Traveling through the doomsday, I become the largest supplier

Through the cracks in the Grand Canyon, you can see the scene of spring all year round. Inside the Grand Canyon, you can't imagine how inhospitable the world is outside. Although the wind and sand outside are not violent, the abundance of weathered soil and scarce xerophytes make this vast wasteland even more barren. The number of animals in the wasteland has plummeted due to the ravages of extraterrestrial viruses, and it is undoubtedly a blessing to be able to see the surviving animals here.

Looking up, the towering terrain like a knife, with a height of tens or hundreds of meters, makes people feel small. The originally huge convoy was insignificant in front of this Gobi-style cracked canyon. The blazing wasteland, which seems to be blocked here, is cool everywhere.

The convoy had only arrived five kilometers from the Grand Canyon settlement when three modified SUAs were waiting on the road early. The first was a Mitsubishi ASX with the roof sunroof removed and a heavy machine gun welded with an icy muzzle glinting death in the sunlight. A man wearing a vest and controlling a heavy machine gun was aimed at Zhou Feng's convoy. If it weren't for the striking red welcome sign on the windshield of the Mitsubishi ASX, Zhou Feng would have thought that the other party was blatantly robbing on the highway.

The convoy stopped, and Zhou Feng was greeted by a slightly blessed middle-aged man. It can be seen from his demeanor that he must have been a section-level leader in his early days. He walked up to the pickup truck and introduced: "Welcome friends from the wasteland settlement to our Grand Canyon settlement, I am Feng Chengming from the welcome department of the Grand Canyon Authority, I don't know who your person in charge is?".

Zhou Feng has not experienced this, it should be that this so-called welcome department has not been established for a long time. He replied, "I am the owner of the caravan and have met Minister Feng. "On someone else's turf, basic politeness is a must. And Feng Chengming was selected to welcome the guests, naturally he is not a simple character, don't put on small shoes for yourself at that time, it will be difficult for him to mix in this Grand Canyon settlement.

Feng Chengming squinted his eyes and smiled, shook his head and said, "I don't dare to be a minister, I'm just a small deputy minister." But looking at the look of enjoyment on his face, I am afraid that he still has the intention of fingering this minister's position. Since he wanted to make it convenient for the other party, Zhou Feng was of course respectful and sent the gifts that had been prepared a long time ago.

Under the scorching sun, Zhou Feng's forehead was already covered with beads of sweat, and he couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion when he looked at the desolate land eroded by the wind and sand. In this land, exposure to the wind and sun is commonplace, but people are still tenacious, just for the opportunity to make people rich. Feng Chengming, as a local tax official, looked quite proud. He effortlessly accepted the gift from Zhou Feng, which was 50 precious level 3 crystals and a delicate statue of a small golden tiger. After some careful inspection, Feng Chengming had a satisfied smile on his face, and then ordered his men to place the gifts in the trunk of his Mitsubishi ASX Jinxuan car.

There was a hint of closeness in his smile, as if to say, "Here, our standard tax rate is 25%, but it also depends on the type and value of the goods." As he spoke, he took out an invoice book from his pocket, quickly filled in some numbers on it, and then handed it to Zhou Feng. He patted Zhou Feng on the shoulder and continued: "This time you only brought some grain, so we only charge an 8% tax rate. Zhou Feng originally felt a little reluctant to give a precious gift, but after learning such a return, his mood suddenly brightened. He knew that the 17 per cent reduction in the tax rate would be a huge savings based on the value of his goods.

Therefore, Zhou Feng's attitude towards Feng Chengming became more sincere and enthusiastic, and he began to flatter him frequently. When they left, they were not escorted, but a young lad accompanied the convoy to the Grand Canyon Settlement. Obviously, the three armed SUVs were only used to give the visitors a dismount, and once the bribes were in place, the attitude immediately softened.

Soon after, the convoy finally arrived at the entrance to the Grand Canyon settlement. In contrast to the barren barren moorland settlements, the entrance here is filled with fields of corn, and these drought-resistant crops grow tenaciously even in sandy soil. Although the wind and sand have affected their growth, these crops are still enough to sustain the local people.

Upon entering the Grand Canyon, the first thing that catches your eye is a majestic reinforced concrete enclosure that spans the entire length of the entrance, is six kilometers long, is fifteen meters high, and is five meters thick. The perimeter walls were covered with shooting holes and machine-gun turrets, and the top was wide enough for soldiers to run freely. Zhou Feng estimated that there were at least two or three thousand soldiers here, and it would be difficult to break through this line of defense without three or four times the number of troops.

With the certificate issued by Feng Chengming, the convoy easily passed through the gate of the wall and entered the interior of the Grand Canyon settlement. It is a narrow strip of land where more than 100,000 humans live, mainly in the middle of the Grand Canyon. Passing through the wall, you will see a historic concrete avenue lined with a variety of crops, mainly corn and occasionally sorghum. Crops such as rice are mainly concentrated in the central part of the Grand Canyon.

The avenue is bustling with traffic and pedestrians. Some are busy working in the fields, others are corpse hunters, and they are navigating the avenues in such a way that people almost forget that this is a post-apocalyptic world.

As soon as Zhou Feng's convoy entered the Grand Canyon settlement, it attracted the attention of all forces. The big teams with eyeliner at the gates sent important people to approach, while the smaller teams were personally dispatched by the leaders, all hoping to gain a share of the benefits.

According to the established procedures, Zhou Feng must go to the Administration Bureau for filing and registration. This step is indispensable and ensures that all business activities are under official supervision and control. It was only after he had completed these formalities and the Authority had sent surveillance personnel to track his merchandise that he was allowed to sell his merchandise in the Grand Canyon settlement. Therefore, the purpose of those who came to contact him was very simple: they wanted to understand the types of goods that Zhou Feng brought to him, evaluate the commercial potential of them, and explore whether there was a possibility of cooperation.

However, Zhou Feng is not good at these business negotiations, and he feels a little at a loss for them. To his surprise, Ren Xinyun showed extraordinary talent in this regard. Not only did she completely replace Zhou Feng's role, but she also sat in a pickup truck and mingled with these local influencers. Her eloquence is so remarkable that it is difficult for those who want to get away with her. Instead, she easily gathered information from the other party. I have to say that Ren Xinyun's past experience as a tour guide seems to have wasted her talent.
