Stocking up in space: surviving in a world of crisis

Chapter 299 Chapter 299 Lan Province 1
"Is that beard going to die?"

Jiang Rong shook the cat teasing stick in his hand, "Should be dead already."

Ye Fu sat across from him, "How will he die?"

"The meridians are broken, and the seven orifices bleed."

Jiang Rong suddenly stretched out his hand to grab Ye Fu, "I seem to smell some ore."

Ye Fu shrugged his nose, "What smell? Why can't I smell it?"

"It should be a coal mine, not far from here, do you want to dig it?"

People in Yuquan County burned coal mines, Ye Fu thought of those people, and shook his head, "No, the beard is dead, without this blood-sucking worm, life for those people should be easier."

Walking out of Yuquan County, there are endless mountains. Wan Tao said that after walking out of the mountains, you will enter Lanzhou Province.

There should be many people living in the mountain. They saw thick smoke coming out of it, and when they got closer, they even heard the crowing of a rooster.

Entering the forest, the sun was blocked by the trees, the snow in the forest began to melt, and the ice cubes on the branches fell from time to time and hit the carriage.

There are many wooden houses in the forest, and many people live here. Seeing the sudden appearance of the team, they are very nervous and scared.

Jiang Rong commanded the mammoth to speed up, and everyone didn't plan to stay in the forest to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Some creeks in the mountains have started to flow after thawing. Everyone is very excited to see such clean and clear water.

"Fill some water. The water looks very clean. There are residues in the snow, and it needs to be filtered every time."

The livestock were drinking water in the watershed below. Everyone took out the bottles and buckets and started watering. Qi Yuan took a sip and his teeth almost froze.

"Hiss, it's too cold."

The trees on both sides of the creek are very thick. This mountain range is a virgin forest, and there are moss on some stones.

Worrying that it would be a desert after entering Lanzhou, everyone cut down some branches and wood. Ye Fu picked up a lot of rotten wood in the mountains. This kind of wood can grow mushrooms and be directly stored in the space.

After the water was filled, the team continued to set off, and the people who came to inquire about the news saw them leave and ran back home immediately.

"How about it?"

"They left, filled some water, and cut some branches and wood."

The people in the family breathed a sigh of relief, "It seems that they are not bandits, that's enough, the crisis is over."

-

"I don't know what's going on with Yin Dongnan. This guy, let him go to the northern border with us. He is unwilling to live or die. If he meets a group of robbers, it will be over."

At night, when everyone was sitting around the fire, Fang Ming was a little worried about Yin Dongnan, so he couldn't help but mention a few words.

"Didn't you give him two knives? He is smart and nothing will happen."

Fang Ming nodded, "I hope, anyway, I will not dare to go on the road alone, and his compass is broken, this person is really stubborn."

"There is no way. Those who want to go home will go home even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire in front of them."

The mountains are very long, and it took several days to walk out. There is a boundary marker in front of it, which is the intersection line between Lanzhou and Mongolia. After passing the boundary marker, you can enter Lanzhou.

"There seem to be a lot of people living there too. Look, there are many wooden houses and thick smoke."

The land in Lanzhou is yellow, and the endless yellow land feels barren and desolate under the sun, but the rows of small wooden houses not far away add vitality and hope to this land.

As Wan Tao said, if you leave Mongolia, you will meet more survivors.

Survivors who migrated from all over the country settled here and took root.

When they came to the boundary marker, it was covered with a thin layer of snow, Wan Tao shoveled it off, looked at the word Lan Sheng, and everyone laughed.

After crossing thousands of kilometers and experiencing countless dangers and difficulties, they finally came to the Great Northwest.

In front of the small wooden house in the distance, some goats were kept in captivity at the door, and some people came back on horseback with prey in their hands.

"It's better than I imagined. At least, the land here is complete." Wan Tao couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"Hey, who are you? Why are you here?" A young man rode over and looked at everyone in surprise.

"We escaped from Jiang Province and are going to northern Xinjiang. Are you an aborigine here?" Wan Tao walked over to talk to him. The man looked at everyone, and finally his eyes rested on the mammoth.

"I'm an aborigine, and you guys came from Jiang Province? So it must have been a year or so?"

Wan Tao nodded, "Isn't that right? The weather is bad. I can only walk [-] to [-] kilometers a day, and I often encounter heavy rains. The roads are not easy to walk. These wooden houses are lived by aborigines or immigrants from other provinces. ?”

The man jumped off his horse, with a crossbow and quiver tied to his back.

"There are migrants and aboriginals. Do you want to settle in our village?"

Wan Tao smiled, "We still have to go to northern Xinjiang to find our family."

The man suddenly shook his head, "I heard that Northern Xinjiang is still colder than Lan Province. In the past two years, many people have fled to Northern Xinjiang. The population there should have been saturated."

"Little brother, it seems that you know a lot of things. Can you tell me? We are all going to northern Xinjiang. If the population is saturated, will you drive us away?"

The man waved his hand, "I don't know, but my brother went there to do business before, and now he can exchange supplies. He said that there are several bases in northern Xinjiang and southern Xinjiang. If you want to enter the base and be blessed, you need to pay Things, you have so many things, I am afraid you have to hand them in."

After hearing these words, everyone's expressions were not very good.

"By the way, if you go to northern Xinjiang and want to stay there, you have to do voluntary labor and dig coal."

Ye Fu took a few steps forward, "Brother, what exactly do you mean by doing business?"

The man smiled, and didn't intend to go into details, Ye Fu took out a lighter from his pocket and gave it to him, the man lit it, the fire was so powerful that his eyes lit up immediately.

"Anything can be sold, firewood, coal, prey, fur, clothes, herbs... Generally, it is an exchange of goods, and now even people can be exchanged. A catty of rice and flour can buy a child."

After the man finished speaking, Ye Fu looked at the two mammoths and suddenly had an idea.

"Is there no limit to doing business?"

The man shook his head, "To enter the jurisdiction area, you need to pay supplies, but now there are patrols in both Xinjiang and Lanzhou provinces, and it is safe to enter and exit. You can't fight at will. There are prisons in both provinces. Depending on the level of crime, Sentences are also different, for minor crimes you will be given compulsory labor, for serious crimes you will be sentenced to death.”

The man glanced at everyone, "My family has a hotel, do you want to stay?"

"How to charge?"

The man grinned, "It's very cheap, but it's not for food. If you live for more than three days and there are so many people, I'll charge you a sheep."
