Doomsday game, my supplies increased tenfold

This place is like an ant cave, intricate and interconnected. People who come here for the first time can't find anywhere at all. This is even more so for people with a poor sense of direction. It is almost impossible to live here.

The hall retains its original style, with a round table and many chairs placed in the somewhat rough area, and even a blackboard hanging in the front.

"This is our meeting place and hospitality place. Although this shelter is large, it is said that it needs to be upgraded. As of now, we are still at level one. Many places even need to be repaired. Many underground floors have not been opened yet. At this stage, only the first and second underground floors are available. The rest will be opened after upgrading. Therefore, the space is quite tight."

Will areas be gradually opened as the shelter level increases? This sounds similar to the official shelter.

At this stage, most organizations and gangs still occupy some buildings for development. Only the official shelter and this place have the ability to upgrade and expand. This is undoubtedly a good start. I didn't expect that the Alliance, which I thought was the most difficult to develop, actually developed quite well.

The leader brought some food to Xiao Qi, and then explained various aspects of the shelter.

Xiao Qi loved to listen, and the leader loved to talk, so the two of them chatted till day and night fell, until the leader had said almost everything that needed to be said, and now it was time for the field investigation.

The leader took Xiao Qi and began to watch and talk as they moved back and forth in the shelter.

Xiao Qi saw all the areas here. Many people in the residential area were taking leisurely walks, and some old people were sitting together in groups of three or five playing cards. Although the temperature underground was high, it did not exceed zero degrees. These old men were wearing thick military coats and gathered together, which was very lively.

Compared with the relaxed atmosphere in the official shelters, this is probably the only one.

Soon, they gave all the areas a rough look and came to where the two old people were temporarily living.

This was the leader's plan, and Xiao Qi also took the initiative to propose it, to take a look at the situation of these two elderly people.

When they were brought here, they looked very bad. The leader and Xiao Qi were very worried and hoped to hear some good news.

The door was pushed open, and the room with the fire burning became a little warmer, about 20 degrees. The room was very small, with nothing else except the beds where the two old people lay and a small table. The stove could quickly heat up the room.

At this moment, a man who looks like a caregiver is taking care of the two elderly people.

"This is Xiao Chen from our shelter. He used to work as a caregiver and now he loves this job very much."

When Xiao Chen saw the two of them, he smiled at them and put down the cup in his hand.

"The two old people are in good condition. The doctor just checked on them. It's mainly because of malnutrition and the cold weather. They should rest well and burn more charcoal during this period. They should be able to return to normal in no time. But as for food..."

Xiao Chen was hesitant to speak, and this look scared the leader. Her face turned bad instantly, and she winked at Xiao Chen frantically. After getting the hint, Xiao Chen was stunned for a moment and immediately shut up. However, Xiao Qi happened to see what happened just now.

“Are you short on resources?”

The Alliance, which was already struggling to make ends meet, carried out various repairs and upgrades after the shelter was moved. The resources were probably already insufficient. Moreover, they had always helped the elderly and children whenever they could, never abandoned them, and never despised them. The supplies were shared equally by everyone, but only the young people contributed, so the supplies naturally became increasingly scarce.

Such words would make Xiao Qi feel that they were deliberately begging, and the original banquet would be completely changed.

The leader naturally didn't want Xiao Qi to think that they were that kind of people, and he didn't want to accept charity, so he stopped Xiao Chen from speaking.

"In the current situation, who doesn't have a shortage of supplies? In my opinion, the supplies in the official shelters are probably not enough to squander. Our supplies can still maintain everyone's normal expenses, so there is no problem for the time being."

"I have a lot of vegetables and fruits here. I can exchange them with you or buy them at a lower price."

The fruit trees that kept growing and harvesting in Xiao Qi's backpack caused the amount of fruit she had to increase dramatically. Selling them one by one was a waste of time and she couldn't get a very high price. At this point in the game, food was no longer the most scarce resource.

If I could package and sell them directly to the Tongmenghui, it would not only be a token of my appreciation, but I could also sell them in large quantities, saving a lot of time.

The leader of the alliance naturally did not think that Xiao Qi thought this way. She just thought that Xiao Qi wanted to give alms to help them, so she was particularly resistant.

"You must not have much supplies. If you keep them for yourself or sell them, you will make a lot of money. There is no need to help us. We go out to explore and search for supplies every day. Just look at the residential building that appeared nearby. Many people from our alliance have gone there. We can bring back a lot of things. Don't underestimate us."

Was it the expected rejection?... Xiao Qi sighed helplessly.

"This is not a lie I made up to help you. Moreover, I will not give you the supplies for free. You also have to pay for special props and teleportation essences. It's just that if I accept them in bulk, the price will be cheaper, which also saves me time. You should know about wholesale. Without the time cost, the price will naturally be much lower. Don't you want to seize this opportunity?"

After hearing what Xiao Qi said, the leader still felt a little uncomfortable, but he still agreed.

The two of them made an agreement that Xiao Qi would provide them with 500 units of fruits and vegetables every week, temporarily until the end of this disaster. If they had more ways to obtain supplies in the next disaster, they would not need them. As for supplies, there were some types to choose from, and Xiao Qi didn't have much on him, so he could only exchange for other things, at a price of three teleportation essences per unit.

At present, the price of ordinary food in the trading market is five Teleportation Essences per unit, but there is a subtle upward trend. Now everyone is relatively rich. I heard that after clearing the dungeon, most people can get Teleportation Essence rewards. Although I don’t know why I don’t have it, in general, everyone has some savings, so the price has risen accordingly.

I remember that in the past, a few Teleportation Essence fragments could buy food, but now Teleportation Essence is required.

Xiao Qi originally wanted them to use special items to pay off their debts, because the leader mentioned that they didn't have a lot of teleportation essences, but unfortunately, after Xiao Qi looked around at their other supplies, he found that there was nothing he liked, so he gave up.
