Chapter 500: Life and Death Are Unpredictable

A week passed quickly, and it was finally time to harvest the mutated sweet potatoes.

In the past seven days, the number of survivors in the base has skyrocketed, beyond everyone's imagination, directly making the number of survivors in the base reach more than 200,000!

Among them, the number of survivors from the surrounding forces, large and small, is about 10,000.

These people are all professionals who responded to Chang He's call and gathered in Ningqiu City.

In addition, there are tens of thousands of ordinary survivors, most of whom are from Beixian County, who have fled from Beixian County and have nowhere to go, and are gradually attracted to Ningqiu City.

When the number of people increases, naturally all types of people begin to appear.

But from the beginning of the disaster, Chu Chen implemented the dictatorial policy, so for those guys who have a detached personality and like to stir up trouble, Chu Chen naturally didn't say a word, and drove out of the base after registering directly, and never accepted it again!

After driving out several groups of survivors, the remaining survivors are finally much more honest, and the arrangements for the base have begun to be strictly implemented and completed, after all, there is food and drink here, and it looks very safe at the moment, and there is no survivor base around, so it can be more comfortable than here.

As for the problem of fresh water, Chu Chen was not only thinking of a way by himself, but also talked to Zhang Yuan, Shi Yingying and others, but there was never a perfect solution.

In desperation, Chu Chen was ready to take back the mutated sweet potatoes in the field, personally escort them to the Peace Forest, and hand them over to Wei Shuo, while also wanting to ask him if the business alliance had any way to solve the freshwater problem.

More than 20,000 laborers worked hard for three days to dig out all the mutated sweet potatoes in the field.

In addition to the base canteen, a part of the mutated sweet potatoes and sweet potato seedlings were left, in addition, Chu Chen himself and Xiao Qi also left some of the sweet potato seedlings for planting in the following batches, and the other sweet potato seedlings and mutated sweet potatoes were all personally loaded into the space ring by Zhang Yuan.

Seeing the huge mutated sweet potatoes being washed and put into the space ring, Zhang Yuanle couldn't close his mouth.

Of course, seeing this situation, Chu Chen was really relieved, those food stamps owed to Wei Shuo were finally settled, and there were even a large number of food stamps available, which could allow Ma Yi to open up and reserve all kinds of materials to prepare for the coming hot summer.

Early the next morning, when the druids and the survivors in charge of farming began to work in the fields again, Chu Chen also took Ma Yi, protected Zhang Yuan and the others, and the thousands of space rings they carried, to the Peace Forest.

The reason why Zhang Business Alliance was able to take out so many space rings at once was because as the output of magic crystals became more common, and the level of alchemists increased, the price of space rings plummeted.

Of course, thousands of space rings, it is estimated that at this stage, only the business alliance can be taken out casually, and other forces can't even think about it, even Chu Chen, if he really wants to take out thousands of space rings, it is not a simple matter.

On the way to the Peace Forest, Chu Chen deliberately went to Yangcheng County to learn about the current situation in Yangcheng County.

Originally, the two professionals who stayed in Yangcheng County and were sent by Wei Quan had already been sent away, after all, even Wei Quan had become someone else's prisoner, and the two of them jumped off the beam clown, and they couldn't make any waves at all.

On the edge of the urban area of Yangcheng County, Zhou Ling and dozens of earth magicians also built a city wall about three meters high and about one and a half meters wide.

As for the bandits outside Yangcheng County, they were also easily exterminated by Zhang Min with two hundred knight attendants.

The number of survivors rescued from the bandits has reached nearly a thousand, and these survivors are willing to return to Yangcheng County, Zhang Min also let them return to Yangcheng County, and those who are unwilling to stay in Yangcheng County, Zhang Min took them back to Ningqiu City.

……

After arriving at the Peace Forest, Chu Chen saw Wei Shuo waiting at the edge of the forest from a distance.

Regarding the situation in Ningqiu City, Zhang Yuan naturally wanted to report it to Wei Shuo, so it was not surprising that he knew that Chu Chen and the others were coming over today.

As soon as he saw Chu Chen, Wei Shuo hurriedly greeted him and quipped at Chu Chen: "Chu Chen! You're really, you've been back for so long, and you don't come to sit with me! ”

Chu Chen shook his head with a smile, and defended himself as if it were true or false: "I can't help it, I owe a huge amount of money behind my buttocks, and I can't even sleep, no, I finally raised it, and I immediately escorted it over in person!" ”

Wei Shuo also smiled and said something nice: "Alas~! That's your misunderstanding, you're my brother! Even if the three-month deadline is up, I can't rush you, then I'll definitely find a way to carry it myself! ”

While chatting with Chu Chen, Wei Shuo also led everyone into the Peace Forest and headed to the headquarters of the Business Alliance.

After coming to the hall of the Business Alliance headquarters, Wei Shuo ordered Zhang Yuan: "Old Zhang, please take Ma Yi to the warehouse to calculate, remember, give me the highest selling price, but don't treat my brother badly!" ”

After Zhang Yuan received the order and left with Ma Yi, Wei Shuo looked solemn and said to Chu Chen: "Chu Chen, let's go to my office to talk, there are some things, I think you don't know yet." ”

Raising his eyebrows, Chu Chen followed Wei Shuo to his office.

After entering the office, Wei Shuo did not speak directly, but waited for his secretary Chen Qian to bring a pot of tea, and after leaving, he put on a look of wanting to speak and stop at Chu Chen.

Chu Chen was confused, and asked Wei Shuo directly: "Our Wei Great Alliance Leader, if you have anything to say, what is a big man doing so indecisively?" ”

Reluctantly pulling the corners of his mouth, Wei Shuo said to Chu Chen: "Chu Chen, Old Man Yu, he seems to have had an accident!" ”

"Something? What happened to Uncle Yu? ”

Frowning tightly, Chu Chen asked in surprise: "I personally sent them to the Xicang Forest, and they were safe and sound all the way, how could something happen?" ”

With a light sigh, Wei Shuo said, "Is it really Xicang Forest? I was skeptical before, but since you said that you sent them to Xicang Forest, then it is very likely that the rumors are true! ”

For Yu Sheng, Chu Chen still has a good impression, and now seeing that Wei Shuo has been talking for a long time, he hasn't said anything specific, and he suddenly looks irritable: "What happened?" You can make it clear! ”

With a wry smile, Wei Shuo said: "Our business alliance has also set up a branch alliance in the largest survivor base in Yunxi Province, and the subordinates there sent me a message yesterday, saying that not long ago, a group of survivors with a number of about twenty or three hundred thousand entered the Xicang Forest, and after that, a giant dragon appeared in the Xicang Forest!" ”

"Dragon !?"

Chu Chen pursed his lips and glared at Wei Shuo and confirmed, "How come you also have a branch alliance in Yunxi Province?" You can't lie to me, right? Or is it possible that your subordinates made a mistake? How could another dragon come out? ”

Wei Shuo spread his hands and said with a wry smile: "I don't know if it's true or not, as for why the branch alliance was set up in Yunxi Province?" Didn't you build a bridge for me and get me so much sea salt, I can't find a place to sell it? In Yunxi Province, where there are deep mountains and old forests everywhere, the price of sea salt is the highest, and it is also the best to sell, so I naturally want to set up a branch alliance there to sell sea salt. ”

If it was usual, knowing that Wei Shuo had sold the sea salt to that place, Chu Chen would definitely take the opportunity to raise the purchase price of this sea salt, but now that Yu Sheng's situation is unknown, Chu Chen has no thoughts.

Frowning and thinking about it, Chu Chen asked Wei Shuo, "What's the situation in Xicang Forest now?" Do you know? Why don't I go for a trip? Uncle Yu and them will definitely not be able to deal with a giant dragon! ”

Shaking his head, Wei Shuo persuaded Chu Chen: "Don't worry, think about it, how many days have you been back?" The news that Yu Lao and they met the dragon has already reached us, and the battle between Yu Lao and the dragon has long been over, even if you pass, you will only see a ruin. ”

Seeing Chu Chen frowning tightly and looking worried, Wei Shuo's heart recognized Chu Chen even more.

At the same time, Wei Shuo was also a little lucky, glad that he didn't follow Yu Sheng and migrated to the Xicang Forest, otherwise, I'm afraid that life and death would be unpredictable now!
