Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Valley Needs a New Leader (Thanks to Zhang Xiaomei's Five Diamonds~)
At breakfast the next day, I noticed that everyone's eye sockets were dark, and it was clear that they hadn't slept well last night.
The strength that has been accumulated with great difficulty has to be broken into two, just like a divorce between two people, which hurts the vitality of a family.
For a long time, there has been no real leader in our big family, and the core decision-making level has always been the most responsible few people.
And when I checked the list last night, I found that the majority of the decision-makers decided to leave.
Therefore, I am worried, although there are many people left, if the dragons are leaderless and scattered, their lives will not be easy.
After breakfast, when I was discussing the issue of going south again, I brought up my thoughts.
"It's better for the people who decide to stay to vote for a leader." Indeed, since we have decided to leave, it is up to those who remain to choose the person they want to trust.
There were more than 80 people who decided to stay, and among the votes collected, more than 50 votes were for Chengzi, who was super popular and warm.
More than 20 votes were cast for Shanqi, and I secretly thought that these people who voted for him must be members of his team.
The one with the most votes wins, and Sumiko stood up and said with a smile, "Thank you for your recognition!" Sumiko: I'm willing to serve you. ”
He suddenly walked up to Shanqi and said, "Shanqi, I can't liliang enough, why don't we work together to take care of everyone?" ”
Shanqi thought for a moment and nodded, "Chengzi, I'm willing to help you and be your assistant." After saying that, he stared at Sumiko's face.
Chengzi smiled: "Okay, let's work together to make this valley a safe base, continue to farm the land, continue to secure the security, you little guys are all good, why don't you leave the security piece to you to be fully responsible?" ”
Shanqi looked back at his buddy and said, "No problem." ”
Those of us who were going south had no one involved, and I actually had a feeling that they were ready to take over the castle.
Especially Sumiko, he did not keep the people who wanted to leave, nor did he refuse the respect of others, but naturally accepted the identity of the leader.
It's like rehearsing so many times, and the tasks are immediately arranged.
Maybe he has the talent to be a leader.
Sumiko didn't notice the strangeness on the faces of our people, but continued to explain to the people who remained: "The old man and woman who are in charge of cooking can be reduced to eight people a day, and since the patrol of the valley is handed over to the mountain seven team, the others will be divided into who will be responsible for farming and who will be in charge of the breeding area..."
He really arranged it in an orderly manner, and the people who stayed behind were happy to cooperate.
I have the delusion that we people should have withdrawn a long time ago.
The Lin sisters walked up to Chengzi and whispered a few words, and Chengzi seemed to remember something, turned around and came to Dr. Ali, who was standing beside me, and asked gently, "Dr. Ali, how is your zombie vaccine being developed?" ”
Dr. Ali shook his head, "There is no progress, and it is difficult to say whether this vaccine can be developed." ”
Sumiko nodded, "Oh, okay, then I wish you a speedy development." ”
He turned around and went on to arrange the work in the valley, without even waiting for us to leave, so that we people were invisible.
In fact, we were all a little stunned, Sumiko has always given us the feeling of being gentle and polite, but we didn't expect that after taking over the power, the change was very sudden, which caught us a little off guard.
But I can't say what he did wrong, since he was elected as a leader, he should immediately show his leadership ability, right?
Dr. Ali whispered: "It turns out that it is not the Lin sisters who have been paying attention to my development of vaccines, but this Chengzi. ”
I also just understood that the Lin sisters have always been Chengzi's best friends, and it is not a trivial matter to inquire about the news for him.
Sumiko is the one who cares most about zombie vaccines!
But there's nothing wrong with that, who wouldn't want to be immune to the zombie virus sooner?
"Sister Duo, while the weather is good, let's leave early." Zhang Xiaomei suddenly burst out with a cold tone.
"That is, if we don't leave, I'm afraid we'll become superfluous people." Xia Xiaohan also looked unhappy.
I smiled wryly, it turned out that I was not the only one who thought it weird.
It is we who choose to leave them, not that they want to leave us, psychologically, it is they who have the feeling of abandonment in the first place.
Thinking so, I looked at those people and felt a deep apology in my heart.
Canaan told me a long time ago that we can't dedicate ourselves to everyone, because we have to plan for Shuai Shuai first, and as ordinary people, we really can't do it, in order to protect these people who refuse to move their nests, and give up giving Shuai Shuai a better future.
So, we can't blame them for blocking our existence so quickly, and we have to adapt to the environment where our partners are missing, right?
Same.
We watched Chengzi arrange various matters, and after a while he came to us again, "Sister Duo, you need more fuel for this long trip, I just thought about it, we will not enter Anji City again in the future, one is that the daily necessities are very complete, and the other is really risky to enter the city, so you drive away the big oil storage truck, the oil in the car is enough for you to go far." And that big truck, if you think you can use it on the road, just drive away. Just leave us ten off-roaders. Do you think that's good? ”
He said this generously, and we nodded our heads and said we had no problem.
Those of us who decided to go south discussed separately what we needed to bring, and the truck was really useful, luggage, clothes, bags of rice and noodles, and a lot of things that took up space.
Moreover, you can stay overnight in the van, and it is impossible to find an empty hotel or something every night along the way.
The oil in the oil storage truck is not used much, the tank is very full, I don't know where it can be supported, we will continue to look for oil storage tanker supplies on the way.
In fact, the most important thing is the route, the map is ready-made, everyone decides around the map, all the way south, take the highway.
I can go to Dalian and then study whether to turn to the sea.
Since they had decided to go, they went back to prepare and set off on the morning of the third day.
I found Shanqi and told him that if Uncle Zhang's family in the mountains needed help, he would try his best to help, and that it was a kind and good family.
Shan Qi agreed, and I told him to pay attention to Wu Feng's gang, Jin Sanpang has been eradicated, and it is unlikely that Wu Feng will come, but he must not let his guard down.
The large wave of corpses has not moved for a long time, I am afraid that they are going in the direction of Russia, transit, transit, as long as you don't enter the mountains.
What we think about is what we need to take with us and what we need to give up on this trip.
Hua Kai's father asked us to bring a few cows, a few pigs, and some chickens, not to kill them and take them away, because the weather was hot and could not be saved, he asked us to bring live animals.
The reason for this is that, firstly, there will definitely be times when we need to replenish our meat on the road, and secondly, no matter what kind of island or new base we go to, we need these live animals to continue to breed so that our next generation will not become vegan.
Everyone really agrees with this idea, and in Tang Xiaoyou's words, maybe we can drop one or two to help us get out when we encounter a group of corpses.
We also happen to have a medium-sized van that we can use to pull these animals.
Twenty cows, fifty pigs in the valley, we decided to take five cows, five pigs, twenty chickens.
Cows and pigs can only mix in the car, I hope they don't fight on the road, as for the chickens, Hua Kai Dad took a few people to nail a chicken coop with wooden strips overnight, and there is no problem with putting twenty chickens.
Bags of rice and flour, soybean oil, spices, etc., we all brought enough for a month, stacked in the innermost part of the Mercedes-Benz truck, which only took up a fifth of the space.
The big and small iron pots used for cooking, outdoor utensils, and small gas canisters were all brought, and the people in the castle didn't need these things.
There were enough weapons, clothing, and daily necessities, which together accounted for one-fifth of the large truck.
Three-fifths of the remaining space, with luggage, was our makeshift bedroom for the night.
Fifty people, driving ten modified off-road vehicles, one oil storage truck, one Mercedes-Benz truck, one van, a total of thirteen vehicles.
Adam drove his own marauders, Luohan drove the marauders of smoke rings, others drove the off-road vehicles that were modified when they were in the community, and Ye Gang drove the Audi Q7 that was stolen back from Wu Feng.
Tang Si drove a Mercedes-Benz truck, Shannian drove an oil storage truck, and the ghost opened a cargo.
With such a well-equipped team, I don't know if we can defeat the zombie army along the way and reach Hainan smoothly and safely.
Everything was ready to stop, and we decided to leave tomorrow morning.
The night before I left, I found my close friend Qiqi, and the was also in her room, and we didn't have to shy away from him when we chatted, and I gave an explanation to them.
"Seventy-seven,, you two take care!" I held Qiqi's hand, my heart was very sad, this farewell, I don't know what year and month can zaijian.
Qiqi smiled tearfully and pinched my fingers, "I'm sure we'll still zaijian!" ”
The groaned for a while and said, "Duoduo, if you find the garrison island, you should be able to get guns, and when the time comes, you can consider coming back with a team and bringing the people here over, everyone Zuihou is still good to converge." ”
I looked at the gratefully, in fact, he agreed to go south, he was born in special forces, he was courageous, and he was not afraid of the horror outside at all, but he would rather stay in the valley for Qiqi.
"Qiqi,, I promise you, when we find a more suitable island to settle down, we will definitely find a chance to come back to pick you up, and Qiqi will stop being a coward when the time comes." I wish Qiqi would suddenly change her mind, but she didn't surprise me.
The suddenly said, "Actually, it's a good thing for me to stay in the valley now, and I can do something for the old people and children in the valley." Actually, I wasn't optimistic about the man named Chengzi, when I voted, I voted for the young man in Shanqi, I didn't expect so many people to support Chengzi, I joined late, Duoduo, can you tell me weishenme? ”
"Because most of the people left behind are people from the community, Chengzi is also from our community, when he was in the community, he was responsible for managing materials for everyone, distributing supplies, and everyone knew him, and he had a good personality, no one would not like such a gentle and kind man." I explained to the.
The shook his head, "This guy is quite popular, but I don't feel like him, in my opinion, he is a good man, but he doesn't have leadership skills. Also, I always felt that he was not as kind as he appeared. ”
"Ghost, do you want to be the leader of the castle?" Qiqi looked at the worriedly, obviously she didn't want the to be the person in charge of the pioneer, this was understandable, she didn't want to lose the protector again.
The stroked Qiqi's hair and smiled extremely gently, "No, I've never liked to be a leader, but I can tell who is suitable to be a leader." ”
I think about the style of Sumiko's rapid deployment after being elected to the throne.,It's really a little ambitious.,Of course,It's a man who wants to make a career.,No matter what kind of world it is.,There's nothing wrong with that.。
", protect Qiqi, protect these old people and children, if you have something, you can discuss it with Shanqi, he is a trustworthy boy, very righteous and sacrificial, you should have heard that he once took his teammates to get out of the corpse for everyone." I told him.
The nodded, "That's why I voted for him, this kid has a leadership style, and his team of twenty or so people is very united, which shows that he has a leadership charisma." The people in the community don't know him well, it's a pity. ”
", whether you recognize Sumiko or not, I still hope that you can do your best to help him protect everyone here, just like Shanqi. Whether he's ambitious or enthusiastic, don't embarrass him as long as it's good for everyone, okay? "I was still afraid that they would get along.
The smiled: "I have a number, don't worry, Duoduo, but if his heart changes, I won't sit idly by." ”
"I also thought that one day when he is not suitable to cooperate with the leader, I hope you can support Shanqi."
"Don't worry! That's what I intended. The and I smiled in understanding.
Leaving Qiqi and's room, I went to Shanqi's dormitory, which was full of his buddies.
"Sister Duo is here!" The boys cheered, and I got along very well with them.
"I'll leave soon, Sister Duo will come and see you again." I said with a smile.
After talking to them, I said, "There are still a lot of things that haven't been packed, it's too late, Sister Duo will go back, and I will get up early tomorrow to send Sister Duo." ”
Xiang Shanqi gave me a look, and he walked out of the room with me by sending me off.
"Shanqi, are you not satisfied with today's election?" Seeing that there was no one around, I suddenly asked.
Shan Qi was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Sister Duo, the brothers blindly promoted me, I really didn't want to be the boss." ”
I smiled and pressed Shanqi's sturdy shoulder: "Shanqi, listen to me, it's not that you don't have the ability to lead this valley, but Chengzi has known everyone first, and he is friendly, so it is reasonable to be recommended by them." ”
Shanqi was a little anxious, "Sister, we've known each other for a long time, and I really haven't had this ambition." ”
I shook my head: "Shanqi, this is not a matter of ambition, taking over the valley, only ambition, no love and sense of responsibility is not enough, this is the last days of zombies, not the Taiping era is enough to be in power." ”
Shanqi was silent, he already understood that I had something to tell him.
"In fact, you and Chengzi, it's hard to say who is more suitable to be the protector of the valley, but since everyone is willing to rely on Chengzi and let him take responsibility, you and your friends should do your best to help him and don't embarrass him. Can you promise me this? After saying that, I stared at Shanqi's face and waited for him to answer.
Shan Qi hesitated for a moment and nodded vigorously: "Sister Duo, to be honest, before you came, my brothers were really complaining there, they were not convinced by Chengzi, especially Chengzi arranged for us to be in charge of security, they said that Chengzi pushed the adventure to us, but he threw his hand to be the stable master in the castle, and he was very dissatisfied." ”
I nodded, "Expected, reasonable, so what do you think?" ”
Shan Qi scratched his head, "I'm pressing things, I said that if you want me to be my eldest brother, just be honest and don't make trouble, the strength of the valley will be weakened, and then the inner bar, can you still pass together, hehe." ”
I looked at him approvingly, "You're so mature, that's right!" Since most of them elected Sumiko, and let him play well, your brothers will obey you, and you can do this work yourself. ”
After a pause, I lowered my voice and said, "Shanqi, you remember, if Sumiko one day goes against his heart and only values power over affection, or is dictatorial and puts personal interests above the interests of the group, he is no longer suitable to be the leader of the valley, and then you go to the, and he will help you take over the valley." ”
Shan Qi looked at me with a surprised face: "Sister Duo, do you know anything?" ”
I shook my head, "I don't know anything, I just leave a way out for the people in the castle, after all, they are all like my relatives, I can't take them all away this time, it's my incompetence, but I don't want them to fall into any unpleasant situation." ”
After saying this, my face suddenly became serious, "Shanqi, if it was you who was elected today, I would also say the same thing to Chengzi, do you understand?" ”
Shanqi blinked and said, "Understood, what Sister Duo meant, it's not that Chengzi has a problem, but just in case." ”
"Well, that's what it is." I patted his arm, heavily.
"Sister Duo, will you come back to us?" When I wanted to leave, Sanchi Zuihou asked.
"As long as there is a more haode base, do you think Sister Duo will give up her family here? Anyway, stick to zuihou! ”
"I swear! Bear down! ”
The end of the third season
