From the south gate of the base to Guling Town, there is a distance of about seven or eight kilometers, and it takes about an hour to walk over, so after arriving at the intersection, Wang Xinyan took the initiative to rent two rickshaws, yes, it is a rickshaw, and now gasoline and diesel are in short supply, which is a strategic resource, where can it be used for transportation within the base, plus there are too many refugees in the base, there is a surplus of human resources, and many have no occupation and no income, so the ancient profession of rickshaw driver has returned to people's sight.

In fact, as soon as Ye Fan and the others appeared, at least seven or eight coachmen surrounded them to solicit business, Wang Xinyan scolded them a few words, and then randomly selected two middle-aged coachmen.

The fare is a car and a penny of silver, don't think it's very expensive, although the gold and silver in the last days don't want to become worthless like paper money, but the price has also plummeted, and a penny of silver can only be exchanged for two packs of instant noodles!

Wang Xinyan gave him not cash silver, but a silver coupon issued by the base, with "one coin silver coupon" written on the front and "five grams of silver coupon" written on the back, with simple anti-counterfeiting marks on both sides.

This fare is not out of her own pocket, she can find the base citizen registration office for reimbursement when the time comes, otherwise where will she be willing to do it, you know, as a clerk of the base, her daily salary is only ten yuan of silver coupons, which can only barely enough for her, her mother and younger brother to eat and clothe!

But with such a job, she is already very satisfied, and many people envy it! If it weren't for the interviewer's soft spot for her, where would it be her turn!

A woman like her, who has no fighting power and no strength, can find a job to make ends meet in these last days, what is there not to be satisfied with?!

As long as you work hard for five years, don't offend people, don't make mistakes, and then you can get the qualification of a base citizen and increase your salary a little more, then her family's life will be guaranteed!

The route taken by the rickshaw all the way is the tourist route of the year, but it is not the beautiful and tourist-like scene at the beginning, but a dirty mess and noise.

In the woods on the side of the road, there are tents set up by refugees everywhere, and there are domestic garbage and excrement all over the ground, no one cleans them at all, and there are many small stalls set up on the roadside, selling some things, such as watches, necklaces, brand-name coats, etc., but unfortunately few people care, and there are many old people and children in ragged clothes, kneeling on the side of the road like passers-by stretching out their hands to beg.

The fact that all these camps are here is shocking and sad.

"My mom and I also lived here, but then I was lucky enough to get the job, and my mother also made some money by washing clothes for the army, so I left here and rented a small house in a small town nearby." Wang Xinyan said to Ye Fan, who was riding together. I don't know if I'm glad or afraid.

"Alas, it seems that the base is really not a paradise, and the people here are not having a good time." Ye Fan said with emotion.

"Yes, even now, our family doesn't have much food, and my mother often saves things for me and my brother to eat, and she works hungry." Wang Xinyan's eyes were red, and then she said enviously, "But you don't have to worry, evolutionaries like you, just the subsidies in the base are enough for you to barely eat, and the house doesn't have to worry, the base will soon send you a set to live in, if you are willing to go out to complete the task, then there is endless money, you can eat whatever you want, of course, it may be more dangerous"

"Do you want to be an evolutionary?" Ye Fan asked.

"Yes, who wouldn't?! But the Evolution Element Seed is only possible to obtain by killing a lot of alien beasts, where do I have this ability, otherwise I have to go to the black market to spend money to buy it, and now an Evolution Element Seed has been sold for a hundred taels of gold, where can I afford it" Wang Xinyan said with annoyance.

One hundred taels of gold, the current value is equal to one thousand taels of silver, according to her salary, she needs to save for more than ninety years without eating or drinking before she can buy an evolutionary element!

"But my brother wants to join the army recently, so that as long as he behaves well, he can be assigned a pistol, and then he can use the pistol to fight with alien beasts, if he is lucky, he may really be able to get an evolutionary element, but he is only fifteen years old, I am so worried about him" Wang Xinyan suddenly choked.

Ye Fan comforted her a few words, but there was nothing else to say, his bounty has not been received yet, even if he gets it, it is impossible to give it away casually, it is something he earned desperately, and he has another use.

There are too many poor people in the last days, and the situation of any one on the side of the road may be worse than Wang Xinyan's family, although Ye Fan is now a little strong and a little wealthy, but he can only protect himself, how can he bother to take care of others?

His cousin hasn't been found yet, and I'm afraid it won't work if he doesn't spend the money at that time, and his parents are far away in a different province, and they don't know if they can see each other again in this life

gave Xu Xiaoyuan an evolutionary yuan seed before, it was purely for the sake of her taking care of him after he fell into a coma, which could be regarded as returning her a favor, and this Wang Xinyan was just a one-sided relationship, where would he wait for him?

An hour later, the two rickshaws arrived at Guling Town, and from a distance, they saw the walls as tall as the Great Wall of the base.

This wall was originally built as a base wall, only because after the base was expanded, it became a "city within a city".

Therefore, Guling Town is now called the inner city, which is the political center of the Lushan base.

Only the most important people in the base can live here, and many of the base's institutional offices are also located here.

For example, the management office of the base's civic office.

Wang Xinyan took Ye Fan and the other three to go through some registration procedures, and received 10 taels of silver coupons from the base, and then said to them: "Three, you are all evolutionaries, according to the provisions of the "Base Provisional Law", you can get a house for free. Then he took a map and a form and handed it to them, "This is the map of the base, which shows all the eighteen towns in our base at present, except for Guling Town and Xingang Town, you can choose any town to live in, and this form is the information of the houses in each town, as long as it is a house without a signature, you can choose as you like, after choosing, sign your name." ”

The big bamboo pole took a look at the form, and couldn't help frowning: "This information is too simple, not to mention the photos, even the text introduction is only one or two sentences, how do you let me choose?" ”

Wang Xinyan patiently explained: "We are sorry for this, and we also want to provide you with better services, but because the current conditions of the base are really simple, we can only ask you to be wronged." ”

Da Zhugan was still not satisfied, and continued to reason with Wang Xinyan.

Ye Fan didn't care at all, studied it a little, and then chose a house located in the hot spring town on the shore of Poyang Lake, signed his name, and then handed it back to Wang Xinyan.

"Selected? Then you wait a minute, I'll contact you there. Wang Xinyan said.

"No need, I can find it myself, I've got the certificate anyway." Ye Fan shook his head and said.

"Oh, that's okay, please take care of yourself, I wish you a happy life in the Lushan base." Wang Xinyan said.

"Thank you, then I'll take my leave."

Ye Fan said thank you, took the relevant certificate and left alone, he spent two dollars in silver coupons, asked a rickshaw driver to send him to the hot spring town, and then found the house of choice according to the introduction.

This is the second floor of a small building facing the street, although the layout is a little shabby, but Ye Fan is very satisfied, it is good to have a place to live, and it is free, and he is picky.

There are many houses on the street where the small building is located, some of which are empty, and others are occupied. The streets are very clean, there are obviously cleaners intended, and there are not even a small stall beggars, so there should also be a "chengguan"

It was a world away from the refugee camps I saw along the way.

Listening to Wang Xinyan, this place is basically the home of evolutionaries and soldiers, and other survivors are not capable of living here at all.

Ye Fan thought that he had thrown off the big bamboo pole and the fat man, but he didn't expect that in the evening, these two goods actually appeared in this town and greeted him warmly

"Dude, you don't wait for us, why are you running so fast?" The fat man said.

"Yes, if I hadn't been smart and took a look at the form, we wouldn't have found you." The big bamboo pole said. "Now, we are neighbors, and we will take care of each other in the future!"

So in this way, Ye Fan and two new neighbors who made his head big started life in the Lushan base together.

The next day, Ye Fan entered Guling Town again, he asked around, and finally found Qin Yulin's house, of course, not to share the bounty - Qin Yulin himself had not yet obtained this bounty - but to ask him to help him find his cousin. It's a pity that he was told that Qin Yulin was out and would not be able to come back for at least three or five days.

In desperation, he had no choice but to change his plan and go to find Wang Qinian and Lin Mei'er and them, after all, he promised Lin Shenhe to escort them to the Lushan base, but they separated halfway, and it was also appropriate to say sorry in the past.

It's a pity that no matter how much you inquire, no one knows their whereabouts, Ye Fan thought about it carefully, and finally understood: they were involved in such a major secret as Professor Tang and the dark metal refining technology, of course, it was impossible for ordinary people to know their situation.

So the matter had no choice but to be abandoned.

Just when Ye Fan was about to return in vain, he suddenly saw a propaganda poster on the side of the street: Professor Zhou Yueyang will hold an evolution lecture tomorrow! The venue is the site of the famous Lushan Conference!

Zhou Yueyang's name, Ye Fan has admired it for a long time, he is not an evolutionary himself, he has not even grafted the evolutionary species, but he is the top expert in studying evolutionary theory and gene grafting! He has a deep study of the details of evolution and the evolutionary's control of ability, and the four masters in the base have all been guided by him, and he has taken a lot of detours! Otherwise, it won't be possible to advance to a third-order powerhouse in one year!

Ye Fan knew that if he could listen to one of his lectures, he would definitely benefit a lot!
