Chapter 40:
Liu Chichi ate the tomatoes in his hand unhurriedly, squinting his eyes with enjoyment, and the movements of the family of three were synchronized, as if they were printed from a mold.
After thinking about it for a long time, Liu Chichi replied with interest: "Okay, what are you going to use in exchange?"
The other party was immediately unhappy when he heard that he wanted to exchange something. After all, in the inherent concept, water is not a valuable commodity. It is not Liu Chichi's style to be taken advantage of by others, so the relationship between plastic neighbors broke down like this.
During the debate between the two sides, another person joined in. The family urgently needed water, and they couldn't get energy beads to rent a wooden house. It was barely acceptable to exchange supplies for some water.
In the end, two families exchanged a whole set of kitchen utensils and two empty beds for several buckets of water.
Seeing that all kinds of materials were filled into the originally empty and simple wooden house, making the wooden house more and more like a decent home, the three members of the Liu family were very happy.
Liu Le is even more motivated, secretly determined that he must harvest more than 10 energy beads in the afternoon, and then he can pay the monthly rent for this wooden house!
With a stable home, you have the motivation to continue working hard. If you have no fixed place to live, you will definitely have no intention of building.
In the past two days, a large number of survivors who defected to relatives and friends entered the Yamu villa area, but not all those who successfully entered the villa area could live safely.
When some homeowners first heard that their relatives and friends were coming, their excitement prevailed, and they were naturally willing to invite people to sit at home and chat with each other about their experiences. If a common relative or friend died, they would cry together.
But after the emotional catharsis, the real problem fell down. Now there is only consumption but no income, and no one dares to say that they have enough surplus food to feed their relatives and friends.
Especially some rich and noble families have many relatives and friends, many of them have already come to join them, and there are newcomers coming in a steady stream, how can they support so many people?
As a result, some people were kicked out of relatives and friends' homes.
After experiencing the safety of the Yamu villa area, the survivors were naturally reluctant to leave. They turned their eyes around and focused on Liu Chichi's family.
After sending away the people who exchanged supplies for water, Liu Chichi used the newly obtained knives and the pot he obtained yesterday to randomly fry a tomato and cabbage, and mixed it with rice to make fried rice. It was the first mouthful of hot rice in the day, and the family of three ate with their bowls in their arms, tears filled their eyes.
"Mom, is your craft getting better, or am I starving because I haven't eaten for too long? How can I
Why do you think your meal is particularly delicious today? "
Liu Le gave a vague admiration while slurping the rice. He felt that today's fried rice was particularly delicious. The rice had the aroma of rice, and the tomatoes and cabbage each had their own aroma. When I was a wealthy young man, the food I ate in five-star hotels was even more delicious.
Hearing this, Liu Chichi slapped his son without hesitation, and then boasted proudly: "Your mother, although I haven't cooked for more than ten years, I haven't lost my skills. That's how good I am."
On the contrary, Liu Daowei said straightforwardly and fairly: "I think this delicious meal is mainly due to the good ingredients. This rice and this dish are delicious in themselves. The tomato that was eaten raw before is fragrant and sweet. The fried dish is really delicious. It's also delicious."
Liu Le nodded repeatedly in agreement, and Liu Chichi glared at the father and son angrily, but Liu Le, who was satisfied with his stomach, no longer cared about his mother's sharp eyes, and all he could think about was collecting more energy beads in the afternoon.
After eating, the family of three heard someone knocking on the door outside. Liu Daowei went out to have a look. There were more than ten people gathered outside the door. The person standing at the front was holding a 10-jin bag of flour in his arms. Said with a bitter face:Finnd new chapters at novelhall.com
"Old Liu, our family was kicked out by my elder brother's house, and now we have nowhere to go. With our relationship, I beg you, you must promise me. I want to exchange this bag of flour for you." That energy bead thing also wants to live next door to you."
Liu Daowei saw that it was his business partner Lao Qi who had a sad face. It has long been heard that the two brothers of the Qi family are not on good terms. It is just that the old man of the Qi family was still there and kept suppressing the two brothers and did not dare to bring up the conflict. Get out.
Thinking of the three members of his family who were also kicked out of the house, Liu Daowei sympathized with him and expressed deep sympathy. He really wanted to nod his head in agreement, but his son had all the energy beads at home, so he had to call out his son Liu Le.
Everyone saw that Liu Le had already put on his armor as he walked out, as if he was about to go out to kill zombies immediately. In fact, Liu Le also urged his father to hurry up and change his equipment, and then he himself said to Lao Qi:
"Uncle Qi, for your flour, I can exchange 3 energy beads for you, or lend you a set of full-body armor and a sword, and then we will go out to kill zombies together. As for how many energy beads you can get, it all depends on you."
Liu Le gave multiple choice questions, but Lao Qi looked at Liu Le's full body armor, shook his head again and again, gritted his teeth, and flattered Liu Le:
"Xiao Le, Uncle Qi
I watched you grow up, and you also know that Uncle Qi has old arms and legs, how can he get out of the house? This is the energy bead, can you give me more? Why do you have to give 5 pieces? "
Liu Le was not happy anymore, and pointed to the grain and vegetable store not far away, "I can buy 9 catties with 3 grains there, why should I buy you 10 catties with 5 grains?"
Liu Le's words were too blunt, which made Lao Qi's face a little ugly. He forced a smile and continued to flatter him: "Who knows if that thing can be eaten, it's safe in Uncle Qi's hands."
But after thinking about the end of the world, there is nothing unacceptable.
Back at He's house, the excitement in the manor was even higher today, and even the big restaurant on the first floor couldn't even fit in.
In addition to the three newly arrived employees of the He family, Zhang Chenming also recruited five subordinates in the past two days, and promised to **** him to the next county. In addition, the Gu family planned to have another meal before the cooperation ended. Finally, the small house on the second floor of the villa The restaurant was also opened, He Qianshan, Song Xingcheng, Zheng Nianhao, Han Qinmin and other close team members and Zhang Chenming, Gu Siyue and other important guests went to the second floor for lunch.
Fortunately, Liu Shan, Lan Yuxin and others finished their work early today, and went back to the manor early to help prepare lunch together. The ten or so survivors who entered the He Family Manor hadn't eaten a full meal for many days. Not only were they full, but they also ate themselves up.
After lunch, everyone gathered in the lobby on the first floor.
The cooperation between He Qianshan and the Gu family to collect supplies has temporarily come to an end, so the Gu family expressed the hope that they could exchange a cart of medicines that belonged to them and He Qianshan for some food, survival supplies, and weapons.
After the two parties negotiated the exchange rate, only two of the three trucks full of medicines originally distributed to the Gu family were driven away.
The exchange ratio He Qianshan gave was not high, because after hoarding a lot of medicines, these were not urgently needed for him.
Although the Gu family is a pity, they are not too entangled. The cooperation between the two still depends on the long-term, and there is no need to collapse at the beginning.
Then Zhang Chenming said that he also wanted to change some weapons. He wanted to try to take people out to collect supplies by himself, so as to exercise the team's ability to cooperate.
Today's He Family Manor and the warehouse by the lake are full of supplies, and He Qianshan has discovered the industrial zone again, so it is not necessary to go to the Zhang Family's supermarket.
In addition, the remaining supermarkets are either in the central city or in further urban areas, so it would be a pity not to go there.
However, Zhang Chenming still took advantage of the time when He Qianshan went upstairs to pick up weapons, and wrote down the addresses and conditions of the remaining supermarkets in his family in detail and left them to He Qianshan. The men left.
Among the materials brought back by the two parties previously, the materials belonging to Zhang Chenming have been piled up in the Hejia Manor and have not been taken away. Zhang Chenming said that he will take his men to eat in Hejia Manor.
The funds can be directly deducted from his list.
People from the Gu family and the Zhang family left one after another, and the rest were from the He family's team.
Including the nine newcomers from the three families today, there are now nearly 40 people in the He Family Manor. He Qianshan simply took this opportunity to clarify the rules of the team.
First of all, the team members who work for him will be given full board and lodging.
Those who stay and work in the villa area can get 1 energy bead as a reward in addition to board and lodging every day.
For those who go out to collect materials, the obtained energy beads will be handed in uniformly every night, and the reward is one-fifth of the energy beads that can be kept by themselves.
Of course, whether it is the team going out or the personnel staying behind, the biggest requirement is to obey orders.
Everyone had no objection, even the new three families agreed, providing board and lodging is an excellent post-apocalyptic job treatment, not to mention the kindness of the He family can be seen from the richness and deliciousness of each meal.
Song Xingcheng was probably the only one who was depressed. After hearing that only one-fifth of the energy beads collected when going out were left, Song Xingcheng immediately glanced at the surrounding teammates with resentment.
In the beginning, He Qianshan didn't ask the team members who went out to turn in the collected energy beads. The other team members didn't want to keep them and turn them in. Well, now He Qianshan directly asked to turn them in.
However, it was just regrettable, Song Xingcheng didn't think there was anything wrong with He Qianshan's actions. After all, the prerequisite for them to obtain a large amount of energy beads was that He Qianshan provided weapons.
It's fine if people didn't mention it before, but now that it was mentioned, Song Xingcheng didn't plan to disobey it, but when he thought that he could only leave a pitiful one-fifth of the energy beads, he felt a faint heartache.
After briefly clarifying the rules of the team, He Qianshan raised his hand to indicate that everyone can leave, and it is time to rest. After all, there is still action in the afternoon.
Zheng Nianhao accompanied the three new families to settle down, understanding their situation on behalf of He Qianshan, and comforting them. He Qianshan took Song Xingcheng upstairs together.
When Song Xingcheng was about to go back to his room, He Qianshan stopped him. He Qianshan waved his hand, and Song Xingcheng followed into He Qianshan's room suspiciously.
