The Red Snow Aid Station is not a "station", but just a room in the outer circle of Red Snow, with a piece of paper pasted next to the window with double-sided tape on the outside, and written in a messy handscript in Russian that Echiyo can't understand, and there is a 60% chance that the meaning of "aid station" can be translated through a translation plugin. Because the aid station itself is not a legal private organization, they have to stay in a new place every week to avoid the inspection of the administrator - in fact, it is equivalent to forming a tacit understanding with the administrator, as long as there is no problem during the random inspection of the superior manager, the grassroots administrator will not get along with the resident players of Hongxue.

It was just as cold everywhere within the red snow, but even so, when Echiyo found the aid station with Parasitic and Empty Alley, there were still five people squatting under the wall outside the window. Three male players and two female players, one of whom appears to be a couple, are huddled together in military coats. But whether they are single or not, their clothes are quite wrinkled and their hair is very messy.

Echiyo knew that they were all dead souls, and although they may have spent a lot of money on their avatars in the past, they now had no money to maintain them. He was just like them before the autumn harvest.

Seeing that a neatly dressed player was coming, the dead souls squatting under the base of the wall gave way to the window, allowing Eri to follow the window and go inside. Inside, a circle of flashlights is set up as a light source, and there are two folding desks, in which a volunteer is sitting with his head propped up.

I don't know this volunteer, and this Russian brother naturally doesn't know either, but he is also a very kind person who can have that heart to save the dead souls. When the volunteers saw them coming, they offered to say hello, but unfortunately no one here knew Russian.

Erido changed the translation language to Chinese to Russian, and then relied on the translation plug-in to ask: "Are you the Red Snow Aid Station?" Can I make a donation? ”

"Yes." The volunteer didn't show any special expression like an ordinary Russian, but politely switched to the Russian-Chinese translation plug-in and asked, "Thank you very much, how many points would you like to donate?" ”

"Isn't it ......," said Echishi, "can you donate yuan directly - rubles?" ”

The volunteer looked at him and first pointed to the matza stacked on the opposite side: "You may be seated." Then, compared to the official Russian staff, he said patiently, "The original intention of our Red Snow Rescue Station is to let Red Snow players donate points that are meaningless to them and help those in need." However, because we are not a legal organization, monetary donations cannot be accepted by law. ”

He said it very clearly, and the translation plugin translated it very clearly. However, Hui Qianshi definitely couldn't brush points here to donate money, so he directly glanced at the amount on his trading panel: "I want to donate 50,000 rubles, but I only have currency, not so many points." ”

Fifty thousand rubles may not be much for an official charity, but it's a lot of money for the Red Snow Aid Station, which can help the dead souls they are helping to save for more than a year. But if such an unregistered organization handles the money, after Hongxue's administrator finds out, they will face a lot of problems.

The volunteer was silent for a few seconds, then said, "You are very loving, but we can't keep the money." I have a suggestion that I can take you to buy the money into goods that will not depreciate, so that we can store them and thus avoid dealing with the money directly. ”

"What is the best thing to buy?" Eri asked in the translation plugin.

The volunteer looked at him again, as if to confirm that he should be reliable, and then lowered his voice and said, "Mints." "The girls are small

Hearing the electronic voice of the translation plug-in say this word, the empty alley gardenia and the parasitic floating life couldn't help but feel a tense in their hearts: it really didn't take any effort to get it.

Echishi turned his head to look at them, then nodded to the volunteer, "Yes." Please take us there. ”

——

The gray area of St. Petersburg is developing rapidly, and less than a month ago mints were just a new thing on the black market, but now they have become "hard currency" among the marginalized, and even the Red Snow Aid Station has relied on buying and selling them to avoid currency transactions. This may be because mints are really a rare "medicine" for those heavy players in St. Petersburg District to extend the online time, the market is stable, and the price fluctuation is naturally small.

And just like the autumn harvest said, the order of 50,000 rubles has not yet seen the manufacturer. Volunteers from the Red Snow Shelter took them out of Red Snow and to what appeared to be a shopping street, but they found a wholesaler of mints in an ice cream shop.

The volunteers and the wholesaler chatted a few words, and the wholesaler said impatiently, "Да, да, да......"

Echiyo knew that this meant "yes". Then the volunteer said a few more words to the wholesaler, whose face softened slightly, and nodded, "Хорошо."

The volunteer pulled Echishi out of the ice cream shop, and the Gardenia of the Empty Alley and the Parasitic Float also came out, and after confirming that the people inside could not see it, he took out a piece of paper and wrote a line with a pen, which can be translated from the translation plug-in: "You personally transfer 43,500 rubles to him, and the mints purchased with this money can be exchanged for at least 50,000 rubles in Hongxue." ”

You can also bargain for this, and you can get an eighty-seven discount. This amount of rubles is equivalent to more than 4,000 yuan, which is a little higher than the estimated amount of money for the empty alley gardenia and the parasitic floating life, but it is not unacceptable. It's just that they muttered in their hearts, how could Echishi spend such a large sum of money as 50,000 rubles as soon as he came up, did he know that the two of them came out with a lot of money?

Below that line, Echiyo wrote, "Okay. ”

Then he entered the house and without saying a word, transferred 43,500 rubles to the wholesaler through the official personal trading panel, and the wholesaler went in to pick up the "goods" and let the volunteers inspect the goods and put them in the hiking bag on his back.

On the way back, although neither the empty alley nor the parasitic tree could understand what the volunteer said, it was obvious that he was in a very happy mood. It seemed a little weird, given that his backpack now had a full bag of poison in it. But in fact, what seems to others to be sinful and depraved may seem to him only hope for the destitute.

Grey Charity ...... Is it true charity? The Empty Alley Gardenia thought silently, but it didn't really matter if it was "real" or not.
