Chapter 451 The bloody case caused by a wild horse (1)
Under such a difficult situation, Hu Biao chose to call the big liar here, of course, thinking that he would let this guy use his expertise to deceive people.
No! You should go and get active and try your best to get some food for everyone.
After greeting the big liar, he sat down on the half-laid brick.
Hu Biao even asked for help and took the initiative to pour him a cup of boiling water boiled from the clean snow outside the workshop.
As a result, when the big liar saw this posture, he immediately became a little panicked.
The main reason is that after such time, he has long known that Hu Biao is such a picky guy, and he is definitely a person who is always attentive to nothing, and is either a traitor or a thief.
This is happening all of a sudden, this posture looks a bit scary.
He was so fooled by Hu Biao that he lost his ability.
While he didn't dare to take the hot water from Hu Biao, he stammered: "Old Hu, if you have something to do, just give me direct instructions. Don't be so polite."
Seeing the big liar's request, Hu Biao also fulfilled his request.
After taking back the cup, he began to drink the hot water in small sips, and said with a look of anticipation:
"In the past few days, you kid doesn't have to participate in the battle; as long as you find a way to get food to keep everyone full, it will be your biggest contribution to the team. I will remember your contribution when the time comes.
In order to achieve such a goal, you can tell us what kind of support and supplies you need, as long as they are what our team has."
It's a pity that in the face of Hu Biao's expectations, he still expressed his position.
After hearing this, he suddenly had an expression of pain in his teeth.
Shengsheng chewed up a match in his mouth and said hesitantly: "I recently walked around the factory when I had free time, chatting with the workers, and I heard about such a thing.
Someone in the factory has some connections, and you can exchange a watch for a loaf of black bread from them; by the way! If you exchange it for a gold ring, the price seems to be about the same."
After hearing this, Hu Biao suddenly became ecstatic.
Just kidding! You know, if you save a little on food, one piece of Maozi's bread can last 10 men forever. The portion is really not small.
As for watches and other gadgets, in addition to being worn on the hands of all team members, they also serve as a bit of arm protection.
In his space ring, there are now more than 200 pieces of antique watches of various brands he knows and unknown.
Although Hu Biao actually knows one thing, such antique watches in excellent condition from the 1930s and 1940s can be worth a lot of money in modern times.
Even if we dispose of it at a cheaper price, we can probably buy a truckload of bread and still have enough leftover.
Taking it out in exchange for a loaf of bread now is obviously a bad deal.
But at this moment, if Hu Biao had to choose between a piece of bread and a watch, he would choose the former without hesitation.
People who have never been hungry will never understand such a choice.
Based on the huge feeling of hunger in his stomach, after thinking about it for a while, Hu Biao said directly:
"The price of a watch in exchange for a loaf of bread is a bit expensive, but who knows, everyone is so hungry now.
In this way, you go to exchange for 200 loaves of bread and come back. After you finish eating, you can decide whether you want to exchange it or not. This matter will be decided at that time..."
******
What! Regarding the reason why Mao was beaten into such a state in the current Volgograd, there are still people who have extra food to sell, and there are also ways to do it.
Hu Biao didn't want to delve into it, and he didn't bother to care about the origin of these foods.
In a word, he only needs to be able to keep himself and his men well-fed so as to maintain the necessary combat effectiveness.
As for the team's poor financial situation, what can we say? This thing is like some legendary object, there is still some squeeze.
It's a pity that Hu Biao was just thinking about whether to take out 10 or 15 of the 200 loaves of bread every day to give everyone extra meals and fill their stomachs.
In the blink of an eye, the big liar gave out the good news; he said another statement that made Hu Biao's heart go cold:
"What good thing are you thinking about? Now a person who can take out ten or eight loaves of black bread at a time can be regarded as a rich man in Volgograd.
In exchange for two hundred loaves of bread at once, did you cut the leeks?
How is this possible? I heard that those people only had a dozen loaves of bread in their hands.
By the way! I heard that they also sell horse sausages there, but not only are they made from dead horses that were killed in battle, but the processed food is also a bit expensive.
A piece of horse sausage, which weighs about 3 pounds, costs a watch, but it is still meat after all. Do you want to exchange some for it?"
After hearing such a statement, Hu Biao suddenly felt a strong urge to scold his mother.
Not only because he reluctantly planned to consume 200 watches, which is a large number of watches, which is a fortune worth tens of millions at least.
The result? I still can’t get enough food.
What's more, a watch can be exchanged for a black-hearted price of a piece of horse sausage. The problem is that even though he knows that such a price is extremely black-hearted, he can only bite the bullet and exchange it.
But thinking about having his head pressed to drink water made him extremely depressed.
And just when Hu Biao was about to find a remote corner and put out most of the watches in the sack, so as not to scare other people in this world.
Suddenly, the walkie-talkie that he had been hanging on his right shoulder began to make a rustling sound.
Then came the broken gong. Such an old comrade, who was relatively calm in the face of trouble, actually had a slightly distorted voice after being extremely excited:
"Lao Hu, Lao Hu, did you hear that? I have an emergency here."
If Hu Biao remembered correctly, Poluo and Su Hong should have been taken to hide in a ruins half a kilometer away during the day.
Responsible for monitoring the area of the glass factory and the German camp.
Such an approach can give the Central Continent team a little more time to prepare for battle and enter the defenses in a timely manner.
Therefore, under the excited voice of Po Luo, Hu Biao immediately thought that the German army might have dispatched a terrifying force and was about to launch a large-scale attack.
Suddenly, Hu Biao no longer cared about being fooled into exchanging his watch for black bread and horse sausage.
Immediately on the walkie-talkie, he asked:
"How many troops, tanks, armored vehicles, and assault guns did the opponent dispatch this time? What is the scale of the fire support of assault guns, mortars, and so on?"
However, after Poluo listened and was confused for a while, he said:
"What is the strength and scale of the troops? Old Hu, aren't you confused by hunger? The German army has just been beaten back this time. How could it be possible for them to regroup so quickly?
Lao Hu, I found a very fat wild horse. That guy is such a big lump of meat. It weighs over a thousand kilograms at least. Please bring someone over here quickly, otherwise we will go to the German stick. What happened?
It will be a big trouble."
Under such a statement, Hu Biao's head went blank at that time.
If there must be something, it is just a simple thought that keeps spinning in my head: No one can touch our horse, otherwise I will kill him.
