Nearly two hundred people had gathered in the Dreadnought camp, and it had suddenly become a center of activity and attention in the outer city. People communicated and exchanged in a lively and orderly atmosphere unprecedented in the outer city, and for the first time there were no violent disputes under such a large gathering. Outside the tent, the people who are in tattered clothes, unkempt, and holding all kinds of weapons and begging for a living on the verge of death every day have found a typical example of a living superhero and god incarnation that they can see, hear, and testify to themselves, and they are looking at the tent with eager and even fanatical eyes, waiting for Lin Zaishan in the tent to appear. A few people even began to worship on the top of the tent where Lin Zaishan was.

Sergeant Sun, who has always been like a great enemy, couldn't help but be a little shocked and "uncomfortable" when he saw that these usually rude and rude "outlaws" were so "well-behaved" today. He returned to the tent and asked Lin Zaishan, who was worried about the loss of his memory: "What about these people outside?" ”

Lin Zaishan said without hesitation: "Those who come are all guests, and they are entertained with good wine and meat." ”

"Good wine, good meat? We have a lot of good meat, but there is only a little good wine, wouldn't it be a pity to entertain them? ”

"Good wine only tastes good when you drink it with everyone, right, beauty?" Lin Zaishan asked Qu Youyou next to him.

Qu Youyou had no concept of "good wine" in the eyes of men, and casually agreed: "That's it, what you say is what you say!" ”

"Okay, then I'll go and prepare the 'big feast'."

Sergeant Sun came out of the tent and was about to speak, when he suddenly saw hundreds of people coming in the distance, and the first person was Principal Wang.

It turned out that Principal Wang was entangled by many beggars or hungry survivors who had lost the ability to go out and had no one to support him in his office, and he decided to go to the dreadnought team to find Lin Zaishan for help. These difficult groups surrounding Principal Wang mistakenly thought that Principal Wang was going to take them to "above" to discuss the law, so they all followed them like shadows, and attracted more needy people along the way, forming an army of "disadvantaged groups", marching towards the camp of the dreadnought team.

Sergeant Sun didn't know why, he was afraid that these newcomers would take the opportunity to make trouble or loot supplies, so he hurriedly took out his weapons and stepped forward. Seeing this, the other members of the clan who came to "worship" the hero shouted: "Protect our hero!" So they showed their weapons one after another, but Principal Wang was frightened.

Principal Wang hurriedly faced everyone's guns and explained: "Don't do it, everyone! We just came to Captain Lin for help. ”

Sergeant Sun motioned for everyone to put away their weapons.

"Captain Lin, Captain Lin, come out!" Principal Wang's loud voice penetrated the crowd and entered the tent.

Lin Zaishan, who was worried about the loss of memory in the tent, heard Principal Wang's voice, and somehow, his memory recovered in an instant and he remembered his name. He jumped up from the cot excitedly, rushed out of the tent, and was startled to see so many people outside, and instinctively beckoned to everyone: "Hello everyone! ”

The main ones who came with the attitude of worshiping heroes were the members of the other teams, and when they saw Lin Zaishan, they immediately rejoiced and shouted in unison: "Captain Lin! Captain Lin! Captain Lin! ”

Lin Zaishan, who had never been so "treated" by others, was "frightened" by the new height of his prestige, and while waving to everyone, he hurriedly said to Sergeant Sun: "Hurry up and prepare wine and meat to entertain, according to my eyes, everyone seems to be eager to eat me!" ”

Sheriff Sun said: "You still have a way, and you actually think of controlling this level of big scene by satisfying your appetite!" But if you do this twice, sooner or later, the family of our dreadnought team will be destroyed by you. ”

Lin Zaishan nodded and said, "Let's get through this first." He smiled at Principal Wang, "Principal Wang, I'm here!" ”

The group of needy people brought by Principal Wang stared at Lin Zaishan and said: "This should be the official in charge of relief, you see how well he is raised, his station is full of luxury cars and piles of materials, these materials should be used to relieve us, right?" Otherwise, how could they have gotten their hands on supplies of this quantity and specification? This kid must have embezzled a lot of our life-saving money! ”

The people in difficulty were thinking about the materials of the Dreadnought team, and a roar of cars came, and Zhiyangyang, who went to deliver the task, took Zhao Feiyan and other survivors and a group of staff from the material department of the Special Committee to the Dreadnought team station.

"Captain, Director Yang Changsheng wants to buy a large number of materials from our trip." Zhiyang Yang said while enjoying a cigarette. Along the way, the cigarette in his mouth attracted his attention. In the outer city, cigarettes are more expensive than gold, they are an out-and-out luxury, and they can smoke the original cigarettes before the end of the world, which is a symbol of strength and status, and the bosses of many clans cannot afford to consume every day, let alone a few minutes like Zhiyangyang. Yang Changsheng of the material department was just going to take a turn in the task management office, as soon as he smelled the smell of Zhiyangyang's cigarettes, he immediately passively committed a cigarette addiction, and even put down the shelf, begged for one from Zhiyangyang, and then promised to buy the materials of the dreadnought team at the highest price on the spot.

"Really? I haven't figured out which supplies to sell yet, at least I'll have to wait until I discuss them with Sheriff Sun. Lin Zaishan didn't need half a second to figure out the form, and he decided to take the opportunity to knock on the bamboo pole of the material department.

"Oh, Captain Lin and Sergeant Sun, you see that it's not too early now, and we have come all the way to buy your supplies, which is enough to show our sincerity. Don't hesitate. I promise to give you the highest price! ”

Lin Zaishan said with a smile: "Our brothers risked their lives to get supplies, just to make a fortune. Among these materials, food is not enough, but these cigarettes, wine, and daily chemicals, which are luxury goods with a little less, are not only sought-after but also have huge room for appreciation. Director Yang, even if you give us the highest price today, in the long run, our interests will be seriously damaged. ”

"Hey, Captain Lin, that's not how the accounts are calculated." Yang Changsheng said cunningly: "In any case, we represent the Special Committee, and your meeting the acquisition requirements of the Special Committee will greatly enhance the Special Committee's impression of you, which will be very beneficial to your development in the new provincial capital in the future." ”

Lin Zaishan motioned to Sheriff Sun to answer, and Sergeant Sun immediately understood, and said: "Frankly speaking, if it weren't for the face of the Special Committee, our batch of goods would definitely be sold on the black market for more than twice the profit of the Special Committee's bid!" ”

Yang Changsheng said: "I believe that both of you are well-versed people, and I will never let you suffer, otherwise everyone will not trade with the Special Committee in the future." ”

Lin Zaishan said: "Director Yang, you have to come up with some tangible benefits." ”

"Don't worry! I'm very practical this time. Yang Changsheng replied confidently: "As long as you agree to this large-scale purchase request, I will provide you with two gift packages." ”

"What pack?"

"First, for every 20,000 first-class crystals in the transaction, we are willing to sell one acre of land in the non-central area of the outer city at a preferential price equivalent to 80% of the market price, and the location is of your choice; Second, after the transaction is completed, you will be given an additional 20 points. ”

"Wait a minute." Lin Zaishan pretended to be angry and said: "I'm angry when it comes to buying land, Director Yang, look at what the land that the Special Committee sold us last time was like?" Can this level of development also be called real estate? As soon as I bought the land, I was still excited to think that I was already a resident of the new provincial city and a city citizen; But as soon as I arrived at the scene, I found that this is not back to the countryside, it is better to be in the countryside! ”

"Ahem, that...... Captain Lin, if I'm not mistaken, you had to pick this piece of land yourself. Yang Changsheng gloated and said: "Did I make it very clear, you can choose the location, you can't blame me if you are not satisfied with your own selection." ”

Lin Zaishan sneered: "Director Yang, I am highly educated, and I have not worked in the system. Are you playing those tricks that I don't know? You prepare different plots for sale in different tiers, and do everything possible to prioritize the sale of the junk plates. Thinking that a client like me deserves only to buy your worst property, right? ”

After hearing this, Sergeant Sun suddenly realized, and thought: "It turns out that the special committee still has this layer of mystery in real estate speculation, and I have a great insight into the tricks of unscrupulous officials and businessmen. ”

Yang Changsheng was hit by him, his face turned red, and he defended: "Captain Lin, you can't say that, our special committee still knows the team we are cooperating with. ”

Lin Zaishan's tone suddenly changed, and he grabbed Yang Changsheng's hand and said, "Director Yang, I'm just thinking about the interests of the brothers of the Dreadnought team, and I'm just complaining casually." I understand that you also have your own struggles and considerations, which are all normal and understandable. The so-called once born, second ripe, and third times are friends. I believe that Director Yang will take good care of us in this transaction. Lin Zaishan said and took out a box of cigarettes from Zhiyangyang's pocket, took out one and handed it to Sheriff Sun, and then he smoked another one and put it on his nose and pretended to smell it, clipped it to his right ear, and then put the cigarette box back into his pocket. Yang Changsheng greedily stared at Lin Zaishan's every move, and finally saw that Lin Zaishan didn't give him a cigarette, and his disappointment was revealed.

"Does Director Yang smoke?" Lin Zaishan asked knowingly.

"Pump, pump!"

"Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot to give you a cigarette just now. Director Yang came to one. Zhiyangyang, don't you want to light the fire for Director Yang? ”

Yang Changsheng took a beautiful puff and listened to Lin Zaishan say: "Director Yang, I don't usually smoke much, I don't know how this cigarette will sell in the new provincial city in the last days?" ”

"Good, absolutely!"

"Really? I have a way of getting a batch of these well-preserved cigarettes every week, and the number is not too many, ten or eight at a time. ”

"That's not much, is it? It's a lot. ”

"Director Yang, if you're interested, I'll leave you some every time."

"Good, good!"

"Look at today's transaction ......" Lin Zaishan took out the box of cigarettes from Zhiyang Yang and put it in Yang Changsheng's pocket, and the latter immediately said: "The price of all goods will be increased by 10%, and an additional 3 high-quality rifles and 500 rounds of ammunition will be given after the transaction!" ”

"Good! Happy working together! ”

Lin Zaishan specially found Qin Huanchang, Qu Youyou, Han Xiaoying, Zhao Feiyan and other female members, and reminded them to quickly choose their favorite materials before trading with the special committee, and all the women expressed their gratitude. Half an hour later, Yang Changsheng led his hands to download a truckload of goods and left contentedly.

The other members of the team who came to worship Lin Zaishan were envious when they saw the dreadnought team making a lot of profits, but they didn't have too many negative feelings - the hero team should be like this, and it would be strange if they couldn't get supplies and wealth.

But the feelings of those who came with Principal Wang were different, they had mistakenly thought that these materials were used for their own relief, and now they saw a large number of materials at their fingertips being loaded and transported away by the special committee, just like the roast duck that had been delivered to their mouths was snatched away by dogs, and the gold in their hands was taken away by Lao Wang next door. The imbalance in the hearts of these already hungry people has been growing, and they have unknowingly reached a peak in a short period of time, and they desperately need to vent.

At this time, Principal Wang squeezed through the crowd, took Lin Zaishan's hand and returned to the tent, checked left and right, and said in a low voice: "Captain Lin, you have to help me, help everyone!" ”

"Principal Wang, what's going on?"

"Captain Lin, as you know, I was appointed by the Special Committee as the director of the Welfare and Relief Department, responsible for providing relief to the needy groups living in the outer city. In the past few days since I took office, I have already had a general understanding of the number and composition of the groups living in difficulty in the outer city. So far, there are about 150 people, mainly old, weak, sick and disabled, who have lost the ability to venture outside the city and survive. They have no means of subsistence, and they are basically begging and picking up garbage to get by, and this afternoon they gathered and pestered me, begging me to help them solve their problems. I called the top from the office, and they said, 'No money, no food, no idlers, no matter who wants to live in the new provincial town, you must contribute, you can't get something for nothing!' In a few words, I was sent away, and I was asked to figure it out on my own. I was a scholar with no hands, and my daily salary was only 10 first-class crystals, barely enough to sustain three meals a day, and I couldn't even afford to pay the rent of an apartment in the inner city. They told me to try to solve it myself, and I really couldn't do anything, so I came to you for help. ”

Lin Zaishan said: "Don't worry, I will definitely help within my ability." ”

"Half of them hadn't eaten anything decent for a few days, and a seventy-year-old man told me that since his son's death, he had been able to pick only some grass roots and leaves every day to feed his stomach, and now he even had a green face. There is also a child in his early 10s, who squats next to the stationing of other teams every day, picking up discarded bones to gnaw. The most pitiful is a thirty-year-old single mother who has to sell her body every day for the sake of her five-year-old daughter. When I think of these poor people, I feel a pain in my heart, and I can't think about tea and dinner, and I can't sleep well. ”

"Well, Principal Wang doesn't need to worry too much." Lin Zaishan comforted: "I don't dare to say anything else, this problem of eating is not difficult to solve!" ”

"Oh? How are you going to solve it? ”

"There are large mutant beasts outside the city, as long as you shoot one or two more roe deer every day, it is enough for hundreds of people to eat."

"But who wants to insist on providing this extra roe deer every day?"

"Just leave it to our Dreadnought team."

"I believe in your ability to hunt, but you also have to solve the problem of where to eat, such as the restaurant, the canteen, the problem of a large number of utensils, and the problem of cleaning and food hygiene. Eating with hundreds of mouths is not a trivial matter. ”

"Just having enough food and supplies every day will not be a problem for us Intrepid Troopers; But we don't have enough manpower to provide food and beverage services such as cooking and washing dishes for so many people in need. ”

"I can arrange for these difficult groups to solve the food service problem on their own. If they have to help them with even the basic daily activities of lighting a fire, cooking, eating, and washing dishes, they are parasites and not difficult people. ”

"Okay, then it's settled."

"Captain Lin, I have another reluctant request."

"You're welcome, please give me orders."

"I want to open this basic security canteen for the needy at the entrance of the outer city, that is, near my office, but I expect that the special committee will never provide human, material, or financial support. Can you be a good person to the end, send the Buddha to the West, and even help me solve this point? ”

"No problem! I'll help you build this basic security canteen for the needy tomorrow, and I dare to pack a ticket, and by tomorrow night at the latest, at least a thatched hut can be built, and the needy can enjoy dinner there. ”

"Great! On behalf of those in need, I thank you! ”

"Principal Wang, I have one sentence that I have to remind you first."

"Tell me."

"Now is the last days, not the past. People in difficulty deserve sympathy, but it does not mean that difficulties are justified. Anyone who criticizes others because of their difficult situation will die an ugly death sooner or later. Personally, and indeed the entire team of dreadnoughts, I can not hesitate to promise to help those in need, but if any of them try to morally kidnap or even blackmail us on the basis of our sense of morality and conscience, then blame us for being ruthless. ”

"Captain Lin, please rest assured, although my Lao Wang is a pedantic person, I can't accept the kind of person and thing you said!"

"Okay, let's go out and meet everyone."
