Bathtub story and Trades

When the girls finally finished washing each other's hair, Xiaoyun was already sleeping peacefully in the bathtub.

"Is Xiaoyun asleep? Should we still go inside it?" Nami asked quietly, her face blushing red as Xiaoyun's cock was fully visible.

"I had been waiting all day for this. Of course, we're going inside it. It's not just him that needs a nice hot water break."

As Yuqi jumped into the bathtub, Xiaoyun was instantly awakened by it.

"Come on, let's just all go in. It's big enough for the five of us anyway."

Leyan pushed Yueyue and Nami to join in before getting in herself, causing the water to flow out rapidly.

But she quickly turned it back on to bring in more hot water and filled it up to the brim before turning it off.

"Why did you guys buy such a big bathtub? It never came with the house, did it?" Yuqi curiously asked.

"Yeah, it didn't... We only bought it after... Um, Xiaoyun, do you remember when we brought it?"

"Let me think... Oh, right, we bought this bathtub when you were pregnant with twins. You couldn't fit in the old bathtub, so I just had a custom-made one."

"Right! I remember I even said when they grow up, all five of us could shower together." Leyan excitedly pointed out as she thought back to that time.

"A shame that Mr.Songming can't be with us, but at least Nami is here to make it five." Xiaoyun joked as memories of the past started flooding into his head.

"Hey, that's not funny. I'd rather have you and all five of us together." Leyan argued with a serious tone.

"You sure? You don't want our secret time together? Having them all sent away to your in-law and——"

"Shut up, Xiaoyun, don't tell them that. I would never want that over our three daughters."

Leyan blushed as she quickly covered Xiaoyun's mouth, only letting go after he nodded in agreement.

"What secret time?" Nami curiously asked.

"It's nothing. Don't worry about it——"

"A time where we'll have sex for the entire week——"

Before Xiaoyun could finish, Leyan held onto his lip in anger, not letting this time until her hand started to get tired.

"Mom! Was that why you sent us to our grandparent's house?" Yuqi asked in anger, as she was the only one who still had memories of it.

"What? That's not true. He's just making things up. I sent you guys over because your grandparents want to see their grandkid."

"Yeah, yeah. I was just joking. Come on, guys." Xiaoyun chimed in.

Despite the clarification, all three of them held up suspicions towards the two, as if they had betrayed them or something despite them just doing a couple of things back then.

As the room fell into silence, nobody spoke up again until Leyan noticed something off about Xiaoyun's face.

"What's wrong, honey? You want to say something?" Leyan asked.

"It's nothing; I'm just thinking about something," Xiaoyun replied, but it made all four of them worried.

"Come on, there is no secret between us," Yuqi asked this time.

"Well, I am just thinking... If you guys are all pregnant, I shouldn't let you guys take risks like these," Xiaoyun confesses.

"What? Our belly is not even visible yet." Yueyue argued as she rubbed her belly.

"Xiaoyun, it's still nowhere near even a single trimester. Trust me, I'm a nurse. I know my stuff." Leyan reassured, but Xiaoyun still didn't look convinced.

"But I feel like I'm not doing my responsibility as a husband... I should be taking care of these fights and not force you guys to fight——"

"Hey! Who said you have the right to tell us to stay inside? We are doing this because we want to." Yuqi argued.

"Yeah. We're doing this for the town. It's pretty sexist to say that women shouldn't be on the battlefield." Nami added.

"You are right. I shouldn't have even said that. Sorry about what I said earlier." Xiaoyun apologized after realizing their points.

"Ahem, let's just relax and enjoy ourselves," Leyan whispered as she leaned over to Xiaoyun's shoulder, her right hand reaching down below the water.

Xiaoyun groaned as he closed his eyes, feeling a surge of pleasure after a warm hand started stroking his cock up and down.

"Ahem, Mom... Nami is still here." Yuqi reminded, with Yueyue wanting to warn them but being too shy to speak up.

The two quickly separated, but the damage had been done as Nami's face was in complete shock.

"Um, I'll go back to my room now." Nami quickly left the bathroom naked, not wanting to stay any further.

As soon as the door closes, the three of them suddenly lunged towards him and pinned him to the bathtub.

"No! Nami, come back!" Xiaoyun yelled out towards the bathroom door, but it was far too late.

---

When Xiaoyun woke up, it was already ten o'clock.

He could feel his hip hurting as if he had run an ultramarathon. But as he thought back to the girl's smile, he didn't regret it a single bit.

"They probably heard it all... I need to soundproof the room." Xiaoyun thought to himself as he brushed his teeth.

After changing into his casual clothes, Xiaoyun headed downstairs.

Only Nami and Lily were in the living room, whose faces started blushing as soon as they saw him.

"Good morning." Xiaoyun waved awkwardly

"Good morning." Nami and Lily replied, their eyes glued to the TV playing some anime connected from Nami's computer.

"Za warudo!" The TV sound played as Xiaoyun headed over to the kitchen.

As he sat down, a bowl of noodles lay on the table, with a sticky note that said, 'for Xiaoyun.'

"They really already went to work that early?" Xiaoyun murmured as he started eating the noodles.

After he finished eating, he waved goodbye to the two in the living room before heading out to work.

---

"Anything new?" Xiaoyun asked as he entered the security room.

"Nope, everyone seems to be back to work now... Also, everyone seems to be much closer to each other." Yezi commented.

"That's brotherhood and unity. It's formed through battles and being able to trust your back on a stranger."

Yiming was sitting on the chair next to Yezi without the two assistants who always followed him.

"Where's Gantian and Jixi?" Xiaoyun curiously asked.

"Gantian and Jixi? They are teaching the construction crew how to build traps outside the walls." Yiming replied.

"Oh, nice... How are our weapon and ammo looking?" Xiaoyun asked as he took a seat next to Yiming.

"Well, we had completely run out of pistol ammo. Everyone who had a pistol also ran out of ammo.

My pistol is also emptied. The rifle you gave to Gantian and Jixi is also emptied, and the rifle they brought with them never had any ammo since we left the city.

The only ones still with ammo are Yezi's rifle and pistols for the three people who went with him... Can you guys replenish these?"

Yiming puts his pistol on the table, which looks drastically different from Xiaoyun's and his men's.

Then he pointed at the two rifles already on the table, which also looked completely different from Yezi's M16.

"Which guns are these? What ammo do they use?" Xiaoyun curiously asked.

"That pistol is QSZ-92. The one we're using is Type 77. And for that rifle, it's the standard QBZ-95, which uses 5.8X42mm as opposed to our M16, using 5.56×45mm." Yezi explained.

"Yeah... We can't replenish those guns' ammo. But you guys can keep using ours instead for now."

Hearing Xiaoyun's reply, Yiming nodded in agreement, already expecting this answer from him.

But a question remained in his head ever since he arrived here.

"Co-mayor Yezi, can I ask how did you smuggle three M16s into the country? I know you're a smuggler and all, but how did you pull that off?" Yiming curiously asked.

"It's top secret. All you need to know is I have some connection in the Middle East in the past," Yezi answered.

Yiming turned over to Xiaoyun, looking at him as if he was hoping that Xiaoyun was going to give him an answer.

"Yezi, I'm going to tell him the truth." Xiaoyun suddenly announced.

"What? Are you sure?" Yezi asked, shaking his head as if he thought he just had tinnitus or something.

"I'm sure. He had proven that he can be trusted... Here, Yiming, look at my hand for a second."

Yiming turned his head down, looking at Xiaoyun's empty hand with a confused face until a light appeared out of thin air.

As the light disappeared, a Type 77 pistol was in Xiaoyun's hand, the same replica of the gun on Xiaoyun's waist.

"What the fuck... Sorry, excuse me, but did you just create this?" Yiming asked, his mind still recovering from the shock.

"Yep, here's a bottle of water and a can."

Xiaoyun instantly created a bottle of water before throwing it into Yiming's hand, signaling to open it.

As Yiming drank it, it tasted just like normal water, with no difference from other bottled water.

"This all makes sense now... No wonder how a civilian town would be able to have so many guns and food."

Yiming finally connected the things he had witnessed in the town, which could all be explained by a simple duplication magic that no one would ever think of.

"Xiaoyun, can you clone this pistol?" Yiming asked, handing his QSZ-92 over to Xiaoyun.

Xiaoyun tried his best as he thought of the gun inside his head. But only after a sharp pain does the replica of the gun appear in his hand.

"Here... The more I use this ability at the same object, the easier it is for me, so this hurts my head a little since I never made it."

As Xiaoyun explained it to Yiming, he suddenly realized something.

"Yiming, can you take apart Yiming's M16 and this Type 77? Just put them on the table here." Xiaoyun requested.

"Sure."

Yiming quickly took them apart within seconds, laying the different pieces on the table. Next, Xiaoyun started picking up one of the small pieces in hand.

Within seconds, he was able to clone it without causing any headaches. So he quickly picked up another piece and cloned it as well.

After cloning every single part, enough to reassemble both the rifle and pistol, Xiaoyun's head was still completely fine.

"Fuck! Why didn't I realize this sooner? All I needed was to clone it piece by piece instead of all at once!"

As Xiaoyun facepalmed himself in front of the two, they knew Xiaoyun had just made a massive breakthrough.

"Better late than never." Yezi comforted.

"You're right... Anyway, you guys don't have to worry about weapons anymore. I'll go home and clone them.

Xiaoyun quickly created an empty cardboard box and put the disassembled pieces into it before leaving the room.

"He looked really happy," Yiming commented.

"Yeah... You would be happy too if you had seen him having constant headaches trying to clone the guns," Yezi explained with excitement on his face.

---

Two weeks quickly went past since the zombie attack.

Xiaoyun was able to mass-produce both the M16 and Type 77 by simply creating one part at a time.

Getting used to creating smaller parts one at a time and then assembling them manually was much easier, especially after he started giving those small pieces to the training field as part of the mandatory training to reassemble them back into one.

The eight militia members were able to have rifles, and everyone in town was able to get a pistol when gun training started. But ammo was still limited, which still hindered how many shots each person could do.

Although Yezi and Yiming were both extremely happy to see having more guns, they got into an intense debate regarding gun ownership.

Specifically, it's about whether everyone should be allowed to carry a gun on their own or store it in the storage room when the time calls for it.

But after listening to both sides of the argument, Xiaoyun eventually sided with Yezi and kept the guns inside the training field's storage room rather than Yiming's idea of carrying them personally.

Still, Xiaoyun made some exceptions. The only ones allowed to carry a gun were people on duty patrolling the wall or going outside to scout.

Of course, this doesn't include Yiming and his two assistants, nor does it include Xiaoyun and Yezi.

But just as the second week was about to pass peacefully, Yiming's prediction about the smoke attraction's attention came true.

---

"Why are there so many cars out here?" Xiaoyun asked, noticing the seven cars outside of the wall.

"I don't know either. Lingang just told me that there are some people outside. Let's try to talk to them first.

Hello, everyone. Can I ask why you guys are here?" Yezi asked, yelling as loud as he could.

"I thought you guys had a lot of food cooking since that massive smoke was coming from the forest." One of the men replied.

"Yeah, we thought the same thing, too. Can we buy any food from you guys? We can trade," another man replied.

"Are you guys all together?" Yezi asked again.

"No!" The first man replied.

"Should we trade with them?" Yezi quietly asked this time.

Xiaoyun thought for a second, then nodded after noticing their lack of weapons on the men.

As the bridge slowly lowered, all of the guards on the wall pointed their rifles right at the outsider.

"We're just taking precautions. After a few minutes, we'll come down with food to trade with you guys," Xiaoyun yelled.

The people outside nodded in agreement, as it was too late now to turn back with all the guns pointed at them.

"I'll go to the store to get the food. You just stay here."

After waiting for almost twenty minutes, Yezi finally got his car and parked it right by the entrance.

Xiaoyun signaled three of the guards to follow him down to reunite with Yezi before driving the car outside.

As the cars stopped in front of the first car, all three guards, along with Xiaoyun, stepped out to finally see who they were dealing with up close.

Most of them were middle-aged men, with a few that looked more towards the younger side.

He could even see a few women and children inside their cars as if they had just escaped the city together.

"Hello, I'm the mayor of Luoping. Are you guys here to trade or to join us?" Xiaoyun asked as he stood behind the three guards.

"Good day, sir. My name is Liu Bing. I'm here to trade." Liu Bing stepped up first before the other men from other cars could.

"Great. What do you have?" Xiaoyun asked.

"We have looted many medical supplies. From aspirin to antiviral drugs. You name it, we have it."

Liu Bing brought Xiaoyun and Yezi to the back of the van before opening it, revealing all the medical equipment he had described.

But more importantly, ten people were sitting inside, all holding blood-stained machete with a tough face.

"We would like to take all of it," Xiaoyun answered calmly.

"Oh, all of it. That is going to be a hefty price. You sure you want all of it?" Liu Bing asked to make sure.

"Name a price. I have all kinds of canned food. Just name it."

Liu Bing thought for a second, then gave his offer.

"How about at least five boxes of beef cans?"

"Sure. You two, go lift seven boxes to his van."

As the two guards headed to the back of Yezi's pickup truck to carry the food, Yezi himself was a little confused by the number.

"Wait, why are we giving them seven?" Yezi quietly asked.

"I think they can be great trading partners, so I want to incentivize them to come back and trade with us," Xiaoyun quietly replied.

After the two militia carried the boxes of food into the van, one of the men inside took one of the cans to open it.

To their surprise, the beef was real as the smell filled the entire van.

"Thank you so much!" Liu Bing excitedly reached his hand out for a handshake.

"No problem."

With the first deal done, everyone had high hopes after seeing Liu Bing drive off with his van with all the medical equipment by Yezi's car.

"Next one, please."

As the next person stepped out of the car, it was a man wearing sunglasses.

"What do you have to trade?" Xiaoyun asked.

"We got seeds, as well as several bags of fertilizer." The man replied.

"Why did you carry these all the way out here? That's such an odd choice to keep inside the car." Yezi commented.

"My family was planning to go back to my hometown and live as a farmer. But we got caught up in the chaos.

We realized we didn't have enough food to make it after calculating the distance, so we decided to stop here when we saw the smoke in the distance."

"Well then, let's see how much there is."

The man opened the trunk, revealing the ten packs of fertilizers and several packs of different vegetable seeds.

"I can offer you two boxes of canned food," Xiaoyun suggested first this time.

"At least five." The man replied.

"Three boxes, leave it or take it." Xiaoyun gives his offer.

"Four boxes, please. My family needs it to get to the countryside." The man's voice started to crack.

"Fine, you got it. Four boxes."

"Thank you so much."

The man bowed down with gratitude as one guard lifted the seeds and fertilizer away while the other one lifted the boxes of canned food.

"Hope you have a good journey."

With the car driving off, Xiaoyun moved on to the next deal. However, the next two car deals were for miscellaneous items, so he only traded one box of food for them.

Yezi was getting a little tired, so he headed back inside his car and waited.

"Finally, the last one," Xiaoyun murmured as the final car approached.

As soon as Xiaoyun saw the car, he was stunned. It wasn't just any car—it was a whole RV.

All three of the guards immediately pointed their guns at the driver as the car engine refused to stop.

Only after waiting for a whole minute did the RV go into park mode, and it took another minute for the driver to get out.

It was a middle-aged man wearing a Hawaiian shirt and shorts who looked as if he was about to go on a vacation.

"What do you want to trade?" Xiaoyun asked.

"Anything in the car, as long as I can trade food for it." The man replied, his voice sounding a little urgent.

"Um, how about the entire car then?" Xiaoyun suggested as he noticed the solar panel on the roof.

"I can't do that. The boss is going to get mad at me, and I still need to get back," the man replied nervously, seeing all the rifles carried by the guards.

He got even more nervous after noticing the soldiers standing on the wall, all holding guns and pointing at him as if they were about to fire if he did something suspicious.

"Okay. Then let go inside."
