Chapter 1381 My cousin is here, you think I am a good person(2/2)
Money moves people's hearts. In the wasteland, there are occasional betrayals even among relatives. Who can blindly trust outsiders?
Fortunately, the vendors they deal with all have good reputations on the pier, and it seems that they have not caused any big trouble now.
"Is this common?" Sumo sat on the bow of the boat, slowly fanning himself with a wooden fan.
"It used to be very common, but it's gotten much better recently."
Ma Benchun cleverly stood next to him and said, "After settling down, everyone will start to abide by the rules, but it will be hard to tell if chaos breaks out next time."
The next time chaos occurs, it may be that the Starfield Alliance encounters a difficult enemy, or it may be a sudden disaster.
Or there may simply be internal factional conflicts, which may lead to an instant deterioration of the living environment.
"Everyone still cherishes a stable life. It's not that they can't survive, and no one will take risks."
"Where's Luo Laizi? Tell me about him."
Sitting on a boat, there are more things to talk about.
Knowing that Su Mo was generous, Ma Benchun simply told him everything he knew.
"I am a collector of medicinal materials. In fact, I have not known Luo Zizi for a long time. I met him when I went to the reed swamp to collect medicinal materials. I met his son who came over and bought a lot of medicinal materials. Only then did I know that there was a person like Luo Zizi.
."
"This man is indeed a miserable man, raising two children to survive in the wasteland. I felt soft-hearted, so I gave his son the channel for purchasing medicinal materials over the reed swamp. He just gave me a gift last week.
Get the goods here."
"As for him himself, he is quite talkative and has no evil intentions. His left leg must have been seriously injured and he can only walk with a cane. His son bought medicine to treat Luo Laizi's injury."
"Buying medicine? What is their source of income?" Sumo thought for a while and asked aloud.
Seeing a doctor and treating a disease are undoubtedly the two major difficulties in the wasteland.
Being able to afford medicinal materials proves that Luo You must be good at it, so he shouldn't be lame, right?
"Financial source?"
Ma Benchun pondered for a moment and hesitated a little: "I didn't pay much attention to it, but he must not be an honest person."
"I'm going to reward you, please tell me carefully."
Isn't it just to add money? This is not simple. Somo took out two candies from his bag and threw them over.
After Ma Benchun was stunned for a moment and took it, he immediately smiled and said without any hesitation on his face:
"You've asked the right person now. That guy Luo Laizi is very good at water transportation. His son is in charge of the boat and he is responsible for making nests. Every time he goes out, he gets a lot of harvest. That is to say, the water storage in the reed marsh is not very good.
, if it were ours, we would probably be able to produce as much as other people do in four or five days in one day, so if we don’t get rich, who will get rich?”
"I seem to have an impression of what you said. Was it their family that caused the little fish king last time?" Lao Zhang suddenly turned his head and added.
"Yeah, that's right, it's theirs. I heard they sold ten kilograms of white flour."
Is water transportation good?
Sumo secretly kept this in mind.
Being able to decipher the language of foreign races shows that Luo You has strong observation skills, which is actually a talent used in making nests.
It seems that none of the talents who can become famous in the future ruins are simple people.
Even with a lame leg and two children, he can still live a more nourishing life than ordinary survivors.
There are two people rowing alternately on the sampan, and the speed is very fast.
Before Ma Benzun could finish telling the interesting things he knew about the wasteland, the boat had already arrived near the reed marsh.
They tied the boat to the pier in the reeds, picked up the gifts they had brought, and headed to Luo Laizi's home under the leadership of Ma Benchun.
After walking for about ten minutes, Sumo saw his target. It was a mud house made of mud, which could barely provide shelter from the wind and rain.
But what is surprising is that at this point, Luo Zizi's house is still dark.
Suddenly, a black shadow suddenly flashed out from the grass next to the earthwork.
It's a girl.
With Soma's eyesight and reflexes, he spotted the black shadow immediately.
However, he did not make any move, but watched the black shadow pounce on Ma Benchun: "Uncle Ma, please save my father and my brother. They are blocked on the river and they can't come back now."
"Girl?"
Ma Benchun subconsciously wanted to hide, but after seeing the figure's face clearly, his movements slowed down.
"What are you talking about? Why were your father and your brother blocked again?" After saying that, he couldn't help but look at Somo.
What a coincidence.
If he encountered this kind of trouble normally, he would be eager to run away and not bother to listen.
But now, he still doesn't mind showing off.
"It's the families at the entrance of the village, the family named Su, the family named Zhang, the Liu family next door, and Lao Song from Shui Hua Cong." The girl anxiously clasped her fingers and rattled off seven or eight names, "They actually joined forces.
, accusing my father of stealing their nest, and now demanding huge compensation."
hiss.
Lao Zhang and Lao Gong suddenly took a breath of cold air, couldn't help but look at each other, and secretly clicked their tongues in their hearts.
There must be at least fifty kilometers between the reeds and the water flowers. The range of this enemy is really wide enough.
And it’s unusual to offend so many people. How can ordinary people have this ability?
"Ah this" Ma Benchun was also a little dumbfounded and didn't know what to do.
The three people's eyes turned to Su Mo at the same time, and Luo Jiao also turned her head, her eyes tightly locked on the middle-aged man with a sallow face.
"Luo Jiao?" Sumo called softly.
"Who are you?" The girl noticed something was wrong, a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she instinctively took half a step back.
However, Su Mo smiled and took two steps forward. He stretched out his hand and touched the girl's head tenderly. His tone was full of doting: "Jiao'er, I am your cousin. Why don't you even remember me?"
?”
"Cousin?" The girl was stunned. She tried hard to search in her memory, but couldn't find a face that matched Somo's.
But then she realized that now was not the time to worry about her identity, what was more important was the safety of her father and brother.
So he hurriedly said: "Cousin, please go and save my father and my brother. They are surrounded by those people on the water now. If I hadn't seen the opportunity and hid, I'm afraid..."
Before he finished speaking, several frivolous voices suddenly sounded next to him.
"It turns out this little girl hasn't run away yet, she's hiding."
"There are also some fat sheep."
"Don't talk nonsense, that's Lao Ma, I know him."
"Tell him to get out of here quickly. Even if I, the King of Heaven, come here today, I can't save Luo Gou."
I saw six young figures walking out from behind the earthen house. The young man at the head was smiling and carrying a short knife on his shoulder.
The others also held various weapons in their hands, which shone coldly under the reflection of the moonlight.
When Ma Benchun and the others heard this, their expressions suddenly changed. Even though Sumo was standing here, they still ran away.
There aren't that many rules in the wasteland now, and you're inherently weaker when you're on other people's territory.
No matter what the outcome is, they can't afford it.
"Old guy, why don't you leave? You want to die, don't you?"
I saw Somo standing motionless as if he was frightened.
The young man who spoke first said impatiently and couldn't help but wave the short knife in his hand.
It's been a long time since I've been provoked like this by someone in my memory. Even the lords of the land of millions of people have to treat him respectfully. Soma is both a bit novel and a bit funny.
