Chapter 157 I Have Plenty of Ways to Make You Agree
"Rare minerals... I understand, what do you want, please provide a list, and we will try our best to find whatever we can find.
"But, intelligence, what kind of intelligence does it mean?"
After the two parties talked for a while.
The man said: "This amount of food and water can only provide at most one thousand kilograms of minerals. You must know that if we go to find minerals now, we have to risk our lives."
One thousand kilograms is already a lot, and it can be seen how scarce water and food are.
If the radiation outside was not too strong and polluting organisms were active, mining and searching for minerals would also take time. It is estimated that men can provide as many minerals as they want, as long as the other party can provide more water and food in exchange.
In this world full of radiation, food and water are used less and less, especially clean water, which has become more precious than gold.
After all, no matter how much gold you have, you can't survive even three days without water.
Du Jiashi said: "Our city does not lack water and food. What we lack is people, a lot of people."
He was talking about the lack of labor force, because he thought of what Mi Lan said, if you want to leave civilization, then people are the most important.
Relying on the trade of supplies, it might be possible to capture this gathering place without spending a single soldier.
However, it was different to the man's ears. His expression changed and became very ugly.
The people next to him looked even more excited, and some even raised their lowered guns, but the man raised his hand to stop them.
"Varti, do you want to cooperate with these devils?"
"We have persisted for so long just to survive, and there is no way we can provide them with live pigs."
Live pig? what is that? It doesn’t always feel like a good word. Du Jiashi thought.
Xu Rou thought to herself, why did they suddenly become so excited? Was there anything wrong with what they just said?
She went through Du Jiashi's words in her mind and found that there were indeed some ambiguities in them, so she added: "What we mean is that we want to build a gathering place here, so we need to recruit some talents."
The man named Varti looked surprised: "Establish a gathering place? Don't you have your own city?"
"Is she lying to us? There is nothing here, and the amount of radiation exceeds the standard. It is not as good as the place occupied by the central gathering place. How could anyone come here to establish a gathering place?"
They didn't believe anyone would do such a thankless job.
Du Jiashi raised his hand: "Wait a minute, what does live pig mean?"
Varti and his companions looked strange: "You don't know what a live pig is?"
Du Jiashi: "Although I know this word, I feel that what you mean is different from what I understand."
Varti observed Du Jiashi, Xu Rou and others again.
They ranged in age, but two of them looked like kids who hadn't grown up yet.
There is still childishness on their faces, and there is no numbness and despair in Du Jiashi's and his others' faces as they struggle to survive in the apocalypse.
There is still a light of hope for life in his eyes.
How ironic is this?
They are obviously living in such a hopeless world. What kind of paradise do they live in so that they can't see the suffering in the outside world?
Valti said in a bad tone: "Live pig, isn't it what you people in the central gathering place use to describe low-class people like us who have no value?"
"In exchange for some food for a person, as for what they bought those live pigs for, heh, they could use them as slaves, consumables, experimental subjects, or goods for venting, anything is possible."
So this is what live pigs mean, Du Jiashi thought, and then explained: "No, we don't mean to buy you, we really intend to build a gathering place here."
Mi Lan watched boredly as these brats were racking their brains on how to persuade each other. She tilted her head and said, "It's too slow."
Mi Lan snapped his fingers, making everyone look at him, and then he said: "I don't want to talk nonsense to you. If you don't agree... I have a way to make you agree."
Valti's expression turned ugly, "What do you mean?"
"It means..." Mi Lan snapped her fingers again: "You can't help but disagree."
Valti's companion was furious, and when he was about to pull the trigger to give the person on the other side a warning, he was alarmed to find that his body had become very strange.
Something was boiling and squirming in his body. He looked at his arms and found that the skin on them had bulged bumps one after another, and they were squirming inside, as if there were countless bugs turning inside.
He shouted in horror: "Ahhhh, what is this?"
His companions also screamed one after another. They couldn't even hold the weapons in their hands and fell to the ground one after another. They were also so frightened that they couldn't stand still and sat on the ground.
Mi Lan raised a smile and said, "This is divine punishment."
Valti was anxious inside, but just as he was about to move, an indescribable feeling came over his body, as if the blood in his body was being controlled by someone.
He thought helplessly: So that's it, isn't the other party on the same level as us?
"Please stop. We agree to all your demands. We just hope that you will be noble and don't kill us."
Du Jiashi and the other four looked shocked. Is there such an operation?
Yang Yu twitched the corner of his mouth, what did they do before? Thinking of their stupid actions before, he suddenly wanted to cover his face.
Yes, they are all contract masters, and this mission is rare and there is no restriction on the use of abilities. They only thought of verbal communication instead of directly using their abilities to coerce the other party.
Is it because of the inertia of thinking?
Du Jiashi scratched his face, "In fact, we are not very proficient in controlling the weirdness, fortunately, Lord Mi Lan is here."
They are not able to control it so finely now, and it is possible that they will kill everyone directly after releasing the weirdness.
It is more than enough to save their lives, but it is difficult to achieve this kind of coercion effect.
Walti lowered his head and said respectfully: "My lord who came from a distant city, do you have any instructions? As long as we can do it in the Baisha gathering place, we will definitely do it."
The experience just now made him know that he had no right to resist the other party. In this case, it is better to put down his self-esteem and perhaps save his life.
For those who struggle in the doomsday, nothing is more important than being alive.
"Give us detailed information about all the gathering places here."
Mi Lan: "Also, I need to know which gathering place these people are from."
Valti saw the photo that Mi Lan took out, which showed a group of people wearing combat uniforms with their faces covered.
