Zerg Emperor of the End Times

Chapter 288 Market Town Outside the City
The twilight in the sky dissipated, and the dawn shone the first ray of light between the heaven and the earth. The warm sunlight swept across the dark earth, bringing a glimmer of life to the last days.

Among the reddish clouds illuminated by the morning light, a large and out of place dark cloud slowly descended, covering the land that had just been illuminated by the morning sun, and plunged it into darkness again.

Taking a closer look, this large cloud is actually composed of huge flying monsters.

With a body of 200 meters in size, tentacles [-] meters long, and blood-red eyes all over the body, this monster looks hateful.

And there are as many as a thousand of these monster creatures floating in the sky, forming an overwhelming dark cloud, which makes every mutant beast human being who sees it tremble with fear.

This is naturally Wang Jin's host formation. The host group transported 5 humans and [-] Zerg, set off overnight, and finally arrived near the Lishan base at dawn.

"The Lishan base is better. Apart from its large scale and large population, the Lingnan base can't compare to our Lishan base in other aspects."

On the Air Force One host, He Youxi, who accompanied Wang Jin back, his eyes lit up. There was still a distance between here and Lishan Base, but he couldn't wait any longer.

"I took you to fight, why do you seem to be dissatisfied with traveling?"

Wang Jin sat next to He Youxi. Hearing this, he knocked He Youxi on the head, quite dumbfounded.

"Uncle, Uncle He is disobedient, you should spank him, that's how my mother always spanked me."

Wenwen, who was sitting on Wang Jin's lap with a lollipop in her mouth, made a face and giggled at He Youxi.

With a bitter face, He Youxi repeatedly cupped his hands and begged for mercy: "Little ancestor, spanking is your child's right, but Uncle He is different."

"It's the same!" Wenwen stuck out her little tongue, jumped onto He Youxi, stretched out her little hand and said, "Does Uncle He have something delicious? If so, I'll help you keep it secret and don't spread the news that you were beaten." go out."

"Rainbow candy, you greedy cat, take it and eat it." He Youxi smiled and took out a few rainbow candies.

The senior management of Lishan Base already knew Wenwen's temperament. She was usually disruptive and naughty, but as soon as she was given delicious food, she would immediately become obedient. She was a complete foodie.

"Oh yes!" Wenwen cheered happily, grabbed Skittles in an instant, and ate it happily while sitting next to Wang Jin.

Wang Jin watched two people, one big and one small, quarreling, and it was rare for him to calm down. He looked at all this with a smile on his mouth. Only those who are close to him can make Wang Jin show this smile.

After dismissing Wenwen, He Youxi shook his head and complained: "Brother Wang, isn't that Lingnan base nothing special? I thought they had a population of 80, and the city must be very prosperous. Who knew that these were completely different things. They The base is much worse than our Lishan base.”

"What about their base, it's all ours now." Wang Jin glared at He Youxi and said, "There are too few resources around the Lingnan base, and there are no villages on the plain, resulting in a shortage of goods in the city, and the Lingnan base does not develop and support businesses. , hold all the resources in your hands, there are fewer shops, and there are not many people who have the ability to consume, so it is not surprising that most bases are like this now.”

"There is another reason. Goods need to be circulated. Lingnan Base does not do this, so business will naturally be difficult to develop. Although our Lishan Base is still very crude, there are hosts who continue to trade with Lishan Base to achieve commodity exchange. , that’s why business is so prosperous, otherwise it would have to be discounted.”

"Yeah, Brother Wang is right." He Youxi nodded repeatedly.

When the Ministry of Commerce was established, many people were puzzled, thinking that there is no need to develop commerce in the last days, but now they realize that they are too superficial, and commerce is necessary no matter what.

This not only continuously obtains resources and wealth, but also unites the hearts of survivors and increases their sense of identity with the base.

Wang Jin chatted with He Youxi, time passed quickly.

When the host group approached the Lishan base, Wang Jin's heart suddenly moved, his expression changed slightly, and he muttered to himself: "The development is really fast, and the scale is already so large."

"Brother Wang, what are you talking about?" He Youxi was taken aback, not understanding why Wang Jin was talking to himself.

"The place for the survivors of the Lingnan base has arrived!" Wang Jin smiled mysteriously.

"Anjia, haven't you arrived at the Lishan base yet? Just now there was a message saying that it's still ten kilometers away from the city gate!" He Youxi scratched his head, not understanding why Wang Jin said that.

"Follow me." Wang Jin stood up suddenly, walked to the cabin door with He Youxi, who was confused, controlled Air Force One to open the cabin door, and looked below the host.

At this time, the host group has lowered its height, only a thousand meters above the ground, allowing people to clearly see everything below.

Wooden houses appeared on the ground one after another, and several miles around were filled with wooden houses, forming a huge and extremely simple town.

Although the town is simple and crude, it has good roads, drainage, and public facilities. In the center of the town, there is also a lively market.

The open-air market was crowded with people, not only ordinary survivors, but also a few powerful mutants.

This is the market town that Wang Jin ordered to build for business and trade with Jiang Zhengqing, allowing survivors from both sides to trade freely here.

On the outskirts of the market town, more wooden houses are rising.

10,000+ strong laborers worked hard here, driving logs into the foundation one after another to form a simple house, and then capped it with bamboo strips and thatch, and an extremely simple house appeared.

Because this kind of house is really simple, the construction speed is very fast, and the whole town can see the expander with the naked eye, and the development speed is astonishing.

"Brother Wang! What is this?" He Youxi looked at this scene in surprise.

He has been staying at the Lingnan base all the time, not knowing that Wang Jin built the market.

Now that he hadn't seen him for just a week, a small town had sprung up from the base of the mountain, which made him extremely surprised.

"This is a newly built market town. It is used as a trading place with the underground base. It is also the residence of 60 migrants from the Lingnan base. The Lishan base is only a small county town, but there is not such a big place to accommodate 60 people."

Wang Jin laughed, looking at the rapidly developing market town with a hint of complacency on his face. It is unknown how much tax revenue this market town can provide.

The establishment of a market town is not just for living. When various shops are established and commercially distributed, the huge consumption power of 60 people, coupled with the business driven by trade with the underground base, will definitely bring huge tax revenue to Wang Jin.

"Brother Wang is far-sighted, far-sighted, strategizing, and he came up with such a good solution." He Youxi flattered him and brought out his talent, but the flattery was still the same nasty.

"Haha, stop flattering and go down."

Wang Jin laughed loudly, and the huge host group began to descend slowly.
