MTL - The Zombies Are Coming But I’m Laying Down At Home-Chapter 76 76th
And chestnut and pine nuts are not the size in the conventional sense, but the enlarged version after mutation.
Pine nuts are the size of a dime coin, and chestnuts are the size of half a mouse.
The quantity of chestnuts and pine nuts flowing into the community was controlled by Cao Bingqing and Fu Chenghong.
A pine nut is worth the same as a pound of whole grains. Coarse grains with strong satiety and high yield such as sweet potatoes and potatoes are objects that can be purchased per pound per pine nut base currency unit.
As for the value of chestnut, it is equivalent to a first-order crystal nucleus, which is also equivalent to 500 pine nuts, which can buy 500 catties of whole grains.
For example, sports students Pan Feizhou, Koi Hexuan, Fengren woman Ye Jia, Cen Xiyang, and Han Zhi all have food and shelter for a month, plus 90 catties of grain and a first-order crystal nucleus as a fixed salary, then Professor Zhao is like this The non-superiority user, but the boss of the technology department, is a guaranteed minimum of 1,000 catties of food a month plus a crystal nucleus as salary.
But Professor Zhao's crystal core is useless, so you can temporarily replace it with a chestnut. When you need it, you can directly use the chestnut to buy the needed materials, or you can exchange the chestnut for the crystal core, and then sell the crystal core to the needy. people in exchange for supplies.
For the pricing of other aspects of clothing, food, housing and transportation, Cao Bingqing and Fu Chenghong made some regulations with reference to the base in D city.
Oil, 5 pine nuts 300ml. Salt, 3 pine nuts 100g.
The cheapest wholesale single clothes before the end of the world brought back by the clothing factory, 2 pine nuts per piece. Warm clothes such as cotton-padded clothes and trousers, 20 pine nuts each.
As for the quilts, each staff dormitory has the necessary thick quilts and thin blankets covered in spring and autumn. The finances of the butterfly garden are not the personal property of the employees. If employees need it, especially if the external employees from the base in D city want to buy it, a 10-pound thick quilt is 40 pine nuts per piece, and a thinner quilt is cheaper, 10-30. You can do whatever you want when you buy it.
These prices are not cheap, but based on the wages offered by the butterfly garden to the employees, excluding room and board, one month guarantees that 60 catties of grain can be saved, which is the rhythm of 60 pine nuts. The prices given above are what everyone needs. Affordable anytime.
Especially for necessities like salt, buy 100g and save it, you can eat it for a while, which is completely enough.
Fu Erdie looked at the plan given by her parents and felt that it was generally reasonable. In fact, she might have to adjust it according to the specific situation.
But isn't it normal for prices to be adjusted? Fu Erdie rubbed his parents' shoulders and said "hard work".
"Is it possible to make a currency with a middle value? For example, pine nuts are equivalent to one dollar, and chestnuts are equivalent to five hundred dollars. Is it necessary to get a currency of 10 yuan, or 100 yuan?"
Cao Bingqing thought it made sense, so he added almonds worth ten yuan.
As for the 100 yuan chestnut, it is not much different from the 500 yuan chestnut, so there is no other trouble.
In order to make the currency appear more professional and more textured, Fu Erdie deliberately did three days of push and pull with the intelligent mutant plants of pine nuts, almonds and chestnuts, and carried out targeted transformations in the energy space of the plants, allowing them to produce The shell of the nut that comes out is more shiny and textured, and it is not easy to break. With the anti-counterfeiting logo in the butterfly style, the whole nut becomes bright and delicate, just like the Ping An fruit that is often sold in scenic spots and processed like a stone, round and beautiful.
Once the currency system was launched, it was well received by the core floor on the 16th floor.
Professor Zhao took the lead and replaced his food stamps and the useless crystal cores with chestnuts and pine nuts.
Out of her trust in Erdie, she was not worried that pine nuts and chestnuts would lose their value and become a piece of waste paper... No, waste nuts.
Because the pine nuts look good, Cen Xiyang made a string of bracelets with rope, and brought them fresh on his hands every day.
Seeing this, Han Zhi also pestered Cen Xiyang to make a string.
After going back and forth, other people on the 16th floor also made various decorations out of pine nuts.
The unconscious behavior of the core layer affects ordinary migrant workers.
Especially the external employees of the technical department who have been working for the longest time, they immediately discovered the pine nuts that their bosses often play with, and knew this "currency" strategy.
One pass ten, ten pass one hundred, all employees know that 1 pine nut is equal to 1 catty of whole grains, and pine nuts can be used to buy various items.
The outsiders have worked part-time for nearly half a year, and the salary plus the bonus after completing the task every month, on average, each person has three or four hundred catties of grain in his hand.
Although there are relatives at the base in City D, the relatives' food intake will be estimated every month and a lot of food will be shipped back. But more food is still piled up in the dormitory and it is almost too much to pile up.
It is impossible to send all these grains back to relatives, because relatives sleep in Datong, and they are even more difficult to store grain than them.
So these people are also worried and don't know what to do with the food.
Okay now, the grain can be replaced with pine nuts, which is easier to store and can be exchanged for other necessities of life. When the work here is completed and you have to go back, you can use these pine nuts for grain, and then transport them back together, and then let the base help to see how to unify Save and exchange, wouldn't it be nice.
As for whether your food will be hacked?
If you want to be black, you don't have to turn around so deliberately to be black. After a group of people have finished their work, they will be over if they rob the food. Can these ordinary people, who have nothing, still resist?
Outsiders were quick to accept the currency.
The newly arrived employees selected from the refugees have not been accepted for the time being. After all, what you get is the real thing. They don't have the shelter of the base, and it would be better to have everything in their hands.
Fu Erdie knew that he didn't care about these situations. After all, the currency is circulated internally, which is convenient for Professor Zhao, Mom and Dad. It doesn't really matter what the others are.
In this way, the base has undergone various changes silently.
New rules and orders are being established.
Although many abilities outsiders do not know the innocuous things like currency for the time being, they are still passing on the name of Butterfly Gardener.
However, these rumors are only spread among the top officials of the base or a few ability users who fight alone. Ordinary people, such as the civilian areas of the Anshi base, know nothing about it.
In a grass hut, a disgraced young woman was learning from an older woman next to her that her "boyfriend" took food for whoring/prostitutes.
The young woman's face was numb, and her originally healthy wheat-colored skin had become thin and inactive in the last year.
The older women were not much better, and said in a hoarse voice: "I really hope that one day, they will die under the belly of a woman and never come out again."
The two are none other than Zhao Xiaolu, who escaped on the first day of the apocalypse, and the owner of the hardware store where she was hiding.
They are ordinary people, they have no awakening ability, and they have not been bitten and mutated. Even their resistance to mutated water sources is the strongest among all people.
At least better than their respective boyfriends.
They are lucky. They are unfortunate again.
Because without supernatural powers, he is destined to live in the most embarrassing way.
On the day of the apocalypse, Zhao Xiaolu first hid in the hardware store, and then, together with the owner of the hardware store, packed as much food, water, defense weapons, car repair tools, etc. into two backpacks as possible, and found an opportunity to leave the hardware store and bypass the circle of zombies. I came to the side of a car, and took advantage of the poor eyesight of the zombies at night, and flew away.
They were not doing well after they left. First, various roads were blocked, and then the chassis of the car was scratched by the expansion joints of the bumpy road.
When changing cars, most of the supplies were snatched away, and barely half were left to continue running to the deep mountains and forests.
They guarded the last grain and wanted to rely on farming to survive for a long time.
But farming is not easy. Land pollution, pests and diseases, high temperature, torrential rain... any one of them is the murderer of land production reduction.
Soon, the acres of land they reclaimed were all dead.
The broadcast has been intermittent and there is no electricity, and at a desperate moment, the information of the Anshi base is received.
Zhao Xiaolu and the hardware store owner Qin Huai resolutely gave up these acres of land and decided to defect to the base, using the last gasoline and a little bit of wild vegetable roots to fill their stomachs, and barely came to Anshi before fainting from hunger.
However, like the refugees outside the base in City D, they were stopped outside the city.
—An city cannot support so many people.
They have nothing, and if they can't enter the city, they can only wait to die outside the city.
The two repeatedly emphasized that they had technology in them.
Hardware store owners can weld and unclog pipes and repair various uncomplicated parts of cars and bicycles. In order to enter the city, she had to describe herself as a proficient expert and own a store of her own.
Zhao Xiaolu's job is to do comprehensive hardware and software development. Although in the company it is only a small R&D staff under the hands of a big boss, there is indeed technology.
As a result, the two boasted about their skills and pleaded for mercy, and finally got an interview opportunity.
The interviewer also knows that there are a lot of people who put money on their faces exaggeratedly in order to enter the city, but after the test, the two people do have technical jobs that they can do, so they let them in.
The two have skills, at most they are distinguished from ordinary refugees without skills. They do not have a separate residence. They still sleep in Datongpu at night, only the water and food are relatively clean.
There are men and women in Datong, and there are all kinds of psychopaths.
Two of the plumbers belonged to the dual psychophysiology who were suppressed in the last days, and the base did not care about some dirty things that had nothing to do with human life. These two people regarded the women in the Chase shop as objects that they could hunt. , from time to time will take advantage of the fact that some women are singled out to make people stronger.
Qin Huai and Zhao Xiaolu became targets, and a violent conflict broke out.
2 vs 2, height and physical strength are not dominant, only by attacking and using weapons to fight to the death can you protect yourself.
They poked the plumber blind in the eye and angered a group of the plumber's male colleagues who were watching the play.
If it weren't for the fact that the floor management happened to arrive and forcibly suppressed this violent incident that almost killed people, Zhao Xiaolu and the others would surely die.
After this incident, Zhao Xiaolu knew that they had to find a backer, which is now her and Qin Huai's "boyfriend", two ordinary people with power-related abilities who could manage ordinary people.
With two little boss boyfriends, they won't be chased by the plumbers anymore. But the food they earn from work needs to be squandered on their boyfriends, and even the so-called boyfriends go to prostitutes.
