In the Apocalypse, Hoarding Supplies with the System's Hundredfold Critical Hits
#30 - Chapter 30 Renaissance Society
Li Ming was actually relatively benevolent towards ordinary survivors, but this benevolence was limited.
Because he didn't engage in large-scale looting of basic survival resources, he indirectly gave these ordinary people some chance of survival.
Of course, as mentioned earlier, if the empire's reserve grain fell into the hands of someone who wanted to stabilize order, Li Ming would not bother them. He might even engage in commercial cooperation with them.
However, if these imperial reserve grains fell into the hands of some nefarious gangs, these people would definitely face Li Ming's heavy-handed crackdown.
At this point, Li Ming had placed himself in the position of absolute arbiter.
He had to ensure that his position was unthreatened by any force, and he also had to ensure that a certain number of people survived. He would provide survivors with certain supplies through employment or trade to ensure they could live.
Even formally accepting survivors would only happen when there were no continuous natural disasters and the situation gradually stabilized.
Based on his experiences in his dreams, this doomsday natural disaster had not ended for seven whole years. He didn't know if there would be other natural disasters in the future, which shows how cruel this world-destroying disaster was.
In fact, many natural disasters do not happen very suddenly. They are basically preceded by omens, but whether or not these omens can be discovered and valued is a crucial step.
......
At this time, within the urban area of Marga City, a relatively powerful force was spontaneously formed by surviving imperial government officials, plus some surviving staff from relevant imperial departments, plus some civilians, called the Renaissance Society.
The purpose of this force is to restore social order in the Marga region.
Their idea is good, but unfortunately, their strength is too weak. All together, there are only a little over 10,000 people, of whom more than 5,000 are armed and responsible for maintaining the security of their controlled areas.
The entire urban area of Marga has a population of 60 million. Even if some people died in the doomsday, there are still more than 50 million people here.
It is unrealistic to try to control the order of a city with tens of millions of people with just over 10,000 people, so they can currently only control the security of a small part of the area.
This force is no longer the original official government, but a kind of folk organization, but their starting point is good, but unfortunately it is useless.
Because they don't have many supplies in their hands.
The doomsday natural disaster came very suddenly, and the Marga area did not have an imperial grain reserve warehouse. All supplies relied on external logistics and transportation. Therefore, they were simply unable to carry out effective work in various communities.
At the same time, black evil gangs and forces began to appear in some communities. These black evil forces began to collect supplies from all owners in the community in the name of collecting protection grain.
However, these black evil gangs currently have little power and can only control one building at most, and that's it.
It's not that there is no resistance, but those who take the lead in resistance often die very tragically.
After experiencing it a few times, some ordinary survivors felt that they couldn't beat these people, so they could only constantly go out to find supplies.
The black evil forces' commission for protection grain is very high, about 50%.
At this ratio, if some survivors are relatively diligent, they can still make enough for themselves and their families to survive. The black evil gangs obviously have their own considerations. They are also afraid of pushing everyone into a corner and resisting them together.
Of course, many black evil forces are still in the initial stage and have not yet reached the point where they are too big to fail. However, these black evil gangs are basically dominated by cold weapons, and only one or two people in a few gangs have pistols, and the number of bullets is not large.
Most of them basically found pistols and other weapons from abandoned police stations. The number of these weapons and ammunition is very limited.
What is really starting to be a threat is some out-of-control imperial troops.
The light weapons in the hands of these troops are far from what this group of black evil forces can compare with. If a large number of weapons from the imperial army flow into society, it will definitely cause more instability.
Fortunately, although the imperial army has lost a lot of people, the internal management of guns and ammunition in the army is very strict, so many weapons and ammunition were locked in armories and ammunition depots from the beginning.
Finally, they were submerged underwater, rather than flowing into society.
After experiencing extreme cold, the frozen weapons and ammunition will experience various problems after experiencing extreme heat again, and can no longer be used.
So, in Li Ming's dream, the basis for a large force having a large number of light weapons comes from this. Generally speaking, a force with more than 3,000 guns is considered a large force.
......
This Renaissance Society is still the largest force in Marga City on the surface, because they have more than 5,000 guns, and the amount of ammunition is not small, enough for short-term use.
They also discovered these problems, so on the one hand, they began to mobilize residents in the communities who were in contact with them to go out to find supplies, salvage underwater survival supplies, and coordinate them uniformly.
On the other hand, they directly came forward and established a trading market.
At this time, although the heavy rain was constantly falling, the heavy rain could not stop humans from going out to find hope for survival. Countless survivors braved the rain to go out to find various supplies.
Social security also began to gradually become out of control. Survivors were often robbed on the way while looking for supplies and accidentally lost their lives.
There were also survivors who robbed others and were killed in retaliation. In short, in the dark corners of the city, the ugly side of human nature was being staged all the time.
Robbery, theft, murder, perseverance, and other criminal acts began to appear in all corners of the city, and the number of cases showed a very obvious upward trend.
In the doomsday, natural disasters are certainly terrible, but as long as humans adapt to natural disasters, if they can guarantee unity, survival is not that difficult.
The most terrible thing in the doomsday is often man-made disasters. The danger of your own kind is far greater than other factors. Because people can do anything for the sake of profit.
In the doomsday, even brothers may turn against each other for supplies, let alone some strangers around you?
You must know that the doomsday is known as the dark, man-eating doomsday. This is not a joke.
.......
People are very complex animals, especially in a world with so many negative emotions like the doomsday. Basically, few of the people who survive are normal. Although this is a bit extreme, it is the truth.
Because to survive in this man-eating doomsday, you must be ruthless and dark enough!
After being suppressed for a long time, you will naturally develop some psychological diseases, which will make people very manic and irritable.
