Travel through the 90s with the system, dig your own grave first at the beginning

Chapter 377: It doesn't look like an auction at all, it looks more like I'm pulling it mys

"Do you really want it?" Gu Zishu turned around.

"I do. I'm definitely not just talking." The apocalypse has been going on for a long time. When they came here, peaches had just come on the market. The ones that were picked could not be kept for such a long time. The ones that were not picked were mutated along with the mutated peach trees. They had an incomplete summer in this apocalypse. There were no peaches and no watermelons. Now they finally came across some, and they must seize the opportunity.

It's the end of the world, so live every day happily. No one wants to save money anyway, because who knows when you will die and then the things you saved will become cheap to you.

"Okay, I think everyone is quite determined. Let's find an open place and not delay other people's business. Let's have an open auction. Don't say two kilograms of flour in exchange for a peach. This is looking down on anyone." Gu Zishu said with a smile, and at the same time mocked someone who had no confidence in his words.

"What auction? Do you really think you're so great just because you got a few peaches? Can you take the items away? It's the end of the world now, not a peaceful time." The man who was ridiculed by Gu Zishu said unhappily.

Giving him two kilograms of fine grains was out of kindness. If he went to a place where there was no one, this package of food would be snatched away.

"It's really amazing. Whoever wants it, just follow me. We won't have to go far. That location on the street is pretty good." Gu Zishu walked forward. There were patrols from the base on the street, so at least these people didn't dare to do anything tricky there.

"Come on, let's go and take a look." A group of people followed Gu Zishu and left. In an instant, the entire weapon store was half empty. Although they knew that these people would definitely come back later, the clerks were still very angry about such a scene. Today's performance was ruined again, and the money they earned was not enough to support their life.

When he reached the street, Gu Zishu immediately took out four peaches as big as bowls from his backpack. As for the remaining chocolate, it was not a rare item.

"Everyone, I only have four of them. I originally didn't want to exchange them, but there are many children in my family. If the price is right, I'm willing to exchange them." It was a good opportunity to exchange some food and add some more food to herself. In this way, the orphanage would have enough food to last for a while. As long as she solved the problem at hand, the rest would be easy to handle. She would have enough time to complete the mission in City S.

I hope these people are straightforward and stop procrastinating. Your time is precious.

"Four peaches, exchanged for grain. The highest bidder wins. There will be three auctions, one, two, and one. Let's start with the first one." After Gu Zishu finished speaking, there was a moment of silence among the audience. They had never participated in an auction before. This was the first time they attended such a makeshift auction. Not only was Gu Zishu a novice, but the people watching below were basically novices as well.

"Five pounds of sweet potatoes." The first warrior to bid came out, but what he took out were sweet potatoes.

Gu Zishu is not picky. As long as the quantity is large and it can be of some use when the time comes, it will be fine.

"Is there a higher price? You guys can see that this peach of mine is almost two kilograms. If you miss this village, you won't be able to find this store again. The peach shells outside are quite aggressive, but if you want to eat them, I suggest you don't try it easily, otherwise you will have to go to the toilet more often.

So everyone, please be enthusiastic. We don't know when we will get to eat peaches next time. Besides, the peaches have mutated. It will be difficult to change them back. There are seeds in this peach. Please think about it." Gu Zishu looked at the people below and said something to stir up trouble. Please be enthusiastic. It didn't feel like an auction at all. It felt like he was forcing these people to buy and sell.

"Six pounds of corn cobs."

……

It is hard to say whether a corn cob weighs 5 kilograms without the cob.

"Six pounds of corn cobs."

"Eight pounds of sweet potatoes."

"10 pounds of flour."

"Deal for 10 kilograms of flour." Gu Zishu said decisively.

She would be so angry if she received another 10 pounds of corn cobs. Then she would have to go back and peel the corn kernels. Is she looking for a job for herself?

"Hey, give me the flour and I'll give you the peach." Gu Zishu said, pointing at the burly man who took the picture.

The other party immediately brought over a bag of flour, a full 10 kilograms, which was packed before the end of the world.

After exchanging the good things, Gu Zishu looked at the remaining people, "Everyone, there are three left. I don't accept food with inedible things in it, such as corn cobs, which have inedible cores. I want corn kernels." Gu Zishu changed the rules.

"Boss, you can't afford to play around. Cows can eat corn cobs, so why can't humans?"

"I just can't afford it. I don't like eating corn cobs. If you like it, keep it for yourself." Gu Zishu said with a smile.

The people below burst into laughter, but they could understand that it was indeed a bit unkind to take advantage of something that was not food.

"Then let's start the second round. The base price is 10 kilograms of flour. We can't let the first buyer suffer a loss. Everyone, please make your bids. There are only three left. If you miss out, there will be no more."

"Eight pounds of sweet potatoes."

……

"15 pounds of flour."

"Is there anyone who wants to increase the price of 15 kilograms of flour?" Gu Zishu looked around and saw nothing. "It's still the same big brother from before."

This was a real rich man I met in the end times. He was different from me. I became rich by robbing the granaries of those six people.

"the last one."

"8 pounds of flour."

"make a deal!"

Gu Zishu exchanged four peaches for 33 kilograms of flour.

He walked out of the black market amid everyone's envious gazes.

Thinking about the time to register with the sharp-tongued registrar, it was already late, so Gu Zishu hurried towards the orphanage.

The road became more and more remote, and there were fewer and fewer people. Gu Zishu felt that there were a few more people behind him.

The spiritual sense could not reach the distance, but there was a mirror in Gu Zishu's backpack. With the help of the reflection of the mirror, he could immediately see the shadow of the person behind him.

Gu Zishu thought it was the people he had just confronted, but when he looked more closely, he saw that two of the figures were the ones who had taken pictures of his peaches.

The plan is to take the peaches back and also take the food back. How can such a good thing happen?

Gu Zishu quickened his pace and passed quickly through the winding residential buildings.

After a while, he got rid of the people behind him.

After walking for a distance, he successfully arrived at the gate of the orphanage. The bag of flour on his back had turned into a bag of 100 kilograms of flour, a bag of dried mushrooms, and a bag of 100 kilograms of rice. Although the weight was nothing to Gu Zishu, the size still made it a bit difficult for him to carry them.

As soon as we arrived at the orphanage, we unloaded the things directly onto the ground.

"You are quite punctual." Gu Zishu said to the registrar who was already at the door.

"If you want to find a good job, don't you have to be punctual?" The other party smiled. Anyway, before Gu Zishu came back, he had already wandered around the area. Although it was close to the wall and there were low-rise houses next to it, there was one good thing: next to it was where the government troops were stationed, so safety was guaranteed.
