There are really too many things going on here in the north.
Li Yu flew to the northern border, but the helicopter encountered a problem and crashed on the way. In addition, it took a week to inventory the supplies in the northern border.
Then it took another ten days to persuade the surrounding forces to report.
More than half a month has passed and it's not over yet.
Seeing that the trading market was about to be launched, he had to go there to select a location and communicate with Southern Paradise about the matter.
There are a lot of things to do, so he doesn't want to waste too much time here.
If you can solve something with your hands, you will never force it.
Your patience is limited, so get it done as soon as possible.
No one in the audience spoke.
Li Yu's face returned to the calm expression before and continued:
"Then if no one raises their hands, just assume that everyone agrees."
"There's only one chance. I don't want to hear anyone regret it in the future."
"If you have any objections, say it now! Do you have any?"
Everyone quickly shook their heads and shouted:
"No, no, we have no objection."
But he thought secretly in his heart: How dare you have an opinion? Brother Tai is a lesson learned from the past.
On the surface it was an inquiry, but in fact they were not given any choice to object.
If you don’t agree, you will die.
Agree and live.
It's that simple.
Seeing that everyone agreed, Li Yu nodded with satisfaction and continued:
"The second thing."
"Although the Northern Territory is destroyed, I suspect that Yuan Zhi escaped. If you have any information about Yuan Zhi, I will waive the protection fee for a quarter.
Or we can bring Yuan Zhi directly and waive the protection fee for one year."
"But if you let me know, there is someone among you here who is hiding someone who is protecting Yuan Zhi."
"This is his fate."
As he spoke, Li Yu pointed at the bodies of Brother Tai and others on the ground that had not yet been cleaned up.
Following the direction of Li Yu's finger, everyone looked at the corpses of Brother Tai and others.
Responses came one after another.
"We, the Iron Blood Gang, will do our best to fulfill City Lord Li's instructions. If we find Yuan Zhi, we will definitely hand him over to you."
"It's the same in Jiming Ancient City. Anyone who dares to protect Yuan Zhi will have trouble with me."
....
These people were enthusiastic and enthusiastic, patting their chests and saying they would go find out about Yuan Zhi's whereabouts.
If the protection fee just now was because Li Yu killed Brother Tai, it was a prestige; then now it is a benefit. As long as Yuan Zhi is found, the protection fee can be reduced or reduced.
Even if it's only for one quarter, it's still a huge amount of money.
Everyone is very positive.
Seeing the reactions of the people in the audience, Li Yu nodded slightly.
"Yes, everyone seems to be very enthusiastic."
Li Yu looked at everyone and continued:
"The third thing is a gift I prepared for everyone."
When they heard the word "gift", surprise appeared on everyone's faces.
It was too scary just now, so it would be better to bring a gift to soothe their little hearts.
I saw Li Yu continuing on the stage:
"I have always valued fairness. In the future, the northern border will regularly release some tasks, such as collecting certain supplies, or inquiring about information, or even recruiting manpower to do some things. Everyone can sign up to participate."
"Similarly, I won't treat you badly. If you complete the corresponding tasks, we will give you certain material rewards. If you don't want material rewards, you can also use them to offset the protection fees for each quarter. Those who make major outstanding achievements can be exempted for one year.
protection fee.
You can even move to the North and truly become a part of the North."
"Someone will explain the specific tasks later."
After Li Yu finished speaking, everyone in the audience exploded instantly.
"What a good thing! This gift comes just in time."
"Hahaha, we can still get missions in the future, and maybe we can get rid of the protection fee."
"Maybe the tasks announced are not that easy to complete, but in the end, it is good news."
Li Yu saw the people below talking about it and didn't stop him.
He has finished speaking.
So he said to everyone:
"I've finished speaking. If you still have any questions, you can tell them now!"
The words just fell.
Someone below raised his hand and said loudly:
"City Lord Li, you just mentioned recruiting manpower to do something, what is it for?"
Li Yu raised his eyebrows, a little surprised.
Since this was mentioned, it might as well be said in advance.
So he opened his mouth and answered:
"For example, a recent thing is that we are not from the north, so we also have some territory in other places."
"There is an oil city over there in Xinyang, and I plan to build a trading market there. During the construction process, the reward will be food, accommodation, and two meals a day.
If you don't want to eat for free, you can also convert it into supplies for everyone after the construction task is completed.
In addition, those involved in the construction project are exempt from protection fees during the construction process.
Those who are interested can go there and participate in the construction project. Of course, I also welcome everyone to move there."
"After the trading market is built, those involved in the construction will enjoy free entry."
This benefit is very, very good.
Not only do you no longer have to pay protection fees, but food and accommodation are also included.
But the problem is that this is equivalent to working under others' noses and losing your freedom.
These people did not enter the Northern Territory because they wanted their freedom. Although they belonged to the affiliated forces of the Northern Territory, as long as they paid enough protection fees, the Northern Territory would not care about them.
Have a lot of autonomy.
The person who asked the question was the leader of the He Gang of the Iron Blood Gang. After hearing what Li Yu said,
His face was filled with excitement.
Among the more than 20 forces, the Iron Blood Gang is considered weak.
Moreover, the place where it is located is primitive.
Every time a zombie wave attacks, it will cause huge casualties to their personnel.
As a last resort, he also sought refuge in the North from time to time.
But staying in the north, there is no way to get food.
Coupled with the issue of protection fees in the north, it was like a big mountain weighing on his head, making him breathless.
But now that he has such a good mission, no wonder he is excited.
It sounds like the trading market is not a project that can be completed in a few days; it will take at least a few months. During these few months, he does not have to worry about protection fees at all.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Moreover, he will have to pay the protection fee next month, and he has not saved enough for it until now.
But now City Lord Li gave him a choice, a choice that not only did not require him to pay protection fees, but also gave him food.
What a great person.
This task was like a pie falling from the sky to him.
"I'll join!" Leader He raised his hand without hesitation.
Maybe it was because of his response, or maybe the conditions given by Li Yu were too tempting.
Three or four more leaders of the forces raised their hands in response.
Among them, Tong Rugui raised her hands high.
He finally saw that it was definitely right to follow City Lord Li.
Besides, the place he was in wasn't that good, otherwise he wouldn't have been trying to occupy the Tuwentan cave.
Tu Wentan became anxious when he saw Tong Rugui raising her hand.
However, he couldn't bear to part with the excellent land in the cave.
In confusion, he asked:
"City Lord Li, can I send only a few people there?"
His idea was that he would keep the cave for the time being, as it was in a unique location that could produce food and resist the tide of zombies, so he didn't want to lose it.
He wants both.
Li Yu looked at him. He knew this Tu Wentan.
So he said: "Yes, but the remaining personnel who stay in the original place will still have to pay a corresponding proportion of protection fees."
Tu Wentan heard this and nodded quickly: "I understand."
With a smile on his face.
This result is something he can bear.
Then Li Yu asked everyone if they had any other questions.
After receiving a no-questions answer, Li Yu left here and entered the inner city.
Li Tie coughed twice and then stood on the high platform.
Below, Zhong Chuchu, Shen Xiaoxiao and others handed over sheets of paper filled with tasks to these people.
"Let me tell you in detail about the details of each task..."
....
Before Li Tie could say a few words, a helicopter buzzed from above.
I saw six helicopters flying out from the inner city in the north, passing by in the sky.
Everyone recalled what City Lord Li said to Minister Li just now, and then watched Minister Li leave here and enter the inner city.
Obviously, these six helicopters are most likely going to deal with the remaining people in Taige City.
"..."
this....
No, seriously.
The speed of action is so fast.
Heart palpitations.
"Looking at the direction the helicopter is flying, it should be heading to Taige City. This is so cruel."
"Who says it's not the case? Brother Tai died a bit unjustly."
"I finally understand. The main thing about Li Cheng is that he is completely obedient. If we listen to him, he will definitely not treat us too badly. But if we don't, he will be really cruel."
"Oh, Taige City is not weak at all. There are so many people inside, so it would be a pity to wipe them out all at once."
"What do you know? If I had this kind of strength, I would definitely do the same thing. Brother Tai has already been killed, and I still have to spend so much energy trying to calm down the mood of those people in Brother Tai City. Who knows what will happen next?
If we won’t cause trouble, it’s better to kill them directly.”
"Once a person is dead, there is no way back."
"That's the truth."
"Stop arguing, I want to listen to the mission..."
After the helicopter flew away, everyone became quiet, and Li Tie continued to talk about the task list in hand:
"1. Mission to search for extraterrestrial meteorites.
Characteristics of the object: The surface is uneven and appears black....
Possible places: M...
Reward: Lifelong exemption from protection fees, and two tons of food and other supplies."
.....
When these affiliated force members saw the first mission, their eyes widened and they gasped.
The rewards are really generous.
Not only were the lifetime protection fees waived, but they were also given two tons of food. This was not the end of the story. Ten people from the northern inner city were even given quotas to enjoy basic food treatment.
There are also other benefits that make them covet.
If this is found, it will be like a wave of success.
But this extraterrestrial meteorite is too abstract.
Although there is a simple description, no one has any clues at all.
It's like looking for a needle in a haystack.
It can only depend on luck.
.....
After Li Yu returned to the inner city, he received a call from his second uncle.
"Xiaoyu, the first batch of people supporting the trading bazaar have already set off today and are expected to arrive in Oil City in the evening.
The personnel supporting the northern border did not take helicopters, and the number of helicopters was limited. I asked them to come over in Dongfeng and Lao Yi's car heading north."
"Also, Ju Tianrui told me that Mr. Tiger from Southern Paradise is already waiting for you there."
Li Yu sighed and said:
"Things in the north are almost over, but I have to wait until my third uncle comes back."
"What? The third child went to fight again? Didn't all the affiliated forces come over today?" the second uncle asked in surprise.
fight?
Li Yu almost didn't react when he heard his second uncle use this word.
You use the word "fight" for such a murderous thing.
How childish and presumptuous.
Perhaps as the second brother, he would say this about the third uncle.
Li Yu, dumbfounded, explained:
"I just said something to those affiliated forces, and some people were dissatisfied, so I simply killed them. In order to avoid future troubles, my third uncle went to their lair... um... to fight!"
When the second uncle heard this, he didn't answer for a long time.
It wasn't until half a minute later that he spoke:
"Fighting and killing, alas... I don't know when it will end."
"My boss feels like I can't keep up with your pace."
"It's been so long since the base has been developed, and I haven't left the base yet. Your uncle has changed a lot since he came back from a trip last time. It makes me wonder what happened to him."
"When you come back to the headquarters, I also want to visit Oil City and the North to see what's going on outside and help you find out if there are any hidden dangers."
Li Yu's heart moved.
Although the second uncle always said not to fight or kill, many times when he was away, the orders he gave to the people below were not much gentler than his own.
He is also a ruthless person.
So he opened his mouth and said:
"Okay, after I finish my work at the trading market, I will return to the Da Zhangshu base. By the way, have you found the reason for the helicopter crash?"
The second uncle scratched his head and said:
"The temporarily discovered problem is that the screws are loose, but I'm afraid there are other problems, so I asked He Bing and Lao Zhou to continue investigating."
"Well..." Li Yu was silent.
The two chatted for a while about the location of the trading market.
Their thoughts at the beginning of this question were:
Near the oil city, a new trading bazaar was built.
Don't be too far away.
There is some distance between the two.
But now that the North is destroyed, although Southern Paradise will still participate, the strength of Southern Paradise at this time seems to be too weak.
There are only a few thousand people in total, and we can't send all of them to build it.
So simply, Li Yu thought of building the trading market outside the Oil City.
Oil City serves as an inner city, and Trading Market serves as an outer city.
In this way, Oil City can be better protected.
And it can also be in a central position and firmly control the trading market.
There is no need to disperse personnel, so that the minimum number of people can exert maximum strength.
also.
It will also be more convenient for the development of trading markets.
Because in the transaction, fuel occupies a large category, which also saves transportation.
and,
Relying on the Oil City to build a larger outer city will be more convenient in terms of construction difficulty.
It just so happens that there are plains near Oil City, which is also conducive to construction.
