Chapter 198: Seven to Three Division! The Remaining Lion Clan!

Beep~

Beep~

Beep~

The video call that came with the game panel was very realistic; the closer the distance between the two parties, the better the signal, and there would be less noise before the call.

When talking with Zhong Qingshu in super close range previously, there were no sharp noises. Before the fourth beep sounded, Zhong Qingshu’s pretty face appeared on the video screen on the side of the game panel.

“Wow, you’re working in the field this early. So hardworking!”

Looking at the background behind Zhong Qingshu, Su Mo raised his brows, pretending to be surprised.

It was eight in the morning. On the rugged plains and snowy ground, it seemed that all people from the shelter were out, and everyone was working hard in the fields.

There were people clearing out the snow, and some were digging pits. Other than a few people who were in charge of keeping watch, it seemed like everyone else had a shovel in their hands, working with eyes full of enthusiasm and..

Hope!

“Of course. We plan to take advantage of the welfare disaster even more now to be able to live more comfortably in the future. Everyone is working hard for their future. We’ve already been working since five o’clock in the morning!”

Putting down the shovel, Zhong Qingshu raised her sleeves and wiped the sweat from her forehead while replying slowly.

Elegant and timeless.

Even though she was holding a shovel in the field, Zhong Qingshu’s unique aura could be seen; she stood out amidst the crowd.

However, looking at the poor efficiency of the hard-working and busy refugees behind her, Su Mo did not want to continue joking around and went straight to the subject at hand.

“Can you make decisions for your shelter? Would you like to cooperate? I have an excavator, which can help you save a lot of effort. I can also provide excellent-quality seeds and critical planting technology!”

“By the time the crops are ready for harvest, we will divide it proportionately. It will be a lot more than what you will obtain on your own.”

When it rains, it pours!

Su Mo’s words were like a bolt of thunder from the sky, hammering deeply into Zhong Qingshu’s head.

Yesterday, while Su Mo was asleep, the first round of land clearing had already commenced at their shelter; they were all preparing for a fruitful day of early planting work.

However, even if the idea was beautiful, reality was cruel.

The scene from their imagination did not appear in reality; the snowy ground was more difficult to clear than they thought; since commencing work, hundreds of people had failed to clean up the five mu of land.

The first reason was that most people had never undertaken such heavy tasks before, and their hands were covered in blisters after working for a while.

Secondly, it was because the accumulated layer of snow was too thick. Everyone had not been eating enough or wearing clothes that were warm enough every day. Their strength was weak and their physical strength reserves were empty. If Chen Shen had not brought some food back, someone would have fainted due to exhaustion on the ground yesterday.

Given such conditions, even the few old men in the shelter who had planted fields before as a livelihood were very helpless.

There were no cattle to plow the fields, and there were no tractors or other mechanical equipment to assist them. Faced with the harsh land and weather conditions, their manpower seemed powerless.

This was also one of the main reasons why most people starved to death in ancient times.

Since they could not finish the work in time, they could only get up early the next day to continue. Even Zhong Qingshu, who was on guard duty, handled fieldwork personally and joined the farming group.

At this time, suddenly hearing that Su Mo had an excavator, Zhong Qingshu’s shock could not be concealed!

“Excavator? No way, are you kidding me?”

Facts speak louder than words, so Su Mo walked over and stepped outside the garage gate, allowing the strong “King Kong” to be reflected in his video screen background. Suddenly..

As Zhong Qingshu connected the call to others, the west shelter exploded!

“F*ck, Brother Su has an excavator? Damn, how did this thing appear? How is this reasonable?”

“Could it be that Almighty Su has a plug-in to import resources? This is too abnormal! When will my modifier arrive?”

“Brother Su, please rent us an excavator. When harvest arrives, you can take eighty percent of the harvest and I’ll take twenty!”

“Collaborate! Collaborate! Brother Su, we’ll depend on you for everything!”

Except for the few people who had been through life and death situations with Su Mo in front of the kobold castle who dared to make fun of him, the other refugees also had excitement lingering in their eyes, but could only whisper and take secret glances at the camera from time to time.

This included the four prison guards, who were shocked to see Su Mo’s confident face on the video screen and the huge excavator behind him.

Seeing that his intended effect was achieved, Su Mo nodded calmly. Zhong Qingshu on the other side also understood Su Mo’s thoughts very well and turned off the shared connection.

“What say you? Can we collaborate? If you’re willing to, I will drive the excavator over later!”

historical

“My machine will be responsible for the work of excavating the cultivated land. I will pay for the fuel, as well as the seeds needed. I can provide the technology for the corresponding crops as well.”

“When harvest arrives, I will divide half of the crops among the previous brothers, and a seven to three ratio for the others.”

Su Mo talked calmly, but the effect of these words was the complete opposite.

Listening to Su Mo’s words, even if Zhong Qingshu recognized him as a strong individual, she was shocked by Su Mo’s generosity at this time.

With the price of seeds on the market right now and the benefits brought about by the excavator, even if Su Mo asked to divide to harvest with a nine to one ratio, the people in the shelter would already be cheering wildly.

However, when she heard Su Mo’s decision of dividing the harvest with a seven to three ratio, Zhong Qingshu did not even think about it and directly responded.

“Okay! I will send someone to pick you up, we’ll finalize the details of the cooperation today!”

After exchanging a few words and then watching the video call hang up, Su Mo’s heart was lifted. The joy in his heart was hard to contain, and he laughed.

A nine to one ratio division would certainly be fine.

Even if he wanted to be more generous, setting an eight to two ratio would be considered the greatest favor to these refugees.

However, the reason why Su Mo set a seven to three ratio was in consideration of sustainable development.

“All the refugees want to grow edible food. If I want them to grow cotton, they will be unhappy. Now, with the division of seven to three..”

“All of them would be willing to work for me!”

“This year, this wasteland, this doomsday world, is simply a paradise for capitalists. No.. I should say..”

“It’s a paradise for the strong!”

Without rules, fists would rule, guns and bullets were the truth, and one’s reputation was like an ID card.

Seeing the deep excitement in the eyes of all the refugees, Su Mo had more even confidence in the upcoming cooperation.

“Then, all I have to do now is to send the excavator over and see if anyone knows how to operate it. If not, I will find a smart person and teach them how to use it.”

After clarifying what was to be done at this stage, Su Mo returned to the shelter and began to prepare himself.

One should never intend to harm others, but should always remain on guard against the harm others might bring.

Putting on the combat uniform, Su Mo brought 1000 rounds of 7.62mm and 500 rounds of 5.56mm ammunition with the corresponding guns.

These weapons were not only the best tools for self-protection in the wasteland, but they were also the best way to deter other people with ulterior motives.

In terms of diesel fuel reserves, King Kong’s current fuel tank size was 400L. After filling up the fuel tank, Su Mo picked up the previous tank and took out 200L of diesel to carry with him as a power supplement.

In terms of tools, Su Mo selected more than a dozen defective shovels that had been made previously and put them in the storage space as rewards for the outstanding performers among the refugees.

Before he left the shelter, Su Mo picked two red tomatoes that had a slight hue of green and put them in the storage space.

Everything was ready, so Su Mo put on the dark silver armor and boots.

After checking all the weapons once again and making sure that there were no problems, Su Mo set off on together with Oreo on the long road to the wasteland once again.

With the special ability bonus, the 40km/h speed of King Kong was not slow, especially considering its large size; it even looked unusually fast.

Su Mo watched the Underground Shelter fade away in the distance in the rearview mirror.

Looking at the vast expanse of whiteness in front of him, Su Mo pulled off his mask. Oreo was lying comfortably in the bucket of the excavator, as both of them traveled along the familiar route.

After passing the Deep-sea Shelter and the saltpeter mining camp, they passed the ruined kobold castle. From a distance, Su Mo could see his old acquaintances again:

The lion clan!

Compared with the impressive lions from before, the current number of the lion clan members now was less than forty.

Su Mo rolled down the glass window and took out the M-1 rifle. He began to fire accurately, taking the lives of these remaining lion people.

Bang!

Bang bang!

The rhythmic gunshots continued to echo through the wasteland. After undergoing special training in the system’s training ground, Su Mo’s marksmanship had become even more terrifying.

Within 100 meters, even if he did not try to shoot accurately, he would never miss a shot.

Within ten seconds, more than a dozen bewildered lion people fell.

The Lioness observed Su Mo, who was still dealing out death from the driver’s seat.

She seemed to recognize Su Mo’s identity and was suddenly frightened and screamed. The other lion people were also frightened and they rapidly retreated.

As they retreated, the Lioness’s staff continuously waved in the air, summoning one small cyclone after another at the feet of the remaining lion people.

“Hahahaha, it’s karma. They must have seen the end of the kobolds. These lions are also scared to death.”

As speed was their race’s natural advantage, the lion clan easily escaped. It would be impossible to chase after them with King Kong.

It was different from the past, where the lion people would pull away to a safe distance to observe the enemy.

This time, the lion clan simply fled into the horizon. Their speed did not slow down. It was as if there was a scourge chasing after them!

“Fun, enjoyable!”

Watching all the lion people escape, Su Mo happily drove King Kong over to the place where he had slaughtered the other lion people. He picked up the four wooden treasure chests on the ground in satisfaction.

With the Underground Shelter at the center, within a two-hundred-kilometer radius, all the established foreign races had been cleaned up.

The rest were just poor clans like the lion people.

They could not farm, nor did they possess such a concept in the first place. Faced with the welfare disaster that humans could enjoy, the mythical races could only watch in frustration.

Naturally, the gap in power would become even larger as the disaster progressed.

“Oreo, let’s go! You can’t eat this kind of humanoid creature in the future. This is the rule of our Su family!” Su Mo yelled after seeing Oreo moving around the lion people’s corpses.

The scared Oreo quickly lowered her head, and cleverly returned to her bucket.

They got on the road again and, once they arrived at the plains, the road became smooth and flat.

After a while, the shelter entered Su Mo’s field of vision. Hundreds of people were gathered in front of the shelter!
