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

The acid rain, which the base had originally expected to stop that evening, did not stop until about 1 a.m. The air was filled with the insoluble smell of sulfur dioxide, and people instantly felt their breath getting hot after inhaling it, as if a small knife had suddenly entered their throat, scraping their fragile throat fiercely.

Gu Tongwan estimated that he slept too much in the afternoon, and now he was lying in bed feeling full of energy.

She made about eighty buns in the afternoon. Apart from the ones given to Chen Yanxi, she and Yan Fan still ate buns in the evening. There were about sixty-five buns left. She put ten buns into one bag, three bags in total, one for Liao Yunyun and Jiang Tian, ​​one for the guesthouse owner and Xiao Li. The village chief had already sent flour, so she had no plans to continue sending things over for the time being. Although sometimes the intention is good, asking people to show too much favor will only make things difficult for them.

After dividing them, there were still more than thirty buns left, which were all put in the freezer for quick freezing. It is very convenient to take them out and heat them up for ten minutes when I feel lazy and want to eat them.

As for the dumplings, she didn't make too many this time. There were still about fifty of them left, which was probably enough for her and Yan Fan to have two meals.

Since he couldn't sleep, Gu Tongwan simply went into the space, mainly to see the current material reserves. After all, it has been almost four months since he entered the base, and some energy and food will inevitably be gradually reduced due to use.

After entering the system, it was still the familiar room with white walls on all sides. From a distance, there was no end to the corridor, but when you actually walked through it, you could see a place similar to the "Peach Blossom Spring". The sky was also blue, there were lawns and gentle light, and a large area of ​​ridges could be seen ahead. Less than ten meters away was her warehouse, which contained the supplies she had looted from department stores, supermarkets and various places before the end of the world.

Currently, eggplants and potatoes are planted in half an acre of land. In the future, I want to continue trading vegetables with Sister Pan and the Cai family. For this purpose, it would be more convenient to plant some vegetables and fruits that can be found in the base.

At this time, the electronic screen of the system appeared in front of her eyes, and she could operate the pages on it freely.

[The current space system score is 9987, and the host can stay in the space for 49 minutes.]

Gu Tongwan sneered. This space was really stingy. It must have known that her intention of coming in was just to check the warehouse, so it didn't give her too much time to stay.

In fact, Gu Tongwan discovered it a long time ago. Because her consciousness was connected to the space, the system could quickly detect her purpose of entering the space and use it to calculate the time she was allowed to stay in the space.

If you enter the space for agricultural product operations, that is, to work in the fields, the space will generally give a maximum of three hours.

If it is just a normal warehouse inspection, the system only allows one hour.

If you want to wash or go to the bathroom for convenience, the time given by the system will be more stringent, basically fifteen to twenty minutes. Once this time is exceeded, you will be forced to exit the space regardless of whether you are wearing clothes or not.

Thinking of the last time when she ran to the space to take a cold shower because of the hot weather, she was humming a song and slowly preparing to put on her clothes when she suddenly felt oppressed by a brute force. Before she could come to her senses, she appeared naked on the bed, without even having time to take out her clothes.

After coming to his senses, he refocused his attention on the projection screen in front of him. He only needed to lightly touch it with his fingertips, and the picture suddenly jumped up, and the content on it changed accordingly.

The remaining food supplies are as follows: 270 catties of compressed biscuits (2758 packs)

Canned fruit x 140 cans (including 30 cans of homemade canned fruit), ice cream: 368 pieces, individual combat rations: 35 packs, canned meat, canned tuna x 95, roast chicken x 22, mineral water: 500 ml x 28 pieces (30 bottles per piece), 18 barrels of bottled water x 2560L, barbecue: 535 portions, stewed food: 78 portions, rice: 259 portions, steamed buns x 400 pieces, pork, beef, etc. x 500 kilograms each, wheat, rice and flour x 560 kilograms each, beans x 100 kilograms each, various vegetables x 500 kilograms, self-heating hot pot, rice x 157 boxes, milk tea takeaway drinks x 400 cups, instant noodles x 400 packs (boxes), seafood x 400 kilograms

The rest are some vegetables and fruits that she grows. As long as they are planted on the black soil, they will be harvested, so there is no need to worry about shortages.

It seems that the most consumed items are still biscuits. For example, compressed biscuits are the food she eats to quickly replenish energy when she is hungry after going out. The number of high-energy chocolate bars such as Snickers in the space is now at least half less than before.

In fact, the food that is consumed the most is fast food, such as self-heating rice and instant noodles, which can be eaten immediately without cooking with just hot water. When we were in the empty city, sometimes there was no kitchen and we were too lazy to cook, so Gu Tongwan ate this kind of food the most.

Although the quantity has decreased, the fresh fruits and vegetables have been increasing, and the varieties are much richer than before. If only fruits and vegetables are left in the space, the fruits and vegetables grown in the past six months will be enough for her to eat for more than ten or twenty years.

Then we counted some energy products, including 78 barrels of diesel and 89 barrels of gasoline.

During this period, I often drove a gasoline car to go out for trading, so wear and tear was inevitable.

However, she had received a piece of news from Sister Pan before. It was said that gasoline and diesel were also sold on the black market. It seemed that a force outside the base controlled the gasoline base stations that were left over from the end of the world and had not been destroyed. Not only were there abundant energy sources, but some of them were also sold inside the base. However, the prices were generally very expensive, and they could not be purchased with base points. They could only be exchanged for goods. If the items you brought out were rare enough or happened to be what the other party needed, then you could exchange them for the corresponding gasoline.

Many dignitaries in the inner circle of the base purchase gasoline through this channel. After all, they have a lot of good stuff in their hands. They can exchange one or two of them for half a barrel of gasoline, so they don't feel bad about driving their cars.

However, it is said that due to the extreme heat, the prices of gasoline and diesel have also risen sharply, and the amount of gasoline that can be exchanged has gradually decreased.

Nowadays, unless there is something they are interested in, general goods can no longer be exchanged for gasoline. After the acid rain period ends, it is necessary to find a way to use the materials in the space to exchange for as much energy as possible. After all, it is only the third and a half years of the apocalypse, and the duration of the apocalypse is still unknown. But when she died in the seventh year of the apocalypse in her previous life, energy was still the most important material that humans fought for.

While sorting, she glanced at the batch of pork harvested from the pig farm before. There were at least dozens of pigs that had not been slaughtered by her. In the past few years, she has tried to slaughter one third of the pigs in Kongcheng, but slaughtering pigs is different from slaughtering sheep. Killing pigs is obviously more complicated. Not only do you have to sort the parts, but you also have to clean the internal organs separately. She remembered that when she slaughtered a pig for the first time, she was still figuring it out by herself, from nine in the morning to five or six in the afternoon, before she cleaned up the first pig and prepared all the parts.

However, practice makes perfect. After the first experience, it took nearly two hours less to clean the second pig than the first.

Now, a head of pork can basically be completely processed in one afternoon. The current stay time in the space is three hours, and a piglet weighing more than 100 pounds can basically be processed in three hours.

None of the pigs in this batch of pigs in the pig farm are particularly fat. After all, they have been trapped in the pig farm since the flood period, and no one feeds them. In the end, they can only survive on the garbage and some weeds left over after the flood. Some of them even ate the corpses of their own kind after being slightly mutated. Therefore, their size generally remains between one hundred and two hundred kilograms, and the largest is only about two hundred kilograms.

It is unknown when this acid rain period will end, so Gu Tongwan plans to save the cooked food in the space as much as possible. Instead, he can use the various wheat or buckwheat flours in the space to make some simple pasta. Especially with Yan Fan as his helper, two people working together are always more efficient than one person.

After making up her mind, she took out twenty kilograms of flour from the space, which was just enough to mix with the coarse flour she had bought in the commercial street before. She planned to continue making dumplings and wontons tomorrow. Although Gu Tongwan was from the south, she loved eating dumplings and wontons very much. Although there were some packed dumplings in the space warehouse, it seemed that the dumplings she made were more fragrant, after all, she was willing to put meat in them.

After coming out of the space, I lay back on the bed, took out my phone and started to look through the latest news on the forum. As a result, I saw that a [Exchange Market] had appeared on the forum without knowing when.

The name [Exchange Market] sounds quite interesting, and it is divided into the living area, which means that both psychics and ordinary people should be able to find what they want here.

After clicking in, I found that it was divided into several detailed sections.

[Food area][Weapons area][Kitchenware area][Transportation area][Clothing area][Sundries area]

At first glance, it really does feel a bit like a "simple version of Taozi" in the end times.

However, the special thing about this market is that in addition to purchasing everything with base points, basically everything can also be exchanged for other things, and is not limited to trading with points.

For example, after clicking into the [Food Zone], you will see a lot of pictures on the page. These are all uploaded by users themselves. Gu Tongwan clicked into a picture of flour and saw a detailed description of the content and seller requirements in the blank space below. [Five catties of fine noodles, three hundred and fifty points, or exchanged for ten catties of mutant pork. Note: The fine noodles I am talking about are not the cheap ones at the base. The fine noodles I bought here were bought at the trading center before the extreme heat, and the flour tastes excellent. In addition, I don’t need other canned meat, I only need ten catties of mutant pork without any peculiar smell. If you have any questions, you can leave a message below or send me a private message. ]

There were similar comments below.

[Boss, can you make it cheaper? 250 points is ok. Your price is too high.]

[Boss, ten kilograms of pork is too much, how about eight kilograms? I can guarantee that the pork waiting for me is good quality. I bought it from the farm myself, and it is now frozen in my freezer.]

[Boss, I'll give you 300 points. Sell it to me.]

There are quite a lot of messages expressing interest, and most of them hope that the price can be lowered.

After Gu Tong went out later, he ran to the [Weapons Area] again.

[A 35-pound compound bow, which can be used normally, comes with six arrows. It needs to be exchanged for 20 kilograms of rice and 10 kilograms of mutant meat, which can be beef or pork mutant meat. If there are vegetables, 5 kilograms of mutant meat can be exchanged for vegetables or fruits of the same weight. This item is not considered to be purchased with points for the time being.]

The picture below is a dark blue compound bow, which looks to be about 70% new and should be well maintained. Based on the exchange rate of 20 kilograms of rice for 10 kilograms of mutant meat, this compound bow is currently worth at least several thousand points. It may be even more precious because the purchase of weapons in the base currently requires legal procedures, and these procedures can only be handled in the government office building. Only hunters from the Hunter Association or those with relevant certificates of superpowers can handle it. There are only two ways for ordinary people to get their hands on a good weapon. The first is to go to the black market and buy it at a high price. The second way is to trade privately in the base, but the second way has a high risk factor and there is a possibility of being defrauded or cheated.

However, the products in the [Weapons Area] are limited to cold weapons, such as machetes, bows and arrows, nine-section whips, throwing knives, daggers and other handy tools. Occasionally, you can also see stun batons, but they are more expensive. People who are able to buy them in the base must have a certain amount of financial resources. One stun baton costs three to four thousand points, and the price listed online has already reached twenty kilograms of fine noodles.

After walking around, Gu Tongwan found a rather special weapon, a weapon that was improved by a craftsman who claimed to be a craftsman himself. It turned out to be a [Double-shot Sleeve Arrow]. This type of sleeve arrow can shoot two arrows at a time. Each arrow is about thirteen centimeters long. The sleeve arrow is the size of a round roller, but it is actually very small and can be accommodated if the cuffs are slightly loose.

The price this person quoted was ten kilograms of rice, ten kilograms of coarse noodles, and two kilograms of dehydrated vegetables.

However, perhaps because this weapon is too unpopular, not many people clicked in. There were only two or three comments below trying to bargain. Someone even offered to exchange it for two kilograms of rice. As a result, the owner of the post directly replied, "Get lost. I'm not selling it at a low price."

It seems that this seller is quite temperamental, and there are several unpopular weapons listed on his page, such as an improved version of a telescopic mace, a machete with a rope that can be swung out, and some weapons that look quite weird.

Gu Tongwan was quite interested in the sleeve arrow, so he sent a private message to the boss asking if he could take some photos of the weapon from different angles.

The boss ignored her for about half an hour. Just when Gu Tongwan was about to log off, a new message popped up in the personal information center in the upper right corner of the forum.
