In a village full of old people and children, the smoke of cooking in a courtyard gradually rose.

When everyone saw the smoke from the kitchen from a distance, they knew that it was time to eat dinner, so the old people in twos and threes walked in the direction of the courtyard, or took the children who were not very big in their hands.

"Mr. Li, why don't you eat some gruel? You haven't picked up the miscellaneous grains over there yet!"

An aunt who was cooking said.

Unexpectedly, the old head Li just waved his hand and said: "Don't eat, don't eat, keep it for the little ones, I'm not hungry"

There are many elderly people who behave like the old head Li, and they just glanced at the place where the grains were collected, and then squatted by the courtyard wall with a bowl of gruel.

"Hey!"

The aunt who beat the rice wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

Everyone here knows that the food in the shelter is limited, and most of it is the food that Xing Tai'an's group of pre-apocalyptic soldiers bought with their lives. She looked at the skinny old people, and her heart was particularly uncomfortable.

"Grandma, let's eat together"

A little boy broke open a yellow hood and handed it to a gray-haired old man.

"My little pony, eat it. Grandma is old and can't eat anymore, so she likes to drink this gruel! Only when you are full can you grow up quickly and be as brave as those uncles."

As the old man spoke, he stroked the boy's hair with his hand.

The boy shook his head, broke the half of the wowotou into smaller pieces and put them into the old man's gruel.

"So grandma can eat and move"

The boy was satisfied and started to eat his half of the buns.

...

Su Jin and Lu Hao looked at the scene in the hospital, and finally understood how difficult the food problem here was that Xing Tai'an said.

"Too poor"

Lin Xiuyuan said with a bitter expression, fortunately, Lin Yunguo and Li Xiuying were not allowed to come out to see this scene, otherwise the two elders would definitely be sentimental for a while.

"There are more people than their poor people, but we don't know that," Su Jin said.

In her previous life, she has seen many people who were starved to death, and people who were unable to run because of hunger, and were finally eaten by zombies or mutant animals and plants. very lucky.

"It's just that it won't last long here," Lu Hao said.

The elderly can only spend the last period of their old age here. If those children are lucky enough to grow up, they will definitely leave here one after another.

“This is already good”

Su Jin said that she felt that this was the best ending.

A few people walked forward again, the village was too quiet, many old people were sitting quietly in front of the door, but there were always children running around laughing, so I added this here. A touch of anger.

On the road, there are still old people and children who stop to ask if they have seen someone named so-and-so outside.

They all listened patiently, but those people, they really hadn't heard of it.

Seeing that everyone walked away in disappointment, a few people were ready to go back. Before the end of the world, this place should have been just a small village. It only took ten minutes to walk from the beginning of the village to the end of the village.

Several people were walking to the place where they were about to reach their residence, when a gunshot appeared in the next courtyard.

"Hey! Another dead one"

A skinny old man who passed by Su Jin shook his head and said.

"Master, what's going on?" Ren Yingjie couldn't help asking.

"This team goes out to exchange crystal cores for food. Almost every time they come back, someone will be eaten outside, or they will be transformed into zombies here."

The uncle looked in the direction of Xing Tai'an's courtyard with cloudy eyes, and there were still tears in the corners of his eyes.

At this time, Xing Tai'an also came out with red eyes. He still had a pistol in his hand. He leaned weakly against the gate at the gate of the courtyard and saw a few people not far away.

"We have been reluctant to use the bullets in this gun. I left them to my brothers. It is a luxury to be killed by it in the end."

Xing Tai'an said with a wry smile.

Lu Hao went up and patted him on the shoulder, and said, "You guys have done something that most people can't do. It's really good."

...

At night, Su Jin and Lu Hao secretly found Xing Tai'an.

"Crystal nucleus?"

Xing Tai'an was a little surprised. Did these two people want to borrow crystal cores from him?

"Well, I'm a space system power user. If you have enough crystal cores, you can buy food from me. It should be more cost-effective than going to the base to exchange food," Su Jin said.

"Really?! You have food?"

Xing Tai'an stood up excitedly, looked at Su Jin and asked.

"Well, I have received some before, and it will inevitably break down after a long time. It is better to replace it with a crystal nucleus."

Lu Hao also explained.

Xing Tai'an firmly believed in Lu Hao's words. During the chat, he also learned that Lu Hao also came out of the army before, and he has an inexplicable sense of trust in the soldiers of his motherland.

"Okay, I have to change it, I have to buy it!"

After Xing Tai'an finished speaking, he was about to call someone in.

"There's another question, we don't want to talk about this matter"

Su Jin looked at him and said.

Xing Tai'an nodded and replied: "I understand, no one would want to let others know, you are willing to sell to me, you can already look down on me Xing Mou"

Xing Tai'an just called the space ability user in their team and asked him to take out all the crystal cores in the space.

"All? Captain, are you serious?"

Yan Gang, the space power user, asked in surprise.

"Well, you can spare it first, let me see how many there are"

Xing Tai'an couldn't wait to say that they usually don't take crystal nuclei seriously. Except for the mutated crystal nuclei that they will absorb themselves, a bunch of crystal nuclei can only be exchanged for a few kilograms of food in the base. .

"Oh well"

Yan Gang removed the benches in the middle of the room, and then took out a few transparent storage boxes. The storage boxes were not small, and each of them was filled with crystal cores!

"How come there are so many?" Xing Tai'an was shocked.

Su Jin and Lu Hao both stared at the side.

Unexpectedly, Xing Tai'an's team has so many crystal cores! But what surprised the two even more was that, as the team captain and even the leader of this shelter, they didn't even know how many crystal cores they had?

"It's so many. Didn't there come a small zombie tide outside before? We killed a lot of zombies with traps and abilities. Captain, have you lost your memory?"

Yan Gang's tone made Xing Tai'an feel a little ashamed, but he immediately changed the subject and asked Su Jin and the two: "So many crystal cores, how much food can I exchange for you?"

"..."

Su Jin wants to talk about the price. The problem is that there are so many crystal cores, and they don't know how many...

"This...maybe I need to count them," Lu Hao said.

"Tell me first, how many crystal cores can be exchanged for one grain? The ones we exchanged in the base before were 100 crystal cores per pound of wheat."

Xing Tai'an said that he was actually thinking in his heart that even if the price they said was a little more expensive than the price they exchanged, it should not be too expensive.

"100 nuclei, a pound of wheat? Or wheat flour?"

Su Jin asked with an expression of disbelief.

"Miss, here it is, this is the wheat"

As soon as Yan heard it, he took out a bag of unshelled wheat granules from his own space and placed it in front of the two of them.

"..."

What black heart base is this? So pit?

Su Jin looked at Lu Hao. According to the price of Xinyu shop in the base of S city, 20 crystal cores can be exchanged for a pound of rice or flour. So what price should she sell at the right time?

Also, is the price of Xinyu shop too cheap?
