Ruan Ning and the others first came to the official market and found that there were not many people inside and not many types of goods. However, occasionally there were two or three people exchanging supplies for contribution points.
Ruan Ning also came to exchange contribution points.
She walked to the window and looked at the noticeboard first.
One piece of compressed biscuit can be exchanged for 100 contribution points.
One catty of potatoes can be exchanged for 120 contribution points.
Other miscellaneous items are collected, even scrap steel, scrap iron, scrap copper, and also waterproof items.
Ruan Ning thought about it and went out for a walk with her parents again. When she came back, she had two bundles of colorful plastic sheets, some scrap metal, and old clothes in her arms.
Among them, the waterproof colored plastic sheet was the most expensive. After the staff counted them, they gave them 65 contribution points.
Holding the official ‘banknotes’, Ruan Cifeng was curious: “I wonder how much these can be exchanged for.”
Ruan Ning said indifferently: “It doesn’t matter. I will take things directly from my space later. Isn’t it okay to say that I bought them?”
Ruan Cifeng: “That’s fine.”
The three of them first came to the old market at District 14, which was crowded with people, just like the market before the end of the world.
There were a lot of merchants, but the stalls were full of materials collected from all over the place, such as old clothes, old furniture, and pots and pans, all of which were practical.
Ruan Ning and the others walked around and found that no one was buying or selling food.
There was nothing to see in these things. They just helped to find out the prices. The three people were about to go to District 26 to have a look when suddenly someone came up to greet Ruan Ning.
Ruan Ning’s face lit up: “Brother Wu.”
Wu Dawei was also surprised. He didn’t expect that he could meet Ruan Ning again.
He was excited and asked, “You guys are here at New Hope too? When did you come?”
Ruan Ning said: “Just these two days.”
Compared to their meeting in Xihai City, Wu Dawei seemed to have experienced more hardships.
Ruan Ning thought about it, told her parents to go shopping first, and went to talk to Wu Dawei.
After Ruan Cifeng and the others left, Ruan Ning quickly asked Wu Dawei, “Brother Wu, weren’t you in Xihai City? When did you come back?”
“I came back when it was extremely hot.”
Wu Dawei said: “Thank you for your reminder. After thinking about it, we decided to stay in our old place. Otherwise, according to the current situation, everything will probably be destroyed in the tsunami.”
Ruan Ning smiled: “That’s your own decision. It has nothing to do with me.”
Wu Dawei: “Thank you again, Sister, you are really my lucky star.”
Ruan Ning asked, “Are you still doing business now?”
“I still do it occasionally, but there are too few items that can be circulated now. You can see that the market is full of these things, and I can’t make a profit as a middleman at all.”
“Besides, I could do business with rich people before, but where are the rich people now? Even if a few of them still have compressed biscuits in their hands, they won’t take them out easily.”
Ruan Ning pretended to look at Wu Dawei: “I don’t know about other people’s situation, but I see that you haven’t lost weight, Brother Wu. The things you brought back from the beach must have earned you a pension, right?”
Wu Dawei chuckled: “It’s okay. I’m lucky not to starve to death.”
At this point, he lowered his voice and said, “Sister, I remember you said you knew Jiang Fuhai, right?”
Ruan Ning blinked: “Not really an acquaintance. My boss dealt with him a long time ago.”
Wu Dawei: “Then do you know where Jiang Fuhai is now?”
Ruan Ning was stunned.
That’s right, when the two air-raid shelter camps merged, Ruan Ning had never met Jiang Fuhai.
At that time, she thought that Jiang Fuhai had moved out. After all, the conditions in the air-raid shelter were poor, and Jiang Sishui would find it difficult to adapt.
Wasn’t it?
Judging from Wu Dawei’s tone, there was something else going on here.
Ruan Ning shook her head and said, “How would I know where a big shot like him is? Do you have any news to share with me?”
Wu Dawei: “It’s not sharing. It’s just gossip. I heard some big gossip a few days ago, and it’s now being spread secretly.”
