Chapter XXXVI Tolls

"My family has no food."

"So you're trying to eat?"

Gu Peihuai nodded.

"Then why do you think I have it here?"

Gu Peihuai didn't expect Qian Yuan to ask like this, paused, and asked, "You have no food?" ”

"I'm surprised, you're lying and don't make drafts? I didn't take any more of the ones I brought back from the warehouse that day, it's only been a few days? It's gone? ”

Qian Yan was a little speechless, the first few times they hoarded food, they were obviously hoarding together, even if she had eaten so much recently, she would not eat them all.

Gu Peihuai seemed to have just realized this.

"Ahem." Cleared his throat with some embarrassment.

"I can help you find supplies, and you can cook."

"Aren't you afraid that I won't give you what I swallowed you?"

"Give it to you if you want." Gu Peihuai didn't care.

"Then why should I cook for you? What's in it for me? ”

Just kidding, she still has to eat her old book every day, if Gu Peihuai also eats, how long will those ready-made ones that she can resist...

And if Gu Peihuai runs out of supplies after a long time, will she still have to be responsible for supporting him?

"There's chaos in this building, and I can guarantee that they won't be able to harass you."

"You're a bit of a boast, how can I believe you?"

"Bang!"

The fire hydrant in the building shattered in response, but Gu Peihuai's punch was really easy, and it seemed to be easy for him.

"Tsk, that's violent."

Qian Yuan raised her eyebrows, she has always recognized Gu Peihuai's strength, although she didn't know where he got this ability, but judging from the previous cooperation, Gu Peihuai's strength is indeed blameless.

"It's not impossible to take care of your food, but I don't need you to settle those troubles for me."

Gu Peihuai was slightly surprised.

"Eat white food?"

"Eat a fart! If you teach me something real, what will you do? I want to protect myself. ”

Although she recognizes Gu Peihuai's skills very much, the most important thing in the last days is that you have strength, and nothing can you rely on for life.

The most trusted object is also yourself, and of course, it is very important for individuals to establish a certain cooperative relationship.

And the best partnership, that must be interests.

"That's it? I also said to be a free bodyguard for you, I'm very expensive. Gu Peihuai's smug expression made Qian Chen want to smoke him.

"No, I can't afford to support you, you should consider what you can teach me."

"You're satisfied."

"Okay, but I have to make it clear, I can cook your food, this is my tuition for class, but you still have to give you what you eat, and I don't take advantage of you, you can eat as much as you want."

If there is, you have to make it clear in advance, otherwise once there is a conflict, the cooperative relationship will soon be disintegrated.

"No problem, then it's time for dinner, I'll go to your house."

"But I also want to tell you in advance, if you really want me to train you, you have to listen to me in this regard, otherwise I can't guarantee that you will learn something." Gu Peihuai said seriously.

"You don't have to worry about it, I don't have a reason to pay the tuition in vain."

Gu Peihuai looked at the ceiling and nodded thoughtfully.

Qianwei raised her hand and shook the bucket in her hand.

Gu Peihuai turned sideways and got out of the way.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, it was slightly warmer outside than in the morning, and there were many people who came down to dig the snow, and most of the men came to dig the snow, and a third of the women came out.

The snow in front of the building had been dug out of a hole, and Qian Wei carried the bucket down the sixth floor, and the windows in the sixth-story corridor had been smashed open, and it was easy for her to get out of the windows of the sixth-story corridor.

When he went downstairs, he didn't see the bad psychotic on the seventh floor and came out to steal the bucket again.

Finding a corner with few people, Qianyuan began to dig hard.

There is not a small amount of water at home, just washing dishes and bathing to use a lot of water, not only is the water stopped, but also the toilet and sewer at home are scrapped, the pipes have all been frozen, obviously it is impossible to use it again...

Although you can take a bath in the space, and there is a water source, Qianyuan has never understood the mechanism of the space, in case the water in the space suddenly runs out one day, she is always right to find someone to cry and stock up on more water.

There were people coming and going in front of the building, and the temperature outside was extremely low, and everyone wanted to dig up some snow quickly at the closest place to the door of the building and go back, causing a large depression in the ground in front of the door.

Lingui City is like spring all year round, and there are not many winter clothes stored at home, and they can't bear the extremely low temperature outside.

Most of the people in the family came at least two people, so that they could take turns to alternate so that they would not be too severely frozen, so most of them were in groups of two or three people, and only a few people came out alone to dig the snow like a thousand people.

But the group of men and women in the middle is very eye-catching.

And most of them are acquaintances, Qin Wen and her group, of course, there are a few more faces, but the Qian Yuan who is standing in the middle and directing a few people to work is a little familiar, but he can't remember who it is for a while.

Qin Wen was wearing a thick brown mink coat and was very high-profile in the crowd, although it was not as warm as Qianyuan's, but this quality was obviously a high-quality material in the last days.

Qian Wei remembered that a few days ago, Qin Wen was still wearing layers of fashion on her body, which looked ridiculous and not warm at all, at least in such weather, it was almost impossible for her to stand here safely.

But the situation of Qin Wen now is completely different from the situation a few days ago...

Thinking of the corpse he encountered in the morning, it seems that Xu Yonghe was stabbed in the leg by her, which has completely lost its value to Qin Wen, as for how he died, Qin Wen hugged whose thigh Qian Yuan was not surprised or interested in at all.

After all, this is her Qin Wen's lifelong learning.

Pleasing men.

She didn't question Qin Wen's ability in this regard at all.

After all, she had seen it in her previous life.

After quickly filling two buckets of snow and sending them back, she lived on the 24th floor, and it was a bit difficult to climb the stairs.

This time, she simply brought four buckets down, wanting to bring more back, after all, it is not easy to climb the building once.

When I was downstairs, I met Lin Yan and Lin's father.

Lin Yan stood in the building and waited to take over the snow dug up by Father Lin.

"Xiao Yan, why did you come down?"

"Chen, you also come to dig snow, I don't worry about Dad, so I'll come down and take a look."

"Well, there's no water at home, come down and dig some, can your legs work?" Qianyuan asked with some concern.

After all, although her fairy water is comparable to a miracle, Lin Yan uses it less after all.

"It's strange to say, my dad said it was a medical miracle, and I was lucky to be able to save my life, but guess what?"

Lin Yan paused, deliberately lowered his voice and said, "The injury on my leg has actually scabbed. ”

Qianqi smiled humbly, "It's okay, it's good, it's good." ”

I still secretly sighed in my heart, it is worthy of her fairy water, and the effect is really powerful!

"Then you take it easy, don't move your muscles again."

"I know, have you forgotten what my family does?" Lin Yan smiled at Qianxi, and gently pushed his elbow against Qianzhen.

"Then I won't tell you, you can just wait here, and I'll go down and dig some snow."

"Hmm," Lin Yan nodded at Qianyan.

When Qianchen began to dig up the snow, there was a lot of commotion at the window on the sixth floor, and the way back was stopped by Qin Wen's group.

Residents who were about to return protested dissatisfiedly below.

"Listen up, the windows on the sixteenth floor were chiseled by a few brothers, we are all civilized people, civilized people must have civilized methods, it's okay for a few brothers to collect some tolls, right?"

The man who spoke was a thin and small man, who looked like he was twenty-six or seventeen, but he looked shrewd, and he was the first to shout.

Qian Wei suddenly remembered that this person seemed to be the property manager in charge of their building, and Qin Wen was coquettish towards him when the supplies were distributed that day, but in the end he was blocked by an aunt.

It seems that he has caught the line of this property steward.

"Why do we pay tolls, we are all owners of this community, and we all have money for the public fee, so you can give it?"

A man stood up and reasoned with the man.

Qin Wen's group of people occupied an advantageous geographical location, and a group of people looked at the people below condescendingly, and the thin man smiled kindly.

"I'm reasoning with you now, if you listen to my reasoning, everyone will be fine, if you don't listen to my reasoning, then I have my own way!"

"Listen, one person, digging a bucket of snow has to pay a bucket of snow toll, otherwise it's cool outside, I'm not in a hurry."

The man raised his voice, and after speaking, someone put a chair behind him, and the man sat on the chair arrogantly with Erlang's legs crossed, looking at the people downstairs with disdain.

"I know this guy, he's the property steward on our property!"

"Why do you charge the owner of a property for no reason?"

"That is, do you live and pay for it, with your salary, can you afford to buy this square meter without eating or drinking for a year?"

"Get out of here, I'm going to go in!"

The crowd shouted and was very dissatisfied with Qin Wen's group, but most of the resentment was sprinkled on the man.

The man seemed to have been poked in the sore spot, and his face no longer had the smirk he had just now, and he had replaced it with a very cruel look.

"Aren't you just a little security guard? I don't believe that you can turn the sky over today! A strong man of more than one meter and eight meters shouted dissatisfied.

With that, the man was about to climb through the window.

"Ahh The man fell back to the ground, a miserable sound resounding on the empty ground, and his body curled up and convulsed on the ground.

"What's going on?"

"How can you hit someone?"

"That's it, young man, you're not authentic, we're all owners?"

"What's wrong with him?"

"No, I was kicked"

Others may not have seen it clearly, or they may not know what it is, but Qian Zhen can see it clearly, they have electric batons in their hands.

Even if the people here are not rich and noble, most of them live in the upper class, where would anyone pay attention to this kind of thing, but Qianchen had dealt with this thing in her previous life, and she also knew how much pain that man suffered.

They are people of the community property, and it is not surprising that they have electric batons in their hands, and it is very important to have good weapons in conditions like the end times.

"I originally thought that the people here were Sven people, and they wanted to solve things in a friendly way, but there were always people who didn't know each other, but Lao Tzu was a Sven person, if he listened to a good word, he honestly paid all the tolls, and there was nothing."

Although there was a lot of discussion in the crowd, no one dared to go up and be the first bird.

Father Lin was in front of Qianwei, already shivering from the cold, not to mention that the old man couldn't stand it, even the young man had to slow down for a while when he stayed back in such weather.

Lin Yan was in a hurry but couldn't help it, and there were many people gathered upstairs, including relatives below, and some who were waiting to dig up snow but didn't dare to come down.

But someone broke the stalemate, and someone jumped from the window with two and a half man-high vats.

The thin man above was a little surprised when he saw Gu Peihuai jumping from the window, but he didn't say anything, after all, someone went down to dig snow before he could collect the toll.

Gradually, some people in the crowd couldn't stand the temperature anymore and finally decided to compromise.

Everyone began to line up to pay the tolls, many people did not have the right tools to dig the snow, let alone enough tools to protect themselves from the cold, so they took pots and pans down to dig, their hands were frozen and stiff, but they had already handed over half of the hard-earned snow.

There were also a few people in the middle who resisted, but without exception, the electric baton in the man's hand stopped them.

Qin Wen sat in the arms of the thin man, looking down at the ants below.

When he glanced at Qianyuan, he whispered something in the man's ear, and noticed that the man's gaze was directed at Qianyuan.

Qian Yuan ignored it and shaved the snow in the snow by herself.

Finally, the four buckets of snow were all filled with a thousand wedges,

There were a lot of people queuing up in front, Father Lin handed over a bucket of snow and had already gone up, Lin Yan looked at Qian Yan with some concern on it, but was dispersed by Qin Wen's group.

Qianyuan doesn't want to cause trouble, but she probably understands in her heart that if you don't make some noise today, you don't want to go back...

"You, come here." The skinny man hooked his finger at Qianchen.

Qian Yuan ignored it, directly chose to ignore it, and still followed the crowd forward.

The man wasn't angry, anyway, Qian Yuan would be in front of the queue sooner or later, and he wasn't in a hurry.

When they reached the front of the line, the little minion next to the man shouted to Qianchen, "You dug four buckets, hand over two buckets!" ”

"You don't have to pay it." The skinny man interrupted the little minions beside him.

Seeing this, the little attendant left Qianyuan and jumped over Qianyuan to collect the toll of the people behind.

"Don't have to pay?" Qianwei put all four buckets of snow on the ground and put her hands in her pockets.

She knew that there were a lot of people and there were weapons in their hands, so she would definitely have no hope of coming hard, but she had a shotgun in her space, and if there was danger, she would take them out to save her life.

"Baby, you say she's your sister?" The thin man lowered his head half a head than Qin Wen, and it was really difficult to stand up and hug Qin Wen's shoulder, and finally put his hand on Qin Wen's waist.

"Well, but she has always disliked me, and this blizzard is because she almost froze me to death outside." Qin Wen said with tears in her eyes.

The man reached out and wiped the tears on Qin Wen's cheeks, "Don't cry, baby, my crying face is broken, I feel distressed." ”

Qin Wen stopped her tears and continued.

"If it weren't for Brother Jia and you to find me this dress, I would definitely freeze to death outside."
