Global Fog Survival: I have a built-in editor

Chapter 158, news

"so many people……"

Seeing so many people at once, Ai Qingqing first instinctively grasped the infantry sword hanging on her waist, and then relaxed instantly.

Because she saw many soldiers carrying quick-firing rifles patrolling the vicinity in groups of three or four.

"Are these...soldiers?"

Looking at the neat armor on those soldiers, Ai Qingqing was not sure whether these people were the chosen ones or what.

But at least the market doesn't look chaotic.

After calming down a little, Ai Qingqing walked towards the most crowded building in the camp.

"Don't squeeze!"

"Who is jumping in line! Believe it or not, I'll kill you!!"

"Fuck, if you squeeze out more labor and kill people!!"

Before they approached, the noisy market atmosphere in the crowd made Ai Qingqing feel warm in his heart.

After being alone for so long, suddenly approaching the crowd... It even made her feel as if she was in another world.

At this time, most of the people crowded here were yellow and emaciated, with ragged clothes.

...It is not an exaggeration to say that they are a group of refugees.

Most of them had bulging bodies and were carrying packages made of linen.

There are also a few people who simply come here carrying wood or fiber.

“Don’t crowd, take your time!!”

Near the entrance of the market, several soldiers tried to block the gate, shouting hoarsely.

Judging from their slightly hoarse voices, it was obvious that they had been shouting here for a while.

"Is this the place to exchange resources?"

Looking at the length of the team, Ai Qingqing gave up her plan to follow the crowd and squeeze in.

There are at least two to three hundred people gathered here at this time, and Ai Qingqing doesn't think she can squeeze all the way to the innermost place.

"And... I didn't bring any resources!"

After continuing to glance at the entrance of the market deep in the crowd, Ai Qingqing began to focus on other places in the camp.

Apart from this market, there is another relatively large building not far away.

But compared to this side, that side is not so lively.

The few guards at the door will drive away all those who approach.

On the wooden sentry tower standing tall next to it, soldiers holding rifles could be vaguely seen.

Obviously, those soldiers are monitoring the movement in this camp.

"This is the market? It's different from what I imagined..."

Full of doubts, Ai Qingqing walked towards the two-storey wooden house next to the central bonfire.

There are also many selected people coming in and out at this time.

And just by observing the appearance, Ai Qingqing had roughly guessed what the building was for.

……

"Fighting and fighting are prohibited in the hotel!"

"Violators will be punished!"

When passing by the door, several soldiers looked at Ai Qingqing with indifferent eyes, and then said such a paragraph as usual.

Obviously to warn her.

"..."

After lightly nodding to indicate that she had received it, Ai Qingqing pushed open the door and walked straight into the hotel.

As soon as he entered the door, a warm and noisy atmosphere came over his face.

The lobby of the hotel is not very big, and almost all of the more than 20 tables placed in it are full of people.

At the same time, a unique aroma of food constantly invaded Ai Qingqing's nasal cavity.

"Is this a place to stay and eat?"

Ai Qingqing's pupils shrank suddenly as she glanced at the selector who was eating and drinking on the nearby table without any trace.

The barley mixed with bacon did not seem surprising to her.

This kind of "Chosen Mixed Rice" is actually eaten by herself every day.

The only thing that moved her was the boiling hot soup that was constantly emitting heat.

“Tomato vegetable soup??”

Ai Qingqing's throat twitched as she watched some of the chosen ones suck the hot soup into their mouths regardless of the hot soup in the wooden bowl.

She admitted that she was a little hungry.

In the chat channel, there are indeed many people selling fresh fruits and vegetables.

But the price... is not something Ai Qingqing can afford.

Even though she still had a lot left over, she still squandered her rations just to satisfy her appetite.

"vegetable soup……"

Standing at the door and looking around, Ai Qingqing walked towards the bar not far away.

She is going to ask the price of the meal here.

Seeing Gentle approaching, the receptionist behind the bar smiled and greeted her proactively.

"Hello, Lord Chosen One!"

"I'm Timmy, you can talk to me if you have any needs in the hotel!"

The little girl who called herself Timmy looked young, wearing a half-worn dress, with a friendly smile on her face.

"Um... is there any vegetable soup here?"

As if infected by Timmy's smile, the corners of Ai Qingqing's mouth unconsciously twitched.

"Oh! You mean...hot and sour vegetable soup?"

Nodding slightly, Timmy continued:

"Vegetable soup is a bonus of the "Chosen One Plan"."

"Each Chosen set meal includes a plate of 'Chosen Mixed Rice' and a bowl of 'Hot and Sour Vegetable Soup'."

"The price is only one voucher, do you want one?"

"..."

"Voucher??"

Maybe seeing the confusion on Ai Qingqing's face, Timmy continued to smile and said:
"Well, it seems you haven't been to the market yet?"

"Vouchers are the common currency in the First Market. You can use them to spend here, or exchange them for food from the warehouse."

"As for obtaining vouchers... you can sell the [standard resources] you bring in the market."

"Currently the exchange ratio between [standard resources] and vouchers is 1:1..."

While Timmy was talking to Ai Qingqing, a chosen person in a tattered linen coat walked by.

He slapped the piece of paper in his hand on the bar, hiccupped and continued:
"Another set meal!!"

"..."

Ai Qingqing looked at the chosen one who was hiccupping and blinked.

But... you've made it this far, and you want another one? ?

"Okay, please wait a moment!"

As if he had gotten used to it, Timmy smiled sweetly, and carefully checked the pieces of paper on the bar counter.

Then he took out a small wooden sign from under the bar.

"Here is your menu, please pay attention to the call from the kitchen window later."

After the person who ordered the meal left, Timmy put away the "voucher" in his hand, and passed another wooden sign through the small window behind him.

When all this was done, Timmy turned around, continued to look at Ai Qingqing and said:

"Sorry, I was a little busy just now..."

"If you want to stay in the hotel on the other side of the market, you only need to pay three vouchers per day."

"Well...a breakfast is included."

"..."

Listening to Timmy's introduction, Ai Qingqing felt a little moved.

According to the one-to-one exchange ratio, the charges here are not expensive.

If she is more diligent, she can retrieve up to seven or eight standard units of resources every day.

The only troublesome thing... is that it needs to consume energy to synthesize.
