If you take a bird's-eye view of the topography of the Grand Canyon settlement, you will find that the entire Grand Canyon seems to have suddenly opened in the wasteland and created something out of nothing. The steeply elevated terrain has created this Grand Canyon that is more than 30 kilometers long and 6 or 7 kilometers wide.

Through the cracks in the Grand Canyon, you can see the scene inside that is like spring all year round. It's impossible to believe that you're inside the Grand Canyon, but outside it's a wilderness that doesn't correspond to the Grand Canyon. Although it does not fly sand and rocks, there is a lot of weathered soil, and only a few tenacious xerophytes can survive in this vast wasteland. The sweep of extraterrestrial viruses has made the wasteland even more desolate, and it is definitely a very lucky thing to be able to see the animals that are still alive in the wasteland, because their numbers have reached the point of extinction.

Looking at the elevated terrain that looks like a knife, the terrain tens or hundreds of meters high, gives people a sense of insignificance and oppression. The original large-scale convoy, and these Gobi-style crack canyons, are simply like ants, insignificant. The blazing wasteland, which seems to be blocked here, is cool everywhere.

The convoy had only arrived five kilometers from the Grand Canyon settlement, and three modified SUAs were waiting on the road early in the morning.

At the beginning was a Mitsubishi ASX, with the roof sunroof removed, a heavy machine gun welded, and the cold muzzle of the gun, in the sunlight, flashed with a ghostly glow of death. A man wearing a vest controls the machine gun, and the target is Zhou Yuanqiang's convoy. If it weren't for the fact that there was a red eye-catching welcome on the windshield of Mitsubishi ASX, Zhou Yuanqiang would have thought that the other party was robbing on the highway in an open manner.

The convoy stopped, and Zhou Yuanqiang greeted them, a middle-aged man who was a little blessed, looking at his style, he knew that he must be a section-level leader who was not big or small in the early days.

"Welcome friends from the Wasteland Settlement to our Grand Canyon Settlement, welcome!" He stood up to the beer belly that hunger did not let him lose, walked up to the pickup, and introduced: "I am Feng Chengming from the welcome department of the Grand Canyon Authority, I don't know who your person in charge is?" ”

Zhou Yuanqiang has not experienced this, and this so-called welcome department should be newly established.

"I'm the owner of the caravan, and I've met Minister Feng." When it comes to other people's land, basic politeness is indispensable. Besides, Ma Chengming was selected to welcome guests, naturally it is not simple material, don't put on small boots for yourself at that time, I am afraid that it will be difficult to mix in this Grand Canyon settlement.

Feng Chengming squinted his eyes and smiled, shook his head and said, "I don't dare to be a minister, I'm just a small deputy minister." "But looking at the look of enjoyment on his face, I'm afraid that there is still a desire to finger this minister's position.

Since he wanted the other party's convenience, Zhou Yuanqiang of course turned it over respectfully and gave the gift that had been prepared a long time ago.

Who would have thought that the wind and sun would come from here, just for this rich and oily errand? Feng Chengming naturally accepted it, and after a little inspection, and found the weight of the gift, he asked his subordinates to put it on the back box of Mitsubishi ASX Jinxuan, and the smile on his face became even closer, and said: "We here, the tax is 25%, but it also depends on the goods." As he spoke, he took out an invoice from his pocket, wrote it on it, handed it to Zhou Yuanqiang, patted him on the shoulder and said, "This time you are just some grain, and you will only be charged an 8% tax rate." ”

Zhou Yuanqiang was originally a little heartbroken, and the 50 level 3 crystals and a little golden tiger he gave away, but he didn't expect that the return he received was beyond imagination. In terms of the value of their own goods, the reduced tax rate of 17% is definitely a huge amount.

At this moment, Zhou Yuanqiang's attitude towards Feng Chengming became more sincere, and it was another round of sycophancy.

When they left, they did not escort them, but sent a young man with the convoy to the Grand Canyon settlement. It seems that the three of their armed SUAs are just giving the coming convoy a dismount. When the bribes are over, they immediately become anticlimactic.

A few minutes later, the entrance to the canyon of the Grand Canyon settlement finally appeared in front of the convoy.

Unlike the Wasteland Settlement, near the entrance to the Grand Canyon, you can see patches of corn, drought-resistant crops that survive well under the sandy soil. In the cornfield, you can still see busy people working hard to take care of them. It may be that the wind is too strong outside, and their growth can only be considered average, but it should be enough to feed people.

After officially entering the Grand Canyon, the entrance is a huge wall made of reinforced concrete, which spans the entire entrance, is six kilometers long, and the height of the construction is 15 meters, and the thickness reaches 5 meters, which is a very grand project. The wall is equipped with many firing ports and some machine gun turrets, and the top of the wide wall also allows soldiers to move and run freely. From Zhou Yuanqiang's point of view, the soldiers here are about two or three thousand people, and it is difficult to capture them without relying on the walls of this front and without three or four times the strength of the troops.

With Feng Chengming's certificate, the convoy easily passed through the walled city gate and really entered the interior of the Grand Canyon settlement.

The long and narrow Grand Canyon, where more than 100,000 humans live, occupies a small area, and most of them live in the middle of the Grand Canyon. So after passing through the wall, you will see a concrete avenue, which was built during the old and new farms. On both sides of the avenue, a variety of crops are also grown, but most of them are mainly corn with a small amount of sorghum. Like rice, it was only sporadically cultivated until the middle of the Grand Canyon.

The cement boulevard is very busy, and all kinds of traffic in and out of the Grand Canyon settlement can only enter and exit on the boulevard. There are also a lot of pedestrians, some who go out to the fields to be busy, and some who are corpse hunters, all crowded on the avenue, it is impossible to imagine that this is like the end of the world.

As soon as Zhou Yuanqiang's convoy entered the Grand Canyon settlement, all kinds of Grand Canyon team forces with eyeliner on the city gate, of course, it is impossible to let go of the benefits that can be seen by the eyes, the larger team is to send important people, some small teams, and even the person in charge has arrived in person.

According to the procedure, Zhou Yuanqiang needs to go to the bureau for registration and will only be allowed to sell goods in the Grand Canyon settlement after dispatching monitoring personnel, so the people who came to contact him just wanted to know what the goods Zhou Yuanqiang brought, what kind of business opportunities he could find from them, and whether it was possible for the two sides to cooperate.

These Zhou Yuanqiang are really not very good, what he didn't expect was that Ren Xinyun seemed to be very talented in this aspect, she completely replaced Zhou Yuanqiang's role, sat on the pickup, and wrestled with these snakes. Especially her eloquent mouth, it is difficult for others to get her words, but she collected other people's information in a few clicks, and I have to say that she was a bit of a waste when she was a tour guide.

The Grand Canyon Settlement is very different from the Wilderness Settlement, all of them live together to form a huge residential camp, well-planned, with city-like streets, fixed commercial and residential areas, and tic-tac-toe commercial areas. There is no distinction between people and people here, and in terms of internal affairs, the wasteland settlement has been left far behind.

Of course, there are many disadvantages of the Grand Canyon settlement, such as the lack of an industrial base, only a few small workshops. The geographical location limited him to the need for a large amount of arable land, so he could only compress the living space, and each person was allocated a small place, barely able to put up a tent. If you want to move, you can only go outside to the planting fields that have already been harvested.

In terms of defense, the Grand Canyon settlement is like a cloth bag, once zombies or enemies break through the siege, it will be a catastrophe for the entire settlement.
