Chapter 1147 The Amnesiac Black Panther and His Poor Little Beauty (28)

The Amnesiac Black Panther and His Poor Little Beauty (Twenty-Eight)

In the end, the cart was sold for three cakes a day, and both parties were satisfied with the price.

Wang Kang also breathed a sigh of relief. He was worried that Leopard and the others would be unhappy that he brought people over without prior notice. However, things are different now than before. It's really inconvenient to contact someone without a phone or something. He had no choice but to accept the offer.

They agreed that the cornbread would be delivered back with a cart when Wang Kang came to dig the cellar. Song Ning and Han Shuang even inquired about where the cornbread came from.

Han Shuang didn't hide this from him. "I earned it by working. There's a medium-sized base about the same distance away in the opposite direction from yours. It's well-managed there. I heard there are even planting experts there. They've always used cornbread to exchange for it."

Is there another base not far away?

Song Ning couldn't quite describe how he felt after hearing those words, but when he looked down and saw the big cat looking at him with worry, he realized that none of it really mattered.

Even if he knew back then, so what? There's nothing wrong with him living with Big Cat now.

However, Song Ning also received a bonus message from Han Shuang: "If you have any extra items, there's a basketball court next to the base on the middle of each month. A lot of people will go there to exchange things, it's like a big market, you can go and check it out."

Han Shuang also hinted that honeycomb briquettes are in high demand during this weather, and can be exchanged for food or other items.

Song Ning was somewhat tempted upon hearing this. Even if she didn't know what to exchange it for yet, going to take a look wouldn't be a bad idea.

"Oh, but," Han Shuang gave a friendly reminder before leaving, "if your Leopard Lord wants to come along, you'd better go to the base there and register beforehand. They're quite easy to talk to there. There are a few others like you who are in similar situations. Anyway, once you register, you can bring him along. Otherwise, he might be kicked out."

Song Ning could understand that. Not to mention others, wasn't he also startled when he first saw the big cat?

"Brother Leopard, are you going?"

After asking, Song Ning smiled sheepishly and climbed onto the kang with Da Mao, leaning against his firm muscles. "Actually, although I asked this, I wanted you to come with me. I'm a little scared."

It would be a lie to say he wasn't worried. Although Han Shuang and Wang Kang seemed to be kind and reliable people, Song Ning had met many unscrupulous individuals over the years since the apocalypse.

The transaction itself may not be a problem, but whether one can return safely after the transaction is completed is the real issue.

He would feel much more at ease if the big cat could accompany him on the trip.

A tail flicked lightly across the back of his hand, and Song Ning immediately chuckled and hugged the real big shot in front of him. "Thanks, Brother Leopard. It's settled then. Han Shuang said there are still seven days until the middle of the month, so I'll think about what to bring to exchange before then."

Han Shuang was clearly a trustworthy person, and Wang Kang brought the stroller back on time on the third day.

Besides the materials, the trolley also had a fairly large tarpaulin sheet on it.

Wang Kang unloaded the items as he spoke.

"Han Shuang asked me to ask you about this. She said it was extra from her harvest this time, and she asked me to bring it over to ask if you wanted it. If you did, she wanted to exchange it for some coal."

This time he wasn't as cautious, mainly because he realized that both Song Ning and Black Panther were easy to talk to, at least not the kind of unreasonable people.

Roofing felt?

Song Ning became interested upon hearing this, "Let me take a look at the goods first."

When Wang Kang helped him unfold the tarpaulin, Song Ning was overjoyed.

The large piece of tarpaulin looked to be of good quality. He tried it on and found that it was just the right size to cover the pile of coal. Without hesitation, Song Ning immediately took the tarpaulin off the table.

Wang Kang was also a little happy to see that he really wanted it. Han Shuang said that if Song Ning and the others really took the things, she would give him five honeycomb briquettes as a delivery fee.

This is quite a lot, so of course he was happy to accept it.

Song Ning was quite happy to have changed to tarpaulin. Although the hut was small, their belongings were gradually increasing, and many of them were actually useful.

He is now extremely grateful to Big Cat for leading him to this pile of coal, which now seems like hard currency.

However, Song Ning also knew in his heart that every bit of this coal he used was precious, and he should cherish something that others found useful and that he himself found useful.

"I wonder how that base Han Shuang mentioned manages to keep corn growing. If it can produce anything, then we'll have another source of hard currency."

Cornbread can be traded, and of course, other foods can be traded as well.

Song Ning sighed again after thinking for a moment, "Forget about those unrealistic things for now, let's get the cellar set up first and store some ice."

What he actually wanted was an ice cellar, so he asked Wang Kang to make the cellar bigger. Wang Kang didn't suspect anything and even came up with an excuse for him.

"Brother Song, what do you need such a big cellar for? Oh right, I almost forgot about Leopard's share. We humans don't eat as much as Leopard, so we need to make it this big."

Once the two determined the size of the cellar, Wang Kang began construction.

Song Ning did not go out as usual, but watched Wang Kang's construction while chatting with him. Perhaps because they had traded twice, Wang Kang had let his guard down and Song Ning managed to get a lot of information out of him.

For example, the base that Han Shuang mentioned is indeed quite good. There are many people in this area who are doing well outside even if they haven't joined the base because of its existence.

"However, those who can survive outside must at least have some real skills, and they must be able to kill zombies, otherwise it's all for nothing."

Song Ning agreed with this point. Being able to deal with zombies doesn't mean you can live alone outside. Obtaining food, water, and other necessities is very important.

He thought for a moment, then asked again.

"So this base doesn't force anyone to join?"

Wang Kang shook his head, "It's been like this for many years. They've always been that if you're willing to come, there's plenty of work for you to do and you can stay. If you don't want to come, they don't force you."

Song Ningqi asked, "Since things are pretty good over there, why didn't you guys consider living at the base?"

This is what he can't understand the most. This base sounds pretty good, with human touch and supplies, so why do people still choose to wander outside?

No matter how you look at it, struggling outside is probably much harder than going to the base.
