The current situation.
Not only was there a flood, but it was also winter.
Today's winter was especially cold.
The temperature dropped to almost zero.
The torrential rain and floods caused the humidity in this area to be higher than usual.
It was wet and cold!
Only the larger cabins had heating facilities.
Smaller boats could only rely on clothes and quilts to keep warm.
Moreover, most people would only bring food or something after the flood.
There was only a set of clothes.
When he arrived here, he was almost completely drenched.
In this weather, they could only exchange for new clothes.
Moreover, there were more sources of clothing than food.
For example, when Jiang Fan was searching Hengyang County City, he had very little food, but he had plenty of quilts and clothes.
As a result, most people bought and sold clothes.
Some specialized in this kind of business.
As for food…
There were very few people selling, but many people buying.
Jiang Fan only saw two people selling.
There was already a long queue in front of their stall.
The trading area wasn't something that could be entered casually.
At the entrance.
Four burly men with iron bars in their hands stood there, staring at the people who came in and out.
There was a lot of traffic here.
He didn't recognize Jiang Fan as a newcomer.
They only glanced at Jiang Fan before looking elsewhere.
They didn't care about Jiang Fan who was alone.
They entered the trading area.
The place was small and there were too many people.
It could be described as rubbing shoulders and heels.
Jiang Fan squeezed inside and could see more clearly.
They sold all kinds of things.
Someone was selling burnt wood.
There was also wood that had just been cut down from the mountain next to them to be used to make ships.
There was a shop selling towels.
There were frying pans.
There were also shops selling salt.
……
It was a dazzling sight.
They were all materials needed for survival.
Usually, these things were not very valuable, but now they had become the most popular here.
Jiang Fan walked past the crowd and arrived at the back.
There were a lot fewer people here.
There were also fewer stalls.
Only seven or eight people were doing business.
Jiang Fan glanced at their stall.
The items sold were much more luxurious than the ones before.
The nearest stall sold toothbrushes, toothpaste, and other toiletries.
Unfortunately, most people only rinsed their mouths with water at this time.
How could he be willing to use resources to exchange for these things?
There were only a few customers in front of the stall.
The stall at the back was selling frozen mutton!
Logically speaking, there shouldn't be a lack of food.
However, there were very few customers at this stall.
Meat was much more expensive than rice.
Ten catties of rice could only be exchanged for one catty of pork!
The price of mutton was even more expensive.
Meat had become a real luxury at this time.
If they had supplies, they would exchange them for rice, flour, and so on. Not many people would exchange them for meat.
Jiang Fan even saw someone selling knives.
It was mainly kitchen knives and hatchets.
Moreover, they were all worn out and looked like they had been used for a long time.
The price was extremely high.
These knives were not only used for chopping wood and cooking, but also for self-protection.
At this time, the order was still normal.
Very few people would take the risk and commit crimes.
If another month had passed…
The situation was different.
After taking a few steps.
Jiang Fan saw something that piqued his interest.
A stall with eggs and a carton of milk!
Jiang Fan stopped in his tracks.
These two were the best food to replenish the body's nutrients!
Usually, it was a necessity for every household.
Now, because it was difficult to reproduce, it had become a luxury item!
Fewer people bought it.
Jiang Fan took a few glances at the eggs and milk to make sure that they hadn't gone bad. He asked,""Boss, how much are these eggs and milk?”
The boss glanced at Jiang Fan and replied,""The price of eggs and milk is the same. One catty for five catties of rice.”
It was equivalent to half the price of pork!
No wonder no one cared about it.
Jiang Fan felt that the price was reasonable. He nodded and waved his hand."Pack it up. I want all of these.”
"I…want them all."
The boss's eyes instantly widened as he looked at Jiang Fan in disbelief.
He didn't have a lot of eggs and milk here, but it was still quite a lot.
In total, it weighed at least ten catties.
In other words, it was equivalent to five to six catties of pork.
Fifty to sixty catties of rice!
This was a huge sum of money.
There were not many that could be taken out in the trading area.
"Pack it up."
Jiang Fan smiled and took out the item he had prepared beforehand.
The chicken drumsticks, wings, biscuits, and other items he had obtained from Boulder High School.
With so much mutant meat, Jiang Fan didn't want to eat these things at all.
It was perfect for trading.
The stall owner was pleasantly surprised.
He looked at Jiang Fan again.
He had never thought that this young man would be so wealthy.
The transaction was quickly completed.
The stall owner quickly put the chicken drumsticks, wings, and other items into a plastic bag and stuffed them into his arms.
She looked around warily and saw that no one was paying attention to her. She lowered her voice and whispered into Jiang Fan's ear,""I still have good things here. Do you want them?”
"Good stuff? What good stuff?"
Jiang Fan glanced at the stall owner.
The stall owner took out an old snakeskin bag from behind him.
The snakeskin was bulging, and it was unknown what it was holding.
The stall owner used his body to block the snakeskin bag and looked around warily before carefully opening it.
She opened it and quickly closed it.
Jiang Fan had already seen it clearly.
There was actually a potted plant inside.
The potted plant was not a flower, but a tomato.
There were a few red tomatoes hanging on the plant.
Tomato scrambled eggs?
Jiang Fan suddenly thought that he might be able to eat this dish again.
