The treasury inside was empty, as if it had been relocated in advance."
Xu Xiang looked at Wang Hao curiously: "You broke through the outer gate, why didn’t you break in and take a look inside?"
"I was about to, but didn’t I receive your SOS?"
Wang Hao said without a hint of embarrassnt or breathlessness.
"Oh! Fine then!"
Xu Xiang shrugged and continued:
"We also found a big freezer on their cafeteria side, packed with frozen at, seafood, and the like.
These bastards, I suspect they were already running experints there secretly before the apocalypse, the stockpile is just too abundant."
"Before the apocalypse? Impossible, right? Could they really conduct experints under the governnt’s nose?"
Wang Hao found it hard to believe.
Building that secret base requires manpower and resources.
Even though this area is sparsely populated, the movent of materials shouldn’t have been able to escape the governnt’s notice.
"Heh."
Xu Xiang chuckled: "Maybe not unnoticed, but they managed sohow, right!"
"Uh...."
Wang Hao blinked his eyes, beginning to understand.
"We also got our hands on a huge batch of various dicinal materials and drugs, these are all precious and quite valuable.
Plus so high-precision instrunts and the like."
Xu Xiang continued.
They aren’t really short on food.
Different from Su Jing over there, there’s plenty of grain here, and lots of food processing plants too.
dicines and various high-end precision instrunts are what they’re lacking.
"I won’t take any dicines or instrunts, I’ll just need experts and food. I have a large population over there, food is a bit tight, and I need a large supply."
Wang Hao said calmly.
"Oh?"
An unexpected look flashed in Xu Xiang’s eyes.
He and Chen Lingxue had analyzed that Wang Hao would probably choose sothing like drugs, precision instrunts, or portable things like Crystal Stones.
After all, it’s 400 kiloters to his gathering place, not counting detours.
He ca here to act as a lobbyist.
After all, it wasn’t convenient for Chen Lingxue to co over; given her relationship with Wang Hao.
If she asked, Wang Hao would definitely agree.
But that would be a bit improper.
"Why? You thought I would want dicines or sothing?"
Wang Hao seed to see through everything and chuckled:
"We don’t lack those things over there; our science, education, culture, and health sectors are quite strong, and I’m in the city, so we don’t lack drugs and precision machines."
"Uh..."
Xu Xiang admitted, genuinely envious!
Wang Hao envied them for their food, they envied Wang Hao for having dicines and various advanced instrunts.
"I also brought a batch of common drugs this ti, which I can exchange for food, and if you have an abundance of resources, I can pay in crystals."
This ti, Wang Hao aid to do sothing big in one go!
He needed to transport a large amount of resources back.
He had thirty thousand mouths waiting to be fed back there.
One pound per person ans thirty thousand pounds a day!
So the resources from the secret base alone weren’t enough; he also needed to buy so from Xu Xiang and Chen Lingxue.
He didn’t want to make another trip after this.
"Haha, no problem! Do you want sweet potatoes and corn?"
Xu Xiang laughed heartily.
"Yes! Anything edible is fine."
"Then there’s no problem."
Xu Xiang and Wang Hao started discussing the details.
This is the benefit of trade, and the necessity of rchants.
What’s available in the east may not be in the west, and through trade, both parties can get what they need, allowing things to move smoothly.
From town to town, nation to nation, trade is essential.
Even in an apocalyptic world, trade is very much needed.
Trade what you have in abundance for what you lack but others have in surplus.
Unfortunately!
Now, the lack of developed transportation is limiting the growth of trade.
