313 Everyone Must Return Unscathed

The ruins near the base had been almost completely turned over. If they went farther away, they might not even be able to come back in three or five days, let alone on the same day. No one knew if they could pick up anything that could be sold for money on this trip. In order to save gas, many scavengers would go out and earn back their gas money no matter what. They would stay outside for almost half a month. Wan Dapeng and the others were new to the base, and they might not even be able to tell the direction after leaving the base. Everything else was fine except for food, water, and weapons for self-defense. They had to bring as much as they could!

Wan Dapeng’s voice came out of the walkie-talkie again, but this time more calmly. “Okay, don’t worry. We’ll prepare some more supplies to bring with us. My brother, I have something else to tell you. I want to take the gun you gave me last time,” Wan Dapeng said in a serious tone, but He Xing did not think it was a big deal.

He laughed when he heard this. “Big Brother Wan, since the gun was given to you, it’s yours. You can use it as you like. You don’t need to inform me about it. By the way, there are not many bullets in the gun. I’ll send you some bullets now!”

“Don’t bother, I’ll go to your place to get them later!”

“Alright, I’ll wait for you!” The walkie-talkie quieted down again. He Xing put it aside and turned to Du Yue. “Do you believe that Brother Wan won’t come empty-handed when he comes to get the bullets?”

After knowing Wan Dapeng for so long, they knew his personality and style very well. “It’s fine. No matter what he brings, we’ll just accept it.” They did not like to take advantage of others. Since Wan Dapeng was not willing to take their bullets for free, Du Yue and He Xing would not force him.

Soon, Wan Dapeng and Yu Xinya came over. Wan Dapeng was holding a big black plastic bag in his hand, which was full of seafood. Just by looking at it, they knew that there were many things in the bag. Du Yue gauged that the big bag of seafood was at least ten catties.

Wan Dapeng put the bag on the ground and opened it for Du Yue and He Xing to see. “I don’t know the price of bullets…”

Without waiting for Wan Dapeng to continue, He Xing took out the box that he had just prepared and handed it to Wan Dapeng. “There are 60 bullets in the box.”

“60 bullets?!” Wan Dapeng was a little surprised. “You don’t have to give me so many…”

Even though he had never bought bullets before, he knew that they were rare. He had only brought a small bag of seafood, yet He Xing had given him so many bullets. He was really embarrassed to take them.

Yu Xinya also said, “We can’t accept so many…”

“Why not?” He Xing looked at the two of them. “It’s fine if you’re in the base, but there are too many unknown dangers outside. The more bullets you have, the safer you’ll be. Quickly accept the bullets. Don’t be polite with us at this time.”

In fact, even without He Xing’s reminder, they both knew that the more weapons they had, the better it would be. Therefore, neither Yu Xinya nor Wan Dapeng could find any excuse to refute. Wan Dapeng and Yu Xinya looked at each other and finally accepted the box. “Okay, then we won’t be polite with you.”

After knowing each other for so long, the bond between them had become deeper and deeper. If they had to calculate everything clearly, it would not be so simple anymore. Since that was the case, they might as well forget about it. This time, Wan Dapeng would definitely lead the rest of the team to look for supplies. If they could find anything good, he planned to give some to Du Yue and He Xing.

Seeing Wan Dapeng put the bullets away, Du Yue asked, “Brother Wan, how many people are there in Sunshine Team?”

“Other than me, there are nine people, all of whom are strong men. I’ve discussed this with the chief. We’ll try not to let women do this kind of dirty, tiring, and dangerous work.”

Wan Dapeng’s and Yu Xinya’s decision was also to protect the women in the courtyard. In fact, there was an unwritten rule in the small courtyard. The men did the dirty work, and the women were responsible for the cooking and washing.

Yu Xinya said, “As the team leader, you must be very careful. After all, this city is unfamiliar to all of us. Regardless of whether you can pick up anything useful, you can’t stay outside for too long. I want to see all of you return unscathed within ten days. Dapeng, can you do it?”
