Everyone had already been busy for a day. Their stomachs were already a bit hungry, so they went downstairs and walked outside.
Not long after going downstairs, they could see a large cauldron in an open space not far away. Several workers were there distributing relief meals.
Dozens of people lined up in a long line waiting to receive the relief meals.
A fat man held a spoon. Each person who passed by would get a spoonful of porridge from the cauldron and pour it into their bowl.
Da Gouzi walked over to take a look. He saw that the people's bowls didn't have many grains of porridge. It was basically all water. He couldn't help but complain: "Damn, is this something people eat? How come it's all water! "
In Always Bright Village, Da Gouzi could eat rice every day. Even in Always Bright Village, they wouldn't put so little porridge.
The fat man distributing the porridge looked at Da Gouzi. He rolled his eyes and ridiculed: "If you don't want to eat then scram! Wait until you starve for a few days, then you'll be well-behaved. "
The rest of the survivors received the watery porridge and drank it all. They even licked the bowl clean. Then their eyes greedily looked at the large cauldron of porridge.
This relief meal was equivalent to rice soup. It wasn't porridge at all. But this was the hope that the survivors relied on to survive.
Chen Zhiguang apologized to Yue: "Brother Yue, I'm sorry. You can only receive the relief meal here."
Yue looked at the large cauldron with few grains of rice. He didn't have the slightest interest. He asked Chen Zhiguang: "Is there a market here? I'm going to the market to buy some things. "
Chen Zhiguang immediately said: "Yes! Please follow me. "
Yue's party walked through the Long Hai City survivor base. He saw that the survivors all had emaciated faces. They were clearly starving. There were many places on the street where there was a long line of people waiting to receive the porridge.
Under Chen Zhiguang's lead, Yue arrived at a street.
In that street, there were all kinds of things, and the complexions of the stall owners were only slightly better than the survivors living in the city village.
"That's the rice shop. You can exchange government food stamps for rice there. The salaries of government employees were all paid with food stamps. The army is the same. " Chen Zhiguang pointed to a shop at the end of the street that was guarded by four armed soldiers.
"This is Phoenix Street, a place that sells all kinds of groceries. As long as you have food and food stamps, you can buy a lot of things here. "Chen Zhiguang also pointed to the street and introduced.
Yue Zhong listened to Chen Zhiguang's explanation, and led the crowd into the street.
"Boss, how much are these pots and pans?" Coming to a grocery store, Yue looked at the floor full of pots and pans and asked the boss.
When the owner of the store saw Yue Zhong, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said: "1 grain ticket for 1 pot, 1 grain ticket for 20 bowls, 1 grain ticket for 1 kitchen knife, 1 grain ticket for 1 grain ticket for 3 iron basins. Or you can use other foods to exchange for them. "
Chen Zhiguang pulled Yue Zhong, coldly smiled and said: "Boss, you are too much. The price was too high. Let's go, brother Yue, we'll go to the next house. "
Yue Zhong then made to leave, and the owner became anxious, as he shouted: "Don't go!! Don't go! A little cheaper would do. A little cheaper would do!! "
Yue Zhong pointed to the floor one by one, pointing to a complete set of pots and pans, and said: "5 bags of instant noodles, we want all of them. Otherwise you can keep them for yourself. "
The owner of the grocery store gritted his teeth, and agreed: "Deal!"
Food was very scarce in Qing Yuan County right now. These pots and pans were of very low value, and very few people bought them. 5 bags of instant noodles was enough for the owner of the grocery store to eat a full meal.
Yue Zhong waved his hand, and Da Gouzi pulled out 5 bags of instant noodles and gave them to the owner of the grocery store. Lin Jun brought some people to pick up the pots and pans.
"Boss!! I have good stuff here!! Come buy it from me! "
"Boss, come take a look!"
Seeing Yue Zhong shopping so generously, the surrounding vendors enthusiastically invited him.
"Captain Yue! There are tools for repairing cars! " The maintenance worker Chen Da Lei walked in front of a stall, looking at the tools on the stall, his eyes lit up, and said to Yue Zhong.
Chen Da Lei was a skilled vehicle maintenance worker, but in order to lighten the load during the escape, he threw away all his food. Seeing the tools on the stall, he couldn't help but ask. He was very clear that if he wanted to have a foothold in Yue Zhong's team, he had to display his ability and usefulness so that he wouldn't be abandoned.
With Yue Zhong's approval, Chen Da Lei went to the stall that sold the tools, and spent 4 bags of instant noodles to buy the tools.
"Boss! Come buy it here, I'll give you a discount!! "
Seeing Yue Zhong's generosity, the vendors became even more enthusiastic.
Right now in Long Hai City, the most scarce thing was food. On this street, there weren't many people. After all, the most important thing right now was to fill their stomachs. Very few people would use their precious food to buy groceries.
Long Hai City was different from Always Bright Village. There were all kinds of tools here. Many of the tools weren't available in Always Bright Village. Yue Zhong's party bought a lot of tools along the way, preparing to bring them back to Always Bright Village.
While Yue Zhong's party was walking, a pretty girl wearing super short jeans and a yellowish white t-shirt, brimming with youthfulness, rushed up to Yue Zhong and pleaded: "Big brother! Do you want to play with me? I used to be a high school girl. Play with me for one night, give me a bag of instant noodles. I haven't eaten enough for a week, I'm begging you, play with me! I'm hungry!!!! "
Looking at the pretty girl, clearly less than 20 years old, Yue Zhong's eyes flashed with a complicated light. He didn't think he would see such a scene in Long Hai City, a survivor camp under the government's rule.
Guo Yu and Lu Wen looked at the girl, their eyes filled with sympathy and rejoicing. They sympathized with the girl's experience, but also rejoiced that they met Yue Zhong. Otherwise, they didn't know if they would sell themselves out because of hunger.
Chen Zhiguang looked at the girl blocking the road, turned his head to Yue Zhong and said: "Big brother Yue, ignore her! To play with this kind of trash, you don't need a bag of instant noodles. A bag of instant noodles is enough for a 3P, and it's all high school girls from before Z-Age. If you want to play, I'll take you to find a place. "
"Big brother! I'm willing to do anything! Play with me however you want! I'm begging you, play with me! "The high school girl knelt in front of Yue Zhong and begged.
Yue Zhong didn't look at the high school girl, and directly took a detour.
When Yue Zhong passed by, the high school girl felt something bump into her crotch. She immediately reached out and felt a hardtack. She tightly grabbed the hardtack and looked at Yue Zhong's back from afar. Seeing Guo Yu and Lu Wen at Yue Zhong's side, her eyes flashed with envy. Then she walked into a small alley, secretly crying while eating the hardtack.
