Chapter 13: Candlelight Dinner
Candles, red wine, canned meat, boiled ham instant noodles, and a hearty candlelight dinner are romantic enough in this last days, and even An Ran's little face is red and tempting.
"It's too wasteful, if we eat it like this, our supplies won't last for a few days......" An Ran said with pain as he chewed on the beef cubes.
"Haha, don't worry, this will be our minimum standard of living in the future." Li Mu grinned.
An Ran's gaze at Li Mu was full of doubts and inquiry, could it be that this guy was really from another world? was about to ask Li Mu again, but he didn't want Yu Zihao's voice to come from outside the door:
"Mr. Li! Mr. Li, it's my ......"
"Put things away." An Ran said hurriedly.
Obviously, An Ran was afraid that this high-end food like canned meat would be crooked after Yu Zihao saw it.
Li Mu smiled and let An Ran hide the cans in the cupboard of the restaurant, and just open the door by himself.
"Hello neighbor, hehe......" Yu Zihao handed over a pot of water with a smile on his face, and said, "This is a ...... for you"
Water is a very expensive thing, the kind of five-liter mineral water, a primary parasite can only be exchanged for two buckets, and the pot of water brought by Yu Zihao is about two liters, which is equivalent to the value of a pack of instant noodles.
However, Li Mu renovated the water filtration system in the kitchen in the afternoon, dismantled the part connected to the municipal water supply pipe and connected it to a large bucket, filtering the water in the two buckets of outdoor swimming pools. Although the filtration speed is slow because the water pressure is too low, it is enough to supply two people for drinking and daily washing.
So Yu Zihao's pot of water is really worthless.
"Thank you." Li Mu still smiled and accepted Yu Zihao's gift.
"What does it smell like? It's so fragrant......" Yu Zihao sniffed hard, with an intoxicated expression on his face.
"Ham sausage, boiled in boiling water." Li Mu said with a smile.
There is no electricity, no gas, and if you want to boil water, you can only use the most primitive method - burning firewood......
When Li Mu was at the survivor base in the morning, the stubble man gave two more ham sausages, and Yu Zihao also saw it, so he didn't suspect that the smell was actually the fragrance of canned meat.
Smelling the tempting aroma of meat, Yu Zihao looked at Li Mu with blank eyes and said, "Ham sausage?" Alas, I haven't eaten ham sausage for at least three months......"
However, Li Mu smiled and said nothing, Yu Zihao laughed, and said, "Which one...... We've already charged a tram for you, look at this ......."
"Really? That's great, come in......" Li Mu smiled and invited Yu Zihao into the living room, and then ran to the kitchen to get five packs of instant noodles out, but chose the kind that was traded in the survivor base - Li Mu didn't want Yu Zihao to find out that he was eating something with a production date thirty years ago.
After getting the instant noodles, Yu Zihao couldn't wait to leave, but Li Mu stopped him again and asked about the situation of the other survivor bases around.
The location of this villa complex is south of Jinyuan Mall, and the place where An Ran originally lived was north of the mall. According to the map of the capital of this world that Li Mu found in the study in the afternoon, the distance between the two places is about five kilometers, which can be regarded as relatively far.
"Well, there are several survivor bases around, but none of them are very large." Yu Zihao counted on his fingers, for example, there is a high-rise office building one kilometer away to the east, and there are a group of survivors on it: for example, two kilometers away to the south, there is an armed police training base, which is full of armed police and police, and it is said that the combat effectiveness is very strong, but they only accept parasites in foreign transactions, and they don't want anything else; For example, not far from this community, there is a high-rise residential complex, and the owners have formed a family alliance, which is said to be quite large, but they do not trade with the outside world......
As a waste picker, Yu Zihao can be said to know the surrounding situation well, which base collects batteries, which base collects liquefied gas tanks, which base has a cheaper food price, which base has a bad record of embezzling survivors' trade goods, etc., there seems to be nothing he doesn't know.
"We are three kilometers away from Jinyuan Shopping Mall, those sweepers will not find this place in a short time, even if they start to scan this area, we don't have to worry, most of their attention is focused on those high-rise buildings, ordinary people can't think of this kind of low-rise villas living in people."
Yu Zihao said with a big grin.
"The key is that you have to store enough food, otherwise when the sweepers search this area, won't it be easy for you to run into them when you go out of the community?" Li Mu said with a smile.
"Uh......" Yu Zihao's face changed, and he was really a little worried about this problem......
"Okay, it's not too early, we have to continue hunting zombies tomorrow, we should rest early." Li Mu issued an order to evict the guests.
For guys like Yu Zihao, Li Muke is not interested in helping him, it would be good if he didn't kill them and snatch the solar panels. In addition, this guy can actually be used, for example, it is a good idea to ask this money fan to help him collect gold or something.
Yu Zihao left with a heavy heart, An Ran and Li Mu returned to the restaurant to continue dinner, and asked, "Are you going to hunt zombies tomorrow?" ”
"Of course not," Li Mu said with a smile, "Don't forget that my enhancement potion hasn't fully worked yet, and I don't want to take any chances." But tomorrow we can take the wine from the cellar and trade it for supplies. ”
The strengthening potion injected near noon, after an afternoon, Li Mu had clearly felt that his strength was increasing, and in the evening, he deliberately tried to move the marble-topped table in the dining room. This kind of table is not light, not to mention dozens of kilograms, and under normal circumstances, it takes two to lift it. But now this dining table is in Li Mu's hands, it is almost the same as an ordinary solid wood dining table, Li Mu held it with both hands, and held the table up.
According to this growth rate, Li Mu estimates that he will be able to reach An Ran's level in three days, carrying two or three hundred kilograms of things on his back - well, An Ran is a girl, and it seems that his goal is not ambitious enough......
"We still have a lot of food, can we trade it now?" An Ran asked while eating ham instant noodles.
"We have a lot of food, but we have too few guns and ammunition." Li Mu said, "On the one hand, we have to guard against those sweepers, and on the other hand, after my drug effect is fully effective in three days, I am ready to go to the TV station." ”
"You're still going to find the video of the flying saucer?" An Ran frowned.
"Yes, at least we're a little closer to the capital now, right?" Li Mu smiled optimistically.
