Chapter 92 Arriving at the Border of Jiangcheng
Liang Qiuwen agreed, "The enemy outnumbers us. Old Yuan is right. Let's just consider it as buying some peace!"
Liang Qiuwen and Yuan Rong paid the "protection fee" on behalf of the two families. Liang Qiuwen took a bag of salt and was reluctant to give up the rice and flour, while Yuan Rong took a pack of cigarettes and a salted fish.
In the end times, cigarettes and alcohol are good things for people who have enough supplies. You can even find a way to brew your own alcohol, but cigarettes are gone once you smoke them.
The two men came back quickly with a note in their hands with Qian Guangming's personal seal on it. This note can prove that you have paid protection money.
It seems that Qian Guangming is not a good guy either, he is making money from disasters.
I guess it has something to do with the people at the Jiangcheng Strategic Base. We didn't encounter any zombies along the way.
Even if there were, they were dealt with by the Qian family's mercenaries.
They have grenades and submachine guns and are fully equipped.
"Where did the Qian family get so many firearms?"
After seeing the Qian family's mercenaries eliminate a group of zombies, Zhou Lanxin finally couldn't help but ask.
There is no information about the Qian family in the simulator, but there are indeed many wealthy families before the apocalypse who possessed hot weapons after the apocalypse.
Most of them exchanged for food, while some used their own resources to cooperate with the military.
Of course, there are also illegal channels to obtain...
But, it’s the end of the world, who cares?
Several main urban areas in Jiangcheng have completely become a paradise for zombies. To get to Jiangnan Middle School, you have to take a long detour. When there are still more than ten kilometers to the destination, there are more and more survivors on foot, and from time to time you can encounter military and police officers armed with hot weapons.
"This road should have been cleared specifically to facilitate the survivors' journey to the shelter."
When the convoy arrived at a gas station, it stopped. A simple shantytown was built there, with many roadblocks set up on both sides of the road and many military and police officers guarding the area.
Soon, a staff member came and knocked on the car window.
"We need to conduct the first inspection ahead. Please get off the bus with your valuables and line up with your family."
The first round of inspection is to determine whether anyone in the convoy has been bitten or scratched by zombies.
There are two teams in total, separated by men and women, and the number of people in the women's team is obviously half that of the men's team.
At the front of the team were two tables placed side by side, where male and female soldiers in camouflage uniforms sat. Behind them was a tent that could only accommodate two people.
As soon as we lined up, we heard a shouting noise from the front.
"I'm Qian Duoduo, the daughter of Liaocheng's richest man. Why should I queue up with them?"
She is a girl dressed in designer clothes.
People around began to whisper.
"It's the end of the world, why are you still acting like a spoiled brat?"
"That's right, everyone is the same when facing zombies."
Qian Duoduo was wearing high heels and became even angrier when she saw that the female soldier in front of her completely ignored her.
"What's your attitude? Didn't you hear me?"
The female soldier still looked upright and incorruptible. "Ms. Qian, please follow the rules and line up for inspection."
"you……"
Qian Duoduo pointed at her nose and said, "Your hair is so long. Don't think you're a soldier just because you're wearing a camouflage uniform. I'm telling you, if you offend the Qian family, you won't end well."
Grandma Chen couldn't help but complain: "Why does this little girl from the Qian family have such a bad temper?"
Zhou Lanxin nodded. "No one in the richest man's family is a good person. No matter how rich they were before the end of the world, now those banknotes are not worth as much as a pound of rice bran."
Qian Duoduo still refused to give in and insisted that someone open a back door for her.
Qian Duoduo is a bit stupid. How dare the richest man challenge the military?
Liang Yingsheng sneered, saying that a woman with big breasts and no brains would only become cannon fodder in the apocalypse.
Qian Guangming, who had completed the inspection, returned to the RV. Seeing that Qian Duoduo had not returned yet, he was a little unhappy.
"Where is Qian Duoduo?"
"Master, the young lady is making a fuss and is refusing to queue up. She's even challenging the person in charge."
Challenge the person in charge?
Qian Guangming sneered. Qian Duoduo, this stupid woman, even dad doesn’t dare to challenge her here, so why should she?
"Master Ming, do you want to help the young lady?"
"Help? If she wants to die, don't take me with her. Just wait for her here."
Because Qian Duoduo was causing trouble, the team here came to a standstill. Many people began to urge them to move forward, and some of them were even bold enough to speak rudely to her.
Qian Duoduo's face turned pale with anger. "Who are you to teach me a lesson? My dad is..."
At this moment, an armored vehicle suddenly drove from the front.
A sharp-eyed staff member trotted forward and opened the car door.
The first thing that caught my eye was a pair of black boots, followed by slender legs. A man in a dark green uniform slowly emerged from the armored vehicle.
He was a very tall man, with his hat pressed down on his head, and the hard lines of his features appeared even more distinct under the shadow of the hat brim.
Just standing there, the aura is fully released.
"What's going on?"
A cold male voice sounded, and everyone looked over.
"Captain! That lady claims to be the daughter of the richest man in Liaocheng and insisted on cutting in line so we could examine her first."
The staff member pointed at Qian Duoduo.
The phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and a cold gaze swept towards Qian Duoduo. Qian Duoduo suddenly felt as if she was in an ice cellar, extremely cold.
But who is this man?
So handsome and sexy!
Unlike her cheap brothers who rely on brand names to build up their wealth, this man carries a masculine aura, the kind that makes people's blood boil at the first sight of him.
"The richest man in Liaocheng?"
Qian Duoduo tugged at the hem of her skirt, trying to act more ladylike. "Hello, I'm Qian Duoduo, the daughter of Qian Chengye, the richest man in Liaocheng. After the apocalypse, my father donated two helicopters to the country."
Hearing this, Liang Yingsheng understood.
No wonder the Qian family is so arrogant and even has so many hot weapons.
However, his gaze turned to Xiao Yan again. After not seeing him for a long time, this man's aura seemed to be even stronger.
Xiao Yan just nodded indifferently. Under Qian Duoduo's hopeful gaze, he suddenly pulled out the pistol from his waist.
The pitch-black muzzle of the gun was pointed at Qian Duoduo's forehead, scaring her so much that her face turned pale instantly.
Her lips trembled and she said in a trembling voice: "You, you are..."
"Now that you have arrived at the Jiangcheng Strategic Base, which is under my control, no matter who you are, you must act according to the regulations."
Qian Duoduo was really scared this time, her eyes were filled with tears, and she felt very aggrieved.
Xiao Yan didn't leave in a hurry. Instead, he turned around and leaned against the front of the car, his arms around his chest and his long legs crossed. The aura of "no strangers allowed" became stronger and stronger.
Without money, Duoduo made trouble, and soon it was Liang Yingsheng's turn.
"Where are you from?"
"Pancheng."
The female soldier asked a question and Liang Yingsheng answered it.
As she was about to enter the tent, she clearly felt a cold gaze directed at her.
After the examination, Liang Yingsheng walked aside to wait for Zhou Lanxin and Grandma Chen, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
A slight sound of a lighter was heard. Liang Yingsheng turned his head and saw that Xiao Yan had a silver lighter in his white-gloved hand, playing with it casually.
