    At the appointed time, she put on the rattan frame on her back and set off.

    Hope to switch to rice and salt, chili will do too, the bird fades out of her mouth.

    Chapter 4

    The soldiers of the patrol team do not drive big trucks, but pickup trucks. Not only can people sit in the front, but the rest of the people squat in the back of the truck.

    Li Xiaoxiao imitated the soldiers, and climbed to the cart with the rattan frame on her back. Not only did she load potatoes, she also brought tomatoes.

    "thanks."

    Brother Bing smiled heartily: "You're welcome."

    The soldier inside said hello: "Miss, sit here."

    Li Xiaoxiao looked and found that he had given her the shady place behind the front of the car. The sun was really scorching, so she was not polite. While sitting down, she took out two tomatoes from the rattan frame, and the two soldiers gave one to each of them.

    Serving the people has always been Bing Ge's belief. He didn't expect to get a tomato. He licked his chapped lips and hesitated to accept it.

    "Eat it, it's nothing rare," Li Xiaoxiao stuffed the tomato into the opponent's hand, "I have a tomato tree."

    Everyone's farmland is very large. She has tomato trees, and others may have persimmon trees and pomegranate trees. There is no need to be jealous of a tomato tree, and eating tomatoes alone can't fill your stomach.

    Sure enough, the farmers next to her who weren't wearing camouflage uniforms just glanced at her and didn't pay much attention.

    After the sun came out, it was getting hotter and hotter. Li Xiaoxiao took out a tomato and wiped it, and ate it. After the baptism of the red moon, the plants grew better, and even the tomatoes were tender and pulpy, especially juicy.

    The people next to him were dry and thirsty, and it was okay for everyone to be like this, but this woman ate deliciously, tomato juice dripped down her chin, and the tip of their noses was full of the sweet smell of tomatoes, isn't this torture?

    Some farmers couldn't help it: "Big sister, I have chili here, can I change it?"

    Li Xiaoxiao didn't expect to be able to change peppers. The car just started, and the wish came true: "How much is the variation value? My tomato is sixty-seven."

    The man's eyes lit up when he heard Liushiqi, and he opened his mouth and said, "I've eaten it before. It's not high, and it's not a staple food. Let's just exchange a catty for a catty."

    As he spoke, he was about to grab Li Xiaoxiao's tomatoes, but she blocked her with her hands. There must be something wrong with his vague words.

    She squinted her eyes, reached into the rattan frame, and actually took out a radiation measuring gun from her backpack: "If you don't know, I'll test it for you."

    The man twitched when he saw this, and was about to say something to evade. The soldier gnawed on the tomato and felt the rich juice in his mouth to quench his thirst, so he volunteered, "Girl, I'll help you."

    He took the initiative to take the radiation measuring gun and aimed it at the pepper. The man didn't dare to compare with the soldier holding the gun. If he really encountered a mutant beast, he would have to rely on others for help.

    Brother Bing looked at the value and was shocked: "Hey, three hundred and thirty-six, moderate pollution, you are so embarrassed to say that it is not high, and exchange a catty for a catty with other girls?"

    In order to increase his persuasiveness, Li Xiaoxiao took the initiative to test his tomato, and it turned out to be sixty-seven.

    Everyone's eyes fell on the man like needles, Brother Bing's face became serious, the man was extremely embarrassed, he couldn't speak, if he was not in the car, he would have run away long ago.

    At this time Li Xiaoxiao said: "One catty can't be exchanged for one catty, one catty can be exchanged for six catties."

    The radiation index of the potato seedlings given by Xingfu will definitely not be too low. After being planted in the primary farmland, it will drop below five, which shows that the farmland has a certain purification function. To her, it is okay for the pepper to have high radiation.

    The man's expression is aggrieved. Under normal circumstances, one catty is exchanged for three catties. You have doubled it. You are taking advantage of the fire. The man wants to curse, but he feels the pressure on Brother Bing, so he has to eat this unspoken grievances, "Okay……Ok."

    Li Xiaoxiao took out three catties of tomatoes, and exchanged eighteen catties of peppers with the man. The man's face turned green, and the bag was more than half empty, filling Li Xiaoxiao's rattan frame.

    In fact, she doesn't need to change too much, as long as one plant is planted, she can get chili seeds continuously. It is useless for her to change too much, but this man lied to her in front of so many people, so she has to find the place and let others knowShe is not easy to bully, otherwise she will not be able to be clean in the future.

    As for the extra peppers, they can be sold after they are brought to the urban area, and those that can be eaten can be sold without worrying about selling them.

    Sure enough, those farm owners saw Li Xiaoxiao's eyes differently, and labeled her as not to be messed with, but they couldn't attract the temptation of tomatoes, so they opened their mouths to exchange with her, and even offered some discounts.The soldiers of the team all spoke.

    Before Li Xiaoxiao got out of the car, a basket of tomatoes was sold out, in exchange for peppers, lettuce, and the most valuable thing was the salt that Brother Bing gave her.

    Brother Bing explained: "Don't think it's too expensive. Who told us that we don't rely on the sea. Salt is a rare commodity."

    The reason is that salt is still a necessity for survival, and no one can live without it.

    Li Xiaoxiao secretly put the salt in her backpack so as not to fall and cry to death. She has not reached her destination yet, and she has achieved more than half of her trip goal. She will wait until the city to see if there are any poultry sellers such as rapeseed or chickens and ducklings.

    She wants to eat meat.

    After that, the heat was smoky all the way, and everyone lost the desire to talk, and just wanted to get there quickly, but when they approached the urban area, there was a problem. A banyan tree by the roadside mutated, and the vines lashed at them like a whip. Fortunately,The driver was skilled in driving, he avoided the trees and vines as soon as he turned a corner, and stopped not far ahead, and most of the soldiers jumped off the car.

    As long as this aggressive mutant plant is seen, it must be cleaned up.

    Li Xiaoxiao watched them untie the ax and cut down the trees outside the banyan tree. She couldn't see how to do it, because the car didn't stop and drove into the urban area first.

    Compared with a few days ago, earth-shaking changes have taken place here.

    The blocked roads have been cleaned up, the houses have been renovated, and the community where the underground base exit is located has been fenced off. The bluestone walls are very high, thick, and very strong. There are soldiers with guns on them, and vehicles are constantly coming in and out at the main entrance., they followed the other cars.

    Li Xiaoxiao feels that the people have changed the most. They don't look like they were in the underground base, they are still thin and thin, but there is light in their eyes.

    She deeply felt the strong vitality of this country.

    Li Xiaoxiao realized that the disaster was over.

    To enter the community within the fence, you need to pass the inspection of the machine, so as not to bring the small mutant beast into the base. The inspection is very fast, a bit like going through the security check at the airport before the disaster, even the machine is very similar.

    After passing the checkpoint, there is a long buffer zone. The buildings here are being demolished, leaving only a tall watchtower. She saw someone guarding it. Behind the watchtower is the second inner wall.While repairing, she saw a lot of people carrying stone and wood. The pickup led them around a corner, entered the inner wall through the door on the left, and stopped by the door.

    The soldier who drove the car pointed to the not far away and said, "That's the market over there. Going to the end is the official purchase point set up by Xingfu. Gather before the sun goes down. Don't wait when it's out of date. Pay attention to the time yourself."

    After speaking, he drove away.

    Several farmers stared at the lively market with confused expressions, not knowing what to do, Li Xiaoxiao walked inside first.

    She plans to go to the official purchase point first, and then go out to the market. Although she doesn't know the situation here, she is not worried that she will be cheated. Doing things under the nose of the official, does she think her life is too comfortable? DisasterThere was a Price Supervision Bureau in the former Xingfu. After the disaster, food is a matter of human life, and Xingfu will only supervise it more strictly.

    After all, her motherland is so powerful.

    Never underestimate the wisdom and ability of people. At first she was worried that her potatoes would be eye-catching, but when she came to the market, she found that there were a lot of capable people. In just a few days, these people even brought strawberries, and pulledThe wind brought a cage of cardinals, and they roasted them while attracting customers. When the wind blew, the smell of meat was overflowing, and those who wanted to eat meat couldn't move their legs.

    Li Xiaoxiao also stopped and stared at the roasted cardinal for a while. If the potatoes can be sold at a high price, she will buy the roasted bird when she comes back.

    Walking to the official exchange point, Xingfu thoughtfully put up a road sign, and she followed to the food purchase department. There are three service booths here. She randomly found the one that seemed to be in the shortest line. While turning on the system, she found that the mall had been refreshed for half an hour..

    She sighed, there is no timing tool, it is really inconvenient, it is easy to miss the refresh of the mall, and it has been four days, and the blueprint has not been refreshed, it is estimated that there is no good thing this time, she glanced roughly, her eyes suddenly stopped.

    "Troublemaker blueprint: can protect crops from being lost"

    Li Xiaoxiao's eyes sharpened when she thought of the black bird that was grabbing her potatoes and fleeing away. She needed this blueprint very much, and she definitely, definitely, definitely wanted to buy it!

    Thirty-five diamonds...

    Well, her deposit is only twenty-four, which is still a lot short. In the remaining five and a half hours, how will she make up the shortfall?

    Li Xiaoxiao scratched her ears, and started browsing her achievement list again, with two ideas in mind, the first one is to complete the second achievement of picking up trash, or complete the achievement of hoarding water.

    Just when she was thinking about what to do, a piercing scream suddenly came from in front of her, "Li Xiaoxiao?!"

    She looked up and found that the buyer of this team turned out to be Wang Xiang, helpless and irritable, what's going on, isn't this guy working in the cafeteria, why did he come here to be a buyer?

    Wang Xiang stared at the man for a while, then came to his senses, covered his mouth and gloated, "Are you going to be a farmer? Life is hard, isn't it? Look at the bite all over the body, tsk tsk, it's very itchy and uncomfortable, right?"Why are you so overwhelmed? If you can’t survive, tell your sister that it’s better than going to a farm, isn’t it?”

    The mockery in that tone couldn't be concealed.

    Li Xiaoxiao felt that she was also stupid, and she didn't turn around and leave immediately after seeing Wang Xiang.

    The other party was more annoying than a buzzing fly. She was too lazy to talk nonsense with Wang Xiang, and turned to go to another team. Suddenly a woman with glasses ran over and saw Wang Xiang with her head covered and her face covered.

    "I asked you to find radiation-free food. Why haven't you found it? The Academy of Agricultural Sciences is waiting for research. At such a critical juncture, you still have time to ridicule people? Get out, take off my uniform and get out!"

    Wang Xiang was scolded to the point of disgrace, with so many people, especially in front of Li Xiaoxiao, she was just taunting him from above, but in less than three seconds, her face hit the ground.

    Wang Xiang was ashamed and angry, and she had to say good things to people in a low voice. This bastard must have received anger elsewhere and sprinkled it all on her. He was so angry that all the blood in Wang Xiang's body rushed to his face., wish could pounce on the girl with glasses and smash her mouth, but she can only endure it for work. Is there anything more embarrassing than this?

    The result told her that it was possible.

    Li Xiaoxiao raised her hand: "I have radiation-free food."

    Chapter 5

    Hearing Li Xiaoxiao's words, the people nearby cast their eyes on Wang Xiang to watch the excitement.

    Wang Xiang's face was hot, obviously no one mentioned her, and Li Xiaoxiao didn't even look at herself, but Wang Xiang seemed to be slapped across the air, extremely ashamed and embarrassed.

    She bit her lower lip: "You can't get along, you can only be a farmer's waste, talking nonsense, how could you have..." Such precious food.

    Li Xiaoxiao glanced at the person, and did not argue with Wang Xiang. Her habit is to be able to move her hands without moving her mouth. When hitting a dog, just hit the dog seven inches, and the pain will be fine. She took out potatoes and tested them with a radiation gun,Show the value to the glasses woman.

    A sharp-eyed person next to him exclaimed: "I'll go, I'll go, four? I've lived for more than 20 years, and this is the first time I've seen single digits!"

    "Awesome—"

    "Didn't it mean no radiation, why not zero?"

    "Are you serious? Even if it is hidden deep in the center of the earth, it will be polluted by radiation. It is hard to say whether something with zero radiation exists or not, so it is generally defaulted to be 'no radiation' if it is below ten."

    Wang Xiang listened to those praises and marveled, and felt that she was being pulled out and whipped the corpse. She said that it was impossible for Li Xiaoxiao to take out such precious food, so Li Xiaoxiao just took it out.Make her feel uncomfortable, I feel like a clown.

    On the contrary, the girl with glasses was very pleasantly surprised, her whole body was shaking with excitement, Li Xiaoxiao handed the potato to the other party: "You can test it yourself."

    The girl with glasses thought for a while, and really took out a radiation measuring gun from her body. The people around surrounded her curiously, and Wang Xiang also came over. She still didn't believe that Li Xiaoxiao could find food with less than 10 radiation.

    "It's indeed four, it's true," the woman with glasses muttered to herself, carefully holding the potatoes in both hands, "Professor Wang doesn't need to..."

    The girl with glasses stared at Li Xiaoxiao closely, and said very quickly, "How many do you have? We want them all. The price is negotiable. How about a catty of potatoes for five catties of sweet potato noodles?"

    When the people around heard it, they almost shed tears of envy, even Wang Xiang was no exception.

    Five catties of sweet potato noodles can be made into at least ten catties of steamed buns by adding water. It is because there is no baking powder now, and the steamed buns are relatively solid. Otherwise, more can be made. Ten catties of steamed buns are enough for a long time.There are only four steamed buns, which add up to only two catties. Whoever sees this is not envious and whoever is not jealous.

    "Whoever said that being a farmer is a terrible job, I think it's a job that falls from the sky."

    "Is it too late to apply now?"

    "I don't know which area she is from."

    Sweet potato noodles are the official currency established by Xingfu. The radiation index is between 50 and 100. Eating them will not affect the human body, but eating them for a long time will cause radiation accumulation. You need to inject anti-radiation needles to clear the radiation, otherwise it will mutate.If the radiation value ingested at one time exceeds one hundred, it will cause harm to people, and if it exceeds one thousand, it will immediately mutate.

    Even food with a value below 50 will also accumulate radiation, but the process is slower, but it cannot be avoided. Only when it is below 10, will there be no radiation residue.

    Li Xiaoxiao heard that her potatoes were helpful to scientific research projects, and she didn't hang around, "Yes, but she apologized to me."

    All eyes followed her fingers and landed on Wang Xiang, who took a step back.

    The girl with glasses thought about the scene she encountered when she came here. This kind of person who relies on the work of the Xingfu to pretend to be a tiger, even if there is no such thing as Tudou, she still wants to apologize to Wang Xiang, "It should be, Wang Xiang—"

    Wang Xiang dawdled and didn't want to move, and if she wanted to apologize to Li Xiaoxiao, it would be better to kill her.

    Unexpectedly, the people next to him became angry with the enemy, "I said that this buyer's eyes are flying to the sky, and he looks sideways at everyone, what's wrong."

    "Speaking with a gun and a stick, what the hell, so arrogant, it's not the same as eating and drinking, and cutting."

    "That's right, if it weren't for the lack of people here, I wouldn't come here to be angry with her."

    Wang Xiang was run over by everyone's words, like a mouse crossing the street. Seeing the leader's face darkened, she immediately faltered, and apologized honestly, "I'm sorry!"

    Li Xiaoxiao received Wang Xiang's apology, and then gave the bastard another bite. The other party was unhappy, so she was happy, and turned the potatoes out of the rattan frame: "It's all here."

    The girl with glasses has potatoes, so she can't care about Wang Xiang. She enthusiastically rubs over and helps Li Xiaoxiao put the potatoes on the scale. When she sees the numbers, she laughs into words, and her hair is full of joy: "Thirty, there are three!"Ten catties..."

    When the people next to him did the math, they felt their brains were short of oxygen.

    Oh my god, that's 150 catties of sweet potato noodles. To him who couldn't afford even half a catty, that was an astronomical figure, no less than the impact of tens of millions of deposits on a debtor.

    Due to the large amount, it was impossible to exchange it on the spot. The girl with glasses took Li Xiao Xiao to the warehouse, fearing that she would find it troublesome and would not exchange it, so she kept looking for topics to talk to her on the way: "Xiaoxiao, I think the things in your box are quite complicated, and setting up a stall is also troublesome.", why don't I change it for you together."

    This relationship is good, Li Xiaoxiao didn't refuse, the chili lettuce and other bits and pieces of food were added together, and only six catties of sweet potato noodles were exchanged, which was because of the discount given to her.

    The female commander of the glasses brought out three big bags and one small bag of sweet potato noodles, a total of one hundred and fifty-six catties, and said positively: "I'll find you a cart."

    Then I found a small trolley, and instead of asking Li Xiaoxiao for sweet potato noodles, I just took her hand and told her over and over again, "In the future, there will be radiation-free food. You can send it directly to the Academy of Agricultural Sciences. It's still the same price.Behind the market, not far away, anyone who asks anyone will know, or you can tell me
