End of World's Businessman

Chapter 207 'Rescue'

The Union Settlement is the largest settlement on the continent of Europa. The number of survivors reached more than 800 million at the time, but now there are only more than 300 million left.The alliance settlement is located in a relatively remote and hidden military garrison, surrounded by plains and hills, with stretches of farms and pastures. The scenery before the end of the world was quite beautiful and quiet, but now there are only white eyes and raging winds.

The [-]-[-] meter high city wall of the settlement blocks part of the strong wind, but it is still very cold. The messy streets are covered with snow up to the calf everywhere. Except for the houses of the original military garrison in the settlement, there is no place within sight. There are only a few new residential buildings, and the survivors live more in scrambled tents, some of whom have simply built igloos.

The low-slung tent should be built in a sheltered place as much as possible, otherwise the simple door curtain can't block the cold wind at all.However, the shelter from the wind is limited after all, and the tent that had to be set up at the wind outlet was crumbling by the wind and snow.

After someone successfully bought low-priced food from outside the city, many people in the city took their crystal nuclei and abnormal creatures to try their luck outside.But not everyone has crystal nuclei and alien creatures in their hands. Like Lancheng, the alliance has issued virtual electronic currency. The rewards for the corpse hunter task, the salary of ordinary laborers, and some allowances for guards in the city are all based on virtual electronic currency. Currency is used as a reward, and Wu Ye never accepts or accepts such electronic currency.

During the whole morning, the guards had already rejected many people who held electronic currency, some unwilling people were still wandering outside the energy shield, more people returned to the city dejectedly, and some people looked around like crazy. Gates can be exchanged for crystal cores.

A few mutated vultures hovered above the settlement, and occasionally they would swoop down at an extremely fast speed, viciously pecking away a few pieces of corpses that were not restrained in the snow beside the road.

That's right, there are some corpses lying here and there in the snow on both sides of the road. Ever since the heavy snow fell and food became scarcer and the atmosphere in the city became more and more tense, no one deliberately turned over the cold snow for these people. Converge the corpse.

At the beginning, no one collected the corpses, but gradually some people who couldn't stand the hunger secretly cut up these corpses and cooked them at home to satisfy their hunger.For many people, human flesh is a taboo. However, once the rationality breaks through this taboo door, it will gradually form an addiction that cannot be quit.

Wu Ye had seen countless times of zombies eating the living, but this was the first time he saw the living eating the dead—a dozen strong men with strange expressions squatted in the open space by the side of the road, surrounded by a large iron There was a large iron pot on the stove, and the disgusting smell of meat kept overflowing from the pot.They laughed unscrupulously, and ate big mouthfuls of body organs with invisible or recognizable shapes in their hands. The less courageous survivors avoided them far away. However, hunger made some people Those who dared not go forward secretly looked at them from the corner of their eyes and swallowed uncontrollably.

"Fuck, no one cares about eating... meat?" Wu Ye watched a man gnawing on an overcooked heart, and his stomach churns.

Qin Wuhua frowned and sighed: "It seems that the situation of the alliance may be worse than what Ted told us." There is no one to control such rampant cannibalism in the settlement, either the base is completely in chaos, or the settlement The food in the ground has been scarce to the limit, and the high-level officials are unable to intervene and can only let it develop.

The case of the Union colony should be in the latter category.

Wu Ye looked around and found that there were only a handful of people blatantly eating human flesh on the side of the road, but there were still people quietly picking it up in the snow, and the cold light reflected occasionally was the knives and daggers they used to secretly cut flesh.

In Wu Ye's cognition, Westerners pay more attention to religious beliefs, and the act of cannibalism seems to them to be an act of a devil. After death, they will fall into purgatory forever and never be redeemed.But they still did it. It is foreseeable that if there are no effective measures, more people will join their ranks.

Maybe for those people, they are already walking in hell alive, how can they go to heaven after death?

From the numbness, despair and madness of those people, Wu Ye could clearly see that their faith had collapsed, and the Father God in their hearts had died.If you can't find salvation, you will completely exile yourself.

Looking around, Wu Ye's heart became heavier when he saw those old people and children who were dying and shivering in the corner.

Qin Wuhua saw Wu Ye's face in his eyes, patted him on the head tenderly, and comforted him: "Don't think too much, just believe that everything will be fine."

It was rare for Wu Ye not to slap his hand away, and responded with a muffled voice: "Yes."

After they entered the city, they walked for a few minutes. After receiving the news, General Paul sent a special car to pick them up.

After the visitor welcomed them into the car, they were quickly sent to a meeting room in the alliance settlement.

General Paul is over fifty years old, big and strong, with deep and tough facial features unique to Europeans. He is not handsome, but his strong aura will definitely make you spot him in the crowd.General Paul awakened his abilities late, and he had to devote all his attention to managing the affairs of the settlement. The time to practice abilities was very limited. Although he had inexhaustible crystal nuclei, he had just stepped into the fourth-level threshold of the power system.

Three other well-informed high-level officials also arrived early.

Locke was a little older than General Paul. He was nearly sixty years old. Before the end of the world, he was a very famous consortium boss in the business circle. He was rich and powerful.However, these proud fortunes were all wiped out by a catastrophe of the end of the world, and he was almost pushed into the crowd of zombies by his well-paid bodyguards.But after he settled down, he relied on his clever mind and a batch of supplies hidden before the end of the world to quickly amass wealth in the alliance settlements, gathering power second only to General Paul.

Monsen is nearly fifty years old, and he served as the mayor before the end of the world. What he is best at is to win over the hearts of the people. He has mastered the "painting of cakes" of politicians. With a gentleman-like face, he lives in the alliance The land is booming, and the popularity rate is very low.

Diss is only 24 years old, he is the youngest of the four high-level executives, and he is also the most grassroots one. He can get to where he is today, entirely due to his abilities.He is now the fifth-order peak power user of the gold system, and he is also one of the best masters in the alliance settlements, and he has gathered a considerable number of power users under his command.Diss knew that he would never be able to compete with the other three old foxes in IQ, so he handed an olive branch to General Paul early on and became an ally with him.It is precisely because of Diss' refuge that General Paul has been sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, firmly occupying the position of the first person in charge of the alliance settlement.

Not to be outdone, Locke and Monson formed an allied force to check with Paul and Diss.

Of course, no matter how close allies are, there will be times when their interests are inconsistent. Therefore, while the four top leaders are forming alliances in pairs, they are also guarding against each other and doing their own things.

However, the appearance of Wu Ye brought the four of them into an unprecedented unity, at least on the surface. As for what 'repertoire' each has prepared behind the scenes, only they themselves know best.

Before Wu Ye came, he asked Ji Yun to make him a simultaneous translator, and the two parties communicated directly in their native languages ​​without any obstacles.

After some warm greetings, before getting to the point, Wu Ye looked at them with a half-smile and said, "Rescue is no problem, but how far we can go to rescue depends on you."

see us?

The four high-level officials looked at each other, and General Paul wrinkled his resolute face and began to cry: "Wu, you have also seen the situation in our settlements. If there is no rescue, we will definitely not be able to survive this winter. I believe that starting from a humanitarian spirit , you, who are kind, will definitely not stand idly by."

Good guy, he didn't even say a word of money-losing.

Qin Wuhua said expressionlessly: "If it weren't for the spirit of humanitarianism, our city lord would not have appeared here."

Wu Ye smiled and said: "That's right, the decision to rescue is in your hands. It's not easy for everyone now, and we in Lancheng only saved a little supplies in thousands of provinces. If we only consider the humanitarian spirit, our Huaguo There are also settlements that are in the same dire situation as you, and there are settlements on Europa Continent that need more rescue than you, and our supplies are limited, if we only consider humanitarian spirit, why should we look far away?"

When Paul and the others heard Wu Ye mentioning other settlements on the continent of Europa, they immediately felt a sense of crisis. The other two settlements were smaller than theirs, and their situation was worse than theirs, and they needed rescue supplies.They don't doubt what Wu Ye said about the limited supplies. As far as their own situation is concerned, the accumulated food can't last for 20 days. I am afraid that there will be no more supplies.It is said that the other two settlements are about to run out of grain. If Wu Ye is willing to sell grain to them, they will accept no matter how high the price is. If Wu Ye sells grain to others, how can they survive this cold winter?

In any case, Wu Ye cannot be allowed to sell the grain to other people, but in this way, what face do they have to talk about humanitarianism?

The four high-level executives look at me, I look at you, and finally Locke cleared his throat and asked, "Wu, I see that there is a crystal nucleus energy cover in the material transaction list you provided, is it the magical cover outside? Is it really driven by crystal nuclei? Did you bring the real thing?"

"The one outside is just the lowest-level energy shield we have made, and it can only resist the attack of corpse tides below 3000 levels. If your settlement wants, I have energy shields ranging from one million to [-] million levels. The energy shield can not only resist the attacks of zombies and bugs, but also has a very good heat preservation effect. As long as it works properly, the plantation area in your settlement can completely grow food and vegetables this winter, and you don’t have to worry about being destroyed by bugs next year.” Wu Ye said. Turn around, "However, the materials for making energy shields are quite expensive and rare, and we don't have a few spare energy shields in our hands. There are many settlements in Huaguo that order from us, but——"

but what?Not satisfied with the price!

General Paul and the others knew what Wu Ye didn't say, but they were so shy that they could barely afford the price on the material list, but that would almost emptied the settlement's savings, so what about the food? manage?

You can't have both fish and bear's paws.

"We really can't afford the price on the list of supplies." General Paul told the truth, he believed that Wu Ye would not intentionally tease them with their appetites, and he must have some other tricks waiting for them.

"I can understand your difficulties, and I can't bear to watch the survivors freeze to death and starve to death, so I discussed a compromise with Daqin." Wu Ye stopped maliciously.

"What way?" Paul and the others almost pricked up their ears.

"Finance Lease."
