Chapter Thirty-Eight: Changing Rice
"Dangdangdang....." A crisp bell rang, and the small windows on both sides of the alley began to list the price signs, and it was already seven o'clock in the morning, and the black market officially opened.
"AK rifles, priced at a pound of rice, give 200 rounds of ammunition. 3 drums. ”
"Two or two taels of grenades, one for five or two, it's a big sale!"
"Bazooka, two catties of rice, send 5 rockets, half a catty of rice and 3 meters of rockets, buy more and send more!"
“…………..”
Hearing the shouting and selling around him, Shen Chen was stunned, he couldn't imagine that these weapons only needed this little bit of rice, thinking about the rice he spent yesterday, he felt a pang of chagrin in his heart.
On the side, Li Jun's face was also a little ugly, thinking about the few broken knives he bought yesterday, he spent four catties of rice, he really wanted to find a piece of tofu to kill him, and then he thought about his dog-legged knife, I don't know what Brother Shen bought it for, and his face was even more ugly.
"Uncle Sun, why didn't you say yesterday that the weapons here are so cheap, so we spent so much money to buy a few broken knives." Looking at Sun Bairen, who was looking around curiously, Li Jun asked coldly.
Sun Bairen was taken aback by Li Jun's cold tone, and hurriedly explained embarrassedly: "Little Brother Li, it's also my first time here, who knew that the weapons here are so cheap." ”
"Okay Li Jun, it's been spent, and it's useless to complain now." Shen Chen said on the side.
Seeing Shen Chen speak, Li Jun snorted coldly, ignored Sun Bairen, turned his head to look at the weapons on the stalls around him, his eyes gradually became hot, and Sun Bairen wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief.
When Shen Chen and the others were wandering around the shop looking for food, the voice of a bearded man came from behind him.
"Brother Shen?"
The three of them turned their heads to look and saw the bearded man carrying a big bag, standing behind everyone and looking at them with a smile.
"It turned out to be Lao Xu!" Shen Chen looked at the smiling beard and gritted his teeth and said.
Think about the fact that I set such a high price for the broken knife yesterday. Even the old brother didn't call anymore, and directly called Lao Xu.
The bearded man looked embarrassed, even Shen Chen and the others came here, he could understand why everyone looked at him with angry eyes, walked up to them and almost said, "Everyone is here!" Are you here to buy something today? ”
"Lao Xu! You're not authentic! Just a few broken steel grinding weapons to collect so much rice from us, and what kind of good things did my daughter pit me when she was sick! Shen Chen roared angrily, Li Jun was also full of iron, he was cheated on himself, and he didn't want to change it to anyone.
The bearded man touched his nose, a little weak, "Hey~!" I can't help it, my daughter is really sick, I don't want to get some food for her, I'm afraid she won't be able to survive, I have such a daughter left, I can't lose him. After saying that, the bearded man's eyes were a little moist, but his eyes were very determined.
"Okay, don't come to this set, just say how to compensate!" Shen Chen said.
Seeing that Shen Chen was indifferent, the beard stopped pretending, and opened his big bag to reveal the contents and said, "That's it!" This is my own hand-made crossbow, obviously not as powerful as these thermal weapons, when the victory is attacking, the sound is very small, plus the bow and arrow can be recovered, the value is not worse than these thermal weapons, how about I go back and make one for one of you? ”
The three of them looked curiously around the pocket, and saw that there were more than a dozen small hand crossbows inside, the body was carved from wood, the workmanship looked very exquisite, and there were many crossbow arrows made of short steel under the bag, which seemed to have good lethality.
"Alright! But I want five, after all, there are five of us. Shen Chen thought about it in his heart and planned to knock him off.
"This," the bearded man thought down, after all, he had cheated others, and his daughter's body had obviously improved after drinking his milk powder, so he happily agreed: "Okay, so be it!" By the way, what are you doing here, I don't want to buy things empty-handed. ”
Seeing that he agreed, Shen Chen's face softened a lot and said: "That's the case, yesterday we didn't use the rice much, this is not a bit rare in hand, I want to exchange some food here, and buy some weapons for self-defense by the way, the first time I came here outside, I don't know if I am changing." ”
"That's right! It just so happens that I'm going there to deliver the goods too, why don't you come with us?" The bearded man said.
Seeing that the bearded man said this, Shen Chen agreed to come down.
The bearded man walked forward with a big bag on his back, and Shen Chen called Li Jun and them to follow, and followed the bearded man towards a hut with a sign of "Office". When they arrived at the two big men guarding the door, they briefly checked the crowd before they got out of the way and let them in.
"Boss Li, this is a total of ten crossbows you want, you click on it, oh! And this is my friend, who wants to come here to buy something, when the food is not enough, he wants to change it. As soon as he entered the door, the bearded man immediately changed into a smiling appearance and nodded to a middle-aged man sitting on the sofa in the room.
"Well, Xu Keqiang." Boss Li drooped his head and didn't raise his head, and said to the bearded man: "You are an old man here, so you don't need me to remind you of the rules here." ”
"Yes, yes, yes... I know that this friend of mine is absolutely reliable, he just wants to get a few guns to defend himself, and he will never pass on the situation here. The bearded man hurriedly pulled Shen Chen.
Shen Chen hurriedly said, "Yes, Boss Li, please take care of me!" Saying that, Shen Chen walked up to him, quietly took out a cigarette from his arms, and handed it over.
The one called Boss Li moved his nose and looked up to reveal a hideous face, and saw a hideous scar from the left side of his face to his chin.
Seeing the thing in Shen Chen's hand, his eyes smiled, and his smile was even more hideous, and he took the cigarette in Shen Chen's hand.
"Okay, what should you do, just know the rules, I'm very busy." He waved his hand, the bearded man handed over the big bag in his hand to the guards on the side, walked over and pulled Shen Chen, and the group of four turned around and entered an inconspicuous hut next to him.
"Yo~~~ Isn't this Xu Keqiang, another Kaizi is hanging." The bearded man deserves to be an old man here, and as soon as he entered the door, someone teased him.
"Don't talk nonsense, this is a little brother I just met, and I took him to exchange some rice."
"Yo~~ It's really in stock this time!" Behind the counter, a short-haired young man whistled with a smile on his face. "This brother, I'm the person in charge here, I don't know what you're going to exchange for rice?"
"Is it okay to smoke cigarettes?"
"Cigarettes? It's true! Zhao Qiang's expression became excited: "How many cigarettes do you have, I will exchange them for you at the highest price." ”
Shen Chen already knew the value of cigarettes and didn't pay too much attention to his reaction.
