Doom Smuggler

So the amount of tax that Squirrel Town needs to bear, in the eyes of the bullet casing company, naturally falls on the head of the Shuguang base.

The bullet casing company doesn't care who controls Squirrel Town, they only care about the taxes that should be there, and they must not be affected!

"How much is the tax amount?"

After figuring out the specific identities of these two people and the purpose of their visit, Chen Yang asked.

"The tax mark is very rough. Based on the population of Squirrel Town of 1, it is necessary to pay enough food for 2000 people on a monthly basis."

Li Lu answered.

"Food enough to feed 2000 people? Squirrel Town is now fully autonomous, and I don't collect taxes from Squirrel Town. Under such circumstances, I still have to pay enough food to feed 2000 people? Wouldn't it be a loss?"

Chen Yang said in astonishment.

"Whether you collect taxes from Squirrel Town or not has nothing to do with our Bullet Casing Company. Since Squirrel Town is now your Shuguang base's final say, then the tax of Squirrel Town will naturally be borne by you! Unless your Shuguang base If you voluntarily give up the jurisdiction over Squirrel Town and let Squirrel Town be directly included in the management system of our Bullet Case Company, then your Shuguang Base only needs to bear your own tax quota."

The short man among the two said proudly.

Although this statement was reasonable, Chen Yang still felt very uncomfortable.

Because the so-called taxation, to put it bluntly, is just a protection fee...

That is, through more powerful forces, coercion and blackmail against weaker forces.

"Anyway, don't waste time, just consolidate the taxes you should pay this month, and the two of us will take them back! Again, we are not here to discuss with you, but to notify you!"

The short man continued in a cold voice.

Chen Yang raised his eyebrows, tilted his head and said to Li Lu, "Go, call Dr. He, I have something to ask him."

"okay."

Li Lu didn't know what Chen Yang wanted to do, but she agreed and turned to He Jianian's laboratory.

"Don't be impatient, you two. Not long after we took Squirrel Town, we temporarily let Squirrel Town self-government. There was no food tax collection, so I am afraid that the base will not be able to raise so much food for a while. Give me some time, both of you, and let me think of a way."

Chen Yang looked at the tall and short two, and said with a smile.

The two looked at each other, knowing that Chen Yang was telling the truth.

Thinking that before leaving, I was told to come here this time mainly to confirm the attitude of this new force. As long as the attitude of the new force is good, then maintain the status quo and try not to cause extra problems and troubles, so the two of them just nodded. He did not continue to show aggressive aura.

Soon, He Jianian and Li Lu came together.

The tall and short two were a little surprised after seeing He Jia.

Because they recognized who He Jianian was, and they were very surprised at the same time. They didn't understand why they saw He Jianian in the Shuguang base.

Isn't that the distribution staff that the Doctors Association stationed at their bullet casing company? !

Chapter 154

With the huge size of the Doctor's Association and its super high status in the wasteland, any distributor of the Doctor's Association can be called a well-deserved big shot in the place where it is stationed.

No matter what the purpose is, those forces stationed in the distributors of the Doctors Association will try their best to build a good relationship with the distributors.

If through these distributors, you can obtain the precious medicines that the Doctors Association sells in limited quantities, or even the medicines that the Doctors Association basically does not sell, then you will make a lot of money.

Unless it is a top force that can sit on an equal footing with the Doctors Association, it will dismiss the distributors of the Doctors Association.

Of course, with such a top power, it is impossible for the Doctors Association to arrange distribution personnel to station there.

Therefore, He Jianian has a very high status in the settlement of the bullet casing company, and he can communicate with the members of the six-member council on an equal footing.

Naturally, all the regular employees of the bullet casing company also knew He Jianian.

It's just that He Jianian doesn't know them.

"Doctor He, is there any way to make people's death look like they were killed by a different species?"

Seeing He Jianian approaching, Chen Yang asked with a smile.

"Ok?"

He Jianian was stunned for a moment, but then he understood what Chen Yang meant.

Because Li Lu had just told him the general situation, he now knows exactly what happened to the Shuguang base.

Rubbing his chin and pondering for a moment, He Jianian said, "Of course there are methods, but the area around here is very barren and there are no powerful alien species, so... it's best to create powerful alien species that accidentally flow here. Illusion."

"Is this kind of illusion troublesome to create?"

Chen Yang continued to ask.

"Trouble is not troublesome. I know the habits of many powerful alien species. It is very easy to create similar injury effects by mixing some potions. But the problem is that even if such an illusion is created, it does not have much reality. The key is whether the bullet casing company is willing to believe it. According to my understanding of them, even if they really died of a different species, they will never believe it, let alone an illusion created?"

He Jianian spread his hands, shrugged and said.

"It doesn't matter, as long as there is an excuse that can be used as a buffer, since the other party will arrange two people to come over to express their attitude, it means that the other party does not actually want a real conflict. This is just the way to test Under the opponent's bottom line."

Chen Yang said indifferently.

"Why do I feel that you want to drag me into the water? If the people from the Bullet Case Company are really enraged and raise their troops, you will definitely not let me be alone. After all... In this level of conflict, a A ninth-level enhanced person is enough to overturn the situation of the battle."

He Jianian rubbed his temples and said.

"Hey, Doctor He, don't think people are so complicated. But the situation you said is not unacceptable. Since we are partners, we must share weal and woe, and use a real conflict to deepen Is there anything wrong with our relationship?"

Chen Yang said with a smile.

He Jianian shook his head helplessly, and said, "If it was the beginning of the cooperation, I would definitely feel bad about it. But now...you have proved that you can provide me with a sufficient amount of medicinal materials, It makes me not willing to terminate the cooperation at all.”

"That's the best. Hello everyone is really good. So... How about leaving this matter to Dr. He?"

Chen Yang asked tentatively.

"Okay, I didn't show any performance when facing the Gray Rat Party before, and you were already dissatisfied. Although that was my observation and test of you, it was a bit unreasonable after all. As partners, we are each other's The ally we should rely on and trust the most, and we should do what we can for you.”

He Jianian nodded in agreement.

The dialogue between the two did not shy away from the commissioner sent by the bullet casing company at all.

As a result, the two commissioners, one tall and one short, felt that something was wrong the more they heard it.

Seeing that He Jianian turned and walked towards them, both of them had panicked expressions on their faces.

Instinctively, I felt uneasy.

The short commissioner stammered and said, "He... Dr. He, we don't know... we don't know about this Shuguang base, and it has something to do with you. If we know, maybe... maybe the amount of tax can be reduced or exempted? How about... Why don't we go back...how about reporting the situation here to the higher ups?"

"No, I probably know what you've been up to recently. The population of your settlements has been growing continuously, and the current settlement area can no longer meet the needs of all survivors. So according to my advice to you I understand that you must start preparing to gather forces to reclaim other ruined areas of the city in order to clear out more safe areas to accommodate the increasing number of survivors."

He Jianian shook his head, and continued: "So for you, Shuguang Base is not the most urgent issue to deal with right now. Even if you stay here, as long as there is a plausible reason, then there is a great possibility. You guys won't attack Shuguang Base immediately, am I right?"

When He Jianian directly told the company's current situation exactly, the two commissioners couldn't help but panicked even more.

They're not stupid, so they can tell that He Jianian and the Shuguang base are trying to kill them!

"He... Dr. He... We are just following orders, it has nothing to do with us... Can you let us... let us go back? We promise... no... not to report back the situation here... ..."

The short commissioner immediately lost his domineering arrogance just now, and begged with a pale face.

"I'm afraid it won't work. My boss looks very kind, but the way he does things is actually a bit extreme. He hopes that I can express my sincerity in cooperation through this way. And I also think that through this way, It can bring me and my boss closer, so I can only apologize."

"After all, I have been living in the settlement of the bullet casing company before. If I can't do everything right, I can't convince my boss that there is really no close relationship between me and the bullet casing company. I believe you will also I can understand my difficulties. For the sake of happy cooperation between me and my boss, please go to hell, sorry."

He Jianian bowed to the two commissioners, and in the next second, he shot suddenly and directly cut off the necks of the two commissioners!

Chapter 155 The Powerful Alien Species

Chen Yang knew that He Jianian said these words to himself.

However, he did have similar concerns, so he readily accepted He Jianian's explanation.

No way, before he came to the wasteland world, He Jianian had been stationed in that medium-sized settlement.

Although it was said that he was demoted and assigned by the Doctors Association, even with his post-demotion status, he was still the top figure in that medium-sized settlement.

It is difficult to guarantee that there is no unclear relationship with the ruling force of that medium-sized settlement, the so-called bullet casing company.

If He Jianian didn't express his attitude, Chen Yang would naturally suspect that He Jianian also had his own interests in the bullet casing company.

If this is the case, there is no way to guarantee which side He Jianian will stand after the conflict between Suguang Base and Bullet Case Company.

Since He Jianian can choose to cooperate with Shuguang Base, who knows if there was a cooperative relationship between He Jianian and the bullet casing company before the emergence of Shuguang Base?

To continue his research, which has been refuted by the medical association, he will need a lot of resources.

It is obviously impossible to obtain this kind of resources by relying solely on his own strength.

In terms of emotion and reason, the relationship between He Jianian and the bullet casing company will not be too simple.

But now that He Jianian has expressed his opinion in public, and personally killed two commissioners of the bullet case company, this is considered a vote!

Even if He Jianian really had a close relationship with the Bullet Case Company, the behavior in front of him also showed that He Jianian had made a choice.

Between the Bullet Case Company and the Shuguang Base, He Jianian chose the latter without hesitation!

So for Chen Yang, there is no need to care about the relationship between He Jianian and the bullet casing company.

"What kind of alien injury are you going to pretend to be?"

Watching He Jianian pick up the two corpses and walk towards the laboratory, Chen Yang followed He Jianian and asked.

"This is the area near Hangcheng before the catastrophe broke out. The bullet casing company not far away, their settlement is actually the edge of the urban area of ​​Hangzhou. Because before the cataclysm, the surrounding area was basically covered by steel bars. The concrete buildings are filled to form an urban cluster, which is one of the largest urban clusters in the entire world, so after the catastrophe broke out, although there were a lot of zombies here, there were not many alien species."

He Jianian looked back at Chen Yang, and then said, "Except for the squirrels that can be seen everywhere, the most numerous alien species in this area should be scavenger dogs. Unlike zombie dogs, scavenger dogs usually consist of a dozen or so For a group. In each group, the largest scavenger dog is the leader, and I plan to disguise the bodies of these two people as if they were killed by the leader of the scavenger dog."

Hearing that He Jianian mentioned the alien species, Chen Yang immediately became interested.

He is actually full of curiosity and thirst for knowledge about many things in the wasteland world.

Because I have never seen it.

But Chen Yang's interest in zombies is really limited.

In fact, the world he lives in, various zombie games and zombie movies, have shown this kind of thing without any secrets at all.

Although the zombies in his world are all fabricated things, the various enjoyment of zombies in it basically covers all possible directions.

Chen Yang doesn't think that real zombies living in the wasteland world can escape from that circle.

However, different species are different!

"What would it be like to be killed by the leader of a scavenger dog?"

Chen Yang asked.

"The fangs of scavenging dogs store strong venom, which is more corrosive than sulfuric acid. Therefore, if it is bitten to death by scavenging dogs, the corpse will be corroded beyond recognition in a short period of time. Normal scavenging The dog is about the size of a cheetah before the catastrophe broke out, and the leader of the scavenging dog is generally about the same size as the tiger before the catastrophe broke out, so just pay attention to the size of the sores on the corpse that were eaten."

He Jianian explained in detail.

"So scary? Then... roughly what level of enhanced human can a scavenger dog be? Er... Are they equivalent to an enhanced human? Shouldn't they reach the level of an evolved human?"

Chen Yang continued to ask curiously.

"Ordinary scavenger dogs are probably about the same as a third-level enhanced person, and the fighting power of the leader of the scavenger dog is basically comparable to that of a fourth-level enhanced person. The most powerful scavenger dog should be able to fight against a fifth-level enhanced person. But this The analogy of this kind of strength is meaningless, because human beings will never deal with alien species with bare hands. As long as they have powerful weapons, even ordinary humans can kill these less powerful alien species."

He Jianian said.

"Is there any truly powerful alien species? For example, alien species that can be compared with evolutionary?"

Chen Yang continued to ask.

Although he himself still doesn't know exactly what kind of existence an evolutionary is, this does not prevent him from knowing that an evolutionary is very powerful.

"Of course there are, but alien species with strong individual strength often do not have the attribute of living in groups. Those alien species that can stand shoulder to shoulder with evolutionaries are basically lone rangers. It is not easy to meet them..."

He Jianian replied.

"So that's the case, let you say this... I really want to have a chance to see and see..."

Chen Yang murmured.

"I advise you to get rid of this idea. At least before you become an evolutionary, what you should do is to pray that you don't encounter this kind of lone alien. Because for small and medium-sized settlements, this level of alien, Once it appears, it means a devastating disaster."

In the time He Jianian spoke, he had already carried two corpses to his lab.

Then he said: "A year ago, in the suburbs of Sucheng not far from Hangzhou, there was a medium-sized settlement that was very strong and was booming. The number of survivors gathered in that medium-sized settlement has exceeded [-]. The head of the faction in that medium-sized settlement is a ninth-level enhanced person."
