The down jacket that Lan Jin gave to Lao Gao uses electricity to heat it. When you need to use it, just plug in a pre-charged power bank and it will heat up. When you don't need it to heat up, just turn off the switch. In short, it is very convenient. However, no matter the effect or other aspects, it is not as good as the high-tech self-heating autumn clothes.
But no matter how good it is, it is definitely worth it.
After leaving this place, they found a thermostatic suit being sold on another counter not far away. It was many times cheaper than the one Lan Jin was wearing, and it immediately caught their attention.
However, judging from the appearance, it cannot be worn as a base layer or as an outer layer, and the fabric is a bit stiff. If it could really maintain a constant temperature, it would barely be worth its price.
Just as Lan Jin was about to touch it, the salesperson next to her came over and scolded her, "Don't touch it if you don't want to buy it. Can you afford to pay for it if it breaks?"
