Base Infighting Chapter 1: Smuggling
December 23, 2020, Yoshiwara base.
After living here for a month, Mei Yulang learned a lot of mechanical manufacturing, and reluctantly became a mechanic, and his daily work was to weld steel plates for ordinary vehicles and convert them into semi-armored cars, or make some engines and the like.
This kind of work makes him feel satisfied, because the technical species can be paid, that is, the general currency material volume in the base, the original RMB has been invalidated, except for gold and valuables that can flow between survivors, only the material volume can buy items from the seller, in order to make people actively use the currency, the seller Mei Yulang cannot refuse the material volume.
This also allowed Mei Yulang to have more than 30 material rolls in a short period of time, and purchased some flashlights, gas masks, body armor and other valuables in case of emergency.
That afternoon, Mei Yulang, who had completed the workload, threw his overalls on the machine, took water to wash off the oil on his face, and Chen Mawei, a mechanic on the side, walked over with a bag and said:
"Lao Mei, your physical strength is so good, are you interested in doing something else?"
"Oh? Be all ears. ”
Mei Yulang unscrewed the bottle cap and drank mineral water, buttoned the ear piercing and said, Chen Fatzi opened the bag in his hand and opened a slit, only to see that it was cold medicine and antibiotics and other items, Chen Fatzi said in a low voice:
"This, I got it from a member of the military-police joint search and rescue team, and he asked me to find a way to sell this to the wandering gangsters outside the base, and the transaction is gold, gold! With the gold, we can buy more things at the base, and even buy steel to make some weapons. ”
Mei Yulang: "Wow! Gangster, kind of interesting, how much do you pay me? ”
Chen Fatzi: "5 kilograms of gold, 23 points, my partner gets 5 percent, how about it?"
"Deal, it just so happens that I don't want to make a tent."
Mei Yulang moved a lot outside the tent every night, and he didn't sleep well, thinking about how to emigrate, but the supplies in his hand were not enough, and he had to think of other ways to live in the building.
Fat Chen must have no manpower, just help him smuggle some medicine, nothing.
"Well, wait for me at 7 o'clock tonight by the willow tree in the wood cutting yard."
Chen Fatzi stuffed two pieces of supplies into Mei Yulang's hand, and continued:
"That's a trust fee."
"Thank you." Mei Yulang carried the material roll and left the machinery factory, and the passers-by who were blown by the cold wind curled up and leaned against the corner along the way, although the weather was cold, but Mei Yulang's heart was warm.
He didn't have any fights for a month, he didn't even fight, and it was not bad to look for excitement once in a while, and after lunch, Mei Yulang left a note, and walked out with a travel bag without waiting for Ruriko to come back.
The winter night came quickly, and the sky was dark at half past six, and Chen Fatzi came over in a casual dress, and Mei Yulang saw that he had brought nothing, so he asked:
"Where's the goods?"
"Oops, it's all down there, come on, come on!"
Chen Fatzi led Mei Yulang to the factory, after opening a locked door, there was a document library inside, after he opened the bookcase, he saw a hole in the wall that was 1.5 meters high, and when he entered it was a secret room, the floor was pried open, and there seemed to be a tunnel below, which seemed to have been abandoned for a long time.
Mei Yulang was still thinking about how they would get out before, and sure enough, there was a secret way, but ...... How dare Chen Fatzi take over the business outside the base alone.
"It's not a secret, Lao Mei, when I went out with my buddy a few days ago, he was bitten to death by an infected body, I am not safe alone without a partner, you work reliably, of course I think of you for this kind of good thing."
Chen Fatzi said in a smooth tone, he is 25 years old this year, he was engaged in the second-hand motorcycle market before the end of the world, and his business mind is very flexible, this kind of person can still live a very nourishing life in the last days.
After jumping into the tunnel, Chen Fatzi turned on the flashlight and walked to a canvas to lift it, took out body armor and gas mask from it, put them on, took out a 54 pistol with paint off, opened the magazine and checked it, and gave it to Mei Yulang next to him and said:
"You need this thing to go out, you don't have a lot of ammo, be careful."
"Hmm." Mei Yulang took the pistol and put it on the belt on his back, put on the body armor and gas mask, took out the tactical flashlight, turned it on, and looked in the dim tunnel.
This tunnel seems to have been abandoned for a long time, with green bricks falling to the ground, and some plants that can only grow in the dark through the cracks in the walls, looking a little dark and damp.
"Show you our goods, worth 5 kilograms of gold, which can make us go and live happily for a while, you must not have touched a woman."
Chen Fatzi took out two black slender bags, opened the zipper and said.
"! Aren't you fucking selling medicine? How dare you smuggle arms! ”
Mei Yulang took a step back in surprise, only to see one light machine gun on one side and two bolt sniper rifles on the other side of the two black bags, and some ammunition in the bags.
"Don't be surprised, I do this a lot."
Chen Fatzi put the bag containing the sniper rifle in front of Mei Yulang and explained:
"It's a capital offense for civilians to have guns in the base, let alone sell them to gangsters outside, if I say sell guns, you won't dare to come, but you have to think about that one kilogram of gold, which can allow you to live in the building."
"Oh, okay, okay, isn't it just selling a few broken guns? . ”
Mei Yulang said with a roll of eyes, put the gun bag on his back, Chen Fatzi showed his yellow teeth and smiled, and continued with the two maps with the route drawn:
"We'll get out of the base and into the town through the tunnels, but be careful, there are army scouts and snipers on some floors, and if they find us, we're not far from dead."
"Got it, let's go."
Mei Yulang picked up a dagger from his bag and stuck it on his belt, and impatiently entered the tunnel.
"Wait for me." Chen Fatzi carried the machine gun bag on his back, followed Mei Yulang with a submachine gun in his hand, he hung his headlamp on his mask, looked around cautiously and said:
"There are occasionally two zombies in the tunnel, I don't know how big it is, I heard that it was established in ancient times to hoard supplies, and the people of the Yoshihara government don't know, I also brought it by my partner, he was bitten to death by an infected body when he sold rare chemicals last time, and I fled back in a hurry."
Mei Yulang: "Isn't the reconnaissance team on your head cleaning up zombies within 5 kilometers of the base every day?"
"It's hard to guarantee that you won't mix in some powerful things, just the day before yesterday, I heard that a team was wiped out by a mutant of a certain gecko's characteristics, as if it was because it could be stealthy and invisible to thermal imaging, which was terrifying to think about."
Fat Chen trembled and said, Mei Yulang doubted how he dared to leave the base to smuggle weapons.
