Chapter 249 (2/2)
”Food?” Frowning, Duomei tentatively asked, ”well, we can help you bring some food, but... How many people do you have?”
Hearing how beautiful the words were, the old man's eyes lit up and trembled: ”we now have more than 10000 people, so...”
”What!” He screamed in horror. How beautiful and exaggerated he shouted, ”ten thousand people! That's not true. We're not businessmen. We can't get so much food, and... What can you pay us? ”
Listening to the beautiful words, the old man pointed to the broken buildings around him and said, ”although those cruel thieves burned everything, we are rich in metals, which can't be burned by the fire, so... As long as you get food, you can take these metals from here at will!”
”Cut...” disdained, and Duomei shook her head and said, ”you are too naive. Are those goods yours? How can you handle them? And... If I want these metals, I'll pull them myself. Does anyone dare to stop me? ”
At the same time, Duomei continued: ”this city is already in ruins. It can be said that it is an ownerless thing. Even if you occupy it, no one dares to say no, so... Don't fool me with ownerless things!”
Speaking of this, how beautiful frowned and said, ”by the way, since the thieves have robbed, how do you more than 10000 people remain? Is it the thieves who are so kind? ”
He shook his head with a bitter smile. The old man said bitterly: ”we survived because we were all working in the mine at that time, so we narrowly escaped this disaster. Those thieves killed even children and pregnant women. How can we have any kindness?”
Clearly nodded, Duomei helplessly shrugged her shoulders and said, ”well, I really want to help you, but I can't help you. There are too many people, but we can't give enough compensation, and... We have no interest in the metal you say!”
While talking, Duomei raised her hand and said helplessly, ”well, let's say goodbye. I wish you good luck!” With that, Duomei gave everyone a helpless look, and then turned and walked towards the wharf.
Seeing how beautiful Duomei is gradually disappearing, everyone can't help but panic. Indeed... Up to now, the city is in ruins and doesn't belong to anyone. Even the remaining goods in the city have become ownerless. Therefore... They can be said to have broken their families and lost everything, and there is nothing to pay for Duomei and others!
Everyone knows that if Duomei doesn't help, everyone will starve to death. Today, everyone has not eaten for three or four days. If we continue, the consequences will be unimaginable!
Of course, they also want to go fishing, but this is kabulana Island, which produces metal. No one can fish, and even a fish net can't be found. There are no vegetables around the city. If there is time to grow vegetables, it's better to dig liangkuai ore. therefore... Although there is no food on the whole island, they want to feed and clothe more than 10000 people, That's a myth!
Looking at how beautiful it is, everyone seems to feel the approaching of death, lack of daily necessities and food. In this case, they are very close to death!
”Wait a minute!” At the moment when Duomei stepped into the dock square, the old man's voice suddenly sounded: ”this nvxia, I admit that everything in the city of Kabu is already ownerless, but there are still some things that have owners!”
Hearing the old man's words, Duomei frowned, turned slightly and looked at the old man helplessly. At the same time, the old man said deeply: ”the city is ownerless, but we are free, so I think if you are willing to help us and let us live, then... The 14700 people in our city will become your people, With our support, you will also become the master of cabrina! ”
She frowned slightly and said, ”why don't you understand?”? If I want this city, just occupy it directly? Why... ”
”No!” Without waiting for Duomei to finish, the old man flatly replied, ”things are not as simple as you think. If it's really so easy to occupy, how can the pirates give up here?”
Looking at Duomei's puzzled expression, the old man continued: ”there are two ways to occupy the city. One is to kill us, then go to the shopping mall and spend some money to apply for the construction of the city here. As for the amount spent, it depends on the location you choose. In this case, due to the production of precious metals, Therefore... The price of building a city here will not be lower than one trillion merchants! ”
”One! One trillion quotient! ” Hearing the old man's words, Duomei trembled. One trillion quotient is ten thousand trillion, which is almost impossible!
While thinking, the old man continued: ”as for another way, we aborigines support it. As long as we get the support of more than 80% of the aborigines, you can succeed the original city master and become the master here. This is also the only way for the island to become the city master!”
He frowned suspiciously. How beautiful and puzzled he said, ”this is wrong. There are loopholes in it. If the thieves kill you all, leave only ten people, and then force them to support it, isn't it?”
”Ha ha...” with a smile, the old man shook his head and said: ”no, this loophole does not exist. According to the provisions of the trade route, it must be supported by more than 10000 aborigines. If the number is lower than 10000, even 9999 people are not qualified to take over the throne of the city master!”
Speaking of this, the old man paused slightly, and then continued: ”basically, from the perspective of business road things, a city with less than 10000 people is no longer a city, so we will lose this right. As long as we have 10000 people, the city will still exist. If there are no buildings, we can build and goods, it is not a problem, The replacement of the city Lord is also a natural law, and the business road will not be controlled. ”
After hearing what the old man said, Duomei couldn't help thinking. What moved Duomei was the throne of the city master. Anyway, there's nothing to do recently. If you can help the young master get the city, it must be very helpful to the young master. After all... The metal here is the most expensive goods in the third level. After occupying here, as a businessman, The young master will certainly prosper!
Thinking, Duomei nodded slightly“ OK, let me finally ask, if you become the city Lord, do all the metals from the nearby mines belong to the city Lord? How are the benefits distributed? ”
Hearing how beautiful it was, the old man said categorically, ”of course it belongs to the city master. Once we become the city master, not only the city, including the buildings, residents and surrounding mines in the city, will belong to the city master. We are just the long-term workers under the city master.”
Clearly nodded, and Duomei said flatly, ”well, in that case, your task is next. We will deliver some food and daily necessities as soon as possible. As for you, bury the bodies in the city as soon as possible, then clean up the broken buildings, transport the goods in the buildings to the square and count!”
While talking, Duomei turns around and meets the sisters on the ship. Duomei briefly explains the current situation. Then... Under the command of Duomei, she divides the sisters into two waves, one wave of 18 people. The first wave stays on the island, responsible for leading and directing everyone to clean up the city and protecting them from outsiders, You know... If the number of aborigines is reduced to less than 10000, everything will be over.
As for the second wave, led by domei, they sailed into the depths of the sea. They must bring back a large number of daily necessities and food as soon as possible. Otherwise, these residents will starve to death.
After transporting a large amount of food from the ship, domei and others only loaded some water and set out from the wharf. Along the way, everyone had to rely on fishing to satisfy their hunger. In order to ensure the survival of the aborigines, domei didn't leave any food. The aborigines who saw this scene with their own eyes couldn't help crying. This treatment was the first time in their life.
