Infinite Travel: I know a lot of goddesses

Chapter 1029! Barter

……

Although under the influence of the three major laws, the concept of family no longer exists in the lighthouse, let alone relationships such as husband and wife and children, the younger lighthouse people or ordinary people do not even know what these words mean.

However, it is different for scavengers. They are the people who are most likely to come into contact with books and materials that are listed as contraband by the Lighthouse, and they have some understanding of this.

So after hearing Hong Kou's words, especially seeing her say it openly, he was naturally surprised.

Although they were in the Wasteland Hunters' cafeteria, the women all seemed very nervous. Penny even whispered to her, "Shh, keep your voice down, Instructor Hong Kou, don't let anyone hear."

"Hehe, you are so timid. What will you do if you meet someone you like in the future? Just look at him from a distance?" Hong Kou glanced at her and said unhappily.

However, she also knew that such things could only be said in private, so she then talked about today's training arrangements.

But what she didn't notice was that after hearing her words, Penny was stunned for a moment and looked at Shen Ye from time to time, as if she had been inspired by something...

After breakfast, the scavengers went to the training ground in groups of three or four. As they were fully employed, they had to undergo rigorous training every day when they were not tasked with collecting supplies.

"Shen Ye, do you want to go over and take a look together?" When most people in the restaurant had left, Hong Kou stood up and invited him, and the other women also stood up and looked at him.

"I'll go over later." Shen Ye hesitated for a moment and said, "I want to go look somewhere else first."

Compared to watching the scavengers training, he was more curious about the structure of the lighthouse and the lifestyle of the dust people.

Hearing him say this, the Red Bandits didn't insist anymore. They nodded and left.

Shen Ye then left the restaurant, but as soon as he walked out, he met Jingnan.

Jingnan was still dressed the same as yesterday. After seeing Shen Ye, she seemed to be relieved, and her nervous expression became relaxed. Then she walked quickly to him and said, "Why didn't you tell me in advance that you were eating in the Wasteland Hunter Canteen? I was looking for you everywhere!"

"Looking for me? What's the matter?" Shen Ye looked at Jingnan in confusion.

"Of course this is for you!" Jingnan raised his right hand and spread it out in front of him. On his slender and fair little hand was an ID card with his name on it.

"It's just made. Come, let me put it on you." Jingnan said as he took another step forward and put the ID card on his clothes on the right chest.

Shen Ye subconsciously wanted to look down, but Jingnan did not step back after putting the ID card on him, so Shen Ye's action of lowering his head caused the foreheads of the two people with a certain height difference to touch each other.

Fortunately, Shen Ye's action was subconscious and he did not use too much strength. The foreheads of the two people only touched lightly. Otherwise, with his physical strength, a little force would probably have caused Jingnan to have a concussion.

But even so, Shen Ye quickly looked up and asked with concern: "Jingnan, are you okay? I'm sorry, I didn't pay attention."

"No...it's okay." Jingnan covered her forehead with her hands and shook her head gently, but her face turned red in an instant, as if it was burned by the "temperature" of the man's forehead.

As the adopted daughter of City Lord Morgan and a high-ranking official at the Lighthouse, Jingnan understood very well how intimate the two's actions just now were. Those were actions that only lovers would do in the old days.

At this time, Shen Ye also noticed the blush on Jingnan's face. After thinking about it for a while, he understood the reason and couldn't help but teasing: "Jingnan, why is your face red?"

If it were a modern person, they would at least say, "I'm full of energy," but Jingnan obviously had not seen that classic film, so her response was to play ostrich, turning around and not looking at him or saying anything.

Is this shy...

Shrugging his shoulders, Shen Ye also knew the truth about knowing when to stop. After all, the woman in front of him was Jing Nan, not the Light Bearer… Then he said, “Thank you for sending me the ID card, but now that you’re here, what about the navigation control room?”

Jingnan was a smart woman. She knew Shen Ye was deliberately changing the subject. After taking a deep breath to calm her pounding heart, she whispered, "We just harvested a large amount of supplies yesterday. Now the lighthouse's navigation route no longer requires human control. It's all controlled by the central main system."

"So, you are free now?" Shen Ye continued to ask.

"Yeah!" Jingnan nodded with his back to her.

"Can I ask you a favor?"

"Of course." Jingnan didn't ask anything, but agreed directly.

Shen Ye was stunned for a moment, then asked curiously: "Aren't you going to ask me what I want you to do?"

"Okay then, tell me what you want me to do." Jingnan turned around and gave him a blank look, the blush still on her face.

Shen Ye straightened up, looked around, and said, "Take me to the Dust People District."

……

The living area of the dust people on the lighthouse is also a very special place, similar to the low-caste gathering area in a certain country in reality. The dust people living here enjoy almost no rights, including the most important right to reproduce, so in the eyes of some upper people, they are not even called human beings.

However, since most of the upper class look down on the common people, except for the priests of the lighthouse and the city defense forces, the upper class will hardly set foot here. Therefore, although the living conditions of the common people here are average, at times, this place is actually freer than the upper class living area, and even shops have appeared.

After all, the people can also earn contribution points through work, and they will use the contribution points to exchange for raw materials to make simple food for sale.

Before entering the living area of the dust people, in order to avoid trouble, Jingnan went back to her room and changed into casual clothes, a plain dress. Fortunately, she was not like Mark, who usually showed her face in front of the dust people, so she did not cover her face with a scarf when she went to the living area of the dust people like Mark did in the original plot.

Not long after, the two men walked side by side along the circular road outside the Dust People's living area. The two men, dressed in casual clothes and without their ID cards, did not attract the Dust People's attention.

At this time, Shen Ye noticed a simple stall on the side of the road. He looked up and found that it was a stall selling jelly. He immediately remembered the aunt selling jelly in Mark's memory in the original plot.

Unfortunately, more than ten years had passed, and the person at the stall had become a middle-aged woman. She seemed to have noticed his gaze and greeted him enthusiastically: "Would you like to try some jelly?"

"Okay!" Shen Ye nodded, then pulled Jingnan over.

Jingnan, whose wrist was grabbed by him, became extremely stiff at this moment, and was pulled to sit in front of the stall like a puppet.

"Two servings of jelly, please." Shen Ye held up two fingers and gestured, then took out a handful of candy and placed it on the table. "Can I pay with this?"

In fact, the most primitive barter can work everywhere, especially in an environment like the end of the world.

"Of course...you can." The middle-aged woman looked at the handful of candy and was stunned for a moment. After all, candy was a rare thing for ordinary people.
