Chapter 138 138. Apocalyptic Plane-39
Cheng Xi stared at the figure in a daze.
The milk cup held in both hands exudes heat that is neither hot nor cold, and a familiar milk fragrance wafts from the mouth of the cup.
The sound of celebrities laughing came from the TV, but at this time, Cheng Xi had no interest and quietly stared at the tall figure washing and chopping vegetables in the kitchen.
He seems to have grown taller again.
I wonder if my height will be the same as it is now when I return to Shenjiacun after my trip here?
This is a question worth thinking about.
【Of course it will be what it is now. How can a person's growth time go back to the beginning? Theoretically speaking, time is irreversible. This is a law of nature. 】
“Oh, you actually have the nerve to say this?”
Cheng Xi was brought back to reality by Gan Ling’s voice, “Who took it upon himself to deduct 100 million interstellar coins to make time? Backdated? ”
As a result, she is now forced to repay the debt.
【.】
I was completely choked to death by one sentence, and 666 selectively shut down the microphone.
Cheng Xi naturally cannot be serious with a little fool whose brain short-circuits from time to time. In fact, if she hadn't gone back in time, she wouldn't have the life she has now.
“How many supplies have been sold in the supermarket in the past two days?”
[A total of 3,587,219 interstellar coins, business is very good~]
What's the use of it? It's not all used to pay off debts.
Cheng Xi sighed, feeling that there was a long way to go. Compared with selling supplies, it would be better to go out and kill zombies to make money faster.
After all, one head is worth 1,000 interstellar coins.
When the rain stopped, she immediately left the base.
make a fist!
The aroma gradually came from the kitchen, and Cheng Xi's stomach rumbled again.
She drank the milk in the cup and let the variety show play on the TV. She walked to the kitchen door in a few steps and looked in.
Shen Xingluo's camouflage uniform has long been taken off, revealing the dark blue T-shirt underneath. His white skin is clearly visible, and his posture looks very professional.
“You need to wait a little longer, the ribs are not yet cooked.”
"In the oven?"
"Well, it should taste good. I made it according to the recipe."
This is the first time that Shen Xingluo cooks so seriously. Before, he just helped. Barbecuing or cooking noodles, fortunately there is a universal system that can search for recipes for different ways.
Fried eggs with tomatoes, winter melon and shrimp skin soup, fried meat with garlic sprouts, and boiled lettuce.
Although the color is a bit different - it seems like too much soy sauce was added? — but at least it smells good.
"What is the staple food?"
"."
Cheng Xi saw the very professional chef in front of him freeze on the spot at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Okay, I get it.
***
The heavy rain continued all night.
All the survivors had an uneasy sleep that night. The zombies outside the base wall howled all night long, the sound loud and clear.
The survivors at the Central China Base no longer choose to go out to search for supplies or perform tasks, but are waiting for something tremblingly.
The moment the rain stopped, Xu Qingzhou started a carpet patrol with his men armed from head to toe, not sparing any corner of the base to ensure that there were no zombies active.
The next afternoon, news came from the biological laboratory connected to the office building.
"After testing, it was confirmed that the soil has been contaminated, the germination rate is very low, and even if it can grow, it will carry the virus."
"What about the water quality?"
"Except for groundwater, anything Everyone who has been exposed to rain has been polluted to a certain extent."
Two bad news in succession broke down the defense of those in power, and their faces became gloomy again.
On that day, Big Speaker announced a series of measures. From this day on, the wood and water type superpowers in major bases became the most special existence among superpowers. As an interstellar supermarket that can provide clean water, it has once again become the most dazzling place in the base.
“The mineral water sold today is 10 times that of usual. How much inventory do we have?”
“There are not many bottled mineral water, but there are a lot of barrels. According to today’s The speed is enough to sell it for a month."
Cheng Xi thought of the filtration system installed in the drinking water factory and had an idea.
“According to the system, the water and electricity in the villa are unlimited, and we can perform simple filtering ourselves.”
"What's so complicated? Just sell tap water."
"."
Ah, there is someone more profiteer than me?
Perhaps Cheng Xi’s eyes were too straightforward, and Shen Xingluo twitched the corner of his mouth.
"What I mean is that even running water is rare for survivors, and quality inventory is the most important thing."
"I understand."
It's just cheaper.
Cheng Xi felt that she was doing charity. Originally, mineral water was not expensive, a bottle cost only 10 interstellar coins, which was the same price as instant noodles.
But in any case, it was a business without capital. Since the opening of Interstellar Supermarket, no goods have been purchased in the system.
Except for the black technology of defense bracelets.
"I plan to put some vegetables on the special shelves today, what do you think?"
"Okay, the ones in the space grow very fast."
The two eat a lot, and the ones in the villa area The vegetable garden was enough for the two of them, not to mention the many vegetable seeds harvested in City A, which were scattered by Shen Xingluo in the wasteland outside the villa.
If allowed to grow wildly for so long, it would have overrun long ago.
Just do it, Cheng Xi told the system to look at the supermarket, then went to the space, picked up the sickle and started to pick it up.
Spinach, lettuce, rapeseed
One-stop process of harvesting, bagging, loading and pricing.
Shen Xingluo was responsible for restocking the goods and placed the bottled water in the most eye-catching position.
When another day comes, customers enter the Star Supermarket again and are completely attracted by the green color of the shelves.
“That’s a vegetable? It’s really a vegetable!”
"Oh my god, am I hallucinating? I can actually see vegetables here!"
"Is it okay to eat it? Now even the base canteen doesn't have such fresh food!"
“That’s right, they are raised in the base. Most of them have been soaked by rain, why are they still here?”
“I don’t care, I haven’t eaten vegetables for a long time, I have to eat them today even if I die!”
“ Hurry, go check out the price! ”
Customers rushed forward in droves, eager to pick up the entire special shelf and rush out. The scene was very intense at one time.
It wasn’t until the system sounded a warning sound at the right time that I gave up in frustration.
After the last incident of picking quarrels and causing trouble and being punished, no one dared to act recklessly in the supermarket again.
That is a lesson learned in blood.
Just when everyone ran into the Interstellar Supermarket to make purchases, Xu Qingzhou and Mu Cong approached Shen Xingluo and Shen Xingluo again.
At this time, five days had passed since the devastating rain.
“The crystal core purification liquid has been extracted.”
Xu Qingzhou took out a vial containing blue liquid from his body, “You are right, the materials in the meteorite pile can indeed change the crystal nucleus. Nuclear form and further purification."
When he returned to the base five days ago, Shen Xingluo reminded him that the meteorite pile might be useful.
