Gene of Brilliant City 13 Division

Chapter 2327 Merchant
It was sunny in the afternoon, and it had just rained a few times. The sky was exceptionally clear and clean. Allen sat quietly on an observation platform in the fortress, enjoying afternoon tea and some snacks. There were some books on the table beside him. , Several relatives were talking about "God".

Now there are rumors on the entire grassland about the gods coming from the mountains, and about the events in the area where the epidemic occurred a month ago. Allen has asked his staff to inquire about it, and it is true.

But many people are skeptical, after all, the credibility of this matter is not high.

Allen looked at the books on the table, looked at a young nephew and said.

"It's okay to read more."

Alan's nephew Nick was a little disdainful.

"Uncle, what's the use of reading, it's better to hurry up and strengthen the fortress."

Allen smiled helplessly, and the other young people also had the same attitude. They all carried weapons, and they trained and stood guard every day, or went to the mountains to help.

"Books are the most precious wealth of human beings in this world. Each of you takes one. I will test you in a few days. Read it when you have nothing to do."

A few young people chose books at random with some reluctance. Allen stood up and looked at the farmland in the distance. It is now winter, but it does not feel like winter at all. Instead, it looks more like summer. The climate has completely changed. .

The scorching of the sun made the crops on this grassland grow more abundantly, Alan asked.

"Are you sure that the scientists from the mountains really made the medicine?"

nephew Nick said.

"Uncle, it's true. I asked the sick person and a doctor before. They all explained the whole process clearly. But God's words should be bragging."

Allen just smiled slightly. Although he didn't quite believe that the power beyond human understanding was real, what was certain was that this incident was not groundless.

There are more and more people on the grassland, and people still come here every day. After all, the people in the two cities below couldn't bear it anymore. They still came up, including some gangsters, but the few big ones nearby The gangs blocked the gangsters.

Because the last time they sent people to the city to get supplies, these gang members ambushed them.

The battle just ended a few days ago, and the few groups that came up were wiped out.

Looking at the dense crowd of people on the grassland, Allen felt that the worst era would not be too far away. The sun was so intense and hot that Allen was a little worried, because according to normal circumstances, the distance had already fallen into darkness, so the sun It should slowly disappear.

Allen looked at the sky. He didn't think this was the so-called miracle that many people said. It was very likely that the people in the space station had interfered manually.

Because Allen used to watch some science-related things, he knew something about the country of the Asgard space station floating in the sky, and he had imagined that it would be great if he could go up.

But the space station only needs people with superior IQ, or people with very professional skills, and ordinary people are not qualified to set foot on it.

Everything today is too bad for human beings. Allen will be anxious for a while every day, because he knows how bad the future will be, and the prosperity and hope in front of him are just false.

Unless someone can control everything at this juncture and establish corresponding laws, this form of human society will collapse when the crisis comes.

Now that Allen has asked people to collect some metals, the wooden defensive barriers must be upgraded, otherwise a fire will kill them.

The upgrade can't be too fast, it has to be strengthened step by step, based on wood, then added metal for reinforcement, and finally poured with cement, so as to have a complete fortress.

As long as the fortress can be self-sufficient, the defense must be strengthened near the water source.

Everything can't be too fast, firstly, there is insufficient manpower, secondly, there is not enough material, and thirdly, it is impossible to expand the number of people in a short time.

Everything has to be done step by step. Allen can already imagine what it will look like in four or five years, because everything in this place has been settled long ago. From Allen's point of view, this place is more like an arena.

All the conditions in the huge arena have been met. Human beings not only need to face a worse and harsher environment in the future, but also need to deal with threats from other people.

And one day, when human beings have to fight, then everything in the entire arena will be reduced to a tool for survival.

Human beings can do any cruel thing in order to survive. This is the innate instinct of animals.

"Time will tell."

Allen got up, he planned to go out for a walk, and then talk to a few groups about supplies, they can exchange wood and some mountain goods in the forest with them for metal, but obviously they want to raise the price, Allen plans to jump One or two of them have been directly traded.

Metal is already a scarce resource on this prairie. The gangs noticed it a long time ago, and then frantically sent people to the road to dismantle the car and bring everything back.

Because these things will be very useful in the future, the weapons and ammunition in the hands of gangs who still hold modern weapons have almost bottomed out, and they do not have the conditions to make bullets, so the future will return to the era of cold weapons.

And if you want to make cold weapons, metal is an extremely important material. Part of the metal that Allen hoarded has been used to make cold weapons. Because the wood resources in the mountains are rich, Allen makes spears. Fight with the best weapons and bows with metal arrows.

The melee combat is a scimitar, which is a very effective weapon in actual combat. Allen plans to slowly equip everyone as much as possible, and then train, so that he can respond at any time when a crisis arises in the future.

Soon Allen left the fortress with more than 30 armed men. They came all the way to a farmland, and soon found a group of people. They were the closest small group to Allen and the others, with more than 100 people. , with a lot of metal objects in his hand.

"Alan, the price you gave is too low. The metal can be used repeatedly as long as it is dissolved, but many of the things you gave us are consumables, so the original transaction quantity is not applicable if you want it."

Allen nodded and said.

"It's useless for you to hold these metals now. We are trying to find a way to mine them recently."

The leader in front of him looked surprised, and then asked.

"Have you found the mine?"

Allen nodded.

"It's just that some materials are missing now, because some mining tools need to be built."

Alan's subordinates also knew that Alan was just bluffing the other party, because there was no talent in this field among them. Although there might be mineral deposits in the mountains and forests, they were unable to find them.

"It's up to you to trade or not. It's still the original quantity. If you don't want to trade, forget it."

"and many more."

The leader hesitated a little, because if he refused, if Allen and the others mined the mine in the future, it would not be worthwhile if they were stuck by Allen and the others for what they wanted to trade.

"We can give you some metal, but on one condition."

"In the future, when we mine ore, we will trade with you on the same terms."

The leader nodded in satisfaction, and then said that he would send his subordinates to the gate of the fortress later to make a face-to-face transaction.

Allen also nodded, and then Allen took people to the next place. Allen only planned to find two groups of people, because there were too many, and such lies would be easily seen through, which would cause trouble.

If you are looking for two groups of people, many other people should not be able to help but come to the door after hearing such a thing, because Allen knows very well that people like this don't want to suffer at all. Once they find a little opportunity, Will do everything possible to get it.

At that time, Allen only needs to continue to trade with these gangs. When he holds a large amount of metal objects, if they keep asking about the progress, and Allen only needs to give them some dissolved metal objects, they will naturally Believe the lie.

Everything has been planned, and the negotiation between Allen and the second group members is relatively smooth. The other party expressed their interest, and also agreed that when the mine is mined, they must trade with them. They can use some seeds or food to trade.

"As expected of an uncle."

Nick smiled and said, Allen nodded, such a thing is very applicable in such an era, because in the past in some eras where information technology was not well developed, many people made themselves rich with their left hand and right hand.

Allen is no exception, because he has great advantages on the surface, so others will naturally believe him, and then Allen led the people all the way to a place eight kilometers away, where a medium-sized gang is located.

Allen came here for nothing else, just to allow this gang to lend himself a few civil engineers, because now Allen plans to build some grottoes on the mountain wall as shelters or some residences, including some Food storage room, but although he has someone who knows how to build it, many people dare not easily guarantee the structural engineering of civil engineering.

Because this requires extremely professional knowledge, Alan has talked with this heavy gang several times, but the other party has always hung him, and the other party even asked Alan and the others to trade weapons.

Of course, it is impossible for Allen to agree. After all, weapons are scarce now, and if they are traded out, they will reduce their own strength. This is impossible for Allen, but Allen has prepared a reason that the other party cannot refuse today. .

"That's the same sentence, if you can bring weapons, I can lend you two engineers. You also know how important engineers are in this era, right?"

Of course Allen knows that their houses are only three stories high, which is already the limit, and some houses are starting to have problems due to structural pressure problems, and now they must have talents in this field.

Allen said with a smile.

"Can't you trade with other things?"

"what?"

Allen said with a smile.

"We have good medical conditions there. If your people are injured and need medical treatment in the future, we can provide medical treatment for your people for free."

The leader laughed when he heard it, because he didn't believe it at all, and soon Allen took out a mobile phone, opened it, and called up the photos of the medical center that had been taken early in the morning, as well as the video photos of the doctors performing operations, etc. wait.

The other party thought about it, and Allen grasped the other party's weakness. There was no doctor in this medium-sized gang. Some of them died before they got sick, and many of them died, even after someone was injured.

The leader was in a bit of trouble, because he knew that he would also get sick and injured, and if he didn't get effective medical treatment, he would die easily.

"What if you go back on your word?"

The leader asked, and Allen said with a smile.

"In the future, I will still need to borrow people from you. Of course, this kind of thing can't be just a one-shot deal, right?"

After thinking about it, the boss agreed, because he really couldn't refuse such a condition, but he made a request. On the premise of the engineer's help, he would immediately send the patient on his side for treatment. If the treatment was cured, they would immediately send more engineer passed by.

"This is fine, but how many people?"

"About ten people."

The reason why the leader didn't refuse was because there was his wife among them. She had been ill for a while, and she would die if she didn't get treatment. In this grassland, there was no medicine to take at all.

"No problem at all, my doctors will take care of them."

Immediately after the agreement was reached, the leader dispatched more than ten people and two engineers, and took the patients away with Allen. Although some subordinates reminded the leader to be careful of fraud, the leader was not worried because the demand was mutual.

Allen's hanging heart relaxed. He led the people along the way and talked about some situations. He would provide them with rooms, but asked them to only move around the room and in the yard. These people also nodded and agreed.

At dusk, Allen brought people to the fortress. After the small door of the fortress opened, everyone went in. Allen smiled happily, and the matter was finally done.

Rather than saying that Allen is a leader, he is a qualified businessman. Through some of his own operations, Allen has made the entire fortress stronger and stronger.

Soon they went up to the foot of the mountain, and many members of the gang looked at the medical equipment inside in astonishment, which was far more advanced than what was shown in the video. The doctors were also ready, some patients walked over, and the gang members who accompanied them also Let your guard down.

"It's almost time for any of you to go back and tell your leader that everything here is fine. Two Mr. Engineers, please go upstairs. I hope to have a good talk with you about my idea."
