Volume 1 The Endless Wilderness Section 88 Crying
A few days later, by Dr2612-10-5, Quaker returned to the water station and brought news to Chen Xing that another tribe was willing to migrate.
Chen Xing immediately set off and rushed to the "Sand tribe" within two days. This is a tribe of Western Continent culture, the chief's name is "Clark Sander", a stout middle-aged man with a beard, and the people of the tribe call him "Bearded Chief".
Like the village of Gari, the Sander tribe is a relatively moderate group of displaced people. The biggest difference between them is that the bearded chief has nine wives and more than thirty children, making him a super family.
The bearded chief warmly entertained Chen Xing and offered to marry his eleventh daughter to him. Chen Xing euphemistically postponed, on the one hand, he is still developing, not the time to start a family; On the other hand, the chief's eleventh daughter was thicker than Aaron, and it was a bit unbearable.
Subsequently, the chief proposed to let his second son "Hook Sander" be Chen Xing's bodyguard. Chen Xing met and agreed. Hook was born tall and tall, two meters and three meters tall, and stood there like an iron tower. He is good at using a big stick mallet, rounding his arm, and smashing it down with a stick, and the sickle beetle can't stand it.
In the end, the two sides agreed to move in mid-October. After the talk, Chen Xing went back to the underground water station.
At this time, the first migrants from the village of Gari also arrived. Except for the women who are in charge of cooking, most of them are young adults. When they arrived, they immediately set up tents, built stoves, and dug ditches in the area designated by the engineers.
At the same time, in an office on the third floor of the town office in the front section of the commercial street of Orchid Town, a somewhat balding middle-aged man with glasses was sitting behind a desk. Holding their hands together on the table, they are grinding the ruby ring on their middle fingers.
A young officer sat opposite him, his clothes with an open neckline, looking a little disheveled, his face scragged, his head hanging down, and his spirit was a little sluggish.
This young officer was Wu Hao, who had just been released from the confinement room, and the middle-aged man opposite him was his own uncle Wu Chengqian, who was also the deputy mayor of Orchid Town.
In the system of the United Kingdom of Ambergris, the mayor is a nobleman of the principality, while the deputy mayor is a local official sent by the parliament of the principality. The two belong to different systems and can check and balance each other to a certain extent.
Although the mayor has absolute power, he can remove the deputy mayor at any time. But in this way, it is easy to cause dissatisfaction among the upper nobles of the principality, so the mayor will not remove the deputy mayor unless it is absolutely necessary. And the deputy mayor will also respect the mayor's decision to the greatest extent.
"Second uncle, you have to make decisions for me." Wu Hao raised his head and said with resentment on his face, "Lu Dasha, that dog thing, has locked me up for more than ten days, and I can't see it now." There is also that Chen Xing, the dog fights the human power. Not only robbed my woman, but also killed my men. Second uncle, you must help me, otherwise...... Otherwise, I won't live! Wu Hao shed tears as he spoke, as if he had suffered some great grievance.
"Eh, what nonsense. You are the only seedling of our old Wu family, how can you say that you will die! Wu Chengqian frowned and said in a deep voice.
"Then you will remove Lu Dasha." Wu Hao said.
"Nonsense, Lu Jinhe is the captain, how can he say that he will withdraw." Wu Chengqian slapped the table vigorously and taught him a lesson.
"Then, then Chen Xing can always do it." Wu Hao's voice weakened a lot.
"This, this......" Wu Chengqian hesitated, looking a little hesitant.
"Second uncle, you shouldn't even be afraid of a team leader, right?" Wu Hao provoked.
"You know what!" Wu Chengqian scolded, "He is a celebrity now, you can't let your uncle touch the mayor's moldy head, right?" ”
Wu Hao listened, didn't speak again, just lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Okay, okay, when I have a chance in the future, the second uncle will naturally help you vent." Wu Chengqian's voice softened and comforted.
Wu Hao was silent for a while, raised his head, and said, "Second uncle, I don't want to stay in the city guard, I want to be the captain of the security team." ”
"Are the City Guards bad?" Wu Chengqian was puzzled, "With sufficient food and high status, where can the security team compare?" ”
"Look at Chen Xing's water station, as long as it develops, it will be a soil emperor." Wu Hao said.
"This ......" Wu Chengqian pondered for a long time, his face changed several times, and finally slapped the desk vigorously and said, "Okay, when I find an opportunity, I will drive him away and let you take his place." ”
Wu Hao suddenly showed ecstasy, nodded and said, "Thank you, Second Uncle!" ”
"By the way, that girl from the Yeyang family, I asked someone to inquire...... Wu Chengqian said again, "She seems to have some problems with her family, so she came out to work alone, don't worry too much." But then again, she has always been the eldest lady of the Ye Yang family, and there are still three nails in the rotten boat, so you'd better not provoke her. The Ye Yang family is a big family, and we can't afford to mess with it. ”
"Got it." Wu Hao nodded and said.
While the uncle and nephew were discussing things in private, Chen Xing came to Aliya's gun shop.
"Captain Chen, we meet again~" Aliya twisted her small waist and walked over. The smile on his face was sweet and charming, as if it was made of honey and made of sugar. The waist is even more soft as if there are no bones, and it feels like it will collapse at any time, but standing there again is really a bit against the conventions of physics.
"What can I do for you?" Her small mouth opened slightly, revealing two small sharp tiger teeth. Mature and charming, revealing the cuteness of a girl, it is simply a machine that leads people to crime.
"I got a batch of goods, are you interested in taking a look?" Chen Xing asked straight to the point.
Alia immediately put away her smile and asked seriously, "What goods?" ”
"Have you heard anything new lately?" Chen Xing didn't answer, but asked rhetorically.
Alia thought for a moment and showed a charming smile, "Could it be, it's the one lost by the city defenders, right?" ”
"Almost." Chen Xing did not deny it.
"Where's the price?" Alia then asked.
"Half the market price." Chen Xing said dryly. This batch of goods, looking at the entire Orchid Town, is the only one who dares to accept it.
"Deal!" Alia held out a small hand to him.
More than an hour later, Chen Xing took Aliya to the room at the water station.
He had asked the ant colony to bring in some of the firearms and supplies in advance so that Aria could see them.
"You can really do it, in front of the city defenders, you transported such equipment away, and it hasn't been discovered yet, even I can't do it." Aliya said with a pun, obviously interested in how Chen Xing did it.
"There is a saying in our hometown that rats have rat paths, snakes have snake paths, it's just a little trick, it's not a big deal." Chen Xing said half-modestly, half-foolishly.
"Hmph~" Alia glanced at him with disdain, didn't dwell on the issue anymore, and turned to check the equipment.
