Chapter 177 Extreme Cold. Not Star City International?
When Xingcheng International came to attack, Ouyang and Yin Tianlin were leading people to make fires to melt the snow, and then pour water on the wall, and by the way, stick Lao Li's special wooden spikes to prevent the enemy from climbing.
Xue Nuo and Gu Ye took Xiao Mei, Wendy, Liu Qin and Yao Jiayu to practice the ladder. The four of them were about the same level and none of them could climb up one floor. When Xiao Mei and Wendy saw the enemy coming, they burst out and climbed up directly.
Liu Qin and Yao Jiayu's legs were so weak that they couldn't even hold on to the rope.
Ouyang asked everyone else to go up. He and Snow stayed behind to ring the gong and protect the two women. Yin Tianlin and Tang Xiao stayed behind voluntarily.
Standing in the front was a man with a scar on his face, of medium build, wearing a large cotton hat, a military coat, and his hands tucked into his sleeves.
There is a short and fat man on the left of the scarred man and a green hat man on the right.
Everyone's outfit was weird, which didn't look scary, but rather a bit silly.
Ouyang stepped forward bravely, "Um... Brothers, who are you..."
The scarred man didn't say anything. The green hat man said in a very aggressive tone, "Don't say that, this is our third brother, nicknamed the Godly Third Brother."
The short fat man said, "Hurry up and hand over the food so that you won't suffer any more."
Third brother?
Not Star City International!!!
Ouyang hurriedly explained, "Third brother, we previously collected 50 kilograms and gave them to Star City International. We really have no more food."
"Fuck, if you don't have 50 kilograms, 30 kilograms will do. We will take care of 30 kilograms for half a month."
"Why waste your time talking to them?" The short fat man was unwilling. "Don't you see what they are doing? They are pouring water on the wall to protect us. How can they not have food?"
The green hat deliberately shook the gun hanging on his chest and said with a stern face, "I'll give you ten minutes to hand over the food quickly, otherwise don't blame us brothers for being unkind."
Yao Jiayu was so scared that she kept burrowing into Ouyang's arms. Liu Qin was also scared, but unfortunately there was no one for her to burrow into, so she could only step back and bump into Yin Tianlin.
Yin Tianlin dodged and asked casually, "If we hand it over, can you guarantee that others will not disturb us?"
The short fat man spat and said, "You are still bargaining. I tell you, if you hand over the grain, we will not go in to rob. As for whether others rob, that is their business and has nothing to do with us."
"Then what is this called protection money?"
"Fuck, you got a problem with that?" the short fat man said as he drew the knife from his waist, "Believe it or not, I'm going to chop you to death right now."
"Brothers, calm down first." Ouyang also regretted arranging for the two of them to learn the rope ladder today. Otherwise, if everyone went up, they wouldn't be so passive. "We really can't afford it. Can you give us a few days to go out and look for it?"
Scarface, who had been silent the whole time, slowly pulled his hand out and patted the gun on his chest, "It seems like you guys really don't want to live long. So far, no one has dared to mess with me, Shen Lao San."
His voice was hoarse and unpleasant, a bit like a crow. "I'll give you ten minutes to bring out the food."
"Yes, hurry up and get it. Don't think you can stop us by making a ladder."
Ouyang looked embarrassed. He had not prepared any food before, and it would take more than ten minutes to go door to door to ask for it. If he paid for it first, other residents might not return it to him.
If he doesn't pay it back, he and Luoyang will have to starve to death.
While he was weighing the pros and cons, Yin Tianlin stepped forward and said with a bitter face, "My friend on the underworld, to be honest, a big brother came here yesterday to ask for rice. 100 kilograms can keep us safe for a month."
The short fat man swung his knife twice, "Impossible, you fucking need to frame us."
"That big brother said that they are in charge of this area and will kill anyone who comes to cause trouble. We don't have that much rice, and we promised to gather it in three days. If we give it to you today, we won't be able to explain if they come."
"Fuck, that's your business, what does it have to do with us?"
"Brother, if we can't hand over so much food, people will die, so we have to explain why the food is not gathered." Yin Tianlin said while glancing at the scarred man's expression, "Brother, we also told them our difficulties and discussed whether we can pay less. The big brother said that they have more than a hundred people and can't lose a single grain."
100 people!!!
After hearing this, Cuckold's face turned green, and he hurriedly whispered in Scarface's ear, "Boss, after the Eagle Gang and the Prince are gone, many gangs have indeed emerged. We still have to be careful."
Scarface smacked his lips. Nothing was more important than life. "If you are lying, I will kill you all."
"No lie, no lie, we wouldn't dare to."
"How much food do you have now?"
"I only have 5 kilograms of brown rice, and I'm preparing to make porridge for everyone in the building tonight."
The green hat whispered to the scarred man, "Third brother, five pounds is fine, we can come back and make porridge. We can come back next month, they can't run away anyway."
The short fat man didn't know what the two of them were mumbling about, "Third brother, five pounds is not enough to fill the gaps between our teeth. Who cares which gang they are from? We have to eat first."
At this moment, Gu Ye and other building committee members came down the ladder one after another, each holding a weapon, and their momentum was no less than that of the opposite side.
"Third brother, there are no bullets in our guns, so we may not have the advantage in a fight." The cuckold was anxious.
The scarred man weighed the strength of both sides and felt that a head-on fight was unwise, so he nodded.
The green hat hurriedly shouted, "Okay, then give us 5 kilograms of rice."
Ouyang was very satisfied with the figure of five kilograms, and hurriedly asked Luoyang to go home to get it, then said with a smile: "Brothers, we will go right away, right away. We have to pay the protection fee even if we are hungry."
After a while, Luoyang took down five kilograms of rice and placed it in the middle of the two sides. The scarred man ordered his men to take it back, glanced at the apartment again, and packed up the car.
Ouyang breathed a sigh of relief, finally sending the plague away. Liu Qin and Yao Jiayu were still weak in the knees. Ouyang and Snow could only carry one on each of their backs to carry them up.
After everyone went up, Zhao Wei muttered, "What if we are caught lying? Why don't you just say nonsense without thinking it through?"
Yin Tianlin glanced around and found that he was not the only one who had this idea. Gao Chenghe and Luoyang also looked worried.
Ouyang asked everyone to go back and rest first. No matter what, this stage was finally passed.
When Gu Ye returned home, he talked about the scarred man across the street, who looked like a security guard at Fuyuan Mansion.
It is not impossible. Most people who can quickly form small groups work in 24-hour shifts, eat and live together, and naturally gather together when something happens. For example, security guards, factory workers, and scientific researchers.
But there is also a special group - college students. The smart ones in this group are really smart, and the stupid ones are also really stupid.
Owners living in a community often choose to band together for support at the last minute. There are very few places that can quickly form a safety team like District 7.
After finally tricking the third brother away, another group of people came two days later.
A bus was carrying about twenty people, seven or eight of them were wearing winter clothes from a certain factory. They were stronger than the group led by the third brother, and they all looked ferocious and held machetes.
As luck would have it, Ouyang and Zhao Wei were leading people to collect snow downstairs, and they immediately organized to climb back. By the time he and Zhao Wei wanted to go up, it was too late, and Zhao Wei was directly pulled down from the ladder.
Ouyang wanted to learn how to lie from Yin Tianlin, but was slapped in the face by the other party. They all gathered at the bottom of the building, pulling the ladder and eager to try.
"If you don't have food, use women." The other party grabbed his hair and shouted into the building, "I give you 20 minutes to prepare 500 kilograms of food and 10 women."
This is definitely not on the same level as the ones from the previous two days.
