How Am I Still Alive?

Chapter 442 Bidding

Shi Lai Ling, with a large area, occupies several mountains and has three cities and one guard. It has a large population, probably above 100,000. Although it is worth complaining about under a million, the statistics these years are at this level.

The five-month long night brought them great disasters. The most obvious thing was that the agriculture that depended on the sky for food was directly over.

"...We farmers don't know what to do with this. You good and strong young man can only stay at home."

Historically, large-scale unemployment will definitely cause social turmoil, but the peasants are trapped on the ground. As long as they are not really unable to survive, the fluctuations will slow down, unlike a three-month general strike in a factory. The city may disappear in a wave.

But in the current situation, even if the farmers are willing to be trapped on the ground, they really can't survive. The long night for nearly half a year has consumed most of their resources, and there is no sign of a solution to the food shortage in Shi Lai's market. .

"Half a year, as long as you persist for half a year."

Everyone is struggling to support the "half a year" agreement, which is the safety period given by the previous scholars. And if the sun does not come out when the time comes, it may really become a blockbuster that overwhelms everything normal.

"...We must be prepared for the sun not to come out."

Just at this moment, the lord hinted at the high-level of the knight order, everything that might happen.

The source of the information is not important anymore. The senior members of the knight order, including Catherine, have not been overwhelmed by this shocking news, and they can already be called strong.

Facing the bewildered and numb people, they are actually even more bewildered.

"Dick and Finn believe in doomsday religion? Damn it, forget them, let them think about it behind closed doors."

Some knights believed in "cults" at this time, and spread doomsday theory within the knight order.

Catherine, who had just returned, was furious at first, then sighed helplessly, and fell down gently.

"The great Eternal Burning Sun, have you really given up on us?"

Looking at the long night outside the window, stroking the platinum icon hanging on her chest, her faith also fell into confusion.

Based on her understanding of the lord's nobles, the hint "the sun may not come at some point" is actually equivalent to the express statement "the sun probably won't come, we have to find our own way out".

Can find a way out? When it's pitch black everywhere, there's no way out.

"An apostle of the god of travel and bonfires?"

Involuntarily, she remembered that she met a group of outsiders this morning, who obviously came here with some purpose.

But the next moment, she shook her head. As the knight captain of the knight order, she could not waver at this time, let alone entrust her future to the so-called "outer gods" like those doomsday believers.

——

"It's very bad, quite bad. The local situation is one aspect. The mess left by the people in front is a big trouble."

Looking at the collected information, Lu Pingan sighed helplessly.

The constant disasters in the local area are actually just trivial things. What is really terrible is always the people's hearts.

The previous batch of "outsiders" seem to have done a good job. They have been operating here for several years and have become a way of livelihood for many people and civilians. Their sudden "betrayal" has also directly transformed the original trust into Hatred. On the way Lu Pingan came, he saw a lot of hostile and vigilant eyes.

"Those seniors are relatively reliable, and some are even more extreme."

Those seniors who set up factories at least had investment, investment, and income, and some outsiders even started business without capital. Now on the local arrest warrant, there are a lot of people from other regions, and Lu Pingan is on it Saw several human faces.

In a sense, it really cannot be said that what they did was wrong. After all, the time is getting shorter and shorter. At this time, it is better to "sustainably exhaust the fish" and "destructive development" instead of engaging in long-term operation and mutual benefit.

To put it bluntly, trading is not as fast as robbery. Whatever you want, just do it.

"These people." Everyone felt a little helpless. This was really a disaster. If he and his party hadn't used food to open the way, they might not be able to get in at all, and they might even be arrested directly.

Glancing at his colleagues, Lu Pingan shook his head. In a sense, the people in his group also made a mistake.

"Everyone, be sober, this world is hopeless, and you are not special service members from your hometown, let alone saviors. We are here to complete the mission, to continue the life of our world, and for our bright future. I am not against it. Compassion, that's a good thing, especially internally, but watch out, what's most important, don't forget"

Xia Qin wanted to say something, but in the end she just shook her head.

She also knows that she and her party have been "security officers" for a long time, so she has some sympathy for the world and its residents.

She also knew that Lu Ping'an's words were correct, but what did she and her party do? After four or five months at most, everything would be over, and all rescues were meaningless. When the ship was doomed to sink, what could be done?

"Lu Ping'an, the one that came with the ticket," but Xia Qin still asked.

"It's up to you, I don't care." After thinking for a while, Lu Pingan made a judgment.

Now, many people breathed a sigh of relief. They actually have a lot of ideas, but they have never been able to speak out.

Tickets come and go, but not for one person. Each ticket can bring three people back with goods within 100KG. This is the "shopping quota" for each person.

The carrying capacity of the Kingdom of God is not unlimited. All sports consume energy, and each ticket means the consumption of countless resources.

The number of people and the total amount of goods on the additional ticket are controlled, and the carrying capacity should not be exceeded.

And even if it is really unlimited, the share given to grassroots explorers is limited. The extra ticket for the return ticket is the biggest benefit for each explorer.

They can buy a lot with these tickets, like a nobleman's all but life.

Of course, this is quite a stupid approach. Compared with those old-age nobles who can't do anything but pamper themselves, a local high-level technician and high-level sealer are much more meaningful.

treasure? If it is within 100KG, it is really not as good as some rare plant samples, technical materials, and ancient cultural books.

These additional tickets are derivatives of Lu Ping'an and Guan Xinxian's exploration qualifications. In a sense, they are his "property". "I brought you here, and you still want to eat my resources to make your own profit? That's too much."

But Lu Pingan didn't need it. Although the capacity of his "garden" couldn't match the cargo capacity of the Kingdom of God, there was no need to stare at the extra income brought by the dozen or so additional tickets.

In fact, Xia Qin asked directly, it was a bit too much, many teams were assigned by the default team leader, but on the one hand, she knew that Lu Pingan didn't care at all, on the other hand, she also had a little sympathy overflowing.

At least her three tickets will mostly be used on "worthless" people.

"Feel sorry."

"It's okay. I'm at ease if you do something stupid."

In a word, Xia Qin can't fix it again, and it also makes the atmosphere a little more relaxed.

Difficulties lie ahead, but they are not the most important. Lu Pingan, who leads the group, is very sober. His party is no different from the previous "senior". As a passer-by, I am not here for charity, but for profit.

"Well, let's see what's worth taking here."
