After inquiring along the way, Xie Tian soon found the apocalyptic market located in the farmers' market, the farmers' market is open, the area is quite large, and the flow of people inside is crowded, looking hot, Zhao Ziye and Xie Yufei both feel very fresh, I don't know what the way of trading is in this last days, there are at least hundreds of people in the market at this time, and many people directly occupy the stalls in the farmers' market, piling a large number of various materials on it, and constantly selling.

"Shenhuo tactical flashlight, super strong light, there are five modes, with batteries and car chargers, the highest model, big sale, only sell one pound of rice~~~"

"SK-II fairy water, absolutely genuine, imported from this country, 75 ml, the original price is 580, the current price is only two catties and a half of rice, other foods are also available, and Chanel Classic No. 5 perfume, 100 ml, the original price is 1000 yuan, the current price is four catties of rice!"

"The United States original 5.11 military boots, serious American goods, half a year ago from the United States purchased, because I like to buy two pairs, this pair of brand new has not been worn, 43 yards, three catties of rice to take away!"

The three of them walked around, most of the things sold in the bazaar are all kinds of non-food items, and their asking price is not money or gold, silver and jewelry, but food, now the value of food has risen a hundred times, and it is not measured by money, it is measured by other materials, these other materials are not anything of value, they must be really useful, they are valuable, otherwise there is a high-end LCD TV worth tens of thousands of yuan here, and no one will be willing to spend even half a catty of rice to exchange.

In this grain-based trading market, rice is the most popular, and there are some people who sell food, but they all use high-end foods and canned food in exchange for ordinary rice.

After Zhao Ziye saw it, he blurted out and asked, "Thank God, why is it all asking for rice here." ”

"In times of crisis, life comes first, and the economy is naturally the food standard." Xie Tian smiled slightly and said, "Do you think that someone will be stupid enough to exchange something that can survive for some non-living banknotes or gold and silver?" ”

Zhao Ziye nodded lightly, and Xie Yufei on the side couldn't help but sigh: "The price depreciation is so great, Chanel No. 5 for four catties of rice, this is too different from the price of money in the last days." ”

Xie Tian said with a smile: "Four catties of rice are expensive, that's just her asking price, believe it or not, her bottle of fairy water and perfume, I can buy two catties of rice at most?" ”

Both of them were suspicious, Xie Tian smiled, walked up to the woman who sold cosmetics, and asked, "Eldest sister, how can you sell cosmetics cheaper?" ”

The woman shouted for a long time and no one stepped forward to ask, and at this moment she saw an interested buyer, and hurriedly said: "Little brother, my cosmetics are all genuine and licensed, and the asking price is already very reasonable, but if you take both, just give six catties of rice!" ”

Xie Tian smiled indifferently and said: "This thing, you can't eat or drink, it's a bit outrageous to exchange for six catties of rice, if you want to sell it sincerely, I will pay two catties of rice, at a price, and the deal will be made if it doesn't work, forget it." ”

"That's not going to work." The woman said with a depressed face: "These two things add up to nearly two thousand yuan, and they can only be exchanged for two catties of rice, isn't that too much of a loss?" No, no, no."

"Then forget it." Xie Tian said, turned around and wanted to leave, at this time the woman struggled for a moment, stopped Xie Tian in the back, and said, "Little brother, two catties of rice are two catties of rice, it's a deal!" ”

Xie Tian smiled slightly, nodded, in order to go around the market, he specially carried a mountaineering bag of materials, the rice was about ten catties, the woman took Xie Tian to an electronic fair scale, Xie Tian was also kind, weighed out an extra catty of rice, handed it to her and said: "Sister, this is three catties." ”

The woman didn't expect Xie Tian to give an extra catty, you must know that a thin woman like her, a catty of rice can be used as a ration for three days, she immediately hugged the rice for a while, and then handed Xie Tian two bottles of cosmetics and left happily.

Xie Tian handed the two bottles of cosmetics to the two women, and said with a smile: "This is for you, you two can exchange them with each other." ”

Zhao Ziye on the side was a little moved, but he also said with some distress: "I thought that the price was extremely cheap just now, but thinking that three catties of rice is enough for one person to eat for several days, I feel that it is so luxurious to exchange it for this useless thing."

Xie Yufei also nodded lightly in agreement, and said, "There is an indescribable feeling in my heart, a feeling of waste." ”

Xie Tian smiled comfortingly and said, "The materials are not a problem for us, don't think so much, if you see something you like, let's buy it." ”

The three of them continued to wander around the market, and a middle-aged man put six bottles of canned food in front of him and kept selling, all of which were canned meat. ”

"Change the rice." The man smiled and said, "Canned food is too extravagant, I don't want to eat it, it's best to exchange it for some rice." ”

Xie Tian didn't know the price ratio of meat and rice now, so he asked curiously: "How much rice can you exchange for a bottle of canned food like this?" ”

The middle-aged man smiled: "I'm thinking, a bottle of canned meat packed with one catty, I have to exchange it for more than three catties of rice, after all, the nutritional value and taste of meat and rice are different." ”

Xie Tian nodded, and at this time, a fat and well-dressed man walked over, pointed to a pile of canned food from a middle-aged man, and asked, "How do you sell this canned food?" ”

When the middle-aged man saw the customer, he hurriedly introduced: "These are all canned meat within the expiration date, and they are exchanged for rice by weight, one to three." ”

"Change rice?" The fat man frowned, took off a string of gold chains as thick as little fingers from his neck, and said with a wealth of money: "Na, this is pure 24k gold, ninety-eight grams, in exchange for these cans of yours." ”

"Don't." The middle-aged man pursed his lips and said, "That thing can't be eaten or drunk, let alone ninety-eight grams, and nine hundred and eighty grams won't be changed." ”

"You're thinking a little funny?" The fat man said with some annoyance: "When I bought this chain, it was forty-eight thousand, and you were not happy to exchange a few bottles of broken cans for you?" ”

Seeing that the fat man's tone was not good, the middle-aged man sneered and asked, "This brother has just entered the safe zone, right?" In this way, I will give you 50,000 cash red tickets to buy your clothes, are you willing to strip them to me? ”

The fat man was suddenly choked and speechless, at this time, the middle-aged man smiled faintly, lifted his sleeve, pointed to a watch on his wrist, and said: "If you want to know the goods, you should know how much this is worth." ”

The fat man looked at it and exclaimed, "Patek Philippe!" Hundreds of thousands, right? ”

"Dollars." The middle-aged man took off the watch and said lightly: "If you give me two catties of rice, you can take this thing, I picked up an electronic one on the road a few days ago, it is more accurate than this, and it has more functions, and I want to dispose of this thing." ”

The fat man knew that he had met an outsider, and sighed: "Big brother, you said that the way of the world is not to let us rich people live."

Xie Tian couldn't cry or laugh on the side, so he walked away with the two women, but the scene just now also made Xie Tian more sure of the current grain-based economy, currency, precious metals, and gems have become worthless dung in this kind of years, and the hundred-yuan red banknotes that people used to love are now too hard to wipe their buttocks, and when it is a problem for people to fill their stomachs, only food is fundamental, so this food-based economic model is almost a matter of course, and he is now sitting on a Volvo truck full of supplies, can be regarded as a super-rich man in the last days!
