Hearing this, Uncle Li showed a smile and recalled the past time: "In the past, when we were in the production team, we worked day and night to build the reservoir, and we could only sleep for more than ten hours a week, but we still persevered. "

Zhou Feng shook his head and said with emotion: "The times are different, and Uncle Li, your physical condition is not as good as when you were young. In addition, my current career is just getting started, and I will often go out to run business in the future, and the time I stay in the warehouse will be relatively uncertain. So please be careful, no one is allowed to enter the warehouse or my dwellings without my permission. "

Uncle Li replied without hesitation: "Feng, don't worry, since you call me uncle, I will definitely handle this matter properly." "

With Uncle Li's words, Zhou Feng can finally set up his cargo transfer station with confidence. In the days to come, he will rely on this warehouse to gradually establish a channel for dumping commodity raw materials into the last days. This not only marked Zhou Feng's transformation from a hawker to a businessman, but also an important step for him to set sail in the business world.

In the moorland settlement, the first brave caravan finally returned triumphantly after a long wait away from the moor. The news was like a bombshell that caused a huge stir in the settlement. People who heard the news flocked to the west gate from all directions, their steps hurried and full of anticipation. Compared to the scene when the raider team arrived, the number of onlookers increased significantly this time. The entire passage was crowded, and all kinds of people with complicated minds were intertwined. Rather than intervening to maintain order, as usual, the Authority spread the news on their own initiative, seemingly intending to irritate the already tense nerves in the settlement.

The

Grand Canyon settlement is only more than 300 kilometers away from the wasteland settlement, and it can theoretically be reached in only three or four hours by car. However, the silence that followed for several days cast a shadow over the second wave of fanatics as they prepared to leave, and the atmosphere in the entire settlement became extremely oppressive. Even the caravans organized by the Authority have slowed their pace, and the mercenary unions outside the camp have completely stopped all work.

The hearts of the people were full of doubts and uneasiness, and no one knew whether the first wave of caravans would be able to cross the terrifying sea of zombies and reach the Grand Canyon settlement safely. Many people who have witnessed the large number of zombies between the two places have begun to guess in despair that the first wave of caravans of tens of thousands of people may have been wiped out under the clutches of zombies.

However, just as countless people lost hope in the first wave of caravanserais, they unexpectedly returned to the settlement. Zhou Feng stood on the side of the road, staring closely at the dozens of cars covered in yellow mud and dust that had arrived first, and the trucks in the convoy were loaded with grain and wine unique to the Grand Canyon settlement. For the resource-poor Grand Canyon settlement, there seems to be no other commodity other than food and alcohol that can attract the merchants of the Wasteland Settlement to bring back.

Obviously, spurred on by the Raider team's profiteering, everyone realizes the value of alcohol in the Wasteland Settlement, and wants to replicate the success of the Raider team in this field and make a fortune. With this in mind, the caravan that came back one after another for the next day almost all brought food and wine.

This scene deeply touched the fanatical people, who gave it little thought, and the next day, the first caravan of nearly 1,000 men was organized in the camp. Armed with all the goods they had accumulated, they set out on a journey to the Grand Canyon settlement, half by car, half on foot, and full of beautiful dreams. Their actions undoubtedly set off a second wave of enthusiasm.

Seeing that the people in the refugee camp were all starting to move, the powerful team in the central town couldn't sit still. They realized that if they didn't take action, they might not be able to get even a little leftovers. So, without any hesitation, the teams just reported to the Authority, and swarmed towards the Grand Canyon settlement like a swarm of loose sand.

In the settlements of the wasteland, a new frenzy is reignited with the arrival of a second wave of caravanserais. The caravan brought back far more merchandise than the Raiders had previously carried, and the market in the settlement, which was already in high demand for alcohol, quickly reached saturation. Although the wine was worth a lot of money in the early days of trading, now, due to the surge in supply, its price is no longer as high as one might expect, but is falling day by day, even to one-fifth of its original price.

In contrast to the sharp fluctuations in the alcohol market, the price of grain appears to be relatively stable. This is because food is a basic need of people, and everyone needs food to sustain themselves, no matter what the circumstances. As a result, the price of food has remained somewhat stable even when the prices of other commodities have fallen sharply.

However, the rapid decline in commodity prices is undoubtedly a basin of cold water for those who originally dreamed of getting rich overnight. They began to realize that the Grand Canyon's wealth was not as easy to come by as they thought, and that instead of getting rich quickly, it could lead to heavy losses.

Even more serious is the high risk of exploring the Grand Canyon. According to statistics, more than 10,000 people went to the Grand Canyon in search of wealth, but less than 3,000 actually returned to the wasteland settlements safely. While some chose to stay in the Grand Canyon settlement, many more fell victim to the zombie horde on the way.

This death rate of more than half has dealt a huge blow to enthusiasm for the Grand Canyon, and many have begun to worry about the safety of those who set off in the second wave, wondering how many of them will make it back alive. Even if someone makes it back safely, they may not even be able to recover the principal in the face of a saturated market, because they still need to pay the salaries of the mercenaries.

In this case, despite knowing that they may face huge losses, there are still some people, such as Zhou Feng, who still cling to their dream of the Grand Canyon. He sat in front of the camp tent, and although he had been used to the heat for most of the month, he still felt unbearable. In front of him, Xu Yuhai, Xu Dali and other nine people, as well as Qiu Guorui's group members, were all invited to this gathering. And those weak scholars, such as Chen Wenbo and others, were arranged by Zhou Feng to continue their work in the tent. Despite the uncertain environment, Zhou Feng and his team are still ready to rise to the challenge.
