Apocalyptic Hero System

Chapter 173 Army Base

The boat traveled all morning and soon reached the lake where the military base is located. It is said to be a lake, but it is actually a man-made reservoir called Moon Paozi. However, this reservoir is very large and has many islands in the middle of the lake. It is very suitable for the army to station troops and build camps here. Among them, the command center of the military base is located on an island in the middle of the lake. However, the island in the middle of the lake is populated by officers and their families, while ordinary survivors live in a river bend. It is this river bend that Li Yuanhong is going to.

The terrain of the river bend is somewhat similar to a peninsula. The entrance to the base is very small. There is a wall about fifteen meters high to keep the zombies out. The area of ​​​​the gathering place is not large, only less than twenty square kilometers. But there were nearly 200,000 people living in it. Later, due to hunger, many people went out to look for food and never came back. In addition, the last time zombies attacked, many people went to the city to defend the city, but they were scratched by zombies. These people They were also executed, and in the end there were only more than 100,000 people left in the camp. These people were crowded into an area of ​​less than two square kilometers.

This river bend used to be a wasteland, and now most people live in tents. Li Yuanhong didn’t know how these people survived the winter. When Li Yuanhong looked from a distance on the boat, he saw many people fishing by the river, or Some people were digging weeds around. It was summer, and many wild vegetables could satisfy their hunger. However, even so, most of the survivors on the shore were sallow and thin, with no energy at all.

The ship quickly docked. This was not the first time this cargo ship came. Everyone knew that this cargo ship belonged to Du Sanniang. People in the base called her Fire Lady because when she first came to do business, there was a The gangster couldn't open his eyes and wanted to take advantage of Du Sanniang. As a result, Du Sanniang threw a fireball. Although the gangster was not burned to death, he was burned badly. If Du Sanniang hadn't scrupled about the base's regulations not to kill people, the gangster would have been killed. Probably dead. There is an unwritten rule in the camp. People who activate supernatural powers are big shots and are targets of recruitment by the army. They must not be messed with. Therefore, after this, no one dared to mess with Du Sanniang anymore, and Du Sanniang was wearing hot clothes. , and has a fire attribute power, so the base gave Du Sanniang the nickname Fire Lady.

The ship docked, and Du Sanniang took Li Yuanhong off the bow. At this time, Li Yuanhong also changed out of his armor and wore casual clothes made at the base. An ordinary tank top and jeans were not very attractive, but Li Yuanhong had his own kind of The temperament, if you look closely, can still attract the attention of many girls, especially those female soldiers. Every time they come into contact with Li Yuanhong, they keep discharging Li Yuanhong, and Li Yuanhong has no choice but to ignore it. However, Du Sanniang warned Li Yuanhong many times: You must be worthy of my white girl. You are not allowed to hook up with others outside, and you are not allowed to flirt with those little cowards!

Every time Du Sanniang lectured Li Yuanhong, he felt powerless, but he couldn't refute, so he had to listen with a dark face.

As soon as the boat docked, a group of people rushed over. These people's clothes were shabby, but they were passable. They were not very strong, but they were much stronger than those who could even walk. As soon as these people gathered around, one of them led the way. He stood up and shouted to Du Sanniang: Boss Du, are you still using manual handling today?

Du Sanniang said with a professional smile on her face: Use it, and there are more things this time!

The person in the lead immediately shouted excitedly to the people behind him: Everyone, please line up quickly and wait a moment to move the things in order, otherwise if you break the things, today's work will be in vain!

As this man's words fell to the ground, the people who had gathered around him all lined up calmly, waiting to be assigned work.

After a while, the female soldier in charge of cargo management stepped off the ship and arranged for these people to start moving the supplies on the ship.

Li Yuanhong looked at all this and asked: Did these people work here before?

No way. If I hadn't started this trade, these people wouldn't be starving anywhere. The leader used to be a senior manager of a trading company. He had had the opportunity to meet several times in the provincial capital. He was a good person. There are not many people who can still keep their responsibilities in the business district. Later, I met him here. I happened to need help in transporting supplies, so I asked him to help. Unexpectedly, this guy actually won over some people. He is responsible for my transportation, so he has a lot of vision.

Before you came to the army base, what jobs did the people here do? Didn't anyone organize their work?

There used to be one, that's the wall there. Du Sanniang pointed to the fifteen-meter-high wall and said, The military sent people to supervise the construction of this wall, and almost all the survivors in the camp were used. It was built in less than a month. There were no transportation machines or cement mixers at the time of this wall. It was all done manually by pushing carts one by one and rolling bricks one by one. However, the army provided the workers with Food, so it was quite reasonable. After the wall was built, there was basically no life. As you can see, the area here is so big, and the survivors almost filled it up, and there was no room to build farmland or factories, so , there is not much work. But I heard that there are many handicraft workshops in this camp, which can produce some good things. Many of the weapons that the survivors went out to take were produced by these workshops. Du Sanniang spread knowledge to Li Yuanhong.

The two of them walked forward, and after walking through a crowded tent area, they came to a place with regular houses. These houses were all built later, and they were all six-story tube buildings. There were people in front of each building. Guard, obviously the people living in these buildings are not ordinary people.

Li Yuanhong asked: Who live in these buildings?

These people, before the apocalypse, were some of the business tycoons of this province. After the apocalypse, these people came to the camp with a lot of supplies, negotiated with the army, and exchanged part of their supplies for this land. The houses here are all theirs. I built it myself. No one knows what’s inside, but one thing is that there must be production equipment here. If there are jobs in the base, you can only find these guys. However, the power in the military camp is limited, and these people have to produce. Things cannot be mass-produced. After all, fuel has to be exchanged at the Daqing base, and the price there is very high.

Then what do they produce? Li Yuanhong is more concerned about this. After all, many people here will be his competitors in the future. Although Li Yuanhong is not afraid, he must have systematic help. Many materials are produced at very low cost, but he is afraid that some people will secretly They were doing bad things, so Li Yuanhong paid special attention to these people.

They produce a variety of things. For example, the house on the far south and left is where Fatty Hu lives. He used to be in the medicinal material business. I didn't expect that he didn't know where to get a set of pharmaceutical equipment. He mainly Produce some commonly used drugs, such as antibiotics and trauma drugs. Although the effect is not as good as before the apocalypse, at least people can survive. And his drugs are almost unaffordable to ordinary people. Only the military and various forces can purchase them. Opposite him is Jiang Siyan. This man wears glasses and is polite, but very smart. He produces all kinds of cans, such as canned fruits, canned fish, etc.

At this point, Li Yuanhong interrupted: He can produce cans? So where do his raw materials come from?

Oh, he is very obsessed with his raw materials. Some people say that he knows the location of a fruit grove and that all his fruits come from that fruit grove, but no one has discovered how he transported the fruits from the orchard. Moreover, the army once sent People have secretly investigated him, but they haven't found the location of the orchard. As for the fish, this is a large reservoir in itself. There are not many fish. If it weren't for the fish monster in the river, the people here don't have to worry about starving. Du San Mother sighed.

It seems that the big guys here are not simple!

That is, these people have more or less connections with the military, and most of them produce for the military, and the common people hardly use their products. What the common people can afford are produced in workshops. Things, such as the knife on the back of that person over there, were made in a handicraft workshop. Du Sanniang pointed at a strong man walking in front of him. This strong man was more than 1.8 meters tall, with a strong back and a strong beard. Stubble was wearing a faded linen sweatshirt, sweatpants, and sneakers. Although his clothes were a little damaged, looking at his physique, it was obvious that he had never been hungry. Behind the man's back was a big knife. The special thing about this big knife was that the back of the knife was inlaid with five copper rings. The big knife was also thicker than ordinary big knives. It was obvious that this person was quite powerful, and this knife was obviously not a low-grade product. When Li Yuanhong saw the knife, he aroused his curiosity.
