Sequence Highway Survival: I Upgrade Supplies in the Apocalypse-Chapter 43: Distribution of Supplies

Chapter 43

Chen Ye received two cartons of Huazi cigarettes, two cartons of Ta cigarettes, plus several boxes of Qunzi and other cigarette brands.
He also got two bottles of baijiu, along with two jars of Lao Gan Ma and various seasonings like oil, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar.
The other people received similar amounts of supplies, though the two cartons of Huazi were prioritized for Chen Ye.
Chen Ye had no dissatisfaction with this arrangement.
It had been agreed earlier that he would get twenty percent, and Chen Ye accepted this distribution method.
If he ran out of cigarettes later, he could always trade with Captain Chu and the others.
Among the four Sequence Superpower users in the convoy, Chen Ye was actually the only one who smoked.
But tobacco and alcohol were hard currencies - even if you didn't use them yourself, you could trade them for other supplies with people.
According to Chu Che, there were many such convoys in the apocalypse.
When they encountered other convoys, they might be able to trade for some good items.
"Chen Ye, when you run out of cigarettes, come trade with me! As teammates, I'll give you a good deal!"
The long-legged girl waved the carton of Lotus cigarettes in her hand and giggled.
"That works for me. I just hope Sister Na will go easy on me when the time comes!"
"Giggle..."
The girl seemed to really like Chen Ye's form of address, laughing brightly as her black hair glowed in the apocalyptic sunset.
Next came Nana's backpack.
Nana's backpack was noticeably larger than Chen Ye's two backpacks combined.
Even though her Sequence wasn't focused on physical attributes, the long-legged girl's physical fitness still far surpassed ordinary people.
The backpack on the girl's back was about 90 liters - the kind that serious outdoor hiking enthusiasts would buy, costing at least several thousand yuan even before the apocalypse.
Chen Ye had been interested in hiking for a while.
So he had some understanding of what a 90-liter backpack meant.
Carrying a 90-liter outdoor hiking backpack wouldn't be easy even for a grown man.
But on the long-legged girl's back, it seemed as light as nothing.
Perhaps this was one of the benefits of Sequence Superpowers.
Iron Lion had mentioned that after awakening his Sequence Superpower, his physical fitness had improved significantly in a very short time.
It seemed this benefit wasn't limited to just the Titan Sequence - other Sequences probably had some degree of enhancement too.
The backpack opened, and the long-legged girl grabbed both straps, dumping everything inside directly onto the ground.
The pile formed a small mountain on the ground.
The surrounding survivors gasped with "Wow~~~" sounds of amazement.
The supplies in this backpack were noticeably different from Chen Ye's.
The contents were incredibly diverse - there was everything imaginable.
There were various spicy strips, chicken legs, sandwich cookies and chocolate, even potato chips.
Chen Ye didn't even know what to say about this.
Among survivors who went out to gather supplies, potato chips were the least desirable items - they were the worst value, taking up lots of space while being lightweight, wasting precious capacity.
He never expected the long-legged girl to bring back so many.
There were also many toiletries - toothpaste, shampoo, and similar items.
Even feminine hygiene products.
Chen Ye could understand this - girls loved beauty after all, so packing these things was perfectly reasonable.
Among the surrounding survivors, girls made up the majority, and many of them had shining eyes when they saw these items.
Just like how the male survivors had reacted to the tobacco and alcohol earlier.
The rest consisted of scarce supplies like potatoes, flour, and rice.
These items were clearly found in the cellar of the village chief's large villa.
The long-legged girl wasn't finished yet - she opened another backpack too.
This was the backpack she had been carrying in front, considerably smaller than the 90-liter backpack on her back.
When this backpack opened and its contents were revealed to everyone, people's expressions turned strange.
This backpack was completely filled with beer!
Cans of beer packed the entire backpack.
At a time like this, this crazy woman actually brought back beer while gathering supplies?
It was just...
Understanding dawned in Chen Ye's eyes - so that's how it was.
Each of the four Sequence Superpower users in the convoy had their own quirks.
Chu Che preferred tea, the long-legged Sword Immortal girl liked alcohol, and he himself preferred cigarettes.
He wondered what that big fool liked.
Chu Che's face showed helplessness, clearly already accustomed to Nana's behavior.
The girl's willow-leaf eyebrows furrowed as her beautiful eyes glared the surrounding "tsk" sounds into silence.
"What are you looking at? This lady takes whatever she wants!"
Seeing the girl's fierce expression, the survivors quickly averted their eyes.
"I'm taking this, we'll split the rest!"
The long-legged girl picked out a box of hair dye from the supplies and said with a giggle.
Chen Ye glanced at it but said nothing.
Nana was just a teenage girl after all - if she wanted to change her hair color, nobody would object.
The distribution of the long-legged girl's supplies concluded quickly.
Chen Ye also received four 500ml cans of beer, a bag of rice, over ten pounds of potatoes and corn, plus some shampoo and shower gel.
But having not bathed for about a month already, there was nowhere to use these shampoo and shower gel products.
Just thinking about this made Chen Ye feel uncomfortable all over.
Before the apocalypse, even in winter, Chen Ye bathed every day.
After months without bathing, he felt like he was starting to smell.
As for the beer, Chen Ye had no particular attachment to it, planning to return the carton of Lotus cigarettes to the long-legged girl later.
Old Li, representing Iron Lion, also received many supplies, his face now split into a wide grin.
In the apocalypse, supplies were more important than anything else.
Finally came the massive backpack belonging to the hulking Iron Lion, piled up like a small mountain.
Chen Ye was most interested in the supplies in this backpack.
Back at the small store under the great willow tree, the big guy had used this huge backpack to frantically gather supplies.
The big guy's large hands had swept entire shelves of goods directly into this backpack.
Nearly half of that small store's supplies had ended up in the big guy's backpack.
This backpack clearly wasn't mass-produced - it had probably been custom-made after the apocalypse to help the big guy gather supplies more efficiently.
The backpack surface now showed multiple damaged spots, with many areas covered in dust.
It took three survivors working together to carry the fully loaded massive backpack to the center of the canopy.
Old Bao opened the backpack in front of everyone.
The contents of the bulging backpack were quickly revealed to all.
Compared to Chen Ye and Nana's backpacks, the supplies in this backpack were much more straightforward.
Aside from large quantities of supplies, there was nothing else inside.
There were large packs of instant noodles, plus seven or eight types of dried noodles - round, thick, flat, thin - every variety imaginable.
Just these dried noodles alone could feed one person for a long time.
Chen Ye even spotted several cases of bottled water among the supplies.
Seeing this bottled water, Chen Ye's eyes lit up slightly.
They were in the desert now, where water was just as important as food.
The water they had scavenged from Xinghua Town was almost gone.
This bottled water would solve their urgent need perfectly.
Moreover, the water bottles themselves were valuable commodities in this apocalypse - empty bottles could be used to store water.
If they encountered heavy rain like last night again, these empty bottles would come in handy.
There were also various canned fruits and meats, plus large quantities of potatoes, corn, rice, and flour.
These were likely supplies scavenged from the old village chief's house.
Just these items alone occupied more than half the space.
Captain Chu Che's face finally showed a genuine smile.
Finally, someone who didn't give him headaches.
