Hong Gongcao and others left by helicopter. Just as Hong Gongcao and others left Wuyuan Mountain, Jin Kui also left here with a small team.
Ma Laoliu looked at Jin Kui's motorcade getting further and further away, his eyes flickering, hoping that Jin Kui could bring him good news.
A dead horse is treated as a living horse.
The boss has been developing a zombie vaccine for so many years, but so far there is no result.
However, that oil city had the ability to control zombies, which made Ma Laoliu wonder if they would also have the antidote to zombies.
As we all know, zombies have no consciousness.
The people in Oil City were actually able to command the zombies. Maybe they did something to the zombies to make them obedient.
Even if there is no zombie antidote in Oil City and the zombies cannot be turned back into humans, it would be fine if the zombies could have human memories.
In this way, Xiaoru will not be just a zombie who only eats flesh and blood all day long.
He doesn't know if it will work, but he is willing to pay any price for Xiaoru.
.......
Big camphor tree base.
As usual, construction work continues in the buffer city, with vehicles coming and going transporting various building materials.
The Dazhangshu Base is currently different from the Oil City. The current implementation of the Dazhangshu Base is somewhat similar to a planned economy.
Put your efforts in one place and concentrate on doing big things.
The core of maintaining the normal operation of the three places, besides military power, the most important thing is food.
Without food, it's like a car without fuel.
Therefore, what is currently being done at the Da Zhangshu Base is to build greenhouses in the buffer city and gradually plant them.
If there is not enough food, we cannot feed enough people, and if we cannot feed enough people, there will be no one to work.
The reason why they are able to hold on now is because there were more than 3,000 tons of grain stored in the base before.
The oil city consumes huge amounts of food. To make the entire trading market prosperous, it must use food to fuel the fire and exchange food for various resources.
Currently, ordinary survivors have too few ways to obtain food, such as hunting and searching for expired cans in the ruins.
It is extremely difficult for ordinary small groups of survivors to produce food on their own.
When planted in the wild, the cycle is too long. Before the harvest season, a natural disaster destroys the crops.
Also worry about looting from other survivor teams.
Boom boom boom——
A convoy drove into the buffer city. It was Li Tie and others who had successfully returned from searching for gold in the southern Guangdong Province.
The group of them spent five days and finally returned.
When passing the weighbridge, Lai Dongsheng was very surprised as he watched the car pass by the weighbridge.
It's 100% overweight. What's in it?
But he saw that Li Tie was leading the team and did not go to check.
The convoy successfully returned to the first outer city of Wengcheng.
Li Yuan came here early, and Li Tie told her on the way that there were a lot of gold and jewelry, which were very attractive to girls.
Even in the end of the world, girls still like these shiny little objects.
As the director of the Logistics Department, Li Yuan generally handles the materials transported from the Oil City, or some of the more useful things transported by cooperating personnel to the base.
After counting and counting, they are classified into categories, sealed and stored in the warehouse, and registered and filed in the computer background.
Crunch——
Five cars stopped.
Li Tie got out of the car.
Li Yuan walked over with several people from the logistics department,
"Brother Tiezi, did your trip go well?" Li Yuan looked at the cars.
Li Tie smiled, walked straight to the heavy truck in the middle of the convoy, unlocked the lock on it, pulled the horizontal bolt with his hand, and pulled open the two doors.
hiss!
Li Yuan, Song Min, He An and others suddenly took a deep breath.
I saw that the heavy truck was filled with piles of gold jewelry.
As soon as he opened the door, the jewels piled on top of the gold fell down and scattered all over the floor.
The gold on top is stacked like bricks, and on top are various jewelry items packed in sacks.
Due to the bumps during transportation by the heavy truck, the jewelry in the sack was knocked out.
As soon as I opened the door, a lot of them fell to the ground.
How much gold jewelry is this!? At the same time, Li Yuan and others all had this question in their minds.
Li Tie walked over with a little pride and said:
"There are 50 tons of gold in total, most of which are gold bricks. There are also some scattered gold found in Shuibei. As for jewelry, I don't know how much there is. There are probably dozens of sacks, and there are some seven or eight tons.
I don’t know much about these jewelry pieces. Wu Dazun and others said that some of them are precious jadeite, pearl jewelry, bricks, stones, and other messy things.”
"Fifty tons??" Li Yuan's mouth seemed like he could fit a duck egg in.
This has exceeded the total amount of gold they have found before.
"Awesome, Brother Tiezi!" Li Yuan admired sincerely.
She likes to do logistics work very much. Whenever something comes in, she always feels a sense of satisfaction.
Looking at the various materials piled high in various warehouses, the sense of accomplishment and satisfaction is indescribable.
"It's nothing, it's nothing." Li Tie said with a smile.
Song Min's voice of disgust came from the side, "Why do you wear so many watches on your hands? You look like a nouveau riche, it's so vulgar!"
Li Tie and Li Yuan looked around and saw Cannon carrying nearly ten watches on his two arms.
These ten watches all look high-end, some are inlaid with diamonds, some are inlaid with precious stones, and they are dazzling in the sun.
Cannon deliberately wore short sleeves to show off the watches on his hands.
I saw that he didn't care about Song Min's dislike at all, but said in a show off tone:
"No one can own Patek Philippe, it's just for the next generation to keep."
“You can easily own time, but you cannot easily own Vacheron Constantin.”
"Do you know what's on my arm?"
“Patek Philippe!”
“Vacheron Constantin!”
“Rolex!”
"Lange!"
"Breguet!"
"Omega!"
...
"Luxury watches, before the end of the world, I would have worn hundreds of millions on my arm, okay, brand!"
There is even a big gold chain as big as a little finger hanging around Cannon's neck, and all ten fingers are covered with emerald rings.
Song Min walked over, pulled the iron chain on the cannon's chest like a dog, and pulled it to the side of the heavy truck.
"Hey, hey, give me some face, Min'er, don't make trouble, this is outside, give me some face..."
"Song Min, if you keep doing this, I'm going to be angry!"
Song Min glanced at him, put her hands on her waist, and looked at him with disbelief:
"You're angry! Give me a baby. Don't go home tonight."
Cannon's expression that was about to be angry suddenly faltered.
"Okay, okay, hey, my little ancestor. Why don't I take it off..."
With a face full of complaints, Cannon took off the big gold chain around his neck. This big gold chain was quite heavy.
At least it's a few pounds bigger.
He took it apart bit by bit, revealing the big gold chain, watch, and ring.
In fact, this watch is not as good as the military watch issued by their base. Military watches not only have a luminous function, but also have a compass, are waterproof and wear-resistant.
Compared with these luxury brand watches, they look good, but their practicality is not as good as military watches.
"Brother Tiezi, eldest brother asked you to come back and find him." Li Yuan retracted his gaze and said to Li Tie.
Li Tie nodded and said, "Oh, okay, then I'll leave the counting work to you."
"OK."
As Li Yuan led his men to count, they gradually figured out this batch of things.
50 tons of 99% pure gold.
There are nearly 10,000 pairs of jewelry such as necklaces, bracelets, earrings, rings, etc. There are no specific calculations. They will all be put together later. The materials of these jewelry are usually gold, platinum, and silver. Gems etc.
In addition, there are other crystal jewelry, silver products, handmade jewelry, and leather jewelry, which total almost two tons.
There are many handmade jewelry, many of which are extremely exquisite, such as thorns, braids, etc., and the craftsmanship is superb.
There are also some leather accessories, leather jackets, leather bags...
I was really tired at the end, so I simply divided them into categories, put them together directly, and marked the weight.
Just like wholesale clothes in Yiwu before the end of the world, it is calculated based on the number of kilograms and taels.
...
Oil City.
Six Fingers excitedly returned to Building No. 18 in the residential area with the permission letter stamped with the seal of Oil City.
As soon as he entered the door, he raised the piece of paper in his hand high.
"Brothers, the arena competition license has been obtained! From now on, we can hold arena matches in the trading market."
One word stirs up a thousand waves.
"Great, this way we have another way to make money."
"Yes, in the arena competition, we can also open a casino and bet on who wins and who loses!"
"marvelous!"
Nowadays, many forces in the trading market are thinking of ways to earn points.
Some forces take advantage of their own conditions. For example, Xie Dongming and his team, who are particularly good at hunting and setting traps, often go out hunting to catch prey and return to the trading market to sell fresh meat.
Back and forth, once I set up a stall selling barbecue in the business district of the trading market, I unexpectedly found that the points I gained were more than those earned by simply selling animal meat.
So they divided into two groups, some went hunting and obtained animal carcasses, and some set up stalls in the commercial district to sell barbecue. After a week of business, they accumulated a certain amount of points and switched from shotgun to cannon.
I actually rented a storefront room in the business district and turned it from a stall to a fixed place. I even had my own point scanning machine, so I no longer had to use another merchant's.
In addition, companies like Tingfenglou earn points by selling some colorful things to relieve the pressure of the survivors who are under great pressure in the apocalypse.
Or like the people from the Water Dragon Club, they open a bar and sell drinks.
There are also a large number of forces, like mercenaries, who receive various tasks from the mission hall in Oil City. After completing them, they receive points and then use the points to exchange for food.
.....
Everyone has different ways of living, but they always have their own way out.
Fat Tiger took the piece of paper from Liu Finger's hand and glanced at it carefully from top to bottom.
His brows furrowed.
"The people in this oil city charge too much, 70% of the profit. They don't have to do anything to get 70% of the profit."
"And they will also send supervisors to supervise us, so..."
"There are many subsidiary regulations and rules, especially this one: They have priority in selecting those powerful fighters. What are they going to do?"
Huo Shi came over and after seeing the contract, he thought:
"They probably want to select some strong people from the arena competition to join their team. No wonder... no wonder Oil City agreed to let us hold the arena competition.
In fact, we want to borrow our hands to set up a pond so that they can catch fish of the right size from this pond to meet their needs."
Liu Zhi sat on the chair. After hearing the discussions and complaints among his men, he smiled and shook his head.
"What do you know? On this site, the most important thing is safe space and people. If people from Oil City don't hold shares, I wouldn't dare to do this!"
"Without the platform they provide as a trading market, we wouldn't be able to compete in the arena competition in our lifetime. At least we still have 30% profit, which is enough!"
Nobita, who had been sitting in the corner, nodded thoughtfully and asked:
"Boss, let's make arrangements as soon as possible. Has he approved a place for us?"
Liuzhi said with a smile on his face, "Approved, but not in the main block of the commercial district, but behind the building of the Water Dragon Club in the main block."
"1,000 square meters, a huge area! The rent is free. Look at the Water Dragon Club, they still have to pay rent. We don't have to pay rent now."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After thinking about it carefully, everyone suddenly felt that it was not difficult to accept 70% of the profits being handed over to Oil City.
If nothing else, it saves money on rent.
You must know how difficult it is to secure a place of thousands of square meters in a place like the trading market.
Even the Water Dragon Club Bar on the main commercial street has only 1,000 square meters in five floors.
The place they got is still free!
Fat Tiger looked excited and said to Six Fingers:
"Boss, let's quickly decorate it. How about we build an iron cage, a ring, and so on."
Liuzhi frowned and said:
"For the iron cage, we have to find a way to get some steel frame structure from outside and polish it ourselves, or we can buy some steel from Oil City. As for the arena... Let the people from the Embroidery Club help us build an all-wood arena.
..”
"Okay, as for other decorations, we will look at the decorations ourselves. Anyway, it must have a passionate and exciting atmosphere."
"As for publicity..."
"Nobita, starting tomorrow, you will go to the trading market Wengcheng to set up a roll-up banner with our tournament information written on it."
Nobita quickly asked: "What information?"
"Forehead....."
Liuzhi thought for a while and then said:
"The first trading fair arena!"
"The slogan is called: A competition of blood and courage, only those who love to fight will win!"
"Prize for first place: 50 points."
"Prize for second place: 30 points."
"Third place prize: 10 points."
Liuzhi thought, raised his head and explained to everyone carefully,
"I've thought about the profit model of the arena competition. Now let's build up the excitement. We won't charge tickets for the time being. But you can bet on winning or losing. We will be the banker."
"In addition, try to promote it as much as possible and try to do a good job in the first arena match."
.....
Fat Tiger asked with a troubled face: "50 points, isn't that too much? That's 50 kilograms of food. If you save some, it's enough to feed one person for three or four months."
He waved his six-fingered hand and said excitedly:
"No, there must be brave men under the heavy reward. How can we attract more people to participate if we don't have many points?"
"Don't worry, everyone, you can't fight in the trading market. The gladiatorial arena is a serious place for fighting, and those with itchy hands and feet will always participate.
There is no shortage of gamblers in the last days. As long as they come to gamble, it won't be too easy for us to make back our costs."
"The layout is bigger!"
While saying this, Liu Zhi glanced at Black Hand who was squatting by the door and picking his teeth from time to time.
Black Hand's skills are the strongest he has ever seen in his life.
This is also the reason why he wants to host the ring competition. If there is a black hand, he will have the strongest thug.
