Chapter 171: The Miserable World
After leaving the wooden house where Yang Kai and the others lived, Chen Fei carried ten packs of instant noodles and walked swaggering on the narrow dirt path. On both sides were stall owners who looked greedy when they saw the instant noodles in Chen Fei's hands.
After walking a few steps, Chen Fei met Chu Bangguo who was waiting outside.
"Brother Chen, you may be in big trouble this time!" Chu Bangguo sighed and explained in a worried tone.
Chen Fei's eyes had been passing by the stalls on both sides, so he answered in a very casual tone:
"It's okay. The soldiers will come and cover up the water and earth. If the worst happens, I'll just apply oil on my soles and escape from the safe area!"
On the contrary, shouldn't you keep a certain distance from me? To prevent you from suffering an unfounded disaster."
Chu Bangguo also didn't know whether Chen Fei was a bold person with a master's skills, or a fearless person with no knowledge. Since his client looked like he didn't care, as a bystander, there was no need for him to worry about this matter, so he
Just let everything develop naturally.
In the trading market, the most valuable thing is always food. Just two packs of instant noodles can be exchanged for a limited edition diamond watch worth millions. This is a situation that Chen Fei would never have imagined even in his dreams.
However, Chen Fei was not interested in any of these things. He used two packs of instant noodles for twelve blankets. This was just a cover for him to take out other things from the storage space on his way back.
As they continued to go deeper into the market, Chen Fei and Chu Bangguo came deeper into the trading market. Compared with the places they had just walked through, there were almost no stalls here, but the tents were denser.
And most of the prefabricated houses in the entire trading area are also here.
"Huh? Brother Chu, why is it so deserted here?" Chen Fei turned around and asked curiously.
"Forehead......"
Chu Bangguo's expression was a little awkward. Of course he knew where this place was. He had come here before when he still had some food in his hand to satisfy his needs and relieve his pent-up mood.
Chu Bangguo did not answer, but soon the women who came out of the tents on both sides helped Chen Fei answer all his doubts.
Without those cosmetics and skin care products, these women's appearance is at least half off, but they try their best to dress themselves up more, such as wearing a flower on their head, which can be found in the safety zone.
Wildflowers, soak their petals in water to wash your hair to add some fragrance.
Chen Fei felt that if he took out a set of cosmetics on the street, these women would probably pounce on him without any scruples. It is still a woman's nature to love beauty at all times.
Every material in his storage space plays a very important role for specific people and special situations!
"Little handsome boy, you can have a sister with just a pack of instant noodles!"
"Little handsome boy, you look so handsome. How about you give me a pack of instant noodles for my sister to stay with you for two more days?"
"Little handsome boy, as long as you give me five bursts of instant noodles, my sister will follow you from now on!"
"..."
After the bolder women saw the instant noodles in Chen Fei's hand, they directly thought that Chen Fei was the second generation from the inner area who came to have fun, and rushed forward to strike up a conversation with Chen Fei.
The more reserved woman, on the other hand, lowered her head in front of her tent, holding up a piece of cardboard with a clearly marked price in her hand, such as instant noodles, biscuits, steamed buns, any food.
When these women first came to the safe zone, they all wanted to get food with their own hands and live with dignity.
However, many of the jobs in building safe zones are gender-neutral, and they have to work more than twelve hours a day in order to make progress in construction. Not to mention ordinary women, even men with weaker physiques cannot withstand such high intensity.
work.
Some women who are already working at the lowest level of society are better off and can barely hold on, while some women with delicate bodies and accustomed to a life of pampering cannot even hold on for half a day of work.
So after three days of starvation, these women were forced to take this detour in order to survive. Most of them were brought to the trading area by people like Yang Kai, who were half intimidated and half lured.
These women's faces were either sallow or pale. In order to survive, they could only abandon their propriety, justice and shame, just hoping that this kind of life could come to an end as soon as possible.
Although Chen Fei felt that these women were pitiful, he did not have the strength to give them sympathy. The current world is like this. In order to survive, most people are forced to do what they least like or even hate.
Not only did he do the things he did, but he also did them well. This is exactly what the saying goes: People will always live like the kind of person they hate the most!
Chen Fei did not take advantage of the opportunity like the men who usually come here, but just walked past the women with a smile.
Just as he was about to walk out with Chu Bangguo, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Chen Fei.
"Oh? Boss! Don't worry! Are you not attracted to the girl here?
That’s right! This proves that you have vision!
Come... you come with me! I have the best here, absolutely the best!"
Chen Fei frowned and looked at the wretched man who suddenly appeared in front of him. The man's figure can be described as skinny, and his face was like a skeleton. His eye sockets were sunken, with thick black circles under his eyes, and his rickets
The body looks like a little old man.
The man stared at Chen Fei with longing in his eyes. He obviously regarded Chen Fei as a big customer and tried his best to make a business deal.
Chen Fei could have used brute force to pull back his arm. With the man's appearance, which is no different from that of a skeleton soldier, he is probably not as good as a woman who has no strength to restrain a chicken.
However, Chen Fei was a little curious about what kind of medicine this wretched-looking man was selling in the gourd.
"lead the way!"
Chen Fei withdrew his arm and said two words in a low voice. The man didn't care and instead smiled and led the way for Chen Fei and Chu Bangguo.
The man was obviously familiar with this place, and he quickly took Chen Fei and Chu Bangguo out of the trading market.
Chu Bangguo took the place of Chen Fei and held the blankets he had exchanged for instant noodles. Seeing that Chen Fei seemed to be following him, Chu Bangguo couldn't help but walked to Chen Fei's side and whispered:
"Brother Chen, be careful and beware of scams!"
Chen Fei nodded, reassured Chu Bangguo with his eyes, and then continued to follow the man.
"Boss, don't worry, we'll be there soon, we'll be there soon! It's in the woods ahead!"
The man seemed to be afraid that Chen Fei would leave impatiently, so he tried his best to stabilize Chen Fei.
After the three of them entered the uncut pine forest, they saw a woman holding a three- or four-year-old boy standing there in the open space.
The man and woman were wearing a somewhat shabby floral dress. The hem of the skirt had been damaged in many places because it had been worn for too long. However, despite this, the skirt still tried its best to keep it clean.
When Chen Fei and the others came, the woman seemed to be talking to the little boy. The little boy's eyes were red, but he was extremely sensible and did not cry.
When she heard the footsteps, the woman quickly turned her head and looked this way.
When they saw the woman's face, Chen Fei and Chu Bangguo were both slightly startled. Although the woman in front of them had no makeup and her cheeks were a little thin, people had to admit that this woman was really good.
The one above is a beautiful woman. At first glance, she looks like a gentle woman who is a good wife and mother.
However, when the man leading the way saw the woman comforting the little boy, he angrily ran to the woman's side and pulled the woman's body to stagger with his thin body.
"Yu Xiao! Damn you loser, I won't let you put up the tent quickly, okay? I'm bringing the boss back now, and you're not ready yet. I think you're just looking for a fight! Believe it or not, I'm here
I’ll beat you to death!”
There was obvious anger on the woman's soft face, and her somewhat rough hands covered the little boy's ears and asked coldly:
"Zhou Hang, you are still not a man! You actually asked your own wife to do this? Just to get you something to eat!"
The man was contradicted by the woman, and he slapped the woman on the face out of anger:
"What the hell, don't forget who brought you out of that little ravine. I didn't miss a penny of the betrothal gift for marrying you. You are my woman, and you must do whatever I ask you to do!"
Just be content, look at how young and handsome the boss I brought you is, if not because you are my wife, I would have brought him back for you even if he was a bad old man!"
The woman's face was slightly pale. In the past, she could endure many of the man's evil deeds for the sake of her children, but now the man's behavior has touched her bottom line!
"Zhou Hang, you can get food if you have hands and feet to work, can't you be like a man?"
"Man? Can I still be considered a man now?
Yu Xiao! You bitch, stop pretending to be noble. I haven't been able to touch you for two years. In fact, you have been unbearably lonely for a long time, right? Now is the perfect time! You can get nourishment and earn some food.
