Chapter 224: The Rise of the Evolutionary
Rice, a food that can last for a long time as long as it is preserved a little, is one of the most precious and expensive foods in today's last days.
In addition to those fresh vegetables and fruits, but also meat, rice has been equated with gold, and even more expensive than gold!
And how many fresh vegetables and fruits are there these days? Not to mention meat, these things are basically extinct, even those dignitaries today, only a few of them were brought out by cryopreservation, and most of them have been consumed.
Those who can trade rice here are all cattle! Either the dignitaries of the base, or the powerful survivors. No matter which one it was, when Li Ye said that he would trade rice, it was obvious that the eyes that were originally concerned about the three beauties around him were more oriented towards him.
No one thinks that women will be strong, this is the default and recognized by everyone. Whether it is the person in power or the survivor, the real strength is basically the man, and a few women are a minority after all.
However, there is no one here to entangle, it should be that the base is well managed, and of course, the guns in the hands of the soldiers around are not fake.
After returning to the community with the clothes seller, and then asking him to wait downstairs, Li Ye pretended to go upstairs, and then exchanged for a bag of three catties of rice.
After changing back into a few clothes that didn't have much price in the last days, Li Ye suddenly thought of a very good idea.
Except for a few high-level military and political axe leaders, there is only one way to gain power, attention, and even enter the high-level of the base, to bring enough needed things to the base!
After talking to everyone a little bit, everyone scattered around the base to understand the situation. Sure enough, when I came back, I said that there were indeed some people in the base who originally had a very low status, but they got a lot of attention after venturing outside to find valuables, and then came back to make transactions with the high-level management of the base!
Although there are many troops in the base, most of them have to be scattered around to guard and protect. In addition, there needs to be someone inside the town, and everyone's psychological defense line is very low in the last days, if there is no army to hold the town, the town will definitely be chaotic.
Therefore, the number of people who can be used by the army is very small, and the hunt at the beginning seems to be from the army itself, but it seems that the effect is slight, and then the survivors are used to fight for it themselves.
At the same time, it also allowed a group of survivors to get ahead, and those who were clever enough to find food to keep for themselves, and some valuables, such as cigarettes, alcohol, and even other most extravagant goods of the last days, were given to those in power as a price code, and thus gained status.
"Now there are several large hunting teams in the base, it seems that there are hundreds of people, although they can't be compared with those dignitaries, but they also walk sideways in the base, and many times the high-level of the base is quite tolerant of them."
"Yes, yes, I also inquired, those large teams can even negotiate with the top management of the base, and the status is quite high. Now many survivors, those who have the courage to join in. ”
"Of course, it is understood that there are only a few really powerful large groups, and although there are many other groups, many of them are just barely making ends meet, and their lives are in danger anytime and anywhere."
Combined with the news from everyone, Li Ye probably had an idea in his heart. Excluding those small groups who are desperate for a living, those large groups obviously have a hint of warlordism, of course, they are not even a prototype now, but it can be seen that as time goes by, the status of this group in the base will become more and more obvious.
When supplies begin to be scarce, when time passes too long, when there are more and more members of their group, the army alone may at most achieve a balance, but the rise of those people is definitely a certainty!
"Actually, I got a message today." Suddenly, Lin Weiguang interrupted everyone, and then said an important news with some excitement and heaviness.
"There are actually a lot of evolutionaries in the base!"
This news is definitely the most important and shocking thing today!
Evolutionary, this is the proudest and biggest hole card of Li Ye and others. The existence of evolutionaries can be said to be very important in this apocalyptic world in the future!
According to Li Ye's calculations, with the passage of time, there will definitely be more and more evolutionists, this is the law of nature, in order to deal with those evolved zombies and creatures, human beings will definitely evolve.
But everything is rare and expensive, one or two evolutionaries are treasures, but what about a group of evolutionaries?
Then it depends on the strength!
"How many?" Li Ye is very concerned about this topic.
"It's not very clear about the specifics, but from some conversations with the survivors in the town, it seems that there are indeed some people who have changed, they are infinitely powerful, and some have special abilities, and those people are quite famous in the base."
If you have any questions, of course, you have to find someone to understand, but who to turn to? Li Ye, who is not familiar with life, first thought of Chen Guorong and Sun Li, who had some relationships.
But this time he went out and didn't find Chen Guorong, but saw Sun Li.
"Brother Sun, are you not on duty today?" Li Ye greeted with a smile.
Li Ye felt that his decision was very correct at the beginning, because of the loss of a Humvee and a pistol, at least he had a trace of contact with the army in the base, although it was only a second lieutenant and a lieutenant colonel, but the key problem was that the major general behind them!
"Well, it's my team's turn to rest today, and Brother Li is coming to my brother?"
Sun Li's impression of Li Ye is also very good, and he has taken the benefits!
"No, just hang out, and we just came, and we didn't know anyone, so we thought of coming over to see if the two big brothers were there."
There is no entertainment in the town, after all, who cares about those in the last days, Li Ye and Sun Li found a quiet place, and then began to chat.
After Li Ye talked a few words, it seemed that he had casually talked about some issues, and it seemed that he had really talked about it suddenly.
"Oh? You said those evolutionaries, yes, as early as a month ago, some people inexplicably changed, and our base was still in chaos at the beginning, and you know some things......"
Looking at Sun Li's expression, Li Ye didn't understand what he meant at first, but then he understood. Some people have superhuman strength, and in the last days, they are unruly and even ambitious, the so-called chaos is probably not a good thing, and Li Ye doesn't ask much.
"But don't look at the people in the base, some of them are evolutionary, very arrogant, but our military is not without a way to stop them." Speaking of this, Sun Li's tone was a little hesitant, he seemed to be hesitating about something.
