Reborn in the end of the world, I scavenged in the empty city and bought for free
Chapter 350 "Luxury" Cookies
Jiang Tian seemed to have thought of something, so she quickly went to the trunk of her motorcycle and took out a bag.
"Sister Gu, these are the cookies my brother asked me to bring you. They are sweet and delicious."
Gu Tongwan couldn't refuse, so he could only take the bag from her.
The bag was not big, but it felt heavy when I took it. I took a glance inside and saw many beautifully packaged biscuits.
In fact, this kind of high-end biscuits are also available in supply and marketing cooperatives or large shopping malls, but they are expensive. A pack of biscuits costs thirty or forty points, which is equivalent to two days' wages for an ordinary person. Boxed biscuits with slightly more exquisite packaging can even sell for two hundred points.
In fact, there are still many so-called "luxury goods" in large shopping malls. These luxury goods are different from diamonds, designer bags and various high-end brands before the end of the world. Now anything that is slightly rare can be called a "luxury item", such as exquisite biscuits, because these biscuits contain more sugar. Now sugar is a rare item in the base. A bag of only 50 grams of white sugar costs points, so you know how expensive these sweet biscuits are.
Jiang Tian weighed the bag in her hand and found it weighed at least two kilograms. This bag might be half a year's salary for someone else.
Jiang Tian was worried that she would not accept it, so she immediately smiled and said, "My brother's worth has risen rapidly. After the last hunting competition, the guild gave him 10% of the shares in order to keep my brother. I'm not showing off, I just want to tell you that our lives are really good now, and I'm very grateful to Sister Gu for helping me and my brother back then."
Seeing that things had come to this, Gu Tongwan stopped refusing.
At this moment, Jiang Tian's curiosity was completely attracted by the air conditioner at the back, and she said with emotion: "Sister Gu, are all these air conditioners here waiting to be repaired?"
"Well, yes, most of them are brought here by nearby residents and small companies."
"How many maintenance technicians have you hired? Can they handle it?"
In fact, it’s no wonder that Jiang Tian thought so, because she didn’t see any maintenance technicians in the store. Compared with the repair shops she had been to before, where the atmosphere was bustling and tense, this place seemed a lot quieter.
"The master usually works the night shift, so it's a part-time job." Gu Tongwan explained.
Jiang Tian felt very strange. Even if she was working the night shift, could she really repair so many air conditioners?
However, she didn't like asking other people about their affairs, and since Gu Tongwan had no intention of continuing to explain, she simply changed the subject.
"The beast tide has been suppressed recently, but the weather is bad. It's hot now, and many people have suffered from heat stroke. There have also been many self-immolation incidents in the outer circle, and they were all caused by the psychics losing control of their powers. The government has already cooperated with the Hunter Association, and I think an announcement will be made soon on this matter."
"Yes, I have seen these self-immolators." Gu Tongwan told Jiang Tian what happened last time, and Jiang Tian was shocked.
Although she had seen many big scenes and participated in many battles, she had heard that when these psychics self-immolated, their powers would go out of control, and the province's power level would instantly rise by several levels. Previously, a B-level psychic from their guild went to deal with such incidents, but was even attacked by a self-immolator who was originally only a D-level psychic, resulting in severe burns. He is currently lying in a ward in the health center.
The two were chatting when suddenly a sudden sound of brakes was heard outside, interrupting their conversation.
The noise outside in this hot weather made one's heart feel as if it was being squeezed tightly, and the heartbeat was suddenly raised to the throat.
Gu Tongwan frowned as he walked out the door with Jiang Tian, and saw a black sports car crashing directly into the lamppost in front of them. The entire hood was flipped over, which showed how fast the car was going, at least no less than 100.
At this time, the car door was pushed open from the inside. A man insisted on wearing a suit on a hot day, but his suit jacket was wide open, revealing a floral shirt and a big gold chain underneath. The man was also wearing a pair of sunglasses, his hair was a little long, and he was wearing leather shoes. As soon as he got out, he was choked by the smoking hood. After coughing a few times, he immediately cursed: "Damn it, who the hell put a safety cone in the middle of the road in such a good time? Isn't this harming people?"
This man exudes the air of a second-rate person, and gives people a feeling of being frivolous and arrogant. However, the car he drives is excellent. It belongs to a series of luxury cars before the end of the world, a model under Porsche. Now, it is a luxury among cars, and in the end of the world, it can even be called a plaything of the powerful. It has almost become a symbol of status.
The man looked to be around 26 or 27 years old, not very old. After taking off his sunglasses, he revealed a face that looked listless for a long time, especially the obvious blue circles under his eyes. Coupled with his thin and fragile body, he looked as if he could be knocked down with just one punch.
The man was still cursing, but he didn't feel sorry for his sports car at all, as if the car was just a toy in his eyes.
The man raised his head, but did not look at Tong Wan and Jiang Tian immediately. The main reason was that they were both standing under the awning, and the shadow covered them, so he could not see their appearance clearly.
He ripped open his collar in annoyance, revealing his deep collarbone and chest that looked like ribs.
The man took off his glasses, revealing his single-lidded eyes. He looked at the shop without a sign with contempt and a little madness, and he felt more and more that he had found the right address.
A friend of mine told me before that there is an electrical appliance repair shop here that charges cheap and reasonable prices. His relative has already had one repaired, and the price was only one-third of that at the electrical appliance repair shop. Most importantly, it is very fast and can be fixed within three days.
The man's name is Zheng Fan. The old man in his family is the nominal third in command of the base. Why is it nominal? The main reason is that, apart from the base director and the CEO of the first district, most of the power is actually in the hands of real S-level psychics. Now that Chen Yanxi and Shen Lian each hold most of the psychics in their hands, the power in his father's hands has naturally been weakened a lot.
Zheng Fan lit a cigarette, sweat pouring down his forehead, but he endured the heat to act cool. After all, this suit was ordered from the mall, and he spent nearly two thousand points on it. With this suit, he could pick up many beautiful girls. After all, as the saying goes, clothes make the man, and saddles make the horse. Isn't that the truth?
Zheng Fan then noticed two people standing on the awning in front, so he walked over and asked, "Hey, do you know of an electrical appliance repair shop nearby? It was the one that was advertised on the forum before."
In fact, he had glanced at the advertisement by chance, and at that time he thought that the price was most likely misleading and that they were just trying to defraud people of their money. However, the air conditioners of several of his friends had been repaired, and it took as little as one day. Zheng Fan had no choice but to believe it.
In addition, the cooling function of several air conditioners in the villa is not very good, and we need to add refrigerants.
Logically speaking, Zheng Fan's father is the third in command at the base, so he doesn't need to add refrigerant to the air conditioner himself. However, the difficulty lies in the fact that air conditioners are indeed rare commodities nowadays, and the weather is hot. The air conditioners he bought are basically running 24 hours a day, which leads to great wear and tear of the original second-hand air conditioners, and the few refrigerants in them are gradually becoming ineffective.
The electrical appliance store replied that they had to wait for the black market to deliver the refrigerant, which would take at least a week. Now the appliance store could only repair some internal spare parts.
Zheng Fan was used to a good life. Even during the extremely hot weather a few years ago, he still enjoyed delicious food, delicacies from land and sea, and sweet dreams in air-conditioned rooms under the protection of his home.
But he didn't expect the situation this time to be so special that even his father's identity was of little use. He happened to know that there was a repair shop here, so Zheng Fan planned to come here in person to find out the situation. If there really was such a shop, he would directly ask the repairman to bring the materials to the villa to add refrigerant, so that he could continue to have the party tonight.
Zheng Fan moved closer and immediately felt a cool breeze, which turned out to be coming from inside the store.
In fact, it was because when Jiang Tian came out just now, she used her water-based ability to sprinkle some water in every corner of the empty store, making the store cooler.
Gu Tongwan was quite surprised at the time. He didn't expect that Jiang Tian also had a built-in cooling function.
Jiang Tian smiled sheepishly and said, "It's not that magical actually. You haven't seen ice and frost ability users. High-level ones can directly transform into a large block of ice, which can actually act like an air conditioner when placed in a corner."
Speaking of frost users, the first person that Gu Tongwan thought of was Chen Yanxi, and she immediately fell into a state of absent-mindedness. It was not until Jiang Tian called her several times that she raised her head embarrassedly.
"Sister Gu, what are you thinking about? You seem to be thinking about it so seriously."
"Nothing, I just thought of something suddenly." Gu Tongwan was too embarrassed to say that he was thinking about his childhood sweetheart, so he could only change the subject awkwardly. Fortunately, Jiang Tian did not continue to ask questions, and then Zheng Fan got off the car and walked over to him cursing.
When Zheng Fan came closer, he saw that they were two girls, so he controlled his facial expression a little.
Zheng Fan has a common problem, which is that he has two completely different attitudes towards men and women, especially towards men, he can be said to be extremely contemptuous and arrogant, but towards young girls, he is smiling and frivolous, and if they are good-looking, he pretends to be gentle, but in fact it cannot change his nature as a scum.
To this day, no one knows how many girls’ feelings have been toyed with by him, because Zheng Fan is not stable at all. He thinks that falling in love is like eating fast food. Only by constantly changing the taste to keep it fresh can he experience the fun of it.
At this time, Jiang Tian, who was a little forward, raised her head with some displeasure. She instinctively hated men like Zheng Fan. Just by looking at the sports car, she knew that he must be some so-called second-generation rich man in the base.
When Zheng Fan saw Jiang Tian's pretty and sweet face, his eyes immediately lit up, as if he had discovered a treasure. His whole attitude changed all of a sudden, and the smile on his face became even brighter.
"Hello, beautiful lady, are you from the store?" He walked over and just as he was about to continue talking, he saw a figure rushing out and blocking Jiang Tian in front of him.
Originally Zheng Fan was about to burst out with a curse word, wondering who was so blind as to stop him from picking up girls, but he found that the girl in front of him was another beautiful girl. And not just ordinary beautiful. Her skin was as white as a peeled egg. Her facial features were extremely superior when taken individually, and even more stunning when put together. She could be said to be a standard beauty.
Zheng Fan boasted that he had seen so many beauties, but none of them could be compared with the one in front of him. Even the little internet celebrity Liu Cheng who was doing publicity all day could only be regarded as a beauty with an atmosphere. The one in front of him was the real gift from God. This face could be said to be popular with both men and women.
Zheng Fan was just about to introduce himself when he saw the beautiful woman pulling the sweet girl and walking into the store, ignoring him.
Under normal circumstances, Zheng Fan would have been angry, but at the moment he had other thoughts, so he couldn't get angry for the time being and quickly followed him into the store.
As a result, the temperature in the store was about 7 or 8 degrees lower than outside, and the aroma of herbal tea was wafting in the store.
I sniffed and found two soup pots next to me. The smell seemed to be coming from them.
Zheng Fan raised his eyebrows and looked around the store again. The store was only about 50 to 60 square meters, with only a simple cash register and a few stools. There was also a small room inside, but it seemed to be filled with various air-conditioning outdoor and indoor units.
"Excuse me, two ladies. This is the first time we meet. This is my business card." Zheng Fan smiled and handed over the business card he carried with him.
Gu Tongwan took it with a cold attitude, glanced at it, and saw a smile on it [Feifan Yisheng Culture Investment Co., Ltd.]
Anyway, I don’t know what this cultural company does. I only know that the man in front of me exudes the aura of a second-rate person, which makes people feel uncomfortable.
Zheng Fan could hardly take his eyes off Gu Tongwan at this moment. After all, it was rare to see such a beautiful and elegant lady in the apocalypse. In addition, the spiritual spring water that Gu Tongwan drank all year round nourished her skin. Unlike the slightly rough skin of others, her skin was so white that it seemed to be glowing. Even Jiang Tian, who boasted about her good skin, felt envious. Not to mention that anyone who saw Gu Tongwan up close would be impressed by her plain face.
Zheng Fan saw Gu Tongwan looking at him warily, so he immediately explained: "Just treat it as an acquaintance, as a friend, no no no, as an online friend is also fine."
"I opened this shop to do business, not to make friends." Gu Tongwan frowned, looking like he was going to chase the customer away.
Zheng Fan suddenly came to his senses, and smiled, "I'm here to repair the air conditioner. I have several air conditioners in my villa area. Can you please contact the repairman?"
