A man over [-] years old, who hasn't touched a woman for more than ten years, is a little scared when he has a chance, and there are no vicious dogs to prey on him, which is enough to show that he is an honest man who didn't get along much in society in the old world.
That's right, the forest police, wandering in the deep mountains and old forests for years, must have some time to go home, wife and children to warm up the kang, not to mention whether there is any spare money, and there is not enough time.
But, it's not a big deal, men adapt to this kind of activity very quickly, and they don't need to listen to anyone's instructions, just like eating and drinking, they are born with it.As long as you don't get too excited and emotional, nothing will happen.
As for whether you will encounter temptations such as beauty tricks, then don't even think about it, 100% will.Still don't worry, the reason why I am willing to bring these people back to the alliance-controlled area is that I have enough understanding and trust in their character.
In the future, there will only be more and more temptations like this. Apart from women, there are also money, status, and power, each of which is more attractive than the other.These tests cannot be avoided and must be faced calmly.
"Hey... Hero Tomb of Wenrou Township, these words really make sense." His own thoughts were seen through, and Hu Yang didn't feel too embarrassed, or he was used to it.Picking up the water ladle and pouring some water on the hot stone, the body was enveloped in the rising steam, as if the bones and joints of the whole body were softened.
Think about it not long ago when I was still fighting for my life in the zombie-controlled area. I ate my last meal without a second meal. In a blink of an eye, I dared to spend dozens of meals to come to this kind of place. It was like a dream, especially unreal.
Chapter 648 Hero Tomb
"Fuck, the one who lives among thousands of flowers and doesn't touch his body is the hero, and the one who can't move when he sees a woman, and the bear... Tiger, you said that after we earn money, the brothers will marry their wives again. Do you still have the courage to kill whoever you say you want?"
Don't look at Hong Tao's sarcasm, but he knows in his heart that Hu Yang's words are correct, Ruan Ruanxiang really drains people's fighting spirit.But this thing is human nature, and no one can hide from it except a monster like myself who is no longer a person.
"...I...I don't know either. Brother Mouse, are you worried that the brothers will be separated one day?"
Hu Yang opened his mouth, he wanted to categorically say no, but he patted his conscience, he really didn't dare to make such a guarantee.The most important thing is that I already yearn for that kind of life. Even if I don't have the money to marry a wife, it's good to have a child.
"Maybe not in a short period of time. As life gets better and better, there will inevitably be more and more thoughts. But you and I can't stop this kind of thing, and we can't predict it. Just do your best and obey the destiny, and leave the rest to you." To God."
Speaking of human nature, Hong Tao is also at a loss.After living so many lives, I have tried everything, but I can't do anything about human nature. Even if I know the general trend, I can't do anything, I can only watch.
"How about...or let's go back! With your treasures, as long as we don't go to Beer City and Yining, we can live anywhere!"
Hu Yang rubbed his chin, very unwilling to let these dead brothers end up in a mess, but he couldn't think of a good way to get the best of both worlds, so he decided to play hard.
"Hahaha... Tiger, what can I say about you? People go to high places and water flows to low places. It is easy to go from frugal to extravagant and it is difficult to go from extravagant to frugal. This is the experience of our ancestors summed up for thousands of years. It is difficult. Could it be that you want to break the rules by relying on the two of us?"
"Why were you willing to come here with me back then? What did I promise? Didn't you want to live a good life! Let's see, I just saw the good life, and I regretted it again. I want to take my brothers to continue to live a hard life. Are you talking like a human?"
Hong Tao was already lying on the wooden bench and dozed off, but he nearly rolled down laughing after listening to Hu Yang's approach.Sometimes this guy is very stable and wise, but sometimes he seems too generous, and he really feels like he's doing something for his brother.
Why not two ribs?Because piercing the two ribs is easy to die, and the piercing leg at most bleeds and hurts.In fact, if someone is willing to stick a knife in your leg, it is already God's blessing, don't care too much about where to stick it.
"It's not enough to stay, and it's not okay to leave, so what should you say!" Hu Yang was a little annoyed. There were not so many reasons in the team before, so he could survive.But since the arrival of this hero, life has become much better, but there have also been more reasons, and there are all kinds of reasons for nothing, which is annoying.
"If I know the way, I will become a god... I didn't plan to think of a way, I just complained!" Hong Tao was also annoyed, and he sighed a few words.
"Hey... You said that the building materials can't be produced, and the apartment can't be opened. Seeing that it is very difficult to pick up junk and sell them in the red zone, we can't really count on Fat Sheep's car repair stall for dinner, can we?"
Usually at such a time, the two of them should roll up their arms and sleeves and fight, no matter how much resentment and emotion there is, it will dissipate after a fight.But at this time, Hu Yang didn't want to be beaten like a pig's head, and there would be girls coming to serve him later, even if it didn't matter, he had to maintain the dignity that a man should have.
"I can still think of a way to pick up junk, but I don't know if it will work or not. Don't worry, if it doesn't work, I will think of other ways... In fact, we forgot one thing at the beginning, why didn't we start from Beijiang Drive out a flock of sheep."
"Didn't you hear what Lu Wei'an said, the safety zone in the north of the city is specialized in agriculture. With sheep breeding, and Benzhu is a herdsman, I can also do grazing work. It should be good for us to have a small ranch, right?"
Hong Tao couldn't say he had forgotten about how to live in the future, and he didn't take it too seriously.To him, the matter of making money is the easiest and most low-level, and now there are so many troubles to be solved, he simply can't care about how to make money.
However, since Hu Yang asked, he couldn't refuse to answer at all, so he had to throw a reassuring pill.So another nonsense came out, and it couldn't be completely made up. If we knew that the alliance also raised a lot of livestock, it would not be a fantasy to bring a batch of sheep from Xinjiang province.
Ever since he ate Yili mutton, Hong Tao lost interest in all the mutton he had eaten before.The smell of mutton is not good. Every time the fresh mutton made by Crimea has no smell of mutton, no matter whether it is roasted, eaten as a pilaf or stewed, it is also very tender.
The key point is not the cooking technique, nor the secret recipe ingredients that are passed on from men to women. To put it bluntly, there is only one point, the type of sheep, some sheep are not smelly and the meat is delicious, how to do it is delicious!
"... Let's do another rainy night attack. Those companies are not good things. Look at how the refugees in the New Sixth District have been defrauded by them. They can't even afford a pair of shoes. We took their black money , can it be regarded as eliminating harm for the people?"
Hu Yang never expected that this hero would want to be a shepherd, let alone take these words seriously.He did have an immature idea, and he planned to bring it up to see if it would work.
"Damn, tiger, your mind is depraved. You plan to become a robber just for some money. You are still a robber who kills and steals without leaving a living! Last time we were forced to do so. Although those people are not good, they are not capital crimes. We are all survivors, we managed to survive, but in the end, you were all killed because of your lack of money, do you feel safe?"
"Don't stare, I have killed many people, but not once for money. Well, you don't have to worry about money. If I say there is a way, there must be a way. Think about how to deal with those people at night. One of them is a human being, and there is no fool who can get along in this kind of place."
Being a robber is definitely not an option. Hong Tao doesn't care how many people he kills, as long as he really deserves to be killed.But if it's for money, it's unnecessary, that will lower your bottom line, and it's not worth it.
Hong Tao didn't see what service Hu Yang enjoyed in the end, but he could imagine it.The one who pinched his feet was a woman in her 30s, and her beauty can only be said to be not ugly.
If this technician is really the top card here as Yang Shuo said, it is not difficult to imagine the quality of Hu Yang next door.But it can't be said that Master Shen arranged it intentionally, nor can it be said that Yang Shuo is playing tricks, it's mainly due to the constraints of the times.
The ratio of male to female among the survivors is already out of balance, and most of them are still living in the base. An entertainment city opened by and for refugees is already very good. It cannot be compared with the old world.
What is more satisfying is the carefulness of the master. Not long after pinching the feet, Yang Shuo walked in with a few people in chef's clothes.Fish porridge, bread with jam, fried eggs, freshly squeezed juice, milk, pickles, and fruit plates are all on the bedside table.
In addition to the abundance of food, the timing was also very accurate, and it followed the pace of the tiger next door.Presumably, his full service was finished, and the food came in 10 minutes.The euphemistic name is that bathing consumes a lot of energy and fills the stomach.
After eating and drinking enough, he put on new clothes and shoes, and walked out of the bathing center accompanied by Yang Shuo. The smiling Master Shen was already waiting in the middle of the yard.The enthusiasm remained the same, and they greeted the two of them into the small building on the west side.
The second floor here is actually quite a big bar, and there are just wine bottles on the wall, a large part of which Hong Tao has never seen before.But at this time, the bar didn't seem to be open yet, the lights were dim and deserted, and only a young man in a black vest was behind the bar scrubbing glasses.
"Boss Hu, Brother Zhou, please sit down... There is still some time before dinner, let's take a rest here and drink something, tea, coffee, fruit wine?"
Shen Nan chose the group of sofas farthest from the bar. Several kinds of cigarettes and shredded tobacco, as well as lighters and matches were already placed on the coffee table. He waited for the young man behind the bar to come over before asking.
"Tea!" Tiger was still reticent as usual, but his eyes were much firmer than when he first came, and his expression was more natural.
Chapter 649
"Is there still coffee now?" Hong Tao agrees with Tiger's choice. The persuasion session must be indispensable at night. No matter how you avoid it, you can't drink less. It's better not to drink now.
But after hearing the coffee, he was a little puzzled. As far as he knew, even green coffee beans could be stored for no more than two or three years.
"These are beans from the beginning of the year. The new beans will only be available around the Spring Festival. The taste is still good." Master Shen nodded seriously and strongly recommended it to Hong Tao.
"The alliance still grows coffee beans?" Hong Tao was even more confused. Could it be that the alliance specializes in growing coffee?If this is the case, it would be a bit too much. Many survivors are still not full of food, so you guys are starting to think about how to enjoy it!
"Oh, no, no, no, no, the north doesn't grow well. The coffee beans here are all arabica grown in Yunnan, which is a specialty of the Southwest Alliance, and the quantity is not large." Master Shen said very lightly, without mentioning the status.
"Then I'll have a cup and taste it..." But Hong Tao knew in his heart that someone in the Southwest Alliance planted coffee beans in Yunnan, and then took it out as a special product and shipped it all the way as goods. The price might be very, very expensive.
Should it be said that in this era when there are still many refugees who are hungry, there are people who can drink something that is worth several meals?Hong Tao thinks it should be very normal.
Ever since human beings got rid of primitive society, there has been a gap between rich and poor all the time for millions of years. As long as the degree is not too serious, it is not harmful and can also promote social development.
The average distribution method only exists in the primitive communes with extremely low productivity levels and the future with greatly developed productivity levels.Obviously, the current survivors can't reach both, and if they insist on deliberate pursuit, it violates the inevitable law of the development of things.
Even the military management and planning distribution system of the East Asian Alliance is not evenly distributed. If they really do this, they will be in bad luck.
"Boss Hu, I am a businessman. Although the business is not big, I still have some friends in the six safe areas in the south of the city. I heard that you encountered some troubles a few days ago. Is it true? As today's host, Can I ask about the general process, so I can have an idea in my heart."
The steaming tea and coffee were brought up quickly, and Shen Nan smiled and waited for the guests to make a polite comment after tasting them, and then lit the cigarette for a while, and then started talking.However, contrary to his smiling appearance, his mouth is straightforward.
"It's not a big deal. Our brothers may not know the rules here for the first time, and offended someone by mistake. Mrs. Xiushan and Brother Hu also talked to me a few days ago. It was all a misunderstanding. It's a pity, I don't have Boss Shen's ostentation at my place, so I'll treat the two old people poorly."
What Shen Nan asked was Populus euphratica, Hong Tao could only hold his coffee and keep silent.Fortunately, it's not that Hu Yang can't say these words. In fact, it doesn't matter if the words are beautiful or not after calming down, the momentum is enough.
"It's okay, it's okay, Mrs. Xiushan and Brother Hu will be there at night, so Boss Hu will just toast two more... There is something I don't know whether I should say it or not..." Shen Nan laughed, pretending to ponder shape.
"Boss Shen, if you have something to say, please tell me straight up. I'm a rough person. If I'm too tactful, I won't understand it, and it's easy to make trouble!" Hu Yang opened his mouth and drank most of the cup of tea in one gulp. With a rough voice, he looked like the leader of the gold diggers in Licheng back then.
"Ah... that's right. I also heard from Mrs. Xiushan and Brother Hu that Boss Hu doesn't plan to intervene in the building materials and apartment business, but it takes a lot of money to repair the house and support the brothers. I don't know how to develop it in the future?"
Shen Nan was a little surprised by Hu Yang's behavior, it didn't seem to be consistent with what he heard from Mrs. Xiushan and Feihu Sun.But it's not a big problem, so I settled down and continued the topic.
"Well...we really haven't thought about it. Boss Shen, you have opened up such a big business and are familiar with the ground. Is there a better way to make a living?" Hu Yang still couldn't help but cast a glance at Hong Tao. He is really not used to this kind of seemingly unintentional but actually important chat!
"Don't you plan to start a labor service company?" Shen Nan seized this moment and glanced out of the corner of her eye, and found that Hong Tao was studying the patterns in the coffee cup with her head down, and then she turned her eyes back.
"Labor service company! That wicked thing... we brothers can't do that business!" Hu Yang really almost cursed out loud, but realized the occasion and the target in the middle and quickly changed his words.
"How many stalls should we set up in the market? Among the people who come tonight is Boss Bai from the Great Ocean Road Market. He should be willing to provide some convenience." Every time Shen Nan mentioned a business, he glanced at Hong Tao from the corner of his eye.
He couldn't explain why, but he always felt that Boss Hu in front of him didn't seem like a man of his word, but this man who was wearing sunglasses and studying coffee cups from beginning to end was more intriguing.No specific reason, just a feeling.
"Oh... We brothers are not very familiar with buying and selling things. The main reason is that we have a quick temper and can't bear the pennies. I'm afraid it's enough. Dafu, what do you think?"
Hu Yang really couldn't make it up anymore, and he forgot the specific routines of the several plans discussed before, but he would find a way to make up for it, and poked Hong Tao carelessly with his toe, looking like a big brother.
"Yes, anyway, I don't have that much free time! Master Shen, is there any business that is not too troublesome but fun and can make a lot of money?"
Hong Tao raised his head slowly and frowned, as if he wasn't very interested in these topics.But the eldest brother let it be said and had to say it, so he simply threw the question to Shen Nan for once and for all.
"Uh..." Shen Nan's heart twitched, feeling like a bad dish, could it be that these guys really fell in love with the entertainment city?
Having fun and earning a lot of money, isn't this just an entertainment city in the eyes of outsiders.As for whether there is no trouble, no one can feel it without being in it, and no one is willing to listen to complaints.
"I'm having fun and making money here..." But the conversation can't be stopped suddenly at this point, and it's not too bad to get the truth out.
"What's so fun about serving people!" Unexpectedly, Hong Tao raised his eyebrows and turned back without any scruples.
"Hey, why are you talking to Master Shen? There are no rules! Go ahead and drink your coffee!" Hu Yang didn't know if Hong Tao did it on purpose, but when he saw Shen Nan's smile was slightly sluggish, he hurriedly reprimanded him hypocritically. some.
"Brother Zhou is right. No matter how big my place is, it's still a job of serving people. It's really not suitable for Boss Hu... Oh, if you count it, the rest are small shops, Small workshops, small factories, there is nothing to do."
Shen Nan's expression and mood were completely opposite. When he heard that these people didn't plan to touch the entertainment industry, no matter how watery the words were, he let go of his concerns.
From now on, he is really going to help think about what else to do, but counting with his fingers, either the profit is too small or the technical requirements are too high, and there is no one who can touch it.
"Master Shen, I'm looking for a job. When I came here from the train station, I took a carriage. If we also get a few carriages to go out, can we do some work?" At this moment, Hong Tao suddenly interrupted, An industry that no one has mentioned before is proposed, transportation!
"Oh, running transportation... It's not impossible, but this industry needs a license issued by the alliance and regular application for a pass. The management is very strict. The new refugees have just arrived for the first two years, so it may not be easy to apply for it."
Shen Nan first looked at Populus euphratica, seeing that he had no intention of objecting, then slowly talked about how the transportation industry here works, and then made a judgment based on the current conditions, which was basically a no.
"Well, I won't let you do this or that, why don't you go ahead and grab it... Forget it, I'll drink coffee!" When it comes to acting, it really depends on talent, but acquired hard work is also indispensable .
Hong Tao was not so comfortable in acting before, but after playing different roles passively and actively throughout his life, his acting skills have gradually changed from unfamiliarity to proficiency.
I thought I had reached the ceiling, but I didn't expect that this time I came back from northern Xinjiang and suddenly found that it has improved a little bit.Usually he is the calm and calm Zhi Duoxing, leading everyone to open roads and fill bridges when encountering waters, while the tiger acts according to orders, sometimes reckless and puzzled.
At this time, he and the tiger switched positions, showing the little brother who is illiterate, fierce, and violent.If the tiger can also perform exceptionally well, playing the boss who is unfathomable, deep in the city, scheming and suspicious, the scene will be a great success.
Chapter 650
"Don't pay attention to him, don't pay attention to him... It's not that simple to run transportation. In such a big city, it takes a few months to master the roads, you know it!"
It's a pity that the tiger will only try to imitate according to the plan. At this time, he should not speak, and smoke with his head depressed. It would be more beneficial for Shen Nan to continue to say what he wanted to say.
"Hehehe... Brother Zhou is also anxious about business, understandable, understandable... In fact, it's not impossible to do transportation, it's just that it's more troublesome to operate..."
Just now Hong Tao stopped in time and didn't say anything, but Shen Nan heard it in his ears and felt cold in his heart.This time he didn't run away, the people from Youlong Company must have been killed by this group of people, and they must have taken the money.
No, it seems to be a bit addicted. If I really can't find a serious business to do, I'm afraid I will have to think about it in the future.At that time, it will be Feihu Company, Xiushan Apartment or the Third Ring Entertainment City, it's really uncertain!
If I put it half a day ago, I would definitely not bear it. I must encourage other people to join forces to clear this time bomb, even if I pay a little more manpower and financial resources for it.
But what the master said just now rang in his ears, as long as the interests of the entertainment city were not touched, why would he take the lead in offending these desperadoes?If the desperadoes have property and family, can they still get up as desperadoes?
Instead of going head-to-head with this group of people at this time, it is better to save the country in a curve, use a more ingenious and less noticeable way to change, use the appearance of friends and good people to stabilize these people first, and then slowly find opportunities to deal with them.
At this time, a word suddenly appeared in my mind, transportation!The transportation industry in the safe zone is indeed not very easy to enter. You must have a license issued by the alliance and a pass reviewed by the safe zone management office every year before you can operate.But as long as there are relevant contacts and enough money, it is not impossible to operate.
Then should I sacrifice my face and ask someone to help clear the way for this group of people?If it's another industry, it definitely shouldn't be, but maybe you can try it in the transportation industry.
Speaking of this industry, I am afraid that most of the refugees in the safe zone are not very clear about the inside story, but not including myself.Speaking of which, it seems that this industry is the only one in the capital safety zone that is regarded as a monopoly.It is not monopolized by the alliance, nor by the refugees, but by one person.
The man's name is Sun Changzhong, he is less than 50 years old, and he used to work in the Union Transportation Department.Soon after the establishment of the safe zone, he also resigned from his position and left the base to become a refugee.
But refugees are not exactly the same as refugees. After Sun Changzhong came out, he immediately established a transportation team composed of refugees. After several years of development and growth, he basically monopolized the transportation market in the safe zone.Not only the south of the city, but also the north and east of the city, and all the safe areas.
It's not that no one has been involved in the transportation industry during the period, but none of them can compete with the two transportation companies Changfeng and Zhongyi.It is said that there are two families, but in fact it is just to deceive people. The big boss behind it is still Sun Changzhong.
All the competitors will eventually either dissolve and go bankrupt, or join their companies, pay a license and pass rental fee, give up the bulk of the profits, and become part-time workers.
Why there is such an ending? In summary, there are three points.First, Sun Changzhong can get a lot of transportation business from various departments of the alliance. With a stable source of income, he can quickly expand the scale and occupy the market share.
Second, he has a very deep alliance background and can get obsolete vehicles and horses from the Ministry of Communications and even the army.As the saying goes, if a worker wants to do a good job, he must first sharpen his tools. If the transporter lacks suitable transport tools, how can he compete.
Thirdly, it should be said that it is also the most important point. Some people in the alliance deliberately blocked other competitors, especially in terms of license issuance and pass review. It is very difficult for anyone to handle it, and the various conditions are extremely harsh.
Even if one is lucky enough to get the license through all the procedures, the annual review is still a nightmare.A little bit of negligence was caught by the management office, and I couldn't get a pass this year, and I couldn't carry out any transportation business.
Shen Nan didn't want to trick Hu Yang and his group to apply for a transportation company license, and then be forced to go bankrupt by various cumbersome procedures.In that case, not only did it not solve the trouble, but it also directly pointed the finger at himself, which was meaningless.
He wanted to persuade this group of people to rent Sun Changzhong's license plate and hang out with Changfeng and Zhongyi Company to have a drink of soup.In this way, Hu Yang and his group will have a stable income and earn a living, and they will no longer think about taking risks.
Of course, there is another insidious thought that he and no one will tell, that is, Sun Changzhong only sells licenses and the right to use passes, and does not manage the affiliated companies.When the alliance has a job, he will pick up the skins first, and then the two companies will pick up the skins, and finally subcontract to the team with the highest bid.
As a result, all transport teams affiliated with these two companies still have to find work on their own, and at the same time bear the pressure of competition that is not easy at all.
Those who run transportation have been running around all year round. The average personality is relatively ruthless and dark, and they will really think of tricks when they are impatient.For example, taking advantage of the opportunity of a long-distance running, ambushing and snatching other people's convoys halfway, killing people together, and throwing them anywhere, that's really not seeing people alive or dead.
Although the alliance has regulations in this regard, it is limited to the safe area, and the security team can't control the three-point area of an acre. It is even more impossible for the army to go to war for the disappearance of a few refugees.
Therefore, although transportation is a way to make money, even if it is not uncommon to be skinned by Sun Changzhong, the risk is much higher than other industries. Probably, refugees who know the inside story really dare not get involved easily.
But Shen Nan felt that Hu Yang and his group were more suitable for this business. They were not afraid of fighting bravely.
If he really got mixed up in the future, then he had pointed out a clear path for him, and it would be a big favor anyway, and it would be a big help for no reason, which would do more good than harm to the development of the entertainment city.
