Lianyi bent down and picked up Xuanfeng, then said to Sun Zhou who was touching his chest:
"My Cyclone felt a little frustrated fighting you, so I called it back."
"What does Miss Ripple mean?"
Chu Hong, the only female among the newcomers, asked.
"My whirlwind attacks the enemy usually, and its targets are the eyes, carotid arteries, and ankles. These are places where a single hit will kill or seriously injure. When sparring with one of its own people, it doesn't dare to hurt anyone, so the fight is rather frustrating."
Ripple explained with a smile.
Tang Tianming and Situ Yi both gasped.
"I didn't realize your cat is so amazing."
Chu Hong raised her eyebrows.
"Of course, otherwise why would I keep it? In this kind of apocalyptic disaster, if you want to survive, you have to be strong."
Ripple said calmly.
"Meow" Tornado also raised his head and called out, echoing the words of his cat master.
Zhao Jia covered her lips with her hands to hide her urge to laugh out loud.
Everyone can see how rare Ripple is compared to Whirlwind, even if Whirlwind is incompetent, Ripple can still afford it, but Whirlwind is indeed competitive.
"Well, thank you for letting me."
What else can Sun Zhou say? He can't even beat someone else's cat, so he'd better not embarrass himself.
The rest was easy. Li Qian, Sun Weifeng, and Zhao Jia practiced with Situ Yi, Tang Tianming, and Chu Hong respectively, and they had a good idea of everyone's strength. Only Lianyi stood by and watched, sometimes giving some pointers to the two people who were practicing.
The main thing is that she always hits the nail on the head and is obviously an expert, so no one dares to challenge her.
Situ Yi privately asked Yuan Chongming about Lianyi's strength. Yuan Chongming thought about it and said:
"She is the most powerful among all of us. Before the natural disaster, she was a lone wolf who completed special missions alone. You don't have to doubt her strength."
After hearing this, Situ Yi touched his nose and stopped asking questions. After all, what is true cannot be false, and what is false cannot be true.
The few of them were still getting used to each other, so Lianyi didn't plan to join in. She took Xuanfeng and went to the trading market again. She met Dong Ziqing once and never saw him again. This guy must be up to something bad, so she planned to meet this scum.
Things turned out just as Lianyi had expected. Ever since they had run into Lianyi, Dong Ziqing and Sun Peng had taken turns waiting in the trading market just to block Lianyi.
It was Dong Ziqing's turn to wait that day. When he saw Lianyi wearing a black mink coat, thick snow boots, and strolling leisurely in the market with a black cat in her arms, a hint of jealousy flashed in his eyes, and then he immediately chased after her.
"Ripple! Ripple!"
Lian Yi heard the familiar voice, her eyes turned, and she stopped. Then she turned around and saw Dong Ziqing jogging towards her. She curled her lips and said with a smile:
"Senior, what a coincidence? I run into you again!"
"Junior Lianyi, this is not a coincidence. I have been waiting for you here for several days."
Dong Ziqing said immediately.
"Wait for me? Is there something wrong?"
"I have something to say, but this is not the place to talk. Can we go somewhere else?"
Dong Zi glanced around, deliberately took two steps forward, and spoke in a low voice.
"Okay, you lead the way!"
Lianyi took a step back and wrinkled her nose. The smell on the other person was really bad.
Dong Ziqing was a little embarrassed, and after a pause, he said to Lian Yi:
"Your friend isn't with you?"
"We are going to visit separately. We will meet at the entrance of the trading market later. Just lead the way."
Ripple said impatiently.
"Okay, follow me."
Dong Ziqing brought Lianyi to a two-story building in the middle of the trading market, said something to the person at the door, and then entered smoothly, and entered a separate small private room.
"This is the safest place in the trading market. Some transactions that are not convenient for face-to-face talks are conducted here."
Dong Ziqing explained.
"Well, you can say it now!"
"Lianyi, I know you have found a backer. I have a business that I want to cooperate with you on."
"Don't keep me in suspense. Just tell me! If it's appropriate, I'll tell the people here."
Lianyi said impatiently while stroking Tornado.
After laying the groundwork for so long, I still don’t know what the hell is going on.
"Sun Peng and I found an underground granary. We found it when we were breaking ice, but we have limited manpower and no one to back us up. Even if we find the food, we can't keep it, so we want to find someone to cooperate with us."
"How much food? Where is it?"
"One hundred tons of various grains are worth the risk. As for where they are, please allow me to keep it a secret. Before we are sure of the cooperation, I will definitely not casually reveal such important information."
Dong Ziqing said calmly.
"How to cooperate?"
"We found this place. Once we dig out the food, there will be six of us and four of you."
"Tsk, are you kidding me? We only give you 40% for all our efforts. Instead of that, wouldn't it be better if we kill all of you and take all of it?"
Ripple said disdainfully.
You really think they are being taken advantage of!
Dong Ziqing's breath was choked, and he clenched his fists under the table, his knuckles turning white, but he still endured it. After lowering his head and thinking for a while, he raised his head and said:
"Junior Lianyi, we are classmates after all. If we were not desperate, we would not take such a big risk to find someone to cooperate with. You also said that you can just leave us alone and monopolize all the food.
But I believe you are not that kind of person. Since we have borrowed your help, we don't want to cause any trouble. Whatever you think is appropriate, I will go back and discuss it with my companions."
"That's more like it. If you want to cooperate, you must be sincere."
Lian Yi nodded with satisfaction and said:
"Let's split it up into three and seven! You three, after all, you discovered the place, and we seven, we will be responsible for the excavation and transportation of the food, and we will also share the risk with you. You can tell others that we stole all the food."
"That's fine! I'll go back and discuss it with everyone. We'll meet here again in three days. Is that okay with you?"
"Of course, I'll wait for your good news."
After watching the other party leave, Lianyi sat for a while, changed her clothes, hid Xuanfeng, returned to the military and police station, and then went to find Yuan Chongming.
"Captain, we're here to work!"
"What's the meaning?"
"My former senior came to me and said that they had a hiding place of a granary, but they had limited manpower and ability to take the grain out, so they wanted to seek cooperation."
Ripple said calmly.
"Do you think we can cooperate?"
"It's not cooperation, it's a sweep. He has no good intentions. The two times we went to the trading market, they targeted me.
Whether this cooperation is true or not, I think it is worth a look. If there is food, it is better. If there is no food, we can also know what he is up to. "
"When did you guys agree to meet again?"
"Trading market in three days!"
"Okay then, I'll notify everyone to get ready."
