Chapter 8, Black Market
"With the spear technique you taught, it's not so easy to die!"
"Here you go, take it to make soup, when will you remember other spear skills, or when your conscience will hurt, remember to pass it on to me, you childless and daughterless, ready to take it to the soil?"
When Wang Ying heard Old Man Yue's words, he couldn't help laughing, and threw the bag containing bones in his hand over, and at the same time, he didn't forget to let him teach him other marksmanship skills to him as before.
"You kid, you're really a white-eyed wolf, if I didn't teach you the art of stabbing guns, you would have been able to hunt in the wild?"
"It's good now, I just gave me some bones when I got a harvest, and I want to learn my other marksmanship, but there is no door."
Old man Yue picked up the bag and looked at it, and then said dissatisfiedly.
"It's good to have bones to make soup and drink, I don't know how many people want it, you still dislike it, if you dislike it, give it back to me, I'm about to go to the black market, maybe I can get something with a few bones."
Wang Ying rarely said casually, and he was also very familiar with Old Man Yue, and he could say whatever he wanted, and they were actually very clear about each other's temper and character.
"Don't be in vain, it just so happens that my bones are old, drink more bone broth to replenish calcium."
Old man Yue carried the bag into his room, and it was difficult to come up with what was in his mouth.
"Tell me, what's the matter with me? You kid doesn't get up early without profit, it's not your style to give things for nothing, I don't like to take advantage of people for nothing, old man, and my iron-striking skills are also not worried about eating and drinking in this world. ”
"There's really nothing going on this time, at least there may be fewer in the future."
Wang Ying smiled and shook his head, it was obviously not possible to fool him into teaching gunnery, and it was estimated that he would not come back often in the future.
"Oh?"
When Old Man Yue heard this, his eyes opened slightly, Wang Ying has always wanted to learn his own Yue family gun, he knows this very well, if there is a harvest, Wang Ying will bring some over more or less, and he can be regarded as grateful, of course, he can also be said to know the routine, but no matter what, Old Man Yue still likes Wang Ying very much.
doesn't have too much scheming, and if he wants to learn his own Yuejia gun, he also says it bluntly, and he also sends things straightforwardly, and he doesn't think about teaching the Yuejia gun to Wang Ying.
If before the end of the world, his grandsons and sons, even if he begged them to learn the things handed down by their ancestors, they would not be able to, what is the use of martial arts, and spear skills can be used as food? Or is it possible to make money? If Yongchun, gossip and the like can still collect apprentices to make some money.
This spearmanship, dancing with knives and sticks, there was no way out at that time, so before the end of the world, no one in his sons and grandsons was willing to learn this Yuejia gun.
The end of the world is coming, the atmosphere of learning martial arts is now slowly rising, and he has also thought about passing on all the Yue family guns to Wang Ying, but first, this Yue family gun has always been passed down from father to son of the Yue family, and it will never be passed on, and secondly, in this last days, the old man Yue feels that he is getting younger and younger, and everything is recovering, and he seems to have his own second spring.
"If you don't come, you won't come, you're a white-eyed wolf anyway."
Old man Yue pursed his lips and didn't ask much.
"Old man, take care of yourself, I'll go first."
Wang Ying smiled, he never took Old Man Yue's words to heart, and looked at the time, the sun was already about to set, and the black market was about to begin.
The catastrophe of 2 years ago profoundly changed many things on the earth, and the autobiography of the earth is faster than before, from nearly 24 hours a day, to almost 22 hours, a full 2 hours less.
At the same time, the revolution seems to have become longer, and the year has become longer regardless of whether it is cold or hot, the summer is hotter, the winter is colder, there were 365 days in a year, and now there are almost 400 days in a year.
With such a huge change, Wang Ying, who was struggling in the end times, naturally couldn't figure it out, and it is estimated that only the upper echelons could know what huge changes had happened in the last days 2 years ago.
Now the Internet, telephone, etc. have long since withdrawn from the lives of ordinary people, and even electricity has withdrawn from the lives of ordinary people, and everyone knows very little about the information of the outside world, that is, what news can be quickly known here in Jiangnan Base City.
As for the situation of other base cities around the base city or the whole country and the whole world, etc., I don't know anything, and there seems to be no intention for ordinary people to know these things.
Wang Ying said goodbye to Old Man Yue and walked towards the central area of the shantytown, the black market in the base city is now the most lively place in the entire base city, here, as long as you have food, you can buy anything, only you can't think of it, there is nothing you can't buy, hunger makes people want to even take out their conscience and sell it.
There are four shantytowns in the southeast and northwest of the base city, and each shantytown has spontaneously formed a black market, which is also the most prosperous and lively place in their respective areas.
The black market in Dongcheng is not too far from where Wang Ying lives, and it is a matter of five or six minutes to walk, saying that it is a black market, but in fact it is a flat land and vacant land, which is not used to build shantytowns, and everyone spontaneously takes out some things to exchange for what they need, and it slowly forms a market, but it is not officially recognized, so everyone calls it a black market.
Although it is not recognized, there is no intention of canceling it, and it seems a little inappropriate to say that the black market is a little inappropriate, but everyone is also accustomed to calling it the black market.
Before he got to the place where the black market was, Wang Ying saw many people hurrying in the direction of the black market with bulging bags, obviously also going to the black market.
The night market gradually dimmed, because green and red light floated down from the sky, so as soon as the sun set, the night soon enveloped the land, which gave the black market a slightly mysterious color.
Wang Ying turned a corner, and his vision suddenly widened, and there were already a lot of people gathered in an open space the size of several football fields, some of them were holding a mat, carefully putting their things on the mat, and then hanging out a sign that had already been written, and the sign said what they wanted to exchange.
There are also people who wander around the black market with nothing to do, and when they come across what they want, they will bargain with the stall owners, and the negotiations are often bartered, of course, food is the hard currency here, and basically everything can be bought with food.
The crowd is full of voices and lively, just like the vegetable market in the past, all kinds of people are mixed in it, the night is hazy, and the past looks like a ghost from a distance, as if it is a ghost market, and the more timid will be scared to death.
"Handsome guy, do you want to find a little sister to have fun, just give me something to eat."
Wang Ying has a ruddy complexion, a spear in his hand, and a backpack on his back, which looks like a hunter's outfit, and a hunter often means that there is food, excess food, so Wang Ying has just entered the black market, and immediately there is a girl with light red makeup who is frowning at Wang Ying.
Wang Ying heard the voice and looked over, the woman was in good shape, bumpy and delicate, the key was temperament, through the appearance of being forced by hunger now, Wang Ying saw the arrogance in her heart.
And this kind of arrogance often makes people very eager to conquer, just by looking at it, they can't wait to push her down, conquer all her arrogance, and willingly become your woman.
Obviously, before the end of the world, most of this person was also a proud superior person or something, but when the end of the world came, he had to sell his body for a bite to eat.
Wang Ying shook his head, ignored it, and continued to wander around the black market casually.
"Boss, I have a good weapon here, what do you think of this Heavenly Sword? Very sharp, blown-haired, sharpened like mud, it is definitely a sharp weapon for hunting in the wild. ”
Before he could take a few steps, Wang Ying was grabbed by a boss, and he took a sword and began to crack and sell.
Wang Ying picked up the sword and looked at it carefully, then flicked the sword body with his fingers, listened carefully to the sound made by the sword body, and then smiled and returned it to the other party.
I have been dealing with Old Man Yue for a long time, and I know some things about weapons, the key to whether this weapon is good or not is to look at the materials used to build weapons, the easiest way to identify materials is to listen to the sound, the better the steel, the crisper the sound, and this so-called 'Heavenly Sword' obviously belongs to the kind of shoddy construction, which is far worse than the weapons created by Old Man Yue, that is, it is used to fool people who don't understand this.
"Don't even want the Heavenly Sword? Do you understand Heaven and Dragon Slayer? ”
When the other party saw Wang Ying return the things, he turned his head and left, but he didn't mean to give up, and continued to fool.
"Do you have any Jiuyang Divine Skill here? If you have one, bring me a copy. ”
Wang Ying responded with a smile, ignored it, and continued to walk around the black market.
The black market is still very rich, antique calligraphy and paintings, gold and silver jewelry, mobile phones, computers, weapons, mutations in the wild, the fur of evolved beasts, firewood, lighters, gas stoves, liquefied gas...... There are all kinds of things, and all kinds of shouts come and go.
"Firewood, firewood, one pound of rice can be exchanged for 50 pounds of firewood."
"Mobile phones, computers, there are 20G blockbusters in it, and more than 10G island country action movies, absolutely let you watch enough!"
"The cow rabbit fur is here, winter is coming soon, the cow rabbit fur is not cold at all to make a jacket, only the meat of the evolved beast!"
"The famous painting of Tang Bohu in the Ming Dynasty is only exchanged for ten catties of the meat of the evolution beast!"
“……”
"Your firewood is too expensive, now trees and other things are everywhere, and they are sold so expensive, whoever wants it, one pound of rice can be exchanged for 100 pounds of firewood."
"Can you change 1 pound of rice on your computer?"
"A pound of rice? Don't change, don't change, and don't look at how many resources are in it. ”
"What about having resources? If there is no electricity, it is all in vain, and it is not converted. ”
"A pound of beef and rabbit meat for your painting? No, it doesn't work. ”
"At least 8 pounds!"
All kinds of shouting are endless, making people dizzy, and all kinds of bargaining sounds are also enough to hear.
