In the Apocalypse, Hoarding Supplies with the System's Hundredfold Critical Hits
#36 - Chapter 36 Smooth Transaction
Li Ming sent out many troops to collect useful supplies everywhere.
Soon, many people in the Malga area learned that a group of people were driving speedboats around collecting supplies. They were well-equipped with guns and ammunition and had strong combat power.
The camouflage raincoats worn by Li Ming's soldiers had become their identity cards. Even if there were thug groups who wanted to make a move, they would dismiss their unrealistic thoughts upon seeing the camouflage raincoats.
Thugs are bad, not stupid; they can still distinguish between the big and small bosses.
Li Ming's troops blatantly paraded around with AKM rifles on their backs, but no one dared to cause them trouble, even the Renaissance Society turned a blind eye.
Because can the Renaissance Society's thousands of pistols and submachine guns compare to a force that can equip a large number of military rifles?
The fact that they dared to carry rifles openly proved that they were not afraid of others coveting them, and no one wanted to seek death.
Soon, some forces in Malga discovered a clue: this group of people rarely looked for survival supplies; the supplies they generally looked for were mostly books.
Generally speaking, as long as you don't provoke them, they are not murderers and won't shoot randomly.
Nevertheless, the appearance of Li Ming's army still made some black thug groups in Malga restrain their actions a lot.
It's not that there weren't thug groups who had ideas about the rifles on these people, but the result was that after fighting with them for a while, they were all wiped out, leaving no one alive.
The Renaissance Society noticed the large-scale appearance of Li Ming's army immediately, and discussions were underway within the Renaissance Society.
"Director Wang, do you mean to recruit them?" a middle-aged man asked.
"That's right, these people's weapons and equipment are very good, they have military rifles, and judging from their style of action, they are very close to the regular army. They should be a very organized and disciplined regular army."
"If we also have such an armed force, then our control over the relevant control areas will be greatly improved," Director Wang said.
"Hehe, Director Wang, what excuse are you going to use to recruit them?
These soldiers look like they come from the regular army, are well-equipped, and have strong combat power. Moreover, the force behind them is probably not simple. I suggest you dismiss these unrealistic ideas!" the middle-aged man shook his head.
"Director Li, anything is possible with effort. As citizens of the Empire, are they just going to stand by and watch the order collapse?" Director Wang said dissatisfiedly to the middle-aged man.
"Director Wang, you and I are very clear about the current situation. The Imperial government is gone.
The Renaissance Society is just a folk organization. Frankly speaking, we are not essentially different from them. Do you want to morally kidnap such a force?"
"They have no obligation to save the survivors. Frankly speaking, they have already given the survivors a way out; they don't look for too many basic survival supplies.
Otherwise, with their force, to be honest, it would be easy to grab a lot of survival supplies. But looking at what they collect, it's basically books and stuff."
"Obviously, they are not short of living supplies, but have other plans. Director Wang, I feel that trading and cooperating with them is also a good way.
As for crazy talk like recruiting them, I suggest you don't even mention it. The strength is not equal, what are you going to rely on to recruit them? Rely on your mouth?" Director Li directly stated the reality.
Director Wang was silent after hearing this. They were originally staff members of the Imperial government. The appearance of such an armed force under their noses made him feel really uneasy.
But Director Li's words directly awakened him. Now is not the time when the Empire existed; times have changed!
........
Soon, the day for Li Ming to trade with Manager Zhang and the others arrived. Li Ming took more than 20 people in 5 speedboats from the base and soon found a place on the water to wait.
He observed around with binoculars, and soon the sound of a speedboat engine came.
Li Ming used a flashlight to send out a light signal, and the other party responded. Soon, the two sides stopped their speedboats on the water about 50 meters apart.
"Is that Old Zhang?" Li Ming shouted.
"Is that President Li?" Old Zhang also shouted.
After confirming the voices were correct, the transaction process began.
Both sides sent one person each to inspect the goods. After the representatives sent to inspect the goods saw that the goods were intact, the transaction officially began.
Li Ming waved his hand, and a speedboat drove over. The other side drove 4 speedboats over. Li Ming saw clearly under the illumination of the searchlight that the other side had about 7 boats in total, with about 20 people.
In this transaction, the other party took out about 150 pieces of antique calligraphy and paintings for the transaction. Li Ming traded 3 crossbows, 60 arrows, plus 10 horizontal knives and 2 riot shields.
Old Zhang directly picked up a knife, pulled it out, and after seeing the thick back of the knife and the sharp blade, he nodded, it was a good knife.
After confirming that the transaction was completed, Li Ming and his people left the place by boat, and the other party also left afterwards.
In general, the first transaction between the two sides was very successful, each getting what they needed.
Theoretically speaking, antiques should be more valuable, but that is in prosperous and peaceful times. Now is the end of the world.
For ordinary people, antiques are useless in the end of the world. They can't be eaten or drunk and take up space. They are simply a burden.
Both sides felt that they had made a profit from this deal, especially Manager Zhang's side. This weapon and equipment transaction was only the first batch.
There will be more transactions later, which will undoubtedly greatly improve their combat effectiveness.
For Li Ming, trading weapons to those who pursue the light can maximize their value. Even if he wants to help the survivors, he should give priority to helping this kind of person, because these people still retain humanity.
It can be said that for Li Ming, even if he takes in survivors, this type of survivor is his first choice. They have good personal abilities and can still retain the light of humanity in the end of the world.
More importantly, the residents of this main city garden community are all smart people. They did not choose to fight on their own, but instead banded together to survive. It is more comfortable and easier to cooperate with these smart people.
If he wants to support some forces, he must also give priority to this type of person. They have principles in doing things, are very capable, and are very united.
The two sides quickly agreed on the time for the next transaction. After all, transactions in the end of the world rarely involve a large amount of supplies in a single transaction. Basically, they trade a little each time, and trade many times.
Everyone is not a fool, and they are all wary of each other, so no matter which aspect, this transaction method is the safest.
Old Zhang quickly returned to the community with the weapons and equipment........
