Chapter 298 304. Zombie World 06
“You haven’t answered me yet, can you escort me home?
If you want food, I have it at home, and I also have some gold reserves at home. I can give you two small gold bars, each weighing 50 grams."
Shen Yan knew that money was not worth using now, but gold had some value wherever it went.
She dared to make such a request because her family had these things left. Since she was born, most of the money her parents earned every year was exchanged for gold. In their words, they didn't know how to do business, and they could earn some interest by depositing money in the bank, but it was far less than the appreciation of gold. This gold could be sold later for money to buy a house, or given as a dowry to their daughter.
Yuntutu, "How far is your home from here?"
She would not agree to it blindly. If the place was far away, she didn't know how much energy it would consume. She couldn't do such a loss-making deal.
"It's not far. Normally I can just take two buses to go back, or drive for more than 20 minutes. It's just that under the current circumstances, it might be more troublesome." Shen Yan saw that she did not object at the first time, and she felt a little expectant. If they could send her home, her parents would not have to run out and take risks, and she would have a great chance of seeing her parents again.
"So what if you go home? In this world, hiding won't last long."
Yun Tutu did not agree immediately. She had to discuss it with Brother Zhang later. Now that they had completed the transaction, she didn't know what to do next. It was not that she couldn't make this trip.
Bringing so many supplies now seems like a mistake.
The end of the world here has just begun, so there must be a lot of reserves and a lot of food. As long as you have the courage to go out, there will be no shortage of food.
There is no rush to contact the authorities. They have to find a way to find the crystal core and figure out how to obtain superpowers. This is the most important thing.
"We have solar energy and a generator at home," Shen Yan said excitedly, "As long as there is electricity, my phone can be turned on, and then I can know the news outside..."
Yun Tutu took out a power bank and said, "Charge your phone first..."
Shen Yan, "..."
After a moment of stunned silence, she immediately became ecstatic, "Thank you, thank you!"
He couldn't wait to find the phone that was thrown in the corner, plugged it in with trembling hands, and saw the phone screen light up again, his eyes turned red.
God knows how anxious she has been these days. Although her parents know that there is a power outage where she is, what if they are worried and come here in advance?
I don't know what the news is from outside. Is there a base like Yuntutu said?
Zhang Yaowen and Bai Qinghe, who were busy downstairs, endured the discomfort and dug up a few zombies, and found a few colorful crystal cores. They were not big, only as thick as a little finger, irregular and angular. If they were placed under normal circumstances, people who didn't know would think they were ore.
After taking out some water for a simple rinse and filling it into a mineral water bottle, the two returned to the fourth floor.
When they returned to the floor, they were surprised to find several residents standing in the corridor, looking at them warily.
Zhang Yaowen ignored them. Their coming here had no conflict with them, and there was no need to have a conflict. Just as they were about to enter the door, someone spoke up, "Um, gentlemen, may I ask where are you from?"
The person who spoke was a thin middle-aged man named Li Tiezhu. Behind him, a fat middle-aged woman pushed him, forcing him to ask.
You know, they had seen how ferocious the two men were just now. The zombies they feared were like wooden stakes in the hands of the other party. Who knew where these two men came from? What if they attacked ordinary people like them?
He didn't dare to ask, but his wife behind him forced him to ask. If he didn't complete the task today, he would be thrown out and his life would be over.
"No comment," Zhang Yaowen said coldly. How could he answer this? Asking such a difficult question right away was simply embarrassing them.
Li Tiezhu wanted to retreat, but was pushed forward a few steps by his wife. Bai Qinghe immediately pointed the weapon at him, "What do you want to do?"
Li Tiezhu was so scared when he saw the weapon was still stained with unknown liquid that he quickly shook his head. "I didn't mean to do anything. I just wanted to ask you if you know what the situation is outside now. Will anyone come to rescue us?"
"We don't know any of this," Bai Qinghe said bluntly, "We are just ordinary people. You asked the wrong person."
Li Tiezhu muttered in a low voice, can an ordinary person be so powerful?
He didn't have the courage to ask any more questions, so he turned to look at his wife, only to feel her waist twisted hard, causing him to cry out in pain.
"Quick, ask them if they have food and water, so we can buy them."
Li’s wife also knew that food could not be bought with money now, but what if she met an idiot?
Li Tiezhu touched his stomach. He was indeed hungry for a day. If he didn't eat anything, everyone would probably not be able to bear it in two days. "I want to talk to you about something. Is it convenient for you?"
"It's not convenient," Zhang Yaowen, a martial artist, had already heard the other party's voice and pushed open the door to go in.
"Sir, please don't be so unkind. At least listen to what we are saying." Seeing her husband looking so useless, Li's wife pulled him aside and glared at him fiercely. He was so timid that people who didn't know would think she was stingy.
"We are willing to spend a lot of money to buy some food from you. As long as the price is right, we will definitely not let you lose money." After saying this, the Li family's wife took out two stacks of banknotes from her pocket, "Everyone is in such a difficult situation. Here are 20,000 yuan. How about buying two boxes of water and two boxes of dry food? It's a good deal, right?"
The neighbors who came out to watch were all shocked. The Li couple were really shameless. How could they use the money now?
"You should keep it for yourself, we don't need it," Zhang Yaowen was speechless. What kind of people are they? Can't they see what everyone is in now?
Yun Tutu heard the noise and stood at the door, watching this farce. It was really good. This was a top-notch haunting and there would be a good show to watch soon.
But Brother Zhang and the others just can’t do it. They have been tolerating such a woman.
"If you don't like this, it doesn't matter. I have a gold ring and a gold necklace here. What do you think?" Li's wife said, and pulled off a pure gold necklace as thick as her little finger from her neck. She then reached out and took off the necklace from Li Tiezhu's neck. "This weighs more than 60 grams in total. If it were in the past, what could not be bought?
I will give it to you at half the price, and you just need to give me food and water..."
Shen Yan also stood behind Yun Tutu and looked at the two people. They were the boss and his wife of the shop next door to his boss. He had heard that the boss was henpecked, but they came in and out at different times and they met seldom, so he had never seen anything of the matter. When he saw them today, he realized that the rumors were true.
