Chapter 1 New Town

"Here it is, here it is"

"Don't squeeze, don't squeeze, everybody has it."

Smelling the aroma of wine, the men of Gepai Township came with all kinds of containers, and under the perennial gray sky, perhaps only alcohol could soothe the depressed mood.

A few EFI trucks stopped, others moved on, and it was impossible to do big business with such a village of only a few hundred people. The people in the car jumped down, the guns in their hands loaded, and the people who traveled from south to north have encountered any emergencies, even if they have been here many times. But there are no less common guards. There is only one time for each person, and if you want to bargain to go to the side, don't try to get close to my car. In the dangerous wilderness, this car that has been welded with all kinds of messes is a guarantee of human safety.

The militia in the villages and towns also came to maintain order, beating the time-wasting guys with the butts of their guns, and hurriedly sent these people away when their brothers enjoyed it, not only did there be wine, but the "show" after night was a rare pastime. Judging from the eyes of the familiar old driver, the goods this time are definitely good.

Gepai Township Revolutionary Combat Brigade! The young people with such a red fan's name are completely different from those who had this similar name more than a hundred years ago. Those people were full of vigor and hope, and under the sky that had been gray for almost thirty years, the eyes of these young people were only numbness, exhaustion, and the dirt of not washing their faces for many years.

No one would marry someone too young, not only because people born after the war were more or less physically handicapped. Such a dangerous young man doesn't know when he will burp, even if there are not so many strange and dangerous creatures around New Xi'an. The fight for water, electricity, oil, and sometimes a new rifle collected because of the famine will lead to a conflict. By the time the people from the city arrived, there were probably already several corpses. It is the same as the corpses that have been covered in the ground by mutated plants that can be found every year. It's hard to freeze.

The few half-closed doors in the village are also tired of it. And a married woman? You first make sure that you don't touch your captain, or even the big brother of the village, when you touch the bed, and then you get a bullet to pry open your skull. Even if you're lucky enough to avoid being killed. The boss in the city is a woman, and when a woman goes to complain, she will usually raise her feet and abolish your children and grandchildren first, and then try them. There are no big ships going to the West here, and there is no sunflower treasure hidden in any ravine.

So only these "programs" are safe, hand over money, bed delivery, skilled technology, and no bullying. There's something new every time. If you have some "rare things" in your hands in this year. Maybe you can get some "special services". It is rumored that twenty or thirty years ago, when all kinds of fancy clothes were not luxuries, there was a kind of "Kauspree" gameplay that was quite popular, but this is all something that these young people dare not delusional now.

The ground began to shake slightly, and in the first car, the orders of the boss of the entire convoy came down. Laughed, "Let four, nine, and eleven cars stop with me." Other cars went to find a place to camp. ”

A huge machine about six or seven meters tall, with four legs on the lower body, a platform and two arms on the upper body, swayed and rushed over. There was a feeling of vibration throughout the ground. The young man on the operating table happily pushed and pulled various levers. Completely ignoring the shouts of the white coat in the welded iron shelf next to him.

The boss of the team got out of the car, took out his cigarette case and lit a cigarette. Hidden under the gray hair are bright eyes.

Finally, the young man stopped the oversized exoskeleton from a distance. I opened the door of the iron shelf next to it.

The white coat spun off two meters above the ground, and undoubtedly rolled into the weeds on the side of the road, and finally managed to stand up straight, which was a violent vomiting.

"Great Pharmacist, your physique is really not good."

"Fuck off your grandma, donkey balls, mechanically controlled perverts." I was still vomiting just now, but now the sound of scolding the street can be heard loudly for ten miles. It seems that Fang Cai's vomiting is not so much a physiological effect as a psychological effect.

"**Go count, what bastard in New Xi'an City can operate an exoskeleton into a roller coaster like you! Why don't I vomit when I'm with anyone, just you bastard can toss, and why do you say that I'm weak? ”

In the midst of the scolding, a crumbling steel plate on top of the giant exoskeleton finally fell down, smashing a hole in the road.

"Well, old fellow, there's always going to be something wrong with ......"

The young mechanic panicked and lifted his white coat, praying in his heart not to tell the eldest sister, with a flattering smile on his face.

"I said Xiaolinzi." The white coat pushed the guy away, panting, and shook his fingers, "Anyway, I'm used to going to the furnace maker to fix this thing, it's not a big deal, do you know what your bigger problem is today?" ”

"What?"

"If that old man takes the opportunity to raise the price today, all the losses will depend on you!"

"it!"

"That's too much, Master Sun, it's not once or twice that we have cooperated, which time I'm not ......"

"The price is fair, and there is no deception, and the advertising words are not changed, and I am tired of it." The white coat walked up to the leader of the convoy and stretched out his hand, "Come on, Lao Zheng, bring me what I want." ”

"Why are you in such a hurry to pick up the goods today?"

Master Sun smiled, "Don't try to lower the price with me, if you bring something good, I will still collect it according to the original price, and everything that should be given to you will be given to you, you should know, I dare not say that it is unique, but in this vicinity, we are the only one who can sell this thing." ”

Lao Zheng opened his hands in a disappointed manner, "I thought the friendship between us was already like a family......

"The family is long gone, and all that is left is business." Lao Sun looked Lao Zheng up and down, "As for friendship, huh." ”

Following the direction of Lao Sun's pouting, Lao Zheng looked at the front wheel of his car, and the dried dark red blood stains were still stubbornly left on the wheels even after a long journey.

"Ahaha, no kidding, let's see what I brought you."

Someone had already brought a few bags, and Master Sun was not polite, took the bags and squatted on the ground, and began to take out the plant samples and classify them.

"Alas, old goods, how many? If it's enough for fifty catties, it's still eaten at the original price. ”

"This is still an old thing, how many are there? If it's less than last time, it looks like we're looking for a replacement. ”

"Looking fresher than the last time, you found the origin nearby?"

"The damage is too bad to be used as material. Don't you know where to converge when your people fire? ”

There were some questions Lao Zheng nodded, some questions shook his head, and some questions, he could only shrug his shoulders and not answer.

While selecting various biological materials, he listened to Lao Zheng's subordinates report the quantity. Decades have passed, and all the materials that were originally stored have been found, and the rest of the time that has passed for many years may not be preserved. As a last resort, the remnants of this land can only look at the mutated plants and animals that grow all over the land. In the wake of the biosphere collapse, new species quickly took over the surface, eroding the artificial traces that had spread across the globe.

Fortunately, human beings adapt quickly, and the two-legged foodie who doesn't eat people and the four-legged foodie who doesn't eat the table quickly found something that can still be eaten from the wild plants, and survived tenaciously in this world full of radiation pollution, mutated bacteria and viruses, sewage and toxic air. Even relying on these guys who have undergone a new round of natural selection, new technologies have been developed.

What annoyed Sun was that it was clear that Lao Zheng's subordinates were careless about the knowledge he taught. Many useful parts of plants and creatures have been destroyed, and it looks like a cart full of them, but not much can be used.

There are no test fields, there is not enough electricity and light, there is not enough manpower, there is not enough equipment. Experimentation with new crops has been hampered by widespread pollution, and even in New Xi'an, there are barely double-digit farms that grow potatoes to sustain tens of thousands of people. As for the selection of new grain crops, the selection and cultivation of seeds to increase production is still far away.

Food is so difficult, not to mention medicine. The chemical industry basically no longer exists, and the choice of what can be used from new plants can only be guessed by experience. All the original knowledge and skills, after the biosphere has been changed, have almost become useless burdens. What Lao Sun is doing now is almost Shennong tasting herbs.

Originally tame creatures may have turned into terrifying predators, and some animals that were originally endangered in the human era may sprout new sprouts and begin to reproduce again, and the earth is really a joke for humans.

When he was selecting various biological materials, such a sentence suddenly popped up in Lao Sun's head. It's quite philosophical.

"It's still the same recipe, it's still a familiar taste. There's nothing about developing new recipes. ”

Lao Zheng's cigarette can't hold back, if there is a new item to buy, Lao Sun is very willing to pay a high price to collect it after appraisal, and he can also get unimaginable profits with this unique item. Today's results look ......

"How, the results of our hunting this time ......"

"It's all the same." Lao Sun rolled his eyes, "Your people may be good at killing, but in hunting, gathering, and eyesight, you just treat the same animal in another place as different." ”

"Why don't you look at something else?"

"No need, that's what the eldest sister cares about, I'll check the weight of your car. And he took it as it was. ”
