True Hope (3)

Ruan Ning said: “It is a can of doomsday meat with a shelf life of 30 years.”

Wu Dawei almost fainted again.

He picked up the can and couldn’t let it go, his eyes shining.

“This thing is good.”

Wu Dawei smiled and asked, “How did you get it?”

Ruan Ning said: “Not only did I get it, but the expedition team also got it. They will probably be back tomorrow, and by then, this thing will appear in large quantities in the base.”

Wu Dawei: “How many are they?”

Ruan Ning raised her eyebrows: “How can I know how much they have? Anyway, they will definitely have this thing by then, so it won’t be particularly eye-catching if you sell it.”

Wu Dawei gave a thumbs up: “You are very thoughtful.”

Ruan Ning smiled and said, “There are 3,500 cans here in total. The quantity should be okay. After all, there are not many people in the base who can consume this.”

Wu Dawei said ‘yes’ repeatedly: “What price do you want?”

Ruan Ning: “When the time comes, you can decide based on the market. I don’t care what price you sell it at.”

“But I just accept gold.”

Wu Dawei rolled his eyes and said, “Did you get any news that the doomsday is coming to an end?”

Ruan Ning shook her head: “Absolutely not. We need gold for the transaction.”

Wu Dawei thought that the other partner asked for gold: “So that’s it.”

Ruan Ning actually wanted the antiques more, but this transaction would be sensitive and she might be targeted by the base.

This was not outside.

She didn’t need anything else, so she simply accepted gold as a second-best choice. Anyway, these cans were free. She took them out just to add icing on the cake and clean up the warehouse at the same time.

Compared with the three cargo ships with a carrying capacity of at least 500,000 tons, her canned food was just a drop in the ocean.

Moreover, there should be other ships in the base. After all, Jiang Fuhai once revealed that they took 100 tons of coal out for trading.

She didn’t want the coal, and the base wouldn’t be stupid enough to bring it back.

The two of them chatted about some details.

Ruan Ning said, “I will be away for a while. I will come to collect the payment in about half a month. You can make your own arrangements for the rest, Brother Wu.”

Wu Dawei was curious: “Are you going to move out of New Hope Base?”

Ruan Ning said casually, “It’s not us. I’m the only one who moved in. They’ve been outside the whole time. It’s too restrictive here.”

Wu Dawei didn’t doubt it.

The scavenger teams are usually outside. They have goods and strength, and generally, they will not enter the base except to gather information.

After saying goodbye to Wu Dawei, Ruan Ning returned to District 55 to light a bonfire and boil water.

In order not to arouse suspicion from the people around them, Zhou Sulan and Ruan Cifeng still went out to move bricks today.

Although the two elders are in good physical condition now, Ruan Ning is still a little worried.

She also wanted to get to Tomorrow Base early to do some finishing touches.

As she was thinking with her eyes down, cheers suddenly broke out outside the base.

Soon, people around ran outside to watch the excitement.

Ruan Ning guessed that the expedition team returned earlier than she expected. It seemed that they did not sleep at night and had been on the road all the time.

Over at the gate of the base, the cheers were getting louder and louder. One could hear various groups of people shouting and expressing their love, and their voices didn’t sound like they had been hungry for half a month at all.

It was strange to sit alone, so Ruan Ning simply followed the crowd and walked out, watching the long team coming back from outside.

There were probably more than 20,000 people carrying luggage.

There were also military vehicles.

The scene was extremely spectacular.

The atmosphere was festive, and people were very excited. Many people cheered with tears in their eyes, saying that they were saved.

If no one stopped them, they would probably have run up to hug and kiss the expedition team.

In such a scene, Ruan Ning also smiled.

Not long after, Cheng Jili and the others arrived. She stood on tiptoe, looking for her brother, her eyes full of anticipation.
