After talking to Liu Kai for twenty minutes and understanding the basic structure of the base, Qian Linwan and Qian Chengxi strolled on the stone road inside the base.

The situation inside here is better than outside. There are soldiers patrolling frequently, and the food and clothing of the people coming and going seems to be pretty good.

A faintly visible super-tall building in the distance turned out to be a wall. Under the influence of the haze, it felt like a mirage.

Continuing to walk towards the main road, the clarity is a little higher. The height is at least 100 meters by visual inspection, and the length can't be seen at the edge.

They also found that there were various windows and even living balconies on the wall, which were integrated into the building.

I just communicated with Liu Kai to discuss whether we can open a pharmacy outside this area, and the answer is no.

The management of the periphery was not as good as she thought. Important grain stores and drug stores must be state-owned.

She could choose to open a shop within the walls.

After walking for 20 minutes, I arrived in front of the wall. I looked up at the huge wall that could not be seen to the end, and I felt a sense of emotion in my heart. This is the power of the country.

She took out the pass Liu Kai gave her, registered, and went in through the gate with Qian Chengxi. After passing three levels of checkpoints, she finally entered the service hall.

The spacious and bright hall was more upscale than the ones in City B. The world inside surprised her. Apart from being busier with people coming and going, it didn't seem to be much different from before the apocalypse.

The bunker is built upwards here, that is, the underground castle and the above-ground buildings are integrated into one. It extends in all directions and there are high-rise buildings everywhere.

She walked out of the hall, and the ground under her feet was all asphalt. The lanes and sidewalks were colored, there were traffic lights at the intersection, and vehicles were moving on the road.

She and Qian Chengxi looked at each other and went shopping separately.

The place where Qian Lin walked late was a commercial district with many empty shops. Only some shops selling daily necessities such as groceries and carpentry were open.

She went to the state-owned supermarket.

The waiter stopped her and said, "Miss, go in this way." After that, he pointed to a passage that looked like a security gate, "Just come out and come out this way."

After speaking, he took the person's shopping list, glanced at it, and then stepped aside to let the person leave.

Qian Lin nodded and made two beeps above his head as he walked in.

She didn't have anything to buy, she just went in to see what was inside.

Water, compressed biscuits, daily necessities, various electrical appliances, a small drug store, and some pre-apocalyptic tobacco and alcohol.

There were long queues in the butcher shop and vegetable section. She looked around and found that there seemed to be only pork, and the vegetables only had some high-temperature-resistant white winter melons and tomatoes.

The supermarket was not big, and she could almost see it at a glance. She took a bottle of water and two packs of cigarettes, paid and went out.

The cigarettes were so expensive that they charged her a total of 67 grams of gold.

When the waiter at the gate saw the list, a look of longing appeared on his face. He glanced at Qian Linwan from the corner of his eye and saw the knife on her waist. He smiled slightly, handed back the list and stretched out his hands politely, "Please put the things away. Please.”

"Yeah." Qian Linwan left without caring. She looked at her watch and saw that it was already 5:[-] in the evening.

It was obviously almost dinner time, but there was no smell of food in the air, and not even water vapor could be seen. I could only see numb people walking on the beautiful streets.

The plastic trash cans nailed to the ground on the commercial streets were filled with dust. This also reminded her of the objective reality - no matter how similar the shapes and objects were, she would never be able to go back to her previous life of worry-free food and clothing.

As she walked further inside, she saw some people sitting numbly on the roadside, eating compressed biscuits, holding half a bottle of water in their arms.

The bottle was very dirty and full of scratches, which made the water inside the bottle even more turbid.

When some people heard the movement, they looked up and glanced at the well-dressed Qian Linwan, then saw the guard not far away, and instantly lowered their heads with numb expressions.

The guards were arranged by Liu Kai, so they didn't need to be with him, but they had to keep a supportable distance.

She saw some high-rise buildings, all of which had fully enclosed balconies and windows with bulletproof nets. The buildings were very tall and covered a large area. Most of them were concave-shaped, but they all had access control. She looked at the people who entered. Facial recognition is required to enter the building.

She is not an Aboriginal person, and her pass only allows her to roam underground and cannot enter some residential areas and work areas.

After walking for a while, everything was under construction in the back, and the wind and sand hit her body. There was really nothing to see. Qian Linwan walked to a sheltered place, shook the sand and dust out of her hair, and changed into a new one. Face mask.

Then someone came up.

"Hello, do you want to rent land here?" The person who came smiled flatteringly. The originally dark blue clothes turned into gray-blue, but it could be seen that he had worked hard to keep it clean.

His lips were dry, and there was an obvious red bloodshot mark on his lip skin that he had torn off. His body exuded a strange smell that blended well with the surrounding smells. Qian Linwan's nose was almost immune to it.

The man did not shake hands with her, but just raised his hands to express politeness, kept a safe distance, and took out his ID card to indicate, "My name is Chen Zhuangwei, and I am in charge of the sales of the land rental business here."

Qian Chengxi nodded slightly and asked, "Is there any other land you can rent here?"

"Shop land."

"If it's convenient, let's go to the office to communicate." Chen Zhuangwei pointed to the office not far away, "It's right next to the state-owned supermarket."

The two nodded and walked to the state-owned enterprise. There was a large bulletin board that just blocked the agency store next to it, so she ignored it. The various promotional papers plastered on the publicity boards and shop windows are exactly the same as before the apocalypse.

She glanced around and saw that the guard had no intention of following her in. She followed Chen Zhuangwei into a simple container room.

There is a staff member sweeping the glass in the living room with a feather duster. It is very dusty and needs to be cleaned frequently. There were many people queuing up at the consultation window for renting a house. Many people turned to look at Qian Linwan until they entered the internal VIP room.

"Who is it?" someone in the crowd muttered.

Chen Zhuangwei went into the tea room to register and poured two cups of cold water. He was a little thirsty but the amount of water he could drink every day was limited. He hoped she could leave some for him later.

Qian Linwan didn't take it, but just said thank you.

Chen Zhuangwei took out the key and opened a cabinet. When he took it out, he took a file bag. After removing the water handbag, he opened the file bag and took out a floor plan. It was a floor plan of this area. There were many X's.

"The places marked with an Stores and the like.

There was also a store, and I heard that food was sold there. Chen Zhuangwei smacked his lips at the thought, "Now that we are short of water and food, what everyone wants most is food."

"Where's the pharmacy?"

Chen Zhuangwei was stunned for a moment, "There is a hospital in the central city, and there is a small pharmacy in a state-owned supermarket. Although it is more expensive to see a doctor without medical insurance, everyone has little money. They only treat minor illnesses and die from serious ones, so it is not bad."

"You may not be able to buy medicines with gold now, do you want to prescribe them here?" Chen Zhuangwei's eyes lit up, as if he wanted to know who a big shot she was.

To be able to open a pharmacy here, one must either be a lonely fool or have the strength.

And obviously this woman with clear muscle lines, a knife on her body, and explosive movements, there is no doubt that she is a powerful person.

"Do you know what are the requirements for opening a pharmacy in Central City?" Qian Chengxi took out a piece of chocolate and handed it over.
