Sequence Highway Survival: I Upgrade Supplies in the Apocalypse Chapter 12

Soon, Chen Ye understood this convoy's survival rules.

In this convoy, ordinary people still made up the majority.

But ordinary people had limited capabilities and simply couldn't acquire good supplies, so it was difficult to get quality items from them.

The only trading partners available were these few Sequence Superpower users before him.

The convoy leader was naturally Chu Che of the Pathfinder Sequence.

Superhumans of this sequence were natural leaders.

The convoy's management was quite loose, much like Chu Che himself.

Chu Che had only one requirement for managing the convoy: fairness.

Whether it was Chu Che himself or the most ordinary person in the convoy, anyone wanting supplies had to either go out and find them themselves or offer equivalent items in exchange.

Chen Ye had no objections to this.

In the context of the apocalypse, it was already quite rare for someone to uphold the principle of fairness.

It seemed to welcome Chen Ye, this newly joined Sequence Superpower user.

Chu Che, Nana, and the still-recovering big guy held a small supplies exchange gathering.

Many people had escaped from Xinghua Town yesterday, and these individuals had acquired some supplies to varying degrees.

This trading event today happened to maximize benefits for everyone.

The trading event had no special rules—as long as both parties were willing, it was allowed.

The entire trading event was scheduled for two hours.

After two hours, they absolutely had to hit the road.

For survivors who had been in a constant state of tension, this trading event was undoubtedly like spring rain, and many people showed rare smiles on their faces.

The trunks of several off-road vehicles were all opened.

People from the vehicles took out all the supplies from their trunks and displayed them.

Chen Ye also took out the supplies from his motorcycle and displayed them.

Of course, Chen Ye naturally wouldn't exchange items like cigarettes.

In the convoy, excluding Chen Ye's motor tricycle and several motorcycles and bicycles.

There were four four-wheeled vehicles in total.

Two modified off-road vehicles, one bus, and one small car.

The two modified off-road vehicles belonged to Chu Che and Nana respectively.

That bus was the property of the still-recovering Titan Sequence big guy.

As for the remaining small car, it surprisingly belonged to the legendary female celebrity in this convoy.

Chen Ye also saw this female celebrity.

A woman in her early twenties, wearing simple jeans, a white shirt on top, with long hair that was very well-maintained.

Her delicate facial features made her look beautiful and pleasant even without much makeup.

She looked somewhat familiar, but Chen Ye couldn't recall her name.

"Hello, Zhou Lan, nice to meet you!"

Only when the woman before him mentioned her name did Chen Ye suddenly realize.

"Chen Ye, I've seen your work, it's very good!"

"Thank you, I heard you have some women's clothing, could I take a look?"

The trunks of both off-road vehicles and the small car were all opened.

Chu Che's trunk contained some expired biscuits and cola, occupying almost half of the trunk space.

No need to worry about hunger in the short term.

Chen Ye even found something he had wanted for a long time in Chu Che's trunk.

A foldable solar charging panel.

This kind of thing was usually essential equipment for hiking enthusiasts who liked venturing into mountains and forests.

When phones and cameras ran out of battery, they could use the solar charging panel to recharge.

If this fell into Chen Ye's hands and was upgraded, it could even be used as an energy source for electric vehicles.

Unfortunately, what Chen Ye needed now wasn't electricity, but gasoline.

Chen Ye also found quite a lot of clothing in Chu Che's trunk, including windbreakers, fleece jackets, and quick-dry clothes.

Clearly these were specifically collected—in this current apocalyptic situation, these types of clothing were the most suitable.

He also found two large barrels of gasoline.

Chen Ye also discovered some strange animal furs in Chu Che's trunk.

One blood-red hide particularly caught Chen Ye's attention.

"This hide was found when escaping from Jiangcheng earlier, I don't know its specific use, but if you're interested I can give you a cheaper price."

"Just give me that bag of rice you have."

Unexpectedly, Chu Che had his eyes on Chen Ye's bag of rice.

Trading a bag of rice for a completely unknown hide was simply impossible.

Chen Ye politely declined.

"Tch, stingy! How about giving me two cartons of Huazi cigarettes then!"

"..."

Because of Chu Che's outrageous demands, Chen Ye didn't think highly of this greedy leader.

"Stingy!"

"How do you want to exchange for that gasoline?"

Chen Ye pointed at Chu Che's two large barrels of gasoline and asked.

Chu Che rubbed his chin and said, "One case of instant noodles, ten Snickers bars, five jin of rice!"

Chen Ye thought about it and decided to look around more.

After all, Chu Che wasn't the only one who had gasoline.

Chen Ye came to the young woman Nana's trunk.

The off-road vehicle's trunk was large, but at least a small half of it was filled with various types of clothing.

The food was also various snacks, mainly instant noodles.

There were also several bags of well-packaged cured meat, though it was unknown if they were expired.

And several handheld gaming consoles.

"Chen Ye, these handheld consoles are all the latest models, how about it, do you want them? I can give you a cheaper price, just give me that bag of flour you have."

Chen Ye had no interest in handheld consoles—it was the apocalypse now, who had time to play with such things.

Inside the vehicle compartment were also several knives, both long and short blades.

"These knives were all found by me in a villa before."

"How about it, if you want them, I can give you a cheaper price, that long knife for ten jin of flour, what do you think?"

When Nana saw Chen Ye looking at the long knife, she couldn't help but introduce it.

"Ten jin? Why don't you just rob me?"

"How do you want to exchange for that gasoline?"

"Twenty jin of rice!"

Chen Ye: "..."

Finally came the bus's supply space.

The bus had the most supplies.

Because these supplies didn't just belong to the big guy—many also belonged to other people on the bus.

Many people were browsing around the bus's stall.

This stall didn't just have various foods—there were even quite a few rare beef and fish cans.

Baseball bats, instant noodles, underwear, toilet paper, and even several Fruit-brand laptops.

There was even a whole box of Fruit-brand phones.

Chen Ye even saw an outdoor power bank, the kind specifically designed for camping equipment with capacity for two kilowatt-hours.

Chen Ye had seen this kind of power bank before—good ones cost over ten thousand, while cheaper ones were several thousand.

But in this apocalypse, even charging had become problematic, so such high-capacity power banks could only be considered decorations.

There were also several rice cookers and microwave ovens.

Chen Ye did indeed see something he wanted.

It was a set of repair tools, including screwdrivers, socket bits, wrenches, and screwdrivers.

When upgrading the motor tricycle before, not having tools to disassemble parts had caused the system to spend many extra Slaughter Points.

Now that he was recognized as having the Mechanic Sequence, how could he not have a set of repair tools?

"Mr. Chen, are you interested in this set of repair tools?"

"Mr. Chen has the Mechanic Sequence, if you could have this set of repair tools, it would definitely double your efficiency with half the effort."

"Mr. Chen, if you want it, we can give you a cheaper price!"

A balding man in his thirties with glasses said with a somewhat ingratiating smile.

Chen Ye thought for a moment and asked, "How do you plan to exchange it?"

"Ten jin of rice, or two cases of instant noodles! How about that?"
