Chapter Seventy-Eight: Self-reliance

"Of course you don't have it personally, but there are people in the base, there is a way to hide gold in troubled times, so many people who have fled in the base, how can they bring some gold and jewelry with them, right?" Loulan said when she heard this.

"That's someone's private property, I can't rob it, right?" Luo Pengfei shook his head when he heard this, and said: "Looting people's wealth is not the work of the national army, and I can't do this." ”

"Don't you have food and fuel in your hands? You can trade those things for them. "Loulan is about to be stupid by this inflexible Luo Pengfei.

"Everything in my hand is the state," Luo Pengfei said with a straight face when he heard this: "Using the things of the state to exchange for people's wealth is tantamount to robbery." ”

"Then what do you mean, my pea shooter can only give it to you for nothing," Lou Lan said a little speechless when she heard this.

"Of course it's not for nothing" Luo Pengfei immediately came to his senses when he heard this, and said: "As long as I have a pea shooter, I can send a convoy back to the city, get the equipment and raw materials of the factory back to the base, and solve the production problems of some daily necessities. How about you being promoted to colonel? ”

"It's useless for you to promote me to be a general," Loulan said when she heard this: "It's hard for a good woman to cook without rice, without zombie brain crystals and gold, I will provide you with 100 pea shooters at most, and there will be no more." ”

"100 pea shooters, how can that be enough?" Luo Pengfei's face immediately sank when he heard this, and he said in a deep voice: "Loulan, now that the national crisis is at hand, can't you forget the righteousness of the country and the nation for your own interests?" ”

Loulan was speechless when he heard this, the zombie brain crystal in his hand can almost be exchanged for about 1,000 pea shooters, but the dream treasure is not enough for the time being, his original plan was to get some gold in this base and subsidize his losses, but who knew that this Luo Pengfei was an iron rooster, not only did he not pull out a dime, but he also wanted to squeeze himself dry, but others still took advantage of it, after all, now he also has to feed more than two million survivors, and the pressure is great.

After being silent for a long time, Loulan finally said:

"General Luo, the reason why you need a pea shooter is nothing more than two reasons, one is to send the army out to collect more supplies, and the other is to get zombie brain crystals, isn't that so?"

"That's right" Luo Pengfei said when he heard this: "I have so many people, and I am also tasked with collecting zombie brain crystals, this pea shooter is very important to me." ”

Hearing this, Loulan nodded and said:

"Okay, if I say that I have a way to get you supplies and brain crystals, and also allow me to get enough zombie brain crystals and gold to provide you with enough pea shooters, would you be willing to accept it?"

"What's the solution?" When Luo Pengfei heard this, he said: "As long as it does not harm the interests of the people, I can accept it." ”

"Not only will it not harm, but it will also greatly benefit the people." Loulan smiled when she heard this, and said, "Isn't our national policy distributed according to work?" My approach is completely in line with the national policy. ”

"Oh? You talk about it right away" Luo Pengfei was overjoyed when he heard this, and said: "As long as it is beneficial to the people, I will definitely support it." ”

"Okay, since that's the case, then I'll say it" Loulan immediately said when she heard this: "My method is to mobilize the masses and be self-reliant." ”

"Mobilize the masses and be self-reliant?" Luo Pengfei shook his head a little puzzled when he heard this, and said, "I don't understand? ”

Loulan smiled when she heard this and said:

"General Luo, since you can think of arming the army with pea shooters and going out to collect materials and crystals, why can't you take a bigger step and simply arm the people with pea shooters, and let them help us go out to collect materials and crystals, and by the way, we can also get some benefits for ourselves and improve our lives? A lot of people don't have enough to eat these days, you know? ”

"Armed people?" Luo Pengfei thought for a while and said, "You say be specific, I'm very interested." ”

"The specific method is that you will send weapons and vehicles, and I will send pea shooters, recruit some young and strong survivors, arm them, and let them return to the interior to collect all kinds of daily necessities and zombie brain crystals, and then sell them to us." When Loulan heard this, she immediately said: "In this way, they can rely on their ability and adventure to get more living resources, and we can also get what we need." ”

"Yo ho, this method is good, let me think about it" Luo Pengfei patted his head when he heard this, and said: "The vehicle is equipped with your pea shooter, so you are not afraid of zombie siege, if you want to take something, drive the car there, and transport it back; And with weapons, they can kill zombies, get brain crystals, and reduce the number of zombies, which is perfect! ”

"That's what it means" Lou Lan said when she heard this: "As long as these adventurers can go out, they will definitely be able to bring back all kinds of supplies, and when the time comes, you won't have to think of a way to feed them at all, they can also help you feed other people, you just need to exchange them with weapons, fuel and other things." ”

"However, there is everything in the interior now, and once the adventurers go out, will they come back?" When Luo Pengfei heard this, he said: "All I can provide is weapons and fuel, they may not need it then, right?" ”

"They're going to come back, even if they don't need anything." Loulan smiled when he heard this: "When people have wealth, they will seek safety, and now only the base is absolutely safe, and after getting the materials, they will be able to get rich overnight, of course, they have to go to a crowded place to spend and relax, otherwise what's the point of getting rich?" And where are the most people? The base is here, of course. ”

"Okay, that makes sense." Luo Pengfei thought for a moment when he heard this, and then said: "Just do as you say, let's get him a hundred pea chariots out first, a group of five, recruit some adventurers, and I will arrange someone to train for a week, and this will be done." ”

"However, let's talk ugly things in front" Loulan hurriedly said when she heard this: "These hundred pea shooter chariots, they will return 5,000 zombie brain crystals to me, in addition, in the future, I will have to charge 50 zombie brain crystals for every pea shooter I provide, in addition, all the zombie brain crystals obtained by the adventurers, I don't want one, you will collect them uniformly and hand them over to the military department, how about it?" ”

"The materials have to belong to me" Luo Pengfei waved his hand when he heard this: "I have two million people to feed, you can't use a pea shooter to grab supplies from me." ”

"I don't need anything but gold." Loulan smiled when she heard this and said, "You can rest assured of this. ”

"I suggest that you add some gold to the price of the pea shooter," Luo Pengfei frowned when he heard this, and said, "Do you think that under the current situation, those guys will get gold back when they go out?" What is the difference between gold and scrap metal now? ”

"Regarding the matter of gold, I naturally have my own way" Lou Lan said with a smile when she heard this: "It seems that General Luo, you still care about me very much, which really touches me." ”

"Of course I care about you" Luo Pengfei was stunned when he heard this: "You are now my soldier, have you forgotten?" Colonel Loulan. ”

"Why are you colonel again?" Loulan heard the black line in her head: This official was promoted, it's too fast!

"General Luo, I still have two small things to ask you to help with."

Before saying goodbye and leaving, Loulan suddenly remembered what happened to Bai Baiyun, so she told Luo Pengfei about his situation, and asked him to help send this guy and his fiancΓ©e to Benri Kingdom, and at the same time informed Luo Pengfei of the details of several of his classmates, asking him to help find their surviving family members across the country.

These two things were just a piece of cake for Luo Pengfei, so he naturally agreed and asked Loulan to wait for good news.
