Chapter 100: Heavenly King Covers the Earth Tiger
"What is a hero?" Du Ge interrupted everyone and stood up suddenly. "Self-sacrifice, standing up in the face of danger. Selflessness, sacrificing oneself for others... What does it mean for you all to make me hide in the back? Do you look down on me, Brother Hu?"
The loyalty of Gou Kun and the others surprised Zhang Zhenkui, but the recklessness of Qi Feihu also gave them a headache. He was just a thug, pretending to be a hero?
In the current situation, isn't it the best choice for you to stay behind with your deterrent power?
Zhang Zhenkui frowned slightly. Did he overestimate him?ViiSiit novelbi/n(.)c/(o)m for latest novels
Did everything he did before just happen by chance?
After hesitating for a moment, Zhang Zhenkui decided to persuade Du Ge to stay with his rich life experience. "Qi Dong, now is not the time to show heroism..."
"Manager Zhang, please stop." Du Ge waved his hand and interrupted him again. "In this crisis, I must lead by example to truly gain the trust of others." He slapped the pistol on the table. "Besides, who among them can fight like me?"
"But..."
Du Ge said, "There's nothing to argue about. On this trip, we still need to expand the market for the company and negotiate business deals. Without me, who will handle the business?"
Searching for resources is one thing, but negotiating business deals?
Looking at Du Ge, who was unyielding, Zhang Zhenkui instinctively covered his heart, feeling that he had misjudged Du Ge yesterday.
What group effect?
What domestication?
This guy is just an ignorant thug, unable to accomplish anything...
If it weren't for the newly established Infinite Charity Company stabilizing the order in the underground garage, Zhang Zhenkui would have been tempted to leave and never deal with this brute again.
But he couldn't leave. He had to take responsibility for Du Ge and at least not let the garage fall into chaos.
...
Impulsive, reckless!
Doing things without thinking.
Indeed, he was thinking too much.
Yao Tong didn't think there was anything wrong with his actions just now. He looked at the furious Du Ge and began to consider how to kill him legally and reasonably when they went out to find supplies, so that he could smoothly inherit his position.
"Qi Dong is really loyal," Du Ge insisted on going out with them, and Gou Kun and the others were deeply moved. Their thuggish nature resurfaced, and they patted their chests one by one, saying, "Brother Hu, rest assured, with us by your side, not a single hair of yours will be harmed."
"Good, it's settled then." Du Ge waved his hand. "Tomorrow, the Business Department and the Marketing Department will go out with me to expand the market. Tonight, let's have a good meal and equip ourselves with various weapons. Manager Gou, you can discuss the battle formation and ensure good coordination among each other."
"The logistics department should be prepared to receive the supplies."
"The information department should work overtime tonight and tune in to more radio channels to understand the situation outside."
"After we go out, the security department will be responsible for maintaining the order of the warehouse and preventing mutant animals and others from breaking in."
"The technology department should be prepared to study mutant animals and see how to process them so that humans can mutate like them. This is the core of the company and must be done well. Everyone has worked hard since the establishment of the company..."
One by one, the orders were given in an orderly manner. Except for the idea of having humans mutate like mutant animals, which was a bit far-fetched, everything else was reliable.
...
That night.
The warehouse was busy.
There were about fifty young and strong people from the Business Department and the Marketing Department gathered in the warehouse.
The night passed without incident.
The next day.
The price of breakfast was changed back to "Brother Hu, the Great Benefactor."
During the transaction process, Du Ge checked his ranking. He had moved up twenty places and was currently ranked 160th. However, the total number of people in the Simulation Field had dropped to just over 500, which was much faster than the elimination rate in the previous Simulation Field.
He sighed. In the post-apocalyptic world, even with Keywords, survival was not easy.
For Keywords like trading, rapid growth required expanding the scale of trade and increasing the number of trading partners.
Merely messing around in the warehouse, he probably wouldn't even make it into the top ten by the end of the Simulation Field...
...
"Director Qi, a large survivor shelter has been established in Xilin City. It is said that there is a military force maintaining order there, calling for all surviving refugees to gather there and build a new home together." Han Xuecai from the Information Department reported yesterday's monitoring situation to Du Ge with a piece of paper in his hand.
The people around perked up their ears, excitedly asking, "Old Han, is it true?"
"Is the government in charge?"
"Tell us, what's the situation with the shelter?"
...
Compared to the Charity Unlimited Company established by Du Ge, a large, organized shelter was obviously more likely to give these survivors a sense of belonging, especially when they heard that there was a military force maintaining order there.
"Don't get too excited too soon." Du Ge snorted, pouring cold water on them, "Tell me, how far is Xilin City from us?"
"Over 800 miles." Han Xuecai was taken aback.
"Why doesn't the other side, with their military, come out to gather the refugees, but instead asks the refugees to actively go to them?" Du Ge asked, "Over 800 miles, how risky is it to go there, how many people will die, don't they know?"
"Maybe they can't handle it!" Someone muttered quietly.
"If they can't handle it, they should let everyone hide in place, store more food, and wait for them to come to the rescue, instead of letting the refugees risk their lives to go there." Du Ge said, "That survivor point obviously wants to absorb more people in this way, expand their team, and serve them. They don't care how many people die along the way. In the end of the world, people are everything. Don't think too highly of them."
At these words, everyone fell silent.
"Let's survive first. In this chaotic world, there aren't many kind and conscientious people like me." Du Ge chuckled, shook his head, and grabbed a child next to him, "Little guy, do you think I'm kind? If you answer correctly, I'll give you a piece of chocolate!"
The child was initially scared when Du Ge grabbed him, but when he saw the chocolate in his hand, his eyes sparkled, and he said in a childish voice, "Brother Hu is the kindest."
"Good boy, let me tell you something, don't judge a book by its cover. Some people who look ugly and fierce may not be bad people!" Du Ge smiled and ruffled his hair, stuffing the chocolate into his hand, "Remember this, when Brother Hu comes back, I'll bring you more chocolate."
After sending the child away, Du Ge looked up, "Anything else?"
"In addition to calling for refugees, they have been repeatedly broadcasting a code - 'Heavenly King Covers the Earth Tiger.'" Han Xuecai said.
Du Ge was taken aback, turned his head to look at Yao Tong, who was wearing his underwear inside out and had a small braid sticking up, and laughed, "Yao Tong, there are your companions there!"
Yao Tong's face didn't look too good, and he couldn't help but curse, "Damn!"
Du Ge laughed and asked again, "Anything else?"
"A survivor point in an air-raid shelter in Linjiang City also broadcasted the 'Heavenly King Covers the Earth Tiger' code, and also broadcasted information about the Heavenly Demon, with characteristics exactly as Yao Tong described. They warned everyone to be careful. The harm of the Heavenly Demon is no less than that of mutant animals. If they are found, they should be killed immediately while they are weak." Han Xuecai glanced at Yao Tong and said, "They also said that everyone should be careful. The harm of the Heavenly Demons is not less than that of mutant animals. If they are found, they should be killed immediately while they are weak."
"Damn!"
Yao Tong cursed again, his mouth twitching as he looked at Du Ge, "Brother Hu, other Heavenly Demons may be harmful, but I'm different. I've already signed a contract with you. I'm harmless to everyone, no, I'm beneficial!"
