Chapter 992 Peeping in Secret

"Boss, should we avoid it?" Vincent looked at the convoy driving from the east and asked the muscular man next to him.

The man looked at the convoy driving slowly from the east, hesitated and said, "Well, hide. Judging from the direction they are driving, they should be heading to Oil City."

After saying that, he bent down and moved towards the ruins of the building behind.

After several natural disasters, many buildings that were not very strong collapsed.

Ruins of ruins and dust everywhere.

They hid behind a broken wall and braved their heads to look at the vehicles carefully.

In oil city.

The east platform on the wall saw the motorcade approaching in the distance, and immediately picked up the binoculars and looked over there.

When he saw the oncoming car, he knew who these people were.

People from Southland!

Unexpectedly, just a few days after the heavy rain disaster ended, they couldn't wait to come here.

obviously.

They came to exchange oil.

"Battal Commander, the people from Southern Paradise are here again. Please answer me." Dongtai picked up the walkie-talkie and called.

After not waiting for a reply from Ju Tianrui for a long time, Dongtai said to the team member next to him: "Xiao He, the people from Southern Paradise are here. You should quickly inform the battalion commander and ask him to come over."

"good."

Xiao He turned around and ran towards the wall.

Upstairs in the conference room, Ju Tianrui was eating in the room.

Thumb thump thump——

The sound of footsteps came.

Ju Tianrui looked over doubtfully.

The door was not closed, and Xiao He appeared at the door.

After Xiao He saw Ju Tianrui, he quickly said: "Batalion Commander, the people from Southern Paradise are here. Dongtai will let you go."

Bada——

Ju Tianrui put the food in his hand on the table, got up and walked outside without any hesitation.

As he walked, he pulled up his radiation protection suit, and then took off his helmet near the door.

I groped around but couldn't find the walkie-talkie.

Only then did he remember that he had forgotten to take it when he came up and left the walkie-talkie in the conference room.

"Walk."

Ju Tianrui said.

In less than three minutes, Ju Tianrui reached the wall.

At this time, less than fifty meters away from the wall, just like two months ago, a familiar car was parked.

It was the car that Chen Er and the others took before.

At this time, Chen Er and a woman got out of the car and were talking to Dongtai.

"Our captain is here, let him talk to you." Dongtai saw Ju Tianrui coming up, so he said to Chen Er and the others below.

"Captain Ju, I haven't seen you for a long time. Let's meet again."

Chen Er below was wearing a cloak, and his face could not be clearly seen, but his voice could still tell that it was him.

Ju Tianrui looked at them and said, "Come in and talk, we haven't seen you for a long time."

"Okay." Chen Er nodded and quickly got into the car.

The vehicle slowly drove under the gate of the wall.

The door was also opened at this moment.

There were four or five team members wearing radiation protection suits standing inside the door, holding firearms and looking at Chen Er and others outside the door.

Crunch——

Chen Er and the others stopped the car and could not drive into the city. This was the rule of the oil city. If they wanted to cooperate with others, they must abide by it.

Tread——

Chen Er and Ma Yingxue got off the car and walked slowly towards the gate.

This time they arrived too quickly and failed to set up a temporary tent, and the solar radiation was too strong, so they took them to the house closest to the door.

There is a long table and a dozen stools placed in this room.

"Please come this way." Dongtai walked inside with Ma Yingxue and Chen Er.

Because the solar radiation outside was too strong, we simply let them in first and then conducted a body search, but they were followed by four or five team members holding firearms.

soon.

They walked into this small building less than thirty meters away from the gate.

Walking into the room, the temperature dropped several degrees under the shadow.

Chen Er took off the hat on his head, then took off his mask and sunglasses.

Only two red marks appeared on his face. It seemed that he was not paying attention to being radiated by the sun.

Chen Er looked a little tired.

"We are going to conduct a body search on you. Please cooperate. Thank you."

Xiao He said to the two of them.

"It's okay, just search." Chen Er nodded and said.

On the other side, Zuo Ruxue was searching Ma Yingxue.

After checking, they were allowed to pass.

in the conference room of the central building.

Ju Tianrui used the military radio to contact Da Zhangshu Base, and then told Li Yu about the arrival of Southern Paradise.

After Li Yu learned about it, he asked Ju Tianrui to negotiate with them based on the previous exchange ratio.

Anyway, they came here, and oil extraction work has now resumed in Oil City.

After Ju Tianrui understood what Li Yu meant, he put down the military radio headset, put on his helmet and rushed to Dongtai and the others.

in the room.

Dongtai said to them with a smile: "Wait a moment, the captain will be here soon. Drink some water first."

"Don't worry, don't worry, everyone is familiar with it." Chen Er said.

Ma Yingxue, who was next to her, had been looking around since she came in, but she never found Xiao Jun.

I was a little curious at this time, but it seemed too obvious to ask as soon as I came here, so I held back and didn't ask.

After Chen Er drank two sips of water, he looked at the radiation protection suits on Dongtai and the others and praised:

"The clothes you are wearing are very effective in blocking solar radiation. I wonder if you still have more of these clothes? If possible, we can exchange them with you."

Hearing this, Dongtai smiled and shook his head and said:

"I'm afraid we don't have this, and we don't have many. I'm really sorry."

"Okay." Chen Er said regretfully.

Dongtai rolled his eyes and asked tentatively:

"The solar radiation outside is so strong, it's not easy for you to come from such a distance, right?"

Chen Er sighed, nodded and said, "Well, who says it's not the case? Two of our cars broke down halfway and didn't follow us.

The heavy rain a while ago, now that I think about it, is really frightening. "

Dongtai looked at Chen Er's expression and had some guesses in his mind.

So he asked: "It shouldn't have much impact on you, right?"

Chen Er's eyebrows were a little sad, and he waved his hands and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't say it, it doesn't matter if you don't say it, but these days are getting more and more sad."

Dongtai nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, it's not easy."

At this moment, Ju Tianrui walked in from outside the door.

"You two, I just had something to do and was delayed for a few minutes. I've been waiting for a long time." Ju Tianrui said with a smile.

"Don't be in a hurry, just take it slow. The sun outside is killing people. The radiation is too strong." Chen Er quickly stood up and said when he saw Ju Tianrui coming in.

Glancing at Ma Yingxue next to him, Chen Er suddenly asked:

"By the way, where is Captain Xiao of Xiao Jun? Why didn't you see him when you came here this time? Do you know him?"

When Ma Yingxue heard Chen Er ask this question, she immediately pricked up her ears and listened carefully.

Ju Tianrui explained:

"Oh, that's it. He has returned to the headquarters base. It will probably take some time before he comes back."

"So that's it, I understand." Chen Er nodded.

Ma Yingxue, who was sitting silently next to her, lowered her head and drank water, covering up the loss and regret in her eyes.

Ju Tianrui walked to the table and gestured to Chen Er, who stood up, to sit down.

"Sit down first, let's get straight to the topic. What do you plan to exchange for when you come here this time?" Ju Tianrui sat down and said.

Chen Er sat down and said:

"Based on the 100 tons of fuel exchange quota you mentioned, we brought a truckload of medicine, 25 tons of salt and 15 tons of sugar. All of them were exchanged."

Ju Tianrui thought about it in his mind, and it was agreed before that the ratio of medicines was one to three, and the ratio of salt to sugar was one to two.

The supplies Chen Er and the others brought over were just right.

So he nodded and said:

"No problem, just follow the previous standards and you can trade later."

When Chen Er heard this, a smile appeared on his face and he said with a smile: "It's refreshing to work with you and we are also honest."

When Ju Tianrui heard what Chen Er said, he waved his hand and said, "Win-win cooperation, it's good for you and me."

"Hahahaha, it makes sense." Chen Er laughed.

The heart that had been hanging around now relaxed a little.

This time I came out in a hurry, out of necessity.

There is a lack of power in the base! There was also a lack of fuel.

Just after the heavy rain, they tried to build an indoor plantation at the base.

There is no light under the heavy rain, but there is plenty of water.

The fill light can provide lighting, but the fill light needs the support of electricity, so they use diesel generators to continuously generate electricity.

After the heavy rains ended, these indoor crops grew well.

However, after more than two months of consumption, a lot of the diesel they had stored was consumed.

They thought about moving the crops outside, but the solar radiation outside was too strong.

Not to mention whether the crops could survive, many of the trees along the way were killed by the sun.

so.

They used some methods to bring in sunlight from outside, refract it, and weaken the sunlight a lot to provide light for crops.

The current climate is uncertain, and maybe something messy will happen in the future.

Being able to trade early and have a little more fuel on hand is more important than anything else.

Before that, they were also worried about whether Oil City would be overrun by a zombie wave during the heavy rain.

If they were captured by a zombie wave, they might not be able to trade fuel for a while.

Fortunately, when they came over, they were pleasantly surprised to find that Oil City was still there.

Think about it, after all, there is a powerful force behind Oil City, and they will definitely not let Oil City be captured by zombies.

This time the cooperation was negotiated and everyone relaxed.

Hai Tian chatted nonchalantly about other innocuous things.

Before leaving.

Chen Er asked tentatively.

"Well, Captain Ju, we have cooperated several times. Is it possible to expand the categories of transactions?"

"Oh? What do you want to trade?" Ju Tianrui asked curiously.

I was thinking, do they have anything good?

Chen Er opened his mouth and said:

"Look, the categories we can trade here include medicines, salt, and sugar. I wonder if it's possible for you over there. Is it possible to trade grain?"

Upon hearing this, Ju Tianrui took a deep look at Chen Er and said:

"Haha, are you kidding me? In these apocalypse, food is more expensive than anything else, and we don't have enough food."

"Pretend I didn't say it, pretend I didn't say it. Haha, I hope you don't mind. Of course, if your base has this intention, we will definitely show enough sincerity to trade with you." Chen Er said quickly.

"Well, let's talk about it later."

Ju Tianrui couldn't be the master, but according to his guess, Chen Er's request was basically impossible.

"Then let's start trading. I'll wait for you at the same place, okay?" Chen Er asked.

Ju Tianrui nodded, turned his head and said to Dongtai behind him:

"The weather is dry and hot, and fuel can easily catch fire. When you move it later, please try to be as small as possible."

"OK."

Afterwards, Zuo Ruxue sent Chen Er and the others out.

After they left, Dongtai quickly said to Ju Tianrui:

"They look very anxious. Did something happen to them?"

Ju Tianrui shook his head and said:

"I don't know, but since they came to exchange, let's exchange with them. Mr. Li said that it can be exchanged.

By the way, when you go out to trade later, keep your eyes open and carefully check all the supplies they bring over. "

"Okay, I get it, then I'll get ready."

"good."

Outside Oil City.

Amidst the ruins.

Beside a half-collapsed wall, several people looked towards the Oil City with telescopes.

"A car drove by, no, they parked it outside the gate."

"Someone came down and went in."

"Everyone, stop talking, Vincent. Do you think these people are together?"

When Vincent heard his elder brother's question, he took a telescope and looked at the convoy that was closer to them.

He said, "Probably not. You see, these convoys didn't follow them in. Maybe they belong to another force."

Another force?

The strong man thought to himself: This oil city hasn't figured it out yet, why is there another force coming out?

While they were guessing, time passed slowly.

Twenty minutes later.

They saw the gate of Oil City being opened, and the two people who had just entered came out, got in the car and returned to the convoy.

"What are they doing?" one person asked curiously.

Vincent thought for a while and said:

"From the current point of view, this fleet that is closer to us should be different from Oil City. Brother, look at the biggest feature of this fleet is that there are actually ten tank trucks.

There are only so many cars, and there is no need for so many tank trucks to fill them with oil, so it is most likely related to fuel. "

The muscular man nodded and said, "Let's see again."

Then he said to the others: "Be careful, don't get discovered."

"clear."

soon.

They saw the gate of Oil City being opened again.

A number of vehicles drove out, some of which contained oil drums, and several tank trucks.

"This is?" Vincent already had a rough guess in his mind.

They looked at the convoys driving out of the city and approached those outside.

Dozens of people got off the car, and a dozen of them were wearing radiation protection suits, holding firearms in their hands, and standing around on guard.

They watched a pipe suck out of the oil drum and into the oil tanker that was originally in the convoy outside.

Sudden.

They saw a man unloading a box of things from the car.

"That's, that's sugar?" Vincent said with some surprise.
