MTL - The State Arranged For Me To Farm-Chapter 96
The sky was getting dark gradually, and the electric pickup truck was speeding along the winding road at an extremely fast speed.
Lin Ling drove for three hours, and finally arrived in City G when it was dark. The city was pitch black, surrounded by overgrown weeds, and there was no human habitation.
But she knew that there would be a small market tomorrow, and many people would come early, so she didn't dare to take it lightly. Instead of going into the city, she found a place on the edge of the city that could shelter from the wind and cold for a while.
After finding a temporary place to live, Lin Ling and Brother Chou ate two big boiled potatoes each, then leaned against the wall and closed their eyes to rest.
After dawn, Lin Ling wandered around the surrounding grocery market, but found nothing.
When it was around ten o'clock, Lin Ling drove the ugly brother to the small market.
When she arrived, the market in the small square had already opened. There were about 20 people. Everyone put their things on the ground with big bags and small bags. Some people shouted: "I'm selling some seeds here. If you like it, you can exchange hard currency for food, and if you have other rare things, or what I lack, you can also exchange them."
Another person said: "I sell toilet paper, but you probably don't have any? It doesn't feel good to wipe your **** with wood chips, but it's more comfortable to use toilet paper."
"Comparing this way, I found that everyone should look down on what I sell." The speaker brought potatoes, wheat and other grains.
"Everyone has been farming for a year or two, and everyone should not be short of these grains." A person next to him said, "Why didn't you bring some good things?"
"This is not the first time the small market has opened. I was afraid that no one would come, so I brought some potatoes."
"Then it's not worthwhile for you to travel all the way."
"It's really a loss."
Lin Ling walked to the small market with the hen, eggs, and fifty chicks that she brought, and picked a place on the edge, "Brother ugly, look at the stall, I'll go over and see what's there thing."
Brother Chou lay beside the stall, his tail swaying slightly, seemingly leisurely, but his eyes were staring at the stall without blinking, wary of the people around him.
"Big Brother? You're here." The person who had traded with Lin Ling twice greeted her, "What are you selling today?"
"Bring some chickens, eggs, and chicks." Lin Ling looked at the things on the stalls. She didn't need pots and pans. She also had potatoes, sweet potatoes, and toilet paper, but she could buy some more.
"Big Brother, I have some seeds here, would you like to take a look?" One of them showed the seeds to Lin Ling, "There are vegetable seeds such as cucumbers and pumpkins, and some fruit seeds. Bag of tree seeds."
Lin Ling glanced at the other party's fruit seeds. There were watermelon seeds, cherry seeds, and loquat seeds in them. She was quite excited to see them, but waited for her to finish shopping in the small market before thinking about what to buy: "Later Let's chat."
The man knew it was over, "Then I'll go find you later."
Lin Ling went to other places again, most of them were food sellers, and some clothes, shoes, bed sheets and quilt covers were found for sale, and they didn't look like new ones.
After looking around, she still thinks that selling seeds is good.
When Brother Chou saw Lin Ling came back, he barked softly: Is there anything you want?
"The seeds are not bad. Let's see if we can change them later." Lin Ling sat next to Brother Chou, guarding his stall.
As soon as she sat down, someone came over with the food she had brought: "Big brother, can I exchange my food for chickens with you?"
Lin Ling looked at the person coming, "Didn't you just come? Don't wait a while longer?"
"I'm actually here to join in the fun. Everyone is not short of my little food now, so no one should trade it with me." The other party looked at Lin Ling's chicken, and felt that he might as well have traded for what he wanted and left. "
"Okay." Lin Ling pointed to the chicks, "These chicks have just been hatched for more than ten days, and they are all hens. The price is cheap, and you can get three of them for ten catties of rice."
The other party asked again: "What about these bigger ones?"
"One of these fifty catties has been raised for four months, and it should be ready to lay eggs in two months." Lin Ling paused, "If you want a hen that has already laid eggs, you need a hundred catties It can be cheaper if you exchange it with things like rape, peanuts, cotton and fruits. But I don’t have any here for the time being, so I have to go back and get them.”
The other party only brought rice and wheat characters, which totaled more than a hundred catties, and he could only buy chickens and chickens, "Then I will buy six chickens and a bigger hen, okay? "
"Yes." Lin Ling saw that the other party was very thin and dark, and that he was in urgent need of nourishment, "Do you want to buy eggs? You can exchange five eggs for a catty of rice."
When the other party heard that the price was not expensive, he immediately said: "Then I will exchange ten."
After the man changed the chickens and eggs, he saw that there were still more than 20 catties of food left, and he was proud: "Did you bring the battery and power bank today? I want to buy a battery."
Lin Ling looked at the battery on the opponent's car: "Don't you have it?"
"There's no electricity inside."
"Then charge it for you, just a catty of rice." Lin Ling patted Brother Chou on the head, and Brother Chou walked directly to the battery, opened his mouth to reveal his sparkling teeth, and bit the charging port of the battery to start delivering power.
The battery was fully charged in less than five minutes: "Okay."
"Thank you." After the person changed and left with the battery in his arms, the person next to him couldn't help but said, "Big Brother, can you ask your mutant beast to charge us?"
Lin Ling: "Yes."
After a while, Brother Chou fully charged all the devices that these people needed to charge. After finishing the charging business, everyone started buying Lin Ling's eggs again: "Your eggs are really so cheap?"
"They are ordinary eggs from chickens that cannot hatch, so they are sold at a lower price." Lin Ling looked at the other party: "How many do you want to buy? I brought a total of 100 eggs this time, and they will be gone after they are sold out."
Although everyone has grown food, there are still very few people raising livestock, so when they heard that eggs were so cheap, they all said, "Yes."
The eggs were quickly sold out, and dozens of chicks were sold, leaving nine hens and thirty chicks.
The person who sold the seeds was almost as expensive as Lin Ling's chickens, so he could only come to Lin Ling in the end: "Big Brother, how many chickens can I exchange these fruit seeds with you?"
Lin Ling moved his mandible, "How many?"
The man said: "Three, at least three, I took these seeds out of the safe area, and there are no other places."
Lin Ling didn't believe this, she glanced at the other party's seeds, "Three are fine. But you need to add your two sacks of tree seeds."
This person felt that he was at a loss: "My tree species is also my hard work..."
Lin Ling raised her eyebrows: "Did you work so hard to get it out of the safe zone?"
The man laughed out loud, "That's not true."
Lin Ling didn't talk nonsense: "If you agree, you can close the stall and go home early today."
The man thought for dozens of seconds, then nodded: "OK."
After exchanging seeds with this person, the people in the small market gradually dispersed. Lin Ling moved all the things into the car, and then drove the car around to bookstores and stationery stores. I bought some books, and also took some paper, pens, and printers and walked back.
After 30 kilometers out of the city, Lin Ling's car suddenly clicked and turned off.
She tried to ignite the ignition again, but the car didn't respond at all.
Could it be that there is no electricity?
Wasn't the battery just replaced this morning? Lin Ling got out of the car in doubt to check the battery, and found that the battery was full. What's going on?
She walked around the car again, and found that the four wheels were all right, and the front of the car seemed to have no trace of work.
"It's weird." Lin Ling frowned and looked at the pickup truck, not knowing why it broke down.
Ugly brother barked: The car broke down?
Lin Ling hummed.
Ugly Brother: Repair?
Lin Ling: "I can't fix it."
She looked around, but there was no one around, no car, no means of transportation. Is this going to let her go back for a few days and nights?
Lin Ling took out her mobile phone and entered the forum, changed her name and posted a post asking everyone: "Does anyone know why a good car can't be driven?"
Soon someone replied: "I don't have a car, I don't know."
Floor 2: "Maybe it's out of electricity."
Floor 3: "Maybe the engine is broken."
…
These people are talking on paper, they don’t know how to repair cars, and she doesn’t understand anything. Lin Ling sighed and quit the phone: “Twenty minutes ago we passed by a place that sells second-hand cars. car."
Lin Ling asked Brother Chou to watch the car, and she walked back along the road with a spare battery.
For a 20-minute drive, Lin Ling had to walk for at least two hours. She ran and walked, and she was covered in sweat after walking for a while.
She took off her coat and walked forward with the battery on her shoulders. At the same time, she picked up her mobile phone with one free hand and sent a message to 1200: "Do you have a manual for car repair? Do you know what tools are needed?"
It didn't take long for 1200 to return a message: "The car is broken?"
"It's broken halfway." Lin Ling asked, "Do you know how to repair the car? I'll go back and look for a place that sells used cars to see if there are any tools I can use."
1200 did not answer whether he would repair the car: "Where."
Lin Ling didn't understand, so, "You still want to help me repair the car? It's too far away, it's inconvenient, just tell me what tools you need."
1200 no further reply.
"So stingy? I'm not going back now? Forget it, I'll be self-reliant." Lin Ling frowned and continued walking forward.
Staring at the sweltering weather, she walked for more than an hour, and finally arrived at the second-hand car shop passing by. There were many cars in front of the shop, covered with thick dust, and some wheels had been removed. Couldn't find a sound car.
Lin Ling could only give up the idea of looking for a car, smashed open the door of the second-hand car shop, went in and pulled out a lot of maintenance tools.
I found the tool, but she can't fix it either!
If only there was a car repair guide! Lin Ling rummaged through the cabinets inside again, trying to find a technical book on car repair, but couldn't find it after searching for a long time.
The discouraged Lin Ling could only use the trailer in the second-hand car shop to pull the tools back. As she walked, she heard the sound of the horn honking from behind her. She turned her head and looked at the oncoming car: "Captain Lu?"
