Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse

Chapter 448: Chapter 448: Settle Down

Chapter 448: Chapter 448: Settle Down

Nie Qing realized he had been somewhat hasty after taking the face-changing pill.

Not to mention that his appearance had changed, if he left the Space, he’d probably be seen as a stranger by Guo Yang and the others, so before everyone set out, he could only stay in the Space with a face even he was not accustomed to.

On the other hand, Xing Taining and the others rented a three-bedroom, two-living-room apartment at the base. Although there were only five rooms, it was enough for them to settle in, and Li Wenbin’s Space had some single beds that could compensate for the lack of beds in the house.

They had only bought resources worth 2000 Crystal Cores. Besides supplying enough braised meat, braised eggs, pancakes, and eight-treasure porridge for Zhou Chengren, who was still hospitalized in the Base Hospital for observation, it was enough for another hearty meal for 11 people.

Using the hot water and electricity provided in the apartment, Xing Taining and his group felt like they were living like humans again.

So, Crystal Cores are so useful here.

When they rented the apartment, they originally planned to rent it for just one month, but the rent was much cheaper than they expected, so Xing Taining, with a wave of his hand, rented it for a year.

This was also because he had seen the dozen boxes of Crystal Cores in Li Wenbin’s Space at the Heart Talk Store, and renting for a year would also get a month’s worth of water and electrical bills waived, so Xing Taining indulged this once.

After taking showers, feeling their bellies warm and full, the group comfortably laid down on the clean beds, ready for a good night’s sleep.

However, everyone was still excited about what had happened today, and as they talked with their roommates, they heard noises coming from the living room.

“Captain Xing, what are you doing?”

Xiao Ge stared blankly at Xing Taining and Li Wenbin, who were sitting on the floor in the living room, counting Crystal Cores.

“The captain said he couldn’t sleep, so we came to count how many Crystal Cores we have.”

Li Wenbin lifted his head to speak.

“…”

It took 11 people until midnight to finally figure out the number of Crystal Cores they had, and they actually had more than 120,000?!

“This…”

Would they buy out all Su Jin’s supplies?

But thinking about the family’s assured tone, Xing Taining was not worried anymore and started making a list of supplies they wanted to buy on the side, because he was concerned about possible difficulties, he decided to go to Su Jin’s provided address the next day to find them.

No matter whether they could buy enough supplies, he and the remaining brothers had found a way to survive.

This base was a base where people could survive.

But why, even though both are safe bases, is there such a big difference?

…

The family was somewhat surprised, not expecting Xing Taining to come looking for them so soon—Su Jin had thought Xing Taining would wait a day or two before coming to find her. Now it seemed, their grain-selling team could set out earlier than planned.

“120,000?!”

The family asked in unison.

Lian Jiyue and Local Tyrant Gold watched the surprised family; the former continued to paint beside Mao Qiqi, while the latter swayed on the small swing inside the house.

This small swing was made for him by Yin Chengtian with his Wood Element ability. Owing to the monkey’s nature, the small swing had almost replaced its little nest; it even slept on it every night.

Xing Taining looked at this family brimming with life and nodded gravely, saying, “If you didn’t have so many supplies, we would have less…”

“We have them, and not everything on your supply list is food,”

Su Jin interrupted Xing Taining.

The supply list given by Xing Taining included, besides food, a considerable number of blankets and clothing for the cold, cooking utensils, various household and toiletry items, and even some medicines.

Hearing what Su Jin said, Xing Taining and his group finally put their minds at ease and also felt great joy.

Had they really managed to buy so many supplies?

Su Jin waved her hand and brought out the men’s clothing and bedding they had collected from the clothing market the day before yesterday, placing them on the living room floor.

“These are what we collected from the clothing market the day before yesterday. You can pick first, and we’ll gradually sort out the rest,”

Su Jin said to the people still wearing their worn clothes from yesterday.

These people seemed to have no clothes to change into, no wonder they wanted to buy so many clothes.

Xing Taining suppressed the shock in his heart. He had seen on the map before that the clothing market was close to the city center. Could it be that this family had actually gone there?

However, seeing that there were new clothes to wear, the group began to choose seriously.

During this time, Su Jin had already started to take items out of the “Space,” with Lu Hao helping by marking prices on the list, while the others began calculating with calculators.

Even Mao Qiqi started counting the quantities. It was their first time doing business at home, thankfully Guo Yang and the others had already gone to the store. Otherwise, they might have been scared too, having sold items worth 120,000 Crystal Cores all at once!

Xing Taining, after seeing the marked prices, was surprised to find that the price of food was actually the lowest, he could understand why the prices of household items and medicines were higher, but why was the price of food even slightly cheaper than their own store’s prices?

“The food also has a shelf life. We had collected a lot before, but it would expire if not sold quickly,”

Su Xiangzhe explained cheerfully.

Now it made sense to Xing Taining. Indeed, no wonder this family was selling food.

“I want to know more about my brother’s situation,”

Xing Taining looked at the family. Now, Zhou Chengren still needed to recuperate here for a while. Although he wanted to see his elder brother, he couldn’t just leave his comrade here alone, so he wanted to learn more about Xing Taian.

“Captain Xing, let me tell you, I have been there,”

Lin Xiuyuan approached and told him everything about Xing Taian, including how they had easily annihilated a zombie tide with the help of special ability users. Apart from Xing Taining, everyone else also listened intently. It was their first time hearing that one could kill zombies like that.

Xing Taining finally felt relieved. It appeared that not only had his older brother awakened his special ability, but he was also doing what he wanted to do. They could wait a bit longer before going to find him.

Li Wenbin looked at the living room full of supplies, suddenly too excited to speak. These were the supplies they had bought! Their very own supplies!

They no longer had to hand over everything when they arrived at the base after finding supplies outside!

And every time after they handed over everything, people always suspected them of hoarding supplies.

To hell with D City Base!
