Embers Ad Infinitum

Chapter 431: gift

Views:

The "Old Tune Group" deliberately circled around, crossed the Red River from other places, and returned from the southeast of the original city.

This is because the garrison in the advance camp has already reported that they have multiple military exoskeleton devices, and even if they have acquaintances, they will not help them, adding a lot of trouble.

Compared with the entrance on the north bank, there were originally a large number of manors in the southeast of the city, and many citizens came and went every day, and the inspection was relatively less stringent.

In addition, the arrest of the accomplice of the murderer in the arena assassination case has been going on for several days, and the soldiers are definitely not as concerned as before.

After entering the city and returning to a safe house, Jiang Baimian glanced at the sky and said:

"Today's task is to rest, tomorrow, three things, one is to return the car and change the car, change the jeep back to the original paint, the second is to go to the Jinmaisui District to find Smith of the Mirror Sect, three, three are the most important, go to Visit Xiaochong."

Whether it is to prevent the "King of the Unintentional" from instinctively affecting the residents of the original city, or to ask him to help in certain matters, it is necessary for the "Old Tune Group" to come and "chat" with him.

For Shang Jianyao, seeing friends is a very important thing in itself.

Papapa, Shang Jianyao applauded Jiang Baimian's arrangement.

"Xiao Chong should be kind to us..." Long Yuehong muttered in a self-soothing tone.

Bai Chen agreed:

"As long as we don't offend him and follow him, nothing should happen."

At this time, Jiang Baimian thought about it and said:

"Since it's a visit, don't you have to bring some gifts, or it's very rude?"

Long Yuehong was a little dazed when she heard it, and subconsciously wanted to say "it's not necessary".

Among the ordinary employees of "Pangu Biology", due to the limited quota, not many contribution points, and insufficient supplies, everyone does not have the habit of giving gifts during festivals and daily visits, and the communication between them is closer to the concept of visiting.

"Yes." Bai Chen agreed with the team leader.

Among the wilderness wanderers and relic hunters, the lack of food and clothing is the norm, and there is no custom of bringing gifts when going to other people's homes. Occasionally do some "illegal" things, and when seeking convenience, they will also join a few people to gather some things to buy off guards or supervisors.

Genova has a rich "human gift-giving database" and asked directly:

"What should I send?"

Jiang Baimian glanced at Shang Jianyao, and found that he was not interested in discussing this topic at all, as if "a friend is at heart and not polite".

"Well, food?" Jiang Baimian looked back and said thoughtfully, "I remember Xiaochong said that he also eats, but less, and he taught those 'high-level unintentional people' how to use fire, how to bake and cook."

"Bring a bunch of beef, canned food, and potatoes to Xiaochong?" Long Yuehong was particularly excited when it came to this topic.

He felt that it was a gift that everyone in the dust could not resist.

Of course, Xiaochong is not necessarily a "person".

"Would it be a little strange to let others do it themselves?" Jiang Baimian commented from a polite point of view.

"I usually send the ones that are convenient to eat." Bai Chen recalled his past experiences, "Canned food is no problem, potatoes and beef are no longer necessary, they can be changed to bread, as well as the original pizza, which is also the best. Choose the one with cream, you can buy it in the better-conditioned streets of the Red Giant Wolf District, and children like it better."

"You seem to be very good at coaxing children." Jiang Baimian laughed.

Bai Chen was silent for a few seconds and said:

"sometimes will."

"Is it because they remind you of your childhood?" Genova asked, not understanding.

You broken robot, pay attention to emotional intelligence! You are about to form a second general with Hey! Jiang Baimian couldn't stop it, so he could only scolded Lao Ge in his heart.

Bai Chen pursed his lips and said after a few seconds:

"Um."

Her voice was low, not too clear, but neither angry nor angry.

Jiang Baimian quickly changed the subject:

"In addition to food, you can also consider Xiaochong's favorite game."

"Send a game card?" Shang Jianyao was refreshed, and seemed to want to choose Xiaochong himself, and then play together.

Xiaochong's old world game console uses cards.

"There are very few game cards saved, and it's not that easy to get good ones." Jiang Baimian laughed as he spoke, "But we have a lot of computer games."

This is one of the old world entertainment sources they have collected in Tarnnan.

Seeing Long Yuehong still a little puzzled, Jiang Baimian added:

"Give Xiao Chong a computer of the latest model and install all kinds of games on him!"

From then on, the "King of the Unintentional" was completely addicted to the game and never wanted to destroy the world... Long Yuehong had such an idea inexplicably.

Then, he subconsciously said:

"very expensive."

Especially expensive in the first city.

"The latest model of portable computer costs about eight or nine hundred ore here, or even more." Bai Chen reported the number.

"Eight or nine hundred?" Jiang Baimian was shocked.

She knew it was expensive, but she didn't expect it to be so expensive.

In Tarnan in "Mechanical Paradise", a laptop of the latest model is about 100 ore, and an older model that is slightly worse can be won by 50 or 60 ore.

"It's about the same price." Genova confirmed Bai Chen's statement.

The "Mechanical Paradise" delegation paid attention to the value of the corresponding electronic products in the surrounding area when trading with the people of Weed City.

Jiang Baimian quickly calmed down and said after deliberation:

"There are two options. One is to put the application for funds on it. Anyway, the 'Black Shirts' side almost made the final payment. If it is delayed for a week or two, they should not rush it. The second is from the group. Squeeze one for Xiaochong, um, just use mine."

"Use mine, you have a lot of documents and data." Bai Chen calmly suggested.

"Okay." Jiang Baimian waved his hand arrogantly, "I'll make it up for you later!"

After finalizing this matter, Jiang Baimian hesitated again:

"Isn't it a good idea to give such an expensive gift in the first place

"I don't know if Xiaochong has ever heard the phrase 'to be courteous for nothing, not a traitor or a thief'..."

Bai Chen and Long Yuehong looked at each other and said after thinking:

"You can give it a second time, bring some food for the first time, just chat, don't mention things you need help, just deepen the relationship."

Jiang Baimian said "um":

"This plan is relatively stable."

"Team leader, do you want to bring a set of clothes by the way?" Long Yuehong took the initiative to add, "I remember that when Xiaochong left the floor of the underground computer room, he only brought the game console and its accessories, but no clothes. "

Jiang Baimian pondered for a moment and said:

"Not for now.

"I'm afraid that the suit has some special meaning, and if he changes it, something terrible will happen.

"However, when you say that, I remember a situation, Xiaochong really wanted to eat scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

"Well, we can bring some tomatoes and some eggs, and then decide whether to make them for him or not depending on the situation."

"This is fine!" Shang Jianyao raised his hand and wiped the corner of his mouth.

"That's the decision." Jiang Baimian sighed and took out the radio transceiver.

Because this time they only received and did not send, so they did not go to a special safe house.

At the appointed time, "Pangu Creatures" responded to their report last night:

"As long as you don't enter the ruins of Wasteland No. 13, you will be fine within three days."

"Then everyone will work hard for three days." Jiang Baimian shook the telegram in his hand.

Long Yuehong breathed a sigh of relief at the company's clear explanation.

There was no talk all night, and no one had an accident in the "Old Tune Group".

They returned the previously rented car, rented a utility vehicle from another company, and bought the agreed-upon food.

Along the way, they also painted their group's Jeep back to its original gray-green color.

After finishing these things, the two cars drove into the red giant wolf area one after the other, and went straight to the street that Shang Jian Yao had been to in his dream.

It didn't take long for them to reach their destination and found the low-rise building on the street.

Going up to the fifth floor step by step, Shang Jianyao ran to the door on the right and banged.

This time, he didn't shout "Xiao Chong".

After dozens of seconds, the door creaked open, and what caught the eyes of Shang Jianyao, Long Yuehong and others was a terrifying feline creature with blood-red muscles exposed.

"Meow~" is not An Sleeping Cat, but Shang Jianyao.

He tried to greet each other in his newly learned cat language.

Sleeping Cat gave him a disdainful look and gave way to the interior of the room.

Jiang Baimian glanced at it, saw the big-screen TV, saw the black game console and the corresponding handle, and saw the black-haired boy Xiaochong wearing a yellow suit.

His red schoolbag was next to him.

"Xiao Chong!" Shang Jianyao shouted sincerely, "Have you eaten yet? I brought you some pizza and cream bread, as well as tomatoes and eggs, so you can make tomato scrambled eggs."

Xiaochong hesitated for a few seconds, then pressed pause, then got up reluctantly and said:

"OK."

Gollum, he swallowed.
