The next day, Jin Ke got up early and went to the official building with Xie Man to call Jin's father.
At that time, Jin's father was resting on his desk, with a pair of unfinished documents and various approvals at hand.
Jin's father's secretary quietly closed the door, rubbed his sore waist, and prepared to go back and take a nap.
The official building was quiet, so quiet that you could clearly hear the sound of a pin dropping.
"Dang Dang Dang"
Sherman knocked on the door, but no one came to open the door.
Since they officially settled in the Doomsday City, the office staff inside have adjusted their off-duty system. Now there is no longer nine to six in the morning, but now it is 11 to 5, with no rest time in between.
Because there were too many things to deal with, we simply moved the meal time away and everyone ate in the cafeteria before going to work.
There are public canteens in the city, but you need to redeem them with certain points to get through the canteen. The meal card used in the canteen is a unified big pot meal, and corresponding points are deducted for each meal. It is more cost-effective than redeeming points, and you don't have to cook at home.
Because many survivors can't even live in a room with a kitchen, they rent a single room to cover the roof.
Most suites are rented by groups. Several people live in one room. For example, like Jiang Ying, there are basically no people in the group who live in a villa in a single room with a private bathroom, except for a large family.
The two opened the door and saw Jin's father lying down and resting. Xie Man sighed, went over and put the thick clothes he brought on Jin's father, and then took Jin Ke to rest on the sofa.
…
Jiang Ying had washed up and was getting ready to go out today. She was accompanied by Chen Lingling and Mo Yao to see if the stalls and black markets outside were really that easy to visit!
For breakfast, a few of them simply drank rice porridge and each ate a sweet potato. They planned to go to the canteen at the base to try something new at noon!
The three of them first went to the vendors under the city wall. Jiang Ying found that the vendors here were filled with some weird-looking stones.
Mo Yao saw Jiang Ying's doubts and helped explain: "Boss, I heard that this is ten yuan that can be used to extract energy crystals, but the price is still so low."
Jiang Ying knew clearly, isn't this just a traditional stone! But seeing as these stones are sold so cheaply, there may not necessarily be something inside.
Jiang Ying secretly used his mental power to detect it, but found that there was no breath of crystal on these stones. They were probably stones picked up from somewhere.
Jiang Ying saw an old man passing by on a straw rope and asked:
"Old man, where did you dig this stone from?"
The old man pointed to the side of the base: "I haven't reached the city yet. In the rubble pile under our city wall, I heard that a large energy stone was dug out a few days ago, so there are many people digging now."
On the pile of rubble outside the city wall, Jiang Ying silently noted this strange point.
The two of them continued shopping and found that there were very few vendors selling clothes and food now, most of them were dispensable items, and they didn't see any daily necessities.
Moreover, everyone was wearing tattered cotton clothes wrapped around the outer clothes. A gust of cold wind blew, and the thinly dressed people shivered.
Jiang Ying shook her head. There was nothing to see here, not as complete as the exchange building.
Chen Lingling: "Boss, that's the black market in this city you haven't visited yet. Tsk tsk. The gap between this black market and the small vendors outside is huge. Although it's not as good as the supermarkets we visited before the end of the world, it's comparable to small supermarkets and convenience stores. Not that bad.
"Then let's go shopping?"
The two nodded: "But the black market can only open after four o'clock in the afternoon. No one comes out during the day."
The things on the black market are all precious materials. People without certain strength and influence will not go to the black market to sell stalls. The light in the black market is blurry at night, so you are not allowed to bring strong light in, which helps to hide sellers and buyers. His identity must not be exposed, otherwise the risk of entering the black market would be too great.
Jiang Ying thought about it, and the three of them planned to wait until it got dark before going to the black market.
"Then let's go take a look outside the city wall. I'm quite interested in that pair of gravels!"
After coming here for a few days, several people already knew the use of energy crystals, and they followed Jiang Ying out of the city with a trace of curiosity.
There was a long queue outside the city gate. In the past few days, survivors from all over the country had entered the city one after another. There were even some Y country people among these survivors, and their iconic appearance was very conspicuous.
Jiang Ying asked a rare question: "Can those from country Y also get letters of authorization to enter the city of doomsday?"
Chen Lingling nodded: "That should be the case, boss, these people are immigrants who have obtained country H identity cards!"
Jiang Ying noticed that those people from the Y country were strong and strong, and they looked like they didn't want to escape, and their eyes were sharp and their faces were cold...
Jiang Ying was stunned! These people are not normal, they are not ordinary survivors, they definitely have some skills.
It would be fine if they were ordinary survivors who knew kung fu, but they are foreigners, not of my race, and their minds must be different. I am afraid that they want to sneak into the doomsday city with some purpose.
Jiang Ying thought for a while, then used her mental power to control a small piece of gravel and threw it at it. The burly man with blond hair and blue eyes at the head flew the stone sideways.
And looked straight in the direction of Jiang Ying.
Jiang Ying immediately looked away and calmly passed by the people who had just entered the city.
Jiang Ying put a touch of his spiritual aura on a few people, preparing to look for their traces after returning from the rubble pile.
There is order in the Doomsday City now. If there is any special power, Jin Ke must be told as soon as possible.
Several people kept walking along the base of the city wall.
"Boss, look, is it that pile of rubble?"
Jiang Ying followed Chen Lingling and saw a piece of rubble piled under the city wall not far away.
Strange, how come there are a pair of rubbles under the city wall and no one has cleaned them away?
Survivors from the city gathered around the rubble pile. Most of them were wearing thin clothes. They were shoveling the rubble, hoping to find an energy crystal and exchange for more supplies.
When Jiang Ying just walked here, he felt that there were indeed energy crystals here, and the aura was huge, but they were not in this pile of rubble.
Jiang Ying originally wanted to go up and investigate, but there were too many survivors around him. At this time, someone turned around and found that three more women had arrived. He thought they were people who wanted a piece of the pie, and their eyes suddenly became even more unkind. , there was a feeling that if the three of them took another step forward, they would ask for the booth fee.
"Let's go back first"
Jiang Ying felt that there was no need to conflict with these people here. There were a lot of people coming and going here, which was too eye-catching. Some things were better done quietly. Just sneak back here after going to the black market at night.
It seems that these people will not dig stones again at night. After all, the temperature in the leaves is dozens of degrees lower than during the day. If it were not for the strange fire of Yuan Bao in his body, Jiang Ying would not dare to take risks easily.
