Chapter 41 Closing the Deal (Asking for Recommendations, Asking for Collections)
"Long time no see! Ingredients! Mo Qingyan hugged Chen Xin directly, holding him with both arms and unwilling to let go, the expression on her face was unconcealable excitement: "It's great that you're okay!" I'm going crazy this month underground, and I can't contact you in this situation outside, which makes me almost worried to death! I'm relieved to see you're okay! ”
"How many times have you said it, don't call me ingredients." Chen Xin looked at the excited Mo Qingyan, smiled for a moment, and then signaled her to let go of herself, and said with emotion: "I've had enough time this month, I haven't received any news from the outside world for a whole month, and I almost ran out of water, so it's hard to say." ”
Having said this, Chen Xin also greeted Mo Qingyan's sister and best friend on the side: "Long time no see, little sister Xin, little ding." ”
"Don't let others call you ingredients, you don't call me Xin Xiaomei every time! How many times have I said it, my name is Mo Qingxin! Mo Qingyan's sister was obviously a little unhappy with Chen Xin's name for her, of course, this was just a daily quarrel between friends, and there was no sense of anger, she even had a smile in the corner of her eyes.
As for Mo Qingyan's best friend on the side, she was taking off the arrows on the crossbow and letting go of the bowstring to avoid accidents caused by accidental touch.
After putting away the crossbow, she greeted Chen Xin with a little surprise: "Writer, haven't you stored a lot of fresh water?" Why is there still a lack of water. ”
Before entering the shelter, Chen Xin had stored a large amount of bottled drinking water and tap water in pure buckets, and it was precisely because of this that Mo Qingyan felt strange to Chen Xin that he was almost short of water.
"You also said that those are drinking water, they are used to drink, and I can't take the drinking water to take the bath, wash clothes, and water vegetables, right?" Chen Xin couldn't help but shake his head when he said this, if there was no system, it would be really difficult for him to solve this problem: "But fortunately, the problem is solved, otherwise I would have to exchange fresh vegetables with you for fresh water now." ”
Speaking of this, Chen Xin also opened the trunk of his car, patted two plastic boxes full of fresh vegetables, looked at Mo Qingyan and said with a smile: "Here are four hundred catties of fresh vegetables, Long Niang, if you put them in the refrigerator, it will be enough for you to eat for a month." ”
Hearing Chen Xin say this, Mo Qingyan and her two companions immediately surrounded her, looked at the two large plastic boxes in Chen Xin's trunk, and secretly swallowed their saliva.
Although girls often say that eating vegetables is like eating grass, and that they can't eat it, as long as they are normal human beings, it is impossible not to eat vegetables.
It doesn't matter for a few days or even a week, because in modern society, people can get enough nutrients from a variety of other rich foods, but long-term absences from vegetables will inevitably lead to malnutrition.
But for the three of Mo Qingyan, who were trapped in a shelter in the last days, although the food reserves were quite sufficient throughout the month, and although the taste was not very good, they could still eat canned meat and canned luncheon meat, but there were no fresh vegetables and fruits, and they were very uncomfortable.
Now seeing two large boxes of fresh vegetables in front of them, the three young girls felt that they might just need to wash them and nibble on them raw.
Swallowing her saliva, Mo Qingyan turned her eyes away from the two boxes of tempting fresh vegetables, looked at Chen Xin on the side, and asked him, "Ah Xin, what do you want to change?" ”
Although she usually has a good relationship with Chen Xin, Mo Qingyan does not have any idea of prostitution, and even in order to show her solemnity, she even changed her name for Chen Xin.
In this post-apocalyptic era, the original morality and law can no longer restrain human beings who want to live, Mo Qingyan, who has watched too many foreign apocalyptic film and television works when she was studying in the United States, deeply understands this truth.
Under the end of the world, no matter how good the relationship is, it will not stand the test.
Therefore, she would prefer to exchange the 400 catties of fresh vegetables from Chen Xin's hands, rather than relying on her past connections to ask for them.
What's more, you can ask for it this time, but if you have a bad relationship with Chen Xin, the price you need to pay for getting fresh vegetables next time is not as simple as an equivalent exchange.
In this apocalyptic environment, the exchange of interests has become more direct and explicit, and the past relationships and feelings can only be exchanged for some preferential treatment.
In the apocalyptic world, only unity and cooperation can allow everyone to live together, Mo Qingyan deeply understands this truth.
Chen Xin was also very satisfied with Mo Qingyan's attitude, nodded and said, "Didn't you say it just now?" Canned meat and wine, even better if you had petrol or a refrigerator. ”
"I have a lot of canned meat, both luncheon meat and canned real meat, and enough wine, how much do you want?" Regarding Chen Xin's exchange conditions, Mo Qingyan agreed without a little stumbling, and as for gasoline or refrigerator, she did not directly refuse: "I don't have a lot of gasoline in stock, if you don't want much, I can share a little bit with you, if you want a refrigerator, I have a large freezer for ice drinks in the bar upstairs, you can drag it away." ”
"If you have canned meat, you need two boxes of luncheon meat or one case of canned real meat, and if you want wine, you need one case, that's fine, right?" Chen Xin looked at Mo Qingyan, thought for a moment and said what exchange ratio he could accept.
Hearing Chen Xin's exchange ratio, Mo Qingyan thought for a while and nodded, there was no bargaining, this exchange ratio was acceptable to her.
"In this case, I'll give you a box of canned luncheon meat and a box of canned pork, plus a box of golden rum in exchange for two hundred catties of vegetables, but the canned pork is the kind of small cans of 200g, no problem, right?" Mo Qingyan looked at Chen Xin and took out her exchange chips.
Chen Xin nodded, said that there was no problem, and directly moved a box of vegetables.
"You guys find something to put it in, I'm going to bring this box back." Chen Xin opened the box, and the smell of fresh vegetables emanated, making the eyes of the three girls brighter, and the sound of swallowing saliva was also very obvious.
Mo Qingyan nodded, looked at her sister, and said to her, "Xiaoxin, you go and bring the canned food, and bring a plastic box by the way." ”
After speaking, Mo Qingyan looked at her best friend on the side again: "A-Ning, go upstairs and move a box of golden rums down." ”
"I see, where's the cellar key?" Ding Ning looked at Mo Qingyan and reached out to her to ask for the key to the wine cellar.
Mo Qingyan tore off the keychain from her belt and threw it to Ding Ning.
After doing all this, Mo Qingyan turned his head to look at Chen Xin and invited him: "Ah Xin, you are not in a hurry, right?" Let's talk? ”
"I also want to know about the current situation in the city." Chen Xin nodded and accepted Mo Qingyan's invitation.
