From Zero to Hero in the Doomsday - Chapter 248
Chapter 248 Golden City
After a bitter night, Xia Fei’s eyes darkened. However, Chen Guangda still hadn’t been able to wait until Chen Guangda came over. Even the little fox spirits on the other side had been guarding her empty girlfriend for the whole night. However, they didn’t know that they had starved to death last night. They were so tired that they couldn’t even close their legs. Chen Guangda had practically worked on Yan Qing for the whole night, and had also tossed Liu Sha to the sky.
Xia Fei’s grievances could be imagined. She cleaned up inside and outside. Although she had secretly prepared a method to prevent Chen Guangda from really pushing him down, she had spent a lot of effort to dress up. Who would have thought that the shameless one would actually stand up for her? Furthermore, when she rushed out of the door angrily, she was shocked to discover that Chen Guangda had actually gone on another expedition.
“Keep in touch at all times. Don’t let us worry …”
Yan Qing and Liu Sha stood side by side on the street and waved their hands at Chen Guangda in the car. Xia Fei hurriedly ran over to look at the car. Unexpectedly, Chen Guangda did not even look at her. After waving his hand at Yan Qing, she directly left the town. Xia Fei had no choice but to bravely ask Yan Qing, “Where are they going? Didn’t they just come back?”
“Go to Golden City and avenge the dead brothers. Didn’t Zhu Fei tell you …”
Yan Qing turned around and smiled. However, Xia Fei felt that there was something else in her smile. She shook her head guiltily and hurriedly ran away. However, she secretly climbed onto the hillside and muttered to herself as she looked at the few cars that were far away, “Country bumpkin! We will definitely return safely!”
…
“Are you sure you can help us sneak in? If something goes wrong, everyone will be very ugly …”
Chen Guangda sat on the passenger seat and looked back at Wei Kongkong. Little Ah San immediately swore an oath and said, “Don’t worry, boss! Not everyone lives in the city. There are many small groups nearby. There are many black households without registration. All you have to do is pay some money to complete the procedures to enter the city and you will be able to get through without any obstruction!”
“Then will our goods be handled properly …”
Zhu Fei also looked at him from the rearview mirror, but Wei Kongkong said nonchalantly, “Goods are taxed when they enter the city. Ten points of personal income tax, they can’t wait for you to bring more goods in. Besides, the surrounding small groups will bring more goods into the city. As long as they don’t pull arms, no one will care about you!”
“Bullshit! What are we pulling if we don’t pull arms …”
Chen Guangda glared at him angrily. Wei Kongkong immediately patted his head and said, “Oh, fuck, I forgot. However, dozens of guns are nothing. As long as no one sees the bazooka, they will pretend that they can’t see it. In any case, there are quite a few people sneaking into the city with guns!”
“Tell me about the major powers of Golden City …”
Chen Guangda slowly leaned back into his seat. Wei Kongkong said, “Golden City is a tripartite structure, Mayor Li Jinchen is the most awesome. The city guards in his hands are strong, followed by Admiral Wang Ruifeng. Although there aren’t many of them, they have a stranded destroyer. There is also Ke Zhengnan from the militia guild. That old man is a local snake. Almost all groups, big or small, have connections with him. Anyone should give him some face! ”
“Brother Guang! Are we going to leave after taking revenge? Do we still have any long-term plans?”
Zhu Fei turned his head to look at Chen Guangda, and Chen Guangda pondered for a moment before saying, “If we can occupy a place in Golden City, we can consider moving over. Mining Town will be used as a branch base. However, it’s still too early to talk about this after we’ve finished observing everything.”
“I wish I could move there. After all, places with a lot of people have potential for development. We still have too few people …”
Zhu Fei nodded his head and started to ponder. Unexpectedly, Wei Kongkong suddenly opened his mouth and was about to burst into song. He turned around excitedly like a loach. However, Chen Quan suddenly slapped his head and shouted angrily, “If you dare to scream again, I will immediately shoot you to death!”
“If you don’t sing, then you won’t sing. Why are you so fierce …”
Wei Kongkong pitifully shrank into a corner, but he still couldn’t help but beat his legs and beat the rhythm. His body twisted as violently as a muscle. Chen Quan rolled his eyes and didn’t care about it anymore. He also leaned against the window and looked at the sky thoughtfully, as if he was imagining what a large settlement camp in the apocalypse would look like.
Chen Guangda brought a total of six cars this time, Apart from the four inconspicuous modified pickup trucks, there were also two medium-sized van trucks, and none of the heavy weapons. What they wanted this time was to enter the city in a low-key manner, trying not to attract anyone’s attention. However, the road between them and Golden City had not been opened, so this journey lasted for five to six days.
By about the morning of the sixth day, The air had already started to become obviously humid, and there was a fishy smell unique to the ocean. However, before noon, they finally saw the magnificent sea. However, unlike the gray coastline of the past, without a large amount of pollution, the entire coastline had unexpectedly returned to its yearning azure color.
“We’re here! That’s the place ahead …”
Wei Kongkong, who was covered in shit, suddenly got up and excitedly pointed into the distance. Chen Guangda immediately raised his head and looked around. He saw a large building lying between a few small hills. The building was close to the seaside. From afar, he could see a row of tall fences that were much taller than the ones they were building.
“Golden City Tourism Resort …”
A huge billboard suddenly jumped into his eyes. His eyes were filled with naked gold bars and gold coins, making him look like he was in a Las Vegas casino. However, this billboard undoubtedly showed that this resort camp was built on the original resort area.
“This place was originally a gold mine. After digging for gold, it was changed to a resort. That’s how the name of Golden City came to be …”
Wei Kongkong introduced with interest. However, the terrain here was truly unique. Not only was it sandwiched between a few mountains, there was only one path to enter and exit. Even behind it was a magnificent sea. As long as one blocked the enemy, there was no need to worry about a sneak attack from behind.
“Pull over and tell the brothers to hide their weapons …”
Chen Guangda waved his hand and stopped the convoy. The twenty plus soldiers immediately jumped down and hid their weapons in the middle of the truck. However, Chen Guangda still kept a few samples. If he said that there were no guns, no one else would believe him. He had to hand over a few of them for a walk.
After hiding the weapons, the convoy set off again, As a resettlement camp of 100,000 people, There will definitely be a lot of convoys coming out for supplies, Before they could reach the city gate, they encountered a few passing convoys. However, these convoys weren’t very large. There were only four or five cars at most. However, the harvests of these people didn’t seem to be very good. Most of them were worthless living materials. Not to mention, they didn’t even let go of many rotten wild vegetables and rotten coconuts.
“First Settlement Camp …”
The convoy finally arrived at the city gate. Raising his head was a row of large golden words. The name of the First Settlement Battalion was marked conspicuously. The city walls that were more than twenty meters tall were filled with heavily armed patrolling soldiers. He could also see the figures of many heavy weapons. Moreover, the walls were stained with grease-like black blood. This was enough to show that this place had also been attacked by a large number of living corpses.
However, the city gate was even more lively than Chen Guangda had imagined. The square in front of the door was actually bustling with traffic. Many cars and people were waiting in line for them to enter the city. Many laborers and porters were also helping unload the goods. There were even many Flowing Warblers who were openly soliciting customers. After reaching a deal, they actually went straight to the tent on the roadside. It was obvious that the shaking tent was working on the spot.
“Are you all doing this on the roadside?”
Chen Guangda looked at Wei Kongkong in puzzlement. These old drivers were a little too anxious, However, Wei Kongkong did not find it strange and said, “Because it is illegal to find a young miss in the city. There are anti-pornography operations in the city almost every month. Everyone went out to do things for the sake of safety. However, it is fake to clean up pornography in the city. It is true to use a fine to earn money. If you are caught, you can leave without even entering the police station!”
“F*ck! What a good way to make money …”
Chen Guangda shook his head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. Suddenly, he felt that his leadership was too benevolent. Wei Kongkong patted his seat and said, “Just park the car outside. You are not allowed to drive in the city. The goods can be directly exchanged for cash at the exchange counter in front of us, or we can let those laborers pull them in. Let’s register and hand over some money to get in!”
“Let’s go!”
Chen Guangda gently waved his hand forward. The convoy immediately came to a halt on an open space. The laborers who were waiting for work immediately rushed forward, dragging crude carts or tricycles and shouting desperately around them. All of these people were yellow and skinny, and there were many gentlemen who knew at a glance that they weren’t used to physical work.
“The few of you stay here, the rest of you scram …”
Wei Kongkong swaggered out of the car and only chose a few of the strongest ones to stay behind. Those laborers who might have been the boss or the leader had no choice but to leave in disappointment. The remaining few people immediately began to unload the goods happily. However, Chen Guangda said, “Leave the urgently needed supplies behind and drag the rest to the exchange office!”
“Don’t worry! We won’t let anyone hack our money …”
Wei Kongkong patted his chest confidently. Although this fellow was an Indian Ah San, he had been here for so many years. He could be considered a small local snake that knew the streets and alleys well. Under his leadership, more than half of the supplies were quickly exchanged for cash.
However, the cash here must have been printed and distributed by the camp itself. When Chen Guangda took it over, it was actually all made of soft plastic. He even came up with a few unique anti-counterfeiting designs. The face of the notes also varied from 10 cents to 100 cents. They were directly distinguished by different colors. The maximum face value was the same as before, a conspicuous crimson color.
“Did I only get this much money for this cart of supplies? Are you kidding me?”
Chen Guangda patted a large stack of plastic cards. He had only counted 3,000 yuan. One had to know that what he exchanged was the hardest grain. No matter where it was, it was definitely a hot item.
“My taxi brother! If I cheat you out of a dime, I’ll die a terrible death. Brother Dafei was the one who supervised the whole process just now …”
Wei Kong flipped out his pocket and cried out with a face full of innocence, “Your boss doesn’t understand the market. You only need two to three hundred yuan to buy an innocent girl in the city. Normal people only earn thirty yuan a month. You have enough money to marry a house full of wives. You can’t calculate according to the previous prices. These laborers have to pay twenty cents!”
“Yes, boss! The money is valuable now. We can only earn two bowls of noodles after a tired day …”
A group of laborers nodded in agreement. Chen Guangda and the others were secretly speechless when they heard this. Since the value of this manpower is so low, it is enough to show that the living conditions of the entire Golden City are not good. However, Wei Kongkong still smiled sinisterly and said, “Hurry up and leave. I’ll take you guys to experience the elegance of the Golden City. This place is much more fun than the previous city. I guarantee that you guys will forget to come back!”
