66. A businessman
Ren Xiaosu didn't believe in any ghosts, so after he found that there was nothing there, he looked at it more carefully. Wait, Ren Xiaosu understood what it was.
I saw water droplets seeping down from the top of the cave bit by bit, and with a ticking sound, it fell to the ground of the cave.
Perhaps because of the rain, the water penetrated through the rock layer on the top bit by bit. The man was panicked just now, but his nerves were too tense, so he treated the water droplet as other imaginary enemies, such as the monster's saliva...
But when Ren Xiaosu saw this thing, he said to others as if he had obtained a treasure: "You can just collect water here. The rock layer is like a natural filter, which can filter the water quality cleaner than well water. Of course, if you are not at ease, you can boil it and drink it."
Xu Xianchu asked seriously: "Really, can this water be drunk?"
"Well," Ren Xiaosu said: "This is probably one of the cleanest water sources in the wilderness. Sometimes even the water coming out of the spring may not be safer than this."
When Xu Xianchu heard Ren Xiaosu say this, he picked up his marching pot to collect water. Although the pine needles can replenish some water in the body, the amount is too small after all.
That thing can only ensure that everyone will not die of thirst.
Xu Xianchu didn't occupy the water source for too long. He put the marching pot mount on the bonfire and said to the others: "You guys go and catch it too."
Others, unlike Xu Xianchu, actually brought a marching pot to boil water. They could only keep it with their mouths, let alone boil it or not.
A group of people were pushing and shoving under the water source. You drink for a while and I drink for a while. Fortunately, the few people from the private army were all taking turns. Liu Bu was in trouble and no one would give in to him.
After a while, a soldier from a private army got angry and said, "It's just that drop by drop enough for whom? Ren Xiaosu still has two bottles of water in his pocket and has been hiding until now. He asked us to lick the stone wall, lick the pine needles, and drink the bottled water by ourselves. Who knows if there is any problem with this water?"
Several private troops had bad looks, but Ren Xiaosu and Yang Xiaojin had guns in their hands, so they didn't dare to say anything in person.
Ren Xiaosu looked at this scene and thought, it would be great if his palace could be filled with things. So tomorrow he would secretly put the bottled water in the palace and tell others that he accidentally lost the water, so that no one would have any idea of him.
Otherwise, seeing that these people are going crazy for water, there may be people who will take risks to plot against themselves.
At this time, the two bottles of water were put in his jacket pockets on both sides, one left and one right. He reached into his pocket and held the water bottle, trying to store the water bottle in the palace again.
As a result, the palace sounded immediately: "No storage permission was obtained."
Ren Xiaosu was very upset when she heard this voice. At least she would tell you how to obtain this authority? Why can black medicine be retracted and released freely? This aquarius bottle is not good?
What, Aquarius doesn't agree?!
Ren Xiaosu retreated aside, and Luo Xinyu glanced at Ren Xiaosu: "Why don't you drink?"
Ren Xiaosu looked at Luo Xinyu's questioning eyes, and it was obvious that the other party did not believe that he would be so generous...
Ren Xiaosu smiled and said, "I'll drink bottled water."
Luo Xinyu: "..."
At this time, Luo Xinyu discovered that Ren Xiaosu really has a talent that can be annoying at any time and anywhere.
But she didn't know that Ren Xiaosu actually gave up this water source out of careful consideration. First of all, everyone was very thirsty. This drop of water must not be enough. Xu Xianchu, as an extraordinary person, could only take over water for a long time, and no one dared to say anything, but Ren Xiaosu was not an extraordinary person.
He still has two bottles of water on his body, which has already made some people jealous. There is no need for him to be greedy for everything.
One of the rules of survival in the wilderness is not to be too greedy. Moreover, Ren Xiaosu now needs to let Xu Xianchu understand that if you want to survive in the wilderness, the person that is most indispensable in this team is Ren Xiaosu.
Since there is an extraordinary person like Xu Xianchu who can leverage his power, why not do it?
Also, the smell in the cave is too strong...
Luo Xinyu was originally very scared in this very tense atmosphere, so she chatted with Ren Xiaosu to relieve her fear. After all, it is better for someone to talk.
In fact, this method is very effective. When Ren Xiaosu said the four words "Getting a Son in Old Time", Luo Xinyu felt that she was really not afraid at all, and there was only ellipsis in her mind...
Ren Xiaosu said curiously: "Do you know where the cigarettes smoked by these troops come from? I think there is no place to grow such things near Barrier No. 113, right?"
"Don't you know?" Luo Xinyu said in confusion: "Wang Fugui said you are the person who is Luo Lan's care, how could you not know about this?"
"What does it have to do with Luo Lan?" Ren Xiaosu was stunned for a moment. Although he received Luo Lan's banner, the problem was that he and Boss Luo had no other interactions.
"Boss Luo is the spokesperson of the Qing family consortium at the No. 113 barrier," Luo Xinyu explained.
"What position is he in the barrier?" Ren Xiaosu said curiously. He heard Wang Fugui say about Boss Luo and Boss Luo every day, but in fact, Ren Xiaosu found that he seemed to know nothing about Boss Luo.
"Boss Luo has no position," Luo Xinyu looked at Ren Xiaosu in surprise: "Well, it seems you really don't know. He is just controlling factories such as metallurgy, water sources, and chemicals in the barrier No. 113. If you have to ask him what his identity is... then he is strictly considered a businessman."
"Can a businessman call the wind and rain in the barrier?" Ren Xiaosu thought for a while and said. He had thought that Boss Luo was the manager of this barrier.
"They no longer need to hold any positions themselves," Luo Xinyu said helplessly: "They are like the sky above the barrier manager. When there is nothing wrong, everyone is still peaceful, but when something happens, the decision maker in the barrier must be this businessman."
"Have an army beside him?" Ren Xiaosu asked after thinking.
Luo Xinyu glanced at him and said, "Yes, the army is many times stronger than these private troops. The combat brigades he stationed in the No. 113 barrier are beyond your imagination. They are definitely not the private troops you see now."
This is the meaning of garrisoning two troops in a barrier. Although there are nominal managers in the barrier, the power of this manager may have been in name only. If you don’t resist, you will let you enjoy wealth and glory in front of a puppet.
"But I can't understand one thing," Ren Xiaosu said curiously: "Why don't they directly control barriers to be this manager? Do they have to support the puppets and fart them?"
"Because there is more than just a Qing family consortium in this world," Luo Xinyu said.
Speaking of this, Ren Xiaosu understood that there were several consortiums in the more than 100 shelter barriers. They joined forces to control the barriers but restrained each other, and then seized resources in a strange cooperation model.
"So those tobaccos were provided by the Qing family consortium to Barrier No. 113?" Ren Xiaosu asked.
