Chapter 274: Poster!!
When he came to S City again, the first thing that appeared in Ling Tao's sight was a tall and solid city wall, a city wall made of reinforced concrete, which was more than thirty meters high, and there were heavily armed people patrolling the city wall, one every few meters.
"I remember that when I first came here, the city wall was still under construction, but I didn't expect it to be built now, and, looking at the appearance of the city wall, I'm afraid that ordinary grenades can only collapse a piece of cement from above", looking at the city wall on the horizon in the distance, Ling Tao said secretly in his heart.
The result of the group plus mechanization is terrifying, when Ling Tao saw in the air, the ground was pulled by large trucks with cement and steel bars, excavators roared, and countless manpower and material resources were invested to have the city wall of S City today.
The pattern of S City is no different from Xihe City, outside the city wall is an open field, a kilometer or two away, in this range, even plants are rare, if something like a mutant beast appears, it is the most conspicuous, and it will be killed by the armed personnel on the city wall as soon as possible.
Under the city wall, there is a five-meter-high doorway, and the people come and go much more lively than Xihe City.
"Brother Ling Tao, do you have a place to live after you arrive in S City? If you don't have a place to live, I'll build yì you go to our office in Xihe City here", when there was still a kilometer or two away from the gate of S City, Lao Qi stuck his head out of the car window and said to Ling Tao.
Ling Tao was stunned for a moment, and his heart said that Xihe City actually has an office here? But then he shook his head and said, "It's still not necessary, I'll figure it out myself."
It's not that he's afraid of owing Tian Shan more favors, it's mainly that he has to find a way to kill Song Hui's guy next, Ling Tao doesn't want to drag Tian Shan down, after all, if he succeeds, the Song family who controls S City will definitely be furious, and when the time comes, if he finds Tian Shan, the power of Xihe City will not be able to compete with the Song family.
As if he had expected this, Lao Qi nodded and said, "Since that's the case." Then I'll give you a little bit of construction, now S City is overcrowded, and it is not like Xihe City that will provide accommodation, so you can only find your own way when you get here. If you don't have relatives to go to it, you can only go to the hotels and guesthouses here to stay, of course, the price will be very high, and. Some regular hotels and guesthouses will not use bullets as currency like we do in Xihe City, they use gold and silver as hard currency, and those privately opened accommodation places do not have such an exquisiteness, and bullets can also be used as money, but it will be very messy."
"Gold and silver? Are there so many of these precious metals in circulation"? Ling Tao asked with some confusion.
Lao Qi smiled and said: "What is this, think about it, when it was still peaceful, as long as it was a person with a little money, who didn't get a gold ring or gold earrings or something, even the gangsters knew to make a gold necklace with it." It is conceivable that there are still a lot of things like gold and silver on the market, and now the general environment is like this, such things have become hard currency, gathered in the hands of some people, but it has formed today's consumption pattern, of course, bartering with bullets is also one of the mainstream today, but a little more formal places are used in gold and silver."
Lao Qi explained like this, and Ling Tao felt that it was too. There used to be some gangsters who knew how to make a gold necklace or something, so it can be seen that there are still a lot of these precious metals, but at that time, everyone looked at money and ignored these things, and now money is useless. Gold and silver suddenly replaced paper money.
"What about the specific prices"? Ling Tao asked.
"I don't know about this, now the general environment has not settled down, and the pricing of almost every merchant is different, so I have to experience it myself", Lao Qi shook his head and said.
Ling Tao was helpless, it seemed that he could only get used to it slowly after he arrived here.
"Okay, Brother Lingtao. In front of us is the gate of S City, but our convoy does not enter from here, are you going to join us, or are you going to be separated here"? Seeing that the gate of S City was in sight, Lao Qi looked at Ling Tao and asked.
Ling Tao glanced forward, and then said, "Let's stop here, but thank you for the reminder."
"It's okay, this is what the boss asked me to give you before leaving, you have to put it away, that's it, let's say goodbye", finally Lao Qi handed Ling Tao a small bag and said.
When Ling Tao took it in amazement, Lao Qi had already waved his hand and left, took the convoy around a corner, and drove in the other direction along the road at the root of the city wall of S City, and the convoy also followed.
Ling Tao weighed the small bag in his hand, that is, the slightly larger wallet before, such a small bag, I am afraid that it will not be less than ten catties.
When I opened it, there were neatly stacked gold and silver bars with the thickness of my little finger, and there was a note inside, which was written by Tian Shan, probably saying that this was Ling Tao's first month's salary, and the gold and silver bars added up to ten catties of gold!
"I've only been making offerings for a few days, and I'm actually getting paid? And it's also a full-term distribution, this Tian boss is really good at being a man", holding a bag of precious metals, Ling Tao said secretly in his heart.
Although Ling Tao had never understood the value of these precious metals, he also knew that this thing was a huge amount of money, and if it was known, he was afraid that others would kill people and sell goods.
The things were all taken, and the people were gone, Ling Tao couldn't think about it, so he had to put it away, and then, the locomotive drove towards the gate of S City.
Obviously, this is the same as Xihe City, there is a special place for hunters to enter, Ling Tao guessed that the scale of S City is so large, there must not be only one place for hunters to enter and exit, and obviously, this door in front of him is not a place for hunters to enter and exit.
The reason for this is because he saw that the place was also accessible by vehicles, and of course, most of them were on foot.
When he got close to here, Ling Tao originally thought that his dress was unique enough, but the people who came in and out of here were dressed more uniquely, some were wearing leather armor with cold weapons like him, and they looked more sophisticated, some were simply wearing iron armor, and they made a noise when they walked, some were carrying guns and grenades around their waists, and some were carrying bows, arrows, snipers and other things, and even Ling Tao saw people carrying axes and hammers on their backs.
"What kind of people are these, they all look like they're all skilled, I'm afraid the worst one has to fight with Wan Shan, who was killed by himself, and there are a few who are not weaker than Dajiang, where did these people come from?" Seeing the people coming in and out of the gate, Ling Tao was surprised to think that there was actually a feeling of coming from the countryside to the big city.
In comparison, he is not very conspicuous when he wears leather armor, cold weapons and rides a motorcycle.
Thinking about it again, Ling Tao was relieved, since this place is known to be overcrowded, with a population of at least two million, then quantitative changes cause qualitative changes, and it is not surprising that these people who are much stronger than ordinary people appear, and even Ling Tao is still speculating, what kind of situation should those big cities with tens of millions of people look like?
The people who come in and out of here are not hunters, and they don't know what these people are doing outside.
Soon Ling Tao came to the city, was stopped by the armed men guarding the city, and asked to rest for half an hour not far away, and then if he entered the city, he had to pay ten bullets or one or two silver to enter the city, the reason was very simple, in order to control the population of zhìS City, no more here could not be fitted.
Ten bullets were handed over to the other party, and Ling Tao followed the others to a fixed area on the side to rest, in fact, he was afraid that someone would bring the living dead virus into the city, everyone understood this.
Everyone in the lounge area will be given a number, which is the kind when queuing at the bank, but the time is marked on it, so as not to get confused by the crowd.
In the rest area, there were still a lot of people, and when Ling Tao came, there were at least thirty or forty people here, but except for people who knew each other, they hardly talked much, and they seemed a little indifferent.
didn't know these people, Ling Tao didn't go to climb the relationship at will, but watched left and right, but let him see a more interesting thing on the city wall not far away.
It was a big poster, that's right, it was a poster, and to Ling Tao's surprise, it was actually a concert poster, which almost didn't make Ling Tao burst his eyes, when was this, someone actually held a concert? And the date looks like it's tonight!
"Is it her? Today's concert at the S City Gymnasium, I read it right", Ling Tao said suspiciously when he saw the girl holding the microphone on the poster.
The poster is the protagonist of the concert, it is actually Leng Yingying, who was taken away after Ling Tao met once, and she is still floating out of the dust on the poster, like a fairy, and a white dress seems to fly away.
"It's interesting, in an environment where even survival is a problem, I still play this kind of mental entertainment, I'm just a drunken mess, but then again, no matter what time it is, there are always some rich and powerful people, they have to have some entertainment if they are fine, right? Then there will be a ...... of similar entertainment", Ling Tao said dumbly in his heart.
Suddenly, I felt that I didn't seem to know enough about this world, although ordinary people are worried about life every day, but there are always some unexpected things happening.
"Concert, what's going on, should I go to see it too?" Ling Tao stared at the poster and muttered to himself....... (To be continued.) )
