Happy life of a woman in the space apocalypse

Chapter 10 The gold in her space is enough for her to lie flat for a lifetime

Jian Wu glanced coldly at Shang Wenzhu lying on the ground. She was really looking for trouble and was stupid. She didn't even think about her own situation at home.

"Jian Wu, where have you been?"

"Look outside. Your village is very big."

Shang Weidong had just discovered that Jian Wu was missing and was about to go out to look for her.

"Yes, our village has a lot of land and we have to reclaim wasteland every year."

"Then you should have plenty of food."

Shang Weidong sighed. It seemed that Jian Wu was not really one of them.

"The country suffered from famine for several years and the crops were completely destroyed, so even though we are paying our taxes now, there is not much left, and most people still can't get enough to eat."

The 1963 incident in Fenghua country also had similar features.

"time to eat."

"Let's go, wash your hands and eat quickly, we are short on time."

Zhao Hehua smiled as she watched her old son following Jian Wu closely. She felt that her old son could "get married" this time.

"Jian Wu, did you sleep well last night?"

"I slept very well, and it was quite cool at night."

Zhao Hehua filled a bowl of rice porridge for Jian Wu, which made Wang Meili, who was standing next to her, curl her lips.

"Aunt, this is too much."

"What's the big deal? It's all watery and gone in two steps."

Jian Wu was really having a headache. The bowls in her house seemed to be bigger than her face. She was so full last night that she really didn't have the energy to finish it this morning.

"You eat first. If you can't finish it, I'll eat it."

This guy is addicted to eating his own leftovers?

Sure enough, after breakfast was over, Jian Wu sat in the chair and relaxed for a long time. However, Shang Weidong was feeling proud in his heart. He really hoped that he would take care of Jian Wu's leftovers in the future.

"Lotus, Lotus, go and see your daughter who has fainted behind the big willow tree."

The neighbor's shout made Zhao Hehua stop what she was doing, but only for a moment.

Shang Weidong originally wanted to go and take a look but was stopped by Zhao Hehua.

"Don't go. Take Jian Wu to the county town to take care of the business. I'll let your elder brother go and take a look."

Jian Wu was not afraid at all that Shang Wenzhu would complain after waking up. Even without evidence, someone had to believe it.

When passing by the big willow tree, Shang Weidong went over to take a look. With his experience, he discovered that his younger sister was in a deep coma.

"Brother, take her to Master Wei first to see if she was bitten by something."

"Oh, okay, I'll carry it right away."

I was bitten, and it was indeed caused by electricity.

You can take the village's ox cart or mule cart from the village to the county town, but now is the busy farming season and everyone in the village who can go to the fields, whether it is people or animals, has to go to work.

Shang Weidong was still surprised to see that Jian Wu almost did not lag behind in the next step. He had thought that Jian Wu was very strong in fighting ability, but now it seems that she also had great endurance.

"When I come back, I can borrow a bicycle from the county town so I don't have to go through all the trouble."

Jian Wu had picked up her physical training three months before she traveled back to the apocalypse. Now she is almost in her strongest condition during the apocalypse. Walking for more than an hour is really nothing for her.

"Can I get my household registration done today?"

"should be okay."

Jian Wu wanted to find a house to live in today. She didn't want to go back to Shang Weidong's house with him again because it was too noisy.

Shang Weidong glanced at Jian Wu secretly. In fact, he could have processed the household registration process more slowly, but he really didn't want to deceive her.

It only took them an hour to reach the county town. Jian Wu looked at the street that stretched to the end of the street. The tallest buildings on both sides were only two stories high and could be said to be quite shabby.

Almost every pedestrian on the street had patches on their bodies, and some looked thin and sallow, apparently because they really were not full.

When the two arrived at the gate of the Public Security Bureau, Shang Weidong met an acquaintance.

"Wait for me outside for a moment."

"it is good."

Jian Wu watched Shang Weidong being hugged by a man shorter than him and taken to the Public Security Bureau. It seemed that he still had connections. She hoped that everything would go well.

"Have you heard? The county is now advocating for people to hand in their gold. They say that you can take the gold to the bank and exchange it for money."

Jian Wu immediately perked up, as she really needed money in this era.

"Who has gold in a family like ours? We used to be so happy to be able to buy a pair of silver earrings."

"That's right. I still have to go to the city bank to change it. After deducting the travel expenses, how much money will I have left?"

The city? It seems that she will have to go to the city again. Maybe she can settle down in the city.

Not long after, Shang Weidong rushed out and was relieved to see Jian Wu was still there.

"It's time to wait."

"No."

"I just asked, if you want to settle down in the county, you either need to register under someone else's household registration, or you need to have your own house, which is considered as the household head registration."

“Is there anyone selling houses in the county?”

"Yes, but not much."

Jian Wu frowned. It seemed that it would not be so easy to finish it in one day as she had thought.

“What’s the approximate price range?”

"A three-room apartment with a yard can be purchased for about 500 yuan, but apartments are usually allocated by work units and are difficult to buy."

“How long does it take to get downtown from here?”

Shang Weidong frowned. What did she want to do?

"It takes two hours to get to the city from here by car, but we can't go without a letter of introduction. Can I ask what we are going to do in the city?"

Jian Wu cursed in her heart, why was it so difficult to do something?

"I just heard that I can take gold to the bank in the city to exchange for money. I still have gold on me and I want to exchange it for money to buy a house."

Shang Weidong breathed a sigh of relief and a smile appeared on his face.

"This is easy to do. You can sell gold even if you don't go to the city."

Jian Wu looked at Shang Weidong, wanting to hear more details.

"Just go to the black market. The prices they charge are basically the same as in the bank."

"Great, take me to the black market right away."

The wandering people wanted so much to settle down that at the end of the world, what she wanted most every day was to return to the small house of only ten square meters in the base. Although it was small, it gave her a sense of security.

So now Jian Wu is very anxious and doesn't want to waste even a minute.

"The black market is very chaotic, and you have to cover your face."

Shang Weidong originally didn't want to take Jian Wu to those dangerous places, but when he thought of her strength and character, he knew that even if he stopped her, she would ask other people about the location of the black market.

"No problem. Do you have straw hats for sale in the store?"

"There are no stores in the county, only supply and marketing cooperatives. Please wait for me."

Shang Weidong went to the Public Security Bureau again, and Jian Wu found five small unmarked gold bars from the space. Each bar weighed 100 grams, which should be enough.

When Shang Weidong saw the gold bars that Jian Wu handed him, he sighed. Wasn’t the girl too rich? What chance did he have?

"How much can these be exchanged for? Is it enough to buy a house?"

Shang Weidong weighed it in his hand and nodded affirmatively.

"Gold is about four dollars and a half per gram now, so you can't exchange these for more than two thousand dollars."

Jian Wu smiled. She must be very rich. The gold reserves in the space were enough for her to lie down for the rest of her life.
