Ning Qingyun decided to go out of the city to pick up Huo Ye and others first, and then hand over the tasks issued by Minister Yan Cheng.
Anyway, he felt relieved knowing that she was safe.
In the Jindu Safety Zone, Ning Qingyun and the others had no place to get all-terrain vehicles, which are rare vehicles that can travel in the snow. However, they did get some sleds, snowboards, and a batch of firearms in Ning Qingyun's gem space. , gave some to each of Qi Sanbing and the others. After the equipment was properly equipped, the group of them left the safe zone.
As more and more people adapt to the climate and bravely step out of the safety zone, the relatively safe area cleared by the safety zone officials around the safety zone is gradually expanding. Ning Qingyun and the others have just walked out of the relatively safe zone, which is about ten kilometers away. , they met Huo Ye and others who were rushing towards the safe zone.
"Boss, the vehicle in front of you that can drive on the snow and run very fast is so cool. It must be the army performing tasks, right? It would be great if we could also get this kind of vehicle." Qi Sanding sighed a little. said.
Ning Qingyun said calmly, "That's the people we want to pick up, Huo Ye and his team."
"Ah..." Qi Sanbing was dumbfounded.
"Captain, why are you here?" Huo Ye saw Ning Qingyun and others from a distance. When they drove in, he stopped the car and shouted in surprise.
"Wow, boss, where did you get this kind of car? It's so handsome." He Wen screamed and ran over.
"It's just a car that attracts attention, but there are so many monster corpses? Did you kill them all? Boss, that's great, I'm making a fortune this time!" He Wen looked at Huo Ye and the others dragging piles of corpses behind their vehicle. The monster corpses on the hills shouted excitedly.
There was no joy on Ning Qingyun's face. He didn't hunt so many monsters before leaving yesterday afternoon. Now there are nearly twice as many monster corpses as yesterday. This can only mean that Huo Ye and the others have encountered another monster attack. I don't know the team. Are there any casualties among the members?
"How can I make a fortune? I'm going to lose a lot this time." Huo Ye shook his head with a wry smile.
"What's going on? There are no casualties, right?" Ning Qingyun saw that Huo Ye's expression was bitter but not hurt, so he guessed that there were no casualties.
"No, it's just that the weapons at the bottom of the box that you got from the army, Commander, have been used by us." Huo Ye said guiltily. Although there seemed to be a lot of these monster corpses, most of them were first- and second-level ones. Many of the corpses of the monsters are incomplete and not worth much. The weapons consumed are worth much more than the corpses of these monsters.
Before Ning Qingyun left yesterday afternoon, he left all the boxes of powerful bombs and firearms with Huo Ye, fearing that they would be attacked by monsters again.
Fortunately, those boxes of bombs were very powerful. Yesterday evening, Huo Ye and his party stayed in an abandoned village for repairs. At night, their temporary residence was surrounded by monsters. Fortunately, the house was still strong. They used the house as a cover to fight with the monsters. A fierce battle started. Huo Ye and the others were all above the Chongmai realm on average, and had quite a lot of combat experience. However, they had already fought hard during the day. They were tired and low on energy, and they could not withstand the monster. To attack, Huo Ye had no choice but to use those powerful weapons at the bottom of the box.
"The weapons are given to you for you to use. It doesn't matter if you use them. As long as everyone is fine, let's go! There is a safe zone not far ahead." The ice and snow is not the place to talk. It is better to return to the safe zone quickly to let people Peace of mind.
After reuniting smoothly, when Ning Qingyun and the others took the monster corpse back to the safe area, they attracted the attention of many city defenders. Except for the items in those big boxes, they did not need to pay the city gate tax because they had certificates issued by the military department. All other goods need to pay taxes when transported into the city.
"Boss, the city gate tax here is much lower than in the capital!" Qi Sanbing said to Huo Ye in a somewhat ostentatious manner. When they left the capital, the city gate tax in the capital was indeed much higher than here.
What Qi Sanbing and the others didn't know was that after winter came, the food supply in the safety zone was in short supply. In order to encourage everyone to go out of the city to make a living on their own, the city gate taxes in each safety zone had been reduced a lot.
"Hey, Wenwen Abing, you came out early. You don't know yet. We have officially applied to establish the Tianhe Mercenary Group in the capital. The boss will be the leader, and A Ming and I will be the deputy leaders. Remember to call us deputy leaders in the future. Captain, do you hear that? When we come back to the capital for this trip, we will be promoted to a five-star mercenary group. From now on, we will almost not have to pay taxes when entering and exiting the city gate, haha! When we return to the capital this time, the team will expand. Now, you all have the opportunity to lead the team and be the captain." Huo Ye couldn't help but smile from ear to ear when he thought of the reward of 10,000 reputation points.
After entering the city, Ning Qingyun and the others divided into two groups. Ning Qingyun took a group of people to the military compound to find Wen Qingming to hand over the task. Huo Ye Qi Sanbing took a group of people to the exchange to exchange points and buy some more. Living supplies.
Wen Qingming was a little surprised to see Ning Qingyun. He didn't expect that Ning Qi, who was trapped in the secret realm, would come out. When he saw the letter written by Minister Yancheng and the things he brought to him, Wen Qingming was surprised. Ning Qingyun's attitude immediately became much more enthusiastic. He thanked him repeatedly and invited him to have dinner. Ning Qingyun still had many things to arrange, so he politely declined Wen Qingming's invitation.
"Captain, this courtyard is too small for so many of us to live in. We have to find another place to live." Qi Sanbing and his group of a dozen people plus Huo Ye and his group of forty people couldn't even stand in the living room. He opened the door and arranged a few injured people to rest in the bedroom, while the others simply went to the yard to talk.
"Captain, we have selected several suitable yards. They are large enough and cheap. Which one do you think is suitable? We have also inquired about the Golden Eagle Garden, and only the last two houses are left. They are both small. If you want to rent, you can check out the house in advance." Qi Sanbing knew that Rong Xianxian lived there, and Ning Qingyun wanted to rent a house in Golden Eagle Garden, but the rent there was too expensive and there were no It's a big place. If you go to rent a house there, you can only rent one at most. And the small apartment there obviously can't accommodate so many of them. After all, they have to rent a bigger one. place.
After they sold the monster corpses and the monster materials that Huo Ye and the others had accumulated along the way, although they had a lot of points on hand, after all, they had more than fifty people who needed money for food, clothing, housing, and transportation. Not well off, and besides, they were new here, unfamiliar with the environment around the Jindu Safety Zone, and had no fixed way to make money for the time being. If so many people went out hunting, what kind of weapons, equipment, wound medicine and protective gear would not cost money?
