Chapter 20 Polluted Water
"You say you've researched it? When? How didn't I hear a radio report. Hu Kai asked anxiously, after all, although his thunder and lightning ability was still strong in the early stage, there was no way to improve it more powerfully.
"Sir, don't worry, listen to me slowly." Seeing that the success aroused everyone's appetite, the waiter was not in a hurry to continue.
When she saw that these four people could not be seen from their faces, of course, except for the woman who was tightly wrapped, the others were capable people from their faces and clothes, so she naturally wondered if she could get more benefits from the information she had.
Hu Kai is an understanding person, and when he saw the waiter's appearance, he understood seven or eight in his heart, and said to her: "You tell us everything you know, we are not stingy people, look at our bag?" There is also a lot of food in it, and if your information is useful, it will not be used to you in addition to the cost of our stay. β
Seeing that the goal was achieved, the waiter continued with a smile: "Then Juanzi thank you sir first." "It turns out that this waiter's name is Juanzi.
So Juanzi slowly talked about it, it turned out that he could support a hotel in this base in the last days, and the background would naturally not be shallow.
The son of the owner of this shop is the management of the government in the last days, and Juanzi doesn't know what he does, but it is precisely because of this that he will always know some gossip.
So the news was not released on the radio because it was only known to some members of the management.
"Do you know how crystals work?" Hu Kai asked Juanzi.
"I don't know, but after receiving this news the day before yesterday, some people with abilities were notified to go to the Ability Management Department, and no one who has been notified to go in has not come out, probably to study the method!" Juanzi smacked her lips and said that her mouth was dry for a long time.
Seeing this, Su Man just wanted to turn around and take out a paper cup from his backpack and wanted to fill it with water for Juanzi, but Hu Kai blocked it without a trace, then took out a bottle of mineral water from the bag, took the paper cup, poured a cup and handed it to Juanzi.
"Let's drink some water!"
Juanzi's eyes brightened, and her slightly vegetable-colored face lit up...... Belch! Looks greener.
Juanzi picked up the cup and drank it in one gulp, and Hu Kai poured her another glass before motioning for her to continue.
Juanzi then opened his mouth and continued: "It is said that although the method of use has been researched at present, it is not certain that some supernatural people have been summoned to practice. β
Hu Kai frowned: "Well, it seems that we have no way to know at the moment, we can only wait until we get to the base of City B and then find a way, so what is the unified standard for the exchange of transactions you said?" β
"It's now that crystals, gold, and food are used to pay for exchange, and the most popular one at the moment is food, because when the usage of crystals has not yet been announced, the need for crystals is not much for the supernatural, and ordinary people put food first."
"How do you calculate the exchange rate?"
"Now food is priceless and unmarketable, and everyone keeps food in their own hands, so the standard of food cannot be measured, and if someone needs it, they are willing to exchange food for many things, so most of them are still gold and crystals."
Juanzi paused and took a sip of water: "And the newly released transaction exchange standard is to use gold and crystals as currency circulation. The ratio of gold to crystals is: one grade 0 crystal is equal to one gram of gold; One 0.5 crystal equals five 0 crystals, which is five grams of gold, while one 1 crystal is equal to two 0.5 crystals and 10 grams of gold. β
"Crystals are still graded? How is it divided? Without waiting for Hu Kai to speak, Chen Zixiang followed and asked.
"A white or a hint of pink or red crystals in it is a grade 0, an all-pink one is a grade 0.5, and a red one is a grade 1." Juanzi explained.
Su Man had a bottom in his heart, although this statement was different, it was very similar to the classification that Xiao Ling said to himself.
Hu Kai nodded and asked Juanzi: "What about the accommodation standard?" β
"I'll get the accommodation standards later, but they have just been formulated and haven't been hung up. So are you going to open a four-person suite? Or two standard rooms? Juanzi looked at Hu Kai and asked, because through observation, it was obvious that he was in charge.
Why does Juanzi think that she needs a standard room, this is because after the end of the world, it will be more difficult for women who are vulnerable groups to survive, and the women who have been half the sky seem to have become men's accessories overnight.
And from Su Man's performance just now, Juanzi felt that Su Man might be Hu Kai's woman, although it may be too bloated, but maybe people like it more heavily flavored. (Su Manbang: You're a heavy taste, your whole family is heavy on taste!) οΌ
"Uh...... No, open a triple room for the three of us and a single room for her. Hu Kai pointed at Su Man and said.
At this time, Juanzi looked at Su Man, who was tightly wrapped and round, with an incredible and envious complex look: "Okay, please give me a few temporary documents, and I will register for you." β
Juanzi took out a sign from under the counter with various room prices: 2 grade 0 crystals or 2 grams of gold for a single room; 3 grade 0 crystals or 3 grams of gold in a double room; 4 Grade 0 crystals or 4 grams of gold in a triple room; 5 Grade 0 crystals or 5 grams of gold in a quadruple room.
Hu Kai thought about it and didn't take the crystal, because he didn't know what the crystallization would be used for in the future, so let's use gold first! I also searched a lot of gold before, not to mention that I also packed a gold jewelry counter in a big supermarket before.
6 grams is about the weight of a ring, Hu Kai took out a men's ring and handed it to Juanzi, Juanzi took out a weigher from under the counter and said to Hu Kai: "Now after the standard comes out, we will all have these." β
Then put the ring given by Hu Kai and weighed it, more than 5 grams, Hu Kai took out a pair of earrings and put it on nearly 7 grams, and said: "Okay, it's enough to take us to the room in a while, and you can get some food." β
"Okay, okay, thank you, thank you" Juanzi hurriedly thanked Hu Kai, that's food, food!
Regardless of whether there were any guests or not, Juanzi handed us back the form and put away the ring and studs, took the key and took us upstairs, and helped us arrange two rooms next to each other.
When he came out, he told us: "By the way, the toilet in the bathroom can be used, but the water is not clean, so there is no way to take a shower or drink, and because there is no electricity, other things are basically not available." β
"You can't use anything, and it's so expensive? Want so much gold? Chen Zixiang said loudly to Juanzi.
"This ...... It's not that I ordered, and the conditions of the last days, you will just take it! Juanzi whispered.
"Okay, we know," Hu Kai said to Juanzi, and took out two packets of biscuits from his bag: "This is for you, thank you for the news." β
Seeing that Juanzi didn't answer Hu Kai, he asked, "Is there anything else?" β
"Well, can you give me a bottle of water?" Afraid that Hu Kai would not agree, he hurriedly said: "I can, you can just take a pack of biscuits, okay?" β
Hu Kai frowned and handed Juanzi a bottle of water and said, "Let's take the biscuits, and add another bottle of water to you, but can you tell me why?" The water in N city is tight right now? β
Afraid that Hu Kai would regret it, Juanzi held the water bottle tightly in his hand before saying: "Thank you, Juanzi doesn't know how much thank you is, although I can drink some water here every day, but there is a limit, only give me half a bottle of water every day, I also have a younger brother at home, so I have to secretly leave a little to him every day." β
Su Man listened a little unbearable, and was taking an empty bottle out of his bag and wanted to fill it with water for Juanzi, anyway, he had water.
As soon as he saw Su Man flipping the bottle, Hu Kai knew what she wanted to do, and hurriedly walked over and took the empty bottle from Su Man's hand, and then turned his back to Juanzi and shook his hand at Su Man.
Hu Kai had already stopped himself twice, and no matter how slow he was, he should know that he didn't want to do anything, so Su Man just handed over the bottle and stopped moving.
At this time, Juanzi said again: "Mr. Hu, the base of N City is now seriously short of water. β
"Oh? How so? It's not that the base is ready before. Chen Zixiang couldn't help asking.
"Yes, N City began to prepare the base as early as when it was speculated that there would be a catastrophe, but as we all know, N City has never lacked fresh water resources, perhaps because it is not lacking and it is located in the lower reaches of the river with abundant water storage, so when a series of measures such as food, clothing and other materials and the establishment of special relief measures are established, there are not many water reserves." Juanzi finished speaking in one breath and slowed down slightly.
"After the end of the world, the water quality has changed, and even some people were thirsty, and after drinking the water of the river, they became those zombie monsters, because this incident was very big before, so many people now dare not drink the water that is not sure if it is pure water even if they die of thirst."
"What? You say the water is all polluted now? Su Man was also taken aback.
Because he was never short of water, the team had never known about this situation before because he had two water abilities of himself and Zhang Zhang and canned water collected from various places.
"How can human beings live like this?" Pi Jun, who had been silent, couldn't help but sigh.
"Then there are no water adepts in your base?" Hu Kai shifted the topic to the issue he cared about, it seemed that the water shortage in the base of N City had reached a certain level, which could explain why the inspector was a little weird after seeing Su Man's ability.
"Yes, Mr. Hu, but you know that there are very few people with abilities, and although Juanzi doesn't know how many there are in the base, there are definitely not many. Especially since it hasn't been officially announced whether crystallization can successfully increase abilities, I'm afraid that there is very little water that can be produced by water-based abilities. β
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but nod.
There are ready-made water system abilities in their team, Zhang Zhang can only make about half a basin of water at a time, and then he has to rest for a day to make it again, although Su Man has a little more, it is only one basin. Of course, these are things that everyone didn't find out that Su Man actually just deliberately controlled the water.
"Now the base is recruiting a large number of water system abilities, if there are water system abilities coming, the base will find a way to retain the water system abilities with generous treatment." Juanzi replied.
It seems that Su Man will be a little troublesome if he wants to leave the base of N City smoothly this time, Hu Kai thought to himself.
