Reborn in the end of the world, I scavenged in the empty city and bought for free

The young couple really had no choice but to come here today holding out for a glimmer of hope.

Gu Tongwan didn't agree immediately, but said hesitantly: "How about this, I'll let you know later, but you can bring the air conditioner to me first. The technician usually comes back to repair it at night, but the price will definitely be higher. I can't guarantee that the air conditioner will be ready tomorrow, maybe in two or three days. After all, there are too many orders now."

Although they did not agree immediately, it was obvious that the young couple's expressions were much more relaxed. At least there was room for negotiation, unlike the electronics store which either refused right away or asked for an exorbitant amount of money.

At this time, the girl kept wiping her sweat. If you look closely, you can see that her face is actually very pale, but it is not the kind of natural white skin. Instead, it seems to be a sign of long-term dehydration and some heatstroke.

At this time, the boy noticed the two big pots, mainly because there was a smell wafting from outside. Gu Tongwan had just moved the two big pots out from the inner room. They contained iced herbal tea, and there was a faint aroma of medicine wafting from the room temperature side.

The taste of the herbal tea was very obvious, much stronger than that of the so-called "herbal tea supply points". Looking at the brown tea soup, the boy obviously swallowed his saliva.

He and his girlfriend were in such a hurry to go out that they didn't even bring any water with them. Now they just felt their tongues were dry and their throats were on fire.

After Gu Tongwan noticed the girl's strange behavior, he deliberately opened the lid of one of the soup pots. The soup was chilled and water droplets could be seen on the outside of the pot.

"Herbal tea, 5 points per cup, you can try it."

Originally, it was not intended for people to taste it, but seeing how embarrassed the two people looked, Gu Tongwan finally pulled out a small plastic cup, poured about 200 milliliters into it and handed it over.

The boy was obviously very thirsty, but he still handed the herbal tea to his girlfriend next to him.

The girlfriend was a little embarrassed and was about to shake her head, but she heard Gu Tongwan's voice, "You don't seem to be very familiar with it, so you should drink some. It's iced, so it will be more comfortable to drink."

When the girl heard this, she looked at her boyfriend again.

The boy quickly coaxed her, "Drink it quickly, if it tastes good, let's drink some." Although the five-point tea is slightly more expensive than the herbal tea shop set up by the government, the boy thinks the soup is better than what he bought before.

After drinking it, the girl immediately felt much better, but she was embarrassed to finish it, so she left a small half for the boy.

Seeing that the two of them had a good relationship, Gu Tongwan didn't dislike the young couple.

Thinking of what they just said, he asked, "Is it difficult to see a doctor at the base clinic recently?"

The boy nodded. "It's very difficult. Unless you have connections, you have to wait in line for two or three hours just to register. Once you get in, the doctor won't ask too many questions and will just prescribe herbal tea or some diluted Huoxiang Zhengqi liquid. Also, the inpatient department of the health center is already full. The beds are tight. The elderly at home who can't make it can only lie down at home. It's not easy to take the elderly in such hot weather. There's no air conditioning in the outpatient department, and everyone is in a bad mood. There was even a medical dispute yesterday afternoon."

Although Gu Tongwan knew that the medical situation in the health center was tight, he did not expect it to be so serious that there would be medical disputes.

The girl was in much better spirits now, so she asked, "Boss, do you make these herbal teas yourself? Have you ever considered selling them to the office building?"

Gu Tongwan hadn't thought about this question, so he shook his head and said, "I'm just trying to sell it. I can prepare two large pots every day, and I plan to take the opportunity to sell some when someone brings an air conditioner over."

The girl had just finished drinking the herbal tea and was still lingering on the surface. The cup she drank was not only refreshing but also had a strong medicinal aroma. She really felt a lot more comfortable after drinking it.

The heat in my body seemed to be dispelled all at once, and my body became comfortable.

Thinking about the herbal teas she had drunk before which were almost the same as boiled water, the girl suddenly thought that it would be great if she could drink this kind of herbal tea in the office so that she could refresh herself a little while working.

But Gu Tongwan obviously hadn't thought about this, so the girl simply said, "Boss, if you don't mind, I'll promote it for you in the company. I work in the company in front. I think your herbal tea is not expensive, and it tastes good, so it must sell well."

Gu Tongwan certainly wouldn't stand in the way of free business, so he smiled and said, "Really? Then please help me promote the business, including air conditioner repairs. If you find no problems with your air conditioner, you can also help me introduce some regular customers."

The boy and the girl suddenly realized what Gu Tongwan meant, and immediately looked at each other, feeling a little ecstatic in their hearts.

What the boss lady said means that there is no problem with the air conditioning repair, right?

The girl and the boy stayed in the room for about twenty minutes, and mentioned some of the conditions in the health center. Gu Tongwan gained a more comprehensive understanding of the health center.

At the current stage, the health center does face three major problems: shortage of staff, shortage of medicinal materials, and shortage of wards.

At present, large medical institutions in the base, such as regular hospitals, are concentrated in the inner circle near the business circle. There are some well-built small businesses gathered nearby. The hardware conditions of the hospitals are naturally the best, but the people who can live in them are either rich or noble. This kind of best medical institution is also the so-called special supply for the powerful and wealthy.

In addition to large hospitals, the most common facilities in the base are health centers. There are currently three health centers in the inner circle and five health centers in the outer circle.

The scale of the health center is basically a three-story building, similar to the floors of a former teaching building. There are about a dozen consulting rooms on each floor, but only the third floor is the inpatient department. The number of inpatients that a health center can accommodate is six people per room, and one floor can accommodate less than 150 inpatients at most, so the beds have always been very tight.

Furthermore, after the end of the world, medical device factories suffered a devastating blow. Many medical drugs were rescued during the end of the world. Traumatic drugs can still be used even if they are expired. Expired drugs, as long as they have not changed in quality, can still be used normally for common diseases. However, surgical instruments and medicinal materials are extremely scarce.

The elderly in the young couple's family had myocardial infarction and hypertension before the apocalypse. After the apocalypse, they have been relying on various channels to obtain medicines, but they are expensive. A box of antihypertensive drugs costs almost a thousand points. Even though the family has a stable income, other people dare not get sick easily. Before the extreme heat came, the whole family insisted on jogging outside the community every day just to exercise, otherwise their body functions would decline.

Now the sick elderly at home are feeling uncomfortable at home. The hot and sultry weather has made the elderly fall into a coma in bed. The air conditioner at home has been broken. If it gets worse, not to mention the elderly, even the young people like them will not be able to bear it.

Although the two young lovers complained, they were at least full of hope for the future and even decided to get married after the extreme heat was over.

At present, there is no formal marriage registration office in the base, and getting married is just a simple household registration at the relevant agency, which means that two married people can share a brand name card, with one of them being the secondary cardholder.

However, due to the fear of marriage fraud or relationship fraud, many people will not actually set up a secondary card even if they are in a relationship after the end of the world. Otherwise, if they set it up and the person runs away the next day, it would be a waste of time.

In the end, the young couple bought two bottles of herbal tea. Because they didn't bring a kettle, they spent a total of 30 points including the containers. When they left with the two pots of herbal tea, the young couple looked hurried, and they couldn't wait to share them with their family.

Just after eleven o'clock in the morning, Jiang Tian rode a motorcycle around and finally found Gu Tongwan's shop.

Jiang Tian took adequate sun protection measures. She wore a sun protection suit, a sun protection shawl on the outside, a motorcycle cap, and even had sun protection gloves.

She was riding a small sheep-style motorcycle, which was very small but still powered by gasoline. On weekdays, Jiang Tian would only ride it when going to the Hunter's Guild. If it weren't for the hot weather and not wanting to walk, Jiang Tian would not be willing to drive out. After all, motorcycles also consume oil, and each trip would consume some gasoline.

Jiang Tian is now a C-level hunter and has recently been preparing for the B-level hunter exam. The exam, which was originally scheduled for the end of the month, was indefinitely extended to the end of December due to weather reasons.

This was the first time the two had met in private since their last encounter in the northern forest, but they kept in touch every day using social software. Jiang Tian even asked Gu Tongwan to join a group chat of psychics that she had joined before.

Basically, all of them are people with special abilities in the base, including those from the Hunter Guild, members of the Self-Defense Force or the Guard, and even ordinary people with special abilities.

The psychics inside often exchanged their experiences in using their psychics. In addition to the earth, metal, fire, water, and ice psychics that she had seen, there were also plant psychics and frost psychics that evolved from water and ice psychics. In addition to these, there were even wind psychics, electricity psychics, and the rare poison psychics that she had never seen before.

These are the majority of the superpower types that have appeared in the base at present. When everyone was discussing, they even mentioned that they had seen very high-level psychics and space powers in the Wanderer Organization.

However, this kind of spatial ability is different from the portable space she knows. This spatial ability can allow people to have a legendary small range, compress the body, and freely change the body into tall, short, fat and thin to adapt to various combat situations.

In his previous life, Gu Tongwan didn't come into contact with many people with superpowers. Even in the Wanderers Organization, those who possessed superpowers were only a very rare few, and the highest level was only a C-level superpower. The first time he saw an S-level superpower was in the northern forest.

Jiang Tian pushed the motorcycle slightly under the awning at the door of the store, and then took off her helmet. Her bangs were already wet with sweat, and her pretty little face was sweaty at this time, and the dimples at the corners of her mouth were still obvious.

"Sister Gu, is there any water? I'm dying of thirst."

Jiang Tian was very friendly as soon as she came in, and there was no sense of strangeness or estrangement between them due to the three years of separation.

Gu Tongwan immediately brought a cup of not-too-iced herbal tea.

Jiang Tian moved very quickly. In less than a minute, she finished a cup of more than 400 ml of herbal tea like a cow drinking water. Her breathing became steady at this time. In addition, there was a battery-powered electric fan in the shop, which made her feel much more comfortable than on the way here.

In recent years, Jiang Tian has mainly served as Jiang Chi's deputy in the Hunter's Guild. Although the girl is young, she actually has her own ideas and never holds Jiang Chi back. In just three years, Jiang Tian has risen from an F-level psychic when her powers awakened to a C-level now, and it is even possible that she is a B-level psychic.

In fact, Jiang Tian’s current strength is already enough to be compared with ordinary B-level psychics, but the several level tests she has participated in were always terminated due to various accidents, resulting in her B-level ability never being recognized.

Different from Jiang Zhi's gravity-related ability, Jiang Tian is best at water-related abilities, and Jiang Tian has become quite proficient in using the water-related abilities. In less than a few seconds, he can conjure up a column of water in the palm of his hand, and can even transform the water column into various powerful water waves in a short period of time.

Previously, when Jiang Chi's superpowers went out of control, Jiang Tian even used his mental power to control the physical abilities affected by the runaway superpowers, and finally managed to hold on.

If Jiang Zhi is a gifted psychic, then Jiang Tian is definitely an acquired one through hard work.

Now Jiang Tian has grown into a beautiful young lady with a sweet and pretty appearance. There are many people with special abilities pursuing her, but Jiang Tian is not considering love at the moment.

Jiang Tian looked around the small shop. In fact, she had just come out of the guild. The "Beehive Guild" she belonged to was one of the most famous guilds in the base. After everyone witnessed Jiang Chi's hunting in the last hunting operation, more psychics joined the "Beehive Guild". The guild, which originally had less than a hundred people, suddenly increased to a hundred and fifty people, which had met the application requirements for a large guild.

Taking into account the increasing number of members in the guild, the president of the Beehive Guild directly rented a previously vacant office upstairs. Recently, he also used his connections to install two large vertical air-conditioning cabinets on each floor. Even when the temperature outside is over 50 degrees, the temperature in the office can be maintained at around 30 degrees.

So even though they know that the Hunter Association has not assigned any missions yet, the hunters are still willing to get off work from nine to five like white-collar workers, just to enjoy the air conditioning in the office.

Jiang Tian and Jiang Chi still live together. After the two siblings entered the base and the Hunter's Guild, they accumulated points bit by bit and changed houses several times in the inner circle. Finally, they bought a large house of more than 90 square meters in a community a few kilometers away from the villa area in the inner circle. The house has three bedrooms and two living rooms, with one room for each brother and sister. Thanks to their efforts, their living standards have gradually improved, and even air conditioning has been installed in their home.

Jiang Tian glanced at the dozens of air conditioners placed in the room, then turned to Gu Tongwan and said in surprise: "Sister Gu, your business is really good."
