At 3:30 p.m. the next day, Chu Qiang drove the pickup truck and stopped in front of the little fairy.As soon as he got off the pickup truck, a yellow spike pierced Chu Qiang in front of him.

Chu Qiang jumped back, and his back hit the car door with a loud "boom".The little fairy laughed out loud, the thorns on her body rattled.Chu Qiang gritted his teeth in pain and touched his back with his backhand, humming twice: "For the sake of saving me last night, I don't have the same knowledge as you."

There is a hydraulic truck in the pickup truck. The truck is heavy and makes a particularly loud sound when it rolls on the ground.The little fairy was dissatisfied with the noise made by the truck, and fired several spikes at it.The sharp jabs banged on the forklift, but unfortunately only knocked off a little paint.

After realizing that the little fairy just likes to make fun of herself, Chu Qiang became much less afraid of it.Seeing that the little fairy didn't even let the forklift go, Chu Qiang couldn't laugh or cry: "My little ancestor, don't break the truck for me, do you know how hard it took me to find it? Stop playing,If it breaks, I'll make Jiang Gong pay for it."

Hearing that her actions would bring trouble to Jiang Gong, the little fairy twisted her body and leaned listlessly against the courtyard wall.It dangled the ball and hummed listlessly: "Cartoon..."

Chu Qiang shrugged: "I can't help you with this, you have to discuss it with Jiang Gong."

As soon as the words fell, the little fairy became even more sluggish.Jiang Rong only allowed it to watch TV for two hours a day, and it used up the quota early, so it can only pass the time by counting the spikes on its body.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was scorching hot, and without saying a few words to the little fairy, Chu Qiang's back was scorching hot.He dragged the truck and walked quickly towards the yard: "Xiaojiang, are things ready? It's already done over there."

After leaving Jiang Rong's house early this morning, Chu Qiang went to several nearby villages to start publicity.After half a day of hard work, the first market after the big crisis is about to open.

As soon as he entered Jiang Rong's house, Chu Qiang felt a chill.This coolness is lower than the lowest temperature of the air conditioner.Looking closely, saw that the living room was covered with a thick layer of cardboard, and on the cardboard were four round baskets woven from rattan.

The basket has a lid, with a diameter of nearly 1.5 meters and a height of nearly 1.2 meters. It looks like a rice bucket used by villagers to store food.There is a standard wooden tray under each basket, which looks very domineering at first glance.

Chu Qiang walked quickly towards the baskets, but before Jiang Rong could stop him, he had already lifted the lid of the outermost basket.

The baskets are woven from the rattan that Jiang Rong produced with supernatural powers. Each rattan is as thick as a thumb, so it goes without saying how strong it is.The inner wall of the basket was evenly covered with a thick layer of quilts, fearing that the quilts would be clumped together and affect the effect, Jiang Rong pressed it tightly with tiny rattan sticks.

The inside of the quilt is wrapped with a layer of plastic film, and inside the film is a layer of frozen mineral water bottle, and the inside of the mineral water is covered with several layers of plastic film... After three layers of inner and outer layers of wrapping,The basket becomes a simple artificial refrigerator.

The wolf carcasses were wrapped in film, bent and placed in the middle of the basket, and the gaps between each wolf were filled with ice mineral water bottles.

Convinced, Chu Qiang couldn't help giving Jiang Rong a thumbs up: "As expected of Xiaojiang, he can think of such a way."

On the way here, Chu Qiang was still thinking about what method his Fa Xiao would use to cool down the wolf corpse.There are more than thirty wolves. If the temperature is not cooled in time, they will definitely stink when they are sold.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Rong made a simple refrigerator out of quilts and ice cubes. Before the ice cubes melted, the basket would keep the temperature low.As expected of Xiaojiang, he has a good brain.

Jiang Rong covered each basket with a thick blanket: "The principle of heat preservation is very simple, you can do it if you want."

Chu Qiang waved his hands again and again: "No, no, I can't." When he saw the quilt, he was so hot that he just wanted to stay eight feet away, let alone use them to cool down.

Guan Shao silently pulled up the hydraulic truck: "I will transport two baskets out with Chu Qiang first."

The pickup truck was small, barely enough to hold two baskets, and Chu Qiang had to make two trips to transport all the wolf meat there.Driving a pickup truck can’t take small roads, and Chu Qiang has to drive around for more than ten minutes to get to their village. Thinking of this, he is quite depressed: “Xiaojiang, I want to build a road between our two families, it’s too troublesome to go around like thisgone."

Although Chu Qiang's house and Jiang Rong's house are quite close in a straight line, there is a height difference between the two villages. Jiang Rong's village is nearly 50 meters higher than Chu Qiang's house. If the road is built straight, the road will be very trembling.If you want to build roads, you can only build winding mountain roads along the mountain, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive and expensive.

Their village belongs to two brigades, and neither brigade wanted to pay for the road construction before the crisis.But the situation is different now, needless to say how important Jiang Rong is, if it wasn't for Chu Qiang not being able to move out of his house, he would have moved near Jiang Rong's house long ago.

After hearing what Chu Qiang said, Jiang Rong also nodded: "Indeed, there is a way that will be much more convenient."

Before the awakening of wood-type abilities, the biggest advantage of my hometown is its quietness and remoteness.Xiaoshan Col is on the top of Lingshan Reservoir, and few people are seen in a year.After the Great Crisis, there are many mutated animals and plants nearby, and ordinary people rarely find this place, so it will be safer to live here.

But if you want to build a base, the once greatest advantage will become an obstacle instead.If you want to build a base, you must have convenient transportation.Otherwise, the people who defected to the base could not find the location of the base, wouldn't that delay the business?

The road construction can be put aside later, the most important thing now is to go to the market first and see how many people are left around.

The village where Chu Qiang's family lives is under the jurisdiction of the fishery brigade. There are six villages in the fishery brigade, and his family belongs to the third fishery village.Murakami used to make a living by fishing in Lingshan Reservoir.When the village was most prosperous, there used to be hundreds of households. In order for the villagers to have a place to do activities, the village raised funds to build an activity center at the entrance of the village.

The activity center covers an area of two or three acres, and there is a two-story building inside, and the rest is the fitness square.When Jiang Rong and the others arrived at the activity center, they saw dozens of cars parked in the fitness plaza, and someone had already put up signs and set up booths under the eaves of the small building.

At a cursory glance, there were seventy or eighty people present, all of whom were villagers from several nearby villages.The folks in the village met for the first time after the big crisis, and everyone chatted enthusiastically, talking and laughing endlessly.Seeing such an atmosphere, the shadow of the big crisis dissipated a bit.

Jiang Rong glanced at the items that everyone brought for exchange, it can be said that there were all kinds of things.Some people brought condiments, some brought small household appliances, some brought books... In general, most people exchanged things that were not very practical.

Of course, some people also brought practical things.For example, Uncle Li and his wife, they brought some freshly ripened fruits from the orchard.Others brought rice and fish.

Seeing Jiang Rong getting off the pickup truck, the laughter on the scene became much quieter.They whispered among each other: "Is it them?" "It should be. I saw him several times when he was a child. That's right, Jiang Rong from the old Jiang's family."

Jiang Rong didn't take everyone's comments to heart, he just dragged the van with Guan Shao to the innermost booth of the small building.There was a square table on the booth, and there were cutting boards and kitchen knives on the square table. Uncle Chu stood in front of the square table and waved repeatedly: "Here, here."

As the first basket was placed on the ground, Guan Shao took the initiative to open the lid of the basket.A burst of coolness overflowed from the basket, and the people standing near the basket smelled an unusual smell of blood.

Guan Shao reached out and lifted a wolf out of the basket, and he easily placed the wolf weighing more than two hundred catties on the square table.The moment the wolf's body touched the square table, there was a dull sound, and the people around gasped: "It's a wolf, it's a real wolf!"

"Good guy, this wolf weighs a few hundred pounds? If I encounter it, I will die."

"The supernatural beings are really powerful. Such a terrifying mutant wolf can be beaten by them. The younger generation is awesome!"

Seeing everyone's reaction, Jiang Rong's lips twitched slightly.It seems that it is a wise thing to divide the wolves in front of everyone. Only by letting everyone intuitively see how big the mutant wolves are, can everyone be convinced of their strength.

The wolf that was hit in the early hours of this morning had already started to stiffen by this time, because it was bent, it looked far less powerful than yesterday.However, it still domineeringly occupied the entire square table. Although these wolves had been bled by Guan Shao in advance, the moment the plastic film on the wolves was removed, a stench still wafted out.

Smelling this smell, instead of retreating, the people around surrounded him eagerly.They pointed around the desk, with obvious excitement and excitement in their expressions.

Look, what about mutant wolves?Isn't it reduced to their food?

Guan Shao put a lock on the wolf's neck and hung it on the beam beside the square table.He lowered his voice and said to Jiang Rong: "You and Chu Qiang go get the second batch first, and leave it to me here."

Jiang Rong looked at the people around him and said softly: "Don't worry, there aren't many people now, so I don't know how the exchange is going. If there are more people in a while, there is still time to go back and procrastinate."

As he spoke, he took out a large jug from his carry-on bag and handed it to Guan Shao: "Here, lemonade."

Guan Shao's smile deepened, he took the kettle and unscrewed the lid and drank in big gulps.The unmelted ice cubes in the kettle collided with the glass wall, making a slight sound.The slightly sour lemonade entered his throat, and Guan Shao felt that the heat was suppressed a lot.

After drinking the lemonade, Guan Shao officially started to clean up the wolf meat.Jiang Rong has seen his sword technique many times, and every time he sees it, he feels differently.

The eyes of those who saw Guan Shao's knife skills for the first time were straightened: "I'll be good, this knife is too slippery, isn't it?"

"Who is this young man? Is he from our place? Why haven't you seen him before?"

"Shh, look carefully, don't talk."

While everyone was watching Guan Shao peeling the wolf, Jiang Rong retreated to the side of the square table.There was a clean small table next to the desk. Jiang Rong opened the backpack and took out a laptop from it and put it on the small table.The computer started up and made a pleasant sound. Upon hearing this sound, several people in the crowd turned their heads and looked over.

Their discussion became even louder: "He still has a video game computer?"

"It should be because there are solar cells at home, right? He is a supernatural being. Isn't it easy to get solar cells?"

Jiang Rong skillfully opened the office software with downcast eyes, and quickly made forms.After the form was completed, he cleared his throat and raised his voice: "Please come to my place to register for the folks who want to exchange wolf meat."

Hearing this, someone asked puzzledly: "No, why do you need to register to exchange wolf meat?"

Jiang Rong smiled slightly and explained: "Because it's the first time for everyone to exchange things, it is inevitable that there will be disadvantages to get a better deal, and it will be beneficial to everyone to record them. I will register the things you bring first, and then tell you what to bring.How much meat can be exchanged for the items. After both parties feel that there is no problem, the meat can be exchanged smoothly."

After hearing Jiang Rong's explanation, the people present looked at the things in each other's hands, and then understood what he did.Most of the people who came here today came for wolf meat.Most of them haven't eaten meat since the Great Crisis, and the meat essence is expensive now, let alone the mutated wolf meat they are going to exchange for today.

Today's world has changed, and things that were valuable before the big crisis are not necessarily valuable now.To put it simply, a set of cosmetics used to cost thousands of dollars, and a catty of peaches cost only a few yuan, but now a set of cosmetics may not be able to exchange ten catties of peaches.

It was up to Jiang Rong to judge how much the things they brought could be exchanged for.This may cause some people to have a psychological gap and feel that they are at a disadvantage.Jiang Rong took a look at what they brought, and then told them how much meat they could exchange.If they can accept it, they put down their things and take the meat away. If they can't accept it, they can turn around and leave.This can save a lot of wrangling time and allow everyone to get the meat faster.

Seeing that everyone understood his intention, Jiang Rong smiled and said, "Please line up everyone, let me register first."

I don't know if the people present were reasonable, or Jiang Rong's status as a supernatural being was enough to frighten them. After a while, everyone lined up under the eaves.Jiang Rong carefully recorded the names, home addresses, and exchange information of these people, and then decided how much wolf meat to exchange based on the quality and quantity of the items they brought.

This is a job that tests eyesight and endurance, and most people really can't do it well.However, Jiang Rong had experience living in the base, so he could tell the other party the exchange amount after a glance.

After a while, everyone figured out the pattern, and Jiang Rong put the things that can be imported first.The exchange ratio between unprocessed agricultural products and meat is about fifteen to one, and fifteen catties of rice can be exchanged for one catty of wolf meat.For processed foods, such as instant noodles or canned food, the exchange ratio is about six to one, and six packs of instant noodles can be exchanged for a catty of meat.

In the second place are some urgently needed supplies in life, such as paper towels and medicines.These things can be exchanged for a good exchange rate. One man exchanged a pound of meat for two lifts of tissue paper, and another exchanged a pound of meat for a box of anti-inflammatory drugs.

In the third place are precious metals such as gold and silver. One gram of gold can be exchanged for one catty of meat.An elder sister couldn't accept this condition after hearing it, and finally went back with a gold bracelet.

The most useless things are small household appliances and the like. Without electricity, these things are scrap copper and rotten iron that cannot be replaced by meat.But Jiang Rong wouldn't disappoint these people: Although they couldn't exchange for meat, they could exchange for bones.When Guan Shao divided the bones, he left a lot of meat on them, and the bones were also very affordable.

The registration work went smoothly, and more than 30 people were registered in a short time.Everyone gave theirs to Chu Qiang, and Chu Qiang lifted the things to the pickup truck and put them away.The registered people lined up separately, waiting for Guan Shao to start dividing the meat.

Jiang Rong turned to look in Guan Shao's direction, Guan Shao was picking up the second wolf.Just as he was thinking about whether to start dividing the meat first, he heard a timid female voice: "Hi, hello. That... I, can I exchange for cat litter?"

Looking up, he saw a girl in a light green skirt standing in front of Jiang Rong with a blushing face.The moment he saw the girl, Jiang Rong felt an unusual wave of power emanating from her. If he guessed right, the girl should be a supernatural being.

The girl was tall and fair-skinned, and her attire was very clean among a group of disheveled people.She was holding a large bag of cat litter in her hand, and a puppet cat with blue eyes on the bag was looking at Jiang Rong.

Seeing Jiang Rong staring at her, the girl became even more nervous: "Yes, can I exchange it?"

Before Jiang Rong could make a statement, the people around the girl had already laughed: "Girl, do you think it's still a peaceful and prosperous world? Even if you bring a cat, it's better than bringing cat litter. Cats can still eat, catsWhat can sand do?"

The girl bowed her head in embarrassment, her face flushed, her eyes were red with tears, "The cat... the cat is gone."

Jiang Rong looked at the cat litter bag seriously. To be honest, he didn't expect that someone would bring cat litter to exchange.For a while he fell into silence, not knowing how much to give.

The girl blinked, tears rolled down her cheeks, and her voice was as thin as a mosquito's gnat: "Can I exchange it?"

Jiang Rong nodded: "Yes."

The light in the girl's eyes suddenly lit up, "I have a lot of cat litter in my house, several hundred catties. Can I exchange all of them?"

Jiang Rong smiled slightly: "Yes."

The girl broke into a smile, and raised her hand to wipe her tears: "Well, then I'll go home and get it now. Wait for me a little bit."

Jiang Rong waved his hand: "Don't worry, you can get the meat first, and bring the cat litter when you have time." Jiang Rong told her the amount: "A bag of cat litter is 6.5kg, and half a catty of meat is exchanged.can you accept?"

The girl was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, thank you, thank you!"

Jiang Rong put both hands on the keyboard: "Name, home address."

The girl quickly said: "My name is Ruan Hanyu, I live in Yuye Six Village, and I can exchange 20 bags of cat litter."

Jiang Rong typed "Pa Pa Pa Pa", and a strange voice came from the crowd on one side: "Hey, the hero is sad for the beauty pass. When the beauty cries, cat litter can be exchanged for meat. Did you hear that? Twenty bags of catsSand can be exchanged for ten catties of meat. Two bags of rice from Lao Qian’s house are no match for cat litter.”

Hearing these discussions, Ruan Hanyu lowered his head again and rubbed his hands awkwardly.Jiang Rong filled out the information without changing his expression, then turned to the computer, "Sign here."

Hearing everyone's discussion, the movement of Guan Shao's hands slowed down, he turned his head to look at Ruan Hanyu and then at the cat litter in her hand.I have to say that Ruan Hanyu is a beautiful girl, she was very close to Jiang Rong when she bent over to sign, and she looked a good match.

Guan Shao moved even slower.

After Ruan Hanyu signed, Jiang Rong asked her to queue in another line.Suddenly he felt a familiar gaze staring at him, and when he turned his head, his eyes met Guan Shao's.Seeing the darkness in Guan Shao's eyes, Jiang Rong explained: "Cat litter can cover up the smell."

With just seven words, the emotions in Guan Shao's eyes completely disappeared.Today's mutated animals are more powerful than each other. Yesterday they poured wolf blood into the yard. Even after washing it several times, they could still smell the smell when they entered the yard.With cat litter, the smell is covered directly by covering it.Moreover, cat litter is also a good moisturizing material, and it can still exert waste heat after being used up and piled up in the vegetable garden.

Guan Shao nodded with a smile, then picked up the kettle and took a few mouthfuls of water.comfortable~

Besides Ruan Hanyu, Jiang Rong also met another person who brought strange things in exchange.The man's surname was Pan, and his name was Pan Xiaoquan. He stood in front of Jiang Rong mysteriously and opened the sack: "Do you know this?"

Jiang Rong followed the trend and saw square pieces of black and gray boards in the sack.There are some silver lines on the board, which look familiar at first glance.But after thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't remember where he had seen these things.So he could only shake his head: "Not very familiar."

Pan Xiaoquan smiled: "This is a good thing, take a look, what is it?"

As he spoke, Pan Xiaoquan lowered his body and moved towards Jiang Rong, but before he could get close, a cold light slid past his ear.Pan Xiaoquan only felt his cheeks turn cold, and stretched out his hand to touch it, only to feel thin drops of blood.

Pan Xiaoquan swallowed his saliva in horror, he turned his head to look, and saw a sharp dagger nailed to the wall behind him.The dagger was half-submerged into the wall, and the wolf blood left on the blade made one's hair stand on end.

Guan Shao expressionless: "I'm sorry, my hand slipped."

The skin on Pan Xiaoquan's face twitched, showing an expression uglier than crying: "No, it's okay." Why is this person so scary?It feels like I'm going to eat myself.

Jiang Rong said seriously, "I'm sorry, I really don't know much about what you brought, so I can't exchange it for you."

Pan Xiaoquan couldn't care less about playing tricks anymore, he quickly said: "This is a solar panel! Don't you know a solar panel?"

Jiang Rong: ...

Looking closely, these palm-sized wafers really look like those in his solar panels.It's just that the solar panel in his house is completely different from the one in front of him. Could this be some new type of solar energy?

Hearing Pan Xiaoquan's words, Chu Qiang strode over.He picked up a board and looked at it, then sneered: "Solar panels? Who are you kidding? Think we don't know about solar energy? You are ordinary solar cells, unassembled gadgets, no one wants to sell scraps, you are foolingwho?"

Chu Qiang's face dropped, and Pan Xiaoquan was terrified, "I was wrong, I was wrong, I thought it was something good! I was wrong!"

Seeing that Chu Qiang was about to throw Pan Xiaoquan out of the team, Jiang Rong stopped him: "Wait, where did you get these batteries?"

Pan Xiaoquan didn't dare to say it at first, but with a wave of Chu Qiang's fist, he took it like a bamboo tube and poured beans: "I got it from my cousin Pan Pan. My cousin is also a person with supernatural powers. He took it from outside."I came back. I thought it was a good thing, so I took a bag."

Jiang Rong looked at Chu Qiang: "Pan Pan? Do you have any impression?"

After thinking for a while, Chu Qiang said: "Almost everyone in the fishery fifth team has the surname Pan, but I don't know them very well. I'll go there later and ask." Everyone is a supernatural being, so it's important to establish a good relationship in advance.

As a result, Pan Xiaoquan screamed: "You can't tell Pan Pan, he will beat me to death!"

Jiang Rong smiled slightly, and said to Chu Qiang: "Detain him first, and then contact Pan Pan in a while, and let him come to lead someone." He likes to give such favors.
