Give the universe a little earth shock

Chapter 7 Change
Ludao eight cities.

Before the advent of the Era, Bashi was a well-known vegetable market, and one of the must-see places for foreign tourists.

Under the double blow of the economic downturn and the coming of the warning monument, people nowadays can no longer have much interest in playing, and this place has instead become a place for second-hand goods to be exchanged.

The entrance of Bashi is facing the asphalt road, and in the middle of the road is a thick viaduct pier covered with vines.

"The last time you came here was when you graduated from college, right?"

Fast forward 8 years, when I was young, the eight-pack abs became one, and the two people who walked together became one.

Climb over the guardrail and enter the long and narrow alley, with all kinds of parts and raw materials piled up on both sides. The shopkeepers sat on the ground, staring blankly at their booths under the flickering street lights.

"How much is this four-stroke engine?"

Li Kaiyang saw an engine full of oil. Judging from the scratched and blurred number plate, it was an old foreign product, and there might be something he wanted inside.

"Three Baidu battery, or ten catties of pork, if you want, I can give you a thousand dollars."

The current electricity priority guarantees industrial production. Every household has a quota on the smart meter, and the electricity is cut off when the time comes. All house and car tickets are not as convincing as electric tickets in this era.

The U.S. dollar is even worse. The currency has been issued for more than 100 years, and it has encountered a global game of chess. The U.S. dollar, which is not qualified to anchor oil anymore, is too hard to even wipe its ass.

Li Kaiyang didn't have many electric bills, but his father raised dozens of wild boars in his hometown in northern Fujian, so it seemed that he suddenly became the second generation of pigs.

What an absurd age.

"Where did this thing come from?"

Li Kaiyang wiped off the oil on the nameplate with his sleeve, revealing a string of English, to the effect that it is for the army.

"It was replaced by the Wuyi mining base. Lao Mei sent hundreds of construction vehicles, and they were reimbursed after half a year of use. They even broke my hand."

Hearing this, Li Kaiyang noticed that the stall owner's sleeve was empty, like a fire hose laid out on the ground.

"It's fine if you don't do it," the stall owner scratched his chin, scratching his fingernails and beard stubble, "Those mechanical gadgets are always on strike, and they have to rush to do it by themselves when the task is overwhelmed, and they are so tired that they can urinate blood. "

"Is the Wuyi base equipped with an exoskeleton?"

Li Kaiyang used the stall owner's tool bag to remove the casing of the engine, and spoke.

"Oh, you mean that thing that looks like a robot. It's equipped, but it's useless. It can lift up to two or three hundred catties at most. Even a thing of two or three hundred catties is considered light in the base."

"How about it? Do you want this engine? If you really buy it from me, it will be cheaper for you. My son is also at the base. I want to take advantage of his return in the next few days and make pork dumplings for him to replenish his health."

Li Kaiyang didn't find the miniature shaft he wanted in the engine. He shook his head and quietly left the booth without looking at the disappointed look in the stall owner's eyes.

"Struggling days will always change."

He beat himself up.

After going through the black market from beginning to end, Li Kaiyang still didn't find the miniature shaft he needed. Could it be that he can only request it?

Handing in the passive exoskeleton can also complete the task, but he always wants to do better, so as not to have a lump in his heart.

He is a person who is afraid of trouble, and he never wants to do things twice that can be done once.

But for now it seems that's the only way to go.

"Little brother, what you need is indeed too biased."

In the largest repair shop on the black market, the boss huddled on a white cloth and wiped dust on the parts in his hand.

The left half of the store is a wall of hardware accessories, and the right half is a wall of books. Two very different styles of painting are strangely integrated in the store.

"Boss, why are you still selling books?"

Li Kaiyang looked at the wall of books. Apart from professional books, there are also many novels and comics, many of which are old books from a century ago, enduring for a long time.

"If the economy is going down, you have to do some side jobs, right?"

The shopkeeper in his forties lowered his head, looked at the tall and thin young man through the gap in his glasses, and teased.

"There's still this one!"

Li Kaiyang's fingertips brushed across a faded spine. The name on it surprised him. This comic was the only regret when he was a child. After reading half a book, he was snatched away by Xiaopang in the class, and he never got it back. Pass.

"A fifty-dollar electric bill, no credit."

The boss focused on polishing the parts under the light, and shouted without looking back.

Just when Li Kaiyang was about to pull out the book, another slender finger rested on the spine of the book, grabbing the book out before him, the two hands pinched on the spine one by one, neither of them agreed. put.

"Li Kaiyang?"

The elegant and fair girl with an oval face frowned and asked tentatively.

Li Kaiyang looked down at his badge, only to realize that he forgot to take it off. He secretly added some strength with his fingers holding the spine of the book, dragged the comic book towards him, and said, "Why? You know me?"

Chen Xing'an noticed the other party's small movements, and her brows tightened even more. This guy's rambunctious aura almost instantly dispelled her remaining good feelings, "I saw this book first."

She clamped her middle and index fingers, and pulled the book to her chest.

When Li Kaiyang went to look for Mr. Wu, he didn't meet Chen Xing'an head-on. The two just passed by. He was always face-blind and couldn't remember who this person was. That ability hammered himself down with a single shot.

He had to do something in the black market by himself, otherwise he would be too unhappy tonight.

"51 copies, no credit."

The boss yelled again, and Chen Xing'an, who received the order, took out his book and ran to the counter, and reached into his satchel with his other free hand to take out money, "You don't need to look for a hundred."

She slapped the money on the table without any doubt, and the miniature shaft sealed in a transparent bag also fell to the ground.

"You have this!" Taking advantage of her distraction, Li Kaiyang pulled out the book and held it tightly to his chest, "I want this, and I can exchange it with you for the book."

"Give that book to you, I don't want it!"

Chen Xing'an gritted his teeth, and gave the book to this slovenly man. What a joke, for such an important thing as a miniature shaft, he wanted to replace it with a broken book. Anyway, there are so many books here, so why hang a tree.

"Oh well."

Li Kaiyang responded dully, opened the book and began to read, "When the earth traveled to the surface of the moon, he found a girl with rabbit ears."

"The disc shot by the magic gun drew a hexagram array in the open space, the dazzling light pierced the sky, and a huge head slowly emerged from the star array"

"enough!"

Chen Xing'an slapped the comic book, and threw the miniature scroll on the table, "It's a bet, if you win, I'll give you this thing, and if I win, give me the comic book!"

Li Kaiyang closed the book, grinning to the sky, "Okay, but I will choose the game."
