Catastrophe

Chapter 71: 1 beast called desire

Ning Zhe stood at the corner of the street, saw the mercenary naming his name, and looked at the man: "I'm Ning Zhe, what's the matter?"

"This is your letter of appointment and certificate, please keep it!" The mercenary handed a kraft paper bag to Ning Zhe: "From today onwards, you will be the chief of this block. There are 100 families living here. All are under your jurisdiction. You have the right to manage public security here and to select workers to enter the factory. You need to send the adjusted list of migrant workers to the corresponding guard post No. 11 every week. If there are any special circumstances, you can also enter with a certificate. Outer city, report to the law enforcement team at the guard post!"

"I'll be the head of the security?" Ning Zhe was slightly startled and looked at the courtyard behind him: "Then what about our original head of security here?"

"I don't know, I heard that it must have died of illness." The mercenary has no interest in the affairs of refugees. If it wasn't for the appointment of Ning Zhe as the head of the security, it was the housekeeper of Pei's third master's house who spoke. I ran this trip in person, and then pointed to the yard behind Ning Zhe: "From today onwards, the right to live in this yard belongs to you, and I also brought you a ton of coal as a reward for the guide this time. , hurry up and unload the truck!"

"Okay, thank you!" Ning Zhe hesitated for a moment, and took the bag from the other party's hand. The position of security guard is not as good as a dog in the eyes of the fortress people, but it still has a certain status in the refugee area. Because this location can arrange the number of migrant workers in each household, in today's winter season, it is very helpful for a family to be able to go to one more person to work in the factory.

Ning Zhe took over this position not to please the fortress people, but to make his position more stable, and at the same time to avoid being framed by people like Hu Zhida at the beginning, especially if he could receive one person's supplies every day, he could also Let them have a higher chance of survival, because not only do prices rise sharply in winter, but in order to maintain physical strength, people rarely choose to sell their rations.

Ning Zhe didn't believe the mercenary's claim that Su Fei died of illness. Although he didn't communicate with Su Fei many times, Su Fei left him with the impression of being erudite and talented, especially the After confirming that Su Fei's friend Ren Jiao was a demon, Ning Zhe was even more certain that this person was not easy, so Su Fei probably found an excuse to run away, and he chose to leave, probably with Ren Jiao and Tu Shi. Ning Zhe had no idea what they were going to do with the seeds.

The mercenaries in the fortress were full of vigilance and disgust for the refugee area. Under their urging, Ning Zhe, Lin Xun, and Fatty Li began to unload coal from the truck bucket into the yard. Ning Zhe lifted the tarpaulin covering the coal. Later, I found that two bags of rice and two bags of white flour were still piled on the coal pile, and I looked at the mercenary in confusion: "Sir, what does this mean?"

"A housekeeper in Pei's house asked me to bring it to you, don't ask more, hurry up and unload the car!" The mercenary who led the team seemed to be taken care of and told him not to make a statement about the matter, so he threw a word softly and stood beside him to smoke went.

When Ning Zhe heard the words, his heart became clear in an instant. These things must have been thanks to him from Pei Xiangtong, because when the two of them were chatting before, Ning Zhe had told her about the barren situation in the refugee area. I only know that the refugee area is hungry, but I don't know that there is also a shortage of water here, so only food is sent.

The rich get tens of thousands, and the poor eat shit.

In addition to the bean cakes and potatoes distributed by the factory, the food of the refugees in the 87 Fortress area is generally brown rice mixed with chaff and glutinous rice bran, as well as bean flour after grinding black beans, and rice and flour that are fine grains. It is estimated that there are nine Ning Zhe was afraid that passers-by would see this scene, so he asked Lin Xun and Fatty Li to hide the food in the house while no one was there, and then began to unload the coal.

In the past, they used home-made charcoal for heating every winter. However, as the number of dead trees in the desert became less and less, the fuel that could be used was also less. As for coal, this is something that only urban people can use. In winter, there are countless refugees who follow behind the coal transport team, picking up some broken coal that was transferred along the gaps of the trucks. The security guards of those transport teams also estimate that they will pick up some large pieces of coal and throw them under the car, watching a group of refugees. For this, the head was broken.

The three of them tossed for an hour before moving the coal in the bucket to the yard. Lin Xun even opened the kraft paper bag in Ning Zhe's hand and used it as a shovel to collect all the cinders from the bucket, watching. The coal pile in the yard, and the few bags of grain in the house, Lin Xun's dark face was full of satisfaction, he smiled and said to Ning Zhe, "Brother! We have lived together for so many years, but we have never had any One winter has made me feel as safe as this year! With so much fuel and food for heating, we can finally live a comfortable life for a few days!"

"Yeah!" Ning Zhe smiled when he saw the smile on Lin Xun's face, but for some reason, he didn't feel any excitement. Maybe it was because of the days in the team that he really realized what it was. Ning Zhe always felt as if there was a beast in his heart that wanted to break free from the cage, and the name of that beast was desire.

After calming down for a while, Ning Zhe continued to the two of them: "This winter, the situation in the refugee area is very serious, and the life of those people outside is not easy~www.readwn.com~ We must transfer these coals to the city as soon as possible. Go inside the house to prevent someone from stealing in the middle of the night, and our food must be hidden, otherwise once this incident is exposed, I am afraid that someone will fight us at all costs!"

"By the way, Brother Xun, Brother Zhe and I also brought you the canned meat in the fortress, you can try one!" Fatty Li also took out a can of meat from the bag at this time, opened it and handed it to Xun Lin.

"Sniff!"

Lin Xun smelled the smell of the canned meat, and immediately swallowed his saliva, rubbed his hand randomly on his body, grabbed a piece of beef and put it in his mouth, then opened his eyes: "Why is this meat so delicious? It's completely different from what we usually eat! Brother! Fatty! You can try it too!"

"You can eat, Fatty Li and I have eaten a lot in the convoy! Don't eat all these cans, keep them mixed with rice to cook porridge!" Ning Zhe paused and walked outside the courtyard: "The two of you first Work, I'll take Zhao Yi over!"

When Ning Zhe left before, he left Zhao Yi 300 yuan. The money, plus Zhao Yi's own savings, allowed her to live for half a month without picking up guests, and there was no problem. Ning Zhe I promised to take care of Zhao Yi before, and now I have enough supplies, so I thought about taking Zhao Yi over, otherwise, it would be really difficult for such a weak woman to survive the winter.

But when he arrived at Zhao Yi's house, he felt something was wrong, because there was a man's voice inside. Ning Zhe thought that Zhao Yi had chosen to return to his old business, but he soon found out that it was abnormal because this house There was also the voice of a woman speaking.

But the owner of that voice is definitely not Zhao Yi. ?
