Chapter 77 - The First Meeting
Chapter 77 The First Meeting
The first day back from the base was the most busiest. Splitting up the rewards had already taken such a long time, but Lin Xiaofeng had also sent over a lot of provisions and zombie crystals. All of the the other items didn’t even have to be mentioned.
Since Lin Xiaofeng and Cheng Jiao both had serious injuries they had no other choice but send over other people to deliver a message that they owed Shao Qing a favour. If there was anything they needed and they had the ability to do it, they would definitely not reject their request.
When they were dividing up the items, Gu Panpan was a bit not understanding: “Qing Jiejie, at that time why did you save him? Everytime I see their squad I feel pissed off!”
“Panpan, when you do anything you always have to look at the long term.” Shao qing patted Gu Panpan’s head: “If Team Gale had all died back there, when we return to the base, then our small squad would really stand out, popping up to the heavens one. After that then there would be zero superhuman squads who would be willing to join us. They would think how did a rank 1 superhuman squad come back with no injuries while an entire rank 3 squad was eliminated. What could the rank 1 squad have done to come back?”
“We have the ability!” Gu Panpan still didn’t understand.
“They don’t know that.” Shao Qing lightly smiled: “They would think that we stepped on Lin Xiaofeng’s team to get back here. Afterwards they would naturally put up a guard against us. Of course, the most important point is that Lin Xiaofeng is the captain of a rank 3 squad, so he definitely must be quite wealthy. Look, if he died how could we have gotten all these goods. Now that he is alive, look how much more we obtained!”
Gu Panpan’s eyes lit up and nodded: “I understand now Qing Jiejie.”
“Go put away those items, then come over to my place for dinner tonight.” Shao Qing patted Gu Panpan then prepared to go out and search for some fresh fruits and vegetables to exchange, to add to the meal for Gu Panpan and the rest.
After all since running around this entire time, everything they ate was not fresh, so she ought to reward everyone’s stomach tonight.
The price of fruits and vegetables grown in the base were rather expensive, but they were all fresh and the taste was not bad. Now that Shao Qing and the rest were all wealthy people, naturally they would not pay attention to spending some crystals.
But before going to buy fresh produce, Shao Qing was preparing to go look at the market first to find a good knife, something especially sharp for Shao Tong to keep for self protection.
This way when they go out again, Shao Qing could be a bit more relaxed.
Walking around the entire market once, Shao Qing wasn’t able to find a satisfying military knife. Settling for second best, she ended up buying a knife that wasn’t too shabby. It was dainty and delicate, but once she polished it when she got back it should be appropriate for Shao Tong to carry on her body.
When she was about to turn around and leave, a vendor’s stall that carried quite a bit of cosmetics caught her eye. Thinking that Gu Panpan was at an age where she would adore getting made up and Shao Tong might reach that age soon, she thought why not buy them some.
Nowadays, staying alive was quite difficult. Who would still care about putting on makeup? Therefore during the apocalypse, these things were worthless. The entire vendor added up was probably not even worth half a kilogram of food.
Considering that it’s not even expensive, Shao Qing walked over and squatted down. Another person then squatted right beside her and picked up a small wallet with some dark seeds inside and asked: “How much?”
The vendor owner looked at that person and stuck out two fingers. Nodding his head the other man took out two rank 1 crystals out.
Shao Qing couldn’t help but rub her head. Who is this young master? It seems like in the apocalypse there were still overprotected people, otherwise how could he get this foolish?
But she didn’t warn him of her thoughts or else she might ruin someone’s business causing a grudge to be formed. Furthermore she didn’t even know this person.
Meng Shen handed the crystals over. Picking up the seeds he was rather happy. The seeds inside were grain crops from the North, rarely seen in the south. Now that the climate of the apocalypse is so strange, he was planning to plant it and test it. Perhaps he might be able to grow it and if he is able to, won’t that allow his base to sell a great amount of seeds and the next year have a lot of food to eat.
“Do you still have more of these seeds?”
“Yes! Of course!: The owner was ecstatic. Hi household had a bunch of these seeds stored for many years. Before they had considered just eating it straight as food, but today unexpectedly he had found such a fool!
Now his entire brain was filled with the words: I’ve hit the jackpot!
“Can you take it out? Even if the numbers isn’t that great, I want it all.” Meng Shen flipped the seed over, grinding the outer layer. After taking off that husk, a soft white delicate colour was shown and the feel that if you pinched it, water might even come out.
After taking note of the soil and temperature, making it germinate shouldn’t be a problem. The only thing to be worried about is whether it would produce anything.
After wrapping a few more seeds, then he’ll be able to test it several times.
Shao Qing looked at Meng Shen. He looks pretty good and sounds pretty good, too bad he has something wrong with his brain.
“Wait until I finish buying the other things then I’ll come back to pick it up.” Shao Qing picked up two types of makeup and an eyebrow pencil, “How much?”
That owner probably got into the habit, but once again he stuck up two fingers. Shao Qing narrowed her eyes, does he think that she has no brains?
How dare he try to cheat her?!
Seeing that Shao Qing’s eyes were carrying a murderous aura, he shivered. Shao Qing wasn’t Meng Shen, isn’t that maybe use her emblem a superhuman badge. Was he looking for death?
But on the other hand, even if Shao Qing didn’t do anything to him, if she were to ruin the business with Meng Shen then that would make him cry and he couldn’t get revenge.
Thus he hurriedly said: “I mean I don’t want crystals. How could these things be worth any crystals? I just wanted something to eat!”
Thus Shao Qing gave him half a bag of biscuits. In fact half a bag was already too much, but if she were to haggle any further it would be too much of a hassle.
After taking the things, Shao Qing gave Meng Shen one last glance and couldn’t help but sigh. How could someone who grew up looking this good be so moronic? Sure enough if God opens a window for you, he would definitely close a door on you.
Being stared at like this, Meng Shen couldn’t make anything out of it. Finally, he didn’t put it to mind and just picked up the seeds from the stall owner. After that the owner put away his stall deciding not to work anymore that day and happily returned home with what Meng Shen gave him.
When Shao Qing returned home she gave the items to Gu Panpan and Shao Tong causing them to give her a kiss on the cheek. Er Dai who saw this became furious. Running over he pushed Shao Tong aside and pulled Gu Panpan back. Moving closer he gave Shao Qing’s left cheek a big kiss and gave her right cheek a kiss. After covering the traces of Shao Tong and Gu Panpan’s kiss, then did he become satisfied.
