Lu Yuan didn't know how to answer them. He knew, of course he knew why these girls went in. It was because they took advantage of their loopholes and wanted to get food, which led them step by step into their trap and were locked in a dark room like pigs.
So he pondered for a moment and asked.
"How many girls were arrested inside?"
The man thought for a moment and said, "There are probably more than thirty people."
"I can find you whatever you want, as long as you release me. I can provide you with food, women, and even a ticket to the survivor base."
Lu Yuan gave a cold laugh.
"Didn't you only get those tickets by threatening them? Since we have some free time, let's chat about that survivor base!"
Knowing that Lu Yuan had overheard him, the other person didn't mind telling others, so he adjusted his posture and got off the electric scooter, still with his back to Lu Yuan.
"About 200 kilometers south of Qingshui City, there is a high-altitude area that was not flooded, and it has been turned into a survivor base."
"However, the first batch of recruits consisted of local political leaders, wealthy businessmen, and scholars such as professors."
"Oh, so which batch do you belong to?"
"I...I guess I'd call myself a wealthy businessman!"
"Oh right, I haven't asked your name yet. What's your name?"
Liu Mingtang didn't seem interested in hiding his identity; he smiled without any attempt to conceal it and said...
"My name is Liu Mingtang. You've probably heard of me by now!"
The doctor silently murmured the other person's name, and an advertising slogan immediately popped into his mind.
"Mingtang chilled meat, without ruining Mingtang!"
"Oh, you're the owner of Mingtang Fresh Meat! I knew you looked familiar!"
The other person smiled slightly, seemingly no longer afraid of Lu Yuan's danger.
"I've been standing for so long, can I sit down?!"
"Of course you can do whatever you want, but judging from your clothes, they must be quite expensive. What if you get them dirty sitting on the ground?"
"Hehe, clothes are just external things. Take them if you like!"
Lu Yuan rolled his eyes. Who cares about your clothes?
"I'm no longer interested in your clothes. Let's continue talking about this survivor base!"
The other person nodded, sat down on the rock, but still with their back to him, and spoke softly.
"The management of the survivor bases across the country has been handed over to the local authorities. The state is openly recruiting personnel for these bases; this is the first batch, and therefore the first time."
"Each survivor base will accommodate approximately 500,000 people. Then, based on the first batch, we will expand and start the second and third batches, thus gathering all the survivors together!"
"Five hundred thousand people? That's too few, isn't it?"
The other person shrugged.
"Five hundred thousand people is already a lot. With resources so scarce now, it's extremely difficult to quickly establish a base. Power facilities are basically all shut down, and strategic materials such as gasoline are now under national surveillance. It would cost an astronomical sum to allocate a large amount of strategic materials to build these new bases. It's not something you can just do whenever you want. Before the apocalypse, it wouldn't have been a problem, but now it's the apocalypse. You should understand this in the future!"
Lu Yuan nodded slightly, and then chatted with the other person for a while.
About two hours later, the other person's phone will ring.
Liu Mingtang was very cooperative this time, turning on the speakerphone and a rough voice immediately came through.
"Mr. Liu, I'm sent by General Manager Xu! I'm here to help you get the manor back!"
"Okay, where are you now?"
"Yes, we're right outside the manor!"
Lu Yuan quickly stood up, took out his binoculars, and looked to the left. Sure enough, he saw more than a dozen people standing outside the gate, each holding various weapons and confronting the people in the manor.
The people inside the manor refused to budge, and the two sides remained locked in a stalemate.
The other party raised his hand to ask Lu Yuan how to say it. Lu Yuan thought for a moment and then said softly.
"Think of a way to get all these people out!"
Li Mingtang quickly said.
"Alright, bring them out now!"
There was silence on the other end for a long time. Then, after a while, the other person spoke into the phone.
"Mr. Liu, what do you mean by this? Bring him out? The other party doesn't listen to us, how are we going to bring him out?"
Liu Mingtang shouted a curse into the phone.
"Idiots, what are those heads on your shoulders for? Do I have to teach you? What are those things you're holding? Just kick them out!"
The other party quickly agreed and then hung up the phone.
Sure enough, among the people outside the manor, one of them suddenly picked up a gun, pointed it at the loudest person in front of him, and shot him directly in the thigh.
Then the other side seemed to want to move, but the people behind them took out guns first, and finally the people in the manor chickened out, and everyone raised their hands.
Then the other party called again.
"We've already brought Mr. Liu out. What's next? Where are we taking them?"
"Wait for them in Qingshui City. I'll be there in a bit. Keep a close eye on them. Don't let a single one escape, you hear me!"
