Chapter 502: This Damn Last Days (8)
Anne walked out of the apartment and walked alone to the trading area in the inner ring.
It is said to be a trading area, but it is more like a large market in the countryside.
Rows of stalls, densely packed, there are a total of five rows in the entire trade area.
And the so-called stall is not a serious platform, but an individual who casually spreads rags and puts what he wants to sell on it.
Anne walked around in rows and found that there were still a lot of goods in the trading area.
There are electronic products that were very popular before the end of the world, as well as valuables such as jade, jade, gold, etc., as well as various luxury brand-name bags and clothes.
It's just that these things are the least valuable right now.
Especially those electronic products, a bunch of the latest fruit products, may not be able to exchange for a real apple.
Anne took a look, but found that there were several electronic products that were very high-end, and they were black technologies that she had never been exposed to.
Although Anne doesn't know what the world she has "been exposed to" is like, subconsciously, Anne knows that the smart bracelets, holographic projectors, and universal printers she sees in front of her will definitely be used in the future.
It's a pity that she doesn't have any food on hand now, let alone extra crystal nuclei, otherwise, she would definitely buy them all.
Anne continued to stroll.
There are many stalls in the trading area, and there is a wide variety of goods.
In addition to the luxuries that would be of little use in the last days, Anne saw something more practical.
The flesh and fur of mutated animals, some unknown mutant plants, and the food that humans need most.
Of course, most of the food in the trading area is bagged.
What instant noodles, ham, bread, and what canned food, luncheon meat, vacuum-packed delicatessen...... Basically, it's all past the expiration date.
No way, it's been almost two years since the end of the world, and almost all the things produced before the end of the world have passed their expiration date.
At present, humans are still fighting hard against zombies, and there is no time to resume production.
Besides, those industrial cities have a high population density and are all young and strong people, once they are zombies, they are far more difficult to deal with than the zombies that ordinary people have become.
What if it expires, it is not easy to stutter.
Therefore, those expired foods are still the best-selling goods in the entire trading area, and the prices are extremely high.
Anne asked the price, and then touched the only five crystal nuclei she had, and finally realized what it meant to be "shy in the bag".
Ma Dan, thinking that she is a dignified executor, has been reduced to the point where she can't even afford to eat.
Executor?
Anne's brain ached like pins and needles again, and she hurriedly didn't dare to think about it anymore, and continued to wander around the trading area.
"Huh?
Anne's eyes lit up as she scanned a stall selling mutant plants.
If she didn't admit her mistake, this herb should be Biyuan grass, and a few other herbs can be used to make an antidote pill for all kinds of poisons.
Moreover, this Biyuan grass is a mutant variety in the last days, and its medicinal effect is just right to remove toxins from the body of mutated animals.
Anne didn't think about why she knew Bi Yuancao anymore, damn it, it was too much of a headache.
She didn't want to suffer this again.
Anyway, if you know, you know, so why bother thinking about why.
"Boss, how do you sell these herbs?"
Anne squatted in front of the stall and picked out seven or eight mutated plants, including Biyuan grass.
"A pack of instant noodles, or a loaf of bread. โ
The owner of the stall was a young man in his twenties, who had no special abilities, but exuded a characteristic bookish atmosphere.
Anne was familiar with this temperament and felt that he should be the heir of a family of Chinese medicine.
Anne guessed correctly, this person does know Chinese medicine.
It is precisely because he can use mutant plants to concoct some necessary medicines for human beings that he can survive in the inner circle of the base.
It's just that the medicines placed in his stall are all left over after he dispenses them.
To be honest, he didn't even know what the effects of these mutated plants were.
A pack of instant noodles or something, but he's just shouting the price indiscriminately.
Anne didn't say a word, and stood up directly - is this taking her as the wronged leader?
Seeing this, the stall owner hurriedly laughed and said, "Hey, don't go, these herbs of mine are all picked in the deep mountains south of the base, where the haze is not very serious, so the animals and plants have mutations, but the degree is not deep." There's not a lot of radiation on these mutated plantsโ"
The people who set up the stalls will tell stories, and Anne doesn't believe this, "Two biscuits, if it doesn't work, pull it down." โ
The stall owner knew this was the highest price Anne could give.
He didn't say anything, but nodded, and took the initiative to help Anne wrap up all the herbs.
Anne had already exchanged the luncheon meat for two packets of biscuits, each weighing twenty yuan, and she opened one and traded them one by one.
She changed the herbs and went next door to change a few pieces of mutant cow meat.
Mutated animals have toxins that can kill people if they eat them.
But people who are extremely hungry can even eat Guanyin soil, let alone this kind of mutant meat that tastes good.
As for the possibility of poisoning and death?
It's better to be a full-dead ghost than to be starved to death!
When Anne passed by the stall selling electronic products, she didn't hold back, but still used four biscuits to buy a few things that she thought were black technology.
Anne walked out of the trading area with a large burden on her back, and behind her, there was a pair of thief's eyes.
Anne sensed that someone was following, but she did not take action.
There are only two kinds of people who follow her:
First, he mistakenly thought she was a gangster from a big dog family and tried to rob her.
Second, Zhao Yuchen's people.
She threw such a mess at Zhao Yuchen, and Zhao Yuchen must have gritted his teeth with hatred for her.
New hatred and old hatred, Zhao Yuchen at this moment is determined to be unable to catch her in front of him and rectify it well.
Now that two days have passed, Zhao Yuchen should have settled Zhao Jian's affairs, and then be able to free up time to clean up her as the culprit.
Anne is not afraid, although Zhao Yuchen is powerful, he can't cover the sky in the sun base single-handedly.
And after two days of cultivation, the spiritual power in Anne's dantian has grown a lot.
Relying on these spiritual powers, it would not be difficult for her to draw talismans or something in the void.
At the very least, Anne could be sure that she would be able to leave the base easily.
Anne continued walking, pretending not to know, all the way back to the rented apartment.
Went upstairs, entered the house, closed the door.
When Anne entered, she quietly looked out through the cat's eye on the door.
Sure enough, I saw a sneaky figure, swaying back and forth outside the door, as if confirming the house number.
He waited until he was sure which room Anne had entered before he turned to leave.
Very good, Anne can basically be sure that the person outside must have been sent by Zhao Yuchen.
But that's nothing, Anne is now in the apartment area of the inner circle of the base, which is the safest place in the entire base.
No matter how unscrupulous Zhao Yuchen was, he didn't dare to make a move here.
As long as Anne doesn't walk out of the apartment, Zhao Yuchen can only watch dryly for the time being.
It just so happened that Anne had just bought something interesting and was going to stay in her room for experiments, and she wasn't going to leave the house until the rent was due......
