Chapter 34 Trading Markets

Seeing Sun Bairen's appearance, Shen Chen couldn't help but ask, "Uncle Sun, wasn't the refuge camp an air base before?" It stands to reason that there must be a lot of planes here! Wouldn't it be easy to fly to the granary to get food? Will there still be a shortage of food in the camp? ”

"Hey!" Sun Bairen sighed and continued: "You are right, there are planes here, you should have seen the hangar in the center of the camp!" There are quite a few planes in there. But in all this time I've been here, I haven't seen a takeoff.

I heard from others that when the virus broke out, many pilots were infected. After adding the bitten after that, now the number of pilots in the battalion does not exceed twenty, baby that. Once, I overheard two soldiers talking about how they had sent a few helicopters out to scout the zombies at the beginning, but it turned out that they had been attacked by something, so the two helicopters came back, and it was said that they had brought back what had attacked them, and the military had not sent helicopters since then. ”

"Then the military didn't think about the problem of food?" Shen Chen asked curiously.

"I thought about it, they organized it not long ago, they took the opportunity to attract zombies out of the city to rescue refugees, sent more than 300 troops and dozens of armored vehicles, plus the trucks transporting grain, more than 80 vehicles, to the wartime food reserve in W City, but their movement was too big, plus the grain reserve was close to the city center, there were too many zombies around, and the sound of guns and cannons attracted a lot of zombies.

The population of W City is about 5 million, and according to Kyoto, more than 80 percent of the people were infected with the TX virus at the beginning. In addition, those who were later bitten and re-infected, there are at least more than 4 million zombies in the entire W urban area.

Although the army had introduced a large number of zombies into the city before, there were many zombies in the city, so they had to give up the opportunity and retreat back. If you want to grab food again, it will be more difficult than climbing to the sky. ”

Speaking of this, Sun Bairen also lost the interest of continuing to speak, and went back after saying hello. Only Shen Chen was left frowning and thinking.

"No wonder, the withdrawal time of the troops was advanced, and it is estimated that the return of zombies is also related to this operation, but there was no movement in the city at that time? No, I remember that when he was evacuating, he seemed to hear a violent explosion, and Xue Yang said that it was explosives buried near the gymnasium, and now that I think about it, the explosion was still far away from the armored car. Shen Chen listened to Sun Bairen's words and thought, but saw that Sun Bairen, who had already walked into the tent, turned back again.

"Look at my memory!"

Sun Bairen patted his head, "I forgot to tell you that there is a small trading market in the northeast corner of this refuge camp, which was organized by the survivors of the refugee camp.

Since money has now become a waste paper, everyone is now bartering on the principle. You can take what you have and exchange it with others when you get there. ”

Sun Bairen paused when he said this, looked around, leaned into Shen Chen's ear, and whispered mysteriously: "I heard that there is a black market here, where you can buy guns and other things. But all you need is food or gold. Food is now hard currency. ”

After speaking, Sun Bairen left and planned to leave.

Shen Chen looked at his back, thought for a while, and after talking with Sun Bairen, Shen Chen realized that these people were still too young, and they looked at problems from different angles, so they needed someone with rich social experience by their side. He was going to see if he could pull the middle-aged man in front of him down into his team, so he opened his mouth to stop Sun Bairen, who was walking back.

Sun Bairen turned back suspiciously, "What's wrong?" ”

"That's right, Uncle Sun, we are not familiar with this camp, you see if I can hire you as our guide. Of course it's not free, we provide you with a meal of white rice every day, you see! Shen Chen's eyes looked at him sincerely, he planned to get along with him for a while first, and then make a decision, after all, you can't just look at the surface.

Hearing Shen Chen's words, Sun Bairen couldn't believe what he heard, knowing that the salary of a bowl of white rice a day was too tempting. Seeing that Shen Chen didn't seem to be joking, he asked tentatively.

"You're not kidding?"

Shen Chen shook his head and said with a smile: "No kidding, I am very interested in the trading market you said, and I plan to go and see it early tomorrow morning, but we are not very clear about this place, in case someone cheats during the transaction, it will be a big loss." Of course, if you don't have time, we can hire someone else. ”

Sure that Shen Chen was not joking, Sun Bairen looked excited, and hurriedly nodded and said, "I'm free!" Have free time! I don't have anything right now, I just have a lot of time, tomorrow is it! That's it, then I'll go back first. ”

Shen Chen nodded and sent him back with a smile.

Returning to Zhao Xiaoqian's side, he said to them: "You guys go back tonight and think about it, what we lack now, and tomorrow we will go to the trading market to change some back." ”

Turned to Zhao Xiaoqian and said, "You pack up the supplies at night, we all go to the market every day, don't leave the supplies in the tent, if they are stolen, it will be troublesome." ”

Hearing Shen Chen say that he was going to the market, everyone was very excited, and they went back to their tents, this time Li Xue and his brother had a tent, while Zhao Xiaoqian had a tent with Shen Chen.

Back in the tent, Zhao Xiaoqian began to sort out the supplies and stuffed them all into her backpack.

And Shen Chen was watching from the sidelines, and wanted to go up to help, but was glared back by Zhao Xiaoqian, there was no way, Shen Chen had to lie down and sleep.

Early the next morning, Shen Chen and the others got up and found that Sun Bairen was already standing outside their camp, it seemed that he still attached great importance to this job, Shen Chen was not stingy, and asked him to have breakfast together, of course, it was rice porridge, but in this way, Sun Bairen was already satisfied, after all, he usually didn't have breakfast.

After packing up the pots and bowls, led by Sun Bairen, the group walked towards the trading market located in the northeast corner of the camp.
