    Guan Yue looked at Lu Qingtang who came out of the door, and heaved a sigh of relief. He Ruoshui, mother and son, had been tested before, so they were let in directly from the door. Now that everyone is finally together, Guan Yue felt a little uncomfortable. Cha, "No wonder the team moves so slowly. It turns out that there is also a cross-examination session here. The one in it should be proficient in psychology."

    An Zhongshi nodded, "But it doesn't look like someone who has really experienced the end of the world. They should be well protected, so they can't find anything wrong." Especially when their acting skills are really strong.

    Even Lu Qingtang kept it a secret, so it can be seen that the man inside still doesn't have any insight into the really powerful characters. They all meet up, and the first thing to do now is to find a place to stay.

    At this time, a soldier came over and said to Guan Yue: "Our base is going to take your car away, and of course it's not for nothing. There are food tickets for 30 cakes here. Please accept them. The base is in short supply now." Che, I hope you can cooperate."

    Guan Yue took it over, and he saw how big a piece of pancake was. Not far away, there was a person holding a piece of pancake that was bigger than his face and about the thickness of his thumb, and shared it with others. If Zhang Bing's meal ticket is saved, it can almost support two people for a whole month, which is not a bad salary.

    That kind of flatbread was also eaten by Guan Yue in his previous life. It was very unpalatable. It was made by mixing a certain amount of chaff and corn together with the inner cores into powder. It was unpalatable to death. It is hard and dry. Of course, if you eat it, you can satisfy your hunger, but it can't provide enough nutrition at all. However, this can be regarded as a major manifestation of food shortage in the last days.

    Guan Yue collected the 30-chapter food ticket, and led An Zhongshi and the others slowly walked inside. Generally speaking, this place is not bad, but after looking carefully, you can still find that there are many thin people in the corner, doing nothing there.

    They are all unable to accept people who were elites before the apocalypse and are now reduced to physical labor. If such people cannot quickly adapt to the apocalypse, they will starve to death sooner or later. Guan Yue is actually not very familiar with this place, after all, he is familiar with the J city base It is the base after being abandoned by Xia Yi. Although some places can still see what it will look like in the future, it is really unfamiliar now.

    Soon someone came to rescue them. A man in his twenties or thirties came over. Although his complexion was not good, he was clean. He came up and said flatteringly: "You guys just came City base, I don’t know if you want to find a place to live, I am very familiar with this J city base, feel free to ask me any questions.”

    Guan Yue took a pack of biscuits from his bag and handed it over. There were four biscuits in this small bag, which was not bad. After taking it, the man quickly hid it in his pocket, and looked around nervously.

    Guan Yue said, "I'll give you five packs after our business is over."

    "Ok, ok, ok!!" The man agreed again and again, "Those guys are looking for a place to live, right?"

    Guan Yue nodded, "That's right, what's the situation where you live here, please explain to us in detail, and one of my companions has a broken leg and needs treatment now, do you know where I can get it?"

    He cleared his throat, "It's easy to find a place to live. There are recognized crystal nuclei in the base here, which is the kind of crystal nuclei in the heads of zombies. You can exchange three food tickets for one crystal nucleus in the trading hall. The medium-sized places range from 20 to 40 square meters. Depending on the location, you receive 10 to 20 food tickets a month. The better ones are more than 50 square meters, about 100 square meters. , 30 to 50 food tickets depending on the location in one month, and of course the best villas, 90 food tickets a month, which is equivalent to 30 crystal nuclei. I heard that going outside The zombie killers will admit what they said."

    "It is said that it is very difficult to kill a zombie. Thirty crystal nuclei are equivalent to all the gains they have gained once they went out to risk their lives. Therefore, only those with high status can afford to live in a villa now. You..."

    Guan Yue thought about it, he and An Zhongshi needed a room, Xu Zhenjiang lived with Sun Qixi, it was fine for Lu Qingtang and He Ruoshui to sleep together and help look after the children, it was fine for He Lanfeng to live in the same room with Gao Ming Care nearby.

    In this way, they need a house with at least four rooms. He rolled his eyes and said: "We need a house with at least four rooms. You can see where it is suitable. Take us there first, and we will collect crystal nuclei and food tickets over there." Is it all right?"

    "Yes, yes!!" The man realized at this time that he is a powerful person at the stall. He must not have many food tickets when he came to the base just now, which means that what they used to trade must be crystal cores. If you want a house of more than 100 square meters, there must be many crystal nuclei. People who can have so many crystal nuclei must be very powerful.

    "Then come with me. You guys go to see the house with me first. After you decide, I'll take you to the trading hall to sign the contract and pay the rent. Go this way." The man led the way, although Guan Yue just promised Give four more packs, but if he works hard, he might be able to get more. In this way, there will be a lot of goods received today, and even biscuits are a rare commodity now.

    Such a pack of biscuits can be exchanged for a food ticket, which can give him a day's rations, which must be very good! He was happy in his heart, so he did his best to Guan Yue and the others. After walking forward for about twenty minutes, they arrived at a residential building with about fifty or sixty floors. Worked hard.

    The man said: "All the houses in this building are more than 100 square meters, with at least four rooms, and there are larger ones of 120 to 150 square meters, which are specially rented to the team, but the price is relatively expensive. "

    There is a room next to the entrance at the bottom of the building. When they reached the door, they came out of that small room, "Are you bringing someone here again? I'll follow you, don't worry about me"

    "Take us to see the five rooms." Guan Yue asked him to lead the way, and the man led them in. There is an elevator here, and it probably didn't stop until the twenty-sixth floor. Could it be that all the rooms below are rented out?

    "All the rooms below the 20th floor have four rooms, the 21st to 40th floors have five rooms, the 41st to 60th have more rooms, and the 21st to 5th floors have been rented. After going out, there are still rooms on the twenty-sixth floor, here you can’t decide which room to rent, they all come in order, you just come to the Xiangyang room, come and have a look.”

    The man led them to the door of No. 2601, and the silent man who had been following them walked up to open the door with a key, and then retreated silently to the end, "Please come in, everyone, although there are few things inside. A bit, but there are still a lot of decorations that should be done. The wall sockets, especially the toilets, still have water, but the water is the water in the river that is quoted. It can only be used to flush the toilet and wipe the body, absolutely not For drinking, there is no water in the kitchen. If you need water, you must pay a crystal nucleus or a food ticket, and it is rationed every month. Of course, you can also prepare drinking water yourself, which is not mandatory. "

    Guan Yue took a look, the living room is relatively small, but the five rooms are not bad, much better than the other houses he lived in before the end of the world, "Let's just go here, how many crystal nuclei a month?"

    The man rubbed his hands and said, "This house needs sixty-five food tickets a month. If you pay with crystal cores, you only need twenty-one. Twenty-one is equivalent to sixty-three food tickets. , and two tickets cheaper."

    Guan Yue is fine, "Then it's settled, I'll sign the contract with you, and my companions will let them stay here, especially if there is another injured one, it can't be too tired, is it okay?"

    "No problem, no problem!! Come with me..." The man handed over to the person who opened the door just now, and the doorkeeper watched here, and when they came back after signing the contract, he handed over the key to them.

    Guan Yue left An Zhongshi here, and went to sign the contract by himself. On the way, the man also said something, "As for the rent of the house, if you only rent it for one month, it costs twenty-one crystal nuclei. If you rent for one season, which means three months, you will only receive fifty-five crystal nuclei, which is a full eight less. If it's a year, it's..."

    "Okay, let me think about it, we don't have a lot of crystal nuclei in our hands now, and we can rent them for three months at most. If there are 100 crystal nuclei... we can't use them all to pay the rent, right? "

    The man smiled awkwardly, "That's right." Although these people are very powerful, it is obviously impossible to take out more than a hundred crystal nuclei at once. He was too complacent just now, so of course he successfully introduced A tenant, he can also get a share, a food ticket for a month, and three food tickets for three months, plus the biscuits that this person will give him later, this trip down The rations for half a month have been settled, which is not bad, but he is lucky.

    The trading hall refers to the hall, but it is actually a building with about ten floors. It should be called the trading building to be more accurate, but the people who come and go here are obviously all active in the hall on the first floor, so it is understandable to call it the hall.

    The floor area of ​​the building is more than four or five times larger than that of the residential building just now. There are many counters around the entire first floor, and the flow of people is also very large. Although it is not densely packed, it is still very noisy and there are many people.

    The man took him to the counter at the renting house to sign the contract. Guan Yue held a thin piece of paper, "Is this really useful?"

    "Don't worry about that. This trading hall was jointly established by the four major families of our base in J City. As long as there is this seal on this paper, it will be useful! There will never be any problems."

    Guan Yue dubiously took out fifty-five crystal nuclei, these are the energy-turbid crystal nuclei that existed in the space before, and they were used as currency when they came to the base in J City, but they did not expect that they could be used.

    "Okay, I will accept fifty-five crystal nuclei from you, and the house will belong to you in the next three months. If you want to renew the lease after three months, you can come here to renew the lease, and we will give priority to continue renting." For you."

    Guan Yue nodded to the woman standing inside the counter, put away the contract and turned to leave, the man followed behind, and they quickly returned to the house just now, there were indeed too few things in this room, only simple There are a few chairs and a table, and only a bed is placed in the room, and there is not even a cabinet.

    But they didn't plan to stay here for a long time, so there was no need to get furniture. Guan Yue took out four packs of biscuits from his bag and gave them to him, which was promised before, and then took out two bottles of water and said, "Help me find the biscuits." Where his leg can be healed, these two bottles of water are yours, I keep what I say, and I can't give it to you now." He put the water away again.

    The man followed the two bottles of water eagerly. Although it was just ordinary mineral water, this bottle of water was worth five food tickets, which was more valuable than one crystal nucleus. If he really got it, Of course it would be best.

    "Okay, okay, I'll take you there right away. The level of medical treatment there is definitely the best around here! There is absolutely no problem in treating fractures, but of course the fees are more expensive." The man hesitated.

    Guan Yue waved his hand, "Charging is not a problem, you take me there first to have a look, if there is no problem, then let's do it."

    "Okay, let's go..." The man couldn't wait to get the two bottles of water, so he tried his best to recommend the best medical equipment in the vicinity, and the doctors are also very good. place.

    This time they walked straight inside along the big path, and they saw a commercial street in about ten minutes... Yes, this is indeed a commercial street. There are shops on both sides of the street, and there are all kinds of shops in it. Of course, as long as there are crystal nuclei Or if it is a food ticket, then all the things here can be moved back. The man took him to the innermost and largest store. This store is twice the size of all the previous stores, which means it occupies two stores. " That's it."

    Guan Yue pushed the door open and went in to have a look. There was a counter in front of him, "Sir, what kind of injury do you want to heal?"

    He asked, "Can you completely cure a broken leg here?" This was not difficult before the end of the world, but now... even if there are good doctors and equipment, it is still difficult to do without medicinal materials.

    "It depends on whether the fracture is serious or not. It needs about 50 to 100 crystal nuclei. Of course, we only charge crystal nuclei, and this is just a simple operation fee. Medicines and other things are calculated separately. If you recover well If it's good, it's about 300 crystal nuclei, I don't know this gentleman..." The woman's expression was still a perfect smile, and she didn't look down on anyone for any reason.

    Guan Yue nodded, "Okay, crystal nuclei are not a problem, as long as you can cure my companion, I will go back first and bring him over later, you guys prepare everything needed for the operation, these fifty crystal nuclei will When it’s my deposit, I’ll come over and hope you’re ready, and I’ll come with my companions in about forty minutes.”

    When the woman saw the crystal nucleus, she immediately became more courteous, "Okay, sir, we will prepare right away."

    Guan Yue turned around and left the shop, looked at the people following him, and said, "It's really good there." Not only is the hygiene very good, but the attitude of the people is very good, even the equipment inside is only found in some big hospitals. Yes, there are also those complete medicines behind the bulletproof glass, and the men with guns standing around. This must have been done by one of the four major families, or they were jointly run. , all in all, this time will definitely attract their attention.

    But now that He Ruoshui and his son have been included in the team, they must be responsible for them, especially He Lanfeng... who has the same symptoms as An Zhongshi. expected.

    A powerful ability user is enough for him to exchange for a big price.

    They left slowly, not knowing that many people in that small hospital were surprised.

    "Is it really fifty crystal nuclei? Let me see and see!"

    Everyone gathered around the counter, the woman poured out the crystal nuclei from a small bag, and everyone counted them one by one, and it was indeed fifty, no more, no less, "I originally thought that such an expensive price would be nothing at all. No one will come, I didn't expect that this door-to-door would be a big deal, just now he said to go back and bring the injured, you hurry up and prepare!"

    "Yes! Proprietress..." Everyone went to prepare for their work. Of course, there must be a surgeon who has performed surgery for more than ten years. Of course, such a small fracture is nothing to worry about, let alone The facilities here are complete, and there are not many shortages of medicines. He is confident that he can heal people in a short time.

    Guan Yue went back to the previous house and directly brought him two bottles of water. The man took the water and left immediately. Of course, he hid the water so well that he couldn't see it at all. This time he made a fortune. Er obviously can ask any question, but this time he took advantage of it. Two bottles of water are ten food tickets, a total of ten!

    He walked very carefully along the way. Of course, his performance would not be very obvious. If it was too obvious, he would definitely be noticed by others. Only when he arrived at the trading floor did he slowly breathe a sigh of relief. A row of doors, open one of the doors and go in, and leave within a few minutes, five packs of biscuits, five food tickets, two bottles of water, a total of ten food tickets, a total of fifteen food tickets, the mineral water is unopened After all, there are a lot of minerals in it, and the water provided in the base is distilled water made by the so-called water-type superpowers or the laboratory. It is pure H2O, nothing, a food ticket It can be exchanged for half a liter, which is of course more cost-effective than directly drinking mineral water, although it is not nutritious.

    But now it is not easy to be able to eat and drink. How can he manage what is nutritious? With the fifteen chapter food ticket in his arms, he feels more at ease. Other things may not be found if they are robbed, but The food ticket is the currency certificate issued by the base. Someone snatched it before, but it was found and thrown out of the base.

    Since then, no one has dared to snatch food tickets directly. It is the food that is easy to be robbed and eaten directly after being robbed. In this way, even if others find it, they will refuse to admit it.

    Over time, the base only recognizes food tickets as a transaction currency, and basically everyone regards their own food very well.

    Guan Yue looked at them and said, "Lu Qingtang, go and help He Ruoshui wipe it and clean it a little bit, Gao Ming, go and help He Lanfeng, and you two will sleep in the same room later, now is just a good time to get acquainted."

    Gao Ming didn't have any objections, so he easily picked up He Lanfeng and carried him to the room allocated to the two of them, took some clothes out and put them aside, then took the washbasin to the toilet to get a basin of water, Wipe him with a towel, of course, first strip off his dirty and smelly rotten clothes and throw them away, and then slowly dress him after he is roughly wiped clean, because the legs need to be cleaned. He was having an operation, so he was wearing mid-length trousers. It's still a bit hot outside in broad daylight, so there's no problem with wrapping a piece of clothing outside later. "Does your leg hurt? It hasn't been wiped clean yet..."

    "But it's okay. When you get to the hospital, Lifetime there will definitely help you clean and then operate. Your mother's side should also be fine. I'll take you out." Gao Ming said, hugging the new clothes The skinny little boy walked out of the room, and He Ruoshui had already washed it briefly, and everyone went out together, and if they were carrying before, they were stored in Guan Yue's space.

    It took more than half an hour to find the small hospital along the road just now, "How is it? Is everything ready?" Guan Yue just walked in and saw the woman who received him just now.

    "Please don't worry, sir. We have prepared everything. The wounded who need to be treated should be placed on the operating table in this operating room. Our doctors will definitely do their best." Her attitude was very good.

    Gao Ming carried He Lanfeng into the operating room and put him on the operating table, "Should I go out?"

    He stood aside wearing a mask and gloves, "Let's go out for a while, I will do my best, please rest assured."

    Gao Ming didn't say anything, he also knew that the operating room is generally very clean, and these people may bring a lot of germs when they go in and out, and the wound infection will not be so easy at that time, "Then I'll go out."

    Gao Ming left the room and the door of the operating room was closed, Gao Ming was sitting outside, Lu Qingtang was outside with He Ruoshui, Guan Yue looked at it and suddenly remembered something, pointed to the child in Lu Qingtang's arms and He Ruoshui, said : "Examine this lady and this child. Do you have any equipment here? A simple inspection will do."

    "Yes, yes, there are ten crystal nuclei in one inspection, and children need five more."

    Guan Yue nodded, "Go over and check."

    When He Ruoshui saw that Lu Qingtang accepted Guan Yue's words without any burden, she didn't say anything, ten crystal nuclei... Of course she knew what a crystal nucleus was, and one crystal nucleus was worth three food tickets, which she had before I don't dare to think about it at all, but now... a casual physical examination will cost ten crystal nuclei, thirty food tickets, and one month's rations...
