The child came over slowly.
This is a very thin child, obviously malnourished.
However, it is no small miracle that a child can survive in the apocalypse. There are more than 1,300 people in the camp, and there are not many children like this.
Shen Cong used to live in the south of the city and knew a woman named Liu Fang with a teenage son.
According to Zhang Youhai, Liu Fang's son slipped when he was moving to higher ground, rolled down the slope, and was washed away by the flood. Liu Fang also jumped into the flood and disappeared into the vast and turbid rolling waves.
After Shen Cong heard this, he asked Zhang Youhai: "Is the general manager of Kaixin Real Estate in the camp?"
After the provisional government was established, Zhang Youhai came over and said to Shen Cong: "I have inquired, but there is no such person."
…
Looking at the little carrot head in front of him, Shen Cong suddenly asked: "Child, what is your name?"
"Liu..." The voice was very small.
"What?"
"Liu Yangyang."
"How old?"
"Six years old."
"Where's your mother?" Shen Cong asked an idiot question, feeling quite embarrassed.
Liu Yangyang replied crisply: "Mom is on a business trip."
"Oh." Shen Cong was suddenly at a loss for words. He forgot to cut steel with the fang dagger in his hand. Then he thought about it, turned around and took out a warm sand pear from the King Kong car and handed it to the little carrot head, "Here. you."
Liu Yangyang put his hands behind his back and refused to take them.
Shen Cong urged: "Take it."
"Dad doesn't want it."
Shen Cong turned around and shouted to Liu Changming, who was immersed in his notebook working on data: "Liu Changming, I will give your son a pear. You let him take it."
Liu Changming raised his head and said embarrassedly: "How embarrassing is this."
"Let him hold it." Shen Cong's tone turned cold.
"Oh, okay, Yangyang, Uncle Huang gave it to you, take it."
Only then did Liu Yangyang take the pear.
Liu Changming added: "Thank you, Uncle Huang?"
"Thank you, Uncle Huang."
"You're welcome, eat it, it will make you grow taller." The effect of Wensha pear is very moist, even a child's body can bear it.
He compared the Yin grape and the mild sand pear. The more active Yin grape is perfectly fine for ordinary people to eat, while the mild sand pear is fine for children to eat. However, it is difficult to say whether it can strengthen the body of ordinary people. Ordinary people cannot eat much active fruit, and even if it is strengthened, it will not show it.
But being extremely hungry is a given. A single grape can keep ordinary people from feeling tired even if they don't eat for several days.
Clapping his hands, he signaled Liu Yangyang to go play aside, and Shen Cong turned his head to the other side.
Zhao Yalan appeared in front of Shen Cong's eyes.
"I didn't expect you to be a complete cold-blooded animal." Zhao Yalan walked over carelessly.
Shen Cong replied coldly: "Is something wrong?" The notebook was placed in his hand, so that he could know everything around him at any time. Zhao Yalan had been here for a while.
"Zhu Haifeng said you were very powerful, but I didn't quite believe it, so I took advantage of my free time to compare the gap between us..."
Before Zhao Yalan finished speaking, Shen Cong suddenly moved, kicked his legs, and instantly jumped in front of Zhao Yalan. Then he stretched out a hand and pinched Zhao Yalan's neck with lightning speed.
He asked in a cold voice: "Are you comparing yourself? If you are comparing yourself, get out!"
Then he threw Zhao Yalan heavily to the ground.
"Ahem..." Zhao Yalan coughed violently and looked at Shen Cong with her eyes wide open, "I take back what I just said, you are such a cold-blooded animal!"
He got up and limped away.
Seeing such a turn of events, Liu Yangyang had already hid beside Liu Changming, holding Liu Changming's arm, not daring to look at Shen Cong. Liu Changming also shyly avoided Shen Cong's gaze.
The atmosphere is a bit stiff.
Shen Cong didn't pay attention and continued his work.
…
At night, in a stone house outside the camp.
Zhao Yalan was sitting on the bench, while Li Weijun was lying on the table writing and drawing. A weak light was driven by the camp's diesel motor.
"You went to test Boss Huang?" Li Weijun asked without raising his head.
Zhao Yalan touched her neck with lingering fear: "Yes."
"The test came out?"
"It's very strong. I can't react. It's easy to dodge bullets at this speed. If he wants to kill me... I'm afraid it's no different than killing an ordinary person."
Li Weijun frowned: "Now that you have been tested, restrain your emotions and perform your duties in the interim government with peace of mind. Boss Huang has abided by his promise not to interfere in the work of the interim government, so you should not be willful again. No matter what Who is he? At least the establishment of a provisional government is beneficial, so don’t oppose it for the sake of opposition."
"Didn't he have a hand in it? Wang Yingying, Zhang Youhai, none of them are his, even Zhu Haifeng. Didn't he have a hand in those firefighters who followed Zhu Haifeng back... Captain Li, I seriously doubt that, This person named Huang definitely has bad intentions."
"My opinion on this matter is that it is important not to focus on the business. No matter what his reasons are, at least it has not harmed the interests of the camp now, so we should not do things with emotions."
"I don't care whether Liu Zheng lives or lives. Anyway, I want him to die early. But Liu Zheng's fire truck, jeep, van, and weapons all fell into the hands of Huang, and he has no intention of returning them. what to do?"
"Tomorrow I will ask Zhu Haifeng and ask him to negotiate with Boss Huang... At least the jeep and bread must be taken back. Without a car camp, everything will be inconvenient. It's late at night, so go back and get some rest early."
"Captain Li, before I leave, I still want to say that I don't trust Huang, Liu Zheng, Wei Lu, Zhu Ran, the ten firefighters, and today's Ran Tai. I will kill you if you say I will." Can you believe he is a good person?"
Li Weijun rubbed his forehead and felt helpless about Zhao Yalan's temper: "I also know that using fists to fight for the right to speak is a very sad thing, but this is something that can't be helped. Now it is a collapsed world after a disaster... right? Is it important to be a good person? Can you say that Liu Zheng is a good person? But haven’t we been presiding over work under the leadership of Liu Zheng? If we can’t contact the government and the provincial military region for a day, we have to abide by the rules made with our fists... Xiao Zhao, go back and rest quickly, and think carefully about whether this is true."
…
Zhu Haifeng found Shen Cong the next day and talked about the van and the jeep. As for Liu Zheng's fire truck, he didn't mention it. He obviously knew that it was impossible to get the fire truck back. This was a secret among iron men.
"I can give you the jeep and the van, but as my spoils, you need to trade them."
Zhu Haifeng said simply: "Okay, what can I give in exchange?"
"Because of the grapes."
"Yinpu? I have to go back and discuss this with Li Weijun and the others. I haven't been to the grape forest yet, so I don't know much about Yinpu."
Shen Cong said: "The grape tree should be an evolutionary fruit tree, and the grapes it produces are rich in the evolutionary factors they say, which have a strengthening effect on evolvers. However, if you consume too much of this fruit, it will no longer provide the strengthening effect. The amount I need is enough to saturate my body.”
"How much does this level require?"
"About forty or fifty pounds."
"I'll go back and ask. I can't guarantee that I can get so much, but I will make it happen."
The forty or fifty kilograms of Yin grapes is almost half of the current output of the Yin grape forest. This was unanimously opposed by several evolutionists.
There are more than thirty grapes in the Yin grape grove, but the yield of each grape is only about five or six kilograms. In addition to the consumption of the camp, there are currently less than a hundred kilograms of Yin grapes hanging on the trees.
A very important factor why this Yin grape grove was chosen by Liu Zheng as the camp was that the fruiting period of the Yin grape vines had changed. After the last batch of Yin grapes were picked, another batch of small bunches of grapes had been produced on the trees, which had already blossomed and produced fruit. It won't take long before it matures and can be eaten for a long time.
So when he heard that the camp management was reluctant to trade two cars for forty or fifty kilograms of grapes, Shen Cong was very dissatisfied: "Thirty kilograms, this is the lowest price I am willing to exchange. If not, this transaction will be terminated." No need to proceed. I’ll get it my own way.”
In the end, the camp, which was in desperate need of transportation due to Shen Cong's pressure, accepted the deal.
Thirty pounds and two cars were returned from the grape trade.
The remaining bone metal weapons and firearms were also exchanged for twenty kilograms of grapes. For these weapons, Shen Cong was not willing to exchange them at first. Even though many of the weapons in his car were of no use, more than ten pistols were confiscated in succession. Weapons are always dangerous in the hands of others.
But the Grape Grove Camp does need weapons to defend against possible attacks by evolved beasts, and also needs weapons for hunting.
Besides, these weapons had limited damage to him. After repeated consideration, Shen Cong agreed to the exchange and got a qjy88 general-purpose machine gun without ammunition.
