Chapter 259 The sudden call

Zhou Xiaoning eliminated a small force composed of more than 100 monsters. The leader was a leopard monster in the realm of old monsters. Due to his racial talent, the instant outbreak speed of the leopard monster was even faster than some big monsters.

Now that the demon king and the ghost king don't come and only rely on a few big monsters to support the scene, the strength of the leopard monster is already very good, but it's a pity that he met Zhou Xiaoning today.

"8000 source points, it's not bad for a small boss."

Based on the principle that no matter how small a mosquito is, it is still flesh. Although the source cards that exploded this round were of no great use to Zhou Xiaoning, he still kept them.Now that Liangjie City is just being built, everything is lacking, so it can't be wasted.

"You can do it now, give priority to collecting all kinds of metals." Zhou Xiaoning ordered the 5000 ghost recruits who came with him.

Now, the first-star construction of Liangjie City has been completed, but starting from the second-star, all kinds of metals are needed for the upgrade and construction of functional buildings.The resources obtained from the old demon of Montenegro are only enough to complete half of the two-star construction. There is no way, and Zhou Xiaoning's resource consumption is twice that of other lords.

It's just that in the basin, there are abundant wood and stone resources, but there are no mineral resources at all.

In desperation, Zhou Xiaoning had no choice but to go out to collect resources.

This time, Zhou Xiaoning found a hardware market. After scanning the inventory here, the metal resources obtained should be able to last until the completion of the two-star construction.

The surrounding monsters and ghost forces were all eliminated or expelled by Zhou Xiaoning. Within today, this place should be safe.

Zhou Xiaoning brought out all the ghost recruits. Anyway, they were idle in the barracks, so they might as well come out to help Zhou Xiaoning.In this way, it can not only speed up the collection of resources, but also play the role of marching training, killing two birds with one stone.

It was not the first time for those ghost recruits to do the same thing. They were familiar with the road, and soon collected a lot of metal, and piled them up in front of Zhou Xiaoning by category. After a while, they piled up several metal hills.And Zhou Xiaoning's task is to store these metals into different storage scrolls according to their types.

"Blood, Blood."

"Um, phone bug?"

In order to understand the situation in HZ City, Zhou Xiaoning has been carrying a phone bug with him during this time to facilitate contact with his father and Zhou Pingzhong.As far as Zhou Xiaoning knows, as early as eight days ago, the military had run out of ammunition and food, and now it is completely relying on the Chosen and Evolved to hold on.

But then again, facing the three-party battlefield at the same time, it is not easy for the military to persist until now, which greatly exceeded Zhou Xiaoning's expectations.

As early as the day when Liangjie City was built, Zhou Xiaoning had contacted Zhou Yimin and the others on the phone, asking his father to bring someone over to meet him.But for some reason, until now, they didn't leave. Zhou Xiaoning was really anxious to death.

I have to say that the phone bug is really a kind of magical creature. It can not only be used as a phone call, but also has a caller display function. You can know who is calling by looking at the change of the phone bug's demeanor.

For example, now, when Zhou Xiaoning sees the capable yet cynical expression on the phone bug, he knows that his father is on the other end of the phone.

Zhou Xiaoning answered the phone, and said unceremoniously: "Dad, if you want to continue to postpone, then you'd better not open your mouth. I really don't understand. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the HZ market can't hold on. Are you going to stay there?"

"Son, I..."

Seeing that Zhou Yimin wanted to say something, Zhou Xiaoning interrupted him impatiently: "Okay, Dad, don't tell me that there are too many things that need to be sorted out or that there are too many people accompanying you, and you need to make arrangements. It's just us There are only more than 2000 people from that village, so will it take a month to prepare?"

Zhou Yimin's expression was a little embarrassed. He has been doing one thing for a month, and if it is done, it will definitely be beneficial to Zhou Xiaoning.It's just that this matter has not been settled before, Zhou Yimin didn't want to make Zhou Xiaoning happy, so he didn't say it all the time, instead he used all kinds of lame reasons to delay the time.

Finally, hard work paid off, most of the work was finally done, and the remaining small part was all up to Zhou Xiaoning.

For this reason, Zhou Yimin excitedly called Zhou Xiaoning. He wanted to inform Zhou Xiaoning of the good news, but he didn't expect that as soon as the call was connected, Zhou Yimin hadn't said a word, and Zhou Xiaoning yelled at him for several minutes. The wife wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh out loud, her whole body was trembling, and she was struggling to bear it. Zhou Yimin's mood can be imagined.

"Brat, if you are by my side now, I promise to make your ass bloom!"

Zhou Yimin couldn't help but see the image of himself beating Zhou Xiaoning violently, from how to catch Zhou Xiaoning, what to use to beat her, and even what kind of pose to pose after the beating.

It can be seen from this that it is not a day or two for Zhou Yimin to want to beat Zhou Xiaoning, but his mother, Zhou Xiaoning's grandma Xie Ping, stands in the way, so that every time Zhou Yimin just comes up with this idea, he is beaten. Xie Ping nip it in the bud.As the only seedling of the old Zhou family, as long as it is not breaking the law or touching the bottom line, Xie Ping will try her best to protect Zhou Xiaoning until the end, which makes Zhou Yimin lose his temper at all, so he can only flirt with himself to vent his depressed emotions .

"Son, I don't have time to joke with you now. What I'm going to say next is very important. How much you can profit from it depends entirely on yourself."

Zhou Yimin suddenly became very serious. Based on Zhou Xiaoning's understanding of his father, once he showed such an expression, it meant that the matter was really important and there was no room for carelessness.

Zhou Xiaoning stopped complaining, and quietly listened to Zhou Yimin's narration.

It turned out that Zhou Yimin hadn't been idle for more than a month. On the contrary, he did something that stunned Zhou Xiaoning. He actually persuaded Wang Jianjun to abandon the HZ city base and lead everyone to join Zhou Xiaoning.

If one side wants to develop, population is indispensable. For example, Zhou Xiaoning's Outer Two Realms City cannot function due to lack of population.For this reason, Zhou Xiaoning is also very worried. He doesn't know where to get people to come. After all, it is not like in the past. Long-distance migration involves risking one's life. Unless it is an unavoidable situation, generally no one would choose a thief in such a dangerous situation. Leaving a relatively safe station in an environment where the situation is unknown.

Coincidentally, HZ City is now in an extremely distressed environment. The fantasy creatures in the three regions have jointly invaded. With the existing strength of HZ City, it is impossible to resist. The survivors of HZ City are eager to find a more suitable place to live .

At this time, Zhou Xiaoning heard the news that he had established the Liangjie City in Yicheng, which made Zhou Yimin's mind active. He began to contact Wang Jianjun frequently, persuading him to lead everyone in the base to defect to Zhou Xiaoning.

At the beginning, Wang Jianjun refused. After all, as the military commander guarding one side, he holds great power. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the local emperor of HZ City. After tasting the beauty of power, how many people are willing to accept it? lay down.

However, as the situation in HZ City became more and more severe, and Zhou Yimin kept publicizing how good and safe the Two Realms City was in the base, the survivors in the base were emotionally moved, forcing Wang Jianjun to make a decision. choose.

No, Wang Jianjun came to Zhou Yimin early this morning, hoping to contact Zhou Xiaoning through him to discuss specific relocation matters.

"Dad, thank you." Zhou Xiaoning said emotionally. He could imagine that Zhou Yimin must have received a lot of stares and hostility during this month, which contributed to this incident.

"Between father and son, what can I say to thank you?" Zhou Yimin smiled sarcasticly, and he was satisfied that Zhou Xiaoning could understand his good intentions.

"Okay Dad, I know what to do, you can hand over the phone bug to Commander Wang."

Zhou Xiaoning's eyes were full of determination, and it was time for negotiations.

Back then, Zhou Xiaoning took a group of people from the military village to the base to seek the military's protection, but now the military begged Zhou Xiaoning to help them. It's really a turn of events.

"Hello Mr. Zhou, I'm Wang Jianjun."

Wang Jianjun put his attitude very positively, and he didn't overbearing just because he was the commander of the military.

"Commander Wang, long time no see, how are you doing?"

Zhou Xiaoning quickly withdrew his divergent thoughts. He had a very favorable position in this negotiation. If Wang Jianjun and the others wanted to survive, they had to retreat to Yicheng, but the military still had a large number of troops and evolutionary forces. Or, although Zhou Xiaoning is not afraid, once they get into trouble, Zhou Xiaoning will also have a headache.Therefore, this negotiation is mainly to determine the relationship between the two, whether it is cooperation and alliance, or integration and annexation.

"Mr. Zhou, let's save the small talk. How about we get straight to the point?" Wang Jianjun said bluntly. He was by the side when Zhou Yimin and Zhou Xiaoning were on the phone before. Everyone knows what is going on in this conversation, so there is no need to Playing political tricks is going around.

"happy!"

Zhou Xiaoning clapped his palms, he just likes such a straightforward conversation, which saves worry and effort.

"Commander Wang, I can accept you, but it's not free of charge." Zhou Xiaoning paused, collected his thoughts, and then said, "First of all, I need [-]% of the supplies you have accumulated. You also know that so many of you suddenly come. The side pressure is not small."

"can."

Wang Jianjun readily agreed. After all, he didn't have much room for refusal. If Zhou Xiaoning didn't take them in, they would have to wait to die. At that time, what's the use of having more supplies?
"In addition, survivors can directly join Two Realms City and become residents of Two Realms City. But for the soldiers and evolutionary teams you lead, I don't think you will hand them over to me easily, so I will give you two options ...Either, I allow you to station in Yicheng without interfering with each other, or you are hired by me as a mercenary to complete the tasks I entrust to you, and I will be responsible for all your material needs."

On the other end of the phone, Wang Jianjun was silent. Although Zhou Xiaoning gave two choices, the first one seemed to ensure his independence. He was still the commander of the military and held great power, but his subordinates alone could not It is impossible for [-] soldiers and evolutionists to survive for a long time in a crisis-ridden situation and lack of supplies.

As for the second option, it sounds like there is no problem, but all the materials are controlled by Zhou Xiaoning, so what is the difference between them and directly relying on Zhou Xiaoning? The mercenary sounds nice, but in fact it is just a fig leaf for them. .

"Mr. Zhou, you won, I will choose the second."

Wang Jianjun sighed helplessly. At this point, does he have any other choice besides this?
