space teleportation
Chapter fifty-seven dealing with troubled times
Du Le was devastated when he left the city. What he saw and heard shocked him. Countless refugees died of starvation and disease on the roadside, not to mention the villages where smoke billowed.
Who brought all this? Du Le is not a great man, he is just a small citizen, a college student who has just graduated. His life experience is not rich. Faced with this situation, you can imagine the shock to your heart along the way.
Know.
Regardless of men, women, old or young, there are all living people in sight. Their hunger, their pain, there is no hope, so they want to explode. The laissez-faire and indifference of the upper class of Chu State caused the refugees to become a mob. They destroyed and robbed everywhere.
All the food that can be snatched. The first people to suffer are the people around Jinyang City.
It seems that the emperor and bureaucrats of Chu State no longer intend to pay attention to the hungry refugees, and even allow them to become mobs. They just want to defend the city. Du Le couldn't help but think that the situation was getting more and more serious.
If it continues to develop, who can imagine where it will develop?
Du Le was a little uneasy. The reason for this situation was not only the lack of food in Chu State itself and the impact of the defeat, but also his contribution to the situation. He was the first to let people know about the food shortage.
However, Du Le has no regrets, because all these results were not caused by him. It can only be said that he had a role in stimulating the situation, but he did not continue to maintain it because his property was threatened.
The manor outside the city had long been occupied by refugees, and all the food and valuables had been robbed. Du Le had no hope anymore. Yan Fu bribed the school captain who was guarding the city, and asked Du Le and a man from the manor to
A strong man climbed down from the tower in a hanging basket along the wall.
I escaped several mob groups and used food to clear the way when I encountered someone who was trying to rob me. Fortunately, there was space to store food, plus the delicious Xuan instant noodles in the space. I always took some food with me and carried it with me, and then pretended every time.
All the food was robbed. Generally, the robbers are refugees. If you have food, your life will not be harmed.
Du Le and the two had no accidents along the way, and it took them a full day to reach the villa.
On the outskirts of the villa, Du Le saw a small wooden watchtower. A strong man was watching on the tower. Under the tower, there was a long fence. A dozen strong men holding guns and sticks guarded the passage up the mountain.
.
Outside the fence, a dozen people with tattered clothes and homeless looks were lining up, telling something to the strong man guarding the passage.
The strong men following Du Le quickly stepped forward and identified themselves. Du Le waited for a while, and then two strong men led them up the mountain.
At the entrance of the villa, the housekeeper came out to greet him, and Du Le asked about the situation down the mountain.
"Sir, there are some refugees down the mountain. Yesterday, news was released that the villa was going to dig for miners and they would have food and drink, so many refugees came to us to find a job," the housekeeper said.
"You know everything about Jinyang City, right? Be careful and don't let bandits sneak into the villa mine." Du Le hesitated for a moment and said. Although Du Le sympathized with the refugees and planned to help them, he was
The destructive power of refugees when they become a mob cannot be underestimated.
Jinyang City's business has basically stopped, with only one restaurant still operating. The villa is Du Le's largest industry, and there is no room for failure.
"Don't worry, sir. Eight hundred strong men will guard the courtyard and take turns guarding it. Ordinary mobs can't defeat it," the steward replied.
"Soon, a batch of weapons will come over, and I will deliver them to the villa then." Du Le nodded, thought for a while, and continued: "The nursing home can continue to recruit and intensify training. They must strengthen their skills. Only
The stronger we are, the safer we will be.
In addition, we can continue to recruit refugees. I see that there is a lot of wasteland around the villa. We can arrange for them to open up wasteland and cultivate the land. If there are more people, they can go mining. If there are more people, we can continue to recruit them as the guardians of the villa. All the people in the villa will not be able to live a free life. I
Food will be shipped here one after another."
The old housekeeper's eyes flashed. He had lived for most of his life and could become an old man no matter what. Du Le's series of actions reminded him of the importance of supporting soldiers and self-respect.
If he was a person from another world, the old housekeeper's idea was not wrong. But he could not know that Du Le did not belong to this world, and he did not want to become the overlord of one party.
In fact, Du Le's idea is very simple, to expand his strength and earn more gold coins. He has regarded the villa as his back garden, and the destruction he saw along the way cannot befall the villa. What Du Le has done is just
It's just self-protection.
Without the villa, there would be no continuous supply of five-leaf clover, and the delicious Xuan instant noodles would not have its own unique taste. Perhaps, it is not that serious. As long as Du Le has a teleporter, he can purchase five-leaf clover from elsewhere at any time. But
As a businessman, a stable supply of raw materials is very important to maintain the healthy development of an enterprise. It is precisely with the conveyor that Du Le has a
There is no way out, so he doesn't care about the attitude of the powerful people in Chu State. You can't maintain my normal business activities, and you even want to rob my industry, then I will recruit troops and protect myself. As long as there is more than 100%
I don't care about anything about the profit. What's more, the profit is more than 200%, which is enough for Du Le to trample on the laws of this world.
After Du Le set the coordinates in the villa, he teleported back to Fuyong's warehouse and picked up a batch of grain and ordinary instant noodles. Since the factory there specializes in producing delicious Xuan instant noodles and only has one production line to produce noodles, it may not be able to cope with the consumption in the villa.
Du Le also placed an order with some small instant noodle factories around Fuyong. He bought noodles alone, which were of average quality. They cost 20 cents each. He purchased 100,000 yuan first, which is about 200,000 noodles.
After the teleporter was upgraded, the buffering time was greatly reduced, and Du Le did not waste too much time before teleporting back to the villa again.
The housekeeper watched his master come and go, bringing back batches of food, and his confidence increased greatly. He quickly ordered his subordinates to spread the word that the villa was recruiting refugees, giving them jobs, paying them with food, and also spreading rumors about recruiting nursing homes.
"Master, this batch of food is enough to feed the villa for half a month now, but if we continue to recruit refugees, we will need more food." Du Le just lay down and enjoyed the massage service from the maid, and the butler said from the side.
"What?!" Du Le realized that he seemed to have overlooked a very important thing, "Steward, how many people are there in Chu State, and how many refugees do you estimate will come to the Villa?"
"There are more than 500,000 households in Chu State, and the number of refugees suffering is no less than 1 million. Just outside Jinyang City, there are no less than 200,000 refugees. An adult needs four kilograms of rice and various kinds of food a day.
Growing miscellaneous grains will be reduced by half for children and the elderly. If 100,000 adults come to work in the villa, we will have to prepare at least 400,000 kilograms of grain every day, and 12 million kilograms of grain will be stored in a month. If calculated in terms of flour bread, it will consume 20 kilograms a day.
Ten thousand noodles." The steward counted them one by one.
"What!" Du Le was shocked. He didn't expect that food consumption would be so large. Now ordinary rice costs two yuan per catty. If you wholesale it, it may drop a few cents. Even if it is one yuan per catty, it will cost 12 million.
Yuan a month.
Du Le asked the maid to leave, sat up, and thought to himself, during this period of time, he transported food and instant noodles to sell in restaurants and delicious Xuan noodle restaurants. He also stored a lot of gold coins in the space, more than 200,000 gold coins, all of which were converted into Chinese dollars.
, should be able to buy 12 million kilograms of rice. However, the account cannot be calculated like this. The refugees are just refugees, and they do not need to buy very good rice, ordinary grains should be fine. But even so, the cost of millions is still indispensable.
This couldn't help but make Du Le feel a little heartbroken. How did he come up with this fund?
After thinking about it, Du Le focused on the items in the space. He remembered that he once bought a top-grade emerald in the Jubao Pavilion, and he had an energy stone left, which could be used to estimate the value.
If possible, sell it and raise some money.
However, Du Le thought of another problem. If the amount of grain purchased in Fuyong City was too large, it would easily attract the attention of relevant departments, and he could not explain the whereabouts of a large amount of grain, which might arouse suspicion.
Therefore, Du Le plans to purchase this batch of grain, and it is best to purchase it from some major grain-producing countries.
