Li Tao stood aside.
He clearly understood every single word, but when put together, he couldn't understand the entire sentence.
He looked at the most conspicuous place in the room. It was a large exchange list with many items available for exchange.
Most of them were food.
Canned beef, canned pork, canned fruits, canned vegetables …
Chocolate, spicy sticks, biscuits …
Even fresh fruits and vegetables, chicken, duck, goose, fish, pork, beef, and mutton were available. Li Tao also looked at the price on the list. He didn't know the contribution point standard, but there were spirit stones exchange prices. He looked at it and felt it wasn't expensive.
"You can exchange these things? There are so many kinds of food, you can open a supermarket! "
"Of course not. Otherwise, why would they be here?" Peng Bo felt this person was too ignorant and always making a fuss. He looked at the staff at the exchange office and thought for a moment, "I want to exchange a box of Snickers, two bottles of Red Bull, a pack of Qiaqia sunflower seeds, and a bag of Lay Shi chips … seems like I chose a bit too much."
Peng Bo's face was bitter, "Xiao Chen, can you give me a discount?"
The clerk with the surname Chen looked at Peng Bo's ferocious face and smiled bitterly, "Brother Peng, don't joke around. Everything here has to be registered. If anything goes wrong, I will be held accountable."
Peng Bo also knew this truth. He was greedy, so he reluctantly removed some of the choices.
Lu Xiaopeng showed a contemptuous face, "You want to exchange for training camp time? Impossible."
The staff took out a special small book and recorded the contribution points changes. It was purely manual recording, which was more troublesome.
Fortunately, there weren't many people in the shelter. Only the patrol members and a few other grassroots managers had contribution points.
Tang Yu also knew this method was not good. It was too primitive, not only troublesome, but also prone to problems. However, the territory had no network and no programmers. It was a bit difficult to get a high-tech exchange method.
Xiao Chen recorded the change of Peng Bo's contribution points and opened the drawer.
In front of him was a desk with cabinets on both sides with many drawers.
He opened the drawer according to the category of items, took out the items Peng Bo exchanged and handed them over.
Li Tao stood on the side and saw it clearly.
These drawers were clearly filled with food!
He also saw a freezer not far away. It was still electrified. Could it be filled with fresh meat?
Lu Xiaopeng patted him on the shoulder. "I told you to stay calm. Don't look like your eyeballs are going to pop out."
Li Tao looked at him, not knowing what to say.
Lu Xiaopeng pointed at the exchange list. "Hey, you guys are from that creek, creek something shelter, right?"
"Stream Tree."
"Yes, Creekwood Shelter. So, let me give you a suggestion. Don't be like Fatty Peng and trade for useless snacks. If you want to trade, trade for equipment. That's the most valuable thing."
Li Tao looked at the equipment list.
Compared to the variety of food, there weren't many items on the equipment list.
Standard Long Sword (Normal): 15 contribution points/30 Origin Crystals.
Standard Longsword (Enhanced Type 1): 30 Contribution Points.
Standard Longsword (Enhanced Type 2): 50 Contribution Points.
Standard Combat Suit (Normal): 15 contribution points/30 Origin Crystals
…
Li Tao stared blankly at the equipment and the price tag.
If the food just now gave him the feeling that it was cheap, then these equipment were ridiculously expensive.
These weapons and equipment were probably the ones worn by the Tree Shade hunters. He admitted that they looked good, but it was impossible to reach the price of dozens of spirit stones.
Lu Xiaopeng saw through his suspicion and pulled Li Tao outside.
He saw a survivor pushing a cart of waste. He called him over and picked up a piece of abandoned steel bar. "Watch carefully." He held the steel bar in one hand and the long sword in the other. With a swish, a cold light flashed. The steel bar was broken into two pieces and fell to the ground with a clang.
"It seems a bit insufficient."
Lu Xiaopeng placed the two pieces of steel bar side by side and swung it again. The steel bar broke into four pieces.
"Again."
He continued to place them together, this time on the ground.
Swish!
Swish!
He was addicted to swinging.
Li Tao's eyes widened.
He was a hunter. He had fought against demonic beasts. Naturally, he knew what the biggest difficulty was.
Those cold weapons before the doomsday weren't easy to use against demonic beasts.
A seemingly good blade would be worn out after a few battles.
This was just a small problem. The most important problem was that when fighting against demonic beasts, it took a lot of effort to leave a deep wound on the demonic beast.
If it had been a sharp weapon, it would have been impossible.
Li Tao could imagine.
Originally, it took a lot of effort to break the skin and fur. But with a sharp weapon, it could easily cut it. It didn't take too much effort to kill the demonic beast.
It would be safer to save energy during the battle.
In an instant, he thought of all the benefits of owning such a sharp weapon.
Back in the exchange office room.
Li Tao looked at the exchange list even more carefully, "Why are there some equipment that can only be exchanged for contribution points and not spirit stones?"
"Ah, probably because … I forgot?" Lu Xiaopeng thought hard.
Chen Haiping finished the work at hand and walked in, "It's only marked with contribution points because those things aren't for sale. Only internal personnel can exchange with contribution points. Similarly, it's cheaper to exchange for materials with contribution points. Our internal personnel can get a contribution point reward for one unit of spirit stones."
"How about it? Are you interested in joining our shelter's patrol team?"
He was also poaching a corner of the wall.
Li Tao felt bitter in his heart.
When he first saw the situation of the Tree Shade Shelter, he wanted to poach some hunters from here. But now he was the one being poached?
He really envied the hunters here, but he still clung to the last bit of moral integrity. He didn't forget the purpose of his trip.
Li Tao said, "Then I'll buy an ordinary standard long sword first."
He rummaged through his inventory and found more than 20 spirit stones, "There are a few spirit stones from a double awakening demonic beast. It should be enough."
Chen Haiping took it and looked at it, "Enough. The standard long sword isn't here. Wait a minute."
Soon, Chen Haiping brought a standard long sword. Li Tao tried it a few times, and it was really easy to use. Even if he spent all his spirit stones, he felt it was worth it.
Beside him, his teammates were even more envious.
They also wanted such a long sword. But when they looked at the price, they were desperate.
"Oh, by the way, if you join our patrol team, you can receive a set of equipment for free, including an ordinary long sword, ordinary combat uniform, rifles, pistols, and other equipment." Chen Haiping suddenly thought of something and said, "Of course, our shelter will sell these equipment for a long time. There may be more in the future. If you want to buy more, remember to bring enough spirit stones."
The others were even more envious.
If it weren't for their moral integrity supporting them, they might have switched camps.
Li Tao felt he couldn't stay any longer.
Otherwise, he was afraid he wouldn't be able to hold his moral integrity anymore.
This time, coming to the Tree Shade Shelter, there were a lot of accidents. But in the end, he achieved his goal, even if he didn't exchange the things he brought.
He looked at the long sword in his hand and felt it was worth it.
"Then, everyone from the Tree Shade Shelter, we'll take our leave now. I'll talk to our leader about the things here when I get back. Maybe we'll come again next time."
