Southern paradise.

Several helicopters landed slowly.

Mr. Hu, Li Yu and others got out of the helicopter.

After getting off the helicopter, Li Yu said to Li Tie and others:

"Fill up the fuel. After filling up, we will set off back to Oil City."

"Okay, brother." Li Tie nodded and went to refuel the helicopter.

When they came out this time, there were not many people on board the helicopter, so most of the space was used to store aviation kerosene.

Although there is still fuel in the helicopter, it is almost enough to fly back to Oil City, but for the sake of safety, it is safer to fill up the tank.

After hearing what Li Yu said, Master Hu smiled and invited:

"City Master Li, don't be so anxious. You can have another night's rest in the Southern Paradise tonight, and it will be the same when you return tomorrow."

"No need."

Li Yu shook his head and said:

"I'm going back to Oil City this time, and I'll probably go back to the Zhangshu Base Headquarters tomorrow or two days. Master Hu, didn't you always say you want to go and have a look? How about we come together?"

Hearing this, Master Hu smiled bitterly and said:

"It won't be possible for the time being. There are a lot of things going on right now. The trading bazaar we cooperate with has recently been delayed due to heavy rains, and the transportation of raw materials has been delayed. I have to watch."

Master Hu's reason was quite legitimate, and Li Yu stopped trying to persuade him after hearing what he said.

It took more than ten minutes to refuel the helicopter, so Li Yu just watched and waited next to the helicopter.

Mr. Hu was also accompanying him. After all, Li Yu had such a high status. If he just ran up and ignored Li Yu, it would seem a bit ungrateful.

The two chatted while waiting for Li Tie and others to refuel the helicopter.

Very quickly, ten minutes flew by.

"Brother, the fuel has been filled up and you can set off at any time." Li Tie came over to report.

"Um."

Li Yu nodded slightly, then turned to Master Hu and said:

"Master Hu, I'll leave it to you to trade the raw materials at the bazaar. I'll leave now. See you next time."

With a smile on his face, Master Hu took the initiative to reach out and hold Li Yu's hand, feeling inexplicably and saying:

"City Master Li, have a nice journey. I hope that after the trading market is built, it will become bigger and stronger!"

"That's for sure." Li Yu patted the back of Master Hu's hand, and then walked towards the helicopter.

Looking at Li Yu's leaving figure, Mr. Hu felt filled with emotion in his heart.

He feels that he is getting old, and he doesn't know how long he can lead Southern Paradise.

The waves of zombies one after another made them physically and mentally exhausted.

Maybe one day in the future, Southern Paradise can really no longer hold on, and at least there is this trading market as a retreat.

After a long period of contact, especially the experience of going to Naked Castle together on this trip, Mr. Hu has a deeper understanding of Li Yu.

Such a person would be very scary to become an enemy.

But if you become his friend or one of your own, you should feel very safe.

Thinking of this, Master Hu was in a daze, watching the helicopter fly higher and higher until it disappeared from the sky.

In a helicopter.

Li Yu saw that Li Tie seemed to be worried, so he asked:

"Tiezi, what's wrong with you?"

Li Tie came to his senses when he heard Li Yu calling him.

"Huh? It's okay."

"Just counting how long we've been out..."

Li Yu was slightly startled when he heard what he said, as if counting the days, it had been more than a month.

It's been over a month.

After coming out of the base, we first encountered a plane crash on the way to Oil City.

After running away in the virgin forest for several days, I met a group of survivors later.

After that, he went directly to the northern border and stayed in the northern border for more than half a month.

Clean up the zombies in the northern territory and then take over the affiliated forces.

Plan the northern border, dispatch personnel from the Da Zhangshu Base to support it, and prepare to build it into a grain production base.

.....

Over the past month or so, one incident after another has been passing through my mind.

It gives people a dream-like feeling.

The helicopter flew for less than two hours and arrived above Oil City.

Looking down from above the Oil City, you can see the entire trading market.

More than half of the foundation for the trading market wall has been built, and it is expected to be completed in a few days.

Once the foundation is done, the remaining walls can be poured directly with concrete, which will be faster.

Once the wall is built, foreign trade can almost begin.

Propaganda is necessary in any era, even in the last days.

It is still in the construction stage. Li Yu has asked all the people who go out to collect supplies to try their best to tell the survivors they encounter what this trading market can do and that they are welcome to come here to trade.

Buzz buzz——

There are people everywhere on the construction site of the trading market.

Many people on the ground raised their heads and looked at the helicopter in the sky, flying towards the oil city.

"It must be that the city lord is back. I heard that they went to the Southern Paradise. I don't know what they were doing there."

"It seems that there is trouble over there in Southern Paradise. I heard it from someone yesterday."

"You two, stop gossiping and hurry up!"

....

Around Oil City, the rain on the ground has dried up long ago. Oil City is located inland. It rained a few days ago in Southern Paradise, and it was still heavy rain.

However, it only rained lightly for half a day, which did not delay the construction progress too much.

As the helicopter lands.

Ju Tianrui felt relieved when he saw Li Yu walking out of the helicopter.

When he communicated with Xiao Jun on the radio two days ago, he learned that it had rained heavily over there, and he had been worried about it for the past few days.

"City Lord, you are finally back. Is Chen Er okay now?" Ju Tianrui walked up and asked.

Li Yu nodded and said: "It's okay."

"I just saw that it was going very fast. There seemed to be a lot more people. Where did these people come from?"

"Coming from the north."

Ju Tianrui opened the list in his hand and continued:

"The Iron Blood Gang, their gang leader's surname is He. His name is He Tian. He probably brought more than 300 people."

"There is also an ancient city force with more than two hundred people."

Li Yu remembered that he had called on the affiliated forces in the north to come to the trading market. Unexpectedly, four or five forces came one after another, totaling almost 1,300 people.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! If you add the 800 people from Southern Paradise and the 500 reinforcements from Da Zhangshu Base, the total construction personnel here exceeds 2,600.

This number is very scary.

Like when the outer city was built at Dazhangshu Base, there were only a few hundred people.

After the fourth outer city was built, the number of people increased.

Li Yu thought for a while and asked:

"Will there be pressure on food?"

Ju Tianrui pointed to several trucks passing by and replied:

"Fortunately, the minister sent someone to transport another batch of food from the north. It should be enough for everyone in Oil City to eat for three months."

Hundreds of tons of grain were obtained from the north, enough to sustain them for a long time.

What's more, the Da Zhangshu Base is still producing a steady stream of food.

When the northern border is renovated and greenhouses are built, the food production there will be very impressive.

Overall, their current food reserves are enough to support the construction of the trading bazaar.
