Zombie Apocalypse: Reborn With A Farming Space-Chapter 309: Exchange ( 3 )
Chapter 309: Exchange ( 3 )
When Jiao Lizhi saw the children, she felt pity for them, but she had no intention of helping them for free.
Five minutes later, she entered the cellar and checked the grains. Besides rice, there were potatoes, corn, sweet potatoes, and some dried vegetables.
While the quality of these grains was far worse compared to those grown in her space, it was far better than the food she had eaten in her previous life.
After a while, Jin Xuyan asked, "Ah Zhi, how is it?"
Jiao Lizhi looked at her fiancé and nodded. Then, she turned to the middle-aged man and said, "I can give you 200 crystal cores, five boxes of instant noodles, ten boxes of biscuits, five bottles of medicine, twenty packs of sanitary pads, and fifty gallons of water."
When the middle-aged man heard this, he frowned and said, "Comrade, the total amount of my grains is at least 2,500 kilograms. How can it be exchanged for so few supplies?"
Hearing his questioning tone, Jiao Lizhi didn’t get offended and explained, "Comrade, you might not know the situation outside. Crystal cores are hard to come by. Even after killing fifty zombies, you might not get one or two crystals."
"What’s more, medicine is very rare and expensive now. It’s not like before when you could buy a bottle of medicine for several yuan. Now, you can exchange a pill of fever medicine for several packs of biscuits."
After a moment of pause, she added, "One box of instant noodles has 40 packs, that’s 200 packs. A box of biscuits has 30 packs, totaling 300 packs of biscuits, with each pack having 20 biscuits."
"A bottle of medicine has 100 pills; that’s 500 pills total. As for sanitary pads, they are easier to find, as not many people need them now, so I didn’t give you too many."
"How about the water? Fifty gallons won’t be enough for my family," the man said.
As a water-type ability-user, Jiao Lizhi could feel the energy emitting from the middle-aged man, which was similar to hers.
She pointed at the man’s fingers and said, "As a water-type ability-user, you don’t need too much water. As long as you create water every time you recover your energy, your family won’t lack water."
When they heard this, everyone turned to the middle-aged man with surprise. The man frowned and asked, "Comrade, how can you be so sure I have water-type ability?"
Opening her palm, Jiao Lizhi smiled and replied, "Because I can recognize the similar energy coming from you."
When the man saw a ball of water floating on her palm, he clenched his fists.
"Besides that, you keep wiping your hands on your clothes. I can see that you are not used to your ability yet, so your palms are constantly covered with water," Jiao Lizhi said as she pointed at the wet ground.
The man looked at her and asked, "Can you tell me how to control the energy?"
"Focus your mind and try to feel the energy inside your body. Use your mind to control it and focus it on your fingertips. When you have enough energy, you can try to compress the water ball to increase its hardness," she explained.
Crack!
As soon as she finished her words, she pointed her finger toward the wall, and the next moment, a water ball the size of a red bean shot toward it, leaving a deep hole in the wall.
Jiao Lizhi flicked her fingers. The water ball flew back to her before stopping in front of the man and floating mid-air.
Seeing this, the man was shocked. He looked at the water ball in surprise and delight. He clenched his fists as he finally found a way to protect his family. After realizing the power of a water-type ability, he no longer felt as helpless as before.
After a while, the man calmed down and said, "I will exchange the grains with you."
"Good," Jiao Lizhi nodded, and with a wave of her hand, she collected everything into her space.
The man and his family were stunned by this scene.
Before they could ask, she took out the supplies they had agreed on from her space. Besides the supplies, she also gave them several blades made by the Wen brothers.
They often made blades from extra metal after their fights against zombies, which were stored in her space.
After they finished the exchange, the Phantom team members left the underground cellar and returned to the two-story house.
While the Phantom team was having dinner, the villagers who were hiding in the underground cellars saw Dalang and his family talking to the strangers. Even though they were curious, no one was foolish enough to come out at night and be exposed to danger.
Under this situation, the night passed peacefully.
Early the next morning, the Phantom team had already finished their breakfast before sunrise. At seven o’clock, Qin Luzi suddenly said, "Captain, there is a group of people heading in our direction."
Hearing this, Jin Xuyan nodded and said, "Don’t bother with them. Pack up and prepare to leave."
"Understood."
With his order, the members no longer thought about the survivors and focused on packing their belongings. When they came out of the house, the villagers had already arrived.
Seeing them, one of the villagers took a step forward and said, "Comrade, I heard that Dalang’s family exchanged their food with you. Can we exchange our food too?"
Hearing this, Jiao Lizhi asked, "Did they tell you?"
After hesitating for a moment, the villager shook his head and replied, "Actually, we saw you yesterday."
Jiao Lizhi observed them and noticed that most of them were men, with several women and children. There were only five elderly people in total. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
She thought for a moment before she asked, "After exchanging your food, do you plan to leave?"
The villagers nodded, and a woman said, "Brother Dalang’s wife told us about the base in Lin’an. We also want to go there and try our luck. It’s better than staying here and waiting for death."
