SRTT Chapter 80.7

Lu Xinhua lowered his eyes and asked, “How many people are left?”

“2,041.”

Ruan Ning raised her eyebrows. This was even less than she had imagined.

The man said again, “Base Commander, we suggest that we stop exchanging scrap metal for food.”

Lu Xinhua raised his eyelids and said, “Stop? If we stop, the base will be gone, and those people will run away.”

The man didn’t dare to say anything. He probably kept complaining in his heart, saying how they could run away when they were starving to death.

Lu Xinhua: “Don’t we still have a batch of cigarettes and alcohol in the warehouse? Find a way to sell this.”

No one spoke.

In this situation, who would be willing to buy this thing?

Lu Xinhua frowned: “Didn’t you hear what I said?”

The subordinates could only say: “Base Commander, it’s not that we don’t want to sell, but no one wants to buy. How many people are there in the entire Nanyuan City? Are we going to do business with New Hope Base?”

“Even if it’s them, there’s no food to exchange.”

The atmosphere in the tent was heavy.

Lu Ze looked at this and that, and suddenly, he said, “Dad, I told you, taking over the base is a difficult job. That’s why Zheng Kun ran away.”

Lu Xinhua glanced at his son with a sullen face, as if he was about to curse him.

Lu Ze shrank his neck and said, “I didn’t say anything wrong.”

Ruan Ning understood that Zheng Kun was not dead, but he ran away on his own initiative when he saw that the situation was not good.

Over there, Lu Xinhua turned to look at his subordinates: “How much stuff do I have in my private vault?”

The man said: “We still have 3,000 catties of compressed biscuits and 700 catties of sugar. Although they are not well preserved, they can be eaten.”

“There are still about 500 catties of salt.”

“In addition, there are 50 jars of honey and 3,000 cans of food.”

Ruan Ning raised an eyebrow when she heard this. He was indeed a wealthy man before the end of the world.

Then why did he starve his son so much that he became thin?

Was it because he wanted to starve him on purpose to show others?

After the man finished reporting, he asked cautiously, “Do you want to move the things in the private vault?”

Lu Xinhua’s eyebrows immediately raised: “Do you think I’m a fool? Use my own things to feed those things outside?”

Everyone was speechless.

Lu Xinhua said, “You can take the cigarettes and alcohol outside and exchange as much as you can. I don’t believe that you can’t get anything back.”

“Also…” Lu Xinhua thought for a moment.

“We need to keep a close eye on the New Hope Base as well. Report any situation immediately.”

There was indeed a big movement at New Hope Base, and so much food was brought back. Lu Xinhua should not have heard about it yet.

After all, she came here by car, so no one else could be faster than her.

Ruan Ning thought about it and left the tent.

Zheng Kun is a smart person, and it is not easy to find him in this vast world.

But Ruan Ning knew that if he wanted to board Noah’s Ark, he would have to hand over a large amount of supplies. Even if he didn’t want to board the ship, he would not be willing to give Chu Dingfeng to others.

Zheng Kun would definitely follow Lili’s clues to find the Bloody Base, but he was no longer the Base Commander of Tomorrow Base, and he did not have the strength of the army in the past.

Given his personality, he would most likely choose to look for opportunities near the Bloody Base.

After returning to the RV, Ruan Ning told the news she had gathered.

Ruan Cifeng: “So, what do we do next? Go to the Bloody Base?”

Zhou Sulan immediately said, “Yes, I suspect Zheng Kun is already waiting outside the base.”

Ruan Ning shook her head and said with a smile: “Before that, we have to solve a small problem.”
