My Doomsday Territory (My Apocalypse Domain)

Chapter 54 News from the Black Market

Li Xiuming, a college classmate.

The relationship between the two is good. After all, they passed the night together, passed the exam, and ate chicken. They can be called the "three irons" of friendship.

However, Tang Yu almost didn't recognize it. In my memory, Xiao Ming was a very polite person, and his hair was much longer than now, but now, the whole person gave him a clean and neat feeling.

It was as if the two hadn't seen each other in years.

But in fact, not long before the apocalypse broke out, the two still met at school, but they had just experienced the life and death of the apocalypse. Seeing the familiar faces again, Tang Yu couldn't help recalling the campus full of youth and books before the apocalypse.

"Let's go, let's see what you look like, you just came to Lindong, and I'll catch the wind and wash the dust for you."

When Li Xiuming saw Tang Yu holding a guide given by the guide in his hand, he couldn't help but drag Tang Yu into a restaurant on the street.

On both sides of this main road, there are a few shops, not too many, and the types are quite complete.

Restaurants, clothing stores, daily necessities stores, bars, etc., there were some before the end of the world, and there are also now, which shows the prosperity of Lindong.

There are also some shops that are more apocalyptic, such as shops selling homemade guns, shops selling materials for demonized beasts, and there are also pre-apocalyptic martial arts masters who opened martial arts halls in the shelter. It is said that the business is very hot.

…………

The two chose a seat by the window, and Li Xiuming handed the menu to Tang Yu, "Come, Lao Tang, take a look at this menu, this is something you can't eat outside, so don't be polite to me."

Tang Yu looked at the menu and saw that they were all very common home-cooked dishes before the end of the world, such as braised eggplant, spicy shredded potatoes, home-style tofu, etc. These are indeed quite luxurious in the end of the world, and many small shelters simply eat them Without such dishes, only Lindong County has a complete range of ingredients to afford so many home-cooked dishes.

Of course, the price is not cheap. Tang Yu pointed out a few items at will, and the waiter on the side calculated a little and said, "A total of 20 yuan, thank you."

Seemingly seeing the doubts in his eyes, Li Xiuming explained with a smile, "Twenty yuan is the price of twenty catties of grain, and now the general currency of the shelter is food stamps, which have a face value of one catty, two catties, five catties, and ten catties. The jins are not the same as the food stamps decades ago. Instead, they are more like the pre-apocalyptic currency. The difference is that the food stamps can be directly exchanged for food. Of course, the face value of a jins of food stamps can only be exchanged. A pound of the most common grain."

"Also, these restaurants now pay first and then serve the food. In the past, some people ate the Bawang meal, and it was useless to catch them. They had no money to pay at all. It's all paid up front."

Li Xiuming found two crumpled food stamps with a face value of ten pounds from his pocket, and was about to hand them to the waiter.

Seeing this, Tang Yu shook his head. Although Xiao Ming was very forthright, he could still see the slightest pain in the eyes of the other party.

He understood that Li Xiuming was just an ordinary person after all. In this environment, he may be better than the average survivor, but not much better.

These two food stamps with a face value of ten kilograms are likely to be saved by Li Xiuming after accumulating a lot. They are enough for ordinary survivors to survive for a month. Tang Yu has no reason to let Li Xiuming spend so much money.

"I'll pay."

He took out a source crystal and handed it to the waiter.

Li Xiuming wanted to speak, but when he saw the source crystal, his face was complicated, "Okay, you can actually take out the source crystal, you are an awakened person, hey, it's a pity that I am the first awakening headband, or the later awakening. Medicine, no matter how hard you try, you can't wake up."

Tang Yu didn't know how to speak.

In the last days, everyone wants to be an awakened person. Even if they don’t go out into the wild, they will have an advantage over ordinary people in terms of work after becoming an awakened person. Who doesn’t want to be an awakened person?

From his point of view, he is not qualified to persuade.

On the contrary, Li Xiuming smiled for a moment, "Forget it, I don't care anymore, anyway, I at least have a regular job, and my life is much better than that of ordinary survivors. Compared with those people, I am at least lucky. ."

"It's you, you can't waste the talent of the Awakened. If you have savings, it's best to go to the official store to buy some equipment, such as firearms, such as the military's special alloy sword. I heard from the Awakened that it is very easy to use."

Tang Yu nodded.

Li Xiuming is very reasonable, and he can see that he is sincerely giving advice to himself. However, these are only applicable to ordinary awakened people, but he has already exceeded this level. What's more, no matter how good the military's alloy swords are, they can Is it better than the one produced by his workshop?

Of course Tang Yu didn't say these words. After thinking about it, he asked, "Then do you know about the black market? It is said that there are many good things in the black market?"

"black market?"

Li Xiuming thought for a while, "I don't know much about the black market. It is said that the black market was originally just a place for a few awakened people to trade some invisible items, but gradually, the black market grew and became a small market. It's like the commodity trading market in the eastern area of ​​the shelter, except that most of the items traded on the black market can be used by the Awakened, including items and equipment, some wild trophies, and it is said that sometimes some items banned by the military flow out."

Tang Yu's eyes lit up. The military banned the sale of items, which means that it is entirely possible for the soul power container to be bought on the black market.

"Do you know where the black market is?"

Li Xiuming frowned, "The black market, I have only heard of a hidden place in the shelter, but I don't know the exact location. However, I heard someone say it before... In this way, I will ask you at work tomorrow."

Tang Yu ordered two bottles of beer, and during the chat, the two of them each talked about some post-apocalyptic experiences.

Li Xiuming did not encounter any danger after the end of the world. When the end of the world broke out, he happened to be working in Lindong County, which happened to be selected by the military as a shelter. Work was bad before the apocalypse, but now it is the envy of most survivors.

Fixed positions, which are very few in shelters, fixed wages, enough to eat every day, and maybe some savings, not only that, compared to the official relief houses allocated to ordinary survivors, fixed-position employees The shelter is much better than these relief houses.

"Don't you know that when the shelter was first established, gunshots could be heard every day. At that time, it was really scary. It was you who were so powerful that you could survive in such an environment, and still live so nourishing." He sighed, "The other students don't know how, I have met the school committee, 503 and two other people who work in Lindong like me, the others just happened to meet you, Lao Tang today, and I don't think so. Know how many people made it to the shelter alive."

Living is a very heavy topic.

Survivors come to the shelter every day, but many more people actually die on the road.

Of course, most of his college classmates were in the Lincheng area when the apocalypse happened. The people who came to the Lindong Shelter alive were not necessarily the few Li Xiuming had seen, but there were hundreds of thousands of survivors in the shelter. At a time when life is so difficult and there is a lack of contact information, it is clear that no one is spared the effort to find other people.

After all, except for a few old friends with deep friendship, even if there is no end of the world, if we meet again in a few years, it is not a stranger.

"Forget about these frustrating words, Lao Tang, you just came to the shelter today, and you haven't found a place yet. If you don't want to live in those relief houses, then you have to go to the housing management center to choose a room."
