Chapter 209: Food is Hard Currency

Zhang Cheng walked in front and helped push open the door.

Once inside, the light inside was not very bright.

Whether it is the light or the style of decoration, it is a bit inclined to the retro log style.

This kind of decoration, let alone in the end times, even before the end of the world, can be regarded as a very good decoration, and the price will not be cheap.

Just looking at this decoration, Nan Ci is more and more sure that this base must have existed before the end of the world.

As soon as he walked in, he didn't take two steps when a waiter in his twenties greeted him.

This waiter is not very handsome, but he has good facial features, is dressed neatly and neatly, has a kind smile on his face, and speaks softly.

Just a look at his face makes people feel very good about him.

I don't know if Zhang Cheng is familiar with him, or if he really knows him, so he greeted him with a smile.

"Two distinguished guests, and you haven't had a quieter seat?"

"Of course, how about the window on the second floor?"

Zhang Cheng didn't answer this time, but turned his head to look at Nan Ci and asked Nan Ci's opinion.

Nan Ci bowed slightly, "Yes!" ”

When the waitress heard this, he led them upstairs.

Along the way, Nan Ci also observed the situation in the store.

Probably because it's not a meal, there aren't many people eating in the store.

There are only two or three tables on the entire first floor, and the seats are relatively scattered, and the lights are dim, not only can you not hear their conversations, but you can't see their faces clearly.

When I came to the second floor, the light was better than the first floor because of the windows.

Sitting on the booth by the window, there is no need to turn on any ambient lights at all, just the light of natural light is enough.

Nan Ci and the old Taoist priest sat down on the same side, and Zhang Cheng stood opposite them with a bent bend and did not sit down immediately.

Seeing that he didn't sit, Nan Ci stretched out his hand and pointed to the seat opposite, "You can also sit down, how can you eat while standing?" ”

"Thank you, beauty."

Zhang Cheng nodded and bowed, and then sat down cautiously.

The waitress stood aside, taking in all of this, but the expression on his face did not change in the slightest, and he did not say a word.

It wasn't until Nan Ci looked at him and asked him for a menu that he handed the menu in his hand to Nan Ci.

The menu is thick and beautiful.

Whether it is the design of the menu or the dishes on it, it is no different from the Sichuan restaurants in the middle and upper grades before the end of the world.

Nan Ci quickly flipped through the menu, ordered three dishes, and gave the menu to the old Taoist priest.

The old Taoist priest turned it over again, added one dish and one soup, three portions of ice powder, and the staple food was rice.

The waiter stood aside and took notes, and didn't leave after taking the menu.

At this time, Zhang Cheng, who had been silent, stood up again, with a cautious smile on his face.

"Beauty, that's the case, the situation is more special now, if you eat, you have to settle the bill first, you see......"

The more Zhang Cheng spoke, the lower his voice became, and the expression on his face was cautious, as if he was afraid that Nan Ci would get angry.

Nan Ci was not angry.

From the moment she entered the door, everything in this store gave Nan Ci a pre-apocalyptic feeling, and even made her doubt the authenticity of the apocalypse.

It wasn't until now that he saw Zhang Cheng's cautious expression and heard him say that he had to settle the bill before eating, that Nan Ci had a feeling that this was indeed the end of the world.

Nan Ci smiled, "It's understandable, I pay the bill with grain." ”

As he spoke, Nan Ci opened the backpack on his side and took out a bag of vacuum-packed Wuchang rice from it.

The five-kilogram pack of rice, the packaging is intact, the date is one year ago, and the shelf life is three years.

This kind of rice, bought in supermarkets or shopping malls before the end of the world, is worth dozens of bags.

Until now, the price estimate is not as simple as multiplying.

Nan Ci obviously noticed that after she took out the bag of rice, the waiter and Zhang Cheng's breathing were a little heavier.

Just from the reaction of the two of them, we know that in this base, such rice is still in demand.

Nan Ci was thinking about it when he heard the waiter say, "Two bags of rice like this are enough for rice."

Although from the moment they entered the door, the waiter's attitude was very good.

But Nan Ci still heard it, and when the man spoke at this time, his voice was more respectful than just now.

There have been so many natural disasters, and there are not a few man-made disasters.

You can still have food in your hand, or pack such quality food like this, and you can see that it is not an ordinary person at a glance.

Maybe it's a powerful person, otherwise it wouldn't be so wealthy.

Such a person, not to say licking, but the attitude is absolutely the best.

For the slight change in the attitude of the waiter, Nan Ci fully accepted it well.

Not to mention in the bedroom, even before the end of the world, such things were common.

It's human nature, and there's no need to worry about it.

Nan Ci took out another bag of rice from his backpack, gave both bags of rice to the waiter, and explained, "Serve the food faster." ”

"Okay, don't worry."

The waiter agreed, and then turned around and left with two bags of rice.

He can obviously carry a bag with one hand, but he wants to hold the rice in his arms, and it can be seen from the way he pops the rice that he treasures these two bags of rice.

Nan Ci only stared at the waiter's back for a few seconds before retracting his gaze.

Only then did I find that Zhang Cheng, who was sitting opposite, was still watching the back of the waiter leaving.

It wasn't until the waiter came down the stairs and the figure disappeared completely that Zhang Cheng turned his head reluctantly and reluctantly.

As soon as he turned his gaze, Zhang Chengcheng directly bumped into Nan Ci's smiling eyes.

Zhang Cheng was obviously taken aback, and the smile on his face was put away, "Beauty, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" I accidentally watched it too much. ”

Nan Ci smiled, "Looks like you like it very much!" I still have rice like thisβ€”"

When Nan Ci said this, he deliberately did not continue to speak, but dragged out the end note.

Zhang Cheng instantly understood, and immediately patted his chest and promised, "Beauty, don't worry!" As long as it is a question you ask, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer. ”

As the old saying goes, money makes the devil grind.

In these last days of hunger and death, food is the absolute hard currency.

In the vast majority of cases, you can basically get what you want by using food as an inducement.

Nan Ci didn't go around in circles anymore, and said directly, "While the food hasn't been served yet, you can tell me the general situation of this base first." ”

Zhang Cheng subconsciously sat up straight, put his hands into fists on his knees, and sat in a regular posture, like a primary school student.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Cheng slowly spoke.

"In fact, there was no base here before, and there were no such houses, just the barren Gobi Desert, and there were no people for hundreds of kilometers......
