The sun is already hanging in the sky, so it is probably too late, so it will definitely be too late to go back now.
Chu Guang would rather stay on Bet Street for one night than go to the night.
He had several unpleasant experiences and knew too well how dangerous it was. God would be able to survive.
Chu Guang wrapped the iron pipe rifle he bought into a plastic bag and tied it to the sharpened water pipe behind him. No one could tell from the appearance that it was a gun.
Although Bate Street does not restrict survivors from carrying weapons, Chu Guang did not want the mayor's eyeliner to discover the private transactions between him and the caravan outside.
50g blue umbrella mushrooms can only be exchanged for 1 chip.
It’s really a pity that these blood-sucking leeches can think of it!
Pass through the gates of Bet Street.
Chu Guang saw that the door of the recycling station was surrounded by a circle of people, including men and women, old and young.
They were ragged, pale and thin, with woven bags or frames on their backs, and plastic buckets or other containers in their hands.
Their daily routine is very simple.
Change the garbage you picked up for chips, and then use the chips to exchange for necessities in life.
Newly arrived soap!The production of Jushicheng Chemical Factory can wash away the disgusting smell on your body with just 3 chips.Buy one and go back and use it for your wife. There are only 30, first come, first served.
Cooked oil, no matter what it is refined, is fresh and good. It is transported from Brown Farm, and only 10 points of chips per liter... It is a bit expensive, but there are reasons for it to be expensive. You'd better find someone to fight.
Let me see, by the way, there is coarse salt!A piece of thumb is only 5 o'clock chips... No matter how it comes, do you still want to eat so much?Come and buy them all.
There are also tobacco leaves, whether they are smoked by yourself or used for bacon, and they are also Brown Farm... Forget it, you can choose it yourself, I'll take a break.
Old Charlie shouted lazily at the door, and his attitude was not like a businessman at all.
In fact, this is indeed not about doing business, but more like a kind of charity from the master to the servant.
Not to mention Bet Street.
Many things can only be bought here in this five-mile radius, and people living here do not have the right to choose.
Also, don’t think that the five miles are short.
Although Qingquan City is located in the southern plain, it has long been transformed into a reinforced concrete cemetery that is more dangerous than the forest...
Old Charlie wiped his sweat and handed over the money to the shop's shop's staff, and sat on the side, squinted his eyes to rest.
At this time, a thin young man in a gray coat, waving the wooden sign in his hand and walked to the crowd.
mobilization order!The mobilization order of the mayor!
Before the end of the month, each household will need to pay 100 kilograms of firewood and 2 square meters of fur.
Tell each other!
There was a commotion in the crowd.
There were complaints, but no one came out to resist.
After all, the same was true for previous years.
Bate Street does not charge taxes, but it does not mean that living here is free. In addition to soft exploitation of transaction rights, the mayor will always collect a batch of materials through one or another.
And a mobilization order is one of them, and it is available every August and September.
As for what happens if you refuse to collect?
The punishment is also quite straightforward.
All men and women over 16 in the settlement, regardless of whether they live alone or not, as long as they are not married, they are considered to be the only household. After marriage, they will be united with one household.
If the materials are not paid, the registered housekeeper will cut the name of the household from the list, confiscate his shack on Bet Street and expel him from the survivor's stronghold.
In this world where life is thinner than paper, losing shelter is no different from death.
Especially in the cold winter.
Although Bate Street is not wealthy, it is better than Brown Farm next door. At least the survivors living here can still have a little pity for freedom.
It seems that the mayor is planning to make another purchase before the last caravans of this year arrive and spend a fat New Year with the supplies they received.
Chu Guang thought to himself, but did not take this so-called mobilization order seriously.
He will leave this before winter.
Then there is no need to rush, he will leave by himself.
Bypassed the recycling bin.
Chu Guang walked straight to his shack, but before he could reach the door, he saw Yu Xiaoyu and a man standing at the door, arguing about something.
The man was about 1756, not tall, and was a boy.Chu Guang was not familiar with him, and only remembered that he seemed to be the third son of the Wang family, whose name was Wang Defu.
His shack is in the corner of the settlement, diagonally opposite the Yu family, and then the Wang family, so he usually doesn't visit him.
I don’t know what happened, but the third brother of the Wang family actually found him here.
Get out of the way.
Wang Defu looked impatient and stretched out his hand to push Yu Xiaoyu who was blocking the front. The little girl staggered back, but she still opened her arms like an eagle protecting the chicken, without giving in.
If you don't let it go, this is not your home!
It's not your home, either.
But he asked me to help me take care of the house!
What's so good about the dead home?
He was not dead.Yu Xiaoyu stared at him, his eyes like goldfish.
I'll lie less. The foreigner hasn't come back for four or five days.
Wang Defu continued impatiently, "Didn't your Yu family just want to get a share of the pie?" I don't plan to take it alone."In this way, the beam and this door of the shed belong to me, and you can take the rest.
If no one lives in a dead house, it is usually divided up by neighbors.
No accurate letter said that a person would die if he didn't come back for a few days, but usually no one would come back for several days. Everyone agreed that he was either caught by slave traders or plunderers or was taken to feed his cubs by alien species.
No one can survive for several nights outside.
Even experienced hunters are difficult to do.
Yu Xiaoyu's lower lip was blue, and his eyes stared at him like a little goldfish, and he didn't let go, but he didn't move any other things.
Wang Defu didn't want to wait anymore. After waiting, the men in the Yu family should come back. He couldn't get any benefits by himself, so he was ready to push her away.
However, at this moment, a hand was placed on his shoulder.
Who said I was dead?
Wang Defu's hair was shivering and jumped aside, looking at Chu Guang with fear like a beast.Yu Xiaoyu quickly slipped behind Chu Guang and hid, whispering to report.
He came yesterday and wanted to tear down your house.
Thanks.
Chu Guang looked at Wang Defu with a smile and continued.
Do you leave by yourself or will I give it to you?
Wang Defu knew that he was in the wrong, so he couldn't argue. Then he glanced at the steel pipe with blood-stained on Chu Guang's back and finally left silently.
He was not afraid of the Yu family, nor was he afraid of this foreigner, but no one was willing to offend a strong man.
Especially this guy is alone and has no weaknesses at all.
Looking at the man's back, Chu Guang suddenly felt a little sad.
Although some people are alive, they are no longer different from the hyenas and vultures outside.
He had seen a mutant hyena with his own eyes bit off the neck of his injured companion and share its meat.At that time, he didn't think much about it, just thought it was the law of nature, and now he actually empathized with it.
After just leaving for a few days, these people were ready to move.
Yu Xiaoyu, who was hiding behind Chu Guang, did not leave. She felt that if she waited a little longer, she might be able to eat the candy she ate that day.
She had never eaten anything so sweet before, and almost chewed the plastic sticks together.
Notice the big eyes looking at me.
Chu Guang was stunned at first, then came to his senses. He smiled and took out a lollipop from his pocket that he had forgotten to eat and stuffed it into the girl's hand.
I've been bothering you these days.
No trouble!
Xiaoyu happily tore open the plastic paper, stuffed the lollipop into his mouth, and said vaguely, "I have nothing else to do anyway, I can help you watch when you go out."
At this time, the men from the Yu family came back from the recycling station with the spoils.From the bulging package, we can see that they have gained a lot.
Seeing his eldest brother, second brother and father, Xiaoyu hid back into the house.
Earning candy is just a side job. Focusing on the people in the countryside is the job assigned by the elders. Xiaoyu has not forgotten the elders’ advice to him.
However, no matter how fast she moves, it cannot be faster than the hunter's eyes.
The old man, who was strong and wrinkled on his face, looked at Chu Guang, said nothing, and entered the house with his eldest son carrying two bags of green mai.
Yu Hu, the second son of the Yu family, stopped in front of Chu Guang.
Chu Guang recognized him.
The people here don’t pay much attention to him, and this young man of eighteen or nineteen years old is one of the few who will take the initiative to talk to him.
However, this man always speaks straightforwardly, just like his name.
You're not here these days, and I thought you were dead.
Chu Guang said.
It seems that your intuition is not very accurate.
Yu Hu was stunned for a moment and grinned and touched his head.
This foreigner is quite interesting. His way of speaking is different from others. He always likes to turn a corner.
He didn't care, he continued.
I have to tell you that the mayor just issued a mobilization order, and each household must hand over 100 kilograms of firewood and 2 squares of fur before the end of the month.
There are three adult men in the Yu family who need to pay 300 kilograms of firewood and 6 square meters of fur. They are considered a major taxpayer on Bet Street.
The former is okay. The city is full of vegetation, and you can see large areas of forest land when you go north. Even without the mobilization order of the mayor, they will have to cut some back to prepare for the winter.
But the latter is not that easy to deal with. At least four or even five mutant hyenas with a 6 square meter fur must be killed.
I heard it when I came back.
That's good.
Yu Hu didn't beat around the bush and said straight.
We were discussing with the Li family just now and planned to try our luck in the woodlands in the north. It is said that there are signs of deer migration there.If you can catch two, not only skins, but also flesh, will you get together?
It's still not possible, I'll think of a solution myself.
Chu Guang politely refused, but he remembered it silently in his heart.
The scavengers on Bet Street plan to hunt in the north, and Linghu Wetland Park is also a little west to the north. I hope I won’t encounter it then.
Yu Hu naturally didn't know what Chu Guang was thinking, so he just thought he was embarrassed and continued to persuade him.
I can see that you are a capable person, but no matter how capable a person is, he is limited. The boy from the Wang family dares to bully you because of the large number of people and power.
Let's do this, my sister will reach the age of getting married next year. It's better to marry her, so we will be a family.
If you are in a hurry, holding a wedding tonight will not be in trouble.
Chu Guang almost choked by this sentence and coughed.
No need.
What's the thing?
How did the topic jump to this?
Moreover, the age of marriage acceptable to these survivors is unacceptable to Chu Guang from a civilized society.
He is still young, so it's still early to get married or something.
Alas, that's OK.
Yu Hu didn't persuade him anymore, but expressed regret in his heart.
The people who came out of the shelter had a good head, just like the old man named Charlie. He has been helping the mayor for work since he can remember, and he is a big shot in the eyes of the neighbors.
Old Man Charlie said that Chu Guang also came out of the shelter, so there should be no mistake. I think his mind must be very good.
If he could have a son with his sister, the Yu family might have a big man like Old Man Charlie in the future.
He even made plans to convince his father.
But now it seems that I am self-indulgent.
Carrying things back home.
Yu Hu grabbed his sister.
Xiaoyu, brother asked you, would you marry you to Brother Chu Guang next door?
Xiaoyu still had a lollipop stuffed in his mouth, gurgled.
all right.
Anyway, it's right at the door of your house, not far away.
In her eyes, the so-called marriage is just a different place to sleep, and there is nothing wrong with it. Maybe she can get two more pieces of candy.
Yu Hu, who had originally planned to give up, said happily.
Then I will help you persuade him.
At。
Xiaoyu responded casually, only caring about eating candy, not caring.
But Yu Hu was in the mood to make a lot of fun.
OK, I will talk to my elder brother and dad, but don’t just wait there. If you have time, go find your mother to learn how to make pancakes... What are you eating, give me some taste.
Not given!
Seeing that the second brother was about to steal his candy, Xiaoyu was unhappy in an instant, so he dodged away with his body and ran away without a trace.
Chu Guang would rather stay on Bet Street for one night than go to the night.
He had several unpleasant experiences and knew too well how dangerous it was. God would be able to survive.
Chu Guang wrapped the iron pipe rifle he bought into a plastic bag and tied it to the sharpened water pipe behind him. No one could tell from the appearance that it was a gun.
