Strictly speaking, Ding Chen's worries are completely justified. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe impact of population growth at any time is never a simple food problem, especially since the total population of the apartment was not large in the past, and the sudden increase in the number of people is almost the same as the total population of the apartment in the past, which will obviously affect the demographic structure of the apartment. From this point of view, it is indeed likely that taking these people in will cause serious damage to the stability of the apartment.

Ding Chen didn't believe that Dad couldn't think of this problem, and even if Dad couldn't think of it, Hoss would remind him, so Ding Chen judged that there must be some reason why they couldn't refuse this proposal.

So he said to "him", "Can't Ben Cheng provide them with shelter?" ”

"Like I said." "He" was still in a gentle tone, but he had already faintly shown his displeasure, and he said to Ding Chen: "Bincheng can't accept them. ”

"But you've just bought a bunch of people." Ding Chen glanced at Su Ying and pointed out mercilessly. Maybe "he" is indeed a big man, but for Ding Chen, if you offend him, you will suffer, and if you don't offend him, you will also suffer, so it is better to take care of your own mood first.

"He" was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting Ding Chen to ask this question. He looked at Ding Chen and asked, "Do you think you can treat these people as slaves?" ”

This time it was Ding Chen's turn to be surprised, he looked at Su Ying, "You bought those people to be slaves?" ”

Su Ying pursed her lips helplessly, "Not everyone has good luck. ”

Although the women and children who bought the apartment are self-contained, they are not much different from the residents of the apartment except that they cannot move freely, in fact, with the strength of the apartment, unless you want to give these people leaves, it is not easy to think differently.

According to Daddy's vision, after a few years, these people will be integrated into the apartment system, and even these differences will disappear, and they will become official residents of the apartment.

Because of this example in front of him, Ding Chen always thought that Bincheng bought people to increase the population, but he didn't expect that those people were really used as slaves when they were bought.

"He" glanced at Ding Chen deeply, and said lightly: "It seems that you are very unfamiliar with the word slave?" ”

Ding Chen nodded a little embarrassedly, so "he" turned his head to his father and said, "In the next few days, please support me first, and I will hurry up to transfer supplies after I go back." ”

Daddy nodded in agreement. Then Carlo came with two women with wooden trays and brought them breakfast, and the men began to concentrate on eating.

The breakfast in the apartment was relatively simple, and Ding Chen filled his stomach with two bites of three. "He" has a similar personality to him when he eats, unhurried, even if it is a tortilla or pickles, he can eat it very fragrantly, at least it looks fragrant.

He looked at Ding Chen, who seemed to be a little idle, and said softly: "It is said that you are from the north? ”

"Northwest." Ding Chen corrected. Originally, there was not much difference between the northwest and the north for him, and if you consider that he didn't want anyone to find the evacuation pod, he even deliberately misled. But Su Ying told him a lot of things yesterday, so he refuses to carry this pot now.

He nodded, slowly chewed and swallowed the last piece of bread, and then said, "Come with me, by the way, tell me what you saw and heard along the way, I am quite interested." ”

After saying goodbye to his father, the two walked out of the apartment side by side, Ding Chen found that Wang Po appeared not far behind the two, and found that Ding Chen looked at him and nodded and smiled at Ding Chen.

"He" moved his hands and feet while walking, and said with emotion: "When people get old, not only their brains turn slowly, but even their bodies don't obey their commands. ”

Ding Chen snorted, calmed down and didn't speak. I knew on my knees that "he" was not interested in what he had seen.

"He" was really calm, and took Ding Chen directly to the highway, along the way Ding Chen found several secret posts set up by the caravan, and he didn't know how long these sentries had been here. In the past, the caravans in Bencheng did not have this problem, and they were obviously specially set up for "him". It seems that Su Ying said that "he" is a big man, and he doesn't just talk about it.

"He" didn't seem to care if Ding Chen spoke, or rather, he wasn't used to listening to others, so he continued: "Don't you think there's one thing that's strange? He turned his head to Ding Chen, "You shouldn't have been here for more than three months, but you seem to have a deep affection for this place." ”

"You mean I'm against keeping these people?" This time, Ding Chen couldn't pretend to be dumb, he said: "I just think this is beyond the capacity of the apartment." ”

"In fact, you're underestimating the capabilities of the apartment." "Or rather, you overestimate how difficult it is for these people to survive," he said. ”

He walked down the road, pacing slowly, "Considering that you don't know about the existence of slaves, I can assume that you don't understand the cruelty of this world. ”

He said slowly: "What kind of people have lived in this world for more than 20 years and still don't understand this? ”

Ding Chen's heart shrank, and he looked at "him" vigilantly without speaking.

"He" didn't seem to sense Ding Chen's reaction, he turned his head to the north, sighed, and asked, "Do you know the Fourteenth District?" ”

"There are only three districts in one word." Ding Chen said in a deep voice.

"yes." "That's because the Fourteenth District has fallen," he said. He turned back to look at Ding Chen, "I guess you already know about the northerners' southward advance." That's all because the 14th arrondissement is gone. ”

Speaking of this, "he" let out a long sigh and said, "Of course we all know it's a secret, so I'm not going to discuss it with you. ”

"Since it's a secret." Ding Chen said: "Why do you all know? ”

"You mean Cheng Bin and Su Ying?" "He" laughed, "It looks like Su Ying didn't tell you who they were. ”

"He" paused, turned to look at Wang Po, who was not far away, "Every caravan has the responsibility of gathering intelligence, and some or most of them are actually intelligence officers. ”

Ding Chen was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "Every caravan? ”

"Each." "He" looked at Ding Chen, "You are very sensitive, I am very pleased." ”

He looked at Ding Chen, who was thoughtful, "Remember one thing, District 14 is a taboo, don't let people know except for Bincheng." ”

"Why Ben Thanh?" Ding Chen asked. He wanted to ask some more about the 14th District, but he was afraid of arousing "him's" suspicions.

"He" glanced at Ding Chen, thought for a while, and said, "Because most of us should have become a member of the Fourteenth District. ”

"He" sighed again, "a word of advice, hide the picture behind you, and if you have the chance, you better wash it off." ”

Ding Chen hesitated for a moment and said, "That's just a painting." At the same time, he thought in his heart, sure enough, Su Ying had already told "him".

"He" gave him a faint look, "That's not a painting, that's a ......" "He" thought for a moment and said, "I guess the person who sent you into the large-format body painter didn't tell you that it was actually a totem with a special meaning." So before you have the ability to inherit it, it's best to wash it off first. ”

"He" tilted his head slightly, and said with a sigh, "The helicopter that picked me up is here." ”

After speaking, he patted Ding Chen's shoulder, "There is one thing you have behaved very well, don't admit the Fourteenth District to anyone, you have nothing to do with it, I will report it like this when I go back." ”

"Don't let us old guys down." "He" finally said.
