On the third day after setting off from the Longquan Mountain Base, Lang Hua bid farewell to Yang Zhenghua who was halfway north, and took the remaining people into the Qiantang Base, where the Jiangdong Command Headquarters is located, that afternoon.
Qiantang is an important gateway from Zhejiang Province to the east and into the sea. Before the disaster, the permanent population here was close to one million. With a prosperous economy and convenient transportation, it was truly an important town in the east of the Yangtze River.
In the first half of this year, the Kong family mobilized nearly 100,000 evolvers to clean up the main urban area of Qiantang.
After many sweeps by the evolvers, like digging three feet into the ground, there is now no trace of a single necromorph.
Lang Hua and others walked on the street, stepping on clean and tidy pavement bricks, and colorful holly shrubs could be seen on the side of the road.
There are evolutionary hunters coming and going on the streets, vendors selling various daily necessities and food quilts, and even an official auction house that specializes in exchanging crystal cores and various rare materials.
It can be said that there is everything here, except that there are no black corpses, corpse beasts, rotten corpses and dirty blood stains.
Walking in this city, not only Lang Hua, but everyone traveling with him felt like he was back before the disaster.
To be able to run a doomsday city so perfectly, the Kong family is worthy of being a super power that dominates the country.
It is said that the Kong family's method of mobilizing everyone is simple and crude but very effective.
At a certain time, they stopped purchasing any corpse crystal cores obtained outside the city. Instead, they purchased the crystal cores obtained from hunting black corpses and corpse beasts in the city at a high price.
Ordinary evolved people have to eat and live, so they have no choice but to extend their butcher's knife to the large and small corpses remaining in Qiantang City.
At this time, the Kong family announced that as long as someone is willing to form a team into the city to hunt the zombies, they will rent weapons and sell ammunition at the best price.
The passion of ordinary people to participate in the clean-up of the city was quickly ignited. In just a few days, thousands of fully armed evolutionists poured into the city, swooping on the black corpses one after another like locusts.
During this period, I heard that some people dared to cheat and use tricks to fool the people in charge.
At this time, the supervisors left in the city by the Kong family will take action and kill these guys mercilessly.
In this world, fists are the greatest truth.
Coincidentally, the Kong family is the biggest fist in Jiangdong. Of course, the additional rewards given by the Kong family to the team of evolvers who are willing to go into the city to clean up the black corpses are quite generous.
"The Rebirth of Financial Giants"
If you can clear out a building, you can get your own home in the city center.
If you have the ability to clean up a community, then put an entire building in the community in your name.
What? You ask about the remaining houses and supplies? Don’t you know that the Kong Base is a semi-official organization named after the Global Post-Disaster Autonomous Management Association?
If these ownerless real estate and resources are not distributed uniformly by the government, are they going to give you, a humble citizen like you, all the benefits?
Save your money, there are already a lot of rewards you can get.
No matter how many and good things are, you still have to live to enjoy them...
High incentives lead to high returns that exceed expectations.
In less than three months, the entire Qiantang City was completely wiped out by one hundred thousand evolvers.
Counting the previous Lin'an, Gusu, Yuhang and Linhai, Qiantang is already the fifth city that the Kong family has recovered this year.
It can be expected that if there had not been a riot among the zombies in Jiangnan in the fall, their development in the Jiangdong region would have been even more rapid!
In the headquarters building in the center of the base, Lang Hua met Kong Lianyi, then the leader of the Kong family, and General Yang Jianye, whom he had been looking forward to for a long time.
Kong Lianyi was wearing a Confucian shirt as usual, and the mahogany crutch in his hand did not look conspicuous at all.
But Lang Hua knew that it was a highly disguised cane sword.
The scabbard of this sword is shaped like a cane, with a sharp blade hidden in it. It is commonly known as the "two-person sword" and is a common weapon of Confucianism.
In his previous life, there was a bold little thief who wanted to assassinate Kong Lianyi, but he unexpectedly used this knife to seize the opportunity to kill him.
Although Kong Lianyi looks elegant and easy-going now, his warm smile may even remind people of one or two deceased elders.
But who can ascend to the position of the patriarch of a large family, who is simple?
"Little friend Lang Hua, you are a little late today." Seeing Lang Hua enter the door, Kong Lianyi pretended to blame him.
Lang Hua bowed deeply, put his hands in front of him, and replied respectfully: "The road was not peaceful, so I was delayed for a while. I hope Mr. Kong can forgive me."
"What crime is there, what crime is there. Little friend, you are serious."
Lang Hua's humility made Kong Lianyi even more satisfied.
He smiled and touched his beard, warmly greeted Lang Hua to take a seat, and introduced several people around him to him.
They are mainly the talkers of other major tribal forces in the Jiangdong area except the Kong family.
Lang Hua noticed that there was an ordinary old man sitting on the main seat.
Kong Lianyi did not introduce much about this person, except that he was an old friend of his.
But Lang Hua recognized him at a glance from the crowd.
Yang Jianye, Yang Zhenghua's grandfather, was the real controller of the Yang family and even the Southern Qi garrison.
He is also a veteran who has retired for more than ten years.
This was the first time Lang Hua saw Yang Jianye since his rebirth.
Yang Jianye wore a winter uniform today. The upper body was a brown-green double-breasted woolen coat with a straight collar and exquisite materials. It seemed that all armbands, chest badges and metal logos had been removed on purpose.
The trousers were neatly attached to the sides of his legs, and the leather boots on his feet had some slush that had not yet melted.
A brown velvet hat was placed casually on the tea table next to him. It looked like he had just come back from the snowstorm outside the city.
The old general has gray hair, deep eyes, and thin cheeks. The sides of his cheeks and forehead are already covered with wrinkles.
He has a thin figure, so the large windbreaker doesn't fit him well.
If someone who didn't know the details was here, they would probably think that this was an ordinary old man who came from nowhere.
Among the dozen or so people present, including some leaders of medium-sized forces, they still didn’t know what was going on.
That is to say, the three or two powerful lords and Lang Hua, who had been reborn, knew the details of the old man opposite.
Yang Jianye, one of the ten remaining senior generals in the federal government era.
He was born in the new era of confrontation in the last century, where young men joined the army and middle-aged men became generals. It has successively experienced the period of multilateralism, the federal referendum, the suppression of rebellions in remote areas, and the recent apocalypse.
Now in his seventies, General Yang can be called a living fossil of Blue Star's nearly century-old history.
If there is anyone in the entire East Y region who is older and more important than the current CEO of the Self-Government Association, Chu Feng.
That person must be Yang Jianye.
