Chapter 19: Changing a baby's diaper with bread
Shi Ersao was reluctant to sell these 700 precious little loaves of bread.
But she couldn't persuade Shi Yuebai.
Shi Yuebai has a decisive character. What she says is what she means and she does not allow anyone to refute her.
So the next day, Shi Ersao could only set up a stall in the open space in front of the Shi family's tarpaulin.
"One loaf of bread costs 100 points?"
Some survivors gathered around and watched Shi Yuebai writing on the ground.
"It's so expensive, who would buy it?"
"We really thought that the sick and disabled people in your Shi family had to eat mattresses."
Most people came to watch the fun.
100 points is a sky-high price for them.
If they have the ability and earn so many points, why do they still live outside the city?
All the capable people live in big cities.
"Shi Yuebai, the price of this bread is too high."
There are a few people who are interested and want to lower the price.
"If you bid one or two cents, we can still take care of your business."
Shi Yuebai sat on the flatbed cart and sneered, writing with a thin stick in his hand:
【No bargaining! 】
As soon as the last dot was written, Shi Yuebai raised the long stick in his hand.
With a "bang", it hit the hand of one of the team members.
The survivor who was about to steal a piece of bread while there were many people around, screamed while covering his bloody hand.
“Ahhhh!”
The survivors around immediately blamed Shi Yuebai.
"We are all on the same team, why are you hitting people?"
"Yeah, we're all on the same team. How could you steal something?"
Shi Yuebai rolled his eyes, waved the thin stick in his hand back and forth, and spoke in a sarcastic tone.
Her temper and attitude make people want to beat her up.
But the people in the team thought of the Shi family, who had a good relationship with Yi Zhe, the leader of the mercenary group.
They could only suppress the anger in their hearts.
Shi Ersao felt a little uneasy, and quietly moved behind Shi Yuebai and whispered,
"Yuebai, let's not stir up hatred everywhere."
"What are you afraid of? If one comes, I'll kill him. If two come, I'll kill them both!"
Shi Yuebai has fallen into this state. She doesn't cause trouble, but she is not afraid of it either.
She set up a stall in front of her house to sell bread. If you want to buy, buy it. If you don’t want to, forget it.
I didn't provoke anyone or bother anyone.
What hatred did she cause?
Shi Yuebai's speech was full of domineering power, and he really had the aura of a person who is barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes.
Anyway, the Shi family is already in this state. Life and death are just one life. The worst that can happen is that we die together with others.
Many team survivors who were eager to come up and grab the bread began to retreat instead.
One of the survivors in the team used his brain a little and took out a pack of baby diapers with a smile.
Her eyes were full of calculations, and she deceived Shi Yuebai like a fool.
"Yuebai, I see your mother is going to give birth in the next couple of days. Don't you love picking up junk... those bottles and jars from before the apocalypse?"
"How about I exchange this pack of diapers for a small bun?"
The woman was holding a pack of unopened baby diapers.
There are thirty diapers in a big bag.
Shi Yuebai reached out and took it, looking at the expiration date on the packaging bag. It was already two years past the expiration date.
But this thing is sealed and although it has passed its expiration date, it can still be used.
Shi Yuebai nodded, and the woman happily took away a small bread that was smaller than the palm of her hand.
"It turns out she's a fool too."
Some people in the crowd suddenly understood.
Just now, they saw Shi Yuebai writing and hitting people's hands with long sticks.
I thought Shi Yuebai was a smart person who was not easy to mess with.
As a result, people actually used edible bread to exchange for baby diapers.
Even a fool knows that it's best not to have children in the wasteland.
Who would have thought that at such an old age, Shi's mother would still be pregnant...
My father is still very strong despite his old age.
Just get pregnant and give birth to the baby. There are newborns in the wasteland.
However, children born in the wasteland are far less precious than children born before the apocalypse.
They were all naked and defecated and urinated anywhere.
Born and raised by nature, he grew up without anyone taking care of him.
Using bread to change baby diapers is unprecedented in the wasteland, and no one will follow suit.
Isn’t Shi Yuebai afraid that the child born by Shi’s mother will be another little fool?
But who cares? It’s just right that Shi Yuebai is stupid.
Someone immediately became interested and ran back to their own tarpaulin to take some of their own odds and ends.
Those supplies that cannot be eaten or drunk and can only provide a little convenience in life are the most useless in the wasteland.
No one counts these things.
Survivors earn points to buy food, water, and advanced equipment and weapons.
But Shi Yuebai is a germaphobe.
She didn't want the daily necessities that the survivors in the team brought in to exchange for bread, if they had been opened or used by others.
For example, underwear and bras that have been worn several times are still not washed.
If you give this to Shi Yuebai and want to exchange it for bread, you’re dreaming!
Shi Ersao stood behind Shi Yuebai anxiously, and she carefully persuaded Shi Yuebai,
"No, don't change them all..."
"Leave some for ourselves."
Yi Zhe gave only good things because he was concerned that the women in the Shi family, except Shi Ersao, were unable to act.
So whenever possible, give them food that can be kept for a longer time.
Shi Yuebai didn't listen to Shi Ersao at all. She turned around clumsily and stuffed a large package of unopened sanitary napkins into Shi Ersao's hands.
"Here, if you need it, keep it for yourself."
She pointed out a direction to Shi Ersao.
There was a brand new carved pearwood cabinet.
This cabinet was brought here by the survivors as if it were garbage, and was exchanged for a small loaf of bread from Shi Yuebai.
"Move that cabinet back into our tarpaulin."
"Your period... anything you need during your period is placed in there."
Yaoyao was still young at that time and didn’t need sanitary napkins.
Because Shi Yuebai was so fat, she had already suffered from hormonal disorders and entered menopause at a young age.
As for Shi Mu, she actually stopped having her period a long time ago.
But I don’t know why, it may be the effect of radiation, she is still pregnant at such an old age.
So after all the calculations, the only one in the Shi family who can use sanitary napkins now is Shi Ersao.
"And there are diapers for the baby after it's born."
"Second sister-in-law, you move back too."
As they were talking, the family who had exchanged diapers for bread came back with their whole family.
They may have found a pre-apocalyptic diaper factory in the ruins.
The family disappeared for a while, and then they happily brought back a hundred packs of diapers.
We have sizes N, M, L, S... and of course adult sizes.
All of them are unopened.
It looks like it's been in storage for a long time.
Please help me correct any typos.
