Volume 1 The Wilderness Chapter 14 The Value of Cerebrospinal Fluid
Ouyang Mu looked sluggish!
He didn't expect that the value of cerebrospinal fluid would be so high!
25 years of fast food!
He didn't dare to imagine that he could fill Base 0?!!
"Hmmm! I'm happy with the price...! ”
He said that he was satisfied, but his heart was full of sorrow.
So many supplies, where to put them?!
There are still five months of supplies on Lao Hei's side and there is no place to put them, and now this is another 25 years, I'm afraid that I won't be able to finish eating and it will be bad soon!
Although fast food has a long shelf life, it can reach up to five years.
But for 25 years, even if he let go of the food, at least half of it would be broken.
Tian Gui obviously saw his sorrow, and his eyes turned to his heart:
"Little friend, there are so many supplies, I'm afraid you don't have a place to store them, right?"
Ouyang Mu nodded, full of helplessness!
Tian Gui smiled slightly, and then said:
"It's better to be like this, if Xiaoyou can trust me Tian, then I recommend you to use a new currency to settle!"
"New Currency?!"
He was stunned!
He knew what currency was, but he had never seen it, and he had always been exposed to bartering since he was a child.
And in the entire base city, the transactions he knows are also barter.
"Yes! New Money! ”
Immediately, Tian Gui explained to Ouyang Mu!
It turns out that this new type of currency is not new, but has been around for decades, and it is issued by the banks of various base cities.
This currency, called the City Currency, is not only circulated in Base 1 City, but also among many Base Cities.
Of course, this kind of mutuality, civilians do not know.
The base city is off-limits to night owls and civilians from entering each other.
One is to protect people's safety, after all, if you enter each other, you need to cross the wilderness, which is a threat to civilians.
Another reason is to prevent the location from being exposed, the mutant beasts of the wilderness are very smart!
And for various reasons, the mutual circulation of money between the bases is only quietly circulated at the top!
Only big families and big companies are circulating, and they have the strength to protect their own safety!
"According to the market price of 20 city dollars = 1kg of fast food, adults can eat 1.5kg of fast food three times a day, which is equivalent to 30 city dollars per day."
With a slight gasp, Tian Gui continued:
"In 25 years, it's 273,750 city dollars!"
After Tian Gui finished speaking, he looked at Ouyang Mu with a smile, Ouyang Mu may not know the value of the money.
"Uh~ Is this much?"
Ouyang Mu was confused on his face, and he was even more confused in his heart!
"Hmmm! A small villa with a yard in the East District is worth about 20,000 city dollars! You can buy about thirteen villas! ”
Ignoring Ouyang Mu's surprised expression, he continued to smile:
"And the salary of a slave in the West District for a year is probably worth more than 600 city dollars! They have to earn three hundred and ninety years of this money! ”
"You say... Not much?!! ”
Ouyang Mu's expression at this time was very cute.
The mouth is big, can put a chicken, and the eyes are round and clear, but the scar is slightly hideous.
He really didn't expect that cerebrospinal fluid is so expensive now!
Ouyang Mu is not stupid, since the currency is so easy to use, he naturally chooses to come conveniently, so he said:
"Good! Then please ask the shopkeeper Tian to help me convert it into city currency! ”
"Okay! Stay for a while, I'll come when I go! ”
After Tian Gui finished speaking, he hurriedly walked out, thinking that he was going to withdraw money!
Soon, Tian Gui arrived, holding a step of money and a card in his hand.
Ouyang Mu looked at it suspiciously!
"This card is a memory card issued by the Bank of the Base City, and it contains 273,000 whole city coins!"
As he spoke, he handed the card to Ouyang Mu.
Ouyang Mu looked surprised, this thing is worth more than a dozen villas?!!
At this time, Tian Gui handed the pile of paper-like objects to Ouyang Mu.
"This is 750 city dollars in cash, enough for you to use for a period of time, and you can use the money to take this card directly to the base city bank to withdraw it in the future!"
Ouyang Mu smiled and accepted the card, which felt smooth to the touch.
The words "Base City Bank" are printed on it, and on both sides are some bells and whistles, and a golden orchid stands out.
After putting away the cards and money, Ouyang Mu arched his hand to Tian Gui:
"Now that the matter is done, let's go back first!"
After a few polite words to each other, the two of them took their leave.
It's just that when Ouyang Mu went out, Tian Gui said more:
"Little friend, if there's something you can't solve, you can still come here to find me! After all, you're my guest now! ”
Obviously, the last sentence was deliberately said in order to cover up the previous words!
Ouyang Mu was stunned when he heard this, and he was a little nervous:
"Oh? Why? Is something going to happen? ”
Tian Gui didn't elaborate, he wasn't sure about the purpose of the cold man, his face was full of smiles, and he smiled at the nervous Ouyang Mu and said:
"Nothing! Don't worry! It's just a word of entrustment! ”
Ouyang Mu nodded and left with doubts.
Tian Gui looked at Ouyang Mu's back, then looked at the bottle in his hand, and after pondering for a moment, he spoke slightly:
"Come out!"
As the words fell, a figure appeared in a corner of the courtyard, and the whole figure seemed to blend into the shadows.
"Follow him, report anything unusual at any time! Hmm~ Don't let him know just yet! ”
It's not that he has different intentions for Ouyang Mu, he is just curious and protective, and the protection of Ouyang Mu is also the protection of himself.
The man in the shadows didn't speak, just looked at his movements as if he was nodding, and then the figure disappeared in a flash!
If Ouyang Mu saw this scene, he would definitely be shocked, this person's speed and body skills far surpassed him!
……
On the way back, Ouyang Mu's happy mood was obvious, and he saw the corners of his mouth rising and his expression rippling.
Also, the first time I saw so much money when I was so old, it was my own money.
25 years! It's enough to eat lying down!
Imagining the life of lying down, I laughed happily, and my spirit was obviously relaxed.
So he didn't notice that a car was following closely behind him.
Instead of going straight home, I drove to the base city bank.
This is an independent duplex building, and the first floor is a huge hall, which is full of people at this time, so it is not lively!
Further up is the residential floor, thinking that it is the home of the bank staff, Ouyang Mu was slightly envious for a while, and then went straight to the counter!
Seeing someone coming, the female staff behind the counter raised her head, and the figure in front of her made her look at him more.
The slightly old but complete black combat uniform, the capable short hair, the bright eyes full of smiles, and a terrifying scar on the face made the young face much more heroic and handsome.
"Hello sir! What kind of business do you handle? ”
Ouyang Mu handed over the card and said in a gentle tone:
"Help me find out how much money is in it?!"
The female teller smiled back:
"Okay! Wait! ”
The card is anonymous, but when the staff saw a small golden orchid on the face of the card, they were deeply shocked.
So when I saw the amount inside, I was not surprised.
"Dear co-branded card customers, your balance is...!"
After checking that it was correct, Ouyang Mu took back the card satisfied, but he wondered why he was called a co-branded card customer.
After thanking him, Ouyang Mu got up and left, and the female teller looked at him with a slightly lost look.
It wasn't until Ouyang Mu's figure disappeared that she withdrew her gaze, which couldn't help but provoke a burst of laughter from her colleagues.
When I went out, I felt a little quiet on the street.
It was noon, and although it was still night, the habits that had been passed down had not changed.
I think it's because it's noon, and people are eating at home.
Without thinking about it anymore, Ouyang Mu walked straight to the car.
The little guy has been staying in the car, and now that he is about to open his eyes, Ouyang Mu will not leave an inch.
"Little one, it's time to eat!"
Ouyang Mu was puzzled, and it was already noon, but the little saber-toothed tiger did not call hungry.
Hearing his call, the little one did not go to eat, but turned his head in a certain direction outside the car, calling from time to time.
Ouyang Mu was puzzled, remembering the performance of the little guy when he came back from the wilderness, it was obviously born with special perception.
So I looked at the little one, and the street was empty at this time, except for an unturned car on the side of the road in the distance, parked alone under the street lamp.
Ouyang Mu glanced at it a few times and didn't find anything abnormal, so he didn't care, just regarded it as a passerby.
Drive away immediately.
But he found that the car had been following in the time that followed.
My heart moved, who was following me?
When I think of the cerebrospinal fluid I sold, I can't help but feel a chill in my heart!
"Could it be Boss Natian...?"
I secretly doubted in my heart, and the accelerator under my feet was constantly getting heavier, but my eyes looked at the rearview mirror from time to time, and the car kept following me.
Ouyang Mu drove the car to the border of the Western District, but he didn't dare to drive home directly.
Judging by this person's behavior, the purpose must not be good.
He also has two bottles of cerebrospinal fluid and a very precious and rare black bead at home, which must not be exposed.
Thinking so, the car has already driven into the residential area of the West End.
As his speed gradually increased, the cars behind him also accelerated significantly.
Ouyang Mu narrowed his eyes.
With a fierce look, he turned to the suburbs, where it is still an undeveloped wasteland.
There are many of these wastelands scattered around the base city, which are leftover corners of urban construction and have no need to be developed.
Many geothermal power plants are built between such wastelands, which can be used for waste purposes without taking up the limited space in the city.
After a bumpy ride, he finally got behind a low slope.
Ouyang Mu turned off the fire and locked the car, and walked down with the broken sword.
The wasteland is close to the boundary wall of the base city, and the wasteland is full of dirt slopes of varying heights, apparently left behind after the original excavation.
Huge steel pillars of hugging each other and standing close to the walls of the boundary wall, and it was they that supported the huge and heavy zenith of the base city.
Ouyang Mu hid behind a steel pillar and watched quietly, the darkness hid his figure almost invisible!
This wasteland is nearly a kilometer in circumference, and the shallow pits on the soil slope constitute uneven obstacles, making it impossible for people to see the end at a glance, which provides a good hiding place for Ouyang Mu.
A short time later, at the end of the street in the distance, under the dim light, a car slowly drove by.
