Chapter 23:
The convoy stopped at the back door, and Han Qinmin took Zhao Zhenhai to check the condition of the several trucks that had been parked in the basement. If there were no accidents, they would get new cargo vehicles.
The frowning Zhang Chenming took a few deep breaths to stabilize his mood before getting out of the car and walking towards the closed back door. He had the key. What he was worried about was that he didn\'t know what would come out after the door was opened...
The basement of the shopping mall has long been out of power, and it is all illuminated by the headlights on everyone\'s helmets. Under the pale and dazzling light, Zhang Chenming quickly flashed behind He Qianshan after hearing the sound of "click" the door lock opened. The vigilance is very strong.
The passage door opened, and the two zombies wandering in the dark passage immediately noticed the movement here, and moved over with a roar of "ho ho".
Song Xingcheng, who had already been prepared, shot at almost the same time as He Qianshan, killing a zombie one by one.
Zhang Chenming, who was so frightened to scream when he saw a zombie up close for the first time, felt stuck in his throat as soon as he raised his breath, and finally swallowed it silently, pretending nothing happened.
Apart from Zhang Chenming, the two newcomers to the team, Lu Ze and the Yang family, were also very nervous at first. The timely and skillful movements of their teammates gave them confidence, and their hearts hanging high in the air were a little relieved.
Han Qinmin, who was at the end, entered the passage and closed the back door directly, making the little tails who followed to the basement so angry that they were about to explode on the spot.
If you can\'t enter the supermarket from the freight area, you can only enter from the shopping mall in front, but you can guess with your toes, there must be a lot of zombies over there!
The little tails who wanted to stealthily take advantage of the chaos looked at each other, not knowing what to do, Zhao Hechuan, who had previously questioned the source of the gun in He Qianshan\'s hand in the He family hall, said angrily:
"Hmph, we\'re just waiting here, their truck is still outside, I don\'t believe they can come out and load it!"
When the others heard the words, they echoed one after another, and the owners of seven or eight cars returned to their own cars and waited anxiously.
In the distance, two zombies hidden in the darkness gradually approached, and they were shrunk in each other until they appeared within the range of the headlights.
Needless to say, people in the car noticed that there was a huge panic and screams one after another.
On the other side, He Qianshan and Song Xingcheng, who were leading the way, had followed Zhang Chenming\'s instructions through the spacious passage, clearing all the way to the warehouse gate.
They noticed that the door between the storage area and the sales area in front had been closed, and they could vaguely hear the sounds of zombies coming from the sales area on the other side of the door.
Due to the fact that the branch of Congzhong Supermarket is located on the basement level, and the power supply has been cut off, Zhang Chenming said that the branch did not prepare its own power generation equipment, and since he did not know where the power generation equipment was located in the shopping mall, He Qianshan did not plan to Gather the supplies in the sales area.
So he signaled Han Qinmin to check the strength of the door between the storage area and the sales area, and prepared to find suitable tools to strengthen the door later.
Zhang Chenming took out the key and tried to open the door of the supermarket warehouse.
It\'s just that the sound of the lock being opened has been heard, but the warehouse door has not been pushed open. It is obvious that the person hiding in the warehouse has blocked the door with a heavy object.
He Qianshan and Song Xingcheng, who had experienced this incident, were already mentally prepared and didn\'t find it strange, but Zhang Chenming was so angry that he yelled and ordered the supermarket employees hiding inside to open the warehouse door, and at the same time pushed the door hard.
Hearing Zhang Chenming\'s more and more angry reprimands, and even started kicking the door, the people in the warehouse who had been silent for half a minute still opened the door.
As soon as the warehouse door was opened, there was a faint smell. There were more than 20 employees and more than ten customers hiding in the warehouse. They all hid in the warehouse when the accident happened the day before, and they never left for such a long time. With so many people gathered in the warehouse that lost its ventilation system, the hygiene situation can be imagined.
Zhao Chenming, who was standing at the door, frowned tightly, subconsciously shut up and stopped reprimanding.
Various flashlights and other lighting equipment were also turned on in the warehouse. Naturally, they could clearly see the guns in the hands of everyone outside the door, and many people subconsciously retreated behind the piled goods next to them.
"I\'m Zhang Chenming. You, who can make the decision now, stand up and tell me about the situation."
Zhang Chenming frowned sadly and waved towards the warehouse.
It\'s a pity that there seems to be no management staff among the employees hiding in the warehouse. Even if someone recognized Zhang Chenming as the master of the owner, they were not prepared to respond to him, so after listening to his words, not only did no one step forward, but some people hid back, only showing a The head observes the situation.
During this process, He Qianshan had been observing the expressions of the people in the warehouse. The people in the warehouse were obviously divided into two groups.
There is a clear distinction between city employees and customers, and some people still have anger on their faces. It is likely that the two groups had conflicts before. Fortunately, there is no hostility, and the conflicts should not develop to the most intense level.
Feeling relieved, He Qianshan recruited temporary employees familiarly, and announced: "I need someone to help carry the supplies. The reward is that you can take some of the supplies and leave, and those who are willing can stand up."
After all, this is not an employee of He\'s, so He Qianshan didn\'t directly offer to send the gun or send someone home.
The remuneration proposed by He Qianshan for delivering materials is obviously unattractive. The people in the warehouse have been stuck here for more than a day, and they have already assumed that the materials in the entire warehouse are their own by default. There will be conflicts between them because of the distribution of materials. He Qianshan, an outsider who admits that he came from behind but wants to control the distribution of supplies.
Many people showed a look of disapproval on their faces. If it weren\'t for the fact that He Qianshan and the others were holding guns that they didn\'t know were true or false, some people might have made sarcastic remarks.
Seeing this, Zhang Chenming had an ugly expression, and said to the employees in an unhappy voice:
"The supermarket belongs to my family, and these goods also belong to my family. Don\'t take it for granted that these are yours, but if you help carry them, I will allow you to take some away."
Then he turned to those customers and said unceremoniously: "If you don\'t want to help, you can leave the warehouse of my supermarket now. Who allows you to enter here?"
"Who knows if what you said is true or not? If you say this thing belongs to your family, it is your family\'s? You call it to see if they will respond to you? I don\'t know where it came from, stupid!"
Somewhere in the warehouse came a sentence, which made Zhang Chenming angry.
Having grown up so big, except for the grievances his parents often gave him, he has never suffered any grievances outside. He immediately raised the gun He Qianshan gave him, opened the safety, and shot at the nearest huge packaging bag. .
Because He Qianshan didn\'t silence Zhang Chenming\'s gun, the sound of the gun was so loud that it shocked everyone in the warehouse. They stared wide-eyed and couldn\'t believe that the gun in this man\'s hand was real. of? !
I don\'t know if Zhang Chenming\'s words worked, or because he was threatened by the gun in his hand, one of the employees was the first to stand up and express his willingness to help.
There was nothing the customers could do. They had had conflicts with the staff before, and they were afraid that the staff and the newcomers would unite and drive them away, so they had to stand up one after another and reluctantly expressed their willingness to help.
He Qianshan kept observing the expressions of the crowd, and upon seeing this, he whispered to Zheng
Nian Hao was more cautious, and focused on a few people. Zheng Nianhao nodded when he heard this, and pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose. The eyes behind the lenses flashed a deep light.
He Qianshan trusted Zheng Nianhao\'s ability, and still left him as the commander of the material handling work. Just in case, Han Qinmin was left in charge of security, and Zhao Zhenhai, Lu Ze, Yang Jingwen, and Yang Jinglin moved the material together with the temporary labor .
As for Zhao Chenming, He Qianshan had consulted him for his opinion. Zhao Chenming was unwilling to leave the crowded and safe storage area. As a partner, he had the privilege to stay in the safest corner with nothing to do.
He Qianshan himself was going to take Song Xingcheng and Tian Qiufeng to the shopping mall above to see the situation.
He Qianshan was looking for a richer variety of supplies, while Song Xingcheng clearly realized that his biggest purpose of going out was to collect energy beads.
The mechanical and repetitive work of moving materials doesn\'t make much sense to him. He doesn\'t need too many materials. What he needs is a lot of energy for the city upgrade of the supply system.
Now that the city has just been built, people like He Erge who have loose money and can easily leak 40 energy points are just an example. Didn’t I see other wooden houses that have not been rented out yet? Without external blocks, the city can only be upgraded by collecting energy beads by Song Xingcheng himself.
And after yesterday\'s actual combat experience, Song Xingcheng, who had faced the zombies directly, felt that he was no longer the one he loved before, and now he was Song Niu Colu Xingcheng who would actively step forward to kill the zombies!
He Qianshan returned with the high-spirited Song Xingcheng and the serious and vigilant Tian Qiufeng, opened the closed back door, and boarded a truck.
Seeing that someone finally came out of the closed back door, the little tails hiding in their respective cars hurriedly opened a small gap in their own car windows, and shouted to He Qianshan for help:
"Mr. He! Mr. He! Please, help me get rid of that **** thing outside my car!"
"Yes, Mr. He! Please help me! If you don\'t help, you will die!"
He Qianshan, who had already boarded the truck, took a condescending glance. There were only two zombies in total. These people could be killed if they were hit by a car. He didn\'t want to say a word, and started the truck directly, ignoring the shock from behind, and drove out of the basement. He knocked over the railing blocking the road and drove the truck all the way to a side entrance of the shopping mall.
He Qianshan honked the horn, and the zombies scattered in the surrounding square heard the sound and surrounded them. Sitting in the car, they dealt with the zombies condescendingly. When Song Xingcheng turned his head, he saw a very horrifying scene.
