Chapter 54

"Auntie, you have a good rest today, Brother Xu and I will take you around the base later." Standing in the living room, Yu Nan said to Auntie.

"Hey, hey, okay, you can go out at ease. Jia Jia has me watching, it's okay." The aunt agreed happily.

"Then I'll trouble you, we're going out." Zhan Xuyang said with a smile.

Today was the day when I made an appointment with Cheng Yongzhi to see the weapons. The two of them walked out of the yard and went straight to the gate of the base.The distance from Area D to the North Gate is completely incomparable to before. Fortunately, the two of them walked quickly, and they would arrive in ten, twenty or ten minutes.

"Looking for a chance to get some bicycles, it will be more convenient to wander around the base." Standing next to the electronic calendar, Yu Nan looked up from time to time.

Zhan Xuyang chuckled, "Then you have to remember to lock it, otherwise the kung fu car might disappear when you look back."

"Isn't it?" Yu Nan's mouth twitched.Zhan Xuyang shrugged and spread his hands.

The "Didi" car horn rang twice shortly beside them. Cheng Yongzhi waved to them and lowered the window, "Get in the car. Do you have your ID card?"

"Take it with you." Yu Nan consciously sat in the back and gave Zhan Xuyang to the passenger seat.

After the car drove out of the base, Yu Nan realized that the place where weapons were sold was not actually inside the base.Cheng Yongzhi took them to a rather hidden air-raid shelter. If someone hadn't led them, it would be difficult to find the entrance hidden behind the earthen wall.

The dark red iron door was stained with rust, but it was not locked. "When you get inside, don't rush to pay the bill no matter what you see. If you are in doubt, just tell me." Cheng Yongzhi warned, and stepped forward to knock on the door according to the rule of "three shorts, five longs and one short".

After a while, I heard a hoarse male voice asking, "Who is it?"

"Add food to the cafeteria tonight." Cheng Yongzhi replied.Hearing such a secret signal, Yu Nan was not happy, so he pursed his lips, turned his head to one side and smiled secretly.

There was a sound inside, and the door creaked open, revealing a thin old man standing inside.Cheng Yongzhi didn't speak, nodded to him and walked straight in. Seeing this, Zhan Xuyang hurriedly pulled Yu Nan to follow.

The road to the door is very narrow, and there will be a recessed arched space not far from the walls on both sides. Cheng Yongzhi took out two flashlights from inside and handed one of them to Zhan Xuyang. "There is no light when you go in, and the road is not very good, so be careful where you step." He reminded.

Yu Nan and Zhan Xuyang agreed, and walked inward along the corridor.Not long after, there was a stone step extending downwards, and a few beams of faint light and voices came from below.After going down the stairs and turning a corner, the field of vision immediately widened.There were many figures in front of him, and it could be vaguely seen that there were many things scattered on the ground and on the surrounding shelves in the black shadows, allowing people to pick at will.

At the door, a bearded man in his 50s and [-]s sat behind the table, raised his eyelids, glanced at them, and said to Cheng Yongzhi, "You know our rules."

"Of course." Cheng Yongzhi nodded.

"Go in." The bearded man waved his hand.

Yu Nan and Zhan Xuyang couldn't understand what they were saying, so they obediently followed Cheng Yongzhi and walked in, and then heard him whisper: "Buying here depends entirely on one's own eyesight. Buying profits and losses depends on one's ability. , Never ask for further debts.” He took a few steps forward, picked up a mobile phone on the ground and pointed it out to them, “Everything has a label on it, and it’s up to the buyer whether it’s worth it or not.”

Yu Nan stepped forward and saw that the purpose of the mobile phone and the number of points were simply stated on the label.This mobile phone looks no different from the pre-apocalyptic ones, but it actually uses satellite signals and is priced at 3000 credits.She clicked her tongue, it really is a thing for rich people.

"What if you don't have so many points?" Zhan Xuyang asked in a low voice.

"It can be bartered. Did that bearded man see it just now? As long as he agrees, there will be no problem." Cheng Yongzhi explained patiently.

"Yeah." Yu Nan turned on the light of the flashlight and looked down at the various objects on the ground. There were all kinds of things.Some simply wrote a sentence or two of explanations, while others only marked the price. When she saw something interesting, she picked it up or squatted on the ground to take a look.

Cheng Yongzhi followed them around for a while, seeing the two of them having fun, he walked in another direction.Buying things here is more like shopping for treasures in an antique market, you can’t pick up missing things just by standing and looking.

While they were flipping through the introduction, people came and went one after another.Seeing that one of them looked familiar, Yu Nan thought for a long time before he remembered that this person was Wei Huai who had been on missions with them.Now it's time to call Captain Wei. His mercenary group has expanded extremely rapidly since its establishment, and it is now one of the largest groups in the base.

This person looked extremely well dressed, and he was no different from before the end of the world, but his aura and demeanor were no different from before.Such people are often more sensitive to sight than ordinary people, so Yu Nan glanced twice before looking away.

"What do you think of this knife?" Zhan Xuyang handed over a slightly curved long knife from the side.

Yu Nan took it with her head, barely discerning from the scribbled handwriting that it was a household saber, worth 1000 points.Pulling the knife out of its sheath, I saw that the knife head was flush, three fingers wide, and about 80 cm long. The blade shone with a cool and cold light.After weighing it in her hand and waving it a few times, she nodded to Zhan Xuyang.

"Look at other things." Zhan Xuyang said, turning his head to look at other things.

"Yeah." Yu Nan put the knife back into its sheath and held it tightly in her hand, planning to pay the bill together after the selection.She found a bucket-sized pure water purifier in the corner, much larger than the ones they had seen at the resort.After thinking about it, I discussed with Zhan Xuyang, took note of the location, and went to see other things.

An apple sealed in a vacuum bag is priced at 100 points, a bottle of penicillin sodium for injection is 100 points, a bottle of soilless cultivation nutrient solution is 10 points, a body armor is 50 points, guns, bullets, etc. The price is expensive, and it was only when Yu Nan arrived here that he realized that the 2 points in his family's hands were really nothing.

Fortunately, they didn't need many things. They only chose three long knives, a pure water purifier, and two mobile phones. Even so, they spent a full [-] points.Before going out, Luzhuhu handed them an electronic password card the size of a USB flash drive, saying that it was the proof of entry.At this time, it was showing the "signature" mentioned before entering the door.

Cheng Yongzhi returned empty-handed, as if he came here to accompany them on this trip. "The price is a little bit expensive, but fortunately it's not too outrageous. Since it's needed, it's not a disadvantage."

Yu Nan acknowledged his affection in her heart, so she asked him to come to the house for dinner when he had time.

"That's kind, thank you in advance. I can't do it today, and I have something to do later." Cheng Yongzhi had that blinding simple and honest smile on his face again, which made her twitch. "By the way, Zhanzi, you write down my mobile phone number, then call me here, and call ahead when I go to your house."

Hearing his words, Yu Nan was taken aback for a while, but then thought about it and took it for granted.From the day he met Cheng Yongzhi, he has never concealed his rich nature. It's okay to have a luxury like a mobile phone, it's just that they haven't seen it before.

Zhan Xuyang in the front seat had already dialed the number Cheng Yongzhi said, and after a short ringtone, he saved the number on his phone.

"When you come back in the future, you can enter according to the code on the password card." Cheng Yongzhi said again. "The obvious boss here in the air-raid shelter is the bearded man, nicknamed Beard. He alone decides the business. He can replenish the stock every ten and a half months. If you need anything that he doesn't have, you can also ask him to help. Looking for it, but the price of things found in this way is much higher than usual.”

Along the way, Cheng Yongzhi explained the doorway to the two of them in detail, and sent them back to the base without even entering the door. "I'll go to Huichuan and come back in two or three days."

The Huichuan he said naturally refers to Huichuan City. It was already very dangerous when Zhan Xuyang and Yu Nan went there before, and I don't know what the situation is now. "Be careful all the way, pay attention to safety." There was a trace of worry on Yu Nan's face.

"Yes, don't worry." Cheng Yongzhi smiled, started the car and left.

Yu Nan and the two were carrying things, and they were questioned by the sentry before they let them go.Walking all the way back home at noon, the two of them were already extremely hot.Yu Nan was better, he had protective clothing to adjust the temperature, but Zhan Xuyang's clothes were soaked through.

They went back to their rooms to tidy up, and just after changing their clothes, they heard Jiajia knocking on the door calling them to eat.

Seeing a large pot of porridge and a small dish of pickles on the dining table, Yu Nan showed a dumbfounded expression, and turned into the kitchen in silence.

The aunt thought she was going to get the tableware, so she came in together, "I'll just take it, you go sit down and wait."

"Auntie, take a break first, and I'll cook two more dishes." After hesitating for a while, Yu Nan said.It might be a little hurtful to say this, but since we want to live together, we can't always care about face, let alone this is still in our own home.

"Stir fry? Is this too..."

"Auntie," Yu Nan shook the water off his hand, put the washed celery on the cutting board and cut it into small pieces, "Jiajia is still growing, and eating only porridge won't keep up with her nutrition." Concerned about her aunt's face, She can only use the child as an excuse.

"Alas..." After a while, the auntie sighed, "Xiao Nan, it's not that the auntie is talking about you. This world is not the same as before, and you can no longer eat whatever you want like that. It's good for a while, and you will regret it later." What she said was sincere, and her eyes were full of sincerity.

"...Well, don't worry, auntie. Although our family doesn't have many points, we can still afford simple meals." Yu Nan smiled at her, without stopping for a moment.

"Anyway, as long as you know it in your heart." The aunt stopped talking and walked out of the kitchen slowly.

Feeling a little dull for no reason, Yu Nan fried the celery, added another canned meat, and served the plated dishes on the table. "It's time to eat." Yu Nan sat next to Zhan Xuyang.

Jiang Tao swallowed, clutching the chopsticks tightly in his hands, but didn't do anything, but turned to look at Uncle Jiang.

Seeing this, Zhan Xuyang picked up the chopsticks, "Auntie, Uncle, and Jiang Tao, come and try Xiao Nan's dishes." Yu Nan followed with a few words of politeness, and everyone began to eat.

The meal was very dull, except for Jiang Tao who couldn't help eating meat, the aunt and uncle only moved their chopsticks once or twice, and drank the porridge in silence for the rest of the time.At the end of the meal, Uncle Jiang put down his chopsticks, "Xuyang, your aunt and I plan to go to the service center in the afternoon to see if we can find something to do."

Auntie's words today changed Yu Nan's impression of her, but it didn't reach the point where they could live and eat at home for nothing.When Uncle Jiang said that she was going to find a job, she agreed in her heart, so she didn't say anything.

"I'll go with you." Zhan Xuyang nodded.The service center has been moved to the new building, where many businesses such as household registration and task handover are carried out. It can be said that it is a window for the base to face the public.

"Okay, it happens that there is something we don't understand, and you can explain it to us." The aunt agreed.Jiang Tao's usually dull eyes rolled, and he quickly lowered his head and put two pieces of meat into the bowl.
