Transmigrated into Another Apocalyptic World (BL)

Chapter 69: Going to the trade market



After sitting for a while, Luciel and Treyton went to the market accompanied by Zam as their guard and guide.

The three kids also wanted to go with them, but Luciel refused to take them. It's better for them to stay in their accommodation and study than to roam around the settlement.

It's already obvious that everything was still chaotic outside, so it's better not to bring the children out.

Everything is just beginning to be established, so the established doesn't even have complete rules and regulations.

Well, one of the leading factions was a crook, so even if there were rules and regulations, it wouldn't make a difference with such a leader who was leading the others to be as crooked as himself.

When they arrived at the trade market, Zam said Luciel could see a lot of people with miscellaneous things in front of them.

Some were simply spread on the ground, while others put their goods on the ground.

It really wasn't a big market, as most people only had a few things on display.

Other people were also carrying some things with them and trading them with others with the goods that they needed.

Luciel also heard a lot of people refusing to trade with others because they don't need the things they want to trade in their goods.

He saw that most of the signs displayed in front of the goods wanted to exchange their goods for food or water.

The things displayed in the trade market were really mixed.

He saw some people selling beds and others.

Some displayed clothes.

Some displayed watches, jewelry and other luxury goods.

Some people simply displayed all the things they currently didn't need like hair blowers, computers, books, hair accessories and other things.

"Do you want to check what kind of books they are selling?" Treyton as soon as he noticed that he was looking at the table that was displaying a lot of books on his table.

"Yeah, let's go and see what they are selling."

When they arrived in front of the table, Luciel immediately looked through the books that were on the table.

He saw that most of the books in it were actually reviewers for a lot of professional courses.

The other books were all related to other professional courses for students.

"It's a pity that there aren't any comics or entertainment books in it," Luciel said in regret.

"Well, let's just get them for your cousin. He seemed to be getting depressed because he couldn't study or read educational books," Luciel said.

Calvin was already a silent type of person to begin with, but now he was becoming more silent. His reading speed was really fast, as he had already read all the educational books he had and even the things they got in the way.

He even read the paper that Jasmine was writing about her findings about their current situation, but he really read everything fast.

He was only talking more when he was teaching the three kids and answering their questions. Unlike other geniuses who often couldn't really teach others, Calvin was good at teaching, so the three kids also liked him very much and also pestered him around.

If the kids weren't around, he might just stay in the corner and stay silent most of the time while training his superpowers.

"He's reading books too quickly; that's why he doesn't have anymore books to read," Treyton said, but he still asked the price of the books, "How many bottles of water do you want to exchange these books for?"

The person who was trading books asked, "You are really going to get them?"

It seemed that the owner of the books was stunned because someone even bothered to buy books at this time.

"Yes, we will take these books; how much do you want to exchange them for?" Treyton said again.

It was only stated on the paper that he would exchange it for water, but it doesn't specify how many milliliters he would exchange for one book.

"I-I'll exchange 5 books for 1 liter of water," the seller said with some hesitation.

"Ok, we will take all of these books," Treyton said without haggling for the price.

"Really? Thank you!" The seller said with gratitude.

It seemed that he wasn't sure if the books he was selling would even be exchanged for something because a lot of people don't care for books in such a time when their survival couldn't even be guaranteed.

There were 15 books in front in total, so Zam brought out 3 liters of water. They had already prepared a lot of water because Zam already explained that most of the people wanted to exchange their goods for water.

"I-I also have a lot of such books downloaded on my work phone. I can give it to you guys for free. If you still have a power bank, you guys could still read it," the seller said and gave his mobile phone to them.

"Thanks," Treyton said and handed 4 liters of water to the seller instead of just giving three.

After leaving the book seller, they went to the table with a lot of gadgets on display.

Unlike the person displaying books, the person displaying a lot of gadgets on his table was very enthusiastic.

"Hello! What are you guys looking for? Pick any thing you like here, any piece for 500 mL of water!

I preserved those things carefully! There's no damage to them at all.

Unfortunately, I don't have a power bank or generator to prove that all of them are working properly. But rest assured that all of them are really working properly!

If they aren't working properly after you tried them, you can come back to me, and I can repair them for you!"

"Really? You even know how to repair them?" Luciel asked while looking at the enthusiastic middle-aged man in front of them.

"Don't underestimate me; I worked at Asung Tech Company for 10 years!" the seller boasted.
