Emo, I am traveling into the apocalypse with billions of supplies

Chapter 149 Buying New Year’s Goods and Trading Purchases

The two of them packed up, wrapped themselves in thick military coats, and went downstairs hand in hand. When passing by the public area on the 17th floor, I saw Lone Wolf and Lao Zhao sharing supplies equally. Frowning, "Where's the white wolf?"

Lone Wolf thought for a while and said, "I saw him running out with Xiaoyue in the afternoon, and I don't know why he went there."

Jiubei Prey nodded slightly. Although Bai Lang sometimes has a wild temper, he is not very skilled. In addition, the big guy Xiaoyue is not a fuel-efficient lamp either. He wasn't worried if the two of them went out together.

After all, everyone has their own life. The white wolf is free. He had no right to interfere.

After understanding the situation, Jiubei Prey took Xue Yueqing downstairs.

The two of them walked slowly on the snow path.

It hasn't snowed for so many days, and all the snow here has frozen into ice. Xue Yueqing reached out and touched it. "If this ice melts in the future, it will be a disaster. After all, there are many corpses and garbage frozen in this ice."

Jiubei Prey frowned and said, "If the pollution here is serious, we will go to the sea."

Xue Yueqing nodded. But I'm not in a hurry now. This extreme cold won't end for a few more months. At least she doesn't feel anything abnormal now.

The two walked to the main street of the city.

Walking on slippery ice is particularly difficult. The cold wind was biting. Xue Yueqing tightened her coat tightly. He frowned, "Why aren't there many people on the street?"

Jiubei Prey narrowed her eyes, "Life is so tight, who has extra supplies for consumption?"

They looked up at the street, which was full of people setting up stalls at a distance, but there were not many people buying and selling.

The two of them walked slowly along the side of the street carrying a night light.

There were some handmade insoles and other things on display at the stalls, which looked quite thick. It's quite practical.

Xue Yueqing stepped forward to take a look. The embroidery work on it was pretty good. "Mother-in-law, how do I replace this insole?"

Sitting in the stall was a gray-haired old lady, whose age was hard to tell. The old man's eyes are clear and he seems to be open-minded and transparent, but his whole person is a little thin after being tempered by the apocalypse. "You can give it to me if you like it, little girl."

"For one pound of grain, I can get four pairs?"

The old woman's wrinkled and weathered face was slightly moved, and then she looked around cautiously. Then he nodded, "Okay."

Before Xue Yueqing took it out, she found many small sealed bags in the space. Divide the grain into 500g bags. It is also more convenient to trade in this way.

She pulled her coat open a little, reached in and pulled out a bag of rice. He quietly hid it among the pile of things in the old lady's stall.

When the old man saw it, his eyes showed gratitude.

She didn't make any special moves, she just watched with a smile as Xue Yueqing secretly took four pairs of insoles and hid them in her coat sleeves.

The old man knew she meant well. I am grateful. He took a red triangular charm Chinese knot pendant from the stall and quietly stuffed it into her hand. "Little girl, you gave me too much, and the old woman took advantage. I know you are kind-hearted, so I gave this charm to you to keep you safe."

"Thank you. I like it very much." Xue Yueqing took it with a smile. There was a hint of strange color in the darkness of her beautiful eyes.

Give the devil blessings and all the troubles will disappear.

She was surprised to receive a piece of pure kindness and blessing in this world.

It is hundreds of times more difficult for a demon to receive blessings than for a cultivator to earn merit.

After all, demons are a race that everyone hates.

Therefore, those who are protected by the laws of heaven and blessed by demons will be able to avoid adversity and go smoothly throughout their lives.

Hmm... To put it simply, congratulations to this old lady for receiving a lifetime Koi card.

Of course, if one day the old woman has evil thoughts in her heart and goes with the devil. Then the good luck of avoiding disaster is gone.

Xue Yueqing stood up and played with the red triangle charm in her hand, with the word "peace" embroidered on it.

Jiubei Prey noticed that her mood seemed to have become particularly good since she got this talisman. I couldn't help but take a second look. I really can't see anything special about this talisman.

The two wandered around a few more stalls and found one selling cold-resistant sweet potatoes. She was surprised, "They were grown so quickly?"

It seems that they don't pay much attention to the vegetable garden at home.

Jiubei Prey doesn't know either. He is also a waste of farming and doesn't understand the growth cycle of this thing at all.

The two of them were curious, so they knelt down and took a look, and found that the skin of the sweet potato was purple and black. It doesn't look very appetizing. Xue Yueqing picked one up and smelled it, and found that it didn't have the same sweetness as the sweet potatoes at home. If it didn't look like a sweet potato, she would have doubted whether it was a sweet potato.

"How to sell this thing?"

The stall owner took a look at the clothes of the two people, and his thin figure finally sat up straighter. "One pound of sweet potatoes is exchanged for half a pound of rice or one pound of brown rice."

Xue Yueqing's eyes moved slightly, and she instantly remembered the batch of goods they had collected abroad. After hesitating for a moment, she asked, "What if I trade Chen Mai for you?"

The other party stared at her for a moment and replied in a hoarse voice, "One pound."

Xue Yueqing nodded, "Then give me 10 pounds."

She stood up and turned behind Jiubei Prey. Using his tall body as a shield, she seemed to lift a bag of things from his backpack.

Xue Yueqing took out 10 kilograms of wheat and placed it on the other party's stall.

The other party finally had a smile on her face and immediately picked out some drought-resistant sweet potatoes for her.

It is said that one weighs ten pounds and one tael. The other party handed them the sweet potatoes with a smile, "I'll give you the extra one or two."

Xue Yueqing:......

"Thank you." Jiubei Prey said, leaning over and picking up the sweet potato in his hands. Take Xue Yueqing and continue to turn around.

After passing several stalls selling summer clothes, shoes and bags, Xue Yueqing suddenly stopped at a stall selling clothes.

She looked at the children's hairpins with some curiosity. With bright eyes, he picked up a pair of rabbit hairpins and shook them at Jiubei Prey, "Brother, look, does this look good?"

Jiubei Prey lowered his eyes and glanced at the fluffy little rabbit hairpin in her hand, and then at her beautiful face. Although he felt it didn't match, his intuition told him that he couldn't follow his heart.

He pursed his thin lips and said, "As long as you like it."

Xue Yueqing's smile suddenly grew a little brighter. While picking on the ground, she asked, "Boss, how much does it cost to issue a card?"

"One tael of coarse grains and 2 pairs."

Xue Yueqing nodded and carefully selected at the stall. Then she saw the hair ties that tied her hair. They looked pretty good. She picked up a hair tie with cherry ornaments on it and said, "One price?"

"Yes." The middle-aged woman nodded, with some caution in her eyes. "How many pairs do you want? If there are more, I will give you a discount."

Xue Yueqing did not miss the look of expectation and distress in her eyes. Obviously these things must not have been cheap before.

She smiled and said, "I want 10 pairs of hairpins and 10 hair ties."

After saying that, she took out a 1-pound bag of rice from her bag.

When the other party saw the rice, he was shocked, "You gave me too much. I...I want whole grains."

Xue Yueqing was surprised for a moment, "What is the exchange ratio between a pound of polished rice and coarse grains?"

The other party was silent for a moment and said, "3 to one."

So...she just lost money by changing to sweet potatoes?

This thought flashed through Xue Yueqing's mind. She chuckled, "I wasn't wrong."

After saying that, he picked up the packed things and turned around to leave under the woman's astonished eyes.

Jiubei Prey took a step slower and saw the woman silently lowering her head and quietly wiping her tears.

He looked away and looked at the back of his little girl, looking proud. The little girl is kind, but not too kind, which is a good thing.

Jiubei Prey put the hairpins and hair ties she exchanged into her bag. As they continued to walk with her, they saw a calligraphy stall in the distance.

Surprise filled their eyes - they found it!
