Chapter 28 Trading Markets
The base has not been in use for a long time, but it is much better than what they have heard about Nanshan.

Chi Yue thinks so.

She lowered her eyes and watched Wen Qizhou unscrew the obviously replaced lock cylinder, and pushed the door to enter the one-bedroom suite.

The layout of the suite is exactly the same as the pictures.

The furniture is complete, the doors and windows are in good condition, and the entrance of the base can be seen at a glance through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and the field of vision is quite wide.

They rolled up their sleeves and cleaned the suite, took out the mattress in the space, put it on the two-meter-high empty bed, wrapped the bed screen with a cover, and made a four-piece bed set.

After finishing everything, I spread a cotton blanket on the sofa, closed the small ventilation window, and sat down to rest for a while.

Wen Qizhou took two sips of tea, and glanced at the life manual beside him: "I saw in the manual that the trading market will provide service for finding people. Shall we go and ask tomorrow?"

"Looking for Su Linhao?"

"Well." Although Chi Yue had taken revenge, he still didn't want to let go of the person who tried to bully her.

Chi Yue has no objection.

Seeing that his eyes were as dark as black clouds pressing down on the city, she raised her chin, kissing his lips like a demon concubine who deceived the king and killed him: "When you kill him, I will reward you."

"What kind of reward?"

"Of course it is──" She intentionally elongated the ending, covered his ears, and slightly parted her lips: "The one you want."

Wen Qizhou raised his eyebrows slightly.

He stared at the apricot eyes that seemed to be hooking him, and slowly raised the hand around the slender waist. The palm touched her spine, landed on the skin of the back of her neck, and pushed forward a little.

As the distance between them got closer, he closed his eyes slightly to feel the intertwined breathing, the tip of his nose brushed against her smooth skin, and he covered the lips that touched his heartstrings without haste.

"Okay" escaped his lips.

With a hoarse and deep voice, Chi Yue's ears tingled, and she let herself fall into the tenderness he gave.

Until the feeling of suffocation hit, she pushed his shoulders twice, opened her eyes filled with thin water vapor, and turned her head to avoid the affectionate and ambiguous web he wove by herself.

She leaned against Wen Qizhou's arms, looked at the gradually darkening sky, and calmed down her heartbeat beating against her chest like a deer.

"嗞──嗞嗞──"

The sudden sound of electric current broke the silence.

A female voice with a perfect accent came to everyone's ears through the loudspeaker of the base.

"Urgent notice: From the 21th to the [-]st of this month, there will be strong convective weather in our city's jurisdiction, accompanied by short-term heavy precipitation, hail, and thunderstorm gusts. All residents of the base are requested to take precautions and stay away from trees and fragile objects! "

What she broadcasted was like a stone hitting a calm lake, causing ripples that could not be ignored.

The residents of the base wailed.

Chi Yue and Wen Qizhou were much calmer.

They closed the blackout curtains installed in the evening, used batteries to power the floor lamps, and then inserted the USB flash drive storing movies and TV series into the computer, and watched the series while having dinner.

The drama that is being played is extremely bloody.

At the beginning, it was the best friend of the male protagonist who cheated on his wife, but it was accidentally discovered that both the wife and her best friend were transgender.

When two transgender people were jealous of him and slapped each other, he continued to cheat and meet new transgender people.

Wen Qizhou: "..."

Looking at the extremely poor acting skills and frequent slap scenes, he was really curious: "How many episodes does this drama have?"

"69."

"...It's all about cheating transgender people?"

"No." Chi Yue turned her head, amused by his speechless expression: "When I was down, I read the suspenseful reasoning on the profile, and there should be a plot to solve the case."

"Solve the case? Can't tell."

"Thai dramas are very procrastinating." She didn't like to watch slaps, so she moved the mouse to close the page: "I'll change to another one."

The new one is still a suspense drama, but it is obviously much more normal than the messy cheating transgender plot.

Attracted by the wonderful plot, they followed the drama until two o'clock in the morning before moving to the double bed to embrace and sleep.

At noon, the sun poured down.

The trading market where people come and go is quite lively, and the figures reflected on the ground are elongated by the golden light, sometimes overlapping and scattered, making it difficult to distinguish who is who.

Wen Qizhou and Chi Yue followed the flow of people forward, looking around all the way, their eyes wandering over the shops and listing booths.

The shops are officially owned and sell items such as furniture, daily necessities, clothing, seasonings and fast food; the listing stalls are privately owned, and most of them use the method of bartering.

He saw a stall dedicated to looking for people, took Chi Yue's hand and asked the stall owner, "How much supplies are you looking for?"

"How many are you looking for?"

"One."

"One is an item of 80 points." The stall owner patted his chest: "My friend has been looking for people for 30 years. As long as you give accurate information, I will definitely find you within three days!"

"What if I can't find it?"

"I won't take anything if I can't find it!" He bit off the cap of the ballpoint pen: "My buddy is a real person, and he won't cheat you."

Wen Qizhou didn't get too entangled.

After all, the base only provides services for finding immediate family members. If you want to find Su Linhao, you still have to deal with the stall owner.

He mentioned Su Linhao's characteristics, and took out half of the points as a deposit: "I will come to you in three days."

"Alright." He nodded with a smile.

They continued to move forward under the watchful eye of the stall owner, dazzled by the various gadgets on the stall.

Chi Yue stopped in front of the aromatherapy booth.

The seller of aromatherapy should be a pregnant woman, and her listing says that one box of folic acid or vitamin E is exchanged for six boxes of aromatherapy essential oils.

She happens to have them all in her space.

When Wen Qizhou was asked to buy medicines, he considered all aspects, such as family planning supplies and medicines for pregnant women.

"Do you choose the fragrance at will? Or is it fixed?" She lowered her eyes and looked at the aromatherapy essential oils piled on the table.

"Choose whatever you want!" The pregnant mother's eyes lit up as she stroked her belly, "What kind of flavor do you want? I'll help you pack it."

"Take three boxes of green bamboo and cedar." She has always disliked strong fragrances, and more elegant ones are better.

After the pregnant mother packed six boxes of intact aromatherapy essential oils, she took out 30 pieces of folic acid and put them on the table.

"Thank you!" The pregnant mother held the folic acid tightly, and gave her an aromatherapy pendant: "Folic acid is too hard to find now, I will exchange it with you for aromatherapy, and I took advantage of you."

"How can you take advantage of bartering?" No matter what the environment is, there are always groups with more resources than others.

Aromatherapy is not without market.

The pregnant mother smiled innocently: "That's what I said, but I always feel that you are at a loss."

"It's not a loss, I don't need it either." Now that they can't even see the future clearly, how can she and Wen Qizhou have a baby.

"Okay." After thanking her again, she reminded in a low voice: "There are many pickpockets here, so you must take care of your bags. If you lose something, you may not be able to find it back."
