Su Tao had no choice but to go find Sheng Yuqing.
Ever since she persuaded Sheng Yuqing to join the army last time, she started learning from Pei Dong.
Unexpectedly, Sheng Yuqing couldn't be contacted either.
After making a few phone calls, I finally learned from Xing Shuyu that 18 evolved zombies were attempting an attack three kilometers away from Dongyang Gate No. 2.
Pei Dong has mobilized most of the manpower to provide support and is still holding on. He asked her to call him again in a few days.
"Is there anyone who needs my help?" Su Tao was shocked when she heard it.
18 evolved zombies are too scary.
Why does it feel like the number of evolved zombie blood sickles is increasing as time goes by?
Xing Shuyu shook his head and said solemnly:
"The water and instant food you sent us are enough. The problem now is that there's a huge disparity in strength. I'm afraid we'll have to sacrifice the land in the floating area at Gate No. 2 this time."
Su Tao fell silent.
The floating area is quite close to the city center, which is not a good sign.
Xing Shuyu sighed and said, "Actually, we're already lucky. At least the soldiers died in battle, not from starvation or thirst. Look at Yun Cang and Shou An next to them. They've been without water and food for a while now. They can't even afford to hide like turtles. In the end, we're still more respectable."
"Although the floating area is close to the city center, the city wall here is almost completed. As long as Sister Pei and the others can hold on for another week, we still have a chance to catch our breath."
Su Tao hung up the phone heavily.
No, she always felt that Dongyang might not be able to hold on for too long.
We need to make some preparations, otherwise if more places fall, the number of homeless people will increase dramatically.
The current housing types in Taoyang, even single rooms, are not cheap.
We need to upgrade quickly to unlock dormitory rooms, lower rents, and share some of the population pressure.
This is also beneficial to her. Not only can she upgrade quickly, but she can also earn more rent.
For the next three days, Su Tao worked like clockwork, asking Ma Dapao and Zhuang Wan to spread the news of the sale of supplies and the purchase of crystal cores, while frantically building houses.
Over three consecutive days, 20 single rooms, 10 double rooms and 10 two-bedroom, one-living-room apartments were built.
Meng Qian's eyes almost popped out when she received so many vacant rooms.
Su Tao's eyes were red from staying up late. "Go and screen the application forms quickly. Don't accept applications from other bases for now. Focus on Dongyang first."
Meng Qian nodded vigorously and went to work in a hurry.
As soon as she left, Lei Xing came over, looked at Su Tao's bloodshot eyes, frowned and said:
"Why are you so anxious? What does the fall of Dongyang have to do with you?"
Su Tao said: "People like you who travel all over the world don't understand."
Lei Xing did not comment, and asked:
"I heard from Ma Dapao that you're buying crystal cores and selling supplies to seek cooperation. What are you talking about?"
Su Tao nodded.
Many bases and organizations have heard the news in the past few days, but most of them do not believe that Taoyang has supplies and are still waiting and watching.
Lei Xing said, "My brothers and I have an idea recently. Can you allocate a piece of land for us to use as our base for Baotu? As for the rent for this land, do you want money or crystal cores?"
Su Tao became excited: "Don't you have a territory outside?"
Lei Xing was a little disgusted: "It's too far from Taoyang, and the location is not very good. It's not as good as your place, with complete facilities and beautiful environment."
"How much land do you want?"
"About a thousand square meters. Ideally, it would have accommodations, a training ground, a shooting range, a small cafeteria, and so on. Outsiders are not allowed in."
Su Tao's face darkened: "You have quite high requirements."
Lei Xing grinned: "So whether you want money or crystal cores, just ask."
Su Tao's mind was full of thoughts. She stretched out her hand and said:
"Okay, but you have to pay me two crystal cores as a deposit first. You'll also have to pay for the infrastructure construction, which will probably cost... I'll go back and ask Rongrong to make a budget for me and report back to you."
Lei Xing was very straightforward. He called Big Mouth over and said, "Spit out four crystal cores for Boss Su."
Big Mouth opened his mouth wide and spit out four pills. He wiped them on his clothes and handed them to Su Tao.
Su Tao was in a dilemma, neither accepting nor refusing to accept, and said hesitantly:
"Two, not four"
Lei Xing slapped Dazui on the forehead, took the crystal core, washed it at the fountain, and handed it to Su Tao:
"The four crystals are what my brothers and I agreed on. Take them. Also, I'll pay you 10% of our mercenary income as monthly rent. On average, that should give you 400,000 to 600,000 federal coins a month. It's not a lot, but we'll also give you 10% of the crystal cores we harvest."
"Do you think it's appropriate?"
Su Tao didn't expect such a good thing to happen: "Give me both the money and the crystal core?"
As far as she knew, Leopard Path was a relatively well-known mercenary team. The commissions were considerable, and the harvested crystal cores were probably quite a lot.
Lei Xing nodded with a smile.
Su Tao's eyebrows were filled with joy: "Deal, deal. I will try to complete the construction of your land by the first half of September."
That was perfect. The 1,000-square-meter land of the old station was allocated to Baotu, so she didn't have to worry about managing it.
East District
"Boss Gu, I heard Baotu is going to sell that piece of land."
Gu Mingchi remained motionless, glanced at his deputy and said:
"Isn't Lei Xing very rare? Why is he still guarding such a shabby place? Why would he sell it just like that? Are you short of money?"
The deputy swallowed and said, "I heard they found a better place."
Gu Mingchi sneered: "Go wherever you want, but don't let me run into him, or I will pull out all his teeth."
After saying that, he waited for a while and saw that his deputy was still standing there, so he asked impatiently:
"What else?"
The deputy trembled a little: "Leopard Road wants to sell it to you, saying it only costs 250 federal coins."
Gu Mingchi was furious: "Humiliating me? Find out where they moved to! I dared to take their territory once, and I will dare to do it again!"
Wu Zhen was looking after the sprouting green plants on the terrace of Taoli Building.
After cultivating a mature lily, he smelled it with satisfaction, then looked up at the greenhouse in the distance, his heart filled with peace and tranquility.
Before I knew it, I had been in Taoyang for almost half a year.
All the nightmares that Shouan once had seemed far away from him.
Just thinking of Minda and her son still makes me feel a little sad.
Maybe time will heal everything, as long as no one brings it up again.
But he just wanted to think so, and someone came to poke his scar.
When he received Jiang Qingxiang's call, he was completely confused and couldn't even remember who this person was for a moment.
"Xiao Zhen, I heard you're in Taoyang, Dongyang, right? How are your wife and kids? Are you used to living there?"
Wu Zhen's face darkened immediately: "Miss Jiang, if you have anything to say, just say it directly."
Jiang Qingxiang was a little unhappy.
It's really like the monkeys scatter when the tree falls. What a heartless person.
At first, Wu Zhen was just a small gardener in her backyard.
Now, Shou'an is in danger, and the Jiang family is unable to protect themselves. Even if they have more weapons, the soldiers cannot rush out without enough food.
Occasionally I heard that Taoyang, which appeared in Dongyang, had supplies and could be bought as long as one had money.
She had no choice but to ask her former gardener for help.
Otherwise she wouldn't have put up with this.
Jiang Qingxiang endured it and asked in a gentle voice: "I just want to ask you if Taoyang is reliable and whether it really has supplies. Tell me the truth, and I will definitely benefit from you."
