Chapter 47: The Black Market

On the first day of entering the human base, Lin Jiang and Ma Xiaofeng went to the street office to check in, which was actually not considered a formality. Just simply registering their residences, and in addition, the eight people of Lin Jiang were logged in in the information where they were located, which could only be regarded as facilitating future management.

After leaving the street office, Ma Xiaofeng scolded and said: "Damn, look at these street offices, they live in brick houses, and we live in tents." I can't stand it, he just treats us like refugees, and he looks like he's so bad. It's just a miscellaneous person.,Think of yourself as so amazing.,Have the ability to go out and play with zombies.。 ”

Lin Jiang sighed lightly, patted Ma Xiaofeng's shoulder, and walked towards a remote corner. After seeing that there were not many people around, he muttered: "It's better to pay attention to the words here, now it's people under the roof, and they have to bow their heads." If there are complaints, I don't think it can be just you and me, and there are other survivors. What I have to do now is to calm down, just now the street office gave me a leaflet, which said that two steamed buns and a bowl of water will be distributed to everyone every day. In addition, if you want extra food, you need to go to work, and he wants to use our labor. “

"I just can't get angry about that, forget it, I don't want to think about it. What are you going to do now, do you just go back to camp, or do you just wander around? Ma Xiaofeng said lightly angrily, but after looking at the survivors around who had already paid some attention to them, he didn't continue.

Lin Jiang didn't have much to do, and pulled Ma Xiaofeng to continue walking forward, since he came to the human base, he wanted to see how this base was. Walking around this human base, he found that many places were uneven, and although they had been artificially treated, there were still some places that had not been completely treated. According to the map, the human base is a square structure with a side length of thirty kilometers, divided into three levels, each about ten kilometers. Although it is a square structure, it is only an appearance, after all, it is impossible to build a square shape, and it is affected by geology.

There are many jobs here, and due to the limited manpower, the military stationed here deliberately set the wages of the jobs as food in order to make them voluntary. Although each person will be distributed two steamed buns and water every day, it is impossible to solve the problem of food and clothing, and they can only starve to death. And in order to get more food, the survivors had to join the army's so-called jobs in exchange for the meager food.

Depending on the type of work, the food distributed varies from one job to another, but the simplest is cleaning. However, this kind of work can only be exchanged for two steamed buns a day, but it is not a bad job. It's just that there is a fixed number of people for each job, and not everyone can go if they want to, and the most scarce thing today is the farmers. There is a lot of land in the outer layer, but not too many people are willing to go down to the fields to cultivate it, which is why there is such a shortage of food and supplies.

Those who have already lived here have learned that in fact, the human base has countless unspoken rules, and the reason why the human base is built into a hollow shape. Not only to be able to provide multiple layers of protection, but more importantly, those superiors are greedy for life and afraid of death, so let them and civilians block out first. The more you go inside, the more noble the status, in the inner layer are basically bureaucrats and troops, and in the middle level are some rich people. They don't check your origin too much, as long as you come, you can stay here.

After taking a look at the outer layer of the human base, Lin Jiang found that his camp was in the north, and after returning to the camp, Lin Jiang gathered everyone to the tent. After confirming that there was no one around, he said slowly: "I already know the general situation of the human base, but it is only the skin, there are many dragons and snakes here, if you want to survive, you must be careful." ”

Cheng Xi sat aside and didn't feel surprised, nodded and muttered: "There is no doubt about this, even if it is not here, it will be like this in today's society." It's just that the current atmosphere is more likely to occur like this, and I'm afraid you didn't just want to talk about this when you gathered us. ”

Smiling slightly, then Lin Jiang said cautiously: "Naturally it won't be so simple, there will definitely be a black market in this kind of place, in fact, whether it is here or in the previous society." There is always a black market in the black market, and now we are not in a good situation, so I decided to take the Type 95 automatic rifle to the black market in exchange for food. ”

"What...... You actually want to exchange the Type 95 automatic rifle for food, are you crazy, what do we have to protect ourselves without guns. Ma Xiaofeng looked at Lin Jiang in a daze, as if he didn't expect him to say such a thing, after all, he went out with Lin Jiang today. He also saw the tragic situation of this human base, although it was all protected by the army, but the security here was not very good. Some people will even snatch other people's food, but the street office just turns a blind eye to such things, as long as they don't cause death, he will only educate these people in person.

Not only him, but even the three girls and Wu Silan were a little puzzled, although they were desperately short of supplies. All the things in the villa were confiscated, but they also came back with some supplies, although these things can only last a few days, but guns are more important than supplies.

Tang Peiyao and Cheng Xi both smiled slightly, did not say anything, and glanced at the guys who were a little puzzled. Cheng Xi said lightly: "Listen to Lin Jiang's words, don't question it so quickly, don't you believe him?" Since he did this, he would have a reason to do so, and he would not sell the Type 95 automatic rifle for no reason. ”

Everyone nodded thoughtfully, and they all turned their eyes to Lin Jiang again, hoping that he could give them a satisfactory answer. Many of them have been following Lin Jiang since June and have been following him until September. Even Xia Qianqian and Liang Jing had been in contact with Lin Jiang and others since July, and the time was not a few days behind. They could clearly detect Lin Jiang's changes, and he would not make such a low-level mistake.

Lin Jiang smiled slightly, as if he didn't expect everyone to believe him so much, and then took out a Type 95 automatic rifle from a backpack. Said lightly: "The Type 95 automatic rifle is too exposed, so it is easy to be found with it, if I guess correctly." Every once in a while the army came back to recruit soldiers, and at that time someone from each tent had to be involved, otherwise they would definitely be sent to work in the fields. ”

"How do you know that someone must participate, there is no need for the army to be so tough, there are hundreds of thousands of people in this human base." Ma Xiaofeng frowned slightly, and said what he thought in his heart, after all, he didn't believe that the army would force their survivors to join the army so forcibly.

Lin Jiang's eyes suddenly turned cold, it was hard to believe that he would have such a look, looking at the Type 95 automatic rifle in his hand. After a long time, Lin Jiang said lightly: "Because when I was wandering around with you today, I have already seen part of this so-called human base, maybe you didn't notice that there are actually very few men in each tent." There are even some tents where there are only girls, and if such a situation occurs, it would be too unconscionable. It's not that girls are looked down upon, it's that boys can't be fewer than girls, and this quantitative gap is too problematic. ”

"When the army goes out to search for survivors and find supplies, there are casualties, and these casualties need to be filled. Because if the army is too small, it will not be able to manage such a large human base, and in that case they will force you to join them on the factor of food. In principle, it is to make you voluntary, but in essence to persecute you, and you do not realize that most of the men live in the west and east. These two sides are the most dangerous areas, and these bureaucrats are trying to make us aware of that. ”

After listening to Lin Jiang's explanation, everyone savored it carefully, and then suddenly realized. Although they only entered the human base last night, the high walls here can give them a sense of security, but the army and bureaucracy here. They all seem to have great contempt for them, as if they are looking at inferior creatures, and even the small street office can apply their faces to them at will. Thinking of the scene of the middle-aged man last night, they were all very disgusted.

After a few brief conversations, the group finally decided to sell the Type 95 automatic rifle, after all, there were survivors all around. Inevitably, something will happen, but it is better to sell this Type 95 automatic rifle, since they know that the news of recruitment will come, they only need to have two QSZ92 semi-automatic pistols. After all, there are no zombies in it, and exchanging supplies will also be of great help to their lives, after all, just eating steamed buns can't supplement the necessary nutrients for people.

Lin Jiang left this time with Cheng Xi, after all, this former field teammate was still able to protect them in case of an emergency. After lunch, Lin Jiang was about to look for the black market hidden in the outer layer, and when she was about to step out of the tent, a snow-white hand grabbed his arm. Lin Jiang was stunned and slowly turned his head, only to see Li Wenwen standing in front of him, stepping forward to see after putting something in Lin Jiang's hand. Only then did he say softly: "Be careful, I'll wait for you to come back." ”

Nodding, Lin Jiang looked down and realized that it was a QSZ92 semi-automatic pistol, and put it in his trouser pocket. With a slight smile and turned her head, she left the tent, and as Lin Jiang and the others left, Li Wenwen returned to the tent and sat up again. Looking at Li Wenwen who came back, Xia Qianqian and Liang Jing couldn't help but hurriedly stepped forward and asked curiously: "Sister Wen, you just gave Lin Jiang the QSZ92 semi-automatic pistol, were you afraid that something would happen to him?" When have you been together, look at how close you have been during this time. ”

Li Wenwen's pretty face flushed, glanced at them, and hurriedly cleaned up what she had eaten just now. Seeing this, Xia Qianqian and Liang Jing also hurriedly went up to help, and the remaining two men, Wu Silan and Tang Peiyao, who were bored, also went out for a walk.

Lin Jiang, who left the tent to look for the black market, didn't spend much time, he walked towards the place with the most dense crowds. I saw that in the outer south, there was a large group of tents here, where all kinds of things were being sold, and there were people selling bullets. It's just something like a firearm, but it wasn't discovered by Lin Jiang.

Suddenly, Lin Jiang's eyes lit up, and there were two figures standing there. A man was wearing a suit, and the two were selling all kinds of knives, guns and sticks there, and Ma Xiaofeng also found out about the situation over there, and couldn't help but shrink his eyes. Without the slightest hesitation, the three of them walked straight towards the stall.
