Chapter 30: Weapons in Hand
"Sister Qu, I want to get a few spears, I don't know what way you have?" Lin Xu said.
To be honest, Lin Xu and the others had long wanted to change to a spear. A spear made of a bayonet not only has a much stronger penetrating power than a fire axe, but also has a much larger killing radius than a fire axe. However, the fire axe also has an advantage, that is, it is strong. No matter how you chop, the blade of the axe will not curl.
Qu Jianping nodded, raised the spear in his hand and said, "This spear made of nearly 1 meter bayonet in my hand can't be exchanged by ordinary people, only evolutionaries can be exchanged at the base." It's cheap and only needs some rice to get it. However, if an ordinary person has a firearm, he can exchange one pistol for ten of these spears. β
"Let's go, I'll take you to the exchange office at the base."
Under the leadership of Qu Jianping, the group walked through the outer city made of tents and kept walking towards the county seat. After stepping on the streets of the county seat, they crossed several streets in succession, and everyone came to a storehouse.
There was a sign in front of the storeroom with the words "Equipment Exchange Office" written on it. There was a sentry post at the door, and several soldiers stood on both sides of the door of the storehouse with a slight charge.
βzhanzhuοΌ What's the matter? β
Before entering the door, one of the warriors at the door reached out and made a pause gesture and interrogated.
"Let's exchange some weapons." Qu Jianping explained.
"It's okay to exchange weapons, but you can't get too many people at once, so you can send two representatives." After saying that, the soldier said no more, and stood back with his gun in hand.
Lin Xu thought for a while, turned back to everyone, and said, "Sister Qu and I will go in and have a look, let's wait outside for a while, and we will be back soon." β
After speaking, Lin Xu and Qu Jianping strode into the door of the warehouse.
As soon as he entered the door, Lin Xu saw that there were many equipment in the warehouse, including all kinds of firearms, bayonets, combat uniforms, spears, sabers, grenades, and even individual mortars and bazookas!
Seeing someone come in, a steward with a registration book came over and said, "Both, I don't know what equipment you want to exchange for?" β
Lin Xu took out a cigarette and handed it to him: "Brother, it's a good thing, smoke a cigarette?" β
After the warehouse manager took the cigarette, Lin Xu lit it for him again, and then said, "We came today to exchange some spears, as well as replenish some ammunition and grenades." β
"Oh? Is the little brother an evolutionary? If you're not an evolutionary, the price of exchanging equipment is quite high. "Library pipes.
"Huh...... I'm a new Evolver to the base, and I haven't had time to register yet, but I can prove that I'm an Evolver. β
After speaking, Lin Xu walked towards the bags of sediment piled up at the door of the warehouse. This kind of woven bag filled with sediment has more than 100 catties in one bag.
Lin Xu walked over, stretched out his right hand and grabbed a bag of sediment, and with a little force, he threw this bag of hundreds of catties of sediment three or four meters away!
Seeing that Lin Xu's strength was beyond ordinary people, the treasury manager said directly: "Little brother's strength is not small, he is actually a liliang-type evolutionary, good, this equipment exchange office, little brother can exchange it!" I don't know if you're planning to redeem your contribution points? Or barter, exchanging in goods? β
Lin Xu patted the mud and dust on his hands and said, "I want to barter in exchange for a few spears and some grenades." I don't know how many spears and grenades you can get with a Type 54 pistol and a Type 79 micropunch? β
"Little brother, to tell you the truth, one pistol for ten spears, that's for ordinary people, if it's an evolutionary, you can exchange one pistol for twenty spears." The steward said: "As for the grenade, its value is actually far less than that of a pistol. A pistol can be exchanged for ten grenades, but this thing is more tightly controlled. As for one micro-punch, you can exchange it for three pistols, that is, thirty grenades. β
In fact, the price of grenades is quite cheap, before the end of the world, it was a few dozen dollars a piece, and a bullet was a few cents a piece. Pistols, on the other hand, are much more expensive, in the thousands. However, it is the end of the world, and grenades and bullets are consumables, so their value has naturally increased.
Lin Xu glanced at Qu Jianping, and when he saw her nodding, he said, "Okay, I'll go to the door now to get something to come in and change, and I'll have to prepare 200 grenades and four spears for the eldest brother in charge, so I don't need any bullets." You get your stuff ready, and I'll be right back!" β
After speaking, Lin Xu went out of the warehouse and took the micro charge and pistol on Wu Baoguo's two bodies, plus a micro charge and pistol on his body, and there were a few pistols in the god-given space, which was enough!
When Lin Xu returned to the warehouse, he saw that the warehouse manager was holding three spears, and there were four boxes of grenades on the ground, each containing 50 grenades. Lin Xu handed over the three pistols and five micro punches to the steward, then reached into his backpack and took out two pistols and handed them to him.
"Brother steward, you have a good look, five micro charges, plus five pistols, for 200 grenades." Lin Xu said.
At this time, the steward's eyes cracked with laughter, and he handed the four spears in his hand to Lin Xu and said, "Little brother, you have changed so many grenades at one time, to be honest, you have suffered a lot." After all, a grenade is not as good as a pistol if it kills one or two zombies at most. β
"In this way, little brother, these four spears should be given to you, in addition to these, my brother will give you a few more!"
Lin Xu smiled, nodded and said, "Then Brother Xiexie!" To be honest, this spear really can't stand a few tosses. β
If you have a cheap advantage, you don't take advantage of it, that's idiocy......
While speaking, the steward turned around and took out four spears on the weapon rack, handed them to Lin Xu, and said, "Little brother, if you have any good things in the future, even if you come to my brother, I will definitely give you a fair price!" β
"Definitely, definitely!"
Lin Xu handed the eight spears to Qu Jianping and said, "Sister Qu, please help me take it out and give it to Lao Wu and Lao Xu." β
After handing over the spear to Qu Jianping, Lin Xu picked up two boxes of grenades, and then strode out of the warehouse with a box of grenades in one hand.
"This large base is good, a few useless guns can be exchanged for so many grenades! It's not like a small place like Jiangyang Survival Base, I'm afraid they don't have 100 grenades combined? Lin Xu sighed.
Firearms are a good thing for ordinary people, but for evolutionaries like Lin Xu, ordinary firearms are not even as good as fire axes.
Lin Xu returned to the team, handed two boxes of grenades to Wu Baoguo and Xu Li, and then took out three spears from the hands of the two, one to his father Lin Liqiang, one to Cheng Jianjun, and the remaining one to himself.
"Let's go, Sister Qu, let's go and register. I think the management of this base seems to be pretty good, and we can leave some people in the base. Lin Xu said.
The matter of weapons was settled, and Lin Xu was in a much better mood all of a sudden.
Walking on the street with Qu Jianping, Lin Xu gradually found that the closer to the center of the town, the easier the life of the people, and even many shops appeared, the living conditions of these people looked almost the same as before the end of the world, he said to Qu Jianping suspiciously: "Sister Qu, who are the people living in these places?" How can it be so much better than the tented people outside? β
Qu Jianping frowned and said, "In the town, the houses with poor conditions are still inhabited by ordinary people, but they are a group of people who arrived at the base first, and they also need to work." However, there are some conditions of haode housing, which are inhabited by evolutionaries and their relatives, and these people basically do not need to work, because an evolutionary can provide enough material support for his family. β
"In addition, most of these stores are run by the evolutionary team, and the goods sold in the stores are obtained from the outside world. As for the original things in these shops, they have long been divided up by everyone......"
After thinking about it, Qu Jianping continued: "In fact, ordinary people can also live in houses with better conditions, and there are also ordinary people who have opened shops. However, it's all in exchange for contributions. β
"For example, scientific researchers, senior non-commissioned officers, and so on. Although these people are ordinary people, they can also get a lot of contribution points, which can be exchanged for haode housing, shops, and materials. β
While they were talking, the crowd came to the door of a street office. But now it's not called a neighborhood office, it's called a new person registration office. Only those who have registered have the right to accept tasks and work in the hiring hall.
"You're new here?" Inside the registration office, a female staff member saw someone outside the door and greeted her.
"Yes, we're here to register." Qu Jianping stepped forward and said, "These people were brought in by our team from outside, and they came to do a registration." β
The registrar nodded, "Well, your team sent a representative in, and as for them, the newcomers should come in first." When the one outside sees one coming out inside, one of you comes in. β
Lin Xu and Wu Baoguo walked in first, and Qu Jianping went in to register on behalf of their team.
"Sit there and take a picture first."
After Lin Xu entered, he actually saw a good-looking beauty, sitting in front of the computer to operate, she stretched out her hand and pointed to a stool against the wall.
"It's going to be long, that's the tone, cold ......" Of course, the sentence didn't come out.
Lin Xu sat down as he said and took a picture, it was an electronic camera.
Then, the beautiful woman said to Qu Jianping expressionlessly: "Hand me your ID card." β
When Qu Jianping heard this, he took out a card from his pocket and handed it to her.
Lin Xu glanced at the 'ID card' and found that there were words such as 'XX Club VIP Membership Card' on it......
After the beauty took Qu Jianping's 'ID card', she swiped it on a card reader and said: "Say, name, place of origin, date of birth, what is the previous ID number, if you don't remember the ID number, and you don't have your ID card, we will generate an ID number for you again." β
"Lin Xu, Rong City, XX year X month XX day, ID card XXXXXXXXXXXX"
After Lin Xu finished speaking, the beauty quickly tapped on the keyboard, then took out a blank 'ID card' from a cardboard box, and pressed the enter key on another card reader.
Di Di Di ...... Di Di Di ......
The card reader 'tick tick' sounded a few times, and then the beauty took the 'ID card' off the card reader, put it on the table and said: "Okay, take the ID card yourself, if you are an evolutionary, please go over there to test your evolution ability, next!" β
Lin Xu stepped forward and picked up his 'ID card' and looked at it.
It's actually the 'XX Club VIP Membership Card ......' [Huh...... Just arrived home......]
