Chapter 107: Sichuan Fortress
After entering the Chuancheng Fortress, Zhao Lei and others thanked Li Feng and left. Judging from the happy and comfortable expressions on their faces, they were obviously looking forward to their future life.
After they left, Ma Tianbo began to quickly introduce the current situation of Chuancheng Fortress to Li Feng.
The order in Chuancheng Fortress is slightly better than that in the original Sand City, but only slightly.
According to Ma Tianbo, the entire Chuancheng Fortress has been divided into several areas by walls. The core area, called the inner area, is the most orderly. The people living here are all the former rulers of Chuancheng, as well as the former rulers of the Red Star Republic who fled to Chuancheng from other areas when the disaster broke out. Of course, there are also some former military leaders among them.
These people controlled the army, and thus controlled most of the resources. Therefore, the inner area was still full of lights and wine, and everything remained the same as before the crisis broke out. If there was any difference from before the crisis broke out, it might be that those in power became more unscrupulous, and the lives of ordinary people became less valuable.
People in the inner district were rated as first-class citizens.
In addition to the inner area, there are two outer areas, the middle area and the outer area. Of course, generally speaking, they are called civilian areas and untouchable areas. The civilian areas are inhabited by people who have certain property and strength and can live a relatively peaceful life. Before the crisis broke out, these people were also wealthy or elite, and even many military families. Although the order in the middle area is not as good as that in the inner area, it is relatively peaceful. At least there will be no killings in the streets.
Most people who possess a certain amount of property and status, or have a skill that can be exchanged for food in the end times, live in the central area. They are second-, third-, and fourth-class citizens.
Those living in the untouchable areas are all ordinary refugees, fifth-class citizens, or untouchables.
These refugees escaped the biochemical crisis and fled to the Chuancheng Fortress, but because of their lack of strength, they became the bottom of society. The strong men chose to join the army or the hunting team. The people gathered in the untouchable area were mostly the elderly, women and children, who lived a miserable life with insufficient food and clothing, struggling on the verge of death every day.
Of course, in order to show that the Chuancheng Fortress government "loves the people like its own children", or more importantly, to prevent these refugees from becoming unstable factors and causing riots, the Chuancheng Fortress government set up some food distribution points in the outer areas. As long as they registered, each person could receive a bowl of porridge every day.
Although the porridge couldn't fill one's stomach, it could at least keep one alive. Therefore, many people suppressed their desire to resist and lived here in peace. You know, even if the porridge you got wasn't enough to fill you up, you could always steal from others... As long as you had the strength and your prey was weak enough...
After hearing what Ma Tianbo said, Li Feng was extremely anxious. After entering the Chuancheng Fortress, he immediately dragged him to find Ma Tianbo's cousin.
On the way, Li Feng also revealed his identity to Ma Tianbo.
"I am the mayor of Dawn City under the Salvation Alliance. You'd better behave yourself." Li Feng said coldly to Ma Tianbo, his eyes able to pierce directly into his soul.
After hearing Li Feng's introduction, Ma Tianbo suddenly realized that it was no wonder that this seemingly weak boy was so powerful. It turned out that he was a member of the Savior Alliance. He had heard rumors before that a new Savior Alliance had emerged, and it was full of mutants, and even the Chuancheng Fortress had to give it some ground. And now the Chuancheng Fortress is also cooperating with the Savior Alliance to expand its power.
Li Feng's identity immediately made Ma Tianbo give up other ideas, and he took Li Feng to find his cousin who worked as a clerk in the Personnel Department.
Ma Tianbo had a pass that allowed him to go to the central area , and he was familiar with the guards. With the addition of a few packs of cigarettes handed to him by Li Feng, he had almost no obstacles. After a short while, everyone had found Ma Tianbo's cousin who lived in the central area.
Originally, his cousin was arrogant and ignored Li Feng. After hearing Ma Tianbo's request, he shook his head repeatedly. But when he saw the small bag of candy that Li Feng took out, he immediately flew to the inner area where he worked. He had made up his mind to find the person that Li Feng was looking for as quickly as possible. If Li Feng found the two people through other means, he was not sure whether he would regret it and die.
That's a bag of beautifully wrapped candy!
Although there were a lot of supplies stored in the Chuancheng Fortress, they all belonged to the upper echelons of power. For an ordinary person like him, being able to eat until 70% full every day was already the greatest blessing. He almost forgot when he last tasted candy. Three months ago? Five months ago?
Candies, a luxury item, were worth their weight in gold in the Chuancheng Fortress. He had been wanting to get promoted for a while, and if he had this bag of candies and gave it to his boss, he would definitely be able to achieve his wish.
Therefore, Li Feng, Ma Tianbo and others did not wait in each other's cabin for long. Ma Tianbo's uncle almost sprinted back to his workplace at the speed of a 100-meter sprint, and then ran back at the speed of a 100-meter sprint with the information he had found. The whole process took no more than 20 minutes.
"Check...check...found it...huff...huff..." Ma Tianbo's cousin said while running out of breath.
"Where?" Richemont asked anxiously.
“Sugar…sugar…candy…candy…” the other person said greedily while stretching out his hand.
When Li Feng casually threw the bag of candy into his hand, he said, "Mu Shubo and... and Liu Ling... registered in the outer district's East Third District some time ago. Now... I don't know if they are still there..."
"Let's go!" Li Feng turned around without any hesitation and rushed out with Miao Yang and Shen Yixuan.
Ma Tianbo led the way at a trot, saying as he walked: "Lord City Lord, the outer district is divided into four major districts, east, west, south and north. Each major district is divided into 20 small districts. The place I am most familiar with happens to be the East District. When recruiting members, it is in the East District. The East District 3 is not big, but the children are quite big, with a total of 3,000 to 4,000 people... But now is the time to distribute supplies. If we are lucky, we should be able to find food at the food distribution point..."
Before Ma Tianbo could finish his words, he felt a lightness on the back of his neck. Li Feng had already reached out and lifted him up, heading towards the East Third District like the wind.
Because just now, he saw two old people supporting each other, walking and suddenly collapsed on the side of the road. They were so thin that they looked like two skeletons!
