Chapter 147: Fishing
Su Yinhe watched him expressionlessly.
Lin Musen coughed twice, “Never mind, never mind, can you make the decision? Don’t double-cross now.”
“I’m not selling anymore.” Su Yinhe’s temper flared.
“Don’t be like that, I’m the boss of this base, if you don’t sell to , no one else is going to buy from this place.” Lin Musen stood tall and proud.
The boss?
Really?
The base’s boss?
Must be an idiot.
Su Yinhe didn’t believe it.
“Don’t doubt it, I really am the boss. Otherwise, ask them.” Lin Musen gestured to the Superpower Users behind him.
These Superpower Users also hesitated not at all in yelling out, “Boss.”
Su Yinhe: “…”
If he really is the boss of this base…
She felt she had co to the wrong place, she shouldn’t have co to this base.
This guy’s an idiot.
If the boss is an idiot, the other people in the base probably aren’t that bright either.
Lin Musen was very different from the leaders she had t at Sun Base.
Those leaders all exuded a keen sense.
Lin Musen…
Seed to radiate foolishness.
He even had dyed hair!
This was the first person Su Yinhe had seen with dyed hair since she ca to this world.
It seed the situation at Apple Base was much better than Sun Base.
There was even soone leisurely enough to dye their hair.
“…”
Su Yinhe was extrely silent.
But Murong, probably slling a kindred spirit, quickly struck up a conversation with Lin Musen.
Before long, the two had exchanged information.
According to Lin Musen, he was indeed the boss of Apple Base. Apple Base was not like Sun Base, which was originally an official base.
Apple Base was established by Lin Musen himself, a private base.
So he was indeed the boss.
Just how Lin Musen, such a silly person, could remain the boss for so long without dying?
Su Yinhe watched Lin Musen, chatting animatedly with Murong, and pondered this question.
His deanor, either it was a façade to lower their guard.
Or, he was truly powerful, and while not smart, his strength compensated for it.
Could soone who built a base single-handedly really be an idiot?
Su Yinhe was starting to lose interest in doing business with him.
It all felt sowhat wrong.
But Lin Musen had already co, and with so many items in the store, of course, he wouldn’t want to miss out.
He had planned to just seize them when he first saw them.
But then he saw what was written on the sign, and figured it wasn’t necessary.
After all, they were just asking for so gold and jewelry, which was practically trash.
In their base, such items were almost as good as garbage, trading trash for goods seed like a great deal.
If he were to just snatch them…
Lin Musen, grinning, glanced over at Chi Yan, who stood by the side, and continued chatting with Murong.
He could see through Murong’s ability; he could take him in a fight, but the man who hadn’t spoken a word, that was uncertain.
Though he had brought many people with him, avoiding trouble was preferable.
For the sake of avoiding so worthless trash, it wasn’t worth injuring his n.
Better swap the trash out first, if there’s none left later, then he might consider taking a grab.
Lin Musen’s mind raced with various thoughts, but on the surface, he acted like a simpleton.
Lin Murong was very interested in his lush green hair, and Lin Musen generously ntioned he had plenty of green hair dye to share if Lin Murong wanted so.
“My base has a hairstylist who’s great at dyeing and even adding extensions…”
Su Yinhe watched them chatting and enjoying themselves, and the corner of her mouth twitched.
Chi Yan tapped her on the shoulder.
She sighed.
Lin Musen talked about airplanes with Lin Murong but hadn’t forgotten his main task, instructing his n to collect various gold ornants from the base.
Gold was quite valuable in the early apocalypse, used as currency within the base.
But the thing is, you couldn’t see the end of the apocalypse.
However valuable gold might be, it wasn’t as good as food.
For the people at Apple Base, gold was just junk; they didn’t outright dispose of it as trash, thanks to their hoarding habit.
It was also because they still held out so hope.
What if one day the apocalypse ended?
The disasters wouldn’t co again.
Humanity could rebuild a new ho, society would stabilize, and gold would circulate once more.
They were afraid they might need gold soday, so they couldn’t bear to throw it away.
As for jewelry, people at Apple Base lived better than those at other bases, at least they weren’t as likely to starve.
If they weren’t worried about food, so beauty-conscious girls still liked wearing jewelry.
The base wasn’t far, so Lin Musen’s n returned quickly.
They carried two large boxes into the supermarket and set them down.
Su Yinhe felt a tremor.
How heavy were these?
When Lin Musen saw his n back, he stopped chatting with Lin Murong.
Excitedly, he opened the boxes, one filled with gold bars, the other with various pieces of jewelry.
Su Yinhe looked at the two boxes, deep in thought.
These boxes were originally filled with these items; they couldn’t have found them at the last minute with such speed.
But nowadays, very few people stockpiled gold or jewelry.
They were…
Lin Musen waved his hand, and his n began conscientiously taking out the gold and jewelry, running to the cash register to exchange them one by one.
The numbers got higher and higher, and Lin Musen’s smile grew wider.
Su Yinhe had intended to help them with the exchange, but seeing the boxes overflowing, she stepped aside in advance.
Let the little robots handle it.
She didn’t want to add to the chaos.
Lin Musen had many n, and there was a lot in the two boxes, so the exchange took a while.
He seed to lose interest in Lin Murong and turned his attention to Su Yinhe, tossing her a green glance.
“Boss, you sure appeared suddenly. Is it a superpower?” he asked tentatively.
“Sort of,” Su Yinhe replied vaguely.
“Ah. I’ve been stuck in the base for so long, I didn’t know this new superpower had erged in the world. But… are you really not here for fishing?” Lin Musen said, staring intently at Su Yinhe’s face, trying to read her expression.
“Tsk. This isn’t the seaside.” Fishing, she hadn’t even tried it.
She wasn’t cut out for fishing.
Previously, she couldn’t afford a fishing rod, other fishing gear, or bait.
Besides, she feared investing too much and catching nothing.
She once accompanied a company president to watch him fish because of business talks.
All that maneuvering, and he only caught a turtle.
Buckets of bait went down.
And in the end, only a turtle.
The president took it ho for his son in kindergarten to keep.
With the money to buy a fishing rod, wouldn’t it be better to just buy so fish from the market?
Lin Musen, hearing her response, didn’t get angry and simply watched them with a grin.
