Chapter 83: The Children of Unorthodox People

Ren Xiaosu looked at the packet of broken cigarette boxes will be some heartache, according to Wang Fugui store a twenty dollar cigarette money to calculate, the store’s cigarettes have to be worth how much money?

What’s more, on this street, Ren Xiaosu roughly estimated that there are at least five or six tobacco hotels.

At this moment, Ren Xiaosu converted the price of goods, thinking that before the disaster, human beings can really have money ah ……

In his haste, Ren Xiaosu didn’t even realize that tobacco wasn’t really a popular material before the disaster. Ren Xiaosu turned his head to look at the wine displayed on the wall at the back of the store, the outer boxes of the wine had long since disappeared because they were not protected by plastic, and they were all bare bottles.

Some of the bottles seemed to have fallen to the ground and shattered because of the earthquake, and some of them were still on the cabinet, but Ren Xiaosu casually opened them and realized that the wine inside was long gone.

I don’t know how long has passed since the disaster, but the wine in the bottles has evaporated.

Ren Xiaosu muttered, “The former winery didn’t know to make the sealing better?!”

He disbelievingly shook the well-preserved wine bottles one by one, and the results were all without exception, the wine inside was long gone.

In fact, this kind of wine to save all need specialized preservation technology reprocessing, such as sealing wax and so on, otherwise fifty years old wine out of only half a bottle that is a common thing.

Nowadays, the most expensive in the market town is actually cigarettes, alcohol, drugs, especially alcohol this thing is simply prohibited, but the people in the market town is more urbane, the more prohibited things on the contrary, the more valuable.

Originally, when Ren Xiaosu saw these stores, he thought he had found a huge treasure, but now he suddenly realized that his previous fantasies were all bullshit.

Time and catastrophe were like a huge knife, cutting off both the new and old civilizations with a single slash. Ren Xiaosu thought to himself, “Tobacco and alcohol are like this, so medicines are even more so.

Just now he also saw a pharmacy ready to explore it, but as a result, it seems that there is no need to explore it now.

Ren Xiaosu walked to the street and thought seriously, what is there that has no shelf life? Or maybe the shelf life could be as high as hundreds of years?

He suddenly saw a store beside him with the name of Birth Control Health Care, but Ren Xiaosu didn’t go in, after all, in his opinion this should be a store selling health care products, but what health care products can’t be stored for so long ah.

He once again confirmed that the attention of the Qing Consortium had not shifted to his side, so he put his heart down again. At this time, Ren Xiaosu could still hear the sound of gunfire from the periphery, which made him very puzzled, was that experimental body even so powerful?

But at this time he suddenly thought of one thing …… that can reach hundreds of years without decaying, is not it precisely metal?

Ren Xiaosu turned his head openly, he heard Wang Fugui say that there is a gold store in the wall, then this city is so grand in scale, there must also be!

Ren Xiaosu, who was still in a slightly depressed mood before, regained his fighting spirit!

Gold is still a hard currency these days, Ren Xiaosu had curiously asked Zhang Jinglin why gold is still needed as a hard currency after having the currency issued by Qing’s bank.

Zhang Jinglin smiled and answered him, ”Because there is more than just Qing’s Bank issuing currency, maybe your currency can still be used in Qing’s Consortium’s territory, but it won’t be able to be used when you get to other barriers. At this time, something that is easy to measure and easy to value needs to appear to replace the use of paper currency.”

In fact, currency is also a way for the consortiums to control the barriers of refuge of each house, they let people get used to the convenience of paper currency, but it’s up to them to decide how much currency to issue.

This was the true economic lifeline, one of the fundamentals of a consortium.

However, Zhang Jinglin explained, “Now because of the currency circulation problem, several consortia have formed a currency management committee, and everyone has strict rules for issuing currency, so it’s not like the world is in chaos. But now that everyone is in harmony, who can guarantee that it will still be like this in the future?”

At this time Ren Xiaosu thought back to Zhang Jinglin’s words, then he felt more and more that Zhang Jinglin was not simple, no one knew where this school teacher came from, and he stayed in the market town outside of Barrier 113 for many years at a time.

Ren Xiaosu made up his mind that this time he must go back and observe Zhang Jinglin properly.

He explored over towards places further away from the Qing Clan’s consortium, trying to look for the existence of a gold store like this, in case there were gold stores left behind, wouldn’t he be rich then?

……

In the backyard of the market town academy, Zhang Jinglin had just returned to the courtyard after a day of lectures, he smiled when he saw Yan Liuyuan, who had already stepped out of the house and was basking in the sun, “Almost as good as it gets, right?”

“Well,” Yan Liu Yuan nodded and smiled, “Thank you sir and sister Xiaoyu for taking care of me during this period of time.”

Yan Liu Yuan was in an exceptionally good mood at this time, but not because of his own condition, rather he knew that since his condition had not worsened, it meant that Ren Xiaosu was not able to use her “luck” in many ways, which meant that Ren Xiaosu had not encountered any real danger.

Sister Xiaoyu walked in from outside with a basket on her arm, when she saw Yan Liuyuan, she said in surprise: “Liuyuan, are you cured, quickly go inside, don’t be blown by the cold wind.”

Yan Liu Yuan smiled in a cute way, “Sister Xiaoyu I’m fine, don’t worry about it, what are we going to eat tonight?”

“I’ll fry you an egg and small green vegetables,” Sister Xiaoyu laughed, “I just went to the market town and cut a little bit of fat meat, so I can boil the oil and fry it for you, so you can taste the meat.”

“Okay,” Yan Liu Yuan agreed, but this was while he was walking out, “I’m going out, I’ll definitely be back before dark!”

Sister Xiaoyu just wanted to stop him, but when she turned around, Yan Liuyuan had already disappeared.

She worriedly stood at the entrance of the school and waited, Zhang Jinglin said in his heart just a moment ago, you are not still ready to cook it, this wait to what time, but he was also embarrassed to open his mouth and say ……

In Zhang Jinglin’s opinion, Ren Xiaosu and Yan Liuyuan, a small brother and two brothers are not a casual loss of the Lord, they go out, should be worried about others ah.

Just now, Zhang Jinglin clearly saw Yan Liuyuan hiding the kitchen knife in his arms, who would bring a kitchen knife when going out? Who would bring a kitchen knife when they go out? Can this be a decent kid?

However, Yan Liyuan did come back before dark, Zhang Jinglin and Sister Xiaoyu didn’t know where Yan Liyuan had gone, and when asked, he didn’t say, just smiled and changed the subject to something else.

There are three rooms in the backyard of the academy, but one is the kitchen, one is for Zhang Jinglin, and the other is for Yan Liuyuan and Sister Xiaoyu.

At night, Sister Xiaoyu would pack up Yan Liuyuan’s bed, while she slept on the ground, and the ground was very cold at this time of winter, but Sister Xiaoyu never said anything.

After putting out the kerosene lamp, Sister Xiaoyu suddenly asked Yan Liuyuan: “Do you think your brother is safe now?”

Yan Liuyuan said with a smile, “Definitely safe, don’t worry.”

Sister Xiaoyu froze for a moment, she did not know why Yan Liuyuan was so sure.
