318 The Gains This Time Are Not Small

Thinking of this, Yu Xinya could not stand it anymore. She subconsciously turned her head away from Wan Dapeng’s s.h.i.+ning eyes. “Come in first. We’ll talk about the rest later.”

Wan Dapeng agreed. He walked to the car and ordered the people inside to drive into the yard. Du Yue and the others, who were standing at the door, made way for the car. They waited for the car to enter before closing the door.

The four of them followed behind the pickup truck and walked unhurriedly toward the small building. The empty land in the yard was basically planted with crops. Only the land in front of the small building was reserved as a parking lot, which allowed the men and women, old and young, to move around occasionally.

After all, no one could stay in their rooms all the time. There was a path from the open s.p.a.ce to the gate for cars to drive on. The sound of the pickup truck driving through the courtyard was not soft, and it attracted everyone’s attention. As soon as the pickup truck stopped in the open s.p.a.ce in front of the small courtyard, all the men and women, old and young, rushed out of the building and surrounded the car, curiously sticking their heads out to look inside.

Wan Dapeng walked to the front of the crowd and said with a smile, “We’ve gained a lot of things from this trip! This operation can be said to be extremely successful!”

Everyone cheered when they heard Wan Dapeng’s words. After Wan Dapeng finished speaking, he opened the back door and said to the people inside, “Come, move everything down.”

Without Wan Dapeng’s instructions, all the young and strong men in the crowd stepped forward to help, and some old people said to Wan Dapeng, “Dapeng, look at how thin you’ve gotten. You’re suffering. Go back and rest quickly.”

Wan Dapeng smiled.”I’m okay, Ma’am. I’ll go back to rest after moving the things. Don’t worry!”

The young and strong boys came forward unanimously, not letting the people in the car intervene.

Wan Dapeng looked at their busy figures and felt a little helpless. He could only turn around and walk toward Du Yue and Yu Xinya. “Sister Yu…”

Wan Dapeng was halfway through his sentence when Yu Xinya interrupted him, “Tell me about your experience outside.”

Wan Dapeng nodded and straightened his expression. “The new town area in Jingluo is no different from Haidao City. There are ruins everywhere. The places near the base have already been searched thoroughly, and there’s nothing left. However, it’s also because of this that the road has been cleared by the previous scavengers, making it much easier for us to traverse. We didn’t find anything nearby, so we could only go farther away.

“The last place we parked our car was a previously bustling commercial street. The buildings weren’t very tall, and the collapse wasn’t too serious. We cleared the obstacles and rummaged through the ruins.

“Most of what we found were daily necessities, such as bedding and pillows. Although they’re all not in good shape, they can still be used after some sewing. If not, they can still be disa.s.sembled and the cotton inside can be used to make new bedding or cotton clothes. We also found some furniture, such as wooden chairs and tables. Most of them can still be used after some repairs. Those that can’t be used can also be used as firewood.

“We probably don’t need the anti-theft door and windows, but we can sell them to the recycling station. I think those things should be worth some money.” Wan Dapeng suddenly stopped and smiled at Yu Xinya with a mysterious expression. It was obvious that he was hoping that Du Yue and the other two would question him. However, none of the three of them said a word. Wan Dapeng coughed awkwardly and continued, “I also found many bottles of things. I think they should be skincare products that you women use.”

Yu Xinya rolled her eyes at him. Wan Dapeng had kept her in suspense for a while, and she thought that he had gotten something good. She did not expect it to be this. At a time like this, who still had the mood to care about their skin?

“Sister Yu, I know you’re not interested in these things, but I think there must be a lot of women in the base who are interested in them.”

Du Yue thought so too. She nodded. “That’s right. Now that everyone’s life is gradually getting on the right track, there’ll definitely be some people who want a higher quality of life once their food, shelter, and transportation are ensured. If you really got skincare products, I think they can be sold for a good price.”
