"Old village chief, you mean there's a large settlement to the north?" Knowing that there was a large survivor settlement to the north, Chen Yuan was very interested. Population was one of Chen Yuan's greatest concerns in the last days. The so-called lonely hand is difficult to sing, if it is only him, it is difficult for these people to last long in the last days.

"That's right." The old village chief replied, "It's 30 kilometers away due north." It was originally a large prison, surrounded by high walls and two large thick iron gates, which made it very safe. And the housing inside is also comfortable, gathering no less than 2,000 survivors. But if you want to go inside and live, there are many rules. After returning from Dachun, he said that if he wanted to enter the city, he not only had to pay a large amount of money to enter the city, but also had to pay a living fee once a week after entering the city. If you can't pay it, you'll be kicked out. ”

"Entrance fee, housing fee?" Chen Yuan asked suspiciously: "What do you use?" Money? How much? ”

"How can you! Now what is the use of money. Food, clothing, gold and silver jewelry, electrical appliances and anything can be used, but money cannot be used. The old village chief said: "As for how much to pay, it is said that it depends on the mood of the toll collector." If you're in a good mood, I'll charge you less, and if you're in a bad mood, I'll want you more, anyway, there is no specific price standard for these things. Da Chun, the poor child, was targeted by his daughter-in-law, so someone deliberately manipulated him, and charged a very heavy fee every time, so that he couldn't even pay a week's living expenses and was kicked out. ”

Wei Chen asked suspiciously, "Didn't he go out to collect supplies?" ”

"Yes." The old village chief sighed and said, "Da Chun said that when he first joined this settlement, he would go out with the material collection team in the city to collect the materials left before the end of the world. But what I finally found will be charged nearly 7% when I go back to the city, saying that it is income tax. In fact, this proportion is much higher than others, and it is obvious that someone is targeting him. It will also affect his teammates on the same team, and they will have to pay the same high percentage of taxes. So after only two days, there were no other teams in the Celestial City willing to accept him. How could he alone collect any supplies in a field full of zombies. ”

When Zhang Fatzi heard such an injustice, he was also indignant, and he asked, "Didn't he resist?" ”

"It's useless." The old village chief replied, "Da Chun said that the guards inside are all surprisingly strong. Da Chun knew that he originally had a lot of strength. After entering the Heavenly City, he received such unfair treatment, of course he had to resist. But soon he found that he couldn't beat even a very thin looking toll collector, let alone the guards. ”

Zhang Fatzi and Chen Yuan took a look, and when they heard this, they knew that the other party had discovered the secret of the spirit flesh.

Chen Yuan then asked, "The old village chief, do you know how their weapons and equipment are?" ”

The old village chief shook his head this time and said, "It's not very clear, Da Chun only said that some of them have guns in their hands, but I don't know how much. ”

"Is Da Chun there? Can we talk to him? ”

"Hey!" The old village chief sighed again and replied: "No, I was crazy at first, and then I ran out and couldn't find it while we weren't paying attention." It's likely that the zombies have already found ......," the old village chief said, and he couldn't bear to continue. It's just that he said to Chen Yuan carefully: "So...... We don't dare to join other big forces now. Thank you for your understanding. ”

Chen Yuan didn't mind, shook his hand and said, "Understand, it's okay, we don't force it." But he also said: "But the old village chief, we sent troops this time, and the loss was not small, bullets and medicines were all consumed......

Before Chen Yuan's words were finished, the old village chief interrupted him and said, "I know, I know. ”

The old village chief thought that Chen Yuan saw that his people were unwilling to join their forces, so he was asking him for payment. Although the old village chief felt that this Chen Yuan's face became a little fast. But this is also normal, people use so many troops to risk saving people, and they also spend so many bullets, so naturally they have to pay off. And as long as they don't use force, it's good to coerce their people to join their forces.

So he said very simply, "We will definitely make up the payment for you." We can give food, gold and silver jewelry. It's just that we don't have a lot of things here, so ......" The old village chief didn't dare to look at Chen Yuan, for fear that he would be too little. They have guns in their hands.

Chen Yuan smiled, knowing that the old village chief had misunderstood, he immediately said, "Old village chief, you have misunderstood. I'm not looking for you to get paid. ”

"Don't get paid?" The old village chief was a little confused.

"To be exact, I don't need anything that belongs to you." Chen Yuan explained: "But the old village chief, there are some things we have to make clear. This iron mine was originally ownerless, and you occupied it first, and it is your thing. Supposedly, we won't want anything from the mine. But after you were attacked by zombies, you gave up the mine, and I snatched it back from the zombies. Then this mining area will become our share, and some of the ownerless things in it I think we should also have the right to dominate. ”

The old village chief thought about it, although he was a little reluctant, but finally nodded and said, "Of course, of course." So what do you want? House? Machine? ”

Chen Yuan shook his head, he said, "We don't want any of this." When you retreated, you retreated into the mines. The zombies didn't miss a shot when they attacked you, so the main part of the mine is still yours. But we need to take away the iron ore that has accumulated outside, as compensation for the loss of our military expenses this time. ”

"Iron ore?" The old village chief was overjoyed and thought: What is the use of this kind of play now? They don't have an iron furnace here, it's just a pile of waste rocks to them. So he naturally readily agreed: "Of course you can." You can have as much iron ore as you want. ”

Chen Yuan nodded and said, "That's okay." However, this time we came in a hurry and did not bring a transport truck, so these iron ores may have to be kept here for an extra day or two. Chen Yuan just made a rough estimate that stacked outside, the iron ore that has been screened needs at least 5 large trucks to transport, about 300 tons. If the market price of iron ore in the past is used, it is enough to make up for their losses this time.

"No problem!" Chen Yuan only needs these useless iron ores, and the old village chief also understands that he has misunderstood Chen Yuan, and he is unhappy and happy in his heart.

But at this time, another survivor came out of the mine, hurriedly next to the old village chief of the runway, and said to him anxiously: "Old village chief, Li Dazui and his daughter-in-law hold the injured Li Dazui, she won't let us get close to her man." In another ten minutes, it will be half an hour! What can I do? Go and persuade the daughter-in-law of the Li family. ”
