"Don't worry, you have to ask someone first, it's best to choose a village where all the young people go out to work, leaving only the old people and children. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoOn the one hand, because the elderly are thrifty, they are reluctant to spend more money on greenhouse vegetables in winter, and their legs and feet are not as dexterous as those of young people, and the food and winter vegetables at home will not be less. On the other hand, there are few survivors in such a village, so we used to mainly deal with zombies, so we don't have to fight with too many people. Zhou Beichen added unhurriedly.

"So who should I ask about this? It is estimated that the people in the base used to live nearby, and it is not easy to find someone who is familiar with the rural situation. Heating is also a big problem, now heating and air conditioning are not to be counted on, even if we can find a stove, we don't know where to get fuel. Qin Qin said with a frown.

"Yes, now there is no computer and no network, it is inconvenient to check anything, we don't have the opportunity to go out every day to go to school here, who knows where to find it." Moreover, I remember that there was a report in the news last year that the city seems to have banned the use and sale of honeycomb coal in order to control air pollution, and now those shops that sell loose coal must be more hidden, even if they don't hide in the surrounding towns, at least there will be no near our university, and it is not necessarily whether there is one in the entire southern suburbs. Yang Lan also thought about the conversation between the two.

"When it comes to inquiring about news, I think of someone." Zhou Beichen glanced at Qin Qin thoughtfully, and continued, "Qinqin, do you remember the day you injured your arm? We rescued three people, and the leader was named Zhang Yongfa, who left me with the impression of a very shrewd and intelligent businessman. This kind of person generally has a wide range of paths, and if we are willing to pay him to inquire, we should be able to get the results quickly. ”

"Well, I remember that this person not only seems to have brains, but also has a special heart, shouting and pulling us to be his back." After Qin Qin heard Zhang Yongfa's name, she thought for a while, and then pouted unhappily.

"Qinqin, don't say that. Now that you know who he is, you just need to be careful when dealing with him, and you still have to use it. Besides, he's not a mad dog, and he won't understand the truth of making money with anger, so it's okay to harm us in a good way. If you don't want to deal with him, then I'll go to him myself and spend money to buy news, what's the danger? Zhou Beichen smiled and patted Qin Qin's arm as a reassurance.

Qin Qin's brows furrowed tightly, but Zhou Beichen's words were not wrong. The situation that day was very critical, and Zhang Yongfa also wanted to pull people into the water in order to survive. Now that he is safely hiding in the base, there is no danger, and there is no reason to attack himself and others again. In any case, it is a life-saving grace, even if he doesn't want to repay the favor, he has to accept this love.

"Then go to him, but you have to be careful not to fall victim to him. Do you know where he lives? Although Qin Qin was reluctant, she finally agreed that Zhou Beichen would go to Zhang Yongfa to inquire about the news.

"How can someone like him not have a good deal with the base? I guess it's clear to go to the management office and ask someone casually, maybe his people are there every day, and it's hard money to buy and sell, and you can't do it without enough well-informed information. In this way, I won't go out today, everyone is free to move around in the base, I will take Su Yi to apply for an identity card, and find Zhang Yongfa by the way. Zhou Beichen said.

"Okay. You can take these crystal nuclei as a deposit. Now this thing is hard currency, not dazzling, businessmen like him have a lot of eyes, I am afraid that he will be suspicious of the payment of materials. Qin Qin took out 50 crystal nuclei and handed them to Zhou Beichen, and then told Su Yi, "Su Yi, I'm sorry for you this time, I'll accompany Beichen to take a look after completing the formalities." You're older than all of us, and you're more experienced in life. I've always felt that Zhang Yongfa is unreliable, but now there is no other way but to pay more attention to ourselves. ”

After Su Yi nodded in response, he went out with Zhou Beichen.

The remaining seven people all chose to stay at home, and now that the weather outside is getting colder and colder, no one wants to wander around the community. Taking advantage of the fact that there was nothing to do today, everyone washed and dried the dirty clothes they had changed. In a short time, the whole apartment was tied with ropes, and clothes were hung on them.

When it was almost noon, Zhou Beichen and Su Yi came back. According to them, that Zhang Yongfa saw the two of them, and called one brother at a time, looking very close on the surface, and after listening to Zhou Beichen's request, he slapped his chest and said that it was no problem.

Zhou Beichen wanted to pay him, he first shirked vigorously, and after the two were polite for a long time, the final result of the discussion was that Zhang Yongfa was only responsible for providing those locations for selling loose coal, but he did not guarantee whether there were goods inside, and each location had 20 crystal nuclei, and he could probably find three or five. He will also help inquire about suitable villages, ensuring that more than half of the young adults who go out to work will be charged 30 crystal nuclei. Both messages are guaranteed to arrive within a week, and the latter may be sooner.

Zhou Beichen was quite satisfied with this result, so he left the 50 crystal nuclei as a deposit. Zhang Yongfa smiled and was not polite, and after handing Zhou Beichen a small stack of printer paper, he sent the two out. Zhou Beichen opened it after going out, and his face was a little strange, but he didn't say anything, and took Su Yi home unhurriedly.

"Let's see, this Zhang Yongfa is really a good means, and he can even get a detailed map of our city and surrounding districts and counties." Zhou Beichen put the stack of papers on the table and spoke.

Su Yi silently spread out the paper on the table, and the others hula-la-la-la-la around to take a closer look. This stack of paper is about ten pages long, and the black and white print is not very clear. The first one is the map of the whole city of Xinle City, followed by a few enlarged detailed maps of the urban area, and the last one is a map of the surrounding counties. The ordering of these maps is a bit confusing, and the range of interceptions is very arbitrary, and it looks more like a high-definition map printed out of the Internet than from a paper version of the map.

"Hey, does this Yongfa have anything to do with the base? If you want to print, you need both equipment and electricity, and now there is no Internet available, so you have to have stored map data in the computer to print. "Lin Ziyao is short, and he needs to kneel on a chair to see the map. The others didn't compete with him when he was young, so he was the first to read the maps.

Zhou Beichen replied with a serious face: "It's not necessarily a base, but it definitely wasn't made by himself." The movement of the generator is so loud that the average person's computer does not have a map of the city in place. Although he may have tried to win us over, or wanted to sell more personal favors to facilitate future dealings, he took the initiative to send the map out. But we all have to carry snacks, Zhang Yongfa is not simple. ”
