Chapter 108 When you showed up, I was thinking about letting you work for free

"We are already within the confines of the trading pit."

Li Bai came here a long time ago.

Lin Fan observed the surrounding environment. There were iron bodies everywhere with hollowed-out interiors and only empty frames left. They were now rusty and abandoned for who knows how long.

After arriving here.

The flow of people around gradually increased.

They all drove towards the trading place quickly.

Li Bai said: "This place is a mixed bag. It's safe inside, but it's very dangerous outside. Look at these guys staying in the car, who seem to be waiting for someone, but they are actually looking for survivors coming out of the trading yard. "

"It is indeed a bit dangerous. When you come out of the trading place, you have to be careful to see if you are being stared at." Lin Fan smiled.

Everyone who does this job wants to make quick money and get blood crystals as quickly as possible.

Li Bai said: "Those with few people like us are often their best prey."

"I hope they can cherish the good life. It's really hard to live." Lin Fan looked calm and looked at the survivors outside with indifferent eyes. It was indeed possible to do something to him, but he had to carefully consider the cost of doing so. Whether you can bear it.

soon.

Park the vehicle.

Remove the key.

"The car is parked here. Don't wait until we get in and out. Only an empty shell will be left here." Lin Fan was deeply suspicious of the folk customs in the apocalypse.

Li Bai said: "You can rest assured that the car will not be stolen. The trading center is opened here, and survivors from all over the place come here. If even the transportation vehicles are stolen, do you think anyone will come here?"

This is the only thing the trading pit can guarantee.

"That's true."

Lin Fan nodded, it was indeed the case, there was still the protection that should have been provided.

Arrive in front of the air raid shelter gate.

There was a surveillance camera in the corner above. With a ding, the iron door opened. At the urging of the staff, he walked in in a hurry.

Lin Fan glanced at the staff member, who was a hunter. He was sitting leisurely at the door, swinging his legs, acting very relaxed and comfortable, and feeling very satisfied with his current life.

The two walked towards the inside, and noisy sounds came from the air-raid shelter. There were all kinds of people squatting on both sides of the air-raid shelter, including men and women, old and young.

Li Bai said: "We are merchants when we come here. We don't have to pay any fees, but when night falls, we have to leave. And these people who set up stalls here need to pay blood crystals as stall fees. They want to set up stalls here." If you stay here overnight, you need to give an additional first-level blood crystal."

"It's not expensive." Lin Fan nodded.

Blood crystals are the hard currency.

Everyone needs it.

Lin Fan walked very slowly, curious about what these people were selling.

"The fifth-level blood crystals are exchanged for one hundred third-level blood crystals."

This was a middle-aged man, squatting on the ground with a paper card in front of him. There were words written on the paper card, describing what he needed.

Lin Fan felt that it would be difficult for the other party to exchange it.

One level five blood crystal is not worth a hundred level three blood crystals.

After careful observation, this middle-aged man should be a third-level hunter. He did not know where he got a fifth-level blood crystal, and wanted to exchange it for a third-level blood crystal to improve his own strength.

Understanding is understanding.

It’s just that the exchange ratio is a bit large.

Li Bai whispered: "The prices of things traded here are often very high. What they want is not to sell them as quickly as possible, but to meet people who are in urgent need of this thing. If they meet one, they can take off directly."

"Um."

Lin Fan nodded, that's true. For example, if you want to exchange these fifth-level blood crystals for a hundred third-level blood crystals, normal people will definitely not even look at it. But if there is a fifth-level strong man, he has never encountered a fifth-level blood crystal. A strange beast, but he has collected a bunch of third-level blood crystals, and he may exchange them without hesitation. After all, the third-level blood crystals are useless to him.

Continue walking inside.

Stopped in front of a man.

"Concrete Awakener?"

Lin Fan was very surprised. He didn't expect that such an ability could appear.

The man who heard the voice looked up and chuckled, "Brother, you need my ability. I am a good hand at building forts and walls. I settle the bill on a daily basis and the price is very fair. I work eight hours a day and only need ten taels." Super blood crystal."

"Is it so expensive?" Lin Fan was very interested in this awakened person. He wanted this kind of ability.

The man said: "Brother, is this expensive? I am a second-level awakened person, and I work very fast. If I wait until I become a third-level awakened person, then the price will go up. It is far from what the second-level blood crystal can afford. You have to touch me.”

"Can you negotiate the price?" Lin Fan asked.

The man observed Lin Fan's expression and found that there was a tentative feeling when he said "I can negotiate the price".

He shook his head decisively, "Brother, I won't bargain."

"Okay, follow." Lin Fan nodded and finally found his first helper.

The man folded the piece of paper and put it in his arms. A smiling Pidianpidian followed behind Lin Fan and said enthusiastically: "Brother, my name is Li Quanfei. I'll give you a rough estimate of how big the wall needs to be built this time." You do the math."

"Don't worry, it's not confirmed yet." Lin Fan said.

"Oh, brother, do you still need help? I know a few people who are good at building fortresses and walls. Their abilities are particularly outstanding and will definitely satisfy you." Li Quanfei strongly recommended. They are all in this industry and introduced each other. Business is very normal.

When Lin Fan heard this, he was instantly happy.

"lead the way."

"OK."

Li Quanfei was so happy. He didn't expect the business to come so quickly. He hadn't started work for a whole month.

Of course, he will not live in the trading yard.

When it gets dark, he goes directly to the outside of the trading venue to use his skills and build a simple cement hut. He can stay there for one night and continue setting up his stall as soon as it gets light.

"Ah Dan, you haven't sold this thing yet. Just listen to my price reduction."

"Hey, buddy, it's time to go to work. Big work is coming."

Lin Fan found that Li Quanfei's personality was a bit lively.

Even though it was the end of the world, it couldn't suppress him. I have to say that this guy's mentality is indeed good.

Soon, under the leadership of Li Quanfei, they came to a corner.

"Brother Gao, Brother Xu is here for a big job."

Li Quanfei shouted, not caring about the looks of people around him. He just wanted to let people know that he would have a lot of income if he had work to do.

Lin Fan looked at those two people.

The man called Brother Gao wore a worn-out yellow safety helmet, a drunken nose, a mustache, and a small hatchet on his waist.

This reminded Lin Fan of a familiar figure.

It’s just a bald guy.

The other Brother Xu is ordinary, looks like a normal person, has no characteristics, and will not be evaluated too much.

"Let me introduce to you, Gao Shan and Xu Yang are both good at building fortress walls." Li Quanfei introduced, then looked at the two of them and said: "This eldest brother is looking for someone to build a fortress wall. The amount of work is huge. I will talk to him Okay, I’ll give you eight second-level blood crystals a day, will you do it?”

Gao Shan was shocked.

Xu Yang was horrified.

Li Quanfei said: "That's a lot. Are you willing to pay such a price?"

Gao Shan and Xu Yang nodded their heads crazily without even thinking about it.

"Do it, let's do it."

The reward is very high.

They were all willing to give five second-level blood crystals a day. Unexpectedly, Li Quanfei directly told them about eight second-level blood crystals. As expected of a good brother, he really gave them the benefits.

Lin Fan looked at them quietly, clearly seeing their situation.

But it doesn’t matter.

The most important thing now is to expand the city wall.

After he brought the person back, Lao Zhou was naturally responsible for the follow-up matters.

Lin Fan wanted to continue looking for more people, but Li Quanfei told him that no one here had the ability to do this, and it was indeed difficult to meet people with suitable abilities.

Just talk about the abilities of Gao Shan and Xu Yang.

They are soil control and eye-fire welding.

They are all good at this job.

He did not leave in a hurry, but continued to wander around the trading venue. It was his first time to look carefully. He found that there were still many projects here.

There are thugs doing the work.

There are people who volunteer to be killers.

There is also the sale of rare items that were once common in peacetime but are extremely rare today.

Just like a mobile phone.

It's old, but it can still be turned on. Without the Internet, you can listen to downloaded songs and read downloaded novels.

It can only be said that if you find good things, you can sell them here.

Suddenly, he stopped, and something placed on the stall in front of him caught his attention. If his guess was correct, this thing seemed to be a fragment, but the fragment was very small, only as big as a fingernail, and contained too much energy. Too rare.

So much so that people around him frequently looked sideways and stared at the fragments, but did not take any drastic action.

"Old man, how do you sell this?"

The person selling this fragment the size of a fingernail is an old man. He looks to be in his sixties. He is not an awakener or a hunter. I don’t know where he got the fragment.

Sure enough, there are a lot of strange things in the apocalypse, only things you can't imagine and nothing you haven't seen before.

The old man raised his head, his skin was dark and wrinkled, and his eyes were very cloudy. He opened his mouth and revealed a row of yellow teeth and said: "This is not for sale."

"Not selling? What are the requirements?"

Now that it's on display, it's natural to have something to ask for. If you don't want to sell blood crystals, you must have something else to ask for.

Before the old man could speak, a stall owner next to him said: "His request is that he must help him kill Li Yong, the second-in-command of the Liangang Barrier. He is a fourth-level awakened person, and he is still in the barrier. He wants to To kill the other party is simply as difficult as climbing to the sky."

Li Yong?

Oh, that's the one.

"There must be a reason." Lin Fan wanted to hear a story that could make an old man think like this. All he could say was that there must be a blood feud in this matter.

"He killed my beloved, and I want him to die." When talking about this matter, the old man's eyes were full of anger, with hatred that wanted to tear him into pieces and swallow him alive.

"Daughter?"

Lin Fan somewhat sympathized with the old man. It was the happiest thing to have relatives by his side in the apocalypse. But now, having relatives killed is an unbearable blow to anyone.

The stall owner on the side smiled and said: "What daughter is not a daughter? She is his wife. She is old and has a young heart. She spent twenty first-level blood crystals to buy a young woman as a companion. She was killed some time ago. "

Lin Fan:......

The old man glared at the stall owner beside him, his meaning was very clear, why are you talking so much?

"Are you going to do it or not? If you don't, just get out of the way and don't block others." The old man said dissatisfied.

Lin Fan wondered, does he have any grudge against Li Yong?

There must be some.

The person who almost killed Lu Shan was a member of Liangang Barrier and a member of his team. That time he killed the guy who almost killed Lu Shan on the spot, thus forming a feud.

If Li Yong is given a chance, the other party will definitely kill him without hesitation.

Although the pieces are small, they are still meat. Wouldn’t it be good to take them back and use them as spicy snacks?

The demand for spicy strips is huge.

He wanted to see what would happen to the spicy strips after eating enough pieces.

"received."

Lin Fan didn't think much about it. He would have to kill in the future. Since it would be beneficial, he would definitely do it now.

"I'll go with you." The old man stood up and didn't take the fragments with him. Instead, he put them in a safe. The lockers here were specially prepared by the trading place to store things for people here.

Everyone left the trading venue.

Li Bai was confused, good guy, we are here to recruit people. I didn't expect that you, a guy like you, would take the order easily and still go to the Hong Kong Barrier to kill people. To be honest, such a situation was beyond his imagination.

Pickup truck with four seats.

Four people in front, two outside.

As the pickup truck was driving, the survivors outside the trading site saw that Lin Fan was in larger numbers, so they did not regard him as prey and left without any hesitation.

While driving.

"Where did you get this fragment?" Lin Fan was very curious.

"Picked it up."

For such an answer, if he believes it, then his brain is really sick.

The road was a little bumpy, and Li Quanfei in the car was a little nervous, rubbing his hands, not knowing what to do, "Brother, we are not going to build the city wall. Now we are going to the Liangang Barrier to kill people. Isn't it a bit impulsive?"

"There's no impulse, it'll be quick. There's no need to be so nervous." Lin Fan knew what he was thinking and spoke softly to soothe the other person's heart.

Li Quanfei moved his throat and swallowed, "Brother, why don't you send us to the place where the city wall needs to be built first? We don't have much fighting power and will be easily delayed, which will be very troublesome."

Lin Fan turned back and said with a smile: "It's okay, it will be over soon. Then you just need to wait outside for a while."

Li Quanfei wanted to say something else, but the moment his eyes met Lin Fan's, he knew that whatever he said was useless, he could only lower his head, feeling a little nervous.

It’s really tiring to go out and earn blood crystals, and you always have to take risks that you don’t need to take.

If they are counter-attacked at the Liangang Barrier, wouldn't they also be implicated? Even if they are not implicated, then the business that was previously negotiated may be ruined.

After a long time, they finally arrived at the Liangang Barrier. Lin Fan parked the car far away and got out of the car. "Li Bai, you guys stay here and wait for me to come back. I'll be here soon."

"Um."

Li Bai knew Lin Fan's strength and had no problem killing Li Yong. Moreover, he also felt that killing Li Yong was normal. As long as he made enemies with anyone in the apocalypse, the hatred would always exist, so in order to cause unnecessary trouble, Li Bai should It still needs to be solved.

in the barrier.

Li Yong drank tea and enjoyed the leisurely life of the apocalypse. He didn't care at all how other people were living. Often, the value they brought to their hard life could make his life better.

Thinking back to the time when I was in peace, I lived like a dog and gained very little. On the other hand, those guys were full of greasy food and said they didn't work hard enough and deserved to be poor all their lives.

At that time, he was angry and hating these hateful guys.

And now...he's become the person he once hated the most, and it feels great.

Bang.

The door was violently pushed open, and Li Yong was shocked, his face darkened, and he shouted angrily: "You want to die, don't you even know how to knock on the door when you come in?"

"Hi, Li Yong."

Hearing the voice, Li Yong felt that it was very familiar. When he looked up, he was surprised to find that Lin Fan had appeared here.

This made Li Yong secretly wonder. Could it be that he knew that he told the group of people his information?

Li Yong was naturally dissatisfied when the fragment was obtained by Lin Fan. How could he live so comfortably?

I just didn't expect that those guys were useless, and they are still letting the other side jump around.

"What are you here for?"

Li Yong took a step back and looked outside. There were some people gathered outside, all whispering. Some people who seemed to have forgotten Lin Fan wanted to rush in and stand on Li Yong's side, and finally gained Li Yong's attention. , but when he heard that this was Lin Fan, he quickly retracted his steps and returned to his original position calmly.

"Fuck you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Fan appeared in front of Li Yong and punched out with an unstoppable force. The force was so strong that he felt unable to resist. With a bang, the punch hit.

Wow!

Li Yong vomited blood, his facial features were distorted, and his eyes were about to burst.

He really didn't expect that the other party would just do it, without even a trace of hesitation.

Lin Fan grabbed Li Yong's head and punched him in the abdomen one after another. After several punches, he stopped, dragged the body and walked outside.

The surrounding survivors made an uproar and made way for a passage.

Everyone looked at Lin Fan in fear.

No one dared to move.

Lin Fan held Li Yong's body and stood there waiting, while looking around to see what was waiting for him.

Time passed by minute by minute.

Lin Fan shook his head and left the barrier. He was waiting for the barrier manager to appear, but the other party was still the same as before and did not appear. He did not take it to heart and had already given him all the opportunities he should have.

As a manager, you have never thought about taking revenge on the members.

Then you can’t blame me for not giving him a chance.

As Lin Fan left, there was a figure in the distance watching silently. He was the manager here. When he learned of Lin Fan's arrival, he did not come forward, but allowed him to kill Li Yong.

In his opinion, Li Yong asked for this.

He went out to grab the fragments, and let it go if he didn't grab them. However, he told other people the identity and address of Lin Fan who had grabbed the fragments, so that it spread around. The other party must have encountered a lot of trouble, so after learning that it was Li Yong who told others, He will definitely come for revenge.

This can't be blamed on anyone, but he can only blame himself for seeking death.

Even the managers were a little lucky.

He didn't come out last time, which already made Li Yong a little unhappy with him. When he has unhappy thoughts, betrayal is not far away, so Lin Fan killing Li Yong would still be helpful to him in his opinion.

boom!

"It must be him."

Lin Fan threw Li Yong's body on the ground. The old man got out of the car to check and after confirming that it was Li Yong, he couldn't bear it and kicked him several times angrily, "Yes, that's him..."

Li Yong, who had turned into a corpse, naturally did not know that the reason for his death was not because he told others about Lin Fan's identity, but because he killed the young wife bought by an old man with blood crystal.

If he knew this would be the case, even if he was beaten to death, he would never have done such a thing.

At this time, the old man was in a very happy mood.

It's just that he was very confused. It was unbelievable that he went to Liangang Barrier to kill people openly like this, but there was no movement at all.

Even Li Quanfei and the others are like this.

The eyes looking at Lin Fan were full of doubts.

Lin Fan didn't say much, got in the car and sent the old man back to the trading yard, got the fingernail-sized fragment directly, and then set off back to the barrier.

Temple Bay Barrier.

A group of people stood outside the barrier.

When Li Quanfei learned that instead of repairing the city wall, it was necessary to expand the city wall, he was shocked. He looked at his companions and couldn't help but said: "We have received a big project."

Expanding and rebuilding the city wall is a big project and will take a long time.

Although they are awakened people and build with the help of their abilities, they must do a lot of work every day, but compared with the amount of work covered by this project, it is still very small.

Lin Fan was talking to Lao Zhou and the others.

"We will start extending from the outer wall side. We only need to build three high walls and leave a gate passage for our cars to enter."

This was Lin Fan's idea, to expand the surrounding land to grow materials.

Lao Zhou thought about it and nodded: "It is indeed feasible, but the scope of expansion is a bit wide."

Then he glanced at Li Quanfei and the other three who were immersed in the big engineering project, quietly pulled Lin Fan aside, and whispered, "One person will receive ten level 2 blood crystals a day, and two will receive eight level 2 blood crystals. Now It won’t be too much, we can support it in the early stage, but judging from their situation, I’m afraid they won’t be able to complete it in a short time.”

Lao Zhou felt sorry for the blood crystals. These things needed to be hunted, and the reward required by the other party was a lot to be honest. It would be almost the same if it were replaced by a first-level blood crystal.

"The ability is in the hands of others. There is nothing we can do about it. The first-level blood crystals cannot attract them. If it is really a first-level blood crystal, with their strength, they can go out and hunt by themselves. Are you right?" Lin Fan said.

"That's what I say, but..."

Lao Zhou still thinks it is expensive. With the current financial resources of their Miaowan Barrier, it is really difficult to support it.

Or I shouldn’t say it’s difficult, but it’s extremely difficult, which is simply unrealistic.

Lin Fan patted Old Zhou on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Old Zhou, what do you think people living in the end of the world hope for most?"

"Needless to say, I definitely hope to have a stable living area, and it is best to return to the life that a normal human being should have." Old Zhou Balabala said, suddenly, his expression was slightly startled, and he looked at the The three of them looked at Lin Fan again, "Oh, do you want to..."

Hehe, a naughty smile appeared on his face.

Lin Fan secretly glanced at the three people who were in a state of excitement and said, "To win over, it's free of charge."

"High." Lao Zhou quietly gave a thumbs up, "Then what's the best way to win over him? If I say it too bluntly, I don't think the possibility of success is high."

"It's okay, I know it well," Lin Fan said.

"good."

Lao Zhou, who already knew the direction of development, adjusted his mentality, laughed loudly, and walked towards the three of them, "Let me tell you, this expansion is a new life for our Miaowan Barrier. What we want is high. It's big, strong, and we have no shortage of blood crystals, so you can go ahead and do it boldly."

Li Quanfei's eyes lit up, he patted his chest and said, "Brother, don't worry, we three brothers are all very skilled, and we guarantee that the city wall will be built beautifully."

"That's good, I'll arrange a place for you to live." Lao Zhou said.

"thank you."

Li Quanfei thinks this is really more beautiful than business.

Lao Zhou did not take them to the inner wall, but lived in the outer wall. A small shed was built on the outer wall to protect them from wind and rain. Li Quanfei and the others did not think there was anything wrong with this environment.

This environment is pretty good.

Thinking about the environment I lived in before, it seems that it was not as good as it is now.

night.

It's late at night, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse.

Li Quanfei, Gao Shan, and Xu Yang were resting and had to work tomorrow. In the afternoon, they followed each other and determined the length of the city wall.

I have to say, it is indeed a big project.

Li Quanfei looked at the night sky, "Brother Gao, Brother Xu, how long do you think we have to work on this project?"

Gao Shan thought, "I have calculated that it will take at least two months to take a break."

Xu Yang clasped his fingers and estimated, "Eight coins a day, that's 240 coins in a month, and 480 coins in two months. Let's give it away."

Gao Shan said: "Then do you think that if we all do our best, the other party will not admit it? It will be just like what we encountered before. We worked very hard, but in the end they drove us away directly. If we don't leave, they will Kill us, I’m really afraid of encountering this situation.”

As he said these words, it was like a basin of cold water was pouring on them, chilling their hearts to the core.

Li Quanfei said: "No, I think they are okay."

Xu Yang said: "I think so. Let's stop scaring ourselves. It's impossible, absolutely impossible. We will encounter any bad things."

Gao Shan said: "I hope so, but this barrier is a bit interesting. Materials are actually planted, and survivors live on the inner wall. Do you think we have seen this before?"

"No, I've never seen it before." Li Quanfei shook his head. They have been to many barriers and seen many situations. Awakeners and hunters often live in the inner walls, and their living conditions are very good, while ordinary survivors Those who live outside the wall live a life worse than that of a pig or a dog.

Xu Yang said: "Let's stay here and work during this time, earn some blood crystals, and improve our strength. In this end of the world, it is really difficult to stand without strength."

"Go to sleep, you have to get up and work tomorrow."

Without much chatting, the three of them lay down to sleep. The night wind was very cool. Fortunately, there were mosquito nets to avoid mosquito bites.

In the interior wall.

Lin Fan fed the nail fragments to La Tiao.

Then walked to the balcony.

Touching his chin.

He began to think about the script to win over the three people.

It must be carefully prepared.

Whether they can be brought in depends on how impactful the next script is.

The next day!

Construction has begun.

Lao Zhou manipulates scrap metal, twists it into fixed shapes, and then stacks them together.

Gaoshan uses his ability to dig down the ground.

The city wall must be stable and cannot be collapsed by a simple impact from a strange beast. No matter what, since work has been done, it must be done well.

Lin Fan arrived at the scene and began to inspect. Looking at the high efficiency of the mountain that could control the soil, he had to marvel. It is good to have the ability. For the work that one person does, if it were to be done by an ordinary person, it would at least require It takes dozens of people to catch up with each other's progress.

There are a lot of materials needed in the initial stage.

Even Li Bai was not spared from the work and needed to sort out the square boulders.

Xu Yang took the metal that Lao Zhou had made and started welding it into shape with his eyes shining.

time flies.

It's time for a break.

"The food in Miaowan Barrier is so good." Li Quanfei looked at the food in the lunch box and opened his mouth slightly, expressing that he was shocked and touched at the same time. They felt that they were taken seriously.

Gao Shan wiped the sweat from his forehead, "Yes, exotic animal meat and vegetable soup. Is this something we could think of before?"

The smart Xu Yang didn't talk nonsense to them and started eating. It tasted very delicious. Since the apocalypse broke out, it was good to be able to fill his stomach. Who else cares about whether the food tastes good or not.

at this time.

Clear laughter came.

Attracted the attention of Li Quanfei and others.

A child was running happily in the fields. The bright and sunny smile attracted their attention. They were fascinated by it for a while. They didn't know how long they hadn't seen the child show such a happy smile.

Little Hope happily jumped in front of them and said sweetly: "You three, how are you doing, uncle?"

"Hello, kid." Li Quanfei smiled, then handed over the lunch box in his hand, "Would you like something to eat?"

He knew that in the last days, children's lives would be the most miserable.

Incapable of taking care of oneself.

It's a great thing to have something to eat.

So he handed out the lunch box and wanted to share it with the children in front of him.

Little Hope waved her hand, "Thank you, uncle, but I have eaten. I am full."

As he spoke, he rubbed his round belly.

At this time, Li Quanfei realized that the clothes of the little girl in front of him were very clean, which was rare in the apocalypse. Only her master was a very powerful person to enjoy such good treatment.

"Kid, what does your family do? Are they the managers of this barrier?" Li Quanfei asked.

Little Hope shook her head and said, "No, I live with my dad. My dad works as a car wash in the barrier."

"ah?"

Li Quanfei blinked and looked at Little Hope in confusion.

The meaning in that look was clear.

Little girl, are you lying to me?

Car washing can give you such a life?

"Uncle, goodbye, my father is looking for me."

Little Hope did not continue chatting with them, but waved her hand and flew away into the distance.

at this time.

Li Quanfei looked at his companions, "Do you believe it?"

Gao Shan and Xu Yang looked at each other.

He shook his head tacitly.

"I don't believe it."

At this moment, they were very curious about the situation of the little girl just now.

Lin Fan peeked at this place and nodded with satisfaction.

Play hard to get.

Just arouse curiosity.

Take your time and take your time.
