"Hey! Man, want to trade? "The voice came from the gas mask, and the tone sounded strange. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 Hearing this, Lunas was stunned for a moment, and then maliciously thought that this person must be Jewish.

"What is there to trade?" This was the first time that Lunas had communicated with a rational person in this world.

"Water, food, ammunition, news。。。。。。 Precious metals are also fine, and the rest can be traded except for human life, which is not worth much. The other party was obviously familiar with this attitude of surprise.

"I want some 9mm caliber pistol bullets," he said, casually taking out a few boxes of activated charcoal from his bag, he had a lot of them in his hand, after all, he didn't use them himself, he was just pretending.

"Activated carbon, eighty percent new, yes, this thing is in short supply, I can produce 30 bullets, how about it?" Flipping through the charcoal box in his hand, the other party expertly made an offer, which made Lunas more and more convinced that he was a Jew (wait, you seem to be a Jew in the novel, right?). ）。

"Yes." Although even if you think about it, you know how dark this price is, but Lunas still agrees without hesitation, after all, those bullets are dispensable, and the next further contact is the most important. "Is there a camp set up by the survivors nearby?" It is unclear how long it will take for him to return, and it would be beneficial to have proper contact with local forces.

"The message is also a 。。。。。。。 to add money" A naked businessman's reply, but his eyes were quickly drawn to what was in Lunas's hand, a compressed biscuit! In this era of scarcity, there is nothing more valuable than compressed biscuits, which have a long shelf life and are practical. "Deal, about 5 kilometers to the southeast, there was the original City of Angels, but now, hehe。。。。。。" (Note: Los Angeles Los. Angles is also known as the City of Angels) said, quickly snatching the compressed biscuit from Lunas's hand, for fear that Lunas would regret it, and the greed that flashed in his eyes was also dispelled by the SVD who had been opening the insurance.

"Happy working together!" As he spoke, Lunas stepped back towards the two of them, although he was sure that he had been cheated twice by this unscrupulous profiteer, but Lunas was still very satisfied with this transaction, after all, he had been given a way to communicate with the society of this world, of course, when he learned the value of compressed cookies in this world, he didn't think so.

The credibility of the Jewish merchants proved to be good after receiving enough profits, and it was not long before Lunas found the settlement built on the ruins.

Despite the protection of the anti-missile system, Los Angeles, which was taken care of as a key target, suffered considerable losses. All the skyscrapers were bulldozed into wreckage by the shock wave, the concrete-poured roads were uprooted, the wires were torn off, and the bodies of the victims were too large to be buried one by one, so they could only be piled together and burned together, but there were still many corpses that could not be cleaned up, and the plague was born, and the entire periphery of the settlement became a paradise for scavengers.

"Stop!" Before entering the settlement, Lunas was stopped by two men with guns, "Get checked!" As he spoke, one of them brutally shoved an electronic thermometer into Lunas's ear, while the other stared at him with a gun.

"No problem!" Hearing this, the muzzle of the gun finally stopped pointing at Lunas. "Listen, boy! This is a Los Angeles settlement, private fights are forbidden inside, and there is something to solve outside! Once inside, you have to accept the arranged labor, or you don't want to get a little food! The man's tone was not polite at all.

"Is there anything I can trade here?" Not minding the other party's rough tone at all, Lunas simply set up the information he needed here, saving a while and spending money in vain.

"If you want food, you have to trade it in the place of the old municipal building, and you can buy other things casually." The other party seemed very impatient.

When people are impatient, they will always make some actions that are harmful to their own interests.

It was not so much a gathering place as a concentration of tents built from the ruins, on which people toiled numbly from hunger in exchange for stone-dried black bread and a pitiful drinking water.

The construction quality of the municipal building is quite good, even after being attacked by the shock wave, most of the buildings remain intact, and the first and second floors are currently in use. People are good-looking, and those who don't have a good face are just making concessions to this because their interests are sufficient. Even though the outside environment is so bad, the inside of the municipal building is still clean. In the middle of the lobby sat an elderly man in his late teens, flanked by a few armed guards in addition to a few people who were still working. No one dares to underestimate this thin old man, who can become the leader of the entire settlement in the last days with his unrestrained body, and this old man's prestige and skill can be imagined.

"What can I do for you, my child?" The first sentence subconsciously increases the other party's favorability towards you, even if you know that the other party is just saying some polite words, but you will still make a certain degree of concession in the following negotiations.

"I want to exchange some precious metals, which I can exchange for food." As he spoke, he pulled out a packet of compressed biscuits from his bag.

"It's not a good idea, considering that compressed biscuits are worth a lot more than gold these days." It is said to persuade Lunas, but in fact, it is to probe the specific purpose of Lunas.

"The end times will always end, don't you?" This is the purpose of the change of direction that refuses to tell him about himself, and as for investing in the days after the end of the world, the devil believes it! If you want to invest in the future, live first!

"Okay," the old man nodded in understanding, after all, the benefits were real, and as for the temptation just now, it was just to satisfy his curiosity, "I can exchange it for gold for you at five times the price." "Anyway, now that the settlement is home to several large banks throughout Los Angeles, there is really a lot of gold that can't be eaten or used. Lunas easily took out six pieces from his bag, this kind of thing Lunas didn't need much himself, but he couldn't take out too much at once, five times the weight of gold was already a good price.
