Chapter 126: Setting up a stall in front of the stronghold
The Demon City stronghold is divided into the inner city and the outer city.
The outer perimeter of the outer city is protected by a combination of wooden stakes and iron fences, which seems to have a certain protective effect.
But in fact, once a large number of zombies rush in, this line of defense is basically useless.
The forward sentry post is located quite far away, on a high observation tower, from which one can see very far away.
Once zombies appear, the sentry on the watchtower will immediately notify the team in the city to respond.
It can also give the survivors in the outer city some time to respond.
The inner city is really amazing. We can’t see what’s inside for now, but the most eye-catching thing is the city wall!
That’s right, there are ancient-style city walls here.
From a distance, the height of the city wall is about seven or eight meters, and you can also see workers working on it.
The materials for the city wall were all dismantled from abandoned buildings. There are enough materials to build a circle of city walls.
But the amount of work involved is absolutely terrifying.
When the Ares was still a few kilometers away from the stronghold, it was discovered by the stronghold's sentry.
When the sentry spotted the Ares through the telescope, he rubbed his eyes first.
I looked at it several times to make sure I wasn't seeing things.
There was indeed a bus approaching the base!
After being stunned for a moment, the sentry quickly climbed down from the observation tower, mounted his bicycle and rushed into the city.
It would have been convenient to blow the whistle or fire a gun.
However, the stronghold also has rules. Unless there are zombies attacking, the sentries are not allowed to fire warning shots.
That would cause confusion among the survivors, and once the survivors are confused, many unexpected accidents would occur.
The Ares soon arrived outside the outer city fence.
It immediately attracted the attention of countless survivors on the periphery.
The survivors all opened their eyes wide and looked at the Ares with surprise and curiosity.
They saw a startable vehicle again.
They had seen a Dongfeng Mengshi some time ago, which had already shocked them once.
I know that car is the vehicle of the leader of the United Front.
There is another big bus coming this time. I wonder who the big shots are?
A year ago, if they had seen such a shabby bus, they wouldn't even have been interested in taking a second look at it.
But at this moment, everyone was very envious.
"You see there are words on the car, mobile grain trader?"
"What do you mean? Are you selling food?"
"Stop talking nonsense. What kind of world is this? Who would sell their food?"
"Even if we really sell it, what can we use to buy it? Generally, good things require crystal cores. I wonder if the currency of our base is easy to use?"
As the survivors pointed and talked, the bus door opened with a creaking sound.
Jingtian and his group jumped out of the car with a dog.
Liu Changshui, who was behind the car, also approached with hesitation.
"Wow, they are dressed so cleanly!"
"The little girl is so clean and beautiful."
"Why are there only a few of you? Aren't you afraid of being robbed?"
The survivors approached the guardrail and looked at the people getting on and off the Ares, and there was another discussion.
Yuwen Shang and Wang Lian had once been staff members of this stronghold, so they were naturally very familiar with the situation here.
However, after the two got off the car, they first turned around and looked at the Ares.
Even though Jingtian had said before getting on the car that the Ares had camouflage capabilities.
However, after seeing such a huge change in the Ares, it took them a while to come back to their senses.
"Okay, let's proceed according to the plan and set up stalls to sell goods. I hope there won't be any blind people like us. We are doing business with good intentions!" Jingtian said to the people around him.
Originally, Jingtian could have asked Yuwen Shang to find Zhang Jian.
However, Jingtian was stubborn and wanted to see Zhang Jian first.
Then give him a big surprise.
"Jingtian, what are you going to do?" Liu Changshui looked confused.
"We want to do business, you can do whatever you want." Jingtian responded to Liu Changshui perfunctorily.
Then Jingtian waved towards the God of War.
As the people around stared in shock, bags of food floated out of the truck in a line.
First came the food, then came the oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, sausages, fresh pork...
In a blink of an eye, a large pile of them appeared in front of them.
boom!
The survivors inside the guardrail exploded.
First of all, Jingtian’s method of controlling objects is so shocking.
Although everyone knows that people with special abilities are very powerful nowadays.
But I've never heard of anyone with such abilities having such means.
Then came the food supplies.
The contents of the bag could not be seen, but the oil, salt, sausages and meat were clearly visible.
The most important thing is fresh meat!
A moment later.
The entire area was filled with various sounds of swallowing saliva.
Many people even started to get red eyes.
He forgot about Jingtian's powerful methods, opened the guardrail gate and rushed over.
Bang!
Yuwen Shang fired a shot directly into the air, then turned the gun around and pointed it at the survivors.
"Whoever dares to have any evil intentions, I will not spare you any mercy with my bullets!" Yu Wenshang said coldly.
Although the situation of the survivors is pitiful.
However, if someone really dares to step forward and snatch it, Yuwen Shang will definitely not show mercy.
Jingtian had given a strict order about this before .
No matter who it is, if they dare to rob, they will be killed on the spot!
"Don't worry, everyone. These things are ready to be sold to you. The price is clearly marked. As long as you can produce the crystal cores, you can have as many as you want!"
Jingtian stood up and spoke with a faint smile on his face.
Speaking of which, Jingtian actually enjoys this feeling.
During the prosperous times, Jingtian also set up a small stall to earn a living.
Once someone comes forward to buy my goods and I calculate the profit I make from the transaction, I feel a special sense of accomplishment at that moment.
At this time, the little girl Tong Yue ran back to the car.
After a while, he took down a piece of lettering and returned, placing the lettering in front of the stall.
The price of the goods is marked on the sign.
"White rice, 2 taels of level 1 crystal core, half a catty of level 2 crystal core, 1 catty of level 3 crystal core, 2 catties of level 4, 4 catties of level 5, and so on..."
Jingtian thought that as soon as the price was announced, these people would rush forward to buy it.
After waiting for a while, no one came forward.
"Ahem...Sir, I forgot to tell you one thing. It is impossible for the survivors to obtain the crystal core."
Wang Lian reacted quickly and explained to Jingtian with a hint of embarrassment.
"Ah? Don't they usually trade with each other?" Jingtian was a little dumbfounded.
If these survivors do not have the ability to trade, how can they complete their mission?
"Of course there are transactions, but the transactions within the base are generally conducted in another currency, which may be of no use to you." Wang Lian said with a hint of embarrassment.
