Chapter 268: Jiangbei City
At nine o'clock in the morning, the scorching sun hung high, scorching the earth.
Fu Xiaodong was lying in front of his house, naked, wearing only a pair of shorts, and was eating. To his left is a jar filled with food resembling glutinous rice. He pulled out a piece with his hand, kneaded it into a dough shape in the palm of his hand, stuffed it into his mouth, and ate it.
After eating, he grabbed a handful of purple grass from his right hand and chewed it in large gulps.
An indescribable strange smell fills the mouth. The taste of this purple grass is worse than stool. But there is no way, if you want to live, you must grit your teeth and swallow it.
Because, only this plant, which is called coriander grass by the locals, can help digest the Guanyin soil and not be strangled to death.
Seeing his slightly bulging belly, a helpless wry smile crossed his face. Compared with the homeless people around him who are like himself, all of them are as big as pregnant women, and his situation is much better.
Kannon soil, a kind of soil that is a local specialty. It is said that in the pre-apocalyptic famine years, people used this to satisfy their hunger. Fortunately, thanks to this thing, 300,000 displaced people outside Jiangbei City can survive hard.
However, every day, many people, because they don't know moderation, desperately devour Guanyin soil, resulting in bloating and unable to excrete, and they are strangled to death.
"How long will it be!"
Fu Xiaodong sighed. Squinting his eyes, he recalls all the good lives before the end of the world. If it weren't for this disaster, he, the small boss of an advertising company, would have no worries about food and clothing, and a girlfriend who had been in love for eight years, and now he might be married and even have children.
And now, girlfriends, family, and friends are not zombies. It's to be brutalized by these disgusting things. He was the only one left, struggling to survive in this cruel world.
Take a look back. The tall and majestic city wall in the distance behind him. It has been said that inside the city walls is a completely different world. There are endless delicacies, and the people in it live a worry-free life.
It's a pity that he is a homeless, one of the 300,000 homeless people outside the city. A group of poor people who were abandoned by Jiangbei City.
"If you could let me live in the city for a month...... Even if it is ten days, even if I die, I am willing! ”
Fu Xiaodong sighed again. He knew in his heart that he was not the only one who had such thoughts, but it was impossible for anyone to realize their wishes.
Thirty meters away from the city gate, there is no mercy for killing!
This is the city rules of Jiangbei City. No one dared to disobey.
The roaring engine sounded. Pickup trucks drove out from the main gate of Jiangbei City. Fu Xiaodong's ears were sensitive, and he immediately stood up and looked at it after hearing it. A convoy pulled out of the city gates. There was no long journey, but neatly arranged outside the city.
An armed man jumped out of his car and stood on either side of the city gate. Among them, there is also a big man in a red cloak, who fights there, looking forward to life, and his heroic posture is extraordinary.
"He's ...... Thor, Ouyang Hao! ”
Although he is a homeless person, Fu Xiaodong knows a lot of things. I have heard of the top ten evolution masters in Jiangbei City. The big man in the red cloak, if he was not mistaken. It should be one of the top ten masters in Jiangbei City, the fourth-ranked thunder god Ouyang Hao. He is also the core figure of the Ouyang family, the five major forces in the city.
"Evolver!"
A flash of envy flashed on Fu Xiaodong's face, as well as an instinctive awe of the strong. If he was also an evolutionary, he would have already entered the city. Enjoy a good life that ordinary people can't reach.
Beside Ouyang Hao, he also saw a young man in his twenties. This guy looks good-looking, but he always has a mean smile on his face. It's annoying, and I want to go up and punch him a few times.
Fu Xiaodong also has this idea. But. Limited to thinking about it. can stand side by side with Thor, talking and laughing. How could it be ordinary people!
"Brother Yang, this time, thanks to your urging, Brother Li will send out the caravan so quickly...... Your favor, as a brother, must be remembered! ”
Ouyang Hao smiled and thanked the young man standing beside him. He is also a big man who stomped in Jiangbei City, and the ground shook three times. But to the young man next to him, his words were extremely warm and polite.
Yang Jian grinned: "Where is it, this is a matter for brothers, my brother is too angry." ”
Ouyang Hao took out a pack of Chinese cigarettes, gave one to Yang Jian, lit it, lowered his voice and said, "Brother Li wants jade, our Ouyang family has collected a lot, this list is ...... Do you need to show your brother? ”
"Of course." Yang Jian said briskly: "Bring the list, and the caravan will come over later, and hand over the supplies immediately." ”
Ouyang Hao's face was full of joy after hearing this, and he took out a list from his pocket and handed it to Yang Jian. The latter took a look and exclaimed, "Three thousand nine hundred and seventy-two catties!" Almost two tons! I'll it! ”
Ouyang Hao said with a smile: "Just Jiangbei City, of course there are not so many jades. Since signing the contract with Brother Li, the first thing I did when I returned to Jiangbei City was to ask my family to send people to collect jade from the counties that I had conquered before...... Brother Yang, you also know, this thing is not interested in other families except for the needs of your harvest firm, hehe, this time it happened to be cheaper for my Ouyang family! ”
Yang Jian put away the list, pointed at Ouyang Hao, and said with a cheap smile: "Brother, you are too chicken thief!" ”
"This is all taken care of by Brother Li, giving our Ouyang family a windfall!"
Ouyang Hao took out a small cloth bag and stuffed it to Yang Jian. Yang Jian glanced at it, and there were ten crystal nuclei inside. Specifically, it should be two aquamarine and eight green crystals.
"How embarrassing is that!"
Yang Jian pretended to resign. In fact, his heart was itching, and he couldn't wait to put the cloth bag containing the crystal nucleus into his arms.
"This is my brother's private collection, if you don't accept it, you will look down on me!"
Ouyang Hao forcibly stuffed the cloth bag containing the crystal nucleus to Yang Jian. Yang Jian accepted it half-pushed, and his heart blossomed.
Not long after, on the distant horizon, the sound of a roaring engine could be heard. A convoy came galloping along a rugged mountain road.
Jiangbei City is located in a small town called Xishanyi. Dozens of kilometers nearby are all mountainous areas, but they are all bare barren mountains, and there is basically no green. Before the end of the world, it was originally a sand mining area, rich in quartz sandstone, which was broken into yellow sand and transported to various places to be used as building materials.
In the post-apocalyptic times. A large number of survivors from the provincial capital came and saw that the terrain was complicated. The road is rough. Semi-mined mines create complex landscapes that act as natural barriers. So. Settlements were established here.
Entering the mining area from the outer provincial road, there is only one rugged mountain road. At this moment, the galloping convoy rolled up more than ten meters of dust and drove mightily.
"The caravan is coming!"
Ouyang Hao was overjoyed when he saw this.
Yang Jian said with a smile on the side: "This is the first batch of materials, with a total amount of 300 tons, mostly grain. Of course, it also comes with a lot of meat and fishery products, vegetables and fruits. "According to his meaning, as long as the caravan is stationed. Later, there will be a steady stream of various daily necessities delivered.
"My Jiangbei City is located in a wasteland, it is not easy to reclaim, and now the most scarce thing is all kinds of food and materials!"
Ouyang Hao's face was full of excitement, and he said to Yang Jian: "The entry of your firm is of great significance to my Jiangbei City. My Ouyang family will fully cooperate to ensure the smooth entry of your commercial bank. ”
"That's good."
Yang Jian smiled and nodded.
Soon, the convoy came to the city gates. Leading the way were a dozen pickup trucks, as well as seven or eight buses. The back was full of heavy trucks, loaded with all kinds of food supplies.
"Brother Yang! Brother Ouyang! ”
Three evolutionary squadrons in charge of escorts. Led by Hua Wenhao. As soon as you get off the bus, come over and say hello.
"It's been a hard journey!"
Ouyang Hao greeted warmly and asked Hua Wenhao to take his subordinates into the city to rest.
"There's no hurry."
Hua Wenhao smiled. Turning around and pointing to the side of the convoy, he said, "This time, our firm is stationed in Jiangbei City, mainly the girls from the public relations department. They still have some matters to discuss with their brother. ”
All eyes looked. A bus on the other side of the convoy. Down came a group of young women, all dressed in slip skirts. Dressed up and walked over.
"Brother Jian is also there!"
"It's him! It's him! ”
After the group of young women approached. Seeing Yang Jian, as if he had seen an old friend, he cheered and trotted over.
Yang Jian glanced away and opened his mouth wide. These MMs are all sisters from Hongguan Street, their old acquaintances. He subconsciously rubbed oil on the soles of his feet and wanted to slip away, but before he could walk a few steps, he was already surrounded by these sisters. All of them are very enthusiastic and chattering non-stop.
Yang Jian's head is about to explode!
"Brother Yang's woman is good!" When Ouyang Hao saw this scene, he laughed and joked.
"Well, it's good, it's all his old friends." Hua Wenhao nodded. With a playful smile on his face.
"You're here to work, not to play in the mountains!"
Just when Yang Jian was surrounded by a group of sisters and was anxious. Two more young beauties came over, wearing light makeup and looking good. A short-haired beauty on the right looked displeased and snorted. Then, the sisters around Yang Jian dispersed, standing behind these two beauties one by one.
"Xiao Guo! Juanzi! You're here too! ”
Yang Jian was relieved and greeted the two beauties. The rest of these sisters can't be named, but he knows these two. The ex-girlfriend of Xiao Fang and Xiao Fang's brothers has been working in the market, and later the business bank set up a public relations department and took the initiative to ask for a transfer.
Guo Zhiyan, a short-haired beauty, nodded at Yang Jian, which was regarded as a greeting. After that, she and Wang Juan came to Ouyang Hao and handed over the business card very politely: "Brother Ouyang, we are the key account manager of the public relations department of Fengshou Commercial Bank, and we are responsible for all matters related to the entry into Jiangbei City. ”
Ouyang Hao took the business card, glanced at it, and nodded with a smile: "On behalf of Jiangbei City, I welcome the caravan led by Miss Guo and Miss Wang." ”
Guo Zhiyan smiled implicitly. After the training of special etiquette teachers, now, the smell of wind and dust on their bodies has long disappeared, and their speech and demeanor are polite and courteous, and they look no different from those senior white-collar workers before the end of the world.
Wang Juan looked back at the homeless dwellings that were several times larger than the refugee camp in Xibu City back then, and said with a smile: "Before I came, the boss told me that our harvest firm entered Jiangbei City with 12 points of sincerity, and the purpose of trade was not entirely to make money. The purpose of our harvest firm is to bring well-being to all survivors in Jiangbei City! ”
Guo Zhiyan said: "Therefore, our boss has instructed that we will give each of these refugees outside Jiangbei a meeting gift." ”
As they spoke, in the distance, a heavy truck pulled out a tarpaulin, and it was piled with yellow corn cobs, more than a dozen tons.
"Two corn cobs per person, a little care, not respect."
Wang Juan and Guo Zhiyan said with a smile.
Ouyang Hao was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then his face was full of admiration, and he gave a thumbs up and said, "Brother Li is Brother Li, and his shot is really extraordinary." On behalf of these displaced people, I, Ouyang Hao, thanked Brother Li for his righteous deeds, and asked the two young ladies to convey it on my behalf. ”
"Well said."
Guo Zhiyan smiled, "I also ask Brother Ouyang to send someone to maintain order on the spot, and we will start distributing it immediately." ”
"No problem!"
Ouyang Hao gave an order. The nearly 500 armed men brought with him immediately went into action. At the same time, the staff of the Harvest Trading House began to unload the goods. Bags of corn cobs were brought down from the truck and stacked along the road.
Later, under the propaganda of the Ouyang family, countless displaced people poured out of the camp. One by one, they lined up, excited and excited, and began to receive relief materials from the comptoirs from afar.
"Before the caravan settled, the boss spent more than a dozen tons of corn to win people's hearts...... This trick is clever! ”
Yang Jian looked at Hua Wenhao.
Hua Wenhao smiled slightly: "Who made our Xibu City have a small population, and the boss is doing this...... Brother Yang, you should know best! ”
The two looked at each other and smiled. (To be continued......)
PS: Thank you Shangguan, willful ruined your life, jeans love miniskirt reward, thank Xiang Haitian, see the monthly pass as planned for support...... The suggestion about the wayward brother is very good (read the text very carefully), about the base camp of Xibu, across the river to the south is the capital of Su Province, a metropolis with a population of several million, and the current strength of Li Guangtou is insufficient to capture it. Two counties and one city along the northern provincial highway were captured, and it can be said that the zombies near the base camp were basically exterminated. Next, continue to develop the commercial line to the north, and at the same time, the zombie eradication operation will also be carried out, which will be mentioned later in the article...... First, continue to ask for support
