Yu Guo didn't expect the people here to be so stubborn and unreasonable.
But it should be said that the wasteland is full of messy people, and the small town is often harassed by scavengers and thieves.
Not to mention bandits and looters.
When it comes, it will be a catastrophe.
"Wait!" Just as the young people were about to rush Yu Guo to leave, suddenly an old man came out of a small wooden house. The dilapidated wooden house looked like the kind that leaks wind in winter and rain in summer. place.
Yu Guo looked at the old man, the old man was also in tatters, and the patches couldn't be patched anymore.
This is nakedness.
"You said let us plant the land? Do you know how to grow things in this land?"
Yu Guo nodded, and he hurriedly said, "Of course I know. Otherwise, why would I come to you?"
The old man thought for a while, and then said: "It's impossible to move away, but if you are willing to provide us with food and take us to farm, we can consider it. But what can you get?"
"Safety in the southeast!" Yu Guo said righteously.
The old man thought for a while, and then said: "You said... safe? Hehe, young man, where does safety come from in the wasteland?"
"At least my place is safe, so I want to expand my security range. Old man, you should know that if you want to go to Savage Mountain from here, you have to go to the deer head."
The old man nodded, and when Yu Guo saw that there was a door, he hurriedly used his business skills and said: "So, I want to set up a camp there to prevent outsiders. Moreover, I can also charge for passing business travelers. Because this We can guarantee safety, and I can issue merchant qualifications to your people, and train them to increase our supplies here if they do business."
The old man obviously understood something, he thought for a while and said, "Then what benefits can we get?"
"Safety, food, even regular access to clean drinking water."
After Yu Guo finished speaking, the old man was stunned for a moment, and he asked suspiciously, "Do you have clean drinking water?"
"Old man, once this place is safe, I can provide supplies to feed your people to work, and then chop up a large amount for distillation. Only I can organize this. You don't have the confidence to speak like that, do you?"
Yu Guo didn't tell his secret. He couldn't tell the outside world that he had clean drinking water in his hand.
The old man thought for a while, and then he said, "Come with me, come here to talk."
"Grandpa Fama! Don't trust this stranger!"
"Okay Gore, I know what I know. Stranger, come with me!"
Yu Guo nodded. He obediently followed Fama into a small path, and then came to a big tree, where several people were sitting.
They seem to have nothing to do, they are all sitting here chatting.
They too were surprised when a stranger came.
Yu Guo saluted those people very politely, and then said, "Hello."
When greeted by strangers, they thought it was a new businessman. It's just that the bicycle that Yu Guo was pushing made them quite curious.
Generally, merchants use oxen or donkeys to pull things.
Very few ride this one. And Yu Guo was carrying a gun on his back.
Fama didn't let him unload his gun, because snatching the opponent's weapon in the wasteland was regarded as attacking the opponent.
So it is very easy to conflict.
Yu Guo didn't mean to use a gun at all, but put his back directly behind his back. He kept pushing the cart, so he definitely wouldn't draw a gun.
When Yu Guo came under the tree, a middle-aged man with a rough scar on his face said very rudely: "Old man, why did you let a stranger come here?"
"There is something important to discuss. He is from Savage Mountain. He said that the bandits and looters at the Red House have been wiped out."
"Haha!! Eliminate? Who? Just depend on him?"
The middle-aged man pointed at Yu Guo, Yu Guo smiled, and he asked back, "Is it not possible?"
The middle-aged man spat, then glared at Yu Guo unhappily.
After Fama sat down, he said calmly: "This young man intends to cooperate with us. I asked that both of us will benefit. He said it was luck, and he was exhausted. Predators and bandits."
"He killed two parties by himself?"
Yu Guo said calmly: "I was attacked by bandits and looters at the same time. They got radiation sickness from the heavy rain a few days ago in order to snatch the supplies in my hands. I killed them with a cheap knife. "
After Yu Guo said this, everyone fell silent.
He went on to say: "Everyone, I am not here to trouble you. I sincerely want to talk to you about something that is beneficial to both of us."
After Fama sat down and left, he said calmly, "Well, stranger, please tell everyone!"
Yu Guo nodded, and he said his thoughts from beginning to end.
After finishing speaking, the middle-aged man immediately said: "This is impossible, you can grow crops? Don't you know that most crops can't be eaten due to excessive radiation? Who are you lying to?"
"So I need people to help. We build a shed, and we have to dig deep pits to get soil. I can't use irradiated soil. Then we specially treat the water and reduce the radiation to a level that can be eaten. As long as we have enough people. And I I can offer you two options, the first is that you cooperate with me, the second is that I hire you to help me build it, and I find people who believe in me to farm the land myself.”
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, but didn't speak.
Yu Guo went on to say: "As long as the deer head can be controlled, I will find someone to block the other end, then the area from Savage Mountain to here will only have mutant beasts, as long as we don't go to Death Valley. Enclose. Gradually control this area, we will have safe land, as long as we have safety, we can develop. Repair the roads, and we can trade with merchants, asking them to leave some food as the price for enjoying safety. As long as we If the safety here spreads out, merchants will be willing to leave our place, and we will still have income. At that time, I will send you the collected things in the form of wages, and then everyone will continue to build farmland, residences, and more. camp."
After Yu Guo finished speaking, everyone fell silent.
The idea seemed too improbable for them.
Who can guarantee that what he said is true
But the problem is, if you don't stop, you will continue to starve.
Fama thought for a while, and then said: "Well, we both can try your second method. Our people go to work, and you have to take care of the food."
Yu Guo nodded immediately and said: "Okay, I will provide food, you can give me 20 people, and I only need 20 people in the early stage."
"Twenty? There are only about seventy people here. I can only give you ten..."
As soon as Yu Guo finished speaking, the young man named Gore immediately stood up and said, "I'll take them to try!"
Yu Guo smiled, and he said calmly: "Ten people? That's fine, then ten people!" We agreed that tomorrow you will bring ten people to Lutou to wait for me, and I will come early in the morning.
After finishing speaking, Fama nodded and said, "Gol, you take a young man with you!"
Gore nodded, looked at Yu Guo and said, "If you dare to lie to me, did you see the corpse under the deer's head? That's the thief in the town."
Yu Guo smiled, and he said calmly: "Brother, I am more afraid than you. I am afraid that you will not keep the promise and not work tomorrow! I really hope to be safe now. If I am safe, I can Guaranteed to provide you with food!"
Gore took a deep breath and said, "Okay! As long as you don't lie to me, I will work hard!"
Yu Guo nodded, and he said calmly, "Okay, as a gift. This is for you."
Yu Guo took out two packs of compressed biscuits, and he said calmly, "Rinse this with water, and don't put it away. Besides, old people, I don't think you have any entertainment. I gave this to you, and it's useless to me."
As Yu Guo said, he handed the mahjong to the old man.
Originally, Yu Guo thought that these people would not know how to play, and he planned to tell them how to play.
After seeing mahjong, the old man said in surprise: "Mahjong?! This is mahjong from the pre-war era! This thing is very expensive! You can get a lot of food in exchange."
Yu Guo smiled, and he said calmly, "Can you play?"
"The ancestors have this inheritance from generation to generation. We play this on Rebirth Festival, but they are all made of stones or bones."
Yu Guo handed them mahjong and said, "Do any of you know how to use a gun?"
Gore hurriedly said, "I will!"
"Only one?" Yu Guo asked back.
"I can do it too!"
"I can use a bandit's gun."
Two more young men came out, Yu Guo nodded and said, "Okay, tomorrow I will bring you three guns and three basic ammunition."
"You... give us guns?"
"Otherwise? If I don't give you guns, how can I protect this place? You are not safe, how can I be safe?" After Yu Guo finished speaking, Gao Er seemed to be less on guard, and the middle-aged man snorted coldly and stood up angrily. gone.
Seeing that the situation was almost over, Yu Guo looked at Gore and said, "Remember my name, my name is Yu Guo, and I live on the top of Savage Mountain, but don't take the risk to find me, the traps there have already killed a lot of people." There are predators, the west side has not been completely blocked, so it is only temporarily safe. If there is nothing to do, don’t go to Savage Mountain, and I will take you to my house when we cooperate to a certain extent. But not now.”
