Chapter 334: Their Choice
In the summer, a flood caused great damage, and all the crops were submerged, resulting in no harvest of plant particles planted in the spring.
Fortunately, after the defense of Yanjing in the north, most of the zombies in the north have been wiped out, and the black soil in the three eastern provinces has burst out with strong production capacity, not only the steel industry has been revitalized, but also the agriculture has obtained a bumper harvest, and the headquarters quickly mobilized autumn grain to the south for disaster relief and quickly alleviated the famine.
Seeing that the famine failed to cause harm, the headquarters also relieved, although the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River failed to produce grain in the second year of the end, but the plains of Northeast China and North China produced countless grains, plus the zombies in Shu were cleaned up early, under the Tuntian policy, a bumper harvest was also obtained, and for a time, the food crisis was lifted in the face of the strong productive forces on the human side.
However, human beings have food to eat, but the animals in the mountains are hungry and crazy, after more than a year of recuperation, the animals in the mountains reproduce rapidly, and the food in the mountains is not much, after eating, they are devouring each other, and as a result, autumn comes, the mountains are full of yellow leaves, and the herbivores have nothing to eat, and they will be eaten by carnivores sooner or later if they do not go down the mountain.
In this case, from north to south, all the mutant beasts in the mountains have come down the mountain, aiming at the crops that have not yet been harvested, and they will start to waste wildly, some people will eat people, and no one will eat crops, and for a while, the harm caused by mutant beasts is everywhere.
Countless people can only hide in the city to avoid being attacked by mutant beasts.
On the side of Yuzhou, the harm caused by mutant beasts is greatly reduced, and the reason is very simple, Yuzhou allows the profession of mercenaries to appear, so a large number of people began to hunt mutant beasts, these people became evolutionaries after eating the meat of mutant beasts, and then sold the corpses of mutant beasts in exchange for food stamps, and suddenly, life became much more nourishing.
Yu Muhe and more than 20 people under his command are eating and drinking in the stew shop, and the mercenary team they form is the most dazzling existence of all the mercenaries, don't look at the small number, that is, more than 20 people, but before that, they ambushed thirty mutant wild boars, these mutant wild boars are a small family, and as a result, they entered the trap when they went down the mountain, and the whole was served in one pot.
"Brothers, eat and drink well, today's stew is considered to be my invitation, I finally killed so many mutant wild boars, and exchanged thousands of catties of food stamps, if I don't eat well, wouldn't it be a big loss?" Yu Muhe stood up and said to the brothers in the store.
The rest of the people hurriedly thanked them, and they were so happy to be able to eat stewed for free.
However, at this time, someone spoke: "Boss, just ask us to eat some real meat, these offals are tired of eating." ”
Yu Muhe thought for a while, nodded and said, "It's okay, let's be extravagant today, and it can be regarded as a blessing to come with thirty catties of pork." ”
At present, the most expensive price in Yuzhou is meat, ten catties of food stamps can be exchanged for one catty of meat, and the city lord's mansion is also selling luncheon meat, two catties of food stamps can be exchanged for one catty of luncheon meat, as for animal offal, one catty of grain can be exchanged for two catties.
Therefore, the barbecue restaurants in Yuzhou have also learned well, they will sell whatever is cheap, and the real meat is too expensive, so they will sell offal, whether it is water or offal, as long as it is cleaned, it can be taken out and sold.
The owner of the stew boiled shop was a woman, and she quickly brought the mutton up, and said while bringing it: "Big brothers, these lambs, ordinary people really have no blessing to eat, the meat in Yuzhou is divided into three grades, and the people in the City Lord's Mansion eat real meat, especially in the Fengshen Palace, what do you want." The rest of the people who work in the city basically eat luncheon meat, in fact, the meat contained is at most 40%, that is, to taste the meat, as for us ordinary people, we can only eat inside

Dirty and in the water. ”
"Boss, you are really good at laughing, you have so much meat in your shop, you can still lack meat to eat?" A mercenary said with a smile.
The proprietress smiled and said, "How can I, a weak woman, have the ability to open a braised restaurant outside the city?" It's all in cooperation with others, I can only afford chop and vegetarian dishes, and the meat is provided by others, if I sell it, I can get a commission, but I definitely can't afford to eat it. ”
Yu Muhe suddenly thought of an idea at this time, and hurriedly beckoned to the proprietress and said, "Boss, otherwise, I will provide you with meat in the future, how about we cooperate?" ”
The proprietress looked embarrassed, quickly shook her head, and said: "No, no, my family lives in the city, and the person who cooperates with me is from the city lord's mansion, I can't offend him, otherwise I won't be able to live in the city, forget about this matter." ”
After finishing speaking, the proprietress could not continue to chat, and left quickly after the food was served.
Yu Mu and the brothers beside him were puzzled and asked, "Boss, why do you want to cooperate if you have nothing to do?" If we want to eat meat, we can hunt prey in the wild at any time. ”
Yu Muhe looked very rough, but he was rough and fine, and explained seriously: "Didn't you notice? When the mercenary guild buys our mutant beasts, they will always lower the price, in this case, we might as well find a way to open a store ourselves, so that our brothers will work hard outside the city, but the money they will make in the end is not enough. ”
"I think we can try it, it's good to sell it, if we can't sell it, we can sell it to the union, isn't that okay?" Someone next to him chimed in.
Yu Muhe nodded, frowned and said, "Wait until I go back in the evening and ask my son to see what he says." ”
At this time, another group of people walked in from outside, the boiled shop looks small, but it can accommodate hundreds of people, in addition to the proprietress of the hostess, there are more than a dozen waiters, plus this is a restaurant outside the city, naturally welcomed by many people.
"Boss, come fifty catties of chops, ten bottles of liquor, and a little more other vegetarian dishes, there are many people here." The man at the head looked to be in his thirties and in the prime of life, but he looked very haggard.
"Wei Tong, who are those people over there? I know all the larger mercenary groups in Yuzhou, but I don't seem to have seen these people. Yu Muhe asked the brother beside him in a low voice.
Wei Tong took out a bunch of mutton from in front of him, and replied in a low voice while eating: "This mercenary group, it is a group of people who specialize in opportunism, they ran to the south to carry the zombie corpses on the battlefield before, and then pickled them with lime and transported them to Yuzhou to sell to the trade union, don't look at them not to fight on the battlefield, but they make a lot of money." ”
"Damn, this can also make money, it's really unreasonable, we work hard to kill mutant beasts, and every day we pin our heads to the waistband of our trousers, these people can make money by stealing corpses in the south, the current way of the world, it's really incomprehensible." At this time, someone scolded in a low voice, honest hard work is always the next policy, if you can make money by hard-working, then the donkey has long been the richest man in the world.
"Don't make trouble, eat your meat skewers, how others make money, it has nothing to do with us." Yu Muhe said dissatisfiedly.
Wei Tongyi said in a low voice while eating meat: "Actually, these people have long been upset by opportunism, I heard that some mercenary groups see them unpleasantly and want to rob them halfway, these people are so depressed now, they must have been robbed, this is also their own fault, who let them only know opportunism, and their own strength is very poor, who will rob them if they don't rob them?" ”
As a mercenary, Wei Tong naturally thinks that mercenaries are meant to play a role on the battlefield, as a mercenary, although the combat effectiveness is not as good as that of professional soldiers, and the treatment is not comparable at all, but mercenaries always have to look at their own strength, if their strength is not good, don't be a mercenary, this group of people in front of them is completely a shame among mercenaries.
And a bunch of people who just came in
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
After sitting down, he began to curse and become extremely emotional.
"it, these people in the south are so shameless that they drove us back."
"That's it, we've been doing it for three months, and as a result, it's shameless to tell us at this time that we can't take away zombie corpses."
"It's okay now, the financial route is broken, and don't think about making money by transporting corpses in the future."
A group of people couldn't help but slap the table to vent, watching the financial road cut off, it was really unbearable, as the saying goes, cutting off people's financial routes is like killing parents, and the financial road is now broken, and there will be no way to transport zombie corpses for profit in the future, which is simply as uncomfortable as making these people die their parents.
It turned out that when this group heard the news that they could exchange zombie corpses for food stamps, they immediately started to act, organized a group of people to go to the two southern provinces, took away all the corpses on the battlefield, salted them with lime and sent them to Yuzhou.
However, after three months, the situation immediately changed, it turned out that the local gangs in the two southern provinces were obstructing, and they also heard the news that they could profit from the zombie corpses, so they immediately divided the benefits on the spot, kept all the zombie corpses on the battlefield, and did business for Yuzhou alone, and sometimes in exchange for the evolution base, which was a great thing.
So, Yuzhou went to the southern provinces to find the zombie corpses, but was driven away by a threat from the local gang, so that fifty or sixty of them ran to the south in vain.
The man at the head picked up a bottle of wine and drank it, and then said: "Don't complain, follow me in the future, I won't let you starve, I said a long time ago that this kind of business will not last long, anyone can do it, we just seized the opportunity, and now it is not normal for others to rob the business?" ”
The man's name is Qin Xiaogao, and he is the leader of the mercenary group, and now that he has spoken, the people under him can only restrain the resentment in their hearts a little.
Qin Xiaogao said to his brothers: "The local gang is so rude, they actually drove us away, but it doesn't matter, there is always a way, you can't sell zombies, then sell fruits, there are a lot of fruits in Yunnan Province, but there are too few that can be sold, so only rich people in Yuzhou can eat fruits, it is autumn now, whether it is apples or oranges, or even mangoes, they can be sold." ”
When the brothers heard the boss say this, they also understood at this time that this is indeed the case, and now fruit is a very expensive thing in the apocalypse, and selling fruit is also a very profitable thing.
Suddenly, the haze in everyone's hearts was swept away, and they all began to discuss the matter of selling fruits, they were all people who did not want to go to the battlefield, and became mercenaries, and at this time they also thought about how to make money easily, for them, business is a very good choice.
However, at this time, a person sneered: "A group of cowardly guys who dare not go to the battlefield, only know opportunism, be careful of being robbed by others on the road, and when the time comes, the bamboo basket will be empty!" ”
Qin Xiaogao's face became ugly, and he walked over with someone and asked, "You say it again!" ”
It was a man sitting in the corner, alone and with nothing but a long knife with him. And the man's clothes are also very tattered, and he looks like a flower child who came out of nowhere.
Qin Xiaogao was very angry at this time, even if someone wanted to accuse him of being greedy for life and afraid of death, it would not be the person in front of him, don't think that he is such a good talker! There are still dozens of brothers under his hands, and so many people don't believe that they will be afraid of a lone wolf.
"Even if I say it again, this will only be the result, what's the matter, you think I hit your sore spot, so you want to do something to me?" The lone man asked.
