Chapter 30 The Food Crisis

An An is gone.

Chi Hua, who was standing at the head of the city and watching the truck gradually move away, now finally understood Yi Feng's cold mood a few days ago, compared to Britney a few days ago, An An now doesn't even have a chance to turn back step by step.

Thinking of this girl's madness last night, the corners of Chi Hua's mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly, it seemed that he really wanted to work harder to marry her back quickly.

As soon as he thought of marrying An An, Xiao Yu's shadow suddenly appeared in his mind, and Chi Hua encountered a choice that all men would suffer for, and Chi Hua couldn't help but hammer his head hard.

"Brother Hua, your girlfriend is gone again, don't you think about it!" Seeing Chi Hua's hammer head laughing for a while and suffering for a while, Li Xiaofei couldn't help but persuade on the side.

Chi Hua glanced back at Li Xiaofei, "Why do you use 'again'?" ”

The little fat man didn't answer Chi Hua's question head-on, "Brother Hua, you want to open something, don't they all say that the old doesn't go, and the new doesn't come?" Sister An An is gone, maybe Sister Xiao Yu will be here soon. ”

"Are you comforting me? Why don't you open which pot to mention? Chi Hua almost couldn't help but throw the little fat man directly into the city.

"I'll take a break with you, how about we go and visit the trading market below? You might even find something interesting. Li Xiaofei was still unconscious, and came up to pull Chi Hua as he spoke.

Chi Hua had no choice but to be dragged away by Li Xiaofei.

As long as there are people there is a demand for transactions, and instead of letting people trade privately, it is better to put all transactions on the table, so that all transactions are under the watchful eye of Phoenix, and Phoenix can benefit from it.

Phoenix's trading market has been open for some time now, and is open every Saturday morning. Phoenix vacated more than a dozen shops near the city gates, a few of which were kept for their own use, buying everything that Phoenix could use, and also selling a small amount of some temporary surplus items in the city, such as coal, worn-out clothes, and blades eliminated by the guards.

The rest of the shops charge a small amount of rent for people from outside the city, but few actually rent them, and more people choose to set up stalls directly on both sides of the stone road. People in the last days always have some strange things in their hands that they regard as treasures, so there are often all kinds of antique calligraphy and paintings, strange stones and jade on the stalls, and even some directly catch mutated animals to sell.

For the last days when there is no entertainment, it is a very interesting way to have a market to wander around. Qin Yurou is one of the frequent customers, and now Qin Yurou will not only bring Xie Xiaodan and Duan Jiangning, two playmates, but also Li Xiaofei and Jin Yu, two entourages who are used to being bullied.

Therefore, when Li Xiaofei said that he accompanied Chi Hua to relax, the first thing he thought of was to visit the market. For Chi Hua, there is nothing valuable in the market that can really attract his attention, because the things that are really useful for urban construction will be taken away at a high price by the special person arranged by Song Yu at the first time, and the seller can ask Phoenix City to pay for anything such as points, food, gold or weapons.

But Li Xiaofei was very happy about it, and what Li Xiaofei, who was taken by Jin Yu, was really interested in not the various things sold in the market at all, but the beautiful girls in the crowd who went to the market.

Chi Hua suddenly pulled Li Xiaofei, who was still looking around, and stopped in front of a stall. There were only a few ordinary skins on the stall in front of him, but it was the person who set up the stall that really made Chi Hua stand down. The man who set up the stall had only one arm. The man bowed his head, wrapped in a tattered leather coat, and his long, messy hair, which had not been washed in months, obscured the man's face.

Chi Hua squatted down in front of the stall, and Li Xiaofei, who didn't know why, also squatted down, the man raised his head slightly, his unkempt beard couldn't block the once angular face, and his dull gaze couldn't hide the sharp and chapped lips in his eyes, and he could still vaguely see the perseverance when he was tightened.

"Instructor Chen?"

There was a hint of panic in the man's eyes, and his voice was low and hoarse, "I'm sorry, you recognized the wrong person." ”

"Instructor Chen, I'm Chi Hua, he's Li Xiaofei, don't you remember?"

"I'm sorry, you recognized the wrong person." The one-armed man rolled up the few skins in front of him and clamped them under his arm, and was about to walk out of the city.

As soon as Chi Hua stretched out his hand, he pressed it on the one-armed man's shoulder, and the man couldn't take a step forward, "You are no longer the Chen Guojun I know." ”

The man's body trembled slightly, "Chen Guojun is dead, and he is just a waste person living in this world." A wreckage who doesn't need the pity of others! ”

Chi Hua's heart seemed to be pricked, Chi Hua understood that in Chen Guojun's heart now, the stronger the person, the more intolerable others could not tolerate others to see their cowardly and down-and-out side.

Chi Hua's hand let go, Chen Guojun's body was stunned for a moment, and then strode out of the city.

"Don't you even want your daughter?" Chi Hua suddenly shouted behind him.

"What do you say? You repeat! The skin under his arm fell to the ground, and Chen Guojun turned around sharply.

"Your daughter is still alive."

Chen Guojun rushed up in a few steps, grabbed Chi Hua's arm with one hand, "Tell me quickly, where is my daughter?" How is she now? ”

"Jiaojiao is in the city, and she's very good now."

"Chi Hua, take me to see her quickly!" Chen Guojun's eyes were full of brilliance again, and he shook Chi Hua's shoulder vigorously with one hand.

Chi Hua's face finally showed a smile, "Are you going to see the child like this?" Jiaojiao can say that his father is a soldier. ”

Chen Guojun looked down at the tattered leather coat on his body, and reached out to touch the beard on his face, and suddenly became at a loss, "What should I do?" What can I do? ”

Chi Hua smiled and hugged Chen Guojun's shoulder, "Let's go, let's take a shower and get a haircut with me first, then change into a military uniform, and then stand in front of Jiaojiao is the officer back then!" ”

The little girl was still a little puzzled when she was called out of the classroom by the teacher, and the moment she saw Li Xiaofei, she immediately smiled, "Uncle Chubby!" Uncle Chi! ”

Then she saw the tall and mighty soldier behind Chi Hua, the little girl was stunned for a moment, and then she cried out and threw herself into Chen Guojun's arms crying.

Chen Guojun stepped forward and hugged his daughter in his arms, tears flowed uncontrollably from the eyes of this strong man, "Jiaojiao, Dad has finally found you!" Dad has finally found a home! ”

Who said that a good man only sheds blood and does not shed tears, and he is a real man with affection and righteousness, blood and tears!

Chen stayed because he found his home in Phoenix and rediscovered hope for life.

Jiaojiao usually still lives with Zhang Zhanyuan's family, because Chen Guojun, as a soldier, usually has no time to take care of her. But the fundamental reason is that Chi Hua did not easily let go of the rejuvenated Chen Guojun.

Chen Guojun is now not only an evolutionary, but also the chief instructor of the Doomsday Phoenix Escort Brigade, and he was instructed by Chi Hua to build the escort brigade into a powerful army according to the standards of a field army, rather than a loose escort team.

......

In the conference room in Phoenix, the atmosphere was a little depressing.

Not only the three-person committee was there, but also the three regiment commanders, the chief instructor, the four captains of the special operations squadron, Ouyang Minglang and Li Xiaofei from the Intelligence Department, Qiu Ying and Zhong Liyi from the Internal Affairs Department, and Xie Xiaodan from the Medical Department were all there.

At this time, it was Song Yu who spoke, "This time I convened everyone to the meeting to inform you of one thing, that is, there is not much food in the city, and the supply can last for 20 days according to the current standard." ”

Song Yu's words Everyone present had a heavy face, those who survived from the last days knew the importance of food, how many people fought to the death because of a bite of food, and how many camps disappeared because of food.

"The food is being consumed a little faster than we expected, and according to the original plan, the food reserves in the city should be able to support until the beginning of spring." Chi Hua said with a frown.

Song Yu glanced at Chi Hua and Yi Feng coldly, "It's not that you two are making a lot of trouble, the soup soup for those people outside the city is not food, and most of the things purchased in the open market city are used for grain, if there are no two additional consumptions, it will be the same as you expected." ”

Chi Hua touched his nose a little embarrassed, and looked sideways at Yi Fengleng, but found that Yi Feng's cold eyes, nose, mouth, and mouth sat calmly as if it had nothing to do with him.

Chi Hua was so angry that he stopped looking at him and said to everyone: "Since this is already the case, I want everyone to come together to think of a way and come up with an idea together." ”

After Chi Hua finished speaking, Jiang Peng said: "I think the easiest way is to stop the grain supply outside the city, and then reduce the food of the residents in the city, so that it can last until next spring." ”

"No brains!"

Seeing that someone directly scolded Duan Jiangpeng and was about to explode when he stood up from his seat, he turned his head and saw that it was Qin Yurou who spoke, and sat back directly in embarrassment.

Ouyang Minglang and Li Xiaofei on the side couldn't help themselves from laughing.

Chi Hua also held back a smile, coughed pretending to cover up and said: "Jiang Peng, you are right, you are throttling, whether it is cutting off the food outside the city or reducing the food in the city, it will affect the people's hearts, once the people's hearts are dispersed, it will be difficult to reunite, and to fundamentally solve the food problem, we must solve the problem from open source." ”

Among the people, only Zhou Boyuan, who joined later, was considered an outsider, and Zhou Boyuan hurriedly said: "Our escort group can increase the scope of hunting and increase the supply of meat to the city as much as possible." ”

Chi Hua nodded, "This is a solution, but just the little prey harvested by hunting can't alleviate the food crisis in the city at all." ”

"If you want me to say that the fastest way to get food is to rob it, now in this world, either you die or I live, let's go and grab a few camps!" Duan Jiangpeng stood up again.

Chi Hua's eyes lit up, and he laughed, "I also have this intention, it seems that I want to go with everyone." ”

"Now is the most difficult time for the green and yellow to catch up, the small camps around may not be in good condition as ours, if you want to make a harvest, you must move the two big fish of the Gate of Heaven or the Light Alliance, and everyone must be ready to start a full-scale war with one of them." Yi Fengleng finally spoke, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he poured a scoop of cold water first.

The scene was quiet again, although Phoenix City was not afraid of any party, but all the people here were smart people, the Light Alliance and the Gate of Heaven were now fighting fiercely, and it was the best policy to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and now it was really worth the loss to take the initiative to go up and insert a lever to lead the disaster to itself.

"I have one more suggestion!" It was Chen Guojun who was attending the meeting for the first time who spoke, and everyone's eyes were focused on Chen Guojun.

Chen Guojun said four words softly: "Southern suburbs grain depot!" ”
