Chapter 37 The Poison Brought by Li Meier
"That's just one of the things I came up with!" Li Meier smiled lightly, not feeling embarrassed at all, after Zhao Hai guessed the reason she came to see him.
"Oh? Miss Li, do you know that Chen Wen paid a pound of rice to get this information from me? I wonder what you can offer, Miss Li?" Zhao Hai looked at Li Meier with a half-smile.
"Zhao Hai, you've already become a sequence transcendent and have no shortage of resources, so why can't you tell me for free?" Li Meier said to Zhao Hai in a slightly coquettish tone.
"Then Miss Li, you should go ask Chen Wen! If you want free information from me, try thinking about it more before you go to sleep at night. Maybe you'll even dream that you've successfully awakened your extraordinary sequence and then chased after the monster and slaughtered it all." Zhao Hai sneered.
Just kidding, you think you can get information for free from me? There's no such thing as a free lunch!
Back then, he had to sacrifice countless cigarettes to get information from Chen Zhifu.
Faced with Zhao Hai's sarcasm and ridicule, Li Meier was not angry. She knew Zhao Hai quite well and knew that trying to get something for free from him was simply wishful thinking!
However, why not give it a try? He has now become a superhuman. If he doesn't care about those supplies and just tells them the news, they can save some supplies.
"Half a pack of instant noodles?" Li Meier asked tentatively.
"Okay!" Zhao Hai nodded.
He has no shortage of supplies now and is too lazy to waste his breath haggling with Li Meier.
Immediately afterwards, Zhao Hai also told Li Meier and her sister the same story he and Chen Wen had told each other.
Knowing Zhao Hai's method of awakening, even though she had prepared herself, she still couldn't help feeling disappointed.
"Miss Li, is there anything else you'd like to do on the side?"
"Zhao Hai, did you hear today that Uncle Fu is going to exchange supplies for smuggled drugs?"
"Know!"
"If I'm not mistaken, Zhao Hai, the sequence you awakened is related to poison, right?" Li Meier said confidently.
"Oh? Miss Li is really clever! But I'm still a little curious, Miss Li, how did you guess that?"
"Zhao Hai, if you want to know, shouldn't you pay some reward?" Li Meier said with a touch of arrogance.
"Say it or don't, it's up to you!" Zhao Hai said nonchalantly.
He didn't care at all how Li Meier guessed that his extraordinary sequence was related to poison, and even if he knew, it wouldn't do him any good.
However, it must be said that Li Meier is indeed quite intelligent.
Otherwise, with her and her sister being such delicate beauties, if they weren't smart, they would have been taken advantage of by some perverts long ago.
"So, in that case, Zhao Hai, you actually need those poisons."
"Indeed, you came all this way to see me. Could it be that you have poison in your possession?"
"Hehe, we just happened to come across an agricultural supply store while we were scavenging for supplies on the edge of town!"
"An agricultural supply store?" Zhao Hai's voice rose a few decibels.
Agricultural supply stores are those shops in towns that sell things like vegetable seeds and seedlings.
Agricultural supply stores sell not only seeds and seedlings, but also pesticides and wood ash.
Both pesticides and wood ash contain toxins, which is exactly what Zhao Hai needs.
"What did you bring out of the agricultural supply store?" Zhao Hai asked, a hint of anticipation in his eyes.
"We brought out three bottles of pesticide and two packets of wood ash from inside. I wonder if Zhao Hai would be interested in these?" Li Meier winked at Zhao Hai, feigning ignorance.
"Name your price, Miss Li. Instant noodles? Rice? Drinks? Or other supplies?" Zhao Hai asked directly.
"Zhao Hai, what if I say I don't want the supplies?"
"Oh? What do you want?" Zhao Hai asked.
"I want a promise from Zhao Hai!"
"promise?"
"That's right, I would like to ask Zhao Hai to promise me that if my sister and I are ever in danger, I would like to ask Zhao Hai to save us!" Li Meier said with a serious expression.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Hai understood why Li Meier didn't want his supplies anymore; it turned out she had this idea.
"Ha! Miss Li, don't you think your idea is a bit too far-fetched? You think you can get a promise from me in exchange for just some poison? Do you really think my promise is so worthless?" Zhao Hai mocked.
He wanted the drugs, but he was really dreaming if this woman thought she could get a promise from him with just those things.
Zhao Hai wanted the things in her hands, but he didn't necessarily have to have them.
"Zhao Hai, since you're collecting poisons, it means the more poisons you get, the stronger you'll become, right? Are you sure you don't need these poisons?"
"No! You're wrong. Although my ability is related to poison, it doesn't necessarily require poison. Besides, you're not a superhuman, so you wouldn't understand!" Although Li Meier had guessed some of her abilities, Zhao Hai didn't admit it.
"Besides me, I doubt anyone else in the entire convoy would want what you have. In that case, what you have is practically worthless," Zhao Hai said calmly.
"Then what supplies can you give us, Zhao Hai?" Knowing that Zhao Hai wouldn't agree, Li Meier asked.
Zhao Hai is right. Apart from Zhao Hai, who would want the pesticides she has, no one else in the convoy would want them. They would rather exchange them for supplies with Zhao Hai.
Now that Zhao Hai is a superhuman, she cannot offer supplies on her own initiative, otherwise it might displease Zhao Hai.
She could only ask Zhao Hai to add some more supplies on top of the price increase.
This is the unequal trade resulting from the disparity in status between the two parties! In the apocalypse, might makes right!
If she recklessly raises the price, and someone kills the two sisters and steals their things, no one will stand up for them; they might even say Zhao Hai did a good thing!
This is what the extraordinary are like! This is the end times!
Zhao Hai was about to speak when he suddenly remembered something.
"How about this? I won't give you any supplies! I know you also have a crossbow, and it's the same model as mine. I'll give you a bolt, how about that?"
"Crossbows?" Li Meier asked, somewhat puzzled.
"Hmm! The crossbow bolts I gave you are different from your ordinary crossbow bolts! My crossbow bolts have been enhanced with my extraordinary power, and they are also effective against strange phenomena."
"If it were an ordinary person, even a minor scratch would kill them in less than a minute!" Zhao Hai explained patiently, a rare occurrence for him.
