My Abandoned Oil Town Became a New Frontline - Chapter 14
[Chapter 14 Stealing a house]
Binghu Town originally had 100,000 people living here. It is about three kilometers long from east to west and about two kilometers wide from north to south. It is separated by a 215 National Highway in the middle, covering a very large area.
After crossing the highway and
looking deeper inward, looking at the rows of ruins, Xu Xing couldn’t help but feel emotional.
I thought that the scope of his activities yesterday was quite large, at least he had covered most of the town. But looking at it now, the area to the north is larger than the area to the south, with many ruined buildings,
and one can even be seen not far away. The word “Post Office” is written on the remaining wall.
“This afternoon I will mainly focus on cleaning up the waste materials on the ruins!”
After returning to his senses,
Xu Xing stopped wandering around and started walking around the ruins one by one.
Valuable beams are usually buried in the ruins. If it is just for the beams, there is no need to come to the north area. Just clean up a lot of ruins behind the house.
Facts have proved that Xu Xing’s idea was right.
Just after walking through two ruins, I found a section of a wooden rafter protruding from the ruins. After pulling it out, the system’s beep sounded,
“Ding! Remind the host that a wooden rafter that can be pawned has been found. Does the host want to pawn it?”
” Pawn!”
Xu Xing, who was already familiar with the system, directly agreed.
“Congratulations to the host for getting 10 pawn points.”
“10 pawn points? Not bad! Not bad!”
The scorching sun was high,
and just like that, as Xu Xing went deeper, the system’s voice began to sound one after another,
“Ding, remind the host that a pawn can be found. “
Ding, remind the host, I found a wooden frame that can be pawned.”
“Ding, remind the host, I found an iron wire that can be pawned.”
At first, Xu Xing was still counting the pawn value silently, just because he saw it when he took time to rest this morning. After a few glances at the system mall, the cheapest new bed and bedding in the store were worth 1,500 pawns.
I originally had a pawn value of 520, but after spending 400 on the door, I still had 120 left.
In other words, the pawn value of one thousand fourteen must be collected this afternoon.
However, as he picked up more and more things, Xu Xing no longer had time to calculate the pawn value. Anyway, he earned what he picked up, and it would not be too late to take stock again when he went back in the afternoon.
Ten minutes and half an hour.
If it were anyone else, they would definitely need to take a break after rummaging through the ruins for an hour or two, and at least drink some water.
But Xu Xing didn’t seem to get tired,
and he didn’t rest until five o’clock in the afternoon!
call!
In a blink of an eye, it was half past five in the afternoon.
When Xu Xing walked around the ruins and planned to continue rummaging through discarded garbage materials, he was suddenly stunned.
I saw a large pile of wooden rafters scattered around a ruined building in the distance, and there was also a main beam.
“Huh? What’s the situation? Is there someone camping here?”
Xu Xing
was stunned and walked over immediately.
The town has been abandoned for many years, and these things were basically buried in the collapsed adobe. Now a lot of them suddenly appeared. Someone must have deliberately cleaned them up.
Soon,
he walked slowly in three and two steps and arrived in front of a large pile of wooden rafters. At first glance, it was true.
I saw that the ruins of the pile of wood were all clean, and there was still ashes from a fire in the center of the ruins.
“Sure enough, someone has been camping here! It seems that there are many people who like hiking.”
Xu Xing looked around subconsciously.
It turned out that Xu Xing was walking all the way and unknowingly came to the campsite of Liu Ning, He Shan and other four people. However, he did not know the existence of Liu Ning and others, and thought this was a place where ordinary travel friends had camped.
“Wait a minute, there seems to be something under the adobe over there!”
Looking back,
Xu Xing found a big pile bulging in the other corner of the ruins, and there seemed to be a lot of colorful things underneath, and he immediately walked over.
When I opened it, I saw
a small pile of tents, snacks, mineral water, etc.
“What’s going on? Looking at the ashes and these tents and dry materials, the people should have left. If they hadn’t left, all these things would have been taken away.
But it seems that they left in a hurry. I hope nothing happened to these travelers.”
Check . After thinking
about it for a while,
Xu Xing subconsciously made a normal person’s judgment.
“What should I do? It’s a pity to lose things when everyone is gone. Anyway, the whole town belongs to them now. The wood they cleared out can be pawned directly.
As for the tents and snacks?
If they come back one day, what they said can be right. If you sign up, you can return it to them.”
After returning to his senses,
Xu Xing turned to look at the wood pile.
It was roughly estimated that the pile of wood was much larger than what he cleared out on the first day.
Coincidentally,
at this moment, the system’s voice also sounded,
“Ding, congratulations to the host, you have found a main beam that can be pawned. I would like to ask the host if you want to pawn it.”
“Pawn!”
Without any further hesitation, Xu Xing directly logged in to the system. Order.
Again!
The entire abandoned town belongs to them, and even if they come back, the wooden beams cannot be taken away.
Ah sneeze!
In a small hotel in the county seat of Sasse County, Liu Ning sneezed several times after just taking a hot shower.
“Brother Liu, have you caught a cold? The environment here is really bad! If I had known, we would have gone to Jiuge City! The conditions in Jiuge City must be much better than here.”
From the side,
He Shan couldn’t help but ask .
Asai County is the closest county to Binghu Town, about 150 kilometers away, but it is better to say it is a town than a county!
The entire county has only a permanent population of more than 11,000, and its area is not as large as the Binghu Town in its glory days. The urban construction of the county is also extremely simple, just a long street running through the national highway.
The hotel they stayed in was already the best hotel in the county,
but the conditions were not as good as those in small towns in the south. It didn’t even have air conditioning, and the bed was even covered with electric blankets that were about to become obsolete.
“Maybe!”
Liu Ning replied after twitching his nose twice.
It is said that after they quietly left Binghu Town at noon today, they followed the navigation and came here. They first found a restaurant and had a big meal before settling in.
“Brother Liu, how about I go down and buy you some medicine?”
He Shan asked again.
Although the conditions in Asai County are not that good, there are many pharmacies. Along the way just now, there are pharmacies every now and then on a street.
“It’s okay! Let’s make a living here tonight, and we’ll see what happens tomorrow.”
Liu Ning’s nose twitched a few more times, feeling better than before.
Of course,
Liu Ning just didn’t know that he sneezed just now because Xu Xing stole his home quietly. If he knew, he would never be as calm as now.
“Depends on the situation? Brother Liu, you don’t seem to be in good condition. And I just checked the weather forecast. The weather forecast said that there may be widespread rainfall here in a few days.
The conditions of this hotel are like this “Don’t let the cold get serious again.”
He Shan hesitated and then said again.
