born august in the end times

Everyone had already decided to look for a house, and without wasting time, they came to the street the next day. Of course, it was Yu Chun, Jichen, two idlers and Chen Hui who came here, and they didn't look around like there were no flies.

As before, when looking for a house, an intermediary agency is always needed.They went directly to the XX store, which was the store where Ji Chen was molested, and it was also the largest trading place in the base.

Gasoline is expensive now, even Ji Gang and the others use walking to go back and forth, especially for Yu Chun’s transportation, they rely on two legs, the ground is packed with snow, the road is very slippery, it’s like taking a walk with the three of them , not in a hurry, came to the XX store, there are more than a dozen people are trading, it seems that no matter what time the monopoly business, there is no shortage of customers.

Different from their first time, the XX store has obviously expanded its storefront, the area has tripled and changed the layout.

When they came for the first time, although the products were complete, they were not displayed on the surface. They just made a booklet, looked at the pictures, and after confirming their interest, they asked people to pick up the goods in the warehouse, a bit like popular online shopping.

Now, it's a bit like a large trading market, and a bit like an employment center.

Because Ji Chen has been a hunter several times outside, he still knows a little about XX store. He explained to Yu Chun and Chen Hui, "XX store provides three services. First, he buys goods and then sells them to earn money in the middle Second, if the seller thinks the price is low and is unwilling to sell to XX store, the seller can also use XX store as a market and sell it by himself after paying a certain fee. Third, he accepts the commission, you can come Post a quest, put a bounty on something you need, and they'll look for hirers."

With a wide variety and high degree of freedom, it is no wonder that XX store has such a scale in a short period of time.

XX stores can fully satisfy their pure needs.

They stood in the center of the store, already attracting people's attention, they walked towards the counter, the owner of XX store was still Lao Yang, they naturally wanted to save trouble and effort, and find the owner.

Maybe it was the first time that the impact was too deep, they were recognized by Lao Yang as soon as they entered the door, although they didn't know their names, but obviously they recalled the scene of their first dealings, a man was molested by a little girl It wasn't something to save face, but now that I think about it, it's still kind of funny, but Lao Yang didn't make fun of Ji Chen right in front of him.

"If you don't have anything to go to the Three Treasures Hall, what do you need this time, I decide to give you a [-]% discount?" Lao Yang looked sore, wishing to change the [-]% discount into a [-]... discount.

There will be more opportunities to get along with each other in the future, so Yu Chun and the others will introduce each other.

"We want to buy a house, preferably a detached courtyard." Yu Chun directly pointed out his purpose.

Lao Yang almost didn't bleed out. Usually, when he encounters such a big business, he insists on laughing all day long. Buying a house, or a detached courtyard, what a big business, if he knew it was buying a house, he would Why are you talking about a discount? Although the discount is the lowest [-]% off, it also depends on what it is. A [-]% off for a cucumber is not as important as a [-]% off for buying a house. A [-]% discount, how many cucumbers he folded.

The man spit on a nail, and Lao Yang's heart was dripping with blood, so he could only admit it, "Tell me about your request?"

"It's better to have a detached house, it's safer."

"Don't be too far away from the command post, or it will be inconvenient to commute to get off work."

"As for the house, the equipment inside should be complete, and the base will soon be supplied with water and electricity. At least the water and electricity should be convenient."

"There are children at home, it is best not to be too noisy around the environment."

"Of course, our requirements are a bit too much." Looking at Lao Yang's face darkened, Ji Chen was a little embarrassed, after all, their requirements were a bit too much, "It's not necessary to meet all the conditions, that's the upper limit, we All you need is a single-family house."

Chen Hui on the side corrected: "There are two houses, and the two houses cannot be too far apart."

Yu Chun added: "We still have three houses with two bedrooms and one living room in our hands. It is best to accept barter."

The house that Yu Chun and the others live in, the house that the old lady and the others live in, Chen Hui's, add up to three sets, plus a little money, it's almost the same, saving them from having to sell the house they live in now.

Lao Yang has calmed down his mood and returned to the state of a businessman. He took out a pamphlet with the grades of house sellers on it, and looked it up, "You are lucky, the house that meets your requirements, I am It happened to be in stock this time."

"But the only drawback is that the command office in the house is a little far away, on the edge of the base." Lao Yang placed the pamphlet in front of them.

Yu Chun and the others took a look at the address. According to the specific situation and the surrounding environment, the house is located on the edge of the foundation. It is the same as a small farmyard. The small building on the second floor has a yard and a high wall around the yard. And there happened to be an independent bungalow next to the house.

Their luck was so good that it exploded.

"Is the seller of these two houses the same person?" Yu Chun asked, otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence to sell the houses together, and the houses are so close together.

Lao Yang nodded, "It's an old lady."

The conditions are really good, because there is a yard, and now there is Zishengyin, there is no need to wait for the spring to grow "vegetables" in an open space. He doesn't know why someone wants to sell it, and looking at the registered location, it has been sold for so long. sell away.

"Is the price offered by the other party very high?" Ji Chen said.

"That's not true." Lao Yang said, "The price offered is acceptable, but what she asked for was a bit unusual. In exchange, she wanted the buyer to pay for the food that two people would eat for four years, so that two people could stay in the base for four years. The required contribution value is also to give her a house to live in, that is to say, the price of her two houses is to allow two people to live on the foundation for four years without any worries."

"No wonder, such a good house has not been sold after being sold for so long." Yu Chun was dumbfounded, who knows if their house can last for four years?

"The request is really too much." Chen Hui said carefully, "Based on two people's three catties of grain a day, we have to pay more than 4000 catties of grain. Now the market price of a two-bedroom house is more than two thousand catties of grain. Contribution According to the value of two catties of grain a day, it also needs three thousand catties of grain, so a total of nine thousand catties of grain needs to be paid.”

The food here does not simply refer to food, but can also be exchanged for hard currency on the market, such as crystal nuclei.

Chen Hui has become accustomed to using grain to calculate whether it is worth money. The more he calculates later, the more he loses money. An adult man only eats 500 catties of grain a year, and nine thousand catties is enough for him to eat for 18 years. Set up a house without climbing stairs?No matter how big the house is, he only needs one bed. He firmly opposes buying a house at such a high price, besides, his family doesn't have so much "money".

——Chen Hui, who spends money like water, has finally learned to plan carefully.

This business is not going well, Lao Yang sighed, "Speaking of the seller of this house, he decided to sell the house because of no other choice. The old lady has a son. When the zombies broke out, the couple happened to be in Working in other places, the old lady still had hope at first, and stayed at home with her grandson, waiting for her son and daughter-in-law to come back. It has been three or four months. If she wants to come back, she will come back early. The reason why they decided to sell the house for four years was not because their grandson was greedy, because his grandson is still young, and he will have the strength to live after at least four years."

Otherwise, who would sell such a good house.

Lao Yang sighed and said, "The old lady insists on not lowering the price. Everything else is easy to talk about, but the contribution value is a bit troublesome."

Although grain can be exchanged for contribution value, no one would exchange [-] catties of grain for two houses. Those with so much grain have no shortage of houses.

Most of the house buyers in the base are base workers, civil or military, and freelancers. Only these people can afford the price, and the only advantage of this house is that it is a single family courtyard. There are many people who are interested in all of them. , the problem is that the old lady does not accept installment payments, where can I find so many contribution values ​​at once.

In order to get rid of this house, Lao Yang did a lot of selling. It used to be selling, but now it is a sincere suggestion, "Actually, I think this condition may be a bit harsh for others, but it should be the most suitable and cost-effective for you. Anyway, you If you are a space person, once you set out a mission, the contribution value will come back. If you can’t complete the task, it doesn’t matter what you say. The contribution value is completely useless to you. In fact, you can sell the excess contribution value. , we also provide this service.”

Lao Yang took the opportunity to open up business for himself, and then got back to business, "Look, you have three houses, two houses are sold, and four thousand catties of grain are exchanged, and one house is left for the old lady, and then the contribution value you don't use is taken out , the two of you can switch, and each takes what he needs, which is equivalent to exchanging your apartment for a villa without paying any price."

Lao Yang's eyes were shining brightly, don't think I don't know what you guys are up to, this easy-to-see problem, if you have to think about it for so long, and pretend that the price is too harsh, isn't it like lowering the price?Let me make it clear now, let's see how you belittle the house and ask for a price reduction?

"You can't say that." Yu Chun raised his finger, "The contribution value of four years is equivalent to three thousand catties of grain, and there is no market for it."

Yu Chun felt that the contribution value system developed by the base was really immoral. There were only three channels to obtain the contribution value, working for the base, going outside to kill zombies, and buying and selling. People bought and sold each other and bought from the base. Buy cannot sell.

The essence of the contribution value is that instead of the abandoned XX coins, it becomes the special circulation currency issued by the base, and the base even saves the effort of "creating", directly stamping, snapping, saving much trouble and effort than printing banknotes Then the contribution value is exchanged for the materials in people's hands, which is worthless.

Yu Chun has been worried that if inflation is caused, who will bear it, and will one day, the base save trouble and replace the army's salary with contribution value.

Of course, we can’t generalize. The existence of contribution value really brings order to the base. People’s work is not in vain, and there is no Shuoshu. The government also has funds. Besides, people can’t just give you a place to live and work in peace. .

The contribution value is actually the banknotes issued by the base and the protection fees collected.

However, the behavior of giving him contribution points every time a mission is really cheating, there are too many of these things, what's the use, just a few more stamps, of course, it would be very cheating to give food, he now needs Only crystal nuclei, but because of the huge number, last time the army said they were poor and issued an IOU for themselves, and then unilaterally replaced his crystal nuclei with rows of bright red stamps.

The crystal nucleus turns into a stamp, how embarrassing are you to call him.

Those pokes are nothing to him, not even chicken feathers, at least the chicken feathers are still chicken feathers, and the pokes are still crystal nuclei, his heart hurts so much.

Although the price has not been suppressed, Yu Chun is still very happy. He kept the buyer and sold the extra crystal cores he had on hand. He exchanged hard currency crystal cores and added a bunch of daily necessities. inflation.

Turning around, he encouraged Ji Gang to change the stamp quickly.

All three of them were interested in the house, so Lao Yang Maliu asked someone to take them to see the house.

There is no difference between the house and what Lao Yang described. The two houses are actually one, with a moon gate in between. They should already be one family, but if they are sealed off, they are two houses. Now Chen Hui and the others can drop by.

They are very satisfied, but based on the principle of negotiation and quantity, they can only make a decision after consulting their own men.
