Chapter 348 Safe City VS Xincheng (4000 words long chapter, 79 more chapters added to previous rewar

"Bastard! Didn't I emphasize before that we must strictly follow our requirements?

Lao Tao, you are so ignorant. Please apologize to everyone immediately and promise not to do it again next time. Elder Wu leaned on a cane, pointed at Captain Tao and cursed viciously.

Even because he was too angry, Mr. Wu threw his crutch over and hit Captain Tao.

Captain Tao lowered his eyebrows and stood there silently, as if he really knew he was wrong.

Listening to Mr. Wu reprimanding his subordinates over there, neither Hua Chuanlong nor Ke Hanyu spoke.

For them, Captain Tao's actions actually harmed their interests. Although they did not need to pay protection fees when they returned to Safe City, they were also the ones who had to collect protection fees.

Lao Zhuang watched Wu Lao scold Captain Tao with cold eyes. In fact, he really wanted to go back: just scold a few words, and the apology is over? There are no actual penalties at all.

First, there were no punishment measures, and second, he was not asked to hand over the previously embezzled things.

what is this?

Hehe, this set has been seen countless times as early as many years ago.

The stick was raised high and then lowered gently, without pain or itching.

But Lao Zhuang is also very helpless in his heart. These civilian groups are very disunited.

Many people actually have an ostrich mentality, as long as they can survive, as long as they are not forced to the last step, they are still willing to endure bullying to the last moment.

well.

Lao Zhuang sighed long and long, if these civilian groups could unite, they would not be so passive.

So he said: "I won't say anything else, we have searched many places near the safety city, and now we are not as simple as before to find supplies.

At least it must be guaranteed to survive, so one third is definitely impossible. One-sixth, that's our bottom line. "

Elder Wu, Hua Chuanlong, and Ke Hanyu looked at each other.

Hua Chuanlong suddenly said:

"Lao Zhuang, Lao Sun, Lao He, look at this, the trouble is so big now, and everyone's face is ugly. Can you see if you can let the brothers go back first. Tomorrow we will go out to search for supplies first, and we will talk about it when we come back."

Hearing what they said, Lao Zhuang felt a little unconvinced, so he said, "No, we have to make it clear now, otherwise we won't leave."

Wu Lao frowned when he heard this, and instead of looking at Lao Zhuang, he said to Lao Sun and Lao He:

"Lao Sun, Lao He, please advise Lao Zhuang. It's a waste of time for us to be in a stalemate here. The top priority is to go out and find supplies."

Lao Sun and Lao He looked at each other and remembered what Mr. Wu had just talked to them in private.

His eyes flickered.

Lao Sun approached Lao Zhuang slowly and said: "Old Zhuang, what Mr. Wu said is also reasonable. Before this cold weather, everyone was still very safe. Now the most urgent thing is to go outside to find supplies."

Lao He also echoed: "Yes, Lao Zhuang, we are still wasting time here.

Lao Zhuang's eyes widened and he looked at the two of them in disbelief and said, "What are you doing? What on earth is going on?"

Lao He stopped Lao Zhuang, walked closer and said, "Lao Zhuang, I have something to tell you later."

Seeing that the group of civilians were communicating, Mr. Wu couldn't reach an agreement for a while, so he said, "Well, let's communicate first and reach an agreement.

We'll come back for the meeting in half an hour. "

Lao Sun quickly said: "Okay, let's have another meeting in half an hour to discuss it."

Hua Chuanlong and Ke Hanyu looked at each other. It didn't matter to them. Anyway, according to what Mr. Wu cared about the most, people become better with age.

Just let him take the lead and solve these problems.

The crowd dispersed.

In a room.

Lao Sun, Lao He, and Lao Zhuang are communicating.

Lao Sun closed the window, then stuck his head out to see if there was no one outside, then turned back to Lao Zhuang and said:

"Lao Zhuang, I won't hide it from you. You know the current situation very well. We, this group of people, don't have guns.

Although there are many people, they can't be defeated. Besides, we also need their protection now.

What's more, Mr. Wu and the others won't treat us badly. "

Lao He also came over, patted Lao Zhuang on the shoulder and said:

"Yes, if you don't care for yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth. What's more, they have agreed to give us half of the distribution."

Lao Zhuang looked at the two people with disbelief on his face, a surge of anger welled up, and he said angrily: "The four of us were all elected as civilian representatives.

Our duty is to protect the interests of civilians, how can we stand on their side and bully our own people! ! You guys really disappoint me!

Besides, don’t you know what kind of people they are?

Old Liu was killed by them before, have you forgotten?

If we don’t unite and work together to fight for our interests, we will be the ones who die later.

Lao Sun, Lao He! "

He was impassioned and his tone was full of hatred.

When Lao Sun heard this, he sighed and said:

"I'm talking about Lao Zhuang. To be honest, we were selected as representatives, isn't it because our family has more people, and the rest of them are refugees, and they are all scattered people in some groups with less than 5 people.

If you don’t think about yourself, you should also think about your family and your brothers. "

Lao He didn't have such a good temper, so he directly said sarcastically:

"I say Lao and Zhuang, we have all said good things, let me say it again!

Just now someone from Wu Lao sent a message to us, saying that if we pay one-third of the protection fee, there are three of us, your family has more than a dozen people, and the total of our three families will not have more than fifty people.

Now our civilian population, after experiencing this cold climate, has gone from over a thousand people to an estimated 800 people now.

From now on, when our group enters the safe city, the protection fee is waived, and we can also enjoy 5% of the materials provided by the remaining 750 people.

Think about it, if this happens in the future, our lives will be much richer. "

Lao Zhuang looked at his face and felt like vomiting for a moment, and said angrily:

"I don't care what you want to do. Anyway, I don't agree and I would rather die.

Could it be that your conscience has been eaten by dogs, and you teamed up with them to bully your own people? It is because of people like you that their gang will eat us to death. "

"Lao Zhuang, don't be ungrateful."

I saw that Lao Zhuang still looked like there was no fume coming in.

Lao Sun's eyes flickered and he walked straight out the door.

five minutes later.

Behind Lao Sun came Lao Zhuang's two brothers and his son.

As soon as Lao Zhuang's brother entered the door, he said: "Brother, brother Sun told me just now, I think it's okay, you don't think about yourself, you also think about our brothers."

Lao Zhuang’s son, who is also 19 years old this year, also stepped forward and said:

"Dad, my mother is not in good health. She was not well nourished these days. Look at her now. If she doesn't get supplements, I'm really worried about my mother's health."

Lao Zhuang had anticipated this scene as soon as his brothers and son entered the door. Human nature tends to be advantageous.

Even if you are not greedy, as long as you have family and people you care about, you will have weaknesses.

For others, there is a breakthrough.

Lao Zhuang closed his eyes in pain and breathed a long sigh of relief. He did not expect that his brother and son would come to persuade him, which made him feel desperate.

Without their support, if they don't even support Lao and Zhuang's decision, then what's the point of him.

What's more, if he still stubbornly insists on his previous decision, his brother and son may have great complaints against him in the future.

Maybe the wife and children will be separated.

Lao Zhuang was like a castrated cow. After being hit hard by a hammer, he felt weak all over.

He sat slumped on the stool and said, "Well, in that case, you decide."

Most of the time, people are not free.

Unless nothing matters, everyone has loopholes.

Half an hour is here in no time.

Mr. Wang did not leave, he simply stayed in the square and looked at everyone.

When he saw Lao Zhuang's state, he felt something was wrong.

Staring closely at Lao Zhuang, Lao Sun and Lao He, he suddenly seemed to understand something.

In the past, when doing business, it was always like this. At critical moments, we couldn’t reach an agreement. It wasn’t superficial. We couldn’t agree on the interests of the company. No one was so impartial.

Rather, when it comes to one's own interests, there is no consensus.

Mr. Wang murmured sarcastically, "Haha, man."

The meeting was held again.

But the atmosphere of the scene was much better, Mr. Wu said again:

"I discussed it with Hua Chuanlong and Ke Hanyu just now.

The reduction from the original one-half to the current one-third is our greatest sincerity.

Hua Chuanlong and Ke Hanyu are taking risks when they come together to guard our safe city.

There is no such thing as a wasted lunch. We are protecting Safe City and protecting your safety. If you give some appropriate sponsorship fees, there should be no problem.

Old Sun, how is your discussion going? "

Old Sun took Old Wu's question and said: "We went back and thought about it just now, and felt that now that the temperature is higher, there will be more zombies. I saw two zombies when I was at the door yesterday.

Therefore, after internal research and discussion, we accept your allocation ratio. "

Hearing this, Lao Zhuang opened his mouth, but his clothes were pulled twice.

Lao Zhuang turned his head and saw that it was his son who was pulling him. There was pleading in his eyes.

The son looks very much like his mother, and Lao Zhuang suddenly thought of his wife, thinking that his wife is indeed much older, because she often goes out to look for supplies, and then comes back with insufficient food, and now she is...

well.

Lao Zhuang suddenly closed his mouth again and was speechless.

He still has family after all.

After hearing what Lao Sun said, Mr. Wu saw that Lao Zhuang seemed to have something to say, so he asked directly: "Lao Zhuang, what do you think?"

Lao Zhuang swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "I have no problem."

Mr. Wang stood in the crowd, watching this scene like a bystander. He was sure that they had reached a deal in private.

But what they didn't expect was that it was unknown how many of these ordinary civilians would stay this time.

neither knows.

Hua Chuanlong laughed loudly and said: "Hahahaha, okay, then let's make a happy decision like this."

Elder Wu also said with a smile on his face: "Okay, we have settled on the distribution of sponsorship fees.

The next step is to discuss where to search for supplies next, so as to avoid quarrels and conflicts when everyone searches in repeated areas. "

Hua Chuanlong, Ke Hanyu, Lao Sun and others all fell silent for a while after hearing this.

There are a lot of supplies and miscellaneous things outside now, and there are even some complete industrial equipment.

But is it useful to them?

Useful, but not the most useful.

For them, the most valuable thing is: food!

They also planted some crops in Safe City, but due to drought, there was no harvest.

There was another heavy snowstorm later, and their population was large.

There is no way it can feed so many people.

In addition, Safety City was originally converted from a residential area, and there was simply not enough space for planting.

The ones planted outside Safety City have experienced several waves of zombies and were trampled by these zombies.

Food is the biggest problem!

They searched the surrounding areas around the safe city and found a lot of food, which was then consumed.

Now there are fewer and fewer foods to be found around, and the shelf life of these foods has passed. Although they can be eaten after the expiration date, some things have turned into shit like shit.

So, they need to look further afield.

Hua Chuanlong said: "Mr. Wu, you rarely go out to look for supplies, so you may not know very well. Now there is less and less food available outside."

Ke Hanyu also added: "Yes, we still have to find a way to grow some crops ourselves."

After hearing Ke Hanyu's words, Lao Sun said: "It's not like I didn't plant before. You haven't experienced that drought. It hasn't rained for such a long time. People will die of thirst, let alone crops."

Lao He also said: "We plant, we must plant, but now everyone's food is going to be exhausted, let alone whether there will be another big drought, like the previous one,

Even if it doesn't, the weather is good. But by the time we planted these crops, we would have starved to death. "

When Mr. Wu heard this, he frowned.

Everyone was silent for a while.

Mr. Wang, who had been watching with cold eyes, was speechless when he heard this.

Have you only considered this issue now?

Food, food, food.

He's almost gone, but he still has some hidden near Safe City.

I can eat it for at least two months.

Thinking of this, Mr. Wang suddenly felt a sense of superiority.

However, he soon thought about how he could end up like this. He felt superior just because there were two months' worth of food hidden outside.

Thinking back to what his life was like a few months ago.

There are a lot of subordinates, and he can eat whatever he wants.
