Before Uncle San could finish watching the excitement, another person stumbled in, looking just as disheveled as Liangzi.
"Third...Third Uncle, no...something bad has happened."
Uncle San's mind went blank for a moment, he had a vague feeling, and his lips trembled as he couldn't speak.
After striking Liangzi with his cane a few times, Fourth Uncle's anger subsided slightly, but he was still annoyed by the veiled meaning in Third Uncle's words:
"Shanzi, what's wrong? Tell me slowly, don't worry your third uncle."
Shanzi's expression was difficult to read; he was on the verge of tears as he said, "The...the warehouse...was robbed."
We knew it! Everyone's heart was shattered.
Ding Fengguo, overwhelmed with anger, could no longer muster any more. With a gloomy face, he asked, "Which warehouse?"
Shanzi trembled and stammered, "Armor...armory."
Fourth Uncle quickly chimed in:
"Armory! Oh dear, Third Brother, that's a huge amount of weaponry. The head of the family went through so much trouble to get it back. How could it be stolen? Oh dear, what are we going to do? The safety of the whole family depends on that batch of weapons. Third Brother, how could you be so careless?"
Third Uncle clutched his chest, panting heavily. Hearing Fourth Uncle's inflammatory words, his heart felt even more uncomfortable.
The eldest son of the third uncle, supporting his father, glared angrily at the fourth uncle, saying, "You haven't even cleaned up your own mess yet, why are you meddling in my family's business?"
Shanzi said with a mournful face, "There's...there's also...a grain...food...reserve warehouse."
Grain reserve! Uncle San rolled his eyes and fainted.
"Quick, quick, call a doctor, call a doctor!"
The Ding family was in complete chaos.
Ding Fengguo sat upright to one side with a dark face, ignoring the chaos before him.
The second uncle didn't say anything and hurriedly walked out. He also had several warehouses under his jurisdiction, and he wouldn't feel at ease without checking them.
Second Uncle left, and Fourth Uncle also slipped away. With Third Uncle by his side, even if the family head wanted to punish him, he would have company.
Ding Fengguo's heart was bleeding.
Five aircraft, a rare metals depot, an arms depot, and a grain reserve.
Peacetime is nothing, but this is the apocalypse! The apocalypse!! Are supplies so easy to replenish?
The loss of so many supplies has already shaken the foundation of the Ding family. The third and fourth sons are still fighting amongst themselves. He rubbed his temples. The other party came with great force, but he hadn't even seen a shadow of them.
Ding Fengguo had a very bad feeling, as if something even worse was about to happen.
...
The Ding family's main base is located between Chongqing and Chengdu. The Ding family ancestors made their fortune here, and the family gradually prospered and formed a village.
Besides the Ding family, there were many other families with different surnames. The Ding family was powerful, and it is unknown when the place was named after the Ding family, hence the name Dingjia Village.
The village is nestled against the mountains and beside the water; before the apocalypse, it was a paradise-like place.
Under the extreme cold and darkness, Dingjia Village naturally doesn't have the idyllic scenery of a paradise, but because the Ding family's headquarters are located here, it has a more lively atmosphere than the surrounding villages and towns.
There is a street lamp every so often along the village roads.
Before the apocalypse, a few streetlights would have been commonplace, but during the polar night when energy was scarce, the Ding family still had the financial resources to supply the villagers, demonstrating their wealth and power in the smallest details.
I remember in my past life, every Saturday and Sunday, people from the surrounding area would come to Dingjia Village to exchange daily necessities, just like going to a market.
I wonder if things are still the same in this world.
Returning to Dingjia Village, Zuo Ling was filled with emotion.
"Will cutting off one of Zhao Min's fingers cause us trouble?"
Pei Nansheng glanced at her sideways: "You've already cut it, and now you're only thinking about whether it might cause trouble? Isn't it a bit late?"
Zuo Ling only wanted her brother to comfort her, but she ended up running into someone who couldn't understand.
A person hurriedly ran towards us from a distance.
Pei Nansheng said, "It's happened."
Zuo Ling narrowed her eyes. The show was about to begin, and she really wanted to see how the Ding family would react.
Pei Nansheng leaned closer to Zuo Ling and whispered, "Do you want to give the Ding family another heavy blow?"
"certainly!"
She came back for revenge; otherwise, why would she come back?
Pei Nansheng turned and walked in one direction, his intentions unknown. Zuo Ling followed after him.
