Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Broker
After waiting for more than an hour, it came to seven o'clock in the morning, the sky began to gradually brighten, the time of the curfew had passed, the third city gate opened on time, and there were survivors equipped with weapons inside one after another, three in a group, a group of five, looking at the posture, they were ready to hunt zombies at this time and obtain Yuan Jing.

However, their strength is not strong, they have not reached the state of first-class soldiers, and the power of firearms is not strong, and some people even do not have firearms, only a fork or a scimitar.
Hong Qiang estimated that when this group of people returned to Linchuan Town, they would probably have fewer people, and the specific number would depend on the number of Yuan Crystals they obtained.
There are seven people guarding the city gate, among which the one who collects the Yuan Crystal, the strength is in the first class, it is estimated that he is the leader of this group of people at the city gate, and some of the Yuan Crystals collected will definitely flow into his pocket.
The strength of the remaining six people is all below the first-level soldiers, but the physique points are also above eight points.
Carrying a sniper rifle, Hong Qiang swaggered to the city gate, because he was strong, a few people guarding the city gate could also detect it, therefore, adhering to the view of bullying the weak, they did not interrogate him impolitely, only handed over a little Yuan Jing, Hong Qiang strode across the city gate.
He then went to a quarantine station, where he was allowed to enter after a brief test that the inspectors determined that he did not carry a source of infection from a zombie.
At this point in time, most of the gates on both sides of the street are closed, and there are very few shops that open to do business.
The cool wind blew in the morning, stirring up a puff of dust, hitting the plaques, and then smashing on the doors of the houses on both sides of the street, adding to the yellowing and desolation.
For this sense of depression in the last days, Hong Qiang has long been accustomed to it, and he discerned the direction, he followed his memory, and after walking through more than a dozen remote alleys, he soon came to the location of the restaurant in his memory.
The restaurant is three storeys high, located in the area under the jurisdiction of the Tsing Yi Gang, called 'Yijia Restaurant', with a nice name, but it is actually a hotel, and it is also a place to release pressure.
It is a paradise for men to release stress, and it is also a holy place for women to pan for gold to maintain their lives, and in layman's terms, it is a brothel that serves one-stop services, and in the 21st century, this industry is naturally in the category of breaking the law, but here, it is a legitimate industry.
In the last days, men have a higher talent for evolution, so in this place where strength is king and there are no rules, women can only beg for food under some capable men.
Selling one's body is a very serious matter before the end of the world. But after the end times, most human pupils have become hollow, and the soul? I'm sorry, but this thing is for sale, and as for the body, it's just a skin.
Except for a very small number of powerful women, the rest of the women are either slaves, or abandon their bodies and minds and let others ravage, only in this way can they live a better life and live longer.
Therefore, in this era, even the noble actresses and goddesses in the past, in order to survive, they inevitably have to choose to compromise with reality.
Approaching the hotel, at a glance, Hong Qiang found that the piece of gold with the flower pot was still lying there, but at this time it had been covered by dust Its beauty, if you didn't look carefully, you really couldn't see that it was a piece of gold.
But even if you see it, no one will pick it up, people in the last days, look at gold like a scrap, can't exchange it for yuanjing, can't exchange it for food, can't use it to survive, how precious it was in the past, but what's the use now?
When a work of art? Sorry, life is in question, how many people still care about art?
At this time, the time is less than half past seven, the main body of Yijia Restaurant is a building that has been built before the end of the world, so the overall framework of the restaurant is relatively high-grade, and it is different from those dilapidated shops next to the city gate of Linchuan Town, the doors of those shops are iron doors, and the doors of Yijia Restaurant are rotating tempered glass doors.
Through the glass door, at a glance, although the lobby of the restaurant is not brightly lit, it is much brighter than the light outside.
Hong Qiang's eyesight is good, and he found two good-looking women standing in the lobby of the restaurant from the outside, but the clothes are quite formal, and it seems that they should be the front desk lady of the restaurant.
In the last days, every move must be cautious, the owner of this Yijia restaurant heard that he had something to do with the leader of the Tsing Yi Gang, so Hong Qiang did not directly and recklessly steal the piece of gold.
Thinking about it, he seemed to have a plan, looked up at the sky, and then at the sparse figures on the street, he turned around and left the vicinity of Yijia Restaurant quickly.
In Linchuan Town, there is a type of person called the broker, and the broker has a special name before the end of the world, called the intermediary.
In the past, the intermediaries belonged to the middle-level people in the last days, but in the face of disasters, all the order collapsed, and with the change of the pattern of the times, these intermediaries became the lowest characters in the last days.
To put it bluntly, they belong to the category of people who have no ability, no courage, and dare not venture outside, and their source of livelihood depends on the charity of others.
Of course, the so-called charity is not the charity of good people to beggars, and brokers are not beggars, they also need to pay a corresponding price to do things for others while accepting gifts from others.
Although Hong Qiang has not been in contact with this kind of broker, he knows their specific location.
After walking all the way through more than a dozen dark and rancid lanes, Hong Qiang came to a gathering place for brokers.
As soon as he arrived, five brokers who had been waiting here early in the morning for business swarmed around, but they did not dare to get too close to him, for the black and gold sniper rifle on his shoulder gave them a hint of awe.
But in order to live, they had to grovel in front of Hong Qiang, shouting hard and selling themselves.
"This eldest brother, looking at your face, are you not familiar with Linchuan Town? It only takes half a yuan crystal, and you can know everything about Linchuan Town. ”
"Big brother, are you looking for someone or an errand? Command, I will do it for you beautifully, and you will be satisfied! A little metacrystal. ”
"Big brother, are you still short of errands? Reward me with a meal, and I can run you errands for a day. ”
“……”
These five people, with a look of hope in their eyes, are all trying to sell themselves, they are in rags, they look no different from the beggars before the end of the world, at a glance, all of them have yellowed skin, thin and thin, obviously malnourished.
After looking at it, Hong Qiang's heart moved, and he shouted the five of them together into a dark corner.
At first, these people were a little scared, Hong Qiangniu was tall, strong, and had firearms, they were really afraid that he was going to kill people for fun.
In the last days, there are many people who are frightened by disasters, some of them have become cowardly and willing to become slaves, while others have become mentally ill.
In Linchuan Town, there are some people who are in good spirits and sometimes bad, and they like to shoot weak human beings as fast, and the people of the three major forces, even though the residents in Linchuan Town are not threatened by zombies, but the killing in the town, as long as it does not affect the interests of the three major forces, they will only turn a blind eye.
But Hong Qiang's next words dispelled the fear of these people, and instead made them extremely excited.
