Chapter 203: Recruiting Members

After everyone chatted for a while, the old man's laughter came from the door of the ancestral hall, and several people turned their heads to look and saw the old man changing into a set of clean clothes and walking towards everyone.

Behind him was a young man named Zhou Hao, dragging a tray with a few teacups on it.

"Everyone! Long waiting! ”

"The old man's affairs outside have all been taken care of?" Shen Chen asked lightly.

The smile on the old man's face suddenly froze, and a trace of embarrassment appeared on his face.

"It's all taken care of! I'm really sorry for what happened just now, I hope Captain Shen, you don't take it to heart. Aunt Li is also concerned about chaos, after all, in this last world, women lose their men as backers, and the future will be very sad. ”

The old man sighed deeply, "Don't talk about this, let's have a cup of tea to quench your thirst." ”

Seeing the eyes of the eldest grandfather, Zhou Hao hurriedly put the teacups in his hand on the coffee table of Shen Chen and the others one by one, but Shen Chen and the others did not reach out to take it.

After the old man sat down by himself, he saw that everyone had no intention of making a move, and he instantly understood something.

Stretched out his hand to take the young man's tea, and said to a few people: "Thank you for your help just now, old man, I will toast you with tea instead of wine." ”

After saying that, he drank the tea in his hand in one gulp.

Seeing the old man's performance, Shen Chen nodded at everyone, picked up the teacups and drank them, to be honest, several people were really a little thirsty.

"Good tea!"

Although Shen Chen didn't understand the tea ceremony, the tea in front of him felt a fragrance spread between his mouths as soon as he took his mouth, compared to the cheap tea he drank before, what he drank before was a bunch of bitter water.

"Huh! Unexpectedly, Captain Shen also studied the tea ceremony, this tea is unique to our Zhoujia Village, it has been passed down from generation to generation by our ancestors, and it has never been passed on. ”

"The old man laughed, I am a rough person who knows what kind of tea ceremony, but after the end of the world, I rarely drink tea, which is a little emotional."

"That's easy to say, when Captain Shen and you leave, I'll ask someone to prepare some for you to bring, which can be regarded as a thank you gift for us."

The meaning of the old man's words was obvious, that is, he didn't plan to leave Shen Chen and a few people, and of course Shen Chen and they didn't mean to stay.

"Since you said so, Elder Zhou, I won't be hypocritical, in fact, the main purpose of our coming to help your village this time is to recruit some team members."

"Recruiting members?" The old man wondered.

Shen Chen nodded and said, "Yes, I said earlier that the destination of our team is Nanjing, and now the number of people in our team is insufficient and we need to replenish some." I just happened to meet Zhou Xiaocui who came out of your village, otherwise we wouldn't have risked the danger to come here to rescue, after all, it is the end of the world, and it is not easy for us to protect ourselves. ”

After speaking, Shen Chen took a sip of tea, put the teacup on the coffee table, lightly tapped his fingers on the table, and looked at the old man opposite.

The old man's face was a little cloudy, after all, population is also an important resource in the last days.

"How many people do you need?" After a long time, the old man said such a sentence.

Shen Chen breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Not much, we just need twenty young guys!" ”

"Twenty? No way? The old man shook his head like a rattle, "There are only 100 men, women and children in our village, and there are less than 50 young people. ”

"Then we can't come for nothing, can we!" Shen Chen said lightly.

"You can recruit up to ten!" ’

"Fifteen!"

"Thirteen!"

"Fifteen!"

The two of them cut the price as if they were buying vegetables in the vegetable market, and several people on the side were dumbfounded.

"At least fifteen people, Elder Zhou, think about it yourself, in ancient times, once there was a war, some big families would send their children to different places to settle down, in order to let their families continue in the troubled times.

Now there are zombies everywhere, what if you are surrounded by zombies again that day? There may not be people like us to come to the rescue, to put it mildly, I am afraid that the whole village will not be spared by then.

At that time, your Zhou family will be wiped out, so it is better to divide all the children to follow us. Although we are moving around, we are quite well-armed and equipped, and we still have antibodies in our team, so even if we are injured by zombies, we have a chance to survive.

You should always understand the trade-offs, so I won't say much about them. ”

In fact, Shen Chen's words made Zhou Lao a little shaken, as the head of a village, coupled with the thoughts of the older generation, he attaches great importance to the continuation of the family.

"Alright! Fifteen people will be fifteen, and Xiaocui's girl will stay in your team, and you will choose fourteen young people in the village, but the ugly words are ahead, whether they are willing to follow you is another matter. ”

Shen Chen nodded, "Okay!" Don't worry, if no one wants to follow us, we won't force it! ”

Seeing that Shen Chen agreed, the old man pursed his lips and said after thinking about it, "I have another condition!" ”

"What conditions? You said! ”

"I hope you can give us some guns and some bullets!"

Shen Chen thought for a while, "Yes!" But you'll have to trade some vegetables with us! ”

As early as when he entered the village, Shen Chen saw a vegetable patch in the cottage, and the vegetables in it looked very attractive.

"No problem!"

The old man thought that Shen Chen wanted something, but he didn't expect that he just wanted some vegetables, this thing they had here, when they evacuated, they didn't bring some crop seeds.

"Good! We came out with a total of four rifles and five pistols this time! So we'll give you three rifles and three pistols, and three hundred rifle bullets, and sixty pistol bullets. ”

"Yes! Then thank you, Captain Shen. ”

Both hair is a joy for all!

…………………..

Seeing that time was running out, at Shen Chen's request, the old man asked Zhou Hao to gather all the young people in the village at the entrance of the ancestral hall.

Shen Chen looked at the dozens of men and women in front of him, all of whom were around twenty to thirty years old, and couldn't help but nod It seems that this old boy is quite honest, I don't know if it was Shen Chen's so-called nonsense about the continuation of the family bloodline that moved him.

It's not that these young people are more or less thin, but that's okay.

"Let me introduce myself first, my name is Shen Chen, I am the captain of a team in the last days, the purpose of your coming, I want to come to your grandfather also told you, as long as you join the team, you are your own people, I will treat you like other team members, the only thing you have to do is to obey orders and try to survive in this last world."

Shen Chen shouted at these people.

"Will you give us guns when you join? I want to avenge my loved ones! ”

"Yes! But you'll have to train for a while! ”

"Good! Do I join? ”

"Do you really have antibodies in your team? Can you survive being scratched by zombies and injected with injections? ”

"Yes! However, our current antibodies can only face the damage of ordinary zombies, and it is useless if the mutant zombies scratch the injection! I'll have to make this clear to you, but we have virology experts on our team, and we will be able to develop antibodies against mutant zombies later. ”

Shen Chen smiled slightly, it seemed that the matter of the antibody had already taken effect.

"Good! I'm joining! Anyway, I'm the only one left in my family, and I want revenge! ”

"I'm ........ too"
