With building materials and enough manpower, a lot of things can go naturally. The rainfall in the wasteland is not too much, not too little, and there is still an occasional light rain. The temporary warehouse built by the tent is not a good place to protect from the rain, so at the beginning of the operation of the brick machine, Zhou Yuanqiang's first request was to build several huge warehouses inside the woods of the small oasis to store grain and tobacco.

Tobacco is a treasure, and its appearance will definitely make people with smoking addiction crazy. Many people can skip meals, but definitely not smoking. In the depressing era of the last days, cigarettes can relieve the mental pressure of many people, and can also refresh the mind, and are the spiritual food for countless people. Especially as long as it is a man, most of them smoke, which also creates a market existence like a giant cigarette.

The attack of the extraterrestrial virus was too sudden, and people who fled in a hurry would not take care of these things, even if they had cigarettes, they were just a pack or two of them with them. One or two packs, for people with a big addiction to smoking, will be smoked in half a day, how can they be smoked for a few years? Naturally, in the past few years, except for the occasional one that can be found in the village, like the one in the city, don't think about it. Where tens of millions of zombies gather, who would dare to touch this mine?

Invisibly, cigarettes have definitely become a scarce commodity in the last days.

In the last days, everything is based on survival, at the beginning, a large amount of land that can be planted is all used to grow food, who will care about growing tobacco? After a few years, the settlements with food shortage are still tight, and the settlements with no food shortage will try to grow tobacco and other crops in small quantities. The Grand Canyon has such a large amount of land, and it doesn't dare to grow too much, let alone a place like a wasteland settlement that is seriously underfrequented by food?

Of course, through these days, Zhou Yuanqiang still knows that the wasteland settlement, they also grow tobacco, but the amount is pitiful, and it is all specially supplied to the superiors of the Administration, and there will be no trace of it flowing into the outside market at all. When it is outrageous, a pack of hardcover cigarettes can be exchanged for enough food for a week. This shows how far people's desire for cigarettes has reached.

The tobacco in his hand seems to be a profiteering existence, but it is also a bomb, and if it is not handled well, it will bring disaster.

The reason why Zhou Yuanqiang was not in a hurry to make a move was this, not that he didn't want to, but that he didn't dare. Before you don't have enough power to protect it, it's better not to be exposed. Fortunately, Zhou Yuanqiang has enough food and can recruit a large number of people. Just as he thought, in a week's time, just a small oasis of more than a hundred people expanded more than ten times. Even the armed forces, which only have more than 10 people, have increased by 30 times to more than 300 people.

In the Wasteland Settlement, with the exception of the Authority, it is rare for any team to have large weapons, and if they do, they are rare. As long as the wall is built well, it is equivalent to having the power of self-preservation. Now that the wall is about to be completed, at a glance, it looks like a straight line stretching into the distance, and then bending, enclosing hundreds of acres of land. This posture alone makes people feel a little proud.

Of these hundreds of acres, part of it will be used for accommodation, and the other part is Zhou Yuanqiang's plan, but first build some small factories, such as stamping factories, etc., at least until they can also manufacture light weapons.

Now Zhou Yuanqiang hates this place a little, not to mention that the city is far away, there are not too many desirable resources around, like you to make weapons, you always need all kinds of steel, right? What about Huoyao? Do you rely on yourself to get it from the modern age? You can do this in a short time, but after a long time, even a fool will find out the problem here. But now Zhou Yuanqiang has no way to solve this problem, not to mention that weapon manufacturing and bullet production are in contact with the nerve of the Wasteland Settlement Administration.

In the face of them, the current self is still too weak to anger this behemoth.

Tobacco has a huge market, that's for sure, but no matter how there is a market, you must know him, so Zhou Yuanqiang still decided to go to the wasteland settlement. Like the location of the small oasis, of course, there will be eyeliner in the settlement, but there is no telephone, no mobile phone, and the transmission of messages can only be completed by relying on an off-road motorcycle, not only in terms of time, but also in terms of safety transmission.

Xu Yuhai, who was in charge of intelligence, almost stayed in the wasteland settlement, and with the guarantee of Qiu Guorui and others, he successfully obtained the pass and could enter and leave the central town freely. Usually he rarely returns to the little oasis, and only one or two nights a week.

The news just received is that several caravans from the Grand Canyon have arrived at the wasteland settlement.

It's been nearly a week since they came back, but it's only a journey of more than 300 kilometers, and it took them a week, which is really unbelievable. But think about it, when they set out from the very beginning of the organization, they expected that it would be a "cup", and the wine and food they brought would not have much market at all, and if they did not deduct the cost of personnel, they would be able to make some money. However, in terms of calculating the consumption of bullets for personnel, I am afraid that it will be lost.

Zhou Yuanqiang got the news that these caravans were very miserable, and the losses were very large, and the grain and wine they brought were really not able to sell at any price in the slowly saturated market of the wasteland settlement.

"Maybe we can eat their food?" Zhou Yuanqiang thought about it for a while, but decided to do it. Isn't all they want is perfume and other detergents they bring with them? For himself, it's not worth much, and in the black factory, it's easy to get the goods, and he doesn't suffer a loss by exchanging food with them.

In the small oasis, everything is very lacking, like a car, except for a truck, Qiu Guorui's pickup is more pleasing to the eye, Zhou Yuanqiang's choice, of course, is only him.

With Xu Dali and a few guards, he rushed towards the settlement.

The price of an off-road vehicle is not cheap for the terrain of the wilderness, and the price of a civilian version of the off-road Hummer is enough to scare you. The military version, you don't have to think about it, even the Authority only has a few vehicles, how can you miss one or two for you? Off-road military trucks, in particular, are not to be counted on, and the Authority is staring at them specifically for transporting oil and salt, and each one is numbered, checked every day, and no one can figure it out.

"Why don't you bring a few from Hyundai? Anyway, there are millions of gold in hand, and there are still more than three million left to build a company, and there is no shortage of money to buy a Hummer. ”

But then, Zhou Yuanqiang shook his head again.

If there is one, it will not attract the attention of others, and it would be too ostentatious to get a few cars. What's more, its own storage space of 16 cubic meters cannot fit a Hummer nearly 5 meters long. If you want to transport these big guys, you can only dismantle them, or upgrade the ring by two levels, otherwise it is really difficult to do it.
