Chapter 126 Why No One Wants It?
The basement door was opened.
Jiang Chen watched the 1.7-meter man rush into the door, smashed the lock of the "cell" with the butt of a gun, and hugged his wife tightly while crying. The woman's upper body was red and her eyes were a little dull, but she seemed to be infected by the cry, and her eyes gradually recovered, filled with tears of sadness.
"There is always a feeling that I can't bear to look directly." Jiang Chen's tone was a bit complicated, and he said to himself.
"Then what are you going to do with those captives?" Sun Jiao glanced at the door that closed Zhou Xiaoxia.
"Public execution."
A choice without hesitation at all.
For prestige, for order.
After a pause, Jiang Chen continued, "But before that, I want to meet our old enemy."
Hearing this, Sun Jiao's mouth also raised a playful smile.

Zhou Guoping sat in the prison slumped. He knew about his fate, but he still held a glimmer of hope in his heart. He didn't mind who he worked for, he was very confident in his smart head. However, when he saw the face outside the small window, his confidence disappeared in an instant, and his face lost its blood.
"Yo, remember me?" Jiang Chen said with a smile. Although Jiang Chen had never met him, he must have known Jiang Chen.
Zhou Guoping swallowed hard and nodded slowly.
"Remember Hu Lei?"
I really miss it, that was the first person he killed after he came to this world.
Jiang Chen vaguely remembered what it was like. The shock of watching the skull burst under the smoke of the gun.
"I was slaughtered by you, right?" Zhou Guoping smiled, but it was uglier than crying.
"Yes, there is no reason to let him go." Jiang Chen's tone was very relaxed.
"Then what time are you wasting with me?" Zhou Guoping said with a wry smile.
Jiang Chen grinned. Then he put his hand on the door panel.
"You have two choices now. One, shake out everything you know. If it has enough value, I may consider killing you. Of course, I will also ask others this question, so you'd better be honest. Two. I believe I don't need to tell you."
"I choose one." There is no need to hesitate to choose, he doesn't want to die yet. Even if he knew what he said, most of the time he died.
"You can start." Jiang Chen said with a smile.
In order to survive, Zhou Guoping also shook out everything he knew. According to his dictation, Jiang Chen still obtained a lot of useful information.
The first is the material aspect.
Except for the quadruple machine guns that they had already looted. In addition to the bullet production line, there is also a zombie generator in the basement of the laboratory building.
It uses zombies or alien fats, proteins and other organic matter as raw materials to output electricity.
This is a good thing. Winter is coming soon, and the power generation of the Fishbone Base, which is mainly powered by solar power, will definitely decline. If you have this zombie generator, you don't have to worry about the energy of the base for the time being.
It's really surprising that these bandits actually hide such a good thing.
In addition to supplies, Jiang Chen also heard a lot of interesting information.
"The group of mutants came from Jiashi and are now stationed at No. 7. They originally wanted to incorporate us. But our boss refused, and no one wanted to become eunuchs. Only 5 people came in the first wave. , we successfully killed them. I didn't expect a large group of them this time." Zhou Guoping smiled bitterly, "It was a disaster, our boss was directly smashed half of his head."
I mean, why didn't I see the head of the Grey Gu mercenary group, who was killed in the firefight.
"Where is Land No. 7?" Jiang Chen frowned, the terrain on the end of the apocalypse was quite different from the details on the present side.
Zhou Guoping gave him a strange look.
"Between the expressway between Wanghai City and Jia City, there is a light industrial area. There are very few people there, and there are no zombies. But there are some powerful aliens."
Jiang Chen pinched his chin thoughtfully.
"Do you know what their purpose for coming to Wanghai City is?"
Hearing this, Zhou Guoping showed a wry smile again.
"I don't know, there is no possibility of negotiation between mutants and humans. In my opinion, except for the fact that they don't eat human flesh, they are a group of aliens who can use guns."
This metaphor made the expression on Jiang Chen's face a little weird, and when he thought about it confidently, it seemed that this was the case. They can eat things that humans can't eat, and they can eat things that aliens dare not eat, even the carrion pieces on Roshan. They can enter and exit the nuclear bomb crater only with their physical bodies, and no vaccine virus will affect them anymore.
Thank goodness these monsters are eunuchs.
"Didn't you take a prisoner and ask?" Zhou Guoping asked cautiously.
Jiang Chen glanced at him.
"No, you said that they are the same as aliens. Have you tried to grab a dead claw?"
Zhou Guoping sneered and touched his nose.
"Boss, that, do you think the information I provided is enough to change my life?"
Jiang Chen looked at him with a half-smile, which made him feel shivering.
To kill or not to kill?
"Although I have caused you a lot of trouble, it was only because I was on the side of the Grey Gu mercenary group at the time, and now that the Grey Gu mercenary group has been destroyed by you, you can kill me. It's just one more corpse. You can leave me alone, trust me, my ability will not disappoint you." Seeing the expression on Jiang Chen's face, Zhou Guoping said cautiously.
"Oh? What are you talking about?" Jiang Chen glanced at him and smiled.
"I'm very familiar with Songjiang. I know some small survivor bases and the locations of gathering points to some extent. Besides, my eloquence and detection ability are good, and I will definitely not waste your nutritional mixture. In addition, wear You don't need to worry about my loyalty when you wear something like an electronic collar or a slave chip, right?" After all, it was about his own life, so Zhou Guoping's words were very cautious. While observing the change in Jiang Chen's expression, he said.
Killing seems to be one more corpse. If you don't kill it, you can still be a cannon fodder. Although the bandit has to be killed, this person seems to be useful.
After a moment of thought. Jiang Chen made a decision, looked at Zhou Guoping's anxious face, and said with a smile.
"Very good, you convince me, I will save your life, I hope you can convince others for me in the future."
Hearing this, Zhou Guoping was overjoyed. Immediately, he knelt on the ground without dignity.
"Thank you boss for not killing!"
Glancing at him with disgust, Jiang Chen coughed lightly.
"Call me boss. I'm not a bandit."
"Yes! Boss."
......
After dealing with Zhou Guoping's matter, Jiang Chen walked to the door that closed Chu Nan.
Glancing at the man who was no longer making a fuss, Jiang Chen reached out and knocked on the door.
After hearing the sound of the door, Chu Nan raised his head. Seeing it was Jiang Chen, a wry smile appeared on his face.
"Can you let me out?"
"Of course, do you want me to open the door now?" Jiang Chen took out the key and shook it, smiled and then asked, "Can I ask where you're going next?"
Hearing this, Chu Nan fell into a brief silence.
"I don't know, Liu Dingzhen can't go back anyway."
Seeing this, Jiang Chen asked in a relaxed tone, "Are you coming to my place?"
heard. Chu Nan raised his head and glanced at Jiang Chen.
"Aren't you short of pilots?"
Jiang Chen shrugged, "I've changed my mind now, although there's no plane right now. But I'll definitely get one soon."
Looking at Jiang Chen suspiciously, Chu Nan was still a little hesitant.
"I don't even know what kind of organization you are—"
"The kind of bread you ate last time is enough for three meals a day."
"Deal!" Almost without hesitation, Chu Nan immediately shouted.
"Don't you think about it?" Jiang Chen laughed.
"Hehe, is this still worth considering?" Chu Nan touched his nose and sneered.
joke. There is food for every meal. Although Liu Dingzhen's ration for this kind of pilot was a B-level nutrient mixture, it was even A-level. Nima is not as delicious as food.
Jiang Chen nodded and said, "Well, in two days, I will send you to the sixth block to have a chip implanted, and then you will be a member of our Fishbone Base."
After speaking, Jiang Chen turned around and prepared to leave, but at this moment——
"Wait a minute." Chu Nan suddenly stopped him.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Chen turned his head and looked at him in confusion.
"That..." After Chu Nan hesitated for a moment, "What are you going to do with those women?"
those women?
Jiang Chen couldn't help falling into contemplation.
He almost ignored the question. Thinking about it, those women who were almost spoiled by the bandits were really hard to deal with. Bring back? But what's the use of keeping these people? The fish bone base is not a welfare institution.
stay here? Just let it go? That is no different from killing them directly.
"Actually, it's useful for you to bring them back to the base." Chu Nan seemed to see Jiang Chen's hesitation and suggested.
"Oh? What's the use?" Jiang Chen glanced at Chu Nan, and suddenly laughed, "Are you looking for a girl to get rid of the virgin?"
Chu Nan was stunned for a while, then reacted and said angrily.
"Grass, my name is Chunan, but I never said I was a virgin."
After a pause, Chunan took a deep breath and continued.
"If you don't even have implanted chip technology, you should be a new small survivor base."
Jiang Chen glanced at him unexpectedly, this analysis was quite reasonable.
"That's right, so what?" Jiang Chen directly admitted without denying it.
"In the wasteland, men's survival ability is stronger than women's, so the ratio of men to women can be imagined. I don't know about the sixth block, but there are many bachelors in Liuding Town." Chu Nan said seriously.
"Like you?" Jiang Chen laughed.
"That's right." Nodding without shyness, Chunan continued, "If it is in Liuding Town, there is an official technical institute for survivors to release the pressure of survival and solve their physical needs. It can deter possible crime and help to promote stability within the base.”
"Really? Everyone in my fishbone base is implanted with a 'slavery chip'. Do you think I need to worry about any stability issues?" Jiang Chen looked at Chu Nan noncommittally and asked with a smile.
"I've implanted that kind of chip before. Yes, although the names are different, the functions must be similar. Let's put it this way, although you can monitor everyone's health, and also control everyone's life and death, you can't Determine everyone's mood."
"So what?" Jiang Chen asked thoughtfully.
“You can’t expect a bunch of bachelors to have any hope for tomorrow unless you can keep everyone hungry forever and have no time to think about anything other than survival. It might be fine in the short term, but it will definitely go wrong in the long run. Especially In this wasteland shrouded in radioactive dust, everyone's mental state is actually not much better." Chu Nan said sharply.
mental state? Jiang Chen didn't think about it, he seemed to only pay attention to his own mental state.
For example, when he first returned to the present world from the end of the world, he immediately went to Sanya* once.
In the slums of the 6th block, wouldn't the unemployed survivors have the desire to "reproduce" because they were starved all day long? And after arriving at the fish bone base, because the problem of food and clothing has been solved, will you start thinking about that aspect?
Perhaps as Chunan said, unless you can keep everyone hungry forever, it's impossible to expect them not to have new demands. Even if Jiang Chen can control their life and death, he cannot control everyone's emotions. After all, not everyone has the ideal of being a monk.
Although he deliberately selected some people with families when he bought the survivors (slaves), he also controlled the ratio of males and females. But no matter how you control it, until now, the male population is several times the female population. Should I let the remaining bachelors face each other? Obviously it doesn't work.
"In other words, do you think I should open a technical academy?" Jiang Chen's expression was a little weird, this approach was contrary to his concept.
"Of course, there are other ways." Chu Nan paused, he noticed the disgust for this kind of behavior from Jiang Chen's face, so he added, "For example, treat these people as 'prize', reward the right person A bachelor who has contributed to the base."
"Prize? I don't approve of inhumanity."
"Humanity? Do you think this is before the war?"
Jiang Chen was stunned and fell into silence.
"If you're really morally obsessed, you can choose to make laws to protect the rights of these people. For example, prohibit the owner from maiming them or something, and reward people who make them sane and participate in the work. In short, Since you are the leader, these systems can be made by you, the key is how you choose."
After listening to Chu Nan's words, Jiang Chen glanced at Chu Nan in surprise.
"I can't see it, you know a lot?"
"Haha, I read a few books when I was free." Chu Nan touched his nose.
Just as he was about to leave, Jiang Chen suddenly stopped again and asked casually.
"By the way, do you think there will be someone else for these n-hand goods?"
Chu Nan was stunned and looked at Jiang Chen in confusion.
"Why doesn't anyone want it?"
Jiang Chen was speechless.
Is this the legendary generation gap? (To be continued)
