Rebirth of the apocalypse: Winning a prize of 30 million at the beginning

Chapter 1547 Who sets the price for selling mooncakes? !

Half past two in the afternoon.

Wu City Military Base.

Last time Song Qi proposed to patrol near the Wu City military base, so they discovered the helicopter in the air before it landed.

"Look, that's the helicopter from our headquarters base." A combatant pointed at the helicopter flying towards this direction not far away and shouted.

Song Qi picked up the telescope and looked carefully. His face lit up and he quickly picked up the walkie-talkie to contact Li Qi.

"Li Qi, someone is coming from the headquarters base, come out quickly."

After saying that, he led the patrolmen and ran down the mountain quickly.

By the time Lao Bi got off the helicopter, Li Qi and Song Qi were already waiting outside the military base.

Lao Bi saw Li Qi and Song Qi coming to greet them, and said with a smile:

"Before we set off, I made a bet with the city lord. I said you wouldn't be able to spot me when I landed. I didn't expect you to react so quickly."

Song Qi pointed to the mountain and said, "We have patrols patrolling around during the day."

Lao Bi waved his hand behind him, "Bring it down."

"These are mooncakes produced at the headquarters base. There are sixty-eight pieces in total. Based on the number of you, each of you will have one."

"Moon cakes?" Li Qi's brows twitched, and then she remembered that the Mid-Autumn Festival seemed to be coming soon.

The headquarters base is so considerate that they don’t forget to distribute mooncakes to their members who are out on missions.

"What kind of stuffing is it?" Song Qi asked with a smile.

Lao Bi shook his head and said, "I don't know either. I haven't opened it, and I don't know what the flavor is inside."

After seeing the team members carrying down the two boxes of mooncakes, he turned to Li Qi and the others and said:

"Okay, the moon cakes have been delivered. We have to rush to Oil City. See you soon."

"Thank you, Captain Bi."

"It's okay, I'm just completing the mission at the base."

After saying that, he returned to the helicopter and quickly took off towards Oil City.

Li Qi, Song Qi and others watched the helicopter leave and focused their attention on the two boxes of mooncakes.

Xiao Luo took out a dagger and cut open the packaging tape.

The mooncakes were packaged in paper bags. She took them out.

Golden color, crispy crust.

The baked mooncake exudes a faint aroma, and the surface is engraved with the icon pattern of the camphor tree base, a big tree, symbolizing vitality.

This kind of mooncake is different from the mooncakes produced in factories before the end of the world. No additives are added. The ingredients are very solid and there is no taste of additives or essences.

“It smells so good!”

"I haven't eaten mooncakes for a long time, wow!"

"I used to hate eating mooncakes. In recent years, I couldn't eat any mooncakes every time I wanted to during the Mid-Autumn Festival. I didn't expect that I would actually eat mooncakes this year."

"Very good!"

Everyone gathered around the two boxes of moon cakes, excited.

Seeing that everyone was very happy, Li Qi smiled and said to Xiao Luo: "Give it out, one for each person."

A portion of mooncakes is small, but the base distributes mooncakes and remembers them who are stationed here, which makes Li Qi and others feel warm in their hearts.

As they are stationed at the military base in Wu City, they are surrounded by deserted areas and are far away from the Oil City and the headquarters base. Except for the occasional transportation team to their side, they usually cannot see other humans.

Moon cakes. Mid-Autumn Festival means reunion.

At this moment, Li Qi suddenly missed her friends at the headquarters base and Oil City.

Maybe there will be no chance to reunite in the future.

Fortunately, Zuo Ruxue is in charge of the transportation brigade and can be seen a few times every month.

But Zhu Xiao, Guo Peng, Yu Lei, and Yu Ming don't know when they will be able to meet each other.

Nowadays, everyone is scattered in three or four places for the development of the base. It is really difficult to get together.

Song Qi didn't think too much. After receiving his piece of mooncake, he opened the bag and took a big bite of the mooncake.

"Holy crap! This is the best mooncake I've ever eaten. It's delicious!"

The outer skin is crispy and layered, with a slight sweetness, while the inner filling is dense and delicate, sweet but not greasy. This mooncake has a crispy outer skin, and the filling is filled with bean paste and various dried fruits.

The taste is very good.

Song Qi just took a bite and put the remaining mooncake back into the paper bag.

He will wait until the Mid-Autumn Festival to eat the remaining mooncakes.

Four forty-nine in the evening.

Lao Bi arrived in Oil City in a helicopter.

"Oh, Director Luo came to greet me. I'm flattered." Lao Bi teased when he saw Lao Luo walking towards him after getting off the plane.

Lao Bi, Lao Luo and Lao Yi all joined the Da Zhangshu Base from Mr. Ye.

The relationship is excellent.

According to rank, Lao Luo is Lao Bi's leader. After all, Lao Bi's helicopter brigade is affiliated with the operations department.

When Lao Luo heard what Lao Bi said, he punched him directly in the chest.

"Old boy, you're so mouthy, you're still so ungrateful."

"Where are the mooncakes? Where are they?"

Lao Bi pointed behind him, "Inside the helicopter, I have brought you 6,500 moon cakes, one for each person who is level 3 and above. Level 4 people can buy one with 2 points, and the rest are sold in the trading market. "

"Well, the president told me in the afternoon." Lao Luo nodded.

He shouted to the team members behind him: "Tai'a, help them move the mooncakes down."

Lao Bi quickly added: "Don't move it by mistake. Some of them will be sent to the north tomorrow. There are marks on them. Xiao He, you move with them."

Then, the two left the apron.

The two chatted on the way to the meeting room.

"We had the spy contact the Northwest boss this afternoon."

"Oh? How was it? What did you talk about?"

Lao Luo said solemnly: "Through the spy's mouth, we told their boss some irrelevant information. In addition, I don't know if this can deceive their boss."

"Why think so much, we will fight against the enemy and cover the water."

"You think it's easy, you were like this when you were in the army before."

"Hahaha, isn't that the case with people? The more you think, the more troubles you have. We have to learn from that old Xie."

"Old Xie has a good mentality, but he is the bald one."

"I will go to the North tomorrow, I will tell Old Xie"

Time is getting late.

Night falls, and the day after tomorrow is Mid-Autumn Festival.

As Mid-Autumn Festival approaches, the moon is getting rounder and the moonlight is getting brighter and brighter.

Tonight, moon cakes are distributed to all personnel above level 3.

In the canteen of Oil City, every person queuing for food will be given a moon cake.

Old Huang finished his day's work and returned to the canteen to get food. Xiao Ye has been helping him recently.

After Su Qian routinely served Old Huang food, she gave him a mooncake.

"What is this?" It was wrapped in a layer of yellow wood pulp paper, so you couldn't tell what was inside from the outside.

Su Qian smiled and said, "This is the Mid-Autumn Festival mooncake that the headquarters base just sent over. Happy Mid-Autumn Festival."

"Mooncake?"

Old Huang was stunned when he heard this and stayed where he was.

Mid-Autumn Festival mooncakes made him think about a lot of things in a moment, and he remembered a lot of things in his mind.

The moon is brighter in his hometown, but he can never go back to his hometown.

The day after tomorrow is Mid-Autumn Festival, a day to reunite with his family.

But he no longer has a blood family.

He took the mooncake, his eyes were a little dim.

"Old Huang, your claws, I'm starving, let me get food." Xiao Ye shouted from behind.

"Bastard!" Old Huang's dim eyes gradually recovered.

Although he has no blood relatives, at least he has a son who recognizes him as his godson, and he can be considered his grandfather.

After going through so much, although they are not real father and son, they are better than real father and son.

He made way for Xiaoye to get food, and walked to the side with the rice bowl.

Xiaoye's exclamation came from behind: "Oh my god, mooncakes, there are still these things! I'm so proud of them!"

Old Huang smiled, this kid is always so noisy.

"Director Huang." Someone came towards him.

"Doctor Ni." Old Huang turned his head and saw Ni Guangkuo.

This Ni Guangkuo used to be from the North, and was later pulled to the headquarters base.

Later, in the operation to support the oil city, he was sent here. Because of his superb medical skills and honest and upright personality, he was appointed as the director of the trading market hospital.

"What's in your hand?" Ni Guangkuo pointed to the mooncake in his hand.

"Mooncakes, they said the headquarters base just sent them this evening."

"Mooncakes? Wow! So good!" Ni Guangkuo exclaimed.

He missed his son. He was sent to Oil City, but his son stayed at the headquarters base.

He didn't know when he could return to the headquarters base.

With mixed emotions, Ni Guangkuo separated from Lao Huang and went to the window to get food.

Xiao Ye and Lao Huang sat side by side, "Lao Huang"

"Call me grandpa."

"Lao Huang."

"Call me grandpa, and I'll give you mooncakes."

"Who cares? I have my own."

As he said that, he changed the subject and seemed to remember something.

He said sadly: "I don't know how the Concubine is doing."

Lao Huang was eating, his hand paused, and he also thought of the Concubine.

The Concubine had teamed up with the two of them, one old, one young and one girl.

The three-person team, a team that started when they joined the camphor tree base, experienced many things together, and had a deep relationship. Lao Huang almost regarded the Concubine as his granddaughter.

Since the central meeting at the headquarters base, Lao Huang was sent to the trading market, and Guifei went to the militia to serve as the captain of the tenth team.

"She doesn't have many acquaintances in the North. It would be great if she came to Oil City together, and Zhong Chuchu and the others are there." Lao Huang sighed and shook his head.

People in the end times have seen too many bad things: bad people, bad things, bad scenes.

But, you will also meet some good people.

Especially after going through some difficult years together, every time you think about it, you will feel precious.

"Sister Guifei must be very domineering as the captain in the North!" Xiao Ye said with a beaming eyebrow.

Lao Huang looked at his excited look and felt that young people's sadness came and went quickly.

The mooncakes of the staff on duty were placed on their beds to ensure that every staff above level three received a mooncake.

Nearly 4,000 mooncakes were distributed, and there were still 3,500 mooncakes left.

"Minister, according to the mayor's intention, the remaining mooncakes are to be distributed to level 4 and 5 personnel, and they can use their points to buy them." Lao Bi said to Uncle San.

Uncle San looked at the boxes placed outside, "Well, you don't need to tell me, just let Lao Luo handle it."

"Okay." Lao Bi nodded.

Found Lao Luo and gave him the task.

Lao Luo felt that it was troublesome to call all the level 4 personnel over, so he simply asked them to send all the mooncakes to the self-operated restaurant in the commercial area of ​​the trading market.

Because some Level 4 personnel may not be willing to spend their two points to buy mooncakes.

After all, some Level 4 personnel have come from the most difficult and hardest days. Many of them climbed the wall during thunderstorms and risked their lives to buy food.

Now that life is better, they can afford two, but they may not be willing to spend.

Send all the mooncakes to the self-operated restaurant, and then broadcast it on the radio, and those who want to buy will come naturally.

So far, there are three stores that sell food in the trading market. One is Store No. 2, named Oil City Restaurant, which specializes in selling some low-priced food, such as corn tortillas and multi-grain cakes.

A store No. 10, called He Lexuan, has a relatively high price and exquisite stir-fry, which is not affordable for ordinary people.

One is Store No. 34, a grocery store, which sells a variety of products, such as some kudzu roots, dried sweet potatoes, and even expired canned food and expired biscuits.

Lao Luo asked Li Zhengping to send all these mooncakes to Oil City Restaurant No. 2.

Li Zhengping heard about mooncakes and asked curiously:

"Where is the one for our patrol team?"

Zhong Chuchu next to him smiled and said: "They have all been distributed to your dormitory beds. You can get them when you are done."

"Oh, that's it." Li Zhengping nodded.

Afterwards, he directed the team members to lift the boxes of mooncakes onto the pickup truck and send them to Shop No. 2.

Ten minutes later.

Shop No. 2 of the trading market, Oil City Restaurant.

The standard sign is simple and unpretentious, and it does not stand out compared to other shops in the commercial district.

But this shop is almost the busiest shop in the entire trading market.

Because there are so many people coming here to buy corn cakes every day, there is often a queue in this shop.

This is just at the edge of the commercial district. When there are many people, they can even queue outside the commercial district.

Seeing so many people blocking the way in front, Li Zhengping said to the driver:

"There are too many people at the front door. Let's go through the back door."

"Okay, Captain."

Put the car in reverse gear and step on the accelerator to reverse.

Arriving at the back door of the hotel, the commercial area has been expanding recently. Originally there were no shops at the back door of the hotel, but now a row of shops have been built, but they are not as prosperous as the main street.

Parking.

Li Zhengping got out of the car and said to the driver: "Let Ermao and the others bring all the mooncakes in."

As he said that, he walked to the back door of the hotel. There was a sign at the back of the hotel that said "kitchen is a restricted area, no entry for outsiders."

Li Zhengping pulled the door, and it was locked.

Bang bang bang!

He slapped the back door hard.

Bang bang bang!

"Old Gong, open the door."

The door creaked open.

A man in a hat opened the door, and there was some corn stalk powder on his hands.

Seeing that it was Li Zhengping, the man quickly opened the door wider.

"Captain Li, why are you here?"

Li Zhengping nodded at him, "Where is Old Gong? I have something to ask him."

"Also, open the door. There is a batch of mooncakes to be brought in."

"Mooncakes, you mean mooncakes?" The man looked at Li Zhengping in surprise.

"Yes, it was sent from the headquarters."

"Brother Gong is checking the accounts in front."

Li Zhengping heard this and walked towards the front hall.

Store No. 2 is quite large. The first floor alone covers an area of ​​400 square meters. There are four sales windows in the front, of which 300 square meters are the back kitchen and the central kitchen.

The upstairs is used to store some raw materials for making corn tortillas and multi-grain cakes.

He walked to the front hall and saw a man with a mustache sitting behind a computer, looking at the computer intently.

"Old Gong!"

Gong Wan looked up and saw that it was Li Zhengping, and his face wrinkled into a bitter melon.

"Brother, I called you brother, you can either call me Gong Wan or call me Lao Wan, don't call me Lao Gong, it's easy to cause misunderstandings! Brother!"

Li Zhengping curled his lips, he didn't care about the nonsense, why did this Gong Laoer pay so much attention to it.

Walked over and looked at his computer, the table was full of dense numbers and names.

It made him dizzy.

"The headquarters base sent a batch of mooncakes to be sold here. Level 4 personnel get 2 points for each, and level 5 personnel get 5 points for each. You can put them up for sale later."

"Mooncakes? How much is one? 5 points!?" Gong Wan stood up and asked in shock:

"Who set the price? It's so expensive!"
