Lu Song, who was standing on the side, saw Lin Chuan and whispered something to the people who were eating, so they immediately stopped - the food itself was not much, and it had basically been eaten by them.
The somewhat bald man walked over.
"Director Lin, hey, I'm really sorry to let you come out to greet us in person." He said with a smile on his face. "These two little bastards have to say that they are hungry when they come here, so they have no choice but to find something for them to eat, which makes you laugh."
He casually slapped the boy next to him, and the boy immediately replied with expletives.
Lin Chuan frowned.
Zhou Tao introduced with some embarrassment that this man was Wang Yong, the boss of the Wang family, and the other younger one was his younger brother Wang Hao, and the one who was slapped was Wang Yong's son Wang Wei.
"They're the kind of people, a little rude, but they're not bad, don't take it personally." He said to Lin Chuan with some humility.
The Wang brothers expressed their willingness to join Lin Chuan with a very humble attitude, and at the same time showed Lin Chuan the muscles in their bodies. The two of them were almost the strongest men in a team that was generally malnourished.
"You'll be able to use our brother!" Wang Yong said with a flattering smile.
Lin Chuan did not punish their actions, they had not officially joined the base, although this kind of behavior was disgusting, but it did not make Lin Chuan have the idea of severely punishing them.
He just regarded the behavior of the Wang family as a kind of pure selfishness, these people had poor conduct, but their number could only account for a few percent of the team, and Lin Chuan thought that they would soon be assimilated by the atmosphere of the team.
He was going to put them in the least trustworthy group and let them take on some of the less important work. If they can stand the test, let them take on more important tasks.
He was more concerned about the repair shop owner named Hoss, who was not tall, looked to be in his forties, wore black-rimmed glasses, and looked wooden and silent, making it hard to believe that he had once been an avid motorcycle remodeler.
After taking them into the base, Lin Chuan couldn't wait to ask him about making zuò weapons. He claimed that he had made some weapons such as sabers and sold them online as genuine products, and he also tried to make crossbows, but he eventually gave up because it was inconvenient to mail them, so he thought that he should be able to make steel crossbows that could be used and had a certain accuracy.
This news made Lin Chuan overjoyed, he put the unhappiness just now, and after simply settling the newcomers, he pulled Hoth into the equipment group and worked with the members of the equipment team.
Hoss's theoretical foundation was obviously not as high as that of Wang Qinian, but he was worthy of being a man who had actually engaged in weapons processing at home, and immediately proposed an alternative to the current lack of materials and tools, and that afternoon they succeeded in making nearly thirty spears with small hacksaws, files, and water pipes found outside, which were far more robust and lethal than those of the previous ones.
Wang Qinian highly praised Lin Chuan's decision to accept this group of newcomers at the regular meeting after dinner, and Li Mingfeng and the tank had to admit that the newly provided spears were much better than the original, but Li Mingfeng still had reservations about the appointment of others, except for Zhou Tao who was robbed by the tank, even veterans like Lu Song were not even selected into the reconnaissance group and combat group, and in the end they could only be placed under Zeng Yu and Jiang Ming, and the old man and children were in charge of Lu Guangping.
Lin Chuan quietly asked Li Mingfeng the reason after the meeting.
"I can't trust them." Li Mingfeng replied directly. "That Lu Song has an old grudge against me and the tank, and I don't feel comfortable handing over my back to them. As for the others, we'll have to see. ”
And that's not all.
They had been in the area for almost a month, and they knew very well what was nearby, but there were things they didn't need before, and there were things they couldn't get their hands on.
The next day, Zhou Tao led the combat team and the material team to sweep several places, they got more food, and also found a wrought iron shop and an electric car repair shop that had not been touched at all, and got many tools and much-needed welders, grinders, bending machines, cutting machines, and even a small manual lathe.
Wang Qinian was so happy that he couldn't find the north, and promised Lin Chuan that he would be able to build a steel crossbow that could be used normally within ten days, and then they could start making giant crossbows and giant hunting traps on this basis, and another group of people under him also found a way to use gasoline as Molotov cocktails, and were solving the safety problem of flamethrowers.
This made Lin Chuan completely relieved, and he put his attention on the reconnaissance of the warehouse area.
******
"Someone went in." Tank said to Lin Chuan.
"What?" Lin Chuan couldn't believe his ears.
The two of them were faced with a grain warehouse closest to the base, where the rice was piled up and well preserved. There was no rain leakage in the building, and all the rice bags were piled up on wooden shelves about 30 centimeters high, all the way up to the roof.
"Somebody went in there." Tank said again. He then told Lin Chuan that the top layer of the stack of rice on the right side looked different from yesterday, as if someone had moved some of it.
"Those monsters inadvertently moved the rice pile, right?" Lin Chuan guessed. "Even if someone does venture in, it should be a low meter, and there is no reason to climb to the top of nearly eight meters, right?"
The tank looked carefully inside the warehouse and did not answer.
"You've been here for so many days, have you ever met anyone from another team?" Lin Chuan thought of another question.
The tank shook his head.
This is also something that they have been unable to understand, according to Lin Chuan's estimate, even if the casualties are heavy, among the nearly 10 million people in the city, at least tens of thousands of people should survive.
After more than a month of consumption, the surviving teams should have almost consumed the food they had obtained in the early stage, and there should be other teams near the warehouse area who were forced to come here to find opportunities.
But after entering the inner city for so many days, they only met the two teams of Zhou Tao and Li Weilin.
Li Weilin's team was completely confused, while Zhou Tao's team survived by chanced to find two grain trucks that broke down on the side of the road.
Even so, they went from forty or so at the beginning to twenty-two at the time of the final merger. The vast majority of the dead died of disease, or died when they went out to find drinking water and wood to make a fire, according to Zhou Tao, half a month ago was the peak of monster activity, at that time there were monsters everywhere, they almost always hid in the hole and did not dare to go out, until a week ago the monster's activity slowly began to decrease.
This is also something that Lin Chuan can't understand, has the monster started to leave Jianghai? If so, where did they go?
But the extreme lack of information prevents him from making the most basic reasoning, and can only rely on guesswork.
They drew a detailed topographical map of the surroundings on a piece of paper and marked all the monsters they saw, and at that moment, the tank elbowed Lin Chuan.
"Look over there!" He whispered excitedly.
Lin Chuan didn't know what he was referring to, but after the tank's repeated descriptions, he finally saw something moving in the warehouse.
Underneath the stack of rice on the right.
They both held their breath in unison.
The shelf under the stack was only thirty centimeters high, and it was difficult for people to see what was raw, but Lin Chuan still saw a white bag fall under the shelf, and then disappear below the ground.
After a while, another bag.
"They've dug a tunnel!" Lin Chuan said in surprise.
The people inside secretly took ten bags of rice, and then stopped moving, Lin Chuan looked at the top of the rice stack carefully, and sure enough, it was different from just now.
"Dio!" Tank couldn't help but scold. "Is that okay? The people in there aren't all rats, right? ”
"Maybe, the people in there are amazing!" Lin Chuan said in an exclamatory tone. He had never thought of such a method, but he had to admit that the person who came up with it was much smarter than him.
The floor of that warehouse should not be very thick concrete, Lin Chuan estimated that the number would not exceed two hundred, and there would generally be no steel bars inside. Compared to the passage they had dug in the previous shelter, it would be very difficult to dig such a tunnel.
But digging this tunnel requires exponential caution, patience and courage, there are monsters less than five meters from there, they have to make sure that there is no sound during the excavation, and they have to think of a way to hide the smell, and they can't have any accidents during the long excavation process, otherwise all the work will be lost.
If they hadn't been extremely careful, they would have been monsters a long time ago.
"They probably didn't dig through it for long." Tank said. "We've been here several times to scout this warehouse, and the stack of rice is the only one that has changed today."
"Where do you think they started digging?" Lin Chuan asked. He suddenly wanted to meet them, and the team that could come up with such a solution and successfully implement it must have extraordinary discipline, and he felt that he must be able to be his companion, or at least an ally.
"Who knows?" Tank reluctantly replied that this was not his strength.
Lin Chuan began to think about where he would start if it were himself.
That place should not be too far from the warehouse, otherwise they would not have been able to complete such a project. Then their starting point should not be the house near the warehouse, because the nearest house that can avoid the monster is also two hundred meters away.
Then, the starting point of the tunnel should be a sewer near the warehouse, a cable trench, or a telecommunications pipeline.
"Want to find them?" He said to the tank.
"Whatever." The tank shrugged and replied.
"Then let's go." Lin Chuan said.
