Chapter 161 Doomsday World 13
Chapter 161 Doomsday World 13
Although the system mission has been completed and there is little time left before returning to the original world, Lin Xiaoqian and the others have not left this world. This is not only because they have not yet collected all the plants, animals and minerals in this world, but more importantly, they want to wait for Mo Ying to return.
In fact, Lin Xiaoqian's photo book version of "Classic of Mountains and Seas" could not be completed in just a few days, after all, the world is too big.
But she informed several bases that they would be leaving for a while in a couple of days, and that they could continue collecting plants, animals, and minerals, and that she would come back to continue exchanging them.
The leaders of the several bases were not surprised to hear that Lin Xiaoqian was leaving.
However, he instructed his subordinates to hurry up and try to exchange for as many useful supplies as possible.
In particular, Tomorrow Base has a large number of people and moves around a lot. Several of the faster ones ran far away in order to exchange for more supplies and collect plants and animals they had never collected before, even running into other people's territories. Naturally, this attracted the attention of another large base.
Lin Xiaoqian blinked at the middle-aged woman with a strong, official air standing next to Shen Yimin.
Shen Yimin appeared very respectful to the middle-aged woman and politely introduced her to Lin Xiaoqian: "This is Ms. Su Ying, the person in charge of the Morning Light Base."
Su Ying looked at Lin Xiaoqian with a hint of inquiry in her eyes, but her actions were still very enthusiastic.
"Hello, Ms. Lin."
Shen Yimin explained, "The Dawn Base where Ms. Su Ying is located is one of the human survival bases of an officially supported organization, with a population of around 300,000. It is one of the five largest bases in the country."
Lin Xiaoqian nodded slightly: "Hello, Ms. Su, please have a seat inside."
The three of them entered the house together and took their seats as host and guest.
Su Ying spoke first: "Ms. Lin, thank you for being willing to exchange your supplies. It is a blessing for humanity to have people like you."
Lin Xiaoqian nodded slightly and replied with a smile, "Ms. Su Ying, you flatter me. I was just doing what I could."
Su Ying nodded, her eyes showing appreciation: "Ms. Lin is right. I am here on behalf of the Dawn Base to exchange supplies."
"Sure, I believe Mr. Shen has already explained the specifics of the exchange to you."
“Xiao Shen did tell me, but…” Su Ying hesitated for a moment, then made up her mind and said, “I would like to ask if Ms. Lin has any weapons.”
He then explained, as if afraid that Lin Xiaoqian might misunderstand, "It's like this: the creatures in this world are evolving to be more and more ferocious, and it's becoming increasingly dangerous for humans to go out hunting. So the base sent me to find some more weapons for self-defense."
Dawn Base, backed by the nation, actually has weapons reserves, but over the past decade, these weapons have been continuously depleted, and due to environmental reasons, it is impossible to build weapons factories to replenish them. If this continues, they will eventually run out.
Therefore, Su Ying's visit this time was not simply to exchange for some supplies; her biggest mission was to see if she could obtain from Lin Xiaoqian the means for them to survive in the apocalypse.
When Su Ying learned of Lin Xiaoqian's existence, she had some guesses about the identities of Lin Xiaoqian and his group.
A person who can produce a large amount of supplies and preserve them for ten years in the apocalypse, even keeping large agricultural machinery as good as new, must have very strong abilities, and may even possess very powerful weapons.
When it came to weapons, Lin Xiaoqian was a little undecided. She looked at Jiang Shuang, who nodded slightly.
Lin Xiaoqian understood and said to Su Ying, "We do have some weapons, but we still need to discuss the specifics of how to exchange them."
Hearing this, Su Ying felt relieved. It was good that they had it; as long as they had it, they could negotiate terms.
She smiled and said, "That's natural, that's natural."
Lin Xiaoqian and Jiang Shuang took Su Ying to show off the weapons.
In addition to some traditional guns, there were also guns produced by the Flower Kingdom in combination with energy weapons from the cyber world. Their power was so great that it opened the eyes of Su Ying and Shen Yimin.
Looking at these weapons that had never appeared in this world before, Su Ying had some doubts about the identities of Lin Xiaoqian and the others, but she wisely kept quiet about it.
After all, it seems that Ms. Lin and her group have no ill intentions towards them, and the supplies and weapons they brought are of great value to the Dawn Base.
Su Ying secretly calculated that no matter what Lin Xiaoqian and the others' true identities were, as long as they could reach a cooperation agreement, it would be extremely beneficial to the development of the base.
She smiled and said to Lin Xiaoqian and Jiang Shuang, "These weapons are truly amazing. I believe that with them, our base will be more confident when facing danger."
Back at the restaurant, the discussion turned to how to make the exchange.
Neither Lin Xiaoqian nor Su Ying participated in the negotiations regarding the exchange terms. After all, Lin Xiaoqian had the professional Liao Zhuang on her side, and Ms. Su Ying also brought her own professional team.
The specific details were discussed with someone, and Lin Xiaoqian personally cooked to entertain Su Ying.
Before long, one delicious dish after another was served. Lin Xiaoqian's cooking skills were now very refined, and even a simple stir-fry was delicious.
Su Ying sat at the dining table, watching the busy Lin Xiaoqian, and couldn't help but feel a little more curious about this mysterious woman.
When the dishes were laid out on the table, Lin Xiaoqian smiled and invited Su Ying to taste them. Su Ying picked up a bite of food and put it in her mouth. Her eyes lit up immediately: "Ms. Lin, I didn't expect your cooking skills to be so superb."
She was in the management of the official base, and unlike the people in the small base, she often ate rice and stir-fried dishes, so she was particularly surprised by such delicious food.
Lin Xiaoqian smiled and said, "I'm glad you like it."
Su Ying enjoyed a satisfying and hearty meal, and the arrangements with Liao Zhuang were also finalized.
In addition to exchanging a large amount of living supplies and weapons, Dawn Base also requested more than a dozen aircraft.
This made Shen Yimin very envious. He really wanted that powerful weapon. He also wanted a dozen or so aircraft instead of just one, which was never enough to go anywhere.
However, his Tomorrow Base is indeed insignificant compared to the Dawn Base, not to mention that the Dawn Base is backed by the nation and its financial resources are far beyond his reach.
Because Lin Xiaoqian and her group were to return to their original world in two days, a time limit was set for the exchange. Dawn Base needed to deliver the necessary items before Lin Xiaoqian and her group left, so Ms. Su Ying hurriedly went back to make arrangements.
She arrived in Shen Yimin's aircraft, and when she left, Liao Zhuang and Zhuang Damao each flew an aircraft back with her. Of course, the aircraft were filled with supplies needed by the Dawn Base.
When the two returned, in addition to some items given to them by the Dawn Base, they brought back about ten people who had come to learn how to fly aircraft.
The aura emanating from those people was very similar to that of Zhuang Damao and Jiang Shuang; they were clearly people who had undergone years of training in the military.
Zhuang Damao had a very good impression of this and was very dedicated to teaching.
Those people were specially selected by the Dawn Base; they were all very intelligent, and it wasn't long before all of them had completed their apprenticeships.
The large base has a large population and a lot of energy. Ever since the people from the Dawn Base learned to fly, there has been a lot of activity over Lin Xiaoqian's restaurant.
People were either there to pick up supplies or to deliver supplies. In just two days, Lin Xiaoqian obtained more creatures from this world than Shen Yimin and his bases had combined in the previous few days.
