The overall atmosphere in the Xitang Safety Zone is much more tense than that in the Taijing Safety Zone. Most of the ordinary survivors have sallow and thin faces and sad faces. The most obvious thing is the official public canteen where meals are based on work points. The food and dishes are larger than those in the Taijing Safety Zone. Much less.
Rong Xianxian learned from Yan Xiaoyuan that the mercenary convoy would be repaired here for about a week. It was not that Wen Qingming did not want to rush, but that the mercenary team was in short supply of various materials. From the Xitang Safety Zone to The next safe zone is separated by a vast mountainous area with complex terrain and many dangers. They have to reserve supplies in advance to cope with the long journey ahead.
Rong Xianxian did not take this path in her previous life. She never met Binyang and Wen Qingming after they separated. When she stayed in Taijing, she got into the official team passing by Taijing. This team did not go directly to the capital, but also took a detour from the east, which would take about a month longer than taking the Xitang side.
On that road, only the memory of Rong Xianxian's arduous trek was left. She did not encounter any good things or find any opportunities. Instead, she was killed in the safe zone of Chongshui Town a few months later. It was enough for her to know who her enemy was. , since taking that path is a waste of time, is there any benefit, of course there is no need to relive the memories of the previous life.
The time point of this life is much earlier than that of the previous life, and after passing Xitang, the next safe zone is the Wuling safe zone. Wang Qirui's hometown is in Wuling.
The original purpose of their group was to return to their hometowns to find relatives. Regardless of whether Wang Qirui wanted to stay in his hometown or go to Beijing with Rong Xianxian, since everyone has supported them all the way here, Rong Xianxian and the others must accompany them. Wang Qirui took a trip to Wuling.
When arriving in a new safe zone, it is most important to first understand the actual situation and prices of the place, and to exchange for the common currency in the safe zone.
The official food reserves in the Xitang Safety Zone are limited, living materials are in short supply, and the survivors are living in distress. The officials are unable to accept more people, especially as winter is coming soon. Food reserves are a top priority. In order to reserve food, even the military They all turned on hunting mode.
In order to encourage survivors to go out of the safe zone and support themselves by collecting wild vegetables and fruits and hunting monsters, the officials deliberately placed many guns and ammunition, military bayonets, spears, swords and halberds in the exchange. These weapons can be exchanged for food, or Use monster corpses, edible wild animals and plants to trade, and even have a dedicated area to rent weapons to survivors in the safe zone.
Xitang Safety Zone is a major energy province. There is a large iron mine not far from the safety zone. Xitang officials have opened a special cold weapons manufacturing factory nearby, specializing in the production of cold weapons such as swords, guns, swords and halberds.
At that time, in order to establish this cold weapons manufacturing plant, the Xitang military spent a lot of effort and paid a lot of money. Of course, it was all worth it. This cold weapons manufacturing plant used modern high-tech steel smelting technology. , mature technology, advanced equipment, and high production efficiency, which are far beyond what small private workshops can match.
Xitang officials exchanged these cold weapons for a lot of supplies with the adjacent safety zone, and even attracted many caravans of private explorers.
Rong Xianxian looked at the dazzling array of cold weapons in the Xitang official exchange, and was really shocked. She had never seen any exchange arranged like a weapons exhibition hall, and the prices of these cold weapons were very favorable. The spurs commonly used in the army are of good quality and material, and the price is only ten pounds of grain. Edible meat, rice, wheat, flour, soybeans, and corn are all acceptable, with rice preferred.
The exchange ratio between work points and grain is one to one, that is, one work point is equal to one kilogram of grain.
The price of the same military thorn in other safe zones is more than ten times that here. Sure enough, no matter what it is, the price is the lowest in the country of origin.
Rong Xianxian fell in love with a heavy long sword, probably because it cost more materials. The price of this long sword is thirty kilograms of grain. The weapons here are so cheap, it's just cabbage price. It's just right to buy more. After all, there is no such store after passing this village.
After passing through countless safe zones, Rong Xianxian and the others were very familiar with the rules for entering the city, accommodation, and transactions in the safe zone. They had hunted many monsters before entering the Xitang safe zone. Rong Xianxian was still in the trunk of the RV. Put some food.
"Sister Rong, the exchange has been completed. The six monsters have been exchanged for a total of 23,300 work points. The individual price of each one is here." While Rong Xianxian was looking around, Cui Lie, Wang Lin, and Xia Kai They came over, and Cui Lie handed over a redemption list and a stack of work score cards common in the safety zone.
Cui Lie and the others brought in six monsters at once, which shocked the onlookers and the staff of the exchange. After all, even the largest civilian team in the safe zone could not bring out so many monsters at once. To make a deal.
However, soon they no longer cared about watching Cui Lie and the others. There were forty or fifty civil groups who came with Wen Qingming and his team. Each team had more or less gains. After Cui Lie and the others, they After completing the exchange, those people came one after another.
Of the six monsters, the largest one was hunted by Rong Xianxian, the other two more difficult ones were hunted by Cui Lie, and the remaining three were hunted by Xia Kai, Wang Qirui, Wang Lin, Jiang Jie, and Rong Xianxian. The monster Xianxian hunted was large and valuable, and cost more than 9,000 work points. The others also received corresponding work points based on their respective harvests.
Rong Xianxian held a thick work-point card and looked at the weapons glowing everywhere, and started the buying mode without hesitation.
"Doctor Rong, the weapons I made with my eyes closed are many times better than these. Why did you buy this?" Tomorrow Lei pulled Rong Xianxian aside and whispered.
"With such a cheap price, you can make a lot of money by selling it. It's just like picking it up for free. Why not buy it?" Rong Xianxian asked with innocent eyes.
"You bought so much, can you pretend it? Even if you can pretend it, you should choose carefully. We have just arrived. What if you see something good again later?" Tomorrow Lei pointed at Rong Xianxian to buy Said the bundles of long swords.
Tomorrow Lei has only joined Rong Xianxian's team for a short period of time, and has not yet discovered the secret of Rong Xianxian's storage space. Everyone discovered this by themselves and then tacitly understood it, so no one went out of their way to tell Tomorrow Lei about this. thing.
Rong Xianxian just smiled and said, "Brother Ming, don't worry, I know what's going on."
