Chapter 61 Blocking
"Hurry up, we have to shovel away the ice near the water pipes before night falls."
Alan looked at the people working in front of him. A lot of ice has formed near the water pipes in the entire fortress. The temperature is a bit low today, and the water pipes may be frozen at night.
This is what Allen doesn't want to see. Now there is a short-term food crisis in the fortress. Because of the low temperature, some crops in the exposed farmland in the fortress have been frozen to death. Although Allen wants to build a constant temperature shed directly outdoors, the raw materials are completely insufficient.
Some confidants advised Allen not to sell guns anymore and use the resources to build sheds, but Allen did not agree. Guns are the only items they can exchange for brilliant coins. Now Allen has accumulated a lot of brilliant coins, which is almost 10,000.
Such a huge amount of wealth is very important for the future development of the fortress. Because the price of goods is very stable now, it is very cost-effective to hoard brilliant coins. When it is almost enough, use the brilliant coins to trade in a distant town and buy a lot of goods.
Although it is a bit difficult now, it is impossible for Allen to join this financial system. Only outside the system can he be free. Once this place is included in the financial system, those guys outside can unite to use the economy to disintegrate this fortress.
This is the reason why Allen is unwilling to join the financial system. Although many people have complaints now, Allen will make it clear to them every time.
However, if it goes on like this, the situation will be worse, but Allen does not want to use the money in his hand to buy food for the time being. After all, a large purchase will attract the attention of those guys.
Where Allen and his friends are, the area of cave planting is very small, and most of them are processing some weapons. Now the weapons made by Allen and his friends are enough to equip everyone in the entire fortress.
"Alan, hurry over, there are many people coming to the gate of the fortress."
Allen's expression tightened, then smiled and nodded, and then told people to bring weapons.
After a while, Allen came to the front of the fortress. Cars were parked in front of the fortress. Hundreds of people stood at the gate of the fortress with weapons in hand. Many mayors could be seen among them. Allen signaled those on the city wall who were holding weapons to put away their weapons.
Allen soon walked out of the fortress. As soon as he walked out, a man angrily accused him.
"How many weapons did you sell to our town, you bastard?"
Allen immediately acted innocent and raised his hands.
"Mr. Glick, what do you mean by making such groundless accusations?"
Allen watched several mayors approaching. They were wearing bright and beautiful clothes, including Jed and Su Kang.
"Alan, don't sell weapons to our town anymore. We are here today just to warn you. If you continue to ignore such warnings, we will take strong measures."
Allen laughed and shook his head.
"I didn't sell weapons to the people in your town. I hope you can understand this."
As soon as Allen finished speaking, Su Kang couldn't stand it anymore. He walked over and grabbed Allen's collar.
"You bastard, the guns you sold to our town have caused hundreds of deaths."
There were curses all around. Allen knew that the truth would come out sooner or later, but he had already dealt with everything. There was no evidence to prove that they sold weapons to people in the town.
"Alan, I know with my toes that it must be you who sold it to people in our town."
A leader said angrily. Jed walked over and pulled Su Kang over. The problem of weapons has seriously threatened the public security in the town. Many people bought weapons for safety, but they didn't know that holding weapons would make themselves unsafe, because everyone wants to hold weapons. Once a conflict occurs, everyone will take out weapons, which will only make the dispute never stop.
In the past, in human society, countries where gun control was not strict, too many people died from weapons in recent years. Now Jed and other leaders are discussing that they must strictly limit the possession of weapons except for managers, even their managers must control it.
But Allen obviously did it on purpose. Their people would take the Brilliant Coins to the nearby town to buy some things from time to time. They couldn't explain this because they didn't join the financial system, but they held Brilliant Coins.
"Then how do you explain that your people hold Brilliant Coins?"
Su Kang asked, and Allen said with a smile.
"Because our people will use some of the materials they produce to sell in the nearby town. Isn't it allowed?"
"Then please join the financial system."
Jade said, Allen refused again, and many leaders around him seemed particularly angry.
Then Jade sighed.
"In that case, we can't do anything, Allen."
Then the people around began to disperse, and many people began to take some things from the truck, which turned out to be some cement. Soon a large number of people began to move, and they began to build a wall.
Allen's face was solemn, and one of the leaders stood up and said.
"From today on, no one from your fortress is allowed to pass through my town. The roads outside the town will be directly blocked. Your people must get my approval if they want to pass through my town."
The mayors of some other places also said that Allen and the others were prohibited from passing through the town.
Allen looked at the people around him who started to move. They moved very quickly. In less than a few minutes, they had built a 3-meter-high wall. Their fortress was surrounded. Many of Allen's men behind him started to move. He seemed helpless at times.
"Either join the financial system or die on your own, Alan hopes you have thought clearly."
After Jed finished speaking, he left with the leaders. The problems caused by Allen had affected many towns. It was certain that Allen and the others had imported a large amount of weapons and ammunition into the town.
Shooting incidents of varying degrees have occurred in many towns recently, and these incidents will become more and more frequent, so Jed summoned the leaders. It is impossible to prevent Allen from selling guns into the town, and now No one is willing to start a war, so physical containment is the most effective method.
The effect should be immediate, as long as a blockade is set up and some people are arranged to guard the blockade day and night.
"Listen clearly Allen, the blockade will not be lifted until you join the financial system. If you don't want to serve the whole, then why should we serve you as an independent individual?"
Jade's words made Allen extremely angry, Su Kang said with a smile.
"You only want to win the bet, and never think about a win-win situation. In this case, I think it is better for us all to develop independently. It is better not to be too adventurous, Allen. The gods have already said that if anyone wants If you start a dispute, they will definitely destroy them.”
Looking at the people who dispersed and the people who built a separation wall more than 20 meters away from his fortress, Allen gritted his teeth. He could only lead his men behind him back to the observation deck of the fortress.
"We'd better join..."
"I've said it many times, we have to be patient at this stage."
Allen still wants to continue as always, because he knows very well that although such days are stable, stability will begin to become unstable as resources continue to be consumed.
"You just need to be patient for three to five years."
Allen stared coldly at the leaders who entered the town in the distance. He knew that no matter how angry he was at this moment, it was useless.
These guys gathered together and used this move to block their fortress. Allen did not expect this, but such a blockade was not tight. Even if the wall was established, such a blockade would be meaningless.
Now each town has begun to gradually form a family-based unit, so as they develop, their military force also needs to be developed.
Because of the checks and balances between towns, getting more weapons and ammunition must be discussed by the town mayors, so it is difficult for many towns to continue to get more weapons and ammunition.
Allen had already thought about this very clearly, so every town needed a large amount of weapons and ammunition. This market was very huge. Allen immediately ordered his subordinates to step up the production of weapons and ammunition, and the speed must not be slowed down.
4pm
A large number of town mayors gathered in the town in front of Allen Fortress. They were all talking about some of the recent events in the towns under their jurisdiction, and they basically pointed the finger at Allen.
Jade looked at the people discussing and said.
"We ourselves must be self-disciplined. If someone secretly purchases weapons and ammunition from Allen, I'm afraid such a blockade is meaningless."
Jed's words made many people nod. Now, the manufacturing of weapons and ammunition in the town is controlled by several large families. The weapons and ammunition will be distributed to each town, so that they can solve problems and disputes when they arise. It's time to have enough firepower to solve these problems.
So now the manufacturing speed of weapons and ammunition is very slow, Su Kang shouted next.
"I hope everyone will resolutely not trade with Allen and the others. If anyone breaks such a rule, don't blame me for being rude."
Jedla has captured Su Kang. Everything now has no reference significance for the future. Now the unit is a town, and towns are divided into big and small, strong and weak, good and bad, as well as the increase in population and resources. Problems such as being constantly consumed.
These problems will actually affect everything in the future. At present, we can only wait and see when the gods can come out of the mountains and lead the people on this land to build a city. Only in this way can we solve the problems that will arise after the decentralization of rights. Various questions.
The local mayor began to greet other mayors to prepare for dinner. Jade and Su Kang found a place with few people.
"I have discovered that some towns have made deals with Allen and the others."
Su Kang said and Jade nodded.
"I also found it here."
Both of them have been worried recently, because the population has indeed begun to grow slowly, and many people have given birth to children. Although many towns have continued to restrict the population, there is nothing they can do.
A new round of crisis may come within a few years. Although food reserves can keep up, the consumption of other resources is huge.
"How about we find a time to go to the gods and talk to them?"
Su Kang said, and Jade nodded after thinking for a moment.
"That's all we can do."
Humans have now begun to build in the mountains and forests on a large scale. Now they have discovered the base where the gods are located, which is less than 20 kilometers away from the nearest human activity point. They can first go to the town under construction in the mountain, and then go directly to the base to find the gods.
Soon the leaders gathered in a hall in the town and started to eat. During the meal, everyone discussed many issues, and the mayors of many towns were discussing transactions.
Although the current financial system is stable enough, there are certain drawbacks, that is, resources are not unlimited. Many towns that rely on producing resources have begun to gradually slow down the sale of resources.
Every town has something missing, and it is impossible to meet the needs of all towns. Recently, AI has begun to raise prices, which is something that many people are worried about. Some towns have already begun to cancel the original transactions.
A few minutes later, many people in the hall began to argue, and some even quarreled. No one could stop this situation. Today, everyone was gathered together to solve Allen’s problem and the problem of trade.
The contradiction is mainly between towns that are mainly based on resource output and towns that are mainly based on food output, while towns that are mainly based on industrial production will not encounter problems because both of the former require industrial products.
Although the gods left very complete technical records, many towns cannot cultivate technical talents without teachers.
Now most technical talents are concentrated in a few towns. They not only have to teach people in the town, but also have to improve the construction of the town, so it is impossible to go to some technologically backward towns.
"It's finally stabilized, but it's like this."
Su Kang couldn't help but sigh, and Jed on the side just watched silently.
"Take care of yourself, don't dream of being able to develop together."
Now Jed's town is the most technically skilled and developed town, with a lot of industrial products produced every day. Many people in the town will come to buy them, and they don't lack anything.
Jed has actually made a lot of restrictions in secret. He will not let technical personnel go to other towns to teach others and cultivate technical talents for other towns.
Because Jed knows very well that this thankless approach will not get you anything. Not only will the other party not thank you, but they will also use some tricks secretly.
Many mayors came to Jed and asked them to help make some equipment, but Jed shook his head.
"Sorry, we are short of manpower now, and some major construction is underway!"
