Chapter 237 Goodbye Xiao Jingyue

Lin Yao and his six companions stepped into the hall, where the furnishings were extremely simple.

On the left side of the entrance to the hall, there are three tables placed side by side with signs that say "Information Registration Office" on them. At this moment, three people are talking to the staff.

On the right hand side of the entrance, there are three rows of chairs, with seven or eight people sitting in groups of three or four.

A staff member in military uniform saw Lin Yao and his companions coming in and said, "Wait a moment in your seats. We will ask you to register your information. Here are your number plates."

As he spoke, he handed over a number plate with "Number 7" clearly written on it.

It seems that they are the seventh base to register today. It turns out that there are quite a few bases like them who have arrived early.

After they sat in their seats for about twenty minutes, it was their turn.

I only heard the staff shout loudly: "No. 7, base No. 7, come over to register your information."

Hearing the voice, Lin Yao and his companions stood up and walked towards the registration office.

There were only two chairs at the registration desk. Seeing this, the staff said, "After so many days, this is the first time we have a base with six people like you."

Lin Xiao and Lin Yao sat down, and the staff asked, "Where are you from? What's the name of the base?"

Lin Yao quickly replied: "We are from Qing City, and our base is called Peninsula Base."

As soon as Lin Yao finished speaking, the staff member who was originally preparing to take notes suddenly stopped writing, slowly raised his head, and looked straight at Lin Yao and the others.

When the staff around heard this, they all turned their eyes over.

Fortunately, Lin Yao and his team were mentally prepared for this. Lin Yao smiled at the registration staff and repeated clearly again: "We are from Qing City, and our base is called Peninsula Base."

The staff member came back to his senses and continued with the registration work at hand, then asked, "Who is the person in charge of your base?"

Lin Yao asked back: "How many can you write?"

This question made the staff member stunned for a moment. It was the first time that someone asked him this question.

In the past, other bases would just report a person's name, and no one had ever asked about this kind of thing.

The staff member frowned slightly and asked in confusion: "Do you have many people in charge of your base?"

Lin Yao introduced himself calmly: "I am Lin Yao, the base commander of the base."

Then he pointed to Lin Xiao beside him and said, "This is Lin Xiao, the military leader of our base."

Then, he pointed at Li Feifan and Shen Zhaoning and said, "These two are the second-in-command of our base, Li Feifan and Shen Zhaoning. They will be responsible for the presentation of the base application this time."

After hearing this, the staff member didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said helplessly: "Then write all four of you on it."

After Lin Yao and his companions finished registering, the staff member continued, "The base declaration statement will be made in five days. You will still gather here. Don't be late. If you are late, it will be regarded as giving up the declaration."

Lin Yao and the others nodded to show that they understood. Then, the staff handed the form to Lin Yao and pointed to a window not far away, saying, "Go over there to register your information and get your ID card.

With this ID card, you can get free food and lodging at the place we provide."

The staff member looked embarrassed, looked at Lin Yao and the others, and then said: "However, we can only provide food and lodging for three people at most. You will have to find a way to accommodate the rest."

Lin Yao thought for a moment and asked, "Are there any hotels or similar places in Beijing now?"

The staff responded: "There are no hotels, but there should be inns. But you need Beijing currency to stay in the inn. Do you have any?"

Lin Yao looked surprised and asked, "Gold coins? Is staying in a hotel so expensive now?"

The staff was stunned at first, but then they reacted and explained: "It's not a gold coin, it's a Beijing coin, which is currently only circulated in Beijing."

Lin Yao heaved a sigh of relief, secretly thanking himself for making such a mistake, and then asked, "Then how do I get Beijing currency?"

The staff member patiently said: "After you leave the base, you can see the Beijing currency exchange office on the street, and you need to exchange it with supplies.

As for the exchange rate and what specific materials are needed in exchange, it depends on what you have on hand."

Lin Yao thanked the staff with a smile, then led everyone out of the registration hall.

Coming out of the registration hall, several people came to the street.

The ground was full of cracks. There were a few open shops on the street, selling a variety of things: wrinkled clothes, rusty tools, ropes, and canned food and compressed biscuits collected from somewhere.

Lin Yao and his companions walked while looking at the shops on the street. Not long after, they saw a house converted from a container with the words "Beijing Currency Exchange Office" prominently written on it.

There were a number of people lined up in front of the house, each holding a variety of supplies, including a generator covered in mud, a monitor without a power cord, and someone holding a large bundle of wires.

Lin Yao turned to Xie Ziang and said, "Go and see what supplies they are recycling first."

Xie Ziang nodded and walked towards the exchange office. Outside the exchange office was a board with the categories of recycled materials clearly written on it.

They are roughly divided into several categories: one is energy, such as gasoline, diesel, dry batteries, etc. These materials can be exchanged for more Beijing currency;

There are also electronic devices, such as computers, monitors, printers, phones, routers, etc.;

Next are generators, excavators, engines, and motors; and lastly are food and daily chemicals.

After learning about these situations, Lin Yao and his companions walked to an empty corner, took out a can of gasoline, a can of diesel, and several dry batteries from the space, and even rubbed them on the ground in the space before taking them out and handing them to Xie Ziang and Wang Bo, asking them to exchange them for Beijing currency.

Not long after, the two completed the exchange, holding the Beijing currency tightly in their hands, and walked towards Lin Yao and his friends.

Lin Yao took the exchanged Beijing currency and examined it carefully, and found that the size of the Beijing currency was much smaller than the previous Chinese currency. It looked more like the meal tickets and grain coupons of the 1970s and 1980s, and the printing was far less exquisite than the previous Chinese currency.

This time they exchanged a total of more than 300 Beijing coins.

After exchanging the money for Beijing currency, they turned back towards the registration hall.

When they passed by just now, they happened to see a hotel nearby, which was very close to the place where the base was reported and the location was very convenient.

As soon as they walked to the door of the hotel, they ran into Xiao Jingyue.

Behind Xiao Jingyue were three elderly people, a middle-aged couple and a young girl in her twenties. They were Lin Xiao's grandparents, uncles and aunts.

Several people's eyes were scanning the street anxiously, as if they were anxiously looking for something.

When he saw Lin Yao and the others, Xiao Jingyue's face instantly broke into a happy smile and he waved to them hurriedly.

The people behind him also looked in the direction where Xiao Jingyue was waving his hand.

When they saw Lin Xiao beside Lin Yao, the eyes of the people behind him were instantly filled with tears.

After more than ten years, they finally saw their grandchildren and nephews again.

Seeing this, Xiao Jingyue hurriedly said, "Don't cry, don't cry. It's a great joy to meet each other. Don't scare the child."

Several people quickly raised their hands to wipe their eyes, and walked quickly towards Lin Yao and his companions with excited expressions.
