Chapter 53 Purchasing, A Cookie

This is the second time he has come to the place selling water.

Because the sky was just getting bright, many vehicles drove out from the Longxi camp at this time, and put bottles of different types of water bottles on fixed booths.

These waters are packed in one catty, two catties, and five catties.

Further up, there are kettles. There are [-]-jin, [-]-jin, [-]-jin and [-]-jin kettles.

The quantity is large, but the water is very turbid, so it is not necessary to think about hygiene.

And the price tag is a bit too much.

Jiang Cheng took a closer look, and found that the price of a one-jin package was [-] Longxi coins, and that of a ten-jin package cost [-] Longxi coins.

As for the [-]-jin package, it costs [-] Longxi coins.

Today's water is like gold, one thousand Longxi coins per catty.

On the contrary, it is ordinary grain, which only costs ten Longxi coins per catty, and meat costs one hundred Longxi coins per catty.

And water is the most indispensable, and food can also be obtained by hunting evolutionary creatures, but water, in the entire grassland area, it is estimated that only here still has water.

Jiang Cheng thought about it, and still spent 20 Longxi coins to buy two hundred catties.

But two hundred catties of water is still not enough.

So after a little disguise, he wandered around again, exchanging all kinds of coins in Master Heifeng's space folding bag into Longxi coins.

Fortunately, there are many business groups here, and money from other camps can also be exchanged here.

Although the price was lowered by various means, in the end, more than [-] Longxi coins were exchanged, and another [-] catties of water were bought.

After that, Jiang Cheng used the remaining money to buy a whole set of pots, pans and other items.

Rice is an essential staple food, and he also bought it.

In this day and age, this kind of food is far less expensive than meat. On the contrary, it may be because it needs water to cook, so it seems much cheaper.

Of course, it is only relatively cheap, but it is also much more expensive than in the peaceful years. Rice that looks very rough costs ten Longxi coins a catty.

He also bought some oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar, and others can be less, but salt is essential.

Thinking that he might often dig holes in the future, he spent another [-] Longxi coins to buy a lithium battery lighting tool, the kind to wear on his head.

This kind of lighting tool can theoretically be used for a month even if it is used continuously, and it can be used intermittently for a year.

Although there is a fault in civilization in this world, lithium battery technology has been preserved. For many camps, lithium battery is the most common battery.

As for equipment of the power armor and land boating level, cold fusion is directly used. It can be seen that the world's technological level has definitely developed to an extremely high level a long time ago.

I don't know what the disaster that happened at the beginning was, so that the world with such high technology cannot fight against it!
Suddenly, Jiang Cheng saw a jelly at a stall, and his heart skipped a beat, and he asked, "Shopkeeper, is this jelly? How do you sell it?"

"One Wulongxi coin." The shopkeeper smiled enthusiastically.

"So expensive?" Jiang Cheng was taken aback. This kind of jelly was only the size of a walnut, but it turned out to be almost as expensive as rice.

"What do you think?" The shopkeeper's expression suddenly turned cold. He dared to ask about luxury goods and thought he was rich. He said lightly: "Jelly contains a lot of water, and it is a luxury item. Time may go up."

Jiang Cheng was right when he thought about it. He thought of Yaya and Tong Xiaorou, so he bought a hundred of them.

In addition, he also bought some snacks that can satisfy his hunger and taste good.

There are also pastries, etc., but he doesn't buy much of this kind of food that consumes water, the main thing is to taste the taste.

Of course, he himself doesn't like snacks, but Yaya and Tong Xiaorou will definitely like them.

At this time, Jiang Cheng has discovered a bug, that is, put all kinds of sundries into a space folding bag, and then that space folding bag can also be put into his own space backpack.

However, each space folding bag will occupy a separate grid, regardless of whether there is something inside the space folding bag, it must occupy a separate grid.

In this way, he simply put all the miscellaneous items into the space folding bag of Master Heifeng. In this way, the things he bought later, not only did not occupy the grid of the space backpack, but vacated a lot of the grid.

The space folding bag of Master Heifeng only has three cubic meters of space, which is not big enough.

It's a pity that the space folding bag containing the materials of the Black Wind Merchant Group cannot be opened, and there should be a lot of good things in it.

"The three hundred catties of water I bought this time are very turbid. If it is processed, it may be consumed..."

Jiang Cheng thought about it, and felt that it was still necessary to get more water. Such a small amount of water was still not enough, and it would be used up sooner or later.

But there wasn't much left to sell.

As for the barbecue...

He doesn't really want to expose the barbecue here. Other will modification items (synthetic items) can be tried, but they can't expose too high value.

"Let's find a way to find out where the water in Longxi Lake is!"

Jiang Cheng was thinking about this in his heart, and was about to go back, when suddenly Liang Weilun walked up to him.

After seeing him, Liang Weilun said happily: "Brother Jiang also came to buy water? Did you buy it?"

Although Jiang Cheng made a little disguise, strangers couldn't recognize him, but acquaintances could easily recognize him.

"I bought some, but..." Jiang Cheng thought for a while, and suddenly said in a low voice, "The water here is too expensive. Even if we go bankrupt, we won't be able to buy much. Brother Liang has a way..."

Hearing this, Liang Weilun said helplessly: "Brother Jiang doesn't know something. I inquired last night that the water level of Longxi Lake is already below 500 meters, and the people in the Longxi camp are watching very closely. There is no chance, otherwise those wilderness people would not stay here."

"500 meters?!" Jiang Cheng said in surprise, "Is this Longxi Lake that deep?"

Liang Weilun: "I also asked about this. It is said that there was a giant dragon living in Longxi Lake back then. The depth of the lake was more than 3000 meters. Of course, it may not be that deep, but it must be more than 1000 meters. Crazy water collection and preservation, worrying that the open air will evaporate dry, so the water level of Longxi Lake drops rapidly.”

As he said that, he glanced around and made sure that there was no one around, and then said: "Instead of going to Longxi Lake to fetch water, it is better to directly attack the Longxi camp, but unfortunately this method is also not feasible, and the population of the Longxi camp is as high as [-]. Above, more than a dozen evolutionaries, this is still on the surface. They also have a lot of hot weapons, and we have no chance."

Jiang Cheng nodded: "Is the giant dragon real?"

"The legend of 100 years ago, the dragon should have run away long ago." Liang Weilun said.

Ok.

The two exchanged some other things, and they temporarily separated.

At this time, the sky was not completely bright yet, and many wilderness people who could not afford to live in houses were still lying down under the eaves and sleeping soundly.

Of course, there are also many wilderness people who have gone outside to dig grass roots.

When he was about to return to his residence, Jiang Cheng once again saw the wilderness man who spat at him, who was lying sleeping more than 50 meters away.

With a sneer in his heart, he suddenly took out a compressed biscuit that weighed two or three, and said to a wilderness lying outside his residence, "Do you want it?"

The wilderness man on the ground was shaken, and hurriedly got up, looking eager and said: "I want it, what orders does your lord have?"

He obviously knew that free food was impossible.

"Did you see that man? Beat him up, and this compressed biscuit is yours." Jiang Cheng pointed to the wild man who spat at him in the distance and said.

The wilderness man on the ground looked around and saw that the people in the Longxi camp were not nearby, so he hesitated for a while and asked, "Can you kill them?"

Obviously he didn't want to leave any trouble behind.

Jiang Cheng: "...Of course, it's best if you can kill me, but don't push it on me."

The man in the wilderness immediately assured: "Don't worry, my lord. And it's useless even if I say it. Those people will only catch the perpetrators and ignore the people behind them."

As he said that, he looked longingly at the compressed biscuit in Jiang Cheng's hand, and said with difficulty: "Can you give it to me first? I haven't eaten for a long time, and I may not be able to beat that guy..."

Jiang Cheng raised his eyebrows and threw the compressed biscuit over.

"Thank you sir!"

The man in the wilderness was ecstatic, tearing off the film and biting wildly, he didn't care if he choked, obviously he was really hungry.

"My lord, watch!"

While eating, he looked around vigilantly, and then walked towards the distance without hesitation.

Wherever he passed, the wilderness people on the ground opened their eyes and looked at him vigilantly.

Obviously those people in the wilderness were not really asleep. Even if there was a threat from the Longxi camp here, no one dared to really relax their vigilance.

Soon, the wilderness eating compressed biscuits approached the wilderness who had humiliated Jiang Cheng before.

He quietly took out an iron awl, and the moment he was about to pass by the target, he rushed forward and inserted the iron awl into the opponent's chest, while covering the man's mouth tightly with one hand.

The wilderness man on the ground roared and struggled, but unfortunately he had eaten too much yesterday, so he relaxed his vigilance, and there was no chance again.

Behind, Jiang Cheng watched this scene with squinted eyes.

After more than ten seconds, the wild man who had humiliated him struggled no longer.

After the murderous wild man pulled out the iron awl, he quickly groped on the corpse, took away all the relics, and then quickly ran towards the dimly lit direction.

The people nearby hurriedly moved away from that position, but that was all. After leaving a certain distance, they continued to lie down, which seemed to be normal for a long time.

Even, a group of them hurried over, dragged the corpse and quickly left away from the gathering place.

As for what to do with the corpse... don't even think about it.

After the corpse was removed, the people nearby hesitated for a moment, then rushed over to lick the blood off the ground, and then lay back down again.

In the blink of an eye, nothing was left at the murder scene, it was as clean as if it had been cleaned.
