Chapter 10 Grain Seeds
Bao-ye? You fat man, I think I am a street girl!
When Zhou Yan heard these two words, she was almost angry. Although she loved food coupons, she had a bottom line. Even for her husband who had just died, she would not betray her body.
He was so angry that his teeth were itchy. On the surface, Zhou Yan remained silent last time, and even threw a charming look at the fat man with a slutty smile on his face, then stretched out two fingers.
"Twenty kilograms of food coupons? No problem."
This girl is very hot and coquettish, and she is definitely more powerful than those street girls. Twenty kilograms of food coupons are definitely worth it. Li Ba hurriedly took out twenty kilograms of food coupons and planned to pay first to show his sincerity.
Zhou Yan glanced at him and didn't reach out to answer. Her seductive red lips yelled two words at Li Ba: "Two thousand!"
I'll go! Two thousand kilograms of food coupons, just kidding! Even the gold B inlaid with diamonds is not that expensive!
Li Ba couldn't afford to spend money, so he shook his head and left. Looking at his left back, Zhou Yan spat and said hatefully: "Damn fat man, let me deal with you!" To deal with this kind of stinky man with a stingy man with a worm, she had some means to let the other party give him food coupons obediently. The future is long, so let's see.
Wow~~
The faucet flowed with clear and transparent hot springs, and the room was filled with mist. Li Ba was lying in the bathhouse, soaking in the hot spring water, and his body was so refreshed that he almost hummed.
"Thirty thousand kilograms of food coupons are worth..."
He squinted his eyes, enjoying it, and talking to himself. Although Xibu is a small town, it is a well-known hot spring resort. Before the end of the world, such a villa was worth at least several million. Now it can be handled with 30,000 kilograms of food coupons, and can be paid in installments with interest-free, which is extremely cheap.
Thinking of the food coupons, Li Ba began to think about it. He earned 2,000 kilograms of grain coupons for selling melons. In addition to paying 600 kilograms to enter the city, he used 70 kilograms for bribery, 1,000 kilograms for buying a house, 50 kilograms for eating, 100 kilograms for food, 50 kilograms for buying clothes and haircuts, and now only 130 kilograms of grain coupons are left on his body.
"The money is not spent!"
He sighed in his heart. He began to plan how to make money. Continuing to sell melons will definitely bring great rewards. However, the mutated fruit is unusual, and the expression and tone of the second lieutenant of the Armed Police Officer in the morning can be confirmed. It is barely reasonable to sell it once or twice. If it is sold for a long time, it will inevitably be suspected. At that time, a big disaster will come!
This road doesn't work.
Use bracelet space to grow food. This is the only shortcut to get rid of poverty and become rich nowadays. But there is also a problem. The bracelet space is full of magic. After ordinary melon seeds are sprinkled, they mature overnight and will mutate and become mutated melons. If you plant food, it is difficult to ensure that the same situation will not happen.
Before he has insufficient self-protection ability, growing a large amount of mutated fruits or mutated food is not good for Li Ba. The most urgent task is that he needs to use the bracelet space to plant ordinary grain crops.
After thinking about it, Li Ba decided to go to the streets after taking a shower to see if he could buy some grain seeds. Only by getting the seeds first, then experimenting in the bracelet space to strive to cultivate crops with fast growth cycles and no mutation.
Making up his mind, he came out of the hot spring pool, dried himself, put on his clothes, and prepared to go out.
On the street, Li Ba looked back at the bees who were following him, holding the corner of his clothes with his little hands, looking helpless. The little girl was too dependent on him, and even when she entered the city, she still kept moving. She originally planned to visit the street girl, but the plan failed, which made Li Ba extremely depressed.
With this follower, I have no hope of having fun!
"I'm a normal man too!"
He looked at the girls dressed up on the street and shouted silently.
When he went out, Li Ba asked the coquettish boss lady. In the south of the city, there was a large farmers' market. Before the doomsday, he mainly sold vegetables, fruits and melons and hair, and after the doomsday, he became a market for survivors to trade items and exchange them for any other market.
Xibu Town is not big, and after only fifteen minutes of walking, Li Ba and Nei'er came to the farmers' market. At first glance, there were crowds of people here and bustling. The entire market covers an area of two football fields. When you walk into it, there are shops on all sides, and there are rows of neatly arranged stalls in the middle. A rough estimate is that there are as many as thousands of people buying and selling here. In a crowded place, people next to people, it is very prosperous and lively.
Li Ba took Yuer to start shopping. Starting from the surrounding storefronts, each store operates various supplies, grain, meat, knives, home appliances, building materials, etc. At a knife store, Li Ba even saw guns for sale. The store was publicly hawking at the door, which was simply unimaginable before the end of the world.
Li Ba is very interested in guns, even if the store sells only shotguns. In his words, if one shot is in hand, I have it all in the world. Being a gun family is enough to protect yourself and save your life.
However, when asked about the price, Li Ba was shocked. Shooting rifles are not expensive, only fifty kilograms of food coupons, but bullets are too expensive, and you need five kilograms of food at one shot. You can afford it, but you can't afford it!
He sighed in his heart. Although he was extremely eager to own firearms, he was short of money now, so he should cultivate the suitable grains for planting.
After a walk around, Li Ba found what he wanted in a shop. This shop mainly sells various rice and grains, including rice, wheat, corn, soybeans and other grains, with a complete variety.
Seeing this, Li Ba was happy and told his boss to give him one pound of each. In the Xibu settlement, the grain was divided into three levels. High-quality fine grains, such as rice, wheat, sorghum and several kinds of beans; medium-quality coarse grains include brown rice, corn, sweet potatoes, etc.; the lowest-quality rough grains are the bran noodles eaten by refugee camps outside the city. The grain coupons issued in the settlements are based on coarse grains, and one pound is exchanged for one pound. If used to exchange for refined grains, one pound is exchanged for six pounds. If exchanged for rough grains, one pound is exchanged for five pounds.
The grains selected by Li Ba were basically all refined grains and coarse grains. For each pound, he spent twenty kilograms of grain coupons on a dozen varieties.
worth!
Li Ba was excited when he carried the bag of grain given by his boss. It took no effort to grow grain. Next, it depends on his ability to cultivate grain.
I took Yu'er and walked around for a while. I basically found out the prices of various materials in the market. I also bought a lot of snacks for Yu'er. For the little girl, Li Ba was willing to spend money. When I was about to go home, Li Ba actually found cigarettes for sale at a stall. For the old smoker, I haven't smoked a cigarette for several months, and when I see him, I can't hold my legs immediately.
When he stepped forward, he asked, the price of this cigarette was really expensive, and a pack of five kilograms of grain coupons was required. Li Ba wanted to bargain, but the stall owner was a young man and grinned: "Brother, cigarettes are a luxury in the end of the world. People who can afford it don't care about a few kilograms of grain coupons!"
When Li Ba thought about it, he was also risking his life when he got these cigarettes, and it seemed that it was not necessary to bargain. He gritted his teeth and took out fifty kilograms of grain tickets and bought a whole piece. After getting it, he couldn't wait to open a pack. He took out a lighter from his pocket and lit it, took a deep breath, and the smoke was scattered, and Li Ba's face was filled with enjoyment.
"What's the point of smoking? It's not good for you to choke people to death, but it's not good for your health!"
A bell muttered came from beside him. The little girl looked at Li Ba with disgust, and she already had the smell of a little housewife.
"What do you know!"
Li Ba rubbed the little girl's face, carried the food bag, and called him home.
After a afternoon of traveling, I returned with a full load. When I went back, Li Ba and Yuer took the opportunity to go to the relief station to receive today's relief grain. This is the treatment of the new residents in the settlement, and each person has half a kilogram of coarse grain every day, which lasts for one year. Of course, the wool comes from the sheep. The settlement will not be a loss-making business. The materials paid by the new residents into the city will be almost one kilogram of grain every day. Half of the distribution of the settlement, half of the profit is made, and the abacus is very loud.
When I returned to the hotel, it was already dark. The hotel business was not very good tonight, with only two or three tables. Zhou Yan was sitting at the bar, holding her cheek and thinking, when will she be able to raise enough money?
Her eyes lit up. When she saw Li Bayan coming back, she carried a lot of things in big bags and small bags, she quickly got up to meet them.
"I'm back so late? Wait until you start supper!"
Zhou Yan smiled and took the bag for Yu'er. She quietly took the opportunity to take the bag and saw that it was filled with snacks and a whole cigarette.
"Fatty guy is quite rich!"
Zhou Yan's eyes rolled, and she didn't know what was going on in her mind. She called Li Bayan into the house and asked someone to serve food. In addition to her, Zhou Yan's hotel run by her also had a pair of sisters helpers. The two little girls were not old, her sister Zhang Jie was twenty-one and her sister Zhang Ting was nineteen, and both looked pretty.
During the meal, everyone sat down. Zhou Yan, the belle, the sisters, four women, and Li Ba, the bald fat man, talked and laughed, and looked like a family.
The supper was not rich, two vegetarian dishes and one pot of vegetarian soup. But the rice was enough. Li Baren was tall and had a very good appetite. He ate three big bowls in a while, but he still felt that it was not enough, so he asked his sisters to serve another bowl for him.
"Eat! You fat man, if you continue to eat like this, will you lose money!"
Every time Li Ba ate a bowl, Zhou Yan felt bleeding in her heart. She greeted the 18th generation of the fat man's ancestors in her heart, but she still had a smile on her face and was full of concern. She asked Li Ba to eat slowly and keep her full.
After she said this, Li Ba paid attention to his image and was embarrassed to continue to hold on. After patting his big belly, he was 80% full. He was satisfied and asked his wife to go home.
"Big brother."
As he walked towards the doorstep, the boss's wife shouted from behind him. Li Ba stopped and walked over quickly. Then, while the enemy was not paying attention, he lowered his voice and said: "There will be a performance at 8 o'clock tonight. It is absolutely wonderful. It is not good to watch and you won't charge money."
Zhou Yan pointed to a villa in the middle, threw a 'you know' look at Li Ba, turned around, twisted the water snake's waist and left.
"Show? Damn, what show is this slut singing again!"
Li Ba touched his head, and a hint of curiosity appeared on his face.
