"I need time to communicate effectively with the people below, and find a way to persuade them to agree...it may take a few months...or a month." Sun Dacheng agreed to this suggestion rather simply, only in terms of preparation time Made a little request.

"The second point is to provide the refugees with job opportunities as much as possible and reduce their exploitation. I won't go into details about how to do it, and you don't have to complain. I have been Yuluo for a few years, and I have seen your soldiers with my own eyes. How to do it. Still the same sentence, don’t ask for a complete eradication, just leave them a way to survive.”

Hong Tao partly agrees with Sun Dacheng's point of view on the fertility rate. It is indeed very important. In the long run, it is even more important than restoring industrialization. After all, without population, there will be no labor force.

But it is also impossible to increase the fertility rate while watching the refugees struggling on the verge of death every day.They are also a labor force. As long as you think about it, as a group of tens of thousands of people, it is not too difficult to let many people live with a little profit.

"...I can find a way to increase the cultivated area and absorb some refugees to work in agriculture, but there is no rush..." But this sounds not too difficult, but in Sun Dacheng's mouth, it is more troublesome than abolishing the nun system.

Chapter 602 Floating away

It's not that the Redeemer can't afford to support tens of thousands of people, most of the refugees are still able to work.However, exploiting these people has become part of the source of interest for the high-level executives. If they take this piece of meat by themselves, it will definitely attract opposition.

No one is governed by a single family. No matter what model is adopted, the management must be a community of interests. Otherwise, a bishop today may be hung on a pole and lit a sky lantern tomorrow.

"Whoever threatens you the most and is most likely to oppose this decision, give me a name." Hong Tao could empathize with Sun Dacheng's hesitation.

When I planned to implement a new policy in the revival alliance, I had to fully consider the interests of all parties. Only after obtaining the approval of most of the management can it be implemented smoothly.

But I really don't have the time, energy, or interest to carefully study the internal power structure of the Redeemer, and I can't help Sun Dacheng persuade other management members.But there is another way to let him relax a little bit, such as getting rid of the biggest political enemy and potential threat.

"...It's... Sabin..." Sun Dacheng frowned, and for the first time there was a look of fear in his eyes.It wasn't until this moment that he felt the horror of the man in front of him, and his back was instantly drenched in cold sweat. At the same time, he was glad that he didn't run the train with his mouth full just now.

"Sabin? Hasn't he been dismissed?" Hong Tao also frowned. He thought that Sun Dacheng was going to talk about Jiang Yang. From the analysis of the current power structure, he could only pose a real threat to him in name leader of the Redeemer.

"Russian, Kazakh, and Mongolian officers account for at least half of the army, and most of Sabin's industries are owned by those people. I can temporarily remove him from his post, but I can't eliminate the influence. If Wacker is still there It would be a good check and balance, but it's a pity..."

Speaking of this matter, Sun Dacheng not only expressed helplessness and exhaustion all over his body, but finally signaled to Hong Tao with his eyes that the person who caused the current difficult situation is you!

"Don't look at me, if you didn't rely too much on the old man to seize power, you wouldn't be where you are today... Where is Sabine at this time?"

Hong Tao was unwilling to interfere with the internal affairs of the Redeemer, but he had to help solve the troubles for the future of these tens of thousands of people.Fortunately, Sabine was difficult for Sun Dacheng, but it was not difficult for him.

"It's in the office at the end of the corridor. If you don't show up, I will have to announce his reinstatement at today's dinner."

At this time, Sun Dacheng's expression was very exciting. He 100% couldn't believe that he could get a blessing in disguise, but he was 100% willing to see Hong Tao take action to solve this big trouble. For a while, he couldn't tell who was the enemy and who was the partner.

"Okay, now you just treat him as dead, and continue to listen to my third suggestion. Stop combat operations in southern Xinjiang, and start negotiations with the rebels as soon as possible. If the two of you lack the most basic trust, you cannot sit together , then invite the East Asian Alliance to be the third party.”

"Don't tell me that you can't agree. As long as you can implement the first two suggestions, I believe that neither the Rebel Army nor the East Asian Alliance will turn a blind eye. Let me tell you a secret, the zombie disease may have mutated, and it never infects animals. It can infect both animals and humans."

"I won't talk nonsense on this issue. The East Asian Alliance has already obtained the specimens, and I believe it will be able to draw conclusions soon. If it is true, do you know what kind of situation it will face? Even if the rebels want to go their own way, The East Asian Union will not continue to support them."

He raised his wrist and looked at his watch. Before he knew it, nearly two hours had passed, and there was still more than an hour before it got dark. He didn't have much time left for himself, so he sped up his speech.

"...Well, I'm willing to try the method you said, but I don't have much hope for the outcome." Sun Dacheng listened to this passage very carefully, touched his chin with his left hand and fell into deep thought.It took about four or five minutes to finally get the result, which was barely acceptable.

"If I can come in once, I can come in a second time. In fact, even if people don't come in, I can still kill you. Don't make fun of your own life. I don't think you are so cute, but I don't want to see so many people follow you. Call Jiang Yang and Sabine and tell them to come here."

Hong Tao could completely accept this result, not to mention that Sun Dacheng was not sure, even if he let himself do it, he was still not sure.Many things can only be known after they have been done. It is useless not to do calculations.Now that everything that needs to be said has been said, the next step is to prepare to leave here. The method is very vulgar and very simple.

"May I ask one more question, do you really think you can save everyone? You never thought about yourself at all?" Sun Dacheng didn't go to get the internal number, as if he hadn't talked enough. He was talking about business just now, and now he wants to discuss it again. some personal issues.

"I'm just thinking about myself! If you all get sick and die, where should I find bad people to punish, and how can I be Yuro? Ask yourself, have you been really happy these years? I can't see Come on, thinking about who is going to usurp the throne and who is going to seize power all day long, can you eat well and sleep?"

"Power is a good thing, and everyone in the world likes it, and I am no exception. But... you have to have a degree in everything you do. If you let the struggle for power and profit fill every minute of your life, you will suffer. I have a little bit of experience in this matter. That little right to speak is now teaching you how to control power without being backlashed by power."

Since Sun Dacheng is willing to discuss this issue at a deeper level, Hong Tao doesn't mind saying a few more words.It is impossible to convince a person with just a few words. If the name of the East Asian Alliance is not on his head, the current situation of the Redeemer is not too difficult. Won't try it.

But if you can explain one thing theoretically, it is much better than forcing others to do it without explaining anything.As long as it doesn't delay things too much, it doesn't hurt to say a few more words, and it doesn't hurt to let the other party understand your thoughts better.

"As far as I know, there are also struggles for power and profit within the East Asian Union, but on the surface it seems that it is not as obvious as here." Sun Dacheng was somewhat disdainful of this explanation and gave the reason.You didn't figure it out at home, but you came out to preach to others, what a big face.

"This is not nonsense. If I have such a great ability to make everyone think about things according to one idea, I should not be called Hong Tao, but Queen Bee or Queen Ant. It is the nature of human beings to fight for power and profit. Completely obliterated."

"However, most of the reason why human beings invented morality and law is to restrain their nature. If a person cannot control himself, he is not far from animals. Power can and must be contested, but it should not be too much, let alone regarded as The only thing in life must be balanced."

"The things you did in the community at the beginning were more beastly. I am not forgiving, but a temporary compromise. In a sense, I am also trying to achieve a balance in the struggle for power and profit. It is more expensive to kill you with one shot than to spend so much time talking." It's much easier. Don't delay, I won't be negligent, so hurry up and call someone!"

Some people criticize the model he created, but Hong Tao has no opinion at all. There are indeed many problems that should be criticized.But the problems of the East Asian Alliance cannot be compared with the management style of the Redeemer. These are two completely different models and there is no comparison at all.

If Sun Dacheng insisted on this point to defend him, then Hong Tao could only clenched his index finger and temporarily ended the conversation.If you die and don't realize your mistakes, there is no need to save them, and keeping them is a disaster.

Facts have proved that Sun Dacheng barely has a chance of being rescued, at least he didn't throw any tricks in the process of accompanying Hong Tao out of the base.In fact, it's not necessarily that I don't want to play, but I really dare not.Those two hard, cold grenades on the back are more direct than any language, preaching, or general trend.

Hong Tao's method of leaving the Yining base was very simple and old-fashioned. He asked Sun Dacheng to trick Jiang Yang and Sabin into the office one by one by phone, and then asked the guards to send a few grenades.

Just like how they dealt with Commander Moroz before, everyone tied two bullets on their backs, and the enemy became irresistible.The three big men left the office holding hands, chatting and laughing, and announced loudly to the guards:

I, Yuluo, have returned, and your bishop, president, and commander have all been kidnapped.If you want them to continue to live, arrange the vehicles quickly, watch me go out of the city obediently, and if you want them to die immediately, shoot me!

Why are there three big men?Because Sabine was put in front.In order to make everyone believe what he said, Hong Tao used him as a model teaching material.

At the entrance of the building, he kicked the short and fat guy into a rolling gourd, and then hid behind the pillars, watching the former commander-in-chief who had not yet taken office be blown up.

Seeing the bodies on the ground that were nearly blown in two, the hundreds of people who heard the news immediately believed it, and some of them vomited.As the titular leader of the Redeemer, Jiang Yang is also one of the best in vomiting skills, displaying all the extra meals he just ate on the steps.

With this courage alone, he really wouldn't pose too much threat to Sun Dacheng, and he wasn't even as calm as the big nun Anna. This woman just turned her head slightly, not looking at the Shura hell.

The next thing was easy, Anna immediately arranged a car to send the undefeated Xiaoqiang and the two top leaders to leave the base, and let the two teams of adjudicators open the way in front to ensure that the vehicle passed the checkpoint smoothly. .

Then let the adjudicators with live ammunition restrain some emotional soldiers and officers well, and ensure that they will pick them up ten kilometers to the east after two hours.

Two hours was enough for Hong Tao to sneak into the mountain area calmly, and he did keep his promise. He didn't hurt Sun Dacheng and Jiang Yang, but blindfolded them and tied them in the car.

Chapter 603 Familiar and Unfamiliar

September should be the most comfortable and beautiful season in Beijing, but that is the old calendar. In the 11th year after the outbreak of the zombie disease, human beings suddenly lost their troubles, and nature waved its paintbrush again, turning many places where there was no grass. It has become an oasis, turning the original plain scenery into a landscape painting.

But the vicinity of the capital is another matter. Compared with other places, although the green is still much more than that of the old world, there are fewer birds in the sky and more smoke, and there are fewer green grass and clear streams on the ground and more sewage.And it is still people who cause all this, tens of thousands, 10,000+ people, and factories that emit black smoke.

"Wuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...

This train is very interesting. The first four or five sections are oil tankers, the last three sections are bulk trucks, and there are two passenger cars in the middle.From the painting point of view, no matter the tank truck, truck or passenger car, the models are not consistent, and it is a bit of patchwork style.

It is still dilapidated, and in some places the glass has been broken but no one has replaced it, just nailed it with wooden boards.The most interesting thing is that there is a door missing in the carriage, and it is full of people, all of whom have been blown into disgrace.

"Take your own things and don't leave them behind... Oh, don't look at them yet, what's the matter with blocking the door, pay attention to the bottom of your feet..."

The train had just come to a stop, and a middle-aged man in his 50s squeezed out of the carriage. He was not tall and had a loud voice. He spoke Mandarin with an accent that he couldn't speak clearly, and shouted loudly at the crowd crowded in the aisle of the broken train door. .

There was a commotion among the crowd, but no one went to get off the car, but looked back to the corner in unison.There was actually another person here, taking a nap between the two big packages.

"Boss Lu, have you arrived at the station?" Awakened by the loud voice, he was rubbing his eyes and looking out, as if he didn't know him well, and he was not sure whether he should go or not.

"Here, let's take you to help my brother get out of the car. Oh yes, don't run around after getting down. This place is no different than other places. The rules are very strict. If you don't move, you will be fined. If you can't get it out, you will be arrested and used as a coolie."

Seeing this face, the middle-aged man called Boss Lu put away his impatient look, tried to smile, took a step closer, bent down and lowered his voice as much as possible.

"Okay, don't worry, we are all duty-bound people, and we know the rules wherever we go! Tigers and thin monkeys, get out of the car and pick up your luggage. Be careful, don't let anyone take it!"

The sleepy-eyed man agreed and struggled to stand up from the pile of packages. He was almost a head and a half taller than the short man, with stubble all over his face stubbornly poking his head out of the thick dust. He looked like a terracotta warrior.

There are not many people in their group, only eight or nine people, but they have quite a lot of luggage.Suitcases, backpacks, trolley cases, sacks, furoshiki... There are twenty or thirty items in all, and the aisle of the car door is almost full.

The other passengers in the carriage obviously didn't want to rub against this group of dusty and sturdy guys, so they all squeezed towards the door on the other side.

Taking advantage of the gap between unloading the truck, the tall man stretched his arms and legs on the platform, tossing and tossing like punching. He lit a cigarette and turned his neck to look around when he felt that his body was moving. His eyes were both familiar and unfamiliar. .

"Brother Shu, is this the capital city?" His appearance quickly attracted the attention of his companions. The strongest man named Tiger came over and asked while lighting a cigarette.

"It's necessary... isn't it written on it!" The tall man pointed towards the platform sign with his mouth, and his eyes glanced around a little absent-mindedly.

"Jingcheng North Station...why am I not as good as JYG?"

It's not that the tiger can't read, it's just that he has no confidence in the buildings here.A small half of the tall steel-framed ceiling collapsed, and the rest was also stained with rust.The platform is quite spacious, but the stone paved on the ground has been peeled off, and there are a lot of horse manure scattered here and there.

The ticket gate at the end is actually open-air. Horse-drawn carriages, cars, and passengers carrying large and small bags are all crowded together. People are screaming and machines are roaring.

"Tell the brothers to stay calm, don't stare at people all the time, be patient when you encounter trouble, don't draw a knife at every turn, and act with winks!" Brother Mouse finally scanned the surrounding situation with his eyes, and finally stopped. On those in black with red armbands and pistols pinned to their waists.

"Don't worry, brothers know how to measure... Do you think that the surnamed Lu will take things and do nothing? This is his land, and we have nowhere to look for him when he runs away."

The tiger was obviously tired of hearing this set of rhetoric, and had no interest in the man in black.What's wrong with having pistols, even standing in a row with long guns is not new.But he was very worried about Boss Lu who had just left, and kept his eyes on the direction of the exit.

"...wait and see, the big deal is to hand over the things, we have never been afraid of anyone with only knives!" Brother Shu raised his wrist and looked at his watch, just 5 minutes had passed, so he was not in a hurry.

"Here we come...with a red hoop...will this old guy sell us out!" Before he finished his cigarette, Brother Shu was stabbed hard in the waist by the tiger.

"Tsk, what am I talking about, don't just slap that guy! Take out your hands and go look at the luggage with the brothers." Without the tiger's reminder, Brother Shu also saw Boss Lu and a black man in uniform out of the corner of his eye. Clothed people were talking and laughing and squeezed in from outside the station.

At the same time, he also saw the tiger's left hand sticking into the clothes at the back of his waist. He couldn't help frowning and sent his companion away, and then put on a smiling face to greet Boss Lu.

"Ho ho... drive... pa..." Half an hour later, Boss Lu, Brother Shu, Tiger and several others, together with the pile of parcels, were all stuffed into a truck waiting for work outside the exit. The flatbed carriage slowly drove onto the same dilapidated road amidst the coachman's yelling and the crackling of the horsewhip.

At this time, except for the coachman and Boss Lu, most people involuntarily stretched their necks and looked at the scene in front of them in a daze.Compared with the dilapidated platform, the scene outside is more shocking and confusing.

The first thing that catches the eye is the green, brown, yellow, red on the right side that can't be seen at a glance... The colors are very strange under the afterglow of the setting sun!

If you look closely, it's not exactly plants, but tall buildings covered or mostly covered by plants, that is, buildings in the old world.Originally, it should only be green, with occasional dots of colorful flowers, but as the temperature gradually drops, the leaves of some plants will change color, and this is what it looks like.

How should I put it, there is a scene in autumn in Beijing called Xiangshan Hongye.At that time, standing on the top of Xiangshan Mountain in the western suburbs and looking down, the color of the leaves ranges from dark to light to blood red, and the layers are really beautiful.If another gust of wind happens to blow, the mountain wakes up like a giant beast and keeps shaking its colorful fur, which makes people feel like falling into a painting.

Now there is no need to go to Fragrant Hills. In the old world, the high and low buildings have replaced the rolling hills, and various climbing plants have replaced the maple trees.You can enjoy the picturesque scenery without being condescending, and by the way, it perfectly conceals the dilapidated human architecture.

If it is just the natural beauty, it may not cause these people too much consternation. They have seen a broader and more magnificent natural scenery.But the twinkling stars on the other side are even more irresistible to look at, they are obviously not created by nature, 100% human civilization!

Boss Lu was sitting on the edge of the cart, his legs drooping and swaying back and forth with the shaking of the cart, obviously he was used to this slow and bumpy carriage.Looking at the astonishment on the faces of the others, a contemptuous smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Pure wood beetle, with an appearance that has never seen the world, is still a very greasy wood beetle.As a qualified human trafficker, you must not be satisfied with just earning some benefits.There are 100% valuables in these guys' salutes, otherwise they would not spend a lot of money to ask themselves to use their connections to escape the inspection at the exit.

However, these guys are very vigilant, and always put the heaviest packages in the innermost place, and they didn't have a chance to find out what was inside them along the way.

But it doesn't matter, this is my own territory, there are many ways, try both soft and hard, anyway, I can't let this big deal slip by in vain.There are not many high-quality refugees like this throughout the year, and you must take a big bite when you encounter them!

604 Familiar and Unfamiliar 2

"Brother Shu, don't worry about my work. I won't give you any discounts. How about bringing out everything you want? Why don't you let me estimate the price first, and then help you find a good home?"

"Where is that place over there?" Brother Shu didn't bother with Boss Lu's words, and pointed to the starry sky in the east and asked.

"Greedy? Hehehe, it's useless to be greedy. People like us who don't have official resident status can't easily get in. That's the main base of the East Asian Alliance, which is the center of the capital."

"Did you see this river? It's called a moat, and it circled the base in a big circle. It didn't look like this before, it wasn't so wide or so deep. It's been dug for several years, and the excavated soil was piled to the other side of the river. It's almost as high as the city wall."

"Do you know what it means? Let me tell you, this river is more than ten meters deep, and the dirt walls are full of machine guns and cannons. If zombies come, as long as there is enough ammunition, no matter how many there are, they will all be targeted!"

Seeing that his temptation was dodged again, Boss Lu was not in a hurry, and patiently solved the puzzle for a group of local turtles from remote places.Although he does not have an official resident status, nor can he enter the main base, but it does not hinder that superior tone.

"Then what shall we do?" Loud voice is sometimes acquired, but sometimes it is born.Boss Lu belongs to the latter group. Even if two people are chatting next to each other, people around can hear them, so someone asks a question later.

"What else can I do, the poor will have to rely on their fate at any time..." Boss Lu turned back without turning his head. It is mentally handicapped to ask this kind of question at this time, and you don't know your identity!

"Don't listen to him being blind. The Alliance Council posted an announcement the year before last saying that all refugees are allowed to cross the river to take refuge during special times, but they are not allowed to enter the city. There is an open space several hundred meters wide behind the earth wall called a buffer zone. District, when the time comes the refugees will stay in the buffer.”

At this time, the uncle who drove the car interrupted. He obviously heard Boss Lu's introduction, and made corrections and additions to the links that were too different from the actual situation, as if he was a little disdainful.

"I'm not wrong, are you not allowed to enter the city!" Boss Lu was not happy, this is not a sabotage, slaps in the face, it will affect his prestige too much.

"Are they the labor you hired?" The driver turned his head and looked at the people in the car carefully, and finally stopped his eyes on Boss Lu.

"It's all strong labor, from JYG!" Boss Lu seemed very proud of this question, and to prove that there was no water in his words, he patted Brother Shu on the back hard.

"Good guy, it's not close... Work hard. After digging this section of the river, you can get an ID card. As long as you are willing to work hard to eat and drink..." The driver did not break the stage this time, and added a few words to further confirm He listened to Boss Lu's words.

"How about it, don't worry about my work, I will never compromise on what I promise!" Boss Lu immediately became happy again, and expressed his gratitude to Brother Shu with a loud voice.

"Brother, light it..." Brother Shu ignored Boss Lu's self-promotion, took out a cigarette and handed it to the driver.

"... Yo, not bad... Take it easy when you're away from home, it's not easy for anyone these days!" The driver took the cigarette and looked at it in front of him, nodded in satisfaction, and clamped the cigarette to his ear.With the movement of raising his hand to hold the cigarette, he turned his head and winked at Brother Shu, and then winked back.

"That's right, if life is easier, who would be willing to run so far just to make a living. If you always have time, tell us more about the rules here, maybe a word can save a life."

Brother Shu took out another cigarette, and this time he handed over the lighter together. While helping the uncle light the fire, he changed places with his companions, squatting and half-sitting next to him, pretending to be earnestly taught. .

"Hey, I'm just a gangster who drives a car and pulls goods, so I can't tell you the details. You see, the place to get off the train is the northwest corner. Now we are going south, and the place we are going to is in the southeast corner. Before It’s called Minmin Temple, and it’s about 16 kilometers one way, and it’s almost dark.” Although the driver had a cigarette in his mouth, he didn’t start the conversation, he just introduced the place he was going to and then kept silent.

"Brother, by the accent, are you a local?" Brother Shu didn't seem to feel anything. Like all the people who have just arrived in a strange environment, he wanted to ask everything but it was difficult to get the point. So rusty.

"Brother, your ears are not good. I can still hear the locals with such a heavy accent? My hometown is in the Northeast, a small place, but you have never heard of it, Wuchang City." It may be that the clumsy performance made the driver unable to bear it any longer. More blows, only an understatement of "running" and then self-reported the specific reason.

"Wuchang Rice? Are you from HLJ?" Brother Shu reacted very sensitively this time, telling the exact location with just one word.

"That's right, it's a pity, I can't eat it now... What did you do before, have you been to Wuchang?" The driver seemed to be more interested in talking about his hometown when he heard someone talking about his hometown.

"I'm a transporter, and I went to Wuchang to pull goods. In fact, I have been to this place in the capital, more than once, but the place is so big that it is hard to recognize."

Brother Shu also answered very happily. In fact, in this day and age, asking strangers for their real names and their past is nonsense.Many people just pick up their mouths and say, there is no accurate spectrum, and the general chat content is really small talk when it enters this stage.

"Well, we can still be regarded as colleagues...hehehe...it's actually not that complicated, and you don't have to admit everything. Now it's not like before, you can't just walk around casually, just wandering around is just a small place near your home. "

"Take the Minute Temple you are going to. It is a little outside the Southwest Third Ring Road. It must have been a prosperous place in the past. It is not weak now. It should be regarded as the largest refugee community in the country. It is also number one in the world."
