stay in the wasteland

Chapter 8 Blueprints and Radiation Reduction
The five friends came to those stalls. Except for Chen Ya, the other four were attracted by the dried meat on the stall.

Poor quality jerky
The meat of unknown mutated organisms contains some radiation pollution, 1 steel coin per kilogram.

……

This kind of meat can be eaten to death, but even so, there is still a large market. After all, the price is cheap, but eating this kind of low-quality jerky for a long time will definitely cause damage to the body.

The big nose and the other four were staring at another kind of meat product.

Premium Jerky
Mutated beef meat contains a small amount of radiation pollution, 10 steel coins per kilogram.

……

In the wasteland world of the radiation era, it is almost impossible to find completely pollution-free meat, which contains a small amount of radiation pollution, which can already be called a good food.

"Look, I'll go shopping first."

As Chen Ya said, he began to search alone. Although there were many stalls around, most of them were selling ingredients, weapons, materials, etc., and there was nothing he needed.

Soon, Chen Ya stopped and looked at a stall where there were several instruments similar to electronic pens.

geiger counter

Price: 10 steel coins

……

This is a portable 'radiation detector' that can measure the radiation content within 1 meter of the surrounding area. As long as you go to the wasteland world outside the wall, this piece of equipment is essential.

Chen Ya felt a little emotional. If there was this thing, the original owner of this body would definitely have been able to avoid the high-radiation area in advance and would not have died of illness.

Seeing that there were second-hand Geiger counters on the booth, Chen Ya couldn't help but looked at the stall owner and asked:
"Boss, how much does the old counter cost?"

The stall owner cast a glance at Chen Ya, and immediately raised five fingers. Chen Ya asked suspiciously:

"Five bottle caps?"

"It's a steel coin."

The stall owner rolled his eyes, Chen Ya was speechless, he knew he was thinking too much, even if it was a second-hand counter, the minimum price would be five Wasteland Coins.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Ya continued to search forward.

When he passed by a booth selling weapons, he saw a searcher holding an alloy knife, nodded in satisfaction and said:
"This knife is good, I want it!"

After speaking, he took out a white magnetic card, and the stall owner used a device similar to a POS machine to conduct transactions with the raiders.

Obviously, in this world, there are financial institutions similar to banks.

Huh?
At this moment, Chen Ya looked at a certain booth and found a thick blueprint, which read in Chinese:

Exoskeleton manufacturing drawings

Price: 1000 Wasteland Coins

……

Seeing the blueprint, Chen Ya became interested, and couldn't help but stepped forward and asked:
"Can I see the drawings?"

Hearing this, the stall owner couldn't help laughing and said:

"Boy, do you know how to read?"

"I don't know it, but I just want to see the pictures inside."

Chen Ya pretended not to know how to read, and the stall owner was amused, so he nodded and said:
"Look, just don't break it for me."

For the stall owner, this drawing is actually just for fun, to attract attention. Most people who really need exoskeleton armor buy the finished product.

Of course, the most important thing is that the blueprints are worthless, and the materials used to make the exoskeleton are much higher than the price of the blueprints.

After getting the stall owner's consent, Chen Ya squatted down and looked through the drawings. He found that there was a lot of content in it and it was completely impossible to record it from memory. He immediately felt very uncomfortable.

[Recording drawings...]

Chen Ya was taken aback for a moment, and a system prompt sounded in his mind, which made him extremely excited.

In the next second, Chen Ya quickly flipped through the thick blueprint in a few tens of seconds, and at the same time, the system prompt sounded again in his mind.

【drop! ~ After recording, get a blueprint for making the exoskeleton. 】

Immediately afterwards, a shimmering blueprint floated in front of Chen Ya's eyes, and all the information was exactly the same as the real blueprint.

Can this be done?
Chen Ya was overjoyed, he can only say that the system is too powerful!But on the surface, he still pretended to be confused and said:

"I don't understand it at all."

"Hahahaha, you don't know how to read, of course you don't understand."

The stall owner laughed, while Chen Ya left happily, and quickly searched for anything related to the blueprint.

After a while, Chen Ya found two other things in front of a booth.

Variant Creature Illustrated Book
Price: 5 steel coins
……

Wasteland map (100km)

Price: 10 steel coins
……

"Boss, can I have a look?"

Chen Ya asked, but it was a pity that the main board said with a straight face:

"If you don't buy it, don't watch it!"

Not everyone is tolerant towards children. The stall owner could tell that Chen Ya couldn't afford things, so of course he wouldn't let him watch them.

"Go ahead and play, don't disturb my business!"

But at this moment, the stall owner started to drive people away, so Chen Ya could only walk to one side. There was no way, even if the system could record the information, it would be useless if people refused to let them watch.

Not long after, Chen Ya found a pharmacist's booth.

Low-grade anti-radiation Ning (blue)

Price: 10 steel coins
Drug effect: 60 minutes
……

This is a necessary medicine for scavenging outside walls. After using this medicine, it can enhance the body's radiation resistance within a certain period of time, thereby allowing it to enter certain high-radiation areas.

Of course!
This was not what Chen Ya needed. He looked at another purple potion.

Low-grade radonin (purple)

Price: 5 steel coins
Efficacy: Treat third-degree radiation sickness.

……

As the name suggests, after using this medicine, it can effectively treat radiation sickness and eliminate radiation in the body.

Chen Ya is currently suffering from third-level radiation sickness, and he just needs a low-grade Radiation-Reducing Ning, but even if the Radiation-Reducing Ning only needs five steel coins, and the price is half cheaper than the Anti-Radiation Ning, he still cannot afford it.

Paralysis, no money!
Seeing the price of Jiangfuning, Chen Ya had the urge to cry, but he still looked at the pharmacist and asked:
"Well, can the low-level radiation-reducing Ning be cheaper?"

The pharmacist could tell at a glance that this little guy had radiation sickness, so he thought about it and said:
"A minimum of four steel coins."

"can not be lower?"

Chen Ya tried to ask, but the pharmacist shook his head and said:

"Little guy, this is the lowest price."

Seeing that Chen Ya still wanted to bargain, the pharmacist could only helplessly say:
"If the gathering place hadn't stipulated the price of potions, do you think the low-level Jiangbianning only sells five steel plutoniums?"

Obviously, in terms of potions, there is a clear price regulation in the gathering place, otherwise the price of low-grade Jiangfu Ning would probably be more than five steel coins.

"Ok."

Chen Ya couldn't laugh or cry, in fact, no matter how low the price was, he couldn't afford it at all.

Except for the low-level potions, Chen Ya didn't even bother to look at the prices of other middle- and high-level potions, after all, those things were too far away from him.

After finding out the prices, Chen Ya went to find Big Nose and the others.

After a while, four people were seen in front of a booth.

However, Niu Pi looked at a few snacks on the booth, and there was a saliva around his mouth, and the other three were not much better.

This made Chen Ya a little curious, so he looked at the things on the booth.

Fuling mustard
Price: five bottle caps

……

Shine chewing gum

Price: three steel coins

……

Nima!

Chen Ya's eyes widened, and he suddenly realized that he couldn't even afford a packet of mustard.

At this moment, Alex said with disgust on his face:
"Look at your talents, isn't it mustard? I used to eat it when I was young."

Hearing this, Niu Pi couldn't help but curiously said:

"What does mustard taste like?"

"Salty."

Alex replied casually, and Zilin also asked curiously:
"What about Xuanmai chewing gum?"

"Um……"

Alex thought for a while, and said with certainty:
"Saltier than mustard."

puff! ! ! !

Chen Ya burst into laughter. Big Nose had eaten pickled mustard. He believed it, but was the chewing gum salty?

Pure nonsense!

Have you ever eaten candy?
