8. Food tax
Under Liu Wei's continued questioning, Wang Bo and Liu Wei talked about the safety zone in the past two days.
Originally, the safety committee of the safe zone was organized by older school teachers, and some teachers were responsible for collection and search and rescue, as well as managing the safe zone. In particular, some students had to follow the team to go outside to collect food and supplies.
Going out is a life-saving thing, but there are also a few teachers who give orders from above, and they can sit back and enjoy what they do without doing anything, and this pyramid structure model is constructed.
Originally, many students and teachers who went out were quite dissatisfied. This discontent erupted just after yesterday's airdrop.
Those old miscellaneous members of the security committee lied about the information of airdropped supplies to reassure people, but everyone waited for not supplies, but incendiary bombs. The teacher and some bastard students broke out, and there was a riot at the school. Several senior teachers of the safety committee were killed in the riots. The pyramid of the Security Council collapsed. Now, the entire safe zone has become a world of gangs led by low-level teachers and bastard students.
Now that the two sides occupy the men's and women's dormitories, the riots were originally in the name of overthrowing the oppression of the Security Council, but now that the Security Council has fallen, the new forces on both sides have begun to loot the people at the bottom. As long as those who stay in the safe zone, they must pay food every day, or they will be expelled from the safe zone!
And now Wang Bo and the other dozen or so people who were blocked out of the iron gate are people who cannot pay the "food tax" and have been driven out by various forces.
After listening to Wang Bo's story, Liu Wei felt that this incident was really ironic, originally to overthrow the old miscellaneous hairs of the Security Committee, but now the new two forces are more ruthless than the Security Committee, and they have started to oppress them. Driving people out of the safe zone, that's really like murder.
However, it is undeniable that in this city full of zombies, the safe zone is indeed a safe haven, which may not be nothing to Liu Wei, but it is a very important existence for Wang Bo and Zhao Yuanyuan.
"Let's go in first. Liu Wei said to Wang Bo.
Wang Bo said to Liu Wei: "They are very poisonous, and a person must pay three portions of food every day, otherwise he will not be allowed to enter." ”
Three portions of food? Sure enough, it is ruthless! It is a person's ration for a day, and most people may only find a bread to eat at once, and they need three portions of food at once, and it seems that they want to treat these people as "worker ants" who collect food.
Liu Wei There are three people here, and if you want to enter the safe zone, you need nine servings of food, and the food in Liu Wei's backpack is still enough, Liu Wei patted his backpack and said to Wang Bo: "It's okay, my brother has it!"
Wang Bo looked at Liu Wei with a relaxed face, and said excitedly: "Really, this is a few days' rations!"
Liu Wei patted Wang Bo on the shoulder and said to him: "In the future, when you mess with my brother, you should broaden your horizons a little, isn't it just a few portions of food?"
Wang Bo shouted excitedly: "Brother Liu is mighty, domineering and leaking!"
Liu Wei smiled, at this time, it is better to keep a low profile, advance the safety zone, find out the forces of these two parties, Lao Tzu's things are not so easy to take!
Liu Wei took Wang Bo and Zhao Yuanyuan to prepare to enter the safe zone, during which Wang Bo saw that Zhao Yuanyuan was also with Liu Wei, although he had many questions in his heart, but he did not raise them at this time.
Liu Wei walked outside the iron gate, the person guarding the door Liu Wei knew, he was a bastard student with a bit of fame in the school, called Zhang Ke, with a group of fox friends and dog friends around him, he was a bully of the school, such a character was sent to guard the gate, what kind of character would this head be?
"Brother Zhang Ke, we want to go in..."
Bang!
"Don't give Lao Tzu a relationship, Lao Tzu doesn't know you. If you want to come in and pay your taxes first, don't give me all these useless things!" Zhang Ke looked at Liu Wei with a rebellious expression.
"That's easy to say!" Liu Wei took out nine portions of food from his backpack and handed them to Zhang Ke.
Zhang Ke's eyes were straight when he saw the food Liu Wei took out, obediently, instant noodles and yogurt bread, there is actually a Snickers bar, shit, when did this dick silk become so rich?
In fact, Zhang Ke knew Liu Wei, and he participated in the solitaire game two days ago, but he didn't expect that Liu Wei would really come back alive and bring a lot of food.
Zhang Ke took Liu Wei's food a little dazed, and then after reacting, he put the food in a plastic basket and asked his brother to open the door.
Seeing the door open, Liu Wei breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid that something unexpected would happen.
After the three of them entered, because the iron door was opened, a few people also wanted to blend in, but they were beaten by Zhang Ke's people with sticks and their heads were bleeding, at this time Zhao Yuanyuan pulled the corners of Liu Wei's clothes, Liu Wei understood what Zhao Yuanyuan meant, she wanted to let herself help them, but, in this last world, it would be good to be able to take care of yourself, where is there still the kung fu to take care of others?
Liu Wei shook his head at Zhao Yuanyuan, Zhao Yuanyuan didn't say anything more, she actually understood that it was not easy for Liu Wei to protect herself, thinking of this, Zhao Yuanyuan followed Liu Wei's footsteps.
And Wang Bo, who was looking at Liu Wei and Zhao Yuanyuan from the side, although he was also a first-time brother, but seeing Zhao Yuanyuan and Liu Wei's intimate actions, he still saw the clues, and he was convinced by Liu Wei in his heart, and couldn't help but sigh, tsk, Viagra is really good enough, it is really a model for my generation!
"Wait!, did Lao Tzu let you go?!" Zhang Ke suddenly spoke.
The three of them stopped, but Liu Wei put his hand into the coat, if Zhang Ke made any changes, Liu Wei didn't mind exposing his hole cards too early!
"Anything else?" Liu Wei said to Zhang Ke with a smile.
Zhang Ke looked at Liu Wei's backpack and smiled a little malice.
"The wrong amount!"
When Liu Wei heard Zhang Ke's words, he frowned slightly: "What do you mean by this?"
Zhang Ke said: "What do you mean? Originally, it was enough for the three of you to come in for nine portions of food, but..."Zhang Ke cast a malicious look at Zhao Yuanyuan: "Now that this woman is added, the price is not the same thing!"
At this time, Wang Bo on the side couldn't stand it, Wang Bo was oppressed by Zhang Ke and them before, and scolded: "You don't fucking endlessly, you said that one person has three copies, and now you are given nine copies, what are you not satisfied with? Is math taught by a physical education teacher?"
Zhang Ke pushed Wang Bo and said viciously: "What?
Wang Bo was also anxious, and was about to rush over, but Liu Wei stopped him in time, and lowered his voice to tell him not to be impulsive.
Liu Wei understood that now was not the time to clash with them, and the time was not yet ripe.
Liu Wei smiled at Zhang Ke: "What do you say you want to calculate?"
Zhang Ke smiled proudly: "You still know the current affairs, and if you don't call for food tax for two people, you can live in." ”
For two?!
Zhao Yuanyuan and Wang Bo on the side were a little surprised, they didn't expect Zhang Ke to open his mouth and be so ruthless!
Zhang Ke said to Liu Wei: "You saved this woman, I don't want more, right?"
At this time, Liu Wei understood, it turned out that this Zhang Ke recognized Zhao Yuanyuan. Originally, Zhao Yuanyuan sent a distress message in the group, and at that time she promised that the person who saved her would be rewarded, it seems that Zhang Ke thought that he had saved Zhao Yuanyuan, so he got so much food.
However, how could Zhang Ke understand that Zhao Yuanyuan's heavy reward for herself was not food, but...
Moreover, even if he adds more food for his own people, it is harmless for Liu Wei, and there are about a month's rations left by Li Weiming on the truck in the warehouse, and he is not only rich but also trenched!
However, Liu Wei also took out the "food tax" for two people and gave it to Zhang Ke with a painful face: "Brother, I really don't have much..."
Zhang Ke put the food given by Liu Wei directly in his pocket, and he patted Liu Wei on the shoulder with a smile: "Hehe, you kid is very cooperative, come in, pick any empty room!" After speaking, Zhang Ke returned to the iron gate.
When Zhang Ke walked away, Wang Bo said to Liu Wei: "Boss, why do you want to give it to him? This kid is obviously blackmailing!"
Liu Wei waved his hand: "More is better than less, now we haven't gained a firm foothold, don't bump into them." ”
Wang Bo nodded, his eyes lit up: "You're right, you must make this old boy look good when the time comes." ”
"Liu Wei... Thank you..."Zhao Yuanyuan whispered thanks beside Liu Wei.
She really didn't expect that Liu Wei would give Zhang Ke two more food taxes for her, and she herself understood that Liu Wei had never received a piece of food on her body.
However, in order to let himself enter the safe zone, Liu Wei paid the food tax for three people, and at this time, Zhao Yuanyuan began to have a great improvement in Liu Wei.
"Let's find a place to settle down first, and then we'll talk about it then..."
Looking at Liu Wei's smiling expression, especially the last sentence, when the time comes, it will make Zhao Yuanyuan's pretty face flushed.
She knew that Liu Wei must want to let herself at night...
Thinking of this, Zhao Yuanyuan was a little scared, but there was some vague expectation.
Liu Wei took the two of them away from the iron gate, because Liu Wei always felt that someone was staring at him.
When Liu Wei and the others entered the dormitory building, in a certain room in another dormitory building, the window here could clearly observe everything that happened through the iron door.
At this time, a tall man was standing in front of the window, and the iron gate was still noisy, but the man's smile was still there, and this smile made people feel a little chilled.
"Now is the end of the world, a world of the jungle, and those who can't even pay the food tax die and die. Tingting, are you right?"
And on the couch in the room sat a girl, apparently the man was talking to the girl on the couch.
The girl sat upright, and when she heard the man's words, she replied mechanically: "Yes, yes..."
And if Liu Wei is here, he will find that this girl who is submissive to men is Zhang Tingting!
