Wasteland scavenging, fat girl takes the sick and disabled family away

Chapter 330 Trading a Thousand Pounds of Books for Panax Notoginseng Powder

Gong Chen looked with difficulty at the plastic bag that the little mute boy had brought over.

The Panax notoginseng powder, which smelled of medicinal herbs, was packaged in a plastic bag.

The little mute was treating Panax notoginseng powder, which could save lives and stop bleeding in the wasteland, with a very casual attitude.

If Gong Chen hadn't chosen to believe Shi Yuebai, he would have seriously suspected that Shi Yuebai had given him something to pass off as something else.

But then, Gong Chen was shocked by the sheer amount of Panax notoginseng powder inside the plastic bag.

This large bag of Panax notoginseng powder looks to weigh several dozen kilograms.

It looks a bit like flour.

However, Gong Chen knew that it wasn't the flour from before the wasteland.

One of the team members following behind Gong Chen seemed to have something to say.

But he looked at Gong Chen.

Gong Chen didn't voice any doubts, and he didn't say anything either.

After receiving the large plastic bag of Panax notoginseng powder, Gong Chen had his men carry over several hundred kilograms of maternal and infant supplies.

Shi Yuebai glanced at it casually and saw that this batch of maternity and baby products included baby cradles and baby strollers.

Baby strollers of all sizes are available.

There were even a few children's cots among them.

It's the kind of children's bed that looks really cartoonish, like the ones from before the wasteland.

"I don't know if you need these daily necessities. I saw that you collected a lot of babies from the camp a while ago."

Gong Chen asked very cautiously, but in fact, his team did not lack living supplies.

They simply don't need many of the daily necessities.

So even if they found some while scavenging, they just threw it away.

Shi Yuebai nodded and asked Shi Yaoyao to come and move this batch of maternity and baby supplies back to the camp.

Go through the teleportation array in the center of the camp to return to the same location.

Seeing that Shi Yuebai accepted this batch of worthless "garbage".

The survivors who were secretly observing nearby couldn't help but let out a gurgling laugh.

They exchanged a glance discreetly where Shi Yuebai and Gong Chen couldn't see them.

It's said that the intelligence of modern humans has been reduced by several levels due to the radiation damage in the wasteland.

This idea is perfectly embodied in Shi Yuebai.

The survivors in the wasteland are still living in a survival environment where they "collect babies for food".

Naturally, they didn't believe that the mercenary group, having adopted so many babies, would actually have such a plan to raise one or two hundred babies.

They preferred to believe that the mercenary group was feeding one or two hundred babies.

I don't believe the mercenary group has the capability to support one or two hundred babies.

Therefore, it seems very pretentious for Shi Yuebai to exchange the extremely precious Panax notoginseng powder for these hundreds of kilograms of maternal and infant products.

It's as if the mercenary group deliberately instructed Shi Yuebai to do this; they were clearly a cannibalistic group, but they insisted on pretending to be noble.

In a wasteland where reputation is not a concern at all, it's strange that someone would insist on caring about their reputation.

What's with this "never give up" nonsense?!

These are all bad habits left over from the garrisons before the wasteland was destroyed.

They clearly lack the ability, yet they still try to put on a show.

Shi Yuebai's expressionless face and his carefree attitude made him seem foolish to the survivors around him.

Is this guy just a fool who got tricked by a mercenary group?

"In a few days, we should be able to see the baby corpses being sent out of the camp, right?" "Maybe they won't be sent out at all; wouldn't it be easier to just eat them on the spot?"

People whispered among themselves, and only when Gong Chen was about to leave with his men did someone approach Shi Yuebai tentatively and ask,
"They traded baby products for Panax notoginseng powder, could we trade some of our daily necessities for some too?"

"I've just found over a thousand pounds of books here, do you want them?"

Some of the survivors wore malicious smiles.

He really did find a bookstore in the ruins, and the books there weighed more than a thousand pounds.

But he first took out a thousand catties of books to test whether Shi Yuebai was so stupid that there was no cure.

As expected, Shi Yuebai nodded, still maintaining his aloof and expressionless demeanor.

"Okay, we can still exchange ten kilograms of daily necessities for one kilogram of Panax notoginseng powder."

Her words caused an uproar among the survivors.

What kind of fool in this world would agree to exchange ten pounds of books for one pound of life-saving medicine powder?

If it weren't for children like Shi Yaoyao helping Shi Yuebai weigh himself...

Could they even deceive this clueless fat woman about weight?
Shi Yuebai took two steps back and shrugged.
"Don't rush to make a fuss, let's see if you can actually produce a thousand pounds of books first."

Gong Chen, who had been standing nearby, returned. He frowned and said to Shi Yuebai,
"Didn't you realize they were scamming you about your Panax notoginseng powder?"

From Gong Chen's perspective, dealing with a fool like Shi Yuebai is far better than dealing directly with a mercenary group.

Gong Chen appeared more at ease.

Because Yi Zhe is not a fool.

Among the many leaders, Yi Zhe is capable, intelligent, and particularly difficult to talk to.

Therefore, Gong Chen did not want Shi Yuebai to make a mistake.

If Shi Yuebai really takes the Panax notoginseng powder to exchange for this thousand catties of books.

Yi Zhe would probably be so angry that he would immediately return from the danger zone and cancel Shi Yuebai's channel.

In Gong Chen and the Black Monkey's eyes, Shi Yuebai's current identity is similar to that of a mercenary group's sales channel.

There were such powerful groups before, who were unwilling to get involved in these trivial matters.

They'll then bring out a lot of representatives to help them handle these trivial matters.

This suggests that the mercenary group obtained a large amount of Osmanthus Charms and Panax notoginseng powder from somewhere.

But even if Yi Zhe had a large quantity of Osmanthus Charms and Panax Notoginseng Powder, he couldn't stand Shi Yuebai's foolish sales channels.

Shi Yuebai waved his hand, "You don't know the value of these thousand catties of books."

"I know what I'm doing, you go ahead with your work."

From the survivor, Shi Yuebai learned that the thousand catties of books he wanted to exchange for Panax notoginseng powder with Shi Yuebai were made of paper.

Although several USB drives containing a large number of e-books were found in the hideout earlier.

These e-books were printed out, bound into volumes, and placed in the underground shopping mall library.

However, it is undeniable that Yuebai was getting to know this wasteland better and better.

The more you discover that this world before the wasteland was a very rich place, both in terms of life and spirit.

There are many books, but the electronic versions cannot be found on those USB drives.

Shi Yuebai believed that the e-books stored on those USB drives were only a small part of the vast crystallization of the mind.

So when someone offered to exchange a thousand catties of paper books for Shi Yuebai's Panax notoginseng powder.

In reality, Shi Yue got something for nothing.

This thousand-pound book is more valuable than Gong Chen's baby products, as well as the black monkey's pots, pans, stoves, and so on.

On the contrary, Shi Yuebai only contributed 100 jin of Panax notoginseng powder.

Who's the fool here?
