2012 Doomsday Survival Record
Chapter 109
The weather in City A is getting colder day by day. The average temperature for several days in a row is below minus 35 degrees Celsius. According to meteorological experts, the lowest temperature this year is likely to reach minus 50 degrees Celsius, making it the coldest year ever.Both sides of the street are covered with snow, and occasionally passers-by with bulging packages can be seen hurrying past on the street, with blank expressions on their faces.The looters hiding in the alleyway were ready to move, and when they saw the patrol team, they couldn't help spitting and cursed bad luck.
No matter how fierce the battles among the major military regions were, they all reached a consensus on how to deal with City A——City A should not be left in chaos—at least on the surface.After all, obedient people are much easier to manage than violent people, aren't they?There was already a patrol team, and the bigwigs of the military region picked something out of their teeth, and continued to store up this security force.
Because of the existence of these patrols, after the government cut off the relief for ordinary survivors, City A, which was once in chaos, quickly restored 'order'.This 'order' based on violence and bloodshed seems to be calm, but it is actually on the verge of breaking out.
In order to resist the severe cold weather, some families with good relations will get together, pool money to buy some coal, take out the quilts and clothes of each family, and build a big shop around the stove, and use the firelight and each other's body temperature Use the most affordable way to dispel the cold.
At present, the largest coal reserves in city A are the Black Claw Mercenary Group and the J Military Region, and they are also the two with the cheapest prices.Lu Qian had foreseen the severe cold early in the morning, so he sent his caravan to SX to exchange a lot of coal, and through Li Jingwu's mouth, he reminded Li Gan that the weather might change this year.Li Gan was skeptical, and sent people to SX to bring back a lot of coal.
Originally, Lu Qian wanted to take the opportunity to make a fortune, but after seeing a large number of frostbitten and frostbite victims in the city, after careful consideration, he finally set the price of coal at a bottom line that he himself could not accept.
After telling Wu Liang the quotation, Wu Liang opened his mouth wide in disbelief.Not to mention him, even Lu Qian himself couldn't believe it. In a flash of his head, he sold the coal that was originally planned to be sold at six to ten times the purchase price, and finally sold it at double the purchase price.
At such a price, excluding the cost price, the round-trip gas money, and the mercenaries' remuneration, the profit is so meager that it can almost be ignored.
In Wu Liang's words, when the head of the group unexpectedly shows mercy, our head is really a good person, and he is very good at it, why didn't he notice it before?
From the perspective of conspiracy theory, Wu Liang pondered this matter hundreds of times from the inside to the outside, but he couldn't figure out what kind of medicine was sold in Lu Qian's gourd.It's not that he slandered the character of his head, but he has been with his head for more than half a year, and he really didn't see that his head is such a good person!
It is obvious that it is more suitable for the head of his family not to get up early, so why is he suddenly merciful?No matter how you look at it, it looks weird!Wu Liang was stunned and sold half of the coal at a low price, but he couldn't figure out Lu Qian's thoughts.Instead, Zhu Bin, who occasionally overheard him talking to Zhu Yun, defended Lu Qian, yelling that the head brother is a good person in the first place.
Wu Liang looked at his brother-in-law-to-be, and sighed silently in his heart, can we stop discrediting the word 'good man'?Brother-in-law, you have been sold a long time ago, can we stop counting the money so cheerfully?However, he also slandered in his heart at these words. If the wife spoke, if the brother-in-law didn't nod, then he wouldn't even think about marrying her.
What Lu Qian did was beyond everyone's expectations. Even his ally, Commander Li, didn't understand where he was singing, and just followed him and sold the coal in his hand at a low price.
However, in addition to the fact that there are more people recruiting here than in other military regions, the voice in City A is a little higher than others, and he is regarded as a thorn in the flesh by several consortium warlords who have goods in their hands. He put the coal in his hand They were sold out, and they didn't know exactly what Lu Qian's move meant.
In the end, he couldn't bear it any longer, and found a rare opportunity to ask Lu Qian's intentions directly.
Lu Qianqiong teased Miaozai boredly, looked at him indifferently and said, "What kind of meaning do you need to do good deeds? Commander Li, you think too much."
Think too much, think too much, think too much...
Under the expression of his son holding back his laughter as if he was constipated, Li Gan was choked for a long time without uttering a word.
After he took a sip of tea, he finally calmed down, and asked another question about this trip: "I heard that your mercenary group established a base at the research institute in City T, and the city wall was built stronger than our city A. , have been completed half a year ago and can be moved in, right?"
Lu Qian didn't want to hide it from him, so he admitted generously: "Well, there is such a thing, did you listen to what Xun Wu said?"
Li Gan looked at his son with hatred for being weak: "If he would tell me, I wouldn't have learned about it from Commander Sun of the C Military Region two days ago!"
Lu Qian's gaze sank. Li Gan was clearly telling him that there was an eyeliner from C Military Region in T City.Lu Qian did not intentionally keep the matter of building the base a secret, but there were not many people who knew about it. In City A, only a few captains and people who were close to Lu Qian knew about it, and all the other insiders went. On the T city side, the news came back two days ago, and they even know the progress of the base project so clearly, the eyeliner should be on the T city side.
The heavy snow interfered with the communication signal. If the eyeliner wants to send back the news, he must contact outsiders. Let Xiao Qi remind Xiao Xun later. It should not be difficult to find this person.
The appearance of eyeliner in the mercenary group is inevitable. When he didn't find out, he could turn a blind eye and close his eyes. Now that he found out, there was no reason to let him go easily.
"Hehe, I like principled people like Jingwu and Commander Li." Lu Qian flattered.
Li Qian asked with a smile: "The Black Claw Mercenary Group is in full swing in City A, why did Captain Lu suddenly want to build a base outside?"
Lu Qian smiled and said, "Commander Li really knows what to ask."
Li Gan pondered for a while and said, "Could it be that you think the water in City A is too deep?"
"There is indeed a reason for this. In the past, when Mr. Xie was still around, he could at least frighten the various military regions. Now that Mr. Xie is gone, the major military regions are doing their own thing. I am afraid that my little mercenary group will not be able to stand up to them. All sides are fighting." The warlords from all sides occupy City A, and it will become inevitable for them to feed their soldiers and pay heavy taxes.In addition, with so many supernatural beings in his hands, they will definitely become the targets of all forces.Loyalty and interests have been difficult to balance since ancient times.
If there is no plan to build an external base, Lu Qian will come up with countermeasures to deal with these things. Now that he has this idea and put it into action, he can naturally save a lot of effort.
"Captain Lu is really underestimating himself. Not to mention the strength of the Black Claw Mercenary Group, no one can touch you. Even if someone who doesn't have a good eye wants to grab your attention, you have to ask me if I agree?" In his heart, Li Gan didn't want to lose Lu Qian, his ally.
"Commander Li's intentions, I have always understood." Lu Qian also did not want to lose such an alliance as Li Gan: "Although I have established a base in T City, it does not mean that I will disband the forces in A City. I just don't know, Commander Li once promised me to give me a green passage, does it still count now?"
This little fox!
Li Gan said with a smile: "Forget it, of course."
"Then if I want to ask Commander Li to send me some military experts?"
"A military expert?" Li Qian frowned and said, "Could it be that you still plan to set up a military factory in T City?"
"There is such a plan. T City is not a land of fish and rice. Our mercenary group has moved there, so we must have some skills to gain a foothold, right?" Lu Qian looked at him with a smile: "I know this request is a bit excessive, but Commander Li can think about it carefully. , give me the answer after you think about it, whether you agree or not with this matter, it will not affect our friendship."
"Okay, I'll think about it carefully!" Li Gan agreed with a smile.
One of the most important reasons why the leaders of various military regions can sit on one side is that they hold military manufacturing resources in their hands.Survivor bases all over the country are now in urgent need of hot weapons, and more than seven floors of these hot weapons are produced in City A. Although there are many battles among the various military divisions, they are very united in terms of pricing.
Qixin, to put it bluntly, is monopoly, and monopoly means high profits.
Why did Lu Qian believe that he wanted to give him such a big cake?
"Xing Wu, what do you think about this matter?" There have been too many internal and external events recently, and the sudden death of Mr. Xie caught Li Gan by surprise.He was able to take the position of the commander of the J military region, no doubt thanks to the help of the Xie family. Without Mr. Xie, Colonel Xie, who is too upright and lacking in strategy, cannot support the Xie family.Right now, before his position as commander was warmed up, Mr. Xie passed away, and there were countless people staring at him inside and out.
Among them, the people of the Zhu faction secretly funded by Zhu Lingnan and his son are the most closely watched.The Zhu family's power has collapsed, but Zhu Lingnan, as Zhu Lingdong's younger brother and confidant, has hidden a lot of things in his hands.On the surface, the Zhu family left the J Military Region disheartened. In fact, they used their hidden resources to secretly win over the old troops in the army.
Originally, Zhu's father and son could use this batch of supplies to be a wealthy idler, but Zhu Jiabao suddenly stopped raising when he was messing with a group of men.He didn't feel ashamed, so he invited all the experts that City A could invite to show him. The experts came to the conclusion that he was drugged, and unless there was a miracle, there was no hope of recovery in this life.
That's not counting, but Zhu Jiabao's wife gave birth here, and the baby was stillborn.He asked someone to investigate the matter, and the attending doctor at the time said that the fetus died of natural causes, and had already died half a month ago.How can the Zhu family accept this unprecedented fact?
I don't know who gave the father and son the will-o'-the-wisp, making them believe that Li Gan did it.
Li Gan's scapegoat is beyond debate, and Zhu's father and son try their best to block him all day long.Once Mr. Xie passed away, they intensified their efforts. They not only contacted the old Zhu family frequently, but also colluded with the C military region and the G military region. They wished that he would immediately follow in the footsteps of Mr. Xie and go directly to the sky to meet the great revolutionary leader.
Mr. Xie passed away suddenly. Colonel Xie was so busy with internal and external troubles, how could he have time to come and take care of his affairs?
At such a delicate juncture, Li Gan was reluctant to give up Lu Qian as an ally no matter what.Perhaps, Lu Xun and Xue Chen, who made Zhu Jiabao suddenly stop, did not expect such a predicament for Li Gan.
The Black Claw Mercenary Corps may not be able to compare with any other military region, but just relying on the names of Lu Qian and Xue Chen as the number one supernatural masters, their influence and cohesion among supernatural beings, and Lu Qian's actions alone He decided that Lu Qian was definitely very human.He was able to create a mercenary group that was recognized as the number one by himself, so would he create another survivor base that was recognized as the number one?
This kind of idea is very whimsical, but Li Qian has a voice in his heart telling him again and again, what if it is true?
However, handing over military experts and dividing a piece of cake to Lu Qian is not only a matter of interests, but also threats and risks from various military regions.
Since Li Jingwu has not been on a mission recently, he has been staying at home, so he is naturally aware of the predicament his father is facing.However, "Dad, haven't you already agreed to the request of the head of the regiment? Why do you still ask me? If you want me to say, it is not enough to send only a few military experts. Some of them also sent a few to our mercenary group."
Li Gan pointed at him angrily, and cursed: "You bastard, it's said that the girl turned her elbows out, I really gave birth to your son in vain!"
Li Jingwu rubbed his nose and said innocently: "Dad, you already gave your son to Lu Qian as a favor, would you mind sending a few more experts to strengthen the 'love is stronger than gold' friendship between you?" Dad didn't reject Lu Qian on the spot, so he knew that he would agree in all likelihood.
"Old Li, look, I told you not to be a mercenary for that troublemaker, but you two just don't listen to me. Listen, you have only been there for a few days. What are you talking about! No big deal! Little one." Wang Jingru seemed to blame, but actually defended her shortcomings.
How could Li Qian fail to see his wife's tricks?He laughed and scolded, "Just protect your son!"
Wang Jingru glanced at her handsome son and held her head up proudly: "This is necessary!"
A few days later, Li Gan sent people to Lu Qian, ten military experts specializing in guns, ten aerospace experts, twenty researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and three military production lines.
The sincerity was enough to surprise even Lu Qian.But when he thought about Li Qian's current situation, he was relieved.
Li Qian was giving people and goods, so he took two big fat pigs back from Lu Qian, and the business lost all his money.
The current situation in City A is changing rapidly. Lu Qian didn't plan to leave for a while, so he sent his personal guards to send these experts, their relatives and crews to City T.
The road was blocked by freezing weather and heavy snow. Even without the zombies chasing after him, the journey was quite difficult.
It took more than half a month for the guards to send people there and then return.
The severe cold weather not only pushed human beings into a desperate situation, but also many mutant beasts were cornered, frequently braving the severe cold to attack human beings.Zhu Bin went out this time and 'picked up' many mutant beasts, the most powerful of which was a pair of Haidongqing.
This pair of mutated Haidongqing stands more than one meter tall, and its wings are five meters long. One of the males also has an extremely rare wind ability. Not only can it throw wind blades at least twice as fast as ordinary airplanes .
These two sea dongqings originally lived in the deep mountains and old forests in the northeast. The temperature of which one was too low this year. Many animals froze to death in the forest, and those who survived found holes to hide. It was difficult for them to hunt, and they were frozen I couldn't take it anymore, so I left the lair.Unexpectedly, the first time he went south, when he was about to hunt, he encountered the personal guards of the Black Claw Mercenary Group.Relying on his unique affinity, Zhu Bin promised a long list of things, and finally persuaded the two eagles to reluctantly agree to stay with him in the mercenary group.
Lu Qian repeated his old trick, poured down a few bottles of the fountain of life, and Adong, Xiaoqing, and the other mutant beasts all stayed obediently.
Zhu Bin was worried that he would come and get scolded for 'picking up' so many 'cute' little animals, but he didn't expect that Lu Qian not only didn't scold him, but also rewarded him with a precious speeder crystal core, which weighed twenty catties Fat pork, and promised that the mercenary group will be responsible for the daily expenses of these animals, so he only needs to spend more time communicating with these animals.
In Zhu Bin's view, communicating with these animals is simply fun, and the joy is almost bubbling.
Facing her innocent younger brother, Zhu Yun had no choice but to have a good talk with Lu Qian.
It was rare for Lu Qian to be a gentleman and poured Zhu Yun a glass of freshly squeezed juice, handed it to Zhu Yun, walked to sit opposite her.
"You came to me specifically because of Zhu Bin's affairs?"
Zhu Yun looked at Lu Qian's face that became more and more beautiful and stronger under pressure, and took a deep breath: "Lu Qian, I still say the same thing, don't hurt my brother."
Lu Qian looked at her indifferently: "Do you think I did something to hurt him?"
Zhu Yun was dumbfounded, and decided to start with Lu Qian on the way from Beijing. Lu Qian didn't say that he took good care of their siblings, but Zhu Bin's 'disease' was indeed cured by him. His strength is also indispensable.However, at the same time, she and Binbin have also devoted their loyalty to the mercenary group.
but……
"I know your worries, but you just don't want to overexpose Zhu Bin's ability." Lu Qian looked at Zhu Yun's uncertain face, and continued: "I've always been curious, why did the two animal trainers in the military compete with Zhu Bin? Compared with Bin, is there such a difference?
Last time you said it was probably because Zhu Bin's ability is stronger than them, we all know this is not the truth, can you tell me the answer today? "
Zhu Yun was silent for a long time before slowly opening her mouth: "Binbin's ability to communicate with animals is not a supernatural ability, but an innate talent."
"Well, then what?"
"This ability was gradually revealed after Binbin had a fever and became stupid when he was a child. I discovered it by accident. At that time, I was afraid that he would be taken away by crazy scientists, so I warned him not to let anyone know that he had this ability. ability.
Binbin is very obedient, but I didn't expect him to expose his ability because of your fat cat.I don't know how you found out that he had this ability at the time.I’m going to confess to you today, I just hope you don’t let Binbin’s ability, which is different from other animal trainers, be exposed to the eyes of more ambitious people. I know you are very powerful, but I don’t want Binbin to be overwhelmed by your self-confidence. suffer any unnecessary harm. "
Because of Zhu Bin's talent, Zhu Yun went out of his way to get to know the two beast trainers in the military. Up to now, their abilities are good enough to control three mutant beasts.
But Zhu Bin is different. His talent is not in control, but in communication and communication, and he has a quality that can attract animals.
There is a qualitative difference between the two!
In other words, no matter how good the animal trainer is, the number of mutant beasts they can control with their abilities is limited, but Zhu Bin, as long as those animals like him and are willing to listen to him, the animals he can control are unlimited.This is an irresistible temptation for any ambitious person.
Ever since hearing the word 'fat cat', Meowzai has become a little unhappy, and meowed in protest.Lu Qian patted it on the head to make it stop, without raising his head, he said, "You know we are building our own base, right?"
Zhu Yun nodded.
"Do you think I will let someone in my territory hurt Zhu Bin?"
"……Won't."
"Actually, the purpose of your coming today is not to let me make Zhu Bin hide his strength, but to tell me the value of Zhu Bin so that I can better protect him."
Zhu Yun laughed immediately, and her pretty face had a kind of flamboyant beauty when she smiled, quite like a queen: "The leader is indeed a smart person, and my Binbin will be taken care of by you in the future." After finishing the juice in the cup, he smacked his lips: "The leader really knows how to enjoy life. If I had known that I should wait until dinner time, I would come back, and I could have a meal along the way." After saying goodbye, he walked out swaggeringly.
"..." Lu Qian looked at her back, and suddenly felt as if he was surrounded by this woman.
Delusion.
T city.
The cold winter can't dampen everyone's enthusiasm for building the base. If Lu Xun hadn't brutally executed a few spies a few days ago, everyone's mood would have been even higher.
The Central Plains area is slightly warmer than City A, and coal is cheaper, but these bases without government organizations will not help survivors for nothing, and their taxes are even higher.
There is a saying that is very correct, people are forced out.Compared with City A, the survivors of the small and medium-sized bases are obviously much tougher. They are not tough. When the zombies besieged the city, even those at the level of City A were forced to run out of water. These ordinary bases are far from having such high and thick walls. , Don't try your best to kill zombies, isn't that waiting to die?
However, high taxes mean that their lives are not easy. There is no work in winter, and food prices rise again and again. If this continues, many people will have to go hungry.Some people heard that a new base was being built in T City, and construction workers were paid preferential treatment. After a fierce ideological struggle, many people dragged their families and defected there.
Some of them are not construction workers, and they tried their luck in the past with the mentality of giving it a try.
They were lucky, the weather was too cold, the construction progress of the new base was seriously affected, and a lot of labor was urgently needed. These people came here to solve Xue Chen's urgent needs, so they were not treated badly.
He arranged for these people to live temporarily in the underground research institute, with the heater turned on all day long, and they could live in a single piece of clothing inside, which saved a lot of money on charcoal fires, and the remuneration was extremely generous. There was no pressure to support a family, and the survivors It's so beautiful that I can hardly find the north.
These survivors left the original base and never went back. People speculated that it must be because the conditions of the new base were good, and some hesitant people also made up their minds.
As a result, thousands of survivors were ushered in before the base was successfully built.
People who can make up their minds to "immigrate" when the road is blocked by heavy snow, and "immigrate" smoothly, have strong mental and physical qualities.
No matter which base this kind of survivors are welcome, Xue Chen took the opportunity to speak out, telling the survivors to settle down before the Spring Festival, the account fee will be waived, and they can give priority to choosing a residence in the future.As soon as the word spread, more survivors rushed over in the wind and snow.
The behavior of the Black Claw Mercenary Corps to 'rob people' overtly and secretly made the bosses of the Survivor Base in the Central Plains hate their teeth, but there was nothing they could do. Could they beat the Black Claw Mercenary Corps?
Don't you feel uncomfortable living if you dare to trouble them?
They silently hoped in their hearts that next year there would be a big tsunami that would flood T City in one fell swoop, and sometimes they would cry!
Unfortunately, their wish was doomed to fail. According to Lu Qian's memory, the location of the base was fine until the end.
In a blink of an eye, the Lunar New Year is coming, and the new base was expanded by 1/3 than the original plan, and finally built successfully.
No matter how fierce the battles among the major military regions were, they all reached a consensus on how to deal with City A——City A should not be left in chaos—at least on the surface.After all, obedient people are much easier to manage than violent people, aren't they?There was already a patrol team, and the bigwigs of the military region picked something out of their teeth, and continued to store up this security force.
Because of the existence of these patrols, after the government cut off the relief for ordinary survivors, City A, which was once in chaos, quickly restored 'order'.This 'order' based on violence and bloodshed seems to be calm, but it is actually on the verge of breaking out.
In order to resist the severe cold weather, some families with good relations will get together, pool money to buy some coal, take out the quilts and clothes of each family, and build a big shop around the stove, and use the firelight and each other's body temperature Use the most affordable way to dispel the cold.
At present, the largest coal reserves in city A are the Black Claw Mercenary Group and the J Military Region, and they are also the two with the cheapest prices.Lu Qian had foreseen the severe cold early in the morning, so he sent his caravan to SX to exchange a lot of coal, and through Li Jingwu's mouth, he reminded Li Gan that the weather might change this year.Li Gan was skeptical, and sent people to SX to bring back a lot of coal.

The heavy snow interfered with the communication signal. If the eyeliner wants to send back the news, he must contact outsiders. Let Xiao Qi remind Xiao Xun later. It should not be difficult to find this person.

The warlords from all sides occupy City A, and it will become inevitable for them to feed their soldiers and pay heavy taxes.In addition, with so many supernatural beings in his hands, they will definitely become the targets of all forces.Loyalty and interests have been difficult to balance since ancient times.

In fact, they used their hidden resources to secretly win over the old troops in the army.
Originally, Zhu's father and son could use this batch of supplies to be a wealthy idler, but Zhu Jiabao suddenly stopped raising when he was messing with a group of men.He didn't feel ashamed, so he invited all the experts that City A could invite to show him. The experts came to the conclusion that he was drugged, and unless there was a miracle, there was no hope of recovery in this life.
That's not counting, but Zhu Jiabao's wife gave birth here, and the baby was stillborn.He asked someone to investigate the matter, and the attending doctor at the time said that the fetus died of natural causes, and had already died half a month ago.How can the Zhu family accept this unprecedented fact?
I don't know who gave the father and son the will-o'-the-wisp, making them believe that Li Gan did it.
Li Gan's scapegoat is beyond debate, and Zhu's father and son try their best to block him all day long.Once Mr. Xie passed away, they intensified their efforts. They not only contacted the old Zhu family frequently, but also colluded with the C military region and the G military region. They wished that he would immediately follow in the footsteps of Mr. Xie and go directly to the sky to meet the great revolutionary leader.
Mr. Xie passed away suddenly. Colonel Xie was so busy with internal and external troubles, how could he have time to come and take care of his affairs?
At such a delicate juncture, Li Gan was reluctant to give up Lu Qian as an ally no matter what.Perhaps, Lu Xun and Xue Chen, who made Zhu Jiabao suddenly stop, did not expect such a predicament for Li Gan.
The Black Claw Mercenary Corps may not be able to compare with any other military region, but just relying on the names of Lu Qian and Xue Chen as the number one supernatural masters, their influence and cohesion among supernatural beings, and Lu Qian's actions alone He decided that Lu Qian was definitely very human.He was able to create a mercenary group that was recognized as the number one by himself, so would he create another survivor base that was recognized as the number one?
This kind of idea is very whimsical, but Li Qian has a voice in his heart telling him again and again, what if it is true?
However, handing over military experts and dividing a piece of cake to Lu Qian is not only a matter of interests, but also threats and risks from various military regions.
Since Li Jingwu has not been on a mission recently, he has been staying at home, so he is naturally aware of the predicament his father is facing.However, "Dad, haven't you already agreed to the request of the head of the regiment? Why do you still ask me? If you want me to say, it is not enough to send only a few military experts. Some of them also sent a few to our mercenary group."
Li Gan pointed at him angrily, and cursed: "You bastard, it's said that the girl turned her elbows out, I really gave birth to your son in vain!"
Li Jingwu rubbed his nose and said innocently: "Dad, you already gave your son to Lu Qian as a favor, would you mind sending a few more experts to strengthen the 'love is stronger than gold' friendship between you?" Dad didn't reject Lu Qian on the spot, so he knew that he would agree in all likelihood.
"Old Li, look, I told you not to be a mercenary for that troublemaker, but you two just don't listen to me. Listen, you have only been there for a few days. What are you talking about! No big deal! Little one." Wang Jingru seemed to blame, but actually defended her shortcomings.
How could Li Qian fail to see his wife's tricks?He laughed and scolded, "Just protect your son!"
Wang Jingru glanced at her handsome son and held her head up proudly: "This is necessary!"
A few days later, Li Gan sent people to Lu Qian, ten military experts specializing in guns, ten aerospace experts, twenty researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and three military production lines.
The sincerity was enough to surprise even Lu Qian.But when he thought about Li Qian's current situation, he was relieved.
Li Qian was giving people and goods, so he took two big fat pigs back from Lu Qian, and the business lost all his money.
The current situation in City A is changing rapidly. Lu Qian didn't plan to leave for a while, so he sent his personal guards to send these experts, their relatives and crews to City T.
The road was blocked by freezing weather and heavy snow. Even without the zombies chasing after him, the journey was quite difficult.
It took more than half a month for the guards to send people there and then return.
The severe cold weather not only pushed human beings into a desperate situation, but also many mutant beasts were cornered, frequently braving the severe cold to attack human beings.Zhu Bin went out this time and 'picked up' many mutant beasts, the most powerful of which was a pair of Haidongqing.
This pair of mutated Haidongqing stands more than one meter tall, and its wings are five meters long. One of the males also has an extremely rare wind ability. Not only can it throw wind blades at least twice as fast as ordinary airplanes .
These two sea dongqings originally lived in the deep mountains and old forests in the northeast. The temperature of which one was too low this year. Many animals froze to death in the forest, and those who survived found holes to hide. It was difficult for them to hunt, and they were frozen I couldn't take it anymore, so I left the lair.Unexpectedly, the first time he went south, when he was about to hunt, he encountered the personal guards of the Black Claw Mercenary Group.Relying on his unique affinity, Zhu Bin promised a long list of things, and finally persuaded the two eagles to reluctantly agree to stay with him in the mercenary group.
Lu Qian repeated his old trick, poured down a few bottles of the fountain of life, and Adong, Xiaoqing, and the other mutant beasts all stayed obediently.
Zhu Bin was worried that he would come and get scolded for 'picking up' so many 'cute' little animals, but he didn't expect that Lu Qian not only didn't scold him, but also rewarded him with a precious speeder crystal core, which weighed twenty catties Fat pork, and promised that the mercenary group will be responsible for the daily expenses of these animals, so he only needs to spend more time communicating with these animals.
In Zhu Bin's view, communicating with these animals is simply fun, and the joy is almost bubbling.
Facing her innocent younger brother, Zhu Yun had no choice but to have a good talk with Lu Qian.
It was rare for Lu Qian to be a gentleman and poured Zhu Yun a glass of freshly squeezed juice, handed it to Zhu Yun, walked to sit opposite her.
"You came to me specifically because of Zhu Bin's affairs?"
Zhu Yun looked at Lu Qian's face that became more and more beautiful and stronger under pressure, and took a deep breath: "Lu Qian, I still say the same thing, don't hurt my brother."
Lu Qian looked at her indifferently: "Do you think I did something to hurt him?"
Zhu Yun was dumbfounded, and decided to start with Lu Qian on the way from Beijing. Lu Qian didn't say that he took good care of their siblings, but Zhu Bin's 'disease' was indeed cured by him. His strength is also indispensable.However, at the same time, she and Binbin have also devoted their loyalty to the mercenary group.
but……
"I know your worries, but you just don't want to overexpose Zhu Bin's ability." Lu Qian looked at Zhu Yun's uncertain face, and continued: "I've always been curious, why did the two animal trainers in the military compete with Zhu Bin? Compared with Bin, is there such a difference?
Last time you said it was probably because Zhu Bin's ability is stronger than them, we all know this is not the truth, can you tell me the answer today? "
Zhu Yun was silent for a long time before slowly opening her mouth: "Binbin's ability to communicate with animals is not a supernatural ability, but an innate talent."
"Well, then what?"
"This ability was gradually revealed after Binbin had a fever and became stupid when he was a child. I discovered it by accident. At that time, I was afraid that he would be taken away by crazy scientists, so I warned him not to let anyone know that he had this ability. ability.
Binbin is very obedient, but I didn't expect him to expose his ability because of your fat cat.I don't know how you found out that he had this ability at the time.I’m going to confess to you today, I just hope you don’t let Binbin’s ability, which is different from other animal trainers, be exposed to the eyes of more ambitious people. I know you are very powerful, but I don’t want Binbin to be overwhelmed by your self-confidence. suffer any unnecessary harm. "
Because of Zhu Bin's talent, Zhu Yun went out of his way to get to know the two beast trainers in the military. Up to now, their abilities are good enough to control three mutant beasts.
But Zhu Bin is different. His talent is not in control, but in communication and communication, and he has a quality that can attract animals.
There is a qualitative difference between the two!
In other words, no matter how good the animal trainer is, the number of mutant beasts they can control with their abilities is limited, but Zhu Bin, as long as those animals like him and are willing to listen to him, the animals he can control are unlimited.This is an irresistible temptation for any ambitious person.
Ever since hearing the word 'fat cat', Meowzai has become a little unhappy, and meowed in protest.Lu Qian patted it on the head to make it stop, without raising his head, he said, "You know we are building our own base, right?"
Zhu Yun nodded.
"Do you think I will let someone in my territory hurt Zhu Bin?"
"……Won't."
"Actually, the purpose of your coming today is not to let me make Zhu Bin hide his strength, but to tell me the value of Zhu Bin so that I can better protect him."
Zhu Yun laughed immediately, and her pretty face had a kind of flamboyant beauty when she smiled, quite like a queen: "The leader is indeed a smart person, and my Binbin will be taken care of by you in the future." After finishing the juice in the cup, he smacked his lips: "The leader really knows how to enjoy life. If I had known that I should wait until dinner time, I would come back, and I could have a meal along the way." After saying goodbye, he walked out swaggeringly.
"..." Lu Qian looked at her back, and suddenly felt as if he was surrounded by this woman.
Delusion.
T city.
The cold winter can't dampen everyone's enthusiasm for building the base. If Lu Xun hadn't brutally executed a few spies a few days ago, everyone's mood would have been even higher.
The Central Plains area is slightly warmer than City A, and coal is cheaper, but these bases without government organizations will not help survivors for nothing, and their taxes are even higher.
There is a saying that is very correct, people are forced out.Compared with City A, the survivors of the small and medium-sized bases are obviously much tougher. They are not tough. When the zombies besieged the city, even those at the level of City A were forced to run out of water. These ordinary bases are far from having such high and thick walls. , Don't try your best to kill zombies, isn't that waiting to die?
However, high taxes mean that their lives are not easy. There is no work in winter, and food prices rise again and again. If this continues, many people will have to go hungry.Some people heard that a new base was being built in T City, and construction workers were paid preferential treatment. After a fierce ideological struggle, many people dragged their families and defected there.
Some of them are not construction workers, and they tried their luck in the past with the mentality of giving it a try.
They were lucky, the weather was too cold, the construction progress of the new base was seriously affected, and a lot of labor was urgently needed. These people came here to solve Xue Chen's urgent needs, so they were not treated badly.
He arranged for these people to live temporarily in the underground research institute, with the heater turned on all day long, and they could live in a single piece of clothing inside, which saved a lot of money on charcoal fires, and the remuneration was extremely generous. There was no pressure to support a family, and the survivors It's so beautiful that I can hardly find the north.
These survivors left the original base and never went back. People speculated that it must be because the conditions of the new base were good, and some hesitant people also made up their minds.
As a result, thousands of survivors were ushered in before the base was successfully built.
People who can make up their minds to "immigrate" when the road is blocked by heavy snow, and "immigrate" smoothly, have strong mental and physical qualities.
No matter which base this kind of survivors are welcome, Xue Chen took the opportunity to speak out, telling the survivors to settle down before the Spring Festival, the account fee will be waived, and they can give priority to choosing a residence in the future.As soon as the word spread, more survivors rushed over in the wind and snow.
The behavior of the Black Claw Mercenary Corps to 'rob people' overtly and secretly made the bosses of the Survivor Base in the Central Plains hate their teeth, but there was nothing they could do. Could they beat the Black Claw Mercenary Corps?
Don't you feel uncomfortable living if you dare to trouble them?
They silently hoped in their hearts that next year there would be a big tsunami that would flood T City in one fell swoop, and sometimes they would cry!
Unfortunately, their wish was doomed to fail. According to Lu Qian's memory, the location of the base was fine until the end.
In a blink of an eye, the Lunar New Year is coming, and the new base was expanded by 1/3 than the original plan, and finally built successfully.
