Lu Yuan's words immediately frightened everyone away; no one would dare to shoot and kill Lu Yuan here.
They had no doubt that Lu Yuan could easily break the other person's neck.
In particular, Lu Yuan's amazing arm strength allowed him to easily lift a man weighing 150 or 160 pounds, which is definitely an extremely strong force.
They even felt that Lu Yuan must be one of those mutants, but now that all mutants have vanished, no mutant could possibly survive such a long time.
Xiao Han's eyes were rolling back, and he was breathing rapidly. Lu Yuan gently tossed him to the ground, his eyes fixed on the people nearby, like a ferocious beast.
Everyone who saw him was so frightened by that one look that they took a few steps back.
Xiao Han, who was lying on the ground, clutched his neck and coughed incessantly.
However, no one in the crowd dared to make a move. Only when he finally recovered did Lu Yuan lift him up.
"Can we cooperate now?"
How could Xiao Han dare to say no now?
He nodded repeatedly, having no doubt that Lu Yuan could easily crush his head based on the strength he had just displayed.
After taking a few deep breaths, Lu Yuan saw that the other person had regained their ability to speak before he spoke.
"Take me to your warehouse, I want to see what you have."
After hearing this, the other person immediately showed a hint of nervousness on their face.
"Let me tell you what you're up to. The Survivor Center is watching us right now. If you dare to lay a hand on our camp, and we report it, your camp will never receive a single penny of supplies again."
Upon seeing these words, Lu Yuan couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.
"Hmph, do you think I care about your stuff? I'm here to negotiate. Judging by your state, we've wasted all our time today. I don't even know what your camp has. What I want now is supplies. I've brought food with me. If you're willing to cooperate honestly, let's get down to business!"
After listening, the other person shook their head slightly.
"There's nothing you want in the warehouse, and we don't lack food right now. We want something else. If you have something, I can trade it for you. But if you want to attack me now, come anytime, but you won't get the goods!"
"Then you have to tell me what exactly you possess. How can I negotiate with you if you don't come up with some terms and conditions?"
The other person frowned slightly, glancing at the people around him throughout, and everyone knew that he was avoiding them.
Then this person spoke with deep emotion.
"Gold! I have a gold mine here, and we've already confirmed that it contains nearly thirty tons of gold. If you're willing to cooperate with me, we can discuss the value of gold in detail later. You should understand!"
Upon hearing what the other person said, Lu Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Don't you only have gold here?"
"Of course! What else do you want besides gold? Gold is so valuable! Gold is a symbol of prosperity, and antiques are a symbol of good times. You must know that, right? But we're in a chaotic world right now!"
Lu Yuan had already lost the will to negotiate with the other party.
"Gold in chaotic times" is a saying, but this is the end times. Chaotic times are different. In the end times, what is most important? Resources!
Supplies and food were his top priority; things like gold were of no use to him.
Those things are just external possessions. Now that even the monetary system has collapsed, what's the use of having more gold?
Lu Yuan shook his head with a wry smile; today's trip had been a waste.
Two round trips of over 200 kilometers, how much fuel does that consume?
They don't yet have the technology to refine fuel oil, and if they continue like this, they really can't afford to keep going.
So Lu Yuan looked around.
"No way! We've wasted our gasoline for nothing. We have to make them compensate us, otherwise we won't be able to get very far back this time!"
Zhou Tong nodded repeatedly after listening.
This trip took more than 200 kilometers, and the return trip will take another 200 kilometers.
This further exacerbated their already meager oil reserves.
Seeing Lu Yuan and his family leave, Xiao Han's face immediately showed a relaxed expression.
However, just as Lu Yuan boarded the ship and was about to turn the key, he suddenly turned back.
Xiao Han was stunned, not knowing what Lu Yuan was going to do.
Lu Yuan walked towards him.
He looked at Lu Yuan, trembling, unsure of what the other was going to do.
"Um... is there anything you forgot to bring? It seems like you didn't bring anything with you!"
"I suddenly remembered, I'm in dire need of a few things right now. If you have them in your camp, then trade with me!"
"But what I lack right now isn't food; I want to exchange gold for supplies!"
Lu Yuan rubbed the calluses on his hands, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes, and stared at the other person.
"I'm not talking to you about cooperation right now, I'm asking you a question! If you still don't understand, then I can demonstrate it for you!"
After saying that, Lu Yuan was about to grab him, but Xiao Han knew Lu Yuan's methods, so he quickly took two steps back and waved his hands repeatedly.
"No, no, no, I'll listen, I'll listen, okay? What do you want?"
"Take a look at the items on this list! If you find them, get them out as soon as possible. Don't make me go looking for them myself. If I have to go looking for them myself, you won't be in this mood to talk to me!"
The other party quickly took the order and glanced at it.
Above him were a list of things that Lu Yuan was currently lacking. He glanced at it and then looked at his assistant beside him.
"Check if we have these things in our warehouse. If we do, bring them out right away!"
After glancing at it, the other person immediately pointed to the top item and said.
"Yes, we really do have one of these drilling rigs at the very top!"
But that thing is too heavy; it's been sitting outside as paving material. I don't know if it's broken now. Should I have them take it away for you?
After listening, the other person nodded quickly and pointed to the open space behind Lu Yuan.
"Brother, brother, it's right there, right there. All your drilling equipment is there, a complete set. We used it to pave roads, and we don't need it anymore. You can take it for free. I just beg you not to come back, okay?"
Seeing the other person's expression, Lu Yuan completely ignored him and walked straight in the direction the other person was pointing.
