“Pfft,”
Huang Yunxiang couldn't help but laugh, speaking as if they had nothing to sell.
“Captain Xing, you really don't need to worry about that, just come to us if you want to buy supplies,”
Lin Tianhui also said with a smile.
“Yes, Captain Xing, no matter how many Crystal Cores, we'll exchange them for you,”
Su Xiangzhe added, patting Xing Taining on the shoulder.
But Su Jin noticed the information in what Xing Taining just said–D city was experiencing a famine, a bowl of porridge for 500 Crystal Cores, many people had Crystal Cores but nowhere to spend them, and many didn't even bother to extract Crystal Cores after killing zombies?
“Exchange any amount for us? Even tens of thousands of Crystal Cores?”
Xing Taining couldn't help but ask.
Mao Zhihang had finished seeing off the customers and came over; after hearing part of the conversation, he glanced outside.
It was time to close the shop, and the last few customers had already left, so he outright waved his hand and used his Special Ability to close the shop door.
If there was really a deal involving tens of thousands of Crystal Cores, it would be better to talk with the doors closed!
Su Jin looked at Mao Zhihang appreciatively; this matter indeed shouldn't be overheard by others. She walked over to Xing Taining and said, “Captain Xing, if you can roughly state how many Crystal Cores worth of supplies you want to buy, let us know.”
Xing Taining saw that no one appeared to be bluffing and suppressed his surprise, answering, “Where did you get so many supplies from?”
“Captain Xing, we go out to look for supplies every day, including trips to other cities, and we ran a grain and oil market before the Apocalypse, so we just have a bit more stock,”
Lu Hao explained.
Xing Taining didn't actually suspect anything, just felt somewhat shocked; he knew these people meant it when they said they had supplies, or else they wouldn't be running a shop in the base.
“Wenbin, take out all our Crystal Cores,”
Xing Taining said. If these useless Crystal Cores for them could be exchanged for supplies, then their past half year's hardships hadn't been in vain.
Su Jin felt that the Xing brothers, Xing Taian and Xing Taining, truly were like brothers who came to deliver Crystal Cores to her, that Space Element Ability User actually took out more than a dozen boxes of Crystal Cores from his Space!
Hisss~
The entire family gasped in amazement, so many?
And Xing Taining looked somewhat embarrassed as he said, “I don't know how there could be so many, if it's possible, we can buy less, the main issue is these Ordinary Crystal Cores are of little use to us, we can't even buy food with them in D city.”
“There's nowhere to buy things in D city?”
Su Jin couldn't help but ask.
“The resources are all monopolized by the higher-ups, it's extremely difficult for the common people to buy supplies, so relatively speaking, Crystal Cores have become quite useless,”
Xing Taining explained; they left because they saw no hope.
In the end, knowing that Xing Taining and his group planned to stay in the base for a while, waiting for their companions to recover before making further plans, Su Jin only exchanged two thousand Crystal Cores' worth of supplies for them.
“Here in the base, things like renting a house require Crystal Cores. Captain Xing, you'd better settle down first, and after you've discussed the number of Crystal Cores you want to exchange, come find me,”
Su Jin said. It was getting late, and these people had been tired from traveling for days and still needed to find a place to stay; it wasn't suitable to continue counting Crystal Cores here.
“Alright, alright, as long as you agree to sell to us, everything will be easy to talk about,”
Xing Taining was very pleased; for just 2000 Crystal Cores, they had exchanged for so many supplies.
Li Wenbin was also excitedly packing the supplies they had just bought into his Space. Such a huge amount of items would probably sell for an exorbitant price in D city, coming here was truly the right decision!
“There's one more thing, Captain Xing, this matter should not be spread,”
Lu Hao said to Xing Taining, believing he would understand.
Xing Taining nodded his head, acknowledging that possessing a treasure can be a crime. He still wanted to do more business with Su Jin and the others in the future, so he definitely wouldn't cause them more trouble.
Considering that they still had to go to the housing management center to rent a house, Xing Taining decided to say goodbye to the family for now; they also needed to settle down and then count their Crystal Cores.

…
That evening, in the Wood Spirit Space, Su Jin discussed the matter and her ideas with everyone.
There was just one month left until the blizzard, which would last a long time and leave everyone without income, so they might as well earn some more Crystal Cores before the storm hit.
“Xiao Jin means that we should go to City D to sell supplies?”
Lu Hao asked.
Su Jin nodded and said, “Not just City D, if we encounter other bases along the way, we can sell there too.”
And after selling, they would leave immediately, which would not only avoid suspicion but also allow them to move on to the next location to sell.
“I think that's a good idea. Didn't Xing Taining say that they passed through many places similar to City D on their way? We could collect a wave of Crystal Cores,”
Su Xiangzhe agreed.
“Hmm, that's feasible, but…”
Lu Guanhai trailed off, looking at Su Jin, Lu Hao, and the others before smiling.
However, he wanted to go with them as well.
Su Jin didn't expect that her whole family would support her idea, but Lu Hao still felt it was somewhat unsafe.
According to Su Jin, Base City S would attract people from all over the country to settle down, and with the current strength of the Heart Talk Team, it was inevitable that they could be recognized, which would cause trouble.
“Do you expect us to cover our faces? Become masked people?”
Lin Xiuyuan propped up his chin and muttered. He also thought Su Jin's idea was good, and they might make a fortune.
Lu Hao's words made everyone fall into deep thought, but Nie Qing suddenly remembered something. He rushed to the Pill Room. When he had been studying pills in the space, there was one kind of pill, what was it called again?
That's right, this one!
The Face-changing Pill!
Nie Qing ran out excitedly with a bottle of pills and an ancient book, shouting to everyone, “We have this, we can use the Face-changing Pill!”
The Face-changing Pill?
Su Jin really didn't know that there were such pills in the Pill Room, and she wondered what effect they might have.
“The book says that one Face-changing Pill can randomly change a person's appearance for three days, and if the effect wears off, just take another pill to maintain it,”
Nie Qing read from the book as everyone flipped through it with him. Lin Cheng and the others were curious and looked on, but they completely didn't recognize those ancient characters.
“There's such a great thing?”
Su Jin was also shocked. A pill that could change a person's appearance for three days?!
“Hehe, let me try it first,”
Nie Qing said as he popped a pill into his mouth. The pills from the Pill Room were all painstakingly developed by the ancients of the Lu Family, so he wasn't worried about any side effects.
Su Jin didn't have time to stop him before she saw Nie Qing swallow the pill.
After a short moment, an unfamiliar face appeared before everyone.
“Who are you?”
Lu Guanhai felt it was like fantasy. Was this simple and blockish face really Nie Qing?
“Hehehe, do I look more handsome?”
The sound of Nie Qing's voice had hardly faded when Su Jin summoned a mirror with her thoughts and handed it to Nie Qing.
Nie Qing looked excitedly at the mirror: “…”
Whose fool's face is this, hey?!
