Rebirth in the apocalypse: You can mess it up, I will open the book directly
Chapter 453 Population, Resources
"No, we are here to find..." Chu Xuanxuan's face wrinkled, and he was about to say something, but was stopped by Qin Miao.
"Let's take a look first and then talk," Qin Miao said.
Chu Xuanxuan felt that with his Miaomiao strength, he was able to walk sideways in this base. She didn't understand why she chose to waste time with these people here, but seeing that Qin Miao had already made a decision, she could only groan and say nothing more.
Qin Miao rubbed Chu Xuanxuan's head, then nodded slightly towards the scarred man and smiled politely: "Brother, I understand what you mean, thank you."
She stretched out her palm and made a 'please' gesture, "We can just follow you. Brother, just go ahead and do your work. There is no need to worry about us."
"Who said I have to take care of you?" The scarred man stared, his face turned red, "Don't think too much, I... of course we have to be busy with our own business! You guys, May you be blessed.”
Hefting the ax on his body, the scarred man gave one final warning: "Remember, if anyone asks, don't say you want to join this base, do you hear me?"
After seeing Qin Miao nodding in response, the scarred man looked left and right, turned around and walked to the front of the team. The short-haired woman followed closely behind, and the short-haired man who always stood behind her picked up the shovel she had just thrown on the ground and followed her in two trots.
After the group had walked a few steps away, they saw that there was already chaos and shouting in front of them.
[What are you doing? Don't touch me! I'm here to join the base! ]
[Uncle, let’s talk nicely, be polite, and don’t make a move! ]
[ah! How do you hit someone? I want to see the base director here! ]
[Li Jiang! You should say something! Tell them you brought me! Why are not you talking? ]
At the same time, noisy sounds could be heard from all over the base, blending together into a blur that was quickly covered up by other noisy sounds.
Zhang Huofeng was thoughtful, and after a moment he seemed to have figured out something, and whispered a few words to Chen Dong'er beside him.
Chen Dong'er also responded in a low voice, and then the two reached a consensus. Zhang Huofeng took a few steps forward, leaned into Qin Miao's ear and said, "It looks like human trafficking."
Now that the zombie outbreak has been going on for more than half a year, each large base needs manpower to develop production and guard the base after the situation stabilizes, so they take turns going out to rescue survivors.
Nowadays, people have become less and less hopeful about the country rescuing or eradicating zombies. Survivors who are somewhat capable have begun to take the initiative to drive to search for nearby bases after running out of ammunition and food at home.
There are fewer and fewer scattered survivors, and the 'population' has gradually become a 'resource'.
On the surface, there are tacit rules between nearby bases: if multiple bases encounter the same group of survivors at the same time, the survivors will choose which base to join.
But behind the scenes, it is common for recruiters to exaggerate the benefits of the base to lure survivors.
What's more, human trafficking is becoming more and more common.
Zhang Huofeng was disgusted with this kind of transaction, and couldn't help but ask: "Boss, will our alliance still accept a base like this that is just a mess?"
Qin Miao opened her mouth, but made no sound.
With the blessing of the level 8 "Hear the Wind" ability, she could hear the messy conversations in the distance more clearly.
After splicing together the fragmentary words and adding some speculations, the whole logic was quickly smoothed out.
In this "Black Skull Base", there are several groups of people who go out specifically to defraud survivors. It is probably like using a 'high-paying career' as a guise to deceive college students into entering MLM dens.
Survivors who are tricked will be arranged to enter the base on the same day. When the time comes and the market opens, these deceived people will be tied up and sold like animals.
[What happened if I lied to you? You don’t think about it yourself. You are an ordinary person who doesn’t even have any superpowers. If I ask you to be the most profitable warehouse manager in the base, do you really expect it? "
"You believe this if I don't do the good work myself and arrange it for you? You are stupid and greedy. Who can blame you?"
[Stop yelling, no one can save you even if you yell to the sky. ]
[I advise you to save your energy and think about what abilities and values you have that would make people willing to pay for you. Otherwise, with your qualifications, you are not qualified to be a meat animal. ]
[Ha, it’s hard to say whether you can survive tomorrow, so what about the future? Who are you trying to scare? ]
The words of the leader of the 'human trafficker' fell into his ears very clearly. The more Qin Miao listened, the more absurd he felt.
In the apocalypse, things that could only be hidden in ditches and gutters and cannot be seen in the light are taken out and put on the table in a grand manner, and an 'industrial chain' can be gradually formed. Those responsible for supplying goods, those responsible for handling goods, and those responsible for distribution, everything is covered.
I just don't know whether people who are deceived like this are eventually 'sold' to various bases to work as coolies, or...
What do people mean by 'meat animals'?
Qin Miao's thoughts gradually diverged into the distance. Thinking of some possibility, her face gradually turned ugly, but her eyes crossed the distance and landed on the spitting leader of the 'human trafficker'.
He was talking with great joy, and his triumphant expression was particularly dazzling no matter how you looked at it.
How to deal with such a dirty base?
Should we reorganize ourselves, kill a group of extremely evil people, and replace them with new managers and bring them back into the alliance? Or should we do the same as we did with the 'Refugee Base', destroy the entire "Black Skull Base" and disperse the personnel into other subordinate bases? ?
After thinking about this, Qin Miao's eyes turned to the scar-faced man in front of him again, and the short-haired woman beside him, her teeth bared and her face deliberately concave with a fierce look.
Their goodwill is clearly visible, which shows that this base is not all filled with extremely evil people, and perhaps it can be saved a little bit.
Having made up her mind, Qin Miao took a step forward, followed the scarred man's team, and continued walking forward.
