Chapter 688: Chapter 676: End of the World Dimension 64
Seeing the piles of food before them, those who came were struck dumb, even asking others to pinch them to make sure it was real.
Only when they felt the pain from the pinch did they snap back to reality.
Some people’s eyes changed, becoming somewhat greedy.
"You better not think of anything untoward. This is G City, remember who brought you here." Yan Mo noted and reminded them.
Hearing his words, those who had ideas recalled that this was not an ordinary place, it was a Zombie Camp, with a horde of zombies outside.
"Each base has to select a person to check whether everything inside is genuine. You have five minutes, then you must leave and decide how much you want to buy." Lin Jingyang heard Yan Mo’s voice and knew people were up to no good. His expression turned unpleasant and he spoke rudely to them.
The representatives from the eight bases discussed briefly, then selected individuals to go and check.
Five minutes later, eight people came out to give a nod to their respective group.
Lin Jingyang led them out of the warehouse and over to a pavilion on the left. He pointed at the sign hanging outside.
"These are the prices, non-negotiable." Lin Jingyang finished speaking and sat down inside the pavilion with Yan Mo.
The individuals from the eight bases looked at the prices on the sign. One apple for a low-level crystal core, a pound each for rice, wheat, sweet potato, corn, and potato, and half a pound each for cabbage, cucumber, pumpkin, and chili.
An intermediate-level crystal core could buy five pounds each of rice, wheat, corn, sweet potato, and potato, three pounds each of cabbage, cucumber, pumpkin, and chili, and five apples.
The price for high-level was three times that of intermediate-level.
Looking at the prices, they thought it was very affordable and decided to buy.
But they were forced to come here by Qi Ran, and they didn’t bring many crystal cores. In total, they could only afford a thousand pounds of rice.
"They are humans, shouldn’t they help us too? Zombies can’t eat this food." One of them said. If their base had this much food, everyone could be well-fed.
"Yes, we could fool that kid into giving us extra food. Kids at his age are easiest to trick." Another one chimed in.
"If you want to die, don’t drag us down with you. The one who brought us here is the Zombie King. Do you think our base could withstand the anger of the Zombie King? Or do you think you can leave here with all this food?" One of the men who went to inspect the food sneered and poured cold water on their plans.
So naïve. Were they blind or just stupid? Even if the Zombie King hadn’t come today, there was another man with him who looked just as dangerous.
Hearing his words, the others who still held out some hope sobered up.
"Our priority now is to finish buying the food, rush back, and then bring more crystal cores to trade." Noticing they had sobered up, the man continued.
They then took their group and walked up to the window of the pavilion.
"I need a hundred pounds of rice, a hundred pounds of wheat, two hundred pounds of corn, three hundred pounds of potatoes, a hundred pounds of sweet potato, ten pounds each of cucumber, pumpkin, and cabbage, forty apples. These are nine hundred low-level crystal cores." Li Hai finished speaking and handed the crystal cores they had brought to Lin Jingyang at the window.
"Okay, let me register that." Lin Jingyang immediately noted it down, looking at the bag for the crystal cores, intending to count them.
"It’s nine hundred." Yan Mo assured him from behind.
"Okay." Lin Jingyang trusted him and turned to Li Hai, "You can rest for a while, then choose two people to bring your vehicle here. The food will be loaded directly onto it. But if you have a Superpower User with a space-related skill, you can load it directly into the space as well. Once they have registered, I’ll lead you to get the food." Lin Jingyang told them.
"Alright" Li Hai nodded.
Seeing Li Hai finishing the registration so quickly, the leaders of the other seven bases also lined up to register and hand over their crystal cores.
One of the representatives saw that Lin Jingyang didn’t even bother to count the crystal cores and thought he was naïve. He claimed to have more than he actually did and secretly kept some cores for himself before handing over the bag of cores.
"There are two hundred cores short, unmatching the list of goods he asked for. This man is dishonest. If he’s the one who will be trading from this base in the future, you won’t need to do business with them anymore." Yan Mo told Lin Jingyang.
Having heard Yan Mo’s words, Lin Jingyang changed the number in his registration notes.
"Don’t bother coming next time, we don’t trade with the dishonest." Lin Jingyang said sternly to the man in front of him.
Hearing Lin Jingyang’s words, the man’s face froze instantly. He had hoped to gain prestige by bringing back the goods from this expedition, but if he couldn’t come back, how would that work?
"I was wrong, I won’t dare to do it again next time." The man immediately begged for mercy.
"Those with me, follow me to get the food." Lin Jingyang glanced at the man, who obviously wasn’t sincerely apologizing, and lost interest in arguing with him. He picked up his ledger, called the others, and went out of the pavilion with Yan Mo to get the food from the warehouse.
That man originally thought that Lin Jingyang, being young and seemingly inexperienced, would be easy to negotiate with. But to his surprise, Lin Jingyang disregarded his dignity and left immediately.
There were so many people around, and his face turned red as if he had been slapped. Hatred flashed in his eyes. After taking a few deep breaths, he reluctantly led his men to follow.
Qi Ran had placed several High-level Zombies at the warehouse for security and ordered them to follow Lin Jingyang’s orders.
Based on the ledger, Lin Jingyang instructed the High-level Zombies to weigh and deliver the food to the groups of people.
It took an hour to hand over the food they had bought.
"You can go now. You can spread the word to other bases. Anyone who wants food can come here and buy from us, as long as they offer crystal cores or other useful items in exchange." Lin Jingyang said to them.
"Will the zombies here attack us?" Li Hai asked.
"Zombies within G City won’t attack you unless you provoke them first." Lin Jingyang replied.
"Alright, we’ll definitely spread the word to other bases." Li Hai nodded in agreement.
"You can get a 20% discount next time you come." Having received Yan Mo’s note, Lin Jingyang told Li Hai.
"Really? I’ll definitely come. I don’t want to starve anymore." Li Hai was surprised. With a 20% discount, he would be able to buy a lot more food.
"Young man, do we get the same deal?" People from the other bases heard the news and quickly asked.
"No, it’s getting late. If you don’t leave now, you’ll have to spend the night on the mountain." Lin Jingyang shook his head, reminding them.
Hearing Lin Jingyang’s words, they felt disappointed. They wanted to say something, but the thought of spending the night on the mountain quickly extinguished any lingering hopes. It’s too dangerous to spend a night on the mountain nowadays.
