“Second brother, I’m almost exhausted! My belly is full of water. I’m so hungry. I can eat a cow now.”
“Stop shouting. The supply office won’t give you another one if you shout.”
“What are you doing?”
Hu Xiaojie looked surprised when he saw the dressed-up man’s dog-like dick.
If he remembered correctly, that suit was what he wore when he was preparing to get married.
but······
It’s hard to describe in one word.
That’s a long story.
Anyway, this suit has been kept at the bottom of the box, but no one can touch it.
Even his eldest niece, whom he loves dearly, cannot touch her!
Not to mention wearing it.
Are you crazy today?
Is he finally hungry?
Are you so hungry that you have a nervous breakdown?
“Get up quickly and put on this dress!”
“Ah? I don’t want it! It’s minus fifty or sixty degrees outside. I’d better take a nap. This can also reduce consumption. I can save this one for Tangtang today and let her take a look at my little one. Uncle can’t help me!”
“Have you heard? Xingchen is here and is setting up the recruitment venue.”
“I’ve known it for a long time, good guy! Five to six hundred people are here.”
“Stars? What the hell? What are you doing?”
“What are you talking about! Go back and get ready. Whether you can turn over depends on this time.”
Immediately, every family rummaged through the boxes and cabinets and began to organize the whole family.
As long as one person can apply for the job, then the whole family has hope of survival.
No exaggeration at all.
Xingchen now has this ability.
Since the advent of maglev vehicles, the Ministry of Trade has extended its tentacles to three major underground cities.
Helping people haul goods everywhere in the ice and snow, especially coal, food and other important survival supplies, one can imagine how huge the profits are.
The freight division earns enough profits to support hundreds of thousands of people.
certainly.
Just provide cockroach cream.
This is why Chu Feng dared to further open up trade to town-level shelters before his own breeding farms were developed.
The group had just sat down.
Mayor Li immediately complained:
“Director Liu, Captain Hong, you don’t know how hard our Lijia Town is…”
“It turns out that our shelter only has 50,143 people. This is the maximum population capacity of the entire town. If there are any more, we will starve. The breeding farm can only feed so many people, and one more person will not be enough!”
“Hey…” Mayor Li let out a long sigh.
“But the villages below can no longer hold on. If we don’t accept them, they will have no choice but to wait to die.”
“Just like that, it snowballed and grew bigger and bigger. Now the whole town has a population of 110,000 people, which has doubled!”
“The difficulty of raising so many people has not only doubled, it has increased exponentially. It’s too difficult…”
The deputy mayor also said at this time:
“Yeah, yeah, it’s so hard.”
“Especially in this extremely cold weather, cars can’t get on the road. He’an County is backed by a coal mine. There is coal, but it can’t be transported!”
“The materials transported by a cart relying only on manpower are pitiful.”
“That’s right!” the director of the Materials Department relayed.
“You have also seen along the way that the boiler in our shelter is almost extinguished, and the entire room is only maintained at -55°C.”
“The breeding area is even worse. Even if all the electricity is sent there, it is not enough to maintain the temperature. The monthly output is only 20% of the normal. The temperature is too low. Not to mention breeding, the little bugs have nothing to eat. With so much strength, he’s so weak that he’s motionless!”
“Even if we include the county’s monthly subsidy, there are 110,897 people, and each person only gets a tube of cockroach cream per day.”
“It’s not enough to eat at all.”
Not enough to eat.
The water here is deep.
Li Dafu knew this very well.
The default one for town-level shelters actually only has 13 of the normal one for county-level and above bases.
What does that mean?
Usually a person needs to take 150 grams of cockroach cream + a small amount of synthetic vitamins a day, which is normal.
But the town-level shelter only has 13 bottles of cockroach cream, just 50 grams.
Don’t even think about synthetic vitamins.
You know why.
On the one hand, raw materials are scarce and expensive and cannot be afforded.
On the other hand, we focus on the future. The population must be reduced because we cannot feed so many people.
If we hold on to death, we can only die together in the end.
All this is a helpless move.
Li Dafu understands, but that doesn’t mean he can accept it.
However, his power is too small and he is powerless.
Fortunately, my city lord is a capable man and is already taking action.
He believes that Xingchen will be able to help more people in the future.
To this end, he is also contributing his own meager strength.
I hope the Dragon Kingdom can survive this difficulty.
He had already seen the tricks played by the three of them. They were just complaining and asking for more trade share.
But it’s obvious that he wants to eat shit.
Every shelter is having a hard time.
The eldest brother is no better than the second brother!
If there is more here, someone is bound to have to make sacrifices.
He could only level the bowl of water as much as possible so that everyone could drink.
Rain and dew are both there, waiting for a miracle!
This is what the city lord said.
He kept it in mind and didn’t dare to relax at all.
After gathering his emotions and putting down the teacup in his hand, Liu Dafu said in a deep voice:
“Mayor Li, I understand your difficulties very well. I came from the Lianhua Town Shelter. I understand the hardships in our small shelter.”
“But the rules are the rules, and I’m just an errand boy. The rules of the transaction have long been set as ironclad rules. Unless our city lord is here, no one can change them. You don’t want me to go back and fail to pay my job, right?”
“Then how did the deal happen?” Mayor Li asked helplessly.
What others have said is so clear.
It’s not easy for him to be entangled anymore.
Everything will wait and see.
Can a living person suffocate to death?
This is just a preliminary investigation. People from the Long Kingdom still have to go to the table to decide.
Moreover.
There are various trading rules spread among the people.
Which one is true and which one is false?
He couldn’t figure it out either.
He was quite curious about this.
Liu Dafu immediately said:
“First of all, regarding recruitment matters, our Xingchen has a subsidy statement, you can take a look.”
The accompanying staff immediately delivered documents to the senior officials of Lijia Town present.
“Ten sticks per person? Big or small?”
“Does it count as a child?”
“Isn’t this selling people?” The voice became lower and lower.
“Everyone, everyone we take away from Lijia Town, regardless of gender, young or old, will be subsidized with 10 sticks of 150 grams of mid-range cockroach cream.”
Looking at a certain person, Liu Dafu continued in a deep voice:
“This has nothing to do with business, it is just a little thought from our city lord. Thank you for your hard work. We, Xingchen, will take over the next step. I hope that all the major shelters in Dragon Kingdom can survive this crisis safely. Difficulties.”
“Okay! City Lord Chu, you are so impressive!”
“Director Liu said it well, only unity can we go further!”
“That’s right, that’s right. Since you stars have the strength to spare, we should let him go.”
“Are you going to take away everything you like?” Director Qin asked with narrowed eyes.
Liu Dafu looked at the uniform on this man, and it was obvious that he was holding the barrel of a gun.
However, he was not timid and said truthfully:
“We only recruit those you are willing to let go.”
Chu Feng didn’t like the talents in the town shelter at all.
Recruiting people is just to fill the shelter’s population vacancies.
Therefore.
He didn’t even want to get himself into any more trouble.
Recruiting only those who are willing to let you go is the best way to avoid it.
As for giving materials, it is purely inducement.
Not every base executive is so easy to talk to, and some even have dark hearts. They would rather let the meat rot in their own pot than share it.
In the apocalypse, population is also capital, even a reserve of two-legged sheep.
After discussing the recruitment details, Liu Dafu breathed a sigh of relief and continued:
“Everyone, the next step is about trade matters.”
Suddenly, everyone was sitting upright, waiting for Liu Dafu to continue.
“We, Xingchen, are purchasing materials from all surrounding town-level shelters, including steel, cement, sand and gravel, etc., and we will settle in kind.”
“As for the specific transaction methods, prices, etc., they are all detailed in the transaction list.”
Instantly.
There was only the sound of rustling books in the whole office.
This transaction list contains a lot of supplies, including food and clothing, everything you need!
“There are restrictions.”
Mayor Li murmured.
Take food for example.
According to the introduction of this list, their Lijia Town can only exchange food for 10% of the population, which is 10,000 mid-range cockroach creams per day.
In fact, quite a few.
Turned into their packaging, there are 30,000 pieces.
He was very satisfied with the food rations for 13 people for nothing.
The only thing that bothered him was that he could only replace it for a week at most.
Regardless of whether I finish eating or not, I can only wait until next week to change.
The same goes for other supplies.
Anyway, I don’t give you a chance to hoard supplies.
Especially the food.
There are many rules and regulations.
but······
Xingchen can provide express delivery service, which solves one of his worries.
He was really fed up with the rickshaws.
too slow.
no way.
The car won’t start.
There are not enough cattle and horses.
We can only rely on human power to pull and pull!
When I saw that there were apples, strawberries and other fruits on the list, there were even rice fish for exchange.
He was completely stunned.
Are we playing the same shelter survival game?
Why is the gap so big?
No matter how small I am, how can I be said to be an official base?
If I remember correctly, Xingchen seems to be… a private sanctuary, right?
So what did Mr. Chu do?
For a moment, Mayor Li’s head was filled with questions.
Although these items are scarce and expensive.
Just one fish requires 10 tons of scrap metal.
So does Apple.
But this is fresh food.
The stars are so rich.
At this moment, he wanted to pile up his picks and follow him over there.
Look at what others can eat every day, but what about yourself?
As the leader of a town.
The top leader of the shelter and the undisputed first dignitary.
But I only have two taels of white rice and some canned food every day.
Don’t even think about fresh food!
“Isn’t it a fairyland on earth?”
This is the common sentiment of everyone after reading the list.
“Brother Feng, this is the situation.”
“That’s it.”
Shaking the red wine glass, Qin Feng struggled with his expression.
For a while.
Then he said dejectedly:
“Hey…forget it, we can’t chew this hard bone. If we swallow it hard, it might choke us to death. It’s not worth it!”
“Ah! Then…”
Looking at Ma Zai with a disappointed look on his face, Qin Feng said angrily:
“I’m tired of playing with this woman, so I’ll reward you.”
After hugging the beauty, Ma Zai said happily: “Thank you, Brother Feng, thank you, Brother Feng!”
After nodding and bowing, he grabbed the woman and disappeared in a flash.
