Chapter 351 Give Yu Xinya Phones
Electronic products could not be used to fill their stomachs or be exchanged for supplies. If she had not come to the official base, she would not have had the chance to use a phone at all. It was normal for Yu Xinya and the others not to bring their phones along. It did not matter if they did not have any as Du Yue did! “Sister Yu, you don’t have to worry about phones. We have some here. A few years ago, we found a mobile phone shop in the ruins. We picked up all the mobile phones and tablets that we could use and kept them with us.
“He Xing and I don’t need so many phones, so we can lend you a few.”
Yu Xinya, who was on the other end of the walkie-talkie, laughed in surprise when she heard this. “You guys have really helped us a lot! Thank you so much, Sister! However, we can’t use your things for free. We still have to give you money. I just don’t know what the market price of a cell phone is now.”
Not to mention Yu Xinya, even Du Yue herself did not know what the current market price was. “There’s no hurry, Sister Yu. Let’s just wait for the sandstorm to pass, then we’ll go out and ask about the price. You can always pay me later on!” Du Yue was not lacking in contribution points from Xinya, but she knew that if she did not accept her money, Xinya would not accept the phones with peace of mind.
Yu Xinya got out of the car in front, got into Du Yue’s car, and followed them back to the mobile house. Du Yue took out three mobile phones and three tablets from the bedroom and handed them to Yu Xinya. With Yu Xinya’s identity card, she connected one of the mobile phones to the internet. Yu Xinya was not even 40 years old, so she was very familiar with these electronic products.
“Then I’ll be leaving first.” Yu Xinya stuffed the bag that contained the phones and tablets into her clothes. “Hurry up and bring the food into the house. Find a clean place to store it well. It’ll be troublesome if sand gets in!”
“Alright, I got it. Go back and rest. You’ve been through so much today.”
Yu Xinya smiled helplessly as she walked toward the door. “How can I have time to rest? I have to hurry up and bring people to install the movable boards.”
Du Yue nodded and did not try to persuade her anymore. After knowing Yu Xinya for so long, she understood her character very well. No matter what happened, she did not like to delay things and had to solve the problem as soon as possible. Besides, if they quickly installed the movable boards, it would be much more convenient for them to live in the small building. Du Yue thought about it and reminded Yu Xinya to pay attention to her safety.
After Yu Xinya left, Du Yue returned to the car and put all the bags of food she had bought into her space. Then, she returned to the house. As they opened the door to the living room several times, a lot of sand had already blown in. Fortunately, the floors of this portable house were made of soil, so the sand that blew in was not very obvious.
After closing the door and inserting the bolt, Du Yue and He Xing took off their headgear, masks, and sunglasses. They had been wearing headgear for the entire morning, making them sweat. Their hair was also a mess. Sweat and hair stuck to their faces, making them look extremely sticky. Fortunately, the important things had been settled, and they probably would not have to go out for a while. Du Yue simply took out two bathtubs from the space, and the two of them took a bath.
After taking a shower, Du Yue could not wait to open her phone. She had not used her phone for a long time since she left the first base. She was not in a hurry when she did not have internet access, but after getting it, she kept thinking about whether the third base had released any new news.
She opened the base’s official application and saw that the interface was almost the same as the one used by the first base. After looking around, she did not see any special news. The only news about the sandstorm was released by the government a week ago, informing the residents of the base that a sandstorm was coming. They were told to hide at home, close their doors and windows, and not go out unless necessary. As for why the sandstorm suddenly appeared and when it would end, no one mentioned it.
Du Yue felt that it was normal. The sandstorm was so fierce that even the officials of the base were stunned, let alone the ordinary residents. Now that a week had passed, they should be in the midst of intensive research. He Xing came in after taking a shower and saw Du Yue holding a phone with a serious face. He asked her curiously, “Did you see any useful news?”
Du Yue looked up at him and sighed helplessly. “There’s nothing…” As she spoke, Du Yue’s hand subconsciously swiped up and down the screen, constantly refreshing the interface. In the next second, a new announcement suddenly appeared on the top of the screen.
