Reborn in the end of the world, I scavenged in the empty city and bought for free
Chapter 184 Everyone has their own agenda
Yan Qiang recently obtained 300 cartons of cigarettes and one ton of refined flour from a certain gang outside the base. He planned to sell them at a high price inside the base, so he sent people out to pick up the goods early in the morning.
"Who dares to intercept our goods?" the deputy stood up and asked angrily.
The young man came here on a bicycle. He rode dozens of kilometers from the door and almost broke his legs. He was still panting, but when he thought of the people who intercepted the goods, his face turned pale, so he could only stammer, "Yes, it's Huang Tianshao's people."
Yan Qiang fiercely crushed the cigarette butt into the wine glass, a sinister light flashed in his eyes, and he did not respond immediately.
The deputy murmured "Pah" in a low voice, still a little angry, "Brother Qiang, it is impossible for Huang Tianshao not to know that these goods belong to us. Our car has always been marked. What does it mean that he is intercepting our goods now?"
The people playing cards also restrained themselves at this moment. Seeing that their boss' mood was changeable, they dared not play around anymore.
"Huang Tian Shao has been acting quite recklessly lately, relying on his uncle being the second-in-command of the base. I heard that he has been recruiting a group of civilian hunters. It seems that he is planning to hunt down a Class A mutant beast and broadcast it live. The female hunter Xu Liuzhen, who has been on TV frequently and gained a lot of fans recently, seems to be Huang Tian Shao's latest contract."
"Fuck, just because it's Huang Shaotian, do we have to suffer in silence this time? That batch of goods is worth hundreds of thousands of points." Another member cursed.
At this moment, everyone's eyes could only fall on Yan Qiang.
Yan Qiang pointed at the coffee table and raised his head. His cloudy eyes made people feel creepy when he looked at people. Then he asked in a gloomy tone: "How many days are left until the next beast tide?"
The subordinate immediately replied: "Next Friday, there are still about six days left."
"How many A-level mutant beasts will appear in this beast tide?"
The subordinates quickly took out their mobile phones to check the information released by the official platform of the base. Although the beast tide that will appear in "Heng County" in the northeast of the outer restricted area of the base next week is only a small-scale beast tide, there is a high probability that A-level mutant beasts will appear, because the several mutant beasts that have appeared before have all appeared in this county.
"The base said there were at least two, and at least ten B-level mutants. In addition, Huang Shaotian announced on their own platform that he would hunt down at least one A-level mutant and three B-level mutants."
Huang Shaotian has signed contracts with dozens of civilian hunters, including some well-known bounty hunters in the base. In addition, he has a strong background and a lot of hot weapons in his hands, so he regards the next beast tide as the best opportunity to make money and "create stars".
Even Yan Qiang was not willing to confront a real playboy like Huang Shaotian at this moment. After all, those few people were the ones who truly held power in the base. He would have to rely on these big men in the future, so naturally he could not go against Huang Shaotian.
But Yan Qiang was unwilling to see his goods being taken away for nothing, so a vicious plan sprouted in his mind.
"In the next hunting activity, find a way to trip up Huang Shaotian. It's normal to get injured even in such an official activity, right? Since Huang Shaotian has the guts to go looking for A-level mutant beasts, then it's nothing strange to have broken arms and legs. After all, being able to survive is the most important thing." Yan Qiang leaned back on the sofa, speaking in a very normal tone, as if he was talking about something very normal.
The younger brother beside him understood immediately, and smiled arrogantly, "Brother Qiang is really good. This is called shifting the blame to the mutant beast. Let Huang Tianshao's grandson be the bait. Let his people fight with the mutant beast first, and when their fighting power is exhausted, we will take action..."
"What if Huang Tianshao is broadcasting live at that time? We can't do anything, right?" Some people were also worried that if Huang Tianshao wanted to create momentum and planned to broadcast a live broadcast, it would be difficult to do anything under the eyes of hundreds of thousands of people.
Another member laughed and interrupted: "That's not easy. We have Engineer Liu here. His ability can disrupt all network communications. At least he can buy us 20 minutes."
The person named immediately smiled and nodded, "I can directly conduct wireless interference with the aerial photography drone, so that's not a problem."
A satisfied smile appeared on Yan Qiang's lips, and his eyes fell on the fuel tank in front of him. He said, "Continue to investigate the person who brought the goods to the trading center. No matter what, he must have other goods. If we can monopolize this line, even Huang Tianshao will have to give us three points in the future."

Villa Area Building G
The three-story white villa is brightly lit at this moment. This villa and another one about ten meters away are currently private properties allocated by the base to the hunting team.
Most of the team members live in this small white villa.
Everyone had just held a simple meeting, and Ye Ziqiu and Xuyang took out tonight's dinner from the kitchen.
Several people were waiting for dinner at the table. The living room was well lit, unlike the dim lights in every household outside the base. Not only were the lights on indoors, but there was also a street light every thirty meters in the small garden outside the villa. There was a large generator in the inner circle and sufficient energy, so there was no need to worry about water and electricity issues at all.
Ye Ziqiu simply heated up the food in the refrigerator, including canned meat and potato stew, fried pork chops, crispy fried sweet potato chips, pork vermicelli buns, and the last but one extremely precious cold dish, Qianlong cabbage.
There is a state-controlled freezer in the base. The meat in it can supply the entire base for more than ten years. In addition, some mutant beasts can be eaten. Therefore, the most scarce thing in the apocalypse is fresh fruits and vegetables. Currently, the base has only cultivated heat-resistant and cold-resistant potatoes and sweet potatoes. There are only a small amount of tomatoes, cabbage, winter melon, pumpkin, etc. Other green leafy vegetables are basically rare. Even if they are available, only a very small number of powerful people can afford them, and they are still purchased in limited quantities.
Liu Hun picked up a bun, took a bite and frowned, but still ate it all. The bun was not made of refined flour. Although they tried to engage in planting industry in the base after the apocalypse, due to the soil and climate, the wheat grown not only had poor yield, but also did not taste as good as the wheat before the apocalypse. For this reason, the refined flour sold in the trading center is generally divided into those grown before the apocalypse and those grown after the apocalypse. The refined flour before the apocalypse can be sold at a 20% higher price if it is not infested with insects and is well packaged.
Geng Zimo also picked up a piece of pork chop, but he was not picky. After all, before joining the hunter team, their lives were not as good as they are now.
The members of the hunter team basically have no other relatives in the apocalypse. The apocalypse has taken away their support and family, but everyone is strong physically and mentally and has not succumbed to the harsh environment.
Everyone was eating when suddenly the doorbell rang. Ye Ziqiu's temple began to throb.
Liu Hun beside him sneered, "It's the eldest daughter of the Qiao family again. She has been pestering our boss for several days in a row."
The youngest, Xu Qingzhi, took the initiative to open the door. After all, they couldn't just leave people standing outside.
After the door opened, a girl in her early twenties wearing a white dress and a ponytail came in holding a bamboo basket. Her eyes passed through Xu Qingzhi and fell on the dining table. When she saw Chen Yanxi, who was not wearing a mask because he was eating, her eyes sparkled with admiration, and she whispered, "I made some snacks at home and couldn't finish them, so I brought them over for you to try."
Xu Qingzhi did not let the young lady in immediately. She could only pretend to be polite, but her tone was polite. "Miss Qiao, we are having dinner right now. I don't think you can eat these snacks, so you should take them back."
Qiao Shanshan immediately frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "Then it can be dessert after dinner. I can take it in myself."
Qiao Shanshan is the daughter of the chief of the base guard team, who is equivalent to the fourth-in-command of the base. This minister was an officer before the end of the world, and he only has Qiao Shanshan as his daughter, so he is naturally very doting on her. Qiao Shanshan's mother has a relationship with the Huang family, so Qiao Shanshan is very clear about her position in the base. This usually arrogant young lady fell in love with Chen Yanxi at first sight after catching a glimpse of him without a mask at a dinner party, and immediately began to pursue him passionately.
Although Chen Yanxi has refused many times, this lady still refuses to give up. It seems that as long as Chen Yanxi remains unmarried, Qiao Shanshan will never give up.
In fact, at the beginning the team members also felt that it would not be a bad thing if the two of them could be together. After all, Qiao Shanshan was beautiful and came from a noble family. The two of them would be a strong combination. But in the end, love is the key. In addition, everyone has always known that the captain has a "white moonlight" in his heart, and it seems that he has kept it in his heart since before the end of the world.
However, because of Qiao Shanshan's repeated nagging, the other team members gradually felt that this young lady had lost her mind and even found her annoying.
Xu Qingzhi still stood in front of Qiao Shanshan. Qiao Shanshan raised her eyebrows slightly and glanced at Xu Qingzhi, "Get out of my way!"
Liu Hun knew that Xu Qingzhi couldn't stop the young lady, so he swallowed the last bite of the bun and walked over carelessly. After looking her up and down, he smiled and said, "Miss Qiao, our boss told you last time to have less contact with him. He doesn't like your type."
Qiao Shanshan puffed her cheeks, clenched the basket in her hands, and forced a smile: "How do you know he doesn't like me? Besides, feelings need to be cultivated. I am confident that he can like me."
"Impossible, impossible. Our boss has someone in love. You'd better give up this idea." Liu Hun waved his hands with an amused look on his face.
Qiao Shanshan gritted her teeth, the smile on her face gradually disappeared, "I don't believe it. If he has someone he likes, how come I have never seen him? Also, being with him has more advantages than disadvantages. The Light Chaser is about to arrive at our base soon. He is here for the latest batch of arms. Without my father's support, it will not be easy for you hunters to get the latest batch of products from the research institute. Chen Yanxi, you should think it over carefully."
After she finished speaking, Qiao Shanshan pushed the snack in her hand directly into Xu Qingzhi's arms, and said with a smile: "I, Qiao Shanshan, have never failed to get the person I want."
After seeing Qiao Shanshan finally leave, Liu Hun said with a half-smile: "Boss, I think you can only get rid of this young lady's love brain if you get married this morning."
Chen Yanxi raised his cold and pale chin slightly and looked at him fiercely. Liu Hun quickly kept silent like a quail. After moving his eyes away, he suddenly saw an off-road vehicle parked by the wall of the self-built house opposite and said "Huh".
"Wow, this car is great. It's almost as good as the base commander's Mercedes-Benz."
