Chapter 55: The Caravan Appeared

The Talmud Basin is the name of this basin. The entire basin is large and is home to more than one million people. Almost all of them live around the giant lake in the center of the Talmud Basin.

It is like a closed world, the Tum Basin has few connections with the outside world, and is more unfamiliar to the world.

It was unimaginable before the nuclear war. The area with more than one million people was an incalculable rocky area, and a giant lake salt kelp, known as a world-class wonder, had long become a tourist destination. But the fact is that people here live a closed life, and many people never left the Tum Basin in their lives.

The environment around the Talmu Basin is very harsh, and the existence of mutant beasts is one of the important reasons for blocking the Talmu Basin.

Because the rocks are very serious and the rocks contain many elements that are not conducive to crop growth, this has always been short of food in the Talmud Basin. For this reason, the authorities have to work hard to control the population of the Talmud Basin and try to synchronize output and consumption so as not to cause hunger.

Despite this, the population continues to grow, seriously threatening the balance of grain output in the Tum Basin.

Due to the harsh environment and the inability to use air transportation, the Tum Basin has not been able to find a solution to the Tum Basin dilemma for hundreds of years.

The most famous thing in the Talmud Basin is the fine salt produced, which was regarded as a fist product by the authorities at that time. Unfortunately, in the environment of the Talmud Basin, there were almost no caravans, let alone transporting the fine salt to export.

Every year, the company chamber of commerce tries to open up plans to go to the Talmud Basin, but either the losses end in failure or the costs of opening up are too high and there is no commercial significance.

After a long period of development, the Talmud Basin has almost been forgotten.

…………

In the evening, people living in the Talmud Basin, as usual, cook at sunset.

The winding road is extremely quiet. Only occasionally can one or two local people pass by it and disappear quickly. The national highway, which was constantly traffic, has now completely changed its appearance and has become deserted. The disrepaired road is no longer the lifeline of the Tum Basin. In the eyes of many people, this road does not lead to the outside world, but to hell.

But today seems to be a little different. There are shocking roars of cows from time to time on the road. From far to near, a caravan composed of two barbarian bulls appeared on this rock sea that had been quiet for too long.

On the cargo compartment, there were four large blue characters printed with the words of Ning's Chamber of Commerce, which deeply hurt the eyes of people along the way.

The residents of the scattered highway, as if they had discovered alien visitors, all rushed up the side of the highway, staring at the caravan that suddenly broke into the Talmud Basin with wide eyes.

"Come on, caravan, caravan appears."

"The caravan is the caravan."

People who were running around and telling each other, with a curious heart, put down their work and stood in front of their homes, or appeared on the road, looking at the caravan slowly advancing on the road.

Caravan, the word "Cargoyle" has not appeared in the Talmud Basin for many years?

I'm afraid no one remembers this clearly. Many people who have started a family and have no idea about caravans, because they have never seen caravans appear here in the twenty or thirty years from their birth to their marriage and children.

Now that the caravan is coming and appearing in the Talmud Basin, the news is fatal to their attraction.

Among the crowd watching, the children kept rushing around the crowd like the New Year, laughing. In their eyes, the caravan was a strange thing, far less than the excitement and more attractive to them.

…………

After entering the Tum Basin, there will always be some villages on both sides of the road, or scattered areas of several households, etc.

The appearance of the caravan still caused a sensation here.

Chen Zhuangping held the gun seriously, making everyone beware of it. In his eyes, the residents here were all out-of-the-box people. Who knows if they would be greedy and rob the caravan. So what if the guard has a gun? With these more than 20 people, they can deal with the thousands of people who are bombarded by then?

The dark muzzle did play a role. The local residents only looked away from each other but did not dare to get close to the place where the caravan passed.

When I first came to Chen Zhuangping, the Tum Basin, the residents here gave him the feeling that it was the word "poor".

The villages on both sides of the highway were almost made of branches and rocks, with only some thatch on them serving as roofs. Their clothes were all ragged, and some were directly covered with leaves to cover the rotten areas. They looked very artistic, with a bunch of colorful leaf patches hanging.

The child is almost naked, and you can even see some girls who are already developing, but they are still like wild children.

Chen Zhuangping, who has been living in Shacheng and has only traveled between Hanhu Lake, finds it hard to believe that the residents in the Tamu Basin are so poor.

But just by thinking about it, it is not difficult to understand.

The Tum Basin, which has almost lost contact with the outside world, is used to grow grain. Where can I plant other fiber crops? There is almost no industrial foundation, so there is not even a garment factory here. Most people, their clothes are sewn by themselves, and they will be worn for several years if they are constantly changing clothes.

There is no commercial circulation, no fabrics transported in, etc., what can I use to make clothes?

Not just clothes, everything is lacking here, as long as it is related to life, it is extremely lacking here.

Zhang Jianyang seemed to have known all this and did not show much surprise, but the others in the caravan could not believe everything they saw.

In sandy cities and dry lakes, and surrounding cities, the concept of rural areas has long disappeared.

In this harsh living environment, rural areas cannot survive independently and must rely on cities. Therefore, after the nuclear war and the political situation is stabilized, the emergence of mutant beasts, and large-scale rural areas will be moved to cities. More, it is still the population in a certain area to live together to form a new city.

After the nuclear war, no one knows how many cities disappeared and how many cities have emerged.

It is precisely this way that the rural areas that appeared in the Talmud Basin and these uncovered residents brought too much shock to Chen Zhuangping and the others. They never imagined that there would be such a place in the world.

In fact, if Chen Zhuangping and others understood the world before the nuclear war, they would find that how many people were still struggling on the line of food and clothing, such as Hunan, Sichuan, Gansu before the nuclear war, how did the poor people live? However, the world before the nuclear war has long been buried by hundreds of years of history. In this world where crises are still everywhere, who will open these?

The caravan continued to advance along the highway, and the villages on both sides watched the caravan, but there was no plot that Chen Zhuangping imagined.

The caravan has more than 20 guns in his hand, and there is one. The residents living here know what the appearance of the caravan means for the Talmud Basin, and the authorities who rule the entire Talmud Basin have a desire for the caravan, and what kind of punishment will anyone who dares to harm or be unfavorable to the caravan.
