Chapter 217: Investment?

Xiao Ran didn't guess wrong, since Xiao Ran helped Wei Yun and them take down the thermal power plant last time, Wei Yun and the others led the team to take the waterworks.

Now that the water and electricity supply has been restored near the town hall, this change alone is enough to boost the morale of all the survivors under Luo Ji's management, and the support for Luo Ji has reached a whole new level.

A few times before, although Xiao Ran could also see a lot of survivors, most of the survivors had numbness and despair on their faces, and they didn't have any expectations for the future, but this time, Xiao Ran saw that the smiles on the faces of the people here were obviously a lot more.

This smile is definitely not fake, but from the heart.

When I got to the office, someone actually brought me three cups of coffee.

"Brother Xiao Ran, are you here this time for the power stone?"

Wei Yun knew that it was impossible to avoid this matter, so instead of waiting for Xiao Ran to speak, it was better for him to take the initiative.

Xiao Ran nodded, "That's right, the month of grace given to you is coming up, and it's time for you to fulfill your promise." ”

"Of course! Administrator Luo Ji has asked me to have the power stones ready for you at any time. ”

Wei Yun paused, "But I think you have a better choice." ”

Xiao Ran smiled, and when Wei Yun happily said that he could let Xiao Ran take away the energy stone, he felt that this matter was not so simple.

However, considering Luo Ji's style of doing things, Xiao Ran felt that it was not impossible to listen to what the other party meant.

"Really? Let's talk about it. ”

Wei Yun said: "What do you think of using this power stone as an investment?" ”

"What kind of investment law?"

"It's very simple, you can put the power stone that originally belonged to you here first, and if it is the principal, we can pay interest on a daily basis, 20 shells per day, and the upper limit is 2,000 rounds.

That is to say, within 100 days, you can come to us at any time to get back your power stones, and we will pay you additional interest; After 100 days, the interest stops and we will return the gem to you. What do you think? ”

Hearing this plan, Xiao Ran was indeed a little moved.

Last time he helped Wei Yun and them take the thermal power plant, Xiao Ran got 2,000 shells, but he used up more than 200 rounds when attacking the plantation and killing the fully balanced evolution zombies.

In this way, 2,000 shells will not take long, and after a few more battles, they will be gone.

Before Chen An awakened for the second time and became a second-order ability, his main combat power was machine guns, so Xiao Ran really had the intention to get Chen An some more cannonballs back.

And Xiao Ran still has three power stones in his hand, one is buried in the Chinese medicine garden, and two are for his own use.

Among the two kept for his own use, one is the size of an egg, and the energy contained is more than several times that of other power stones, so Xiao Ran has no shortage of energy stones in a short time.

As long as he can ensure that Luo Ji and Wei Yun are talking to each other, Xiao Ran will leave the energy stone here as a cost to Wei Yun, which is indeed a sure deal.

As for how to make Luo Ji and Wei Yun talk, the best way is to increase their combat power.

Strong combat power is the guarantee that Xiao Ran, Luo Ji and Wei Yun have equal voice and trading qualifications.

And now Xiao Ran is most lacking combat power, so he really wants to try.

Strictly speaking, Wei Yun still owes him a favor, and even the official survivor base in Los Angeles owes him a favor.

If he didn't have enough strength, Xiao Ran wouldn't have proposed such a condition to Wei Yun in the first place.

As long as the energy supply is guaranteed, Xiao Ran will definitely be able to make a name for himself in Los Angeles, even if he can't become the first person in Los Angeles, he will definitely be the first echelon.

"Okay, then do as you say, but the interest will be settled monthly."

"Of course, you don't have to worry about this."

Wei Yun saw Xiao Ran agree, and his heart became happy.

It looks like they lost money on this deal, but strictly speaking, they still took advantage of it.

Now they already know the preciousness of the power stone, a power stone can make the combat power of several or even a dozen capable people be significantly improved, and the sooner the strength is improved, the better.

High strength means that they can control a larger area, get more materials, and get more power stones.

Energy stones are scarce and very precious now, but what about three months?

After three months, there will be a large number of capable people among the human race, and there will be more energy stones to be discovered, and at that time, the power stones will definitely not be as precious as they are now, and they will not feel distressed if they are returned to Xiao Ran.

It's like taking out a loan to buy a house, living in it first and enjoying it, and talking about it later.

Since the matter of the power stone was over for the time being, Xiao Ran was about to go back, but Wei Yun stopped him again.

"Brother Xiao Ran, we have already won the thermal power plant and the water plant, do you want to connect the tap water there?"

Xiao Ran shook his head and refused, because he had already drilled a well in advance, and he had also installed a water purifier, drinking water was not a problem, and he could even take a hot shower every day.

However, Wei Yun took the initiative to show goodwill, which still made Xiao Ran vigilant.

This kid, I'm afraid he didn't have a good heart.

Wei Yun didn't expect Xiao Ran to refuse, he was obviously stunned for a moment, and finally decided to tell Xiao Ran directly.

"Okay, I'm not going to sell it, we plan to take down the port, but there are too many zombies in it, and there are at least thirty evolved zombies, and it's still a little difficult with our current strength, so we want to cooperate with you."

Xiao Ran asked, "Don't you have artillery and machine guns?" What other evolutionary zombies can stop you? ”

Wei Yun smiled bitterly, "Our purpose is not to simply take the port, but to get those materials in the port, if we use artillery or machine guns, we can indeed easily kill a large number of zombies, but it may also cause great losses to the materials in the port, which is not in line with our original intention, so in this operation, we can only carry light weapons."

To tell you the truth, we organized an attack a few days ago, but it didn't succeed, the number of evolved zombies in it is a bit large, and the ability is a little special, we really have no choice. ”

Xiao Ran nodded slightly and understood.

In the previous life, a large number of zombies had indeed gathered in the harbor, and there were also many second-order evolved zombies, and their combat power was strong, and it was almost a forbidden area for humans.

No matter how powerful a person enters the port, he may not be able to get out alive.

Although there were no second-order evolutionary zombies yet, with the number of first-order evolutionary zombies and the restriction that they could not use heavy weapons, it was enough to discourage Wei Yun and them.

But there are indeed a lot of supplies in the port, and the materials are full of diversity, if you can get all those supplies, it will be very helpful for the construction of the Los Angeles survivor base.

Luo Ji and Wei Yun have taken the thermal power plant and the waterworks, and now is the time to be in high spirits, of course, they must try to attack the port and see if they can take it.

Now that Wei Yun took the initiative to speak, this became an opportunity for Xiao Ran.

After all, Xiao Ran can't work for nothing, right?

"And how are you going to hire me this time?"
