"Wang Hao, you drive and let Leng Yi take a rest." Yang Qing said to Wang Hao.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry!" Wang Hao nodded and got into the driver's seat. "You guys get some sleep. I'll call you when it's daybreak."

Yang Qing and Leng Yi sat in the back seat together.

Yang Qing took out the small glass bottle that had just contained the blue liquid and shook it. "Those people must have been injected with this so-called 'holy blood' to mutate and gain superpowers."

"They said they were 'Holy Blood People'. It seems there are quite a few of them, and they may be organized."

Leng Yi nodded, "Be careful next time."

"Leng Yi, do you think I can also get this injection?" Wang Hao asked while driving.

"It's better not to." Yang Qing shook his head, "Didn't you see that person turned into a monster just now? I'd rather not have superpowers than turn into a monster."

Wang Hao nodded but said nothing.

"Wang Hao, don't be anxious. Since we are here, there will definitely be plenty of such things in the future. We will use the ones that suit you." Leng Yi said.

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Wang Hao nodded.

After driving for another two days, we could already see Licheng ahead.

There are a lot of people outside the city, and there are many small vendors.

Leng Yi checked the SUV and found a dashcam on it, so he removed it and took out all the accessories hanging on the car, car decorations, perfumes, and things in the glove box and center armrest box. Not a single trace of the past could be left behind.

The car was dirty during the past two days of driving, and there was some rust on the places where the paint had peeled off. It was very different from before, and if you were not very familiar with cars, you would not be able to tell.

Licheng had a city gate and two entrance and exit passages, which were guarded by special personnel.

People entering the city either have to look at the city’s property certificates or hand in supplies.

The three of them stopped in front of the city gate and observed for a while.

"Sir, do you want to buy something?" a small vendor nearby asked when he saw a car parked in front of him.

Yang Qing took a look and was a little surprised to see that it was a banana. Fruits were rare after the apocalypse, but they could still be seen on the stalls here, which meant that the disaster on this island was not really serious.

So I asked, "How much is it?"

"Five hundred per pound," said the vendor.

Wang Hao took a look and said, "It's so expensive. I saw it in Zengcheng for only 300 yuan per kilogram."

The vendor rolled his eyes. "We are in Licheng. How can Zengcheng compare? Forget it. I'll give it to you at a lower price, 400 per pound!"

Yang Qing picked up a string, weighed it, and found it was five pounds. He gave the vendor two thousand yuan.

When they burned the van, they also took back the more than 100 kilograms of food and potatoes that had been exchanged for the fat man. They also found a box of money and some jewelry, which they put away.

There is no shortage of money for the time being.

"Let me tell you what the conditions are for entering the city?" Yang Qing asked the vendor.

"Is this your first time here? You need a real estate certificate to enter the city." The vendor said, "I also want to live in the city, but I can't enter without a real estate certificate."

"Isn't there another way to get in?" Yang Qing asked.

The vendor took one look at their car and said, "You can't keep your car if you want to go in. It will be confiscated. They will also check the items in the car and only leave one-third for you. The rest will be taken away."

Yang Qing frowned. This was similar to what Wang Hao knew.

But if the car is confiscated, it will be difficult to get out the supplies in the future.

"If I give them all my belongings, will they arrange accommodation for me?" Yang Qing asked.

"Yes, but you have to rent one. The Urban Management Bureau will make unified arrangements. At least a dozen people should live in one apartment. Otherwise, you can rent a house. Some landlords in the city may have more than one apartment. Some people only live in one apartment and rent out the others."

“But the rent is very high. There are too many people moving into the city now, and the housing supply is simply insufficient to meet the demand,” said the vendor.

Yang Qing looked at Leng Yi and said, "How about we stay outside for one night and think of a solution?"

Leng Yi nodded, "Okay!"

There are small towns outside the city, as well as many shanty towns. It’s quite lively, but a bit messy.

The three of them found a small hotel to stay in first and ordered some food in the hotel.

"Boss, I want to ask you something." Yang Qing called the boss at the front desk, who also looked Chinese.

"You say!" the boss said politely.

"We want to move into Licheng. Is there any channel to buy a house in Licheng?" Yang Qing asked.

"Buy a house?" The boss was shocked. "It's hard to buy a house nowadays."

"Money is not a problem, it's just that we don't have the channels." Yang Qing smiled, "Boss, if you have the channels, we will give you a commission."

"Money doesn't work well now." The boss shook his head.

"What do you want? A car? Food? I have no problem with that." Yang Qing smiled.

Wang Hao looked at her in surprise and said nothing.

The boss glanced at the side and sat down next to Yang Qing. "To be honest, I do have a friend here who has a house and wants to sell it. But..."

"But what?" Yang Qing asked.

The boss lowered his voice and said, "He originally had a beautiful wife and a three-year-old son. One time, his wife was spotted by a big shot in the city and was kidnapped. He fought back desperately, and not only was he seriously injured, but his son was also beaten to death."

"He can't survive now, so there's no point in having a house. Besides, living in that room reminds me of the past, which is even more sad. Someone died in that room, so it's not auspicious."

Yang Qing was silent for a moment and nodded, "That's not a problem. We don't believe that. But, is there any condition for him to sell the house? He won't ask us to help him get revenge, right?"

"That's not the case. He just wanted to buy one..." The boss made a pistol gesture, "but he didn't have the channels. Although things are chaotic now, weapons are strictly controlled. Ordinary people like us can't buy any."

Yang Qing raised her eyebrows. She didn’t lack this, and she just happened to have picked up a gun of the Holy Blood that day, so she could give it to him.

"Just this?" Yang Qing asked.

"Of course, it would be better to have some food, but that is not important. The most important thing is that..." said the boss.

Yang Qing nodded, "Tell me what his room is like. I do have something he wants."

"His house isn't very good either. It's a small two-bedroom, fifty-odd-square-foot bungalow. The neighborhood is also quite old, and the house is just average."

Yang Qing nodded. It didn’t matter. As long as he had a place to stay, it was fine.

"If we want to enter the city, we just need to look at the property certificate, don't we need to check the person's head?" Yang Qing asked.

"Yes, as long as you have the property certificate, it doesn't matter whose name it is." The boss said, "The person with the property certificate does not have to hand in the supplies, but the people who are with you still have to hand it in. When you enter the city, they will issue you a pass, and you will not have to hand in supplies when you go in and out in the future."

"So if I buy a car in the city, or buy a car outside the city, or bring supplies in, I don't have to pay it?"

"Yes, just pay once, they won't be responsible for anything you buy in the future," said the boss.

Yang Qing raised his eyebrows. That’s good.

Fortunately, I didn't rush in just now, otherwise nothing would be left.
