Uh, yeah.
"I have one more here, see if there's anything else you can exchange it for?"
The customer continued to ask.
Upon hearing this, Sang Luoluo continued, "Would you trade a box of strawberries? It's about 10 pounds."
Strawberries? Those are a rare treat, so I asked, "Are they radiation-free?"
"Yes."
The customer decisively said, "Change."
Sang Luoluo took out a box of strawberries from another suitcase. They were neatly arranged, and each strawberry was about the size of a child's fist. The other party inspected the goods on the spot.
Sang Luoluo actually thought that exchanging food directly was quite a good deal, since the prices hadn't been like this before. Thinking back to her last visit here, when she handed over so many potatoes, she felt like she was easily taken advantage of.
Seeing that Sang Luoluo had brought some nice things, the host wondered which powerful family she belonged to, and quickly came over and whispered to Sang Luoluo, "Please take your things upstairs to exchange them."
Sang Luoluo thought it was feasible; it was already past 10 p. m., and it wouldn't be a waste of time.
Sang Luoluo packed what she wanted to exchange into a large suitcase, Sang Luoluo it directly onto the stage, took out two live hens, tied their feet, and looked at the crowd below, saying, "Two live hens. You can choose to eat them directly or keep them to lay eggs. I want to exchange them for some supplies other than food."
"I have an emergency kit here, which includes an escape rope, whistle, reflective vest, portable flashlight, knife, breathing mask, portable oxygen cylinder, fire blanket, and lighting equipment. It also contains medical supplies such as alcohol and iodine for emergency injuries in the mountains. You can come down and take a look."
Looking at the large bag full of items, Sang Luoluo decisively replied, "Change it."
Sang Yunpu brought the items over; these emergency supplies were also needed by his family.
Sang Luoluo continued taking things out of her suitcase, "Two bottles of red wine, radiation-free."
Sang Yunpu raised an eyebrow. How come Luoluo even has this kind of thing?
The wealthy people in the audience recognized this item; it was rarely circulated even among the base's upper echelons, and was highly sought after but unavailable—even with points, it couldn't be bought.
Which faction does this guy belong to?
Chapter 61: Time to Collect Supplies! They were sent from the base lab...
Even if they don't use the red wine, they can give it as a gift later.
"I have some fuel here, look, 100 bottles."
Sang Luoluo saw that his sack was full of fuel, then turned to look at Sang Yunpu. Sang Yunpu nodded, agreeing that it was necessary to replace it, so Sang Luoluo decided to do so.
"I have some too, I have 100 bottles of fuel."
Sang Luoluo looked at the other person, rummaged in the box, and pulled out a styrofoam box of apples. "Want to trade 10 pounds of apples?"
The man decisively replied, "Change!"
Sang Luoluo decisively exchanged the items.
Those watching saw that Sang Luoluo acted decisively, without haggling back and forth with one person. Besides, once she sold what she had, it was gone.
"Look at mine! I have a shield here! It's made of special materials; it can block damage and even bullets."
"And mine, I have two bulletproof vests here, officially produced. These two don't have serial numbers, but I need more food to trade for them."
"And mine, I have some warm clothes here, cheap, to exchange for food."
"A tent, an officially produced tent."
"..."
Sang Luoluo watched them promote their wares. Since they only had a few suitcases, Sang Luoluo picked out the most important items to exchange. The shield wasn't a big deal; she had Giant Wood, which would have the same effect. However, the bulletproof vest was definitely necessary.
Sang Luoluo took out 50 ears of fresh corn and exchanged them for two bulletproof vests.
Then I traded 50 ears of corn for 5 vials of recovery medicine. This stuff can be used for any common cold or fever; it's like an inhibitor that can suppress the effects of radiation to some extent and speed up recovery when you're sick.
Having acquired these items, Sang Luoluo and Sang Yunpu withdrew from the auction. Their suitcases were already full, and carrying them out on the street would likely attract attention.
Not long after the two left the auction, Sang Yunpu discovered that someone was following them.
" Luoluo, someone is following us."
Sang Luoluo was startled and looked back; indeed, there were several people acting suspiciously.
Sang Yunpu already had a laser gun in his hand, ready to fire at any moment. Seeing that the group had quickened their pace and disappeared into the alley, Sang Luoluo quickly put several boxes into her spatial storage, Sang Yunpu pulled her along as they ran through the black market.
Their clothes made them easily recognizable.
After running through several streets, they discovered that the group's influence extended beyond the few people following them; there were also others blocking their way from the front.
Sang Yunpu couldn't help but smile wryly, "We were too conspicuous at the auction just now."
Sang Luoluo shrugged. "What can we do? If we want to exchange supplies, we have to take risks."
"Let's find a place to change clothes first. I remember this street; I even rented a shop here. Brother, come with me."
Sang Luoluo led him through a maze of turns, successfully navigating the crowd, until they reached her rented shop. She opened the door, went inside, and locked it.
"You even rented a shop on the black market!! How many points would that cost?" Sang Yunpu was surprised; Sang Luoluo hadn't told him about this beforehand.
Sang Luoluo said, "It's not much. I rented it for a month last time for convenience while doing a mission, as a temporary place to stay."
She then took out two new sets of clothes from her spatial storage. The two found a place to change, and Sang Luoluo carefully changed her shoes as well before going out.
"Let's see if there's anything else we can trade on the black market."
Sang Luoluo said cheerfully, and the two of them, each carrying a backpack, went out.
Sang Yunpu also felt the convenience of Sang Luoluo's spatial ability, and thinking that he and his sister had similar genes, he might awaken a similar ability in the future. He also wanted such a spatial ability.
After they went out this time, no one stared at them when they walked down the street.
Luckily I ran fast enough that I even got my laser gun out.
There are many stalls on the street, all in order to exchange for some food.
"Brother, do you think we need anything at home?"
Sang Yunpu looked around and realized that his family was missing so many things. He dragged Sang Luoluo around the streets to look for ropes made of wild hemp grass. They were thick and strong and didn't cost much. Sang Luoluo traded a potato the size of her palm for three of them.
It's always good to have this on hand.
"Come and see! Homemade car! Don't be fooled by the wooden body; the tires and drive system are all genuine. It's electric, so you can drive it around when needed," the vendor introduced his wares.
Sang Luoluo was intrigued and pointed over there, pulling Sang Yunpu along, "Don't we need a car too?"
She was quite reluctant to part with the modified cars in the space.
Sang Yunpu glanced at it a few more times, then pulled Sang Luoluo aside. "I don't think we should buy it. Those handmade cars are very easily identifiable. If the two of us drive out from here, it will be easy for others to find out about us later."
Sang Luoluo suddenly realized that she had almost bought it; she had been blinded by her shopping spree.
Then Sang Yunpu continued, "It's not difficult to build that car. I'll buy some spare parts later. Don't you have a lot of giant trees in your space? We can build the car ourselves. The cost will be low, and the materials used will be safe. To be honest, it's hard to say whether he's cut corners on the things he sells."
Sang Luoluo wholeheartedly agreed, giving a thumbs up. "Brother, it has to be you!"
Besides that, Sang Yunpu took Sang Luoluo to the black market to exchange for things that could be used in daily life.
The fuel canisters they bought at the auction needed a small stove to hold the gas cylinders, so Sang Luoluo traded two arm-length fresh white radishes for a stove.
There were also gloves; a pair of non-slip gloves was traded for a potato.
Sang Luoluo bought 200 pairs of soft, comfortable socks and 50 ears of corn all by herself.
Sang Luoluo bought so many socks that Sang Yunpu thought she had gone crazy, but he couldn't stop her. Sang Luoluo had her own reasons: she could wear the socks slowly, but given the limited resources, she didn't want to be unable to wash them.
There were also wooden basins; Sang Luoluo traded two white radishes for four.
After wandering around for so long, it was already past 1 a. m.
Sang Luoluo felt that was enough, so she took Sang Yunpu back to the rented shop, put the things in her spatial storage, and then went back home.
After leaving the black market, the two each carried an empty backpack. They had plenty of time, weren't sleepy at two in the morning, and figured it would only take half an hour to walk home.
The two were wearing raincoats. There were still some people on the street busy collecting supplies, and some had even started looting.
Gunshots rang out in the street. When someone passed by the two of them, seeing that Sang Luoluo Sang Luoluo small, he snatched her backpack and used a sharp knife to slit her raincoat. Inevitably, Sang Luoluo's arm was cut open, and she was knocked down to the side of the road.
Seeing that Sang Luoluo was so easily pushed over, the man tried to snatch Sang Yunpu's backpack. Sang Yunpu reacted and dodged the attack. The man had a knife in his hand. Sang Yunpu glanced at Sang Luoluo worriedly, then pulled out a laser gun and pointed it at him.
When the man saw that Sang Yunpu had a gun, he was terrified, grabbed his backpack, and ran away.
Sang Yunpu was furious that someone dared to hurt his sister. He aimed at him and fired, but the man moved quickly and was shot in the back. The man was quick-witted and jumped into the sewer.
"Brother, don't chase after him. Let's go!" Sang Luoluo said, clutching her arm, unsure if the man had accomplices.
Sang Yunpu saw that the ground was already covered with bloodstains.
Sang Luoluo took out an umbrella. Sang Yunpu held the umbrella in one hand and supported Sang Luoluo with the other. Blood was flowing uncontrollably. He said worriedly, "Let's go to the base hospital."
