Chapter 1266 The prototype of the Holy City(1/2)
The affairs in the northern border have been negotiated, and the next step is Oil City.
Since all the people in the northern border have retreated to Oil City, the power in Oil City has increased significantly, so naturally there is no need to worry about the people from Southern Paradise causing trouble.
Next, all the power of the Oil City will be unleashed, and efforts will be concentrated on building the trading market wall.
Regarding the rhetoric of reminding survivors and the origin of the source of natural disaster news, Li Yusi Lin repeatedly said to everyone:
"I think that by not revealing the existence of Qing Yuan or explaining the origin of the news, it can maintain a certain sense of mystery and make those survivors feel awe."
"In addition, the synchronized northern border also started publicity on May 20th. Promotional leaflets were printed and distributed in advance, and banners were posted on transport trucks that went out to search for building materials."
"What do you think?"
"I agree."
"I agree."
"Agree."
As the general strategic direction was determined, some specific implementation details were quickly and simultaneously finalized as we talked to each other.
Especially regarding preparations for preventing lightning in thunderstorms, lightning rods and lightning protection systems, everyone has maintained a unified consensus.
During thunderstorms and natural disasters, you must not only guard against lightning strikes.
There are also heavy downpours, which may cause other disasters, such as floods.
However, after the last flood disaster, it was verified that there were no problems with the Dazhangshu Base and Oil City.
Petroleum City is located in the south of Xinyang, with the Dabie Mountains to the southeast and its altitude is not low.
As for the Da Zhangshu base, there is no need to worry. It is located in a hilly area, and the base is built in a group of mountains.
In addition to lightning and floods, they also have to consider zombies and mutant zombies.
The Dazhangshu base has three floors of mobile blades. After two years of continuous iterative upgrades, it can now be partitioned and run fully automatically.
There is a simple version of the mobile gate knife in Oil City, but the wall of the trading market is still being installed.
The installation of mobile gate knives at the trading market is part of the second phase of the project.
When talking about this, Li Yu reminded:
"Second uncle, after the meeting, you should contact Ju Tianrui immediately and tell him these things."
"Remind him to deploy as soon as possible. Let him set up the oil array outside the trading market, as well as the mobile knife on the wall of the trading market."
"In addition... about the natural disaster, ask him not to tell anyone for the time being. There is still some time before the natural disaster. If it is revealed too early, it will easily cause panic and affect the layout preparations."
"We'll tell them after the arrangements are made. At this time, everyone will not be so panicked."
The second uncle nodded and said:
"Okay, I understand. I will contact Ju Tianrui later."
Everyone discussed some more details, including food rationing.
Although they can feed everyone now, it is obviously impossible for them to be given to the affiliated forces in the North and the people in the Southern Paradise for free.
So the second uncle suggested using a credit account and material exchange to realize the loss of food.
As long as they ate the distributed food, they signed an agreement that they must build the trading bazaar for two years after the natural disaster and perform other physical labor.
This is equivalent to a selling contract. When the time comes, you only need to give them very little food, and you only need to ensure that they do not starve to death, in order to exchange for a large amount of human resources.
Synchronization can also allow them to participate in resisting the zombie wave and reduce the pressure on the guards of Oil City.
It's like killing two birds with one stone.
"Then...Xiaoyu, if there are survivors who receive news of the coming natural disaster and take the initiative to take refuge in the trading market, will they be taken in?" The uncle asked.
Li Yu frowned.
this problem....
Quite sharp.
If you take them in, the number of people in the trading market will skyrocket and it will be overcrowded.
There is also an advantage, that is, as long as this natural disaster passes, this group of people may simply stay. Their previous publicity efforts will definitely not be as good.
If these people stay, a trading bazaar will immediately become available.
Let them open a store here, and they don't have to worry about preparing for leasing.
But there are pros and cons to not taking them in.
The advantage is that you don't have to worry about crowds causing chaos and causing various problems.
The downside...the positive image of the Oil City Trading Market may not be as effective in reaching people.
Li Yu was deep in thought before he could reply.
The third uncle then opened his mouth and said:
"I feel that before the natural disaster comes, even if we tell them about the natural disaster, after all, we have not told them the reason."
"I'm sure not everyone will believe it."
"In addition, before the natural disaster came, this group of people could believe it and enter the trading market. Thinking about it from another perspective, this group of people can still trust the Oil City."
"And isn't the purpose of building a trading bazaar to attract people to come in? I think it is a good thing for them to come in."
Third Uncle's perspective made Li Yu's eyes light up.
That's right.
As long as this natural disaster is successfully withstood, there will be no need to publicize the trading market.
This is the best publicity.
Safe, safe, still fucking safe.
This slogan lives up to its name and is thoroughly implemented.
By that time, the trading market may explode directly.
Thinking of this, Li Yu also said:
"Okay, I agree, then it's decided."
"etc."
Just as Li Yu finished speaking, his second uncle interrupted:
"There is a question, and it is the most fundamental question, how to ensure the safety of our own people?"
"They come in, what do they eat? It's impossible for us to raise them! Absolutely impossible."
The third uncle smiled and said:
"Didn't you just give us a plan..."
"After all, they are strange survivors. We don't treat them with credit or labor deductions like we treat Southern Paradise or the affiliated forces in the North."
"We don't give these people credit, so we let them exchange supplies directly. This is the most practical thing."
"Or, in order to ensure that the trading market does not fall, we can use a very small part of the food to help them resist the zombies when the trading market is most dangerous."
"In short, it's to set up a death squad!"
"Using food to protect the safety of our own people is actually not bad."
"To sum it up, we give them two options: 1. Exchange materials for food, 2. Use a narrow escape to exchange for food."
"Besides, I think this group of people shouldn't have no food at all. They have lived in the apocalypse for a long time. The weather has been okay in the past few months, so they have some food reserves."
The second uncle's frown relaxed slightly.
Continue to ask:
"Then how to ensure the safety of Ju Tianrui and others?"
The third uncle scratched his head and answered;
"Disarm and enter the city. This is the easiest way."
The second uncle sighed, so far, most of the problems have been solved.
He still didn't agree.
But the second uncle has one advantage, that is, no matter how strange or unrealistic the orders are, under the influence of Li Yu in recent years, he has become accustomed to executing them thoroughly.
Because Li Yu’s previous decisions have always verified Li Yu’s forward-looking attitude.
Regarding this point, the second uncle was convinced even if he refused.
And the most important thing is that the most important thing to avoid when doing things is to go against the rules. If you make a certain decision only for superficial reasons, then in the end, you will get nothing.
Second uncle naturally understands this truth.
"Okay, I'm fine."
The problems in the northern border and the oil city have basically been solved.
As for the Da Zhangshu Base, Li Yu had already made some arrangements.
To be continued...
