Doomsday: I was reverse-raped by the mature woman next door at the start of the game.
Chapter 498 Zhang Mingkun is trying to curry favor with a powerful figure!
The matchmaking event that everyone had been eagerly anticipating finally took place. Because Liu Qingxue had already designed and prepared all the procedures in advance, and Qin Zheng and Zhang Dazhuang had executed them perfectly, everything proceeded smoothly. In addition, with the army maintaining order, there was no chaos even though there were many survivors.
Of all the people seated at the head of the table, Jiang Qian was the most excited. She was naturally a gossip, and as she watched the groups of men and women choosing each other and performing various shows, she looked like she was watching a melon.
Lin Yuan wasn't actually interested in the matter itself, but as a core figure and spiritual leader of the base, he still had to attend.
After watching the matchmaking event for a while, Zhang Mingkun turned to Lin Yuan and said, "Mr. Lin, is it convenient to discuss some other matters now?"
"can."
Lin Yuan nodded. Since they were surrounded by core members, there was nothing to hide.
Zhang Mingkun paused for a moment and then said, "To be honest, besides the purpose of this visit, there's also... the construction process in our bridge capital is too slow, and we might need Mr. Lin's help."
"Oh?"
Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow. "Didn't the higher-ups send you any support?"
Zhang Mingkun shook his head with a wry smile and said, "The higher-ups will naturally provide some support, but it's too little. Whether it's skilled workers or various resources, they are all in very short supply."
"Sigh, now more and more survivor bases are being built on this land. Qiaodudu is only number 23. There are too many monks and not enough porridge. The higher-ups have done their best."
Zhang Mingkun looked somewhat anxious.
Lin Yuan fell into deep thought.
Seeing that Lin Yuan remained calm, Zhang Mingkun said, "Of course, we won't ask for your help for nothing, Mr. Lin. We will also give you some resources in return. Moreover, I think... we can become allies."
Lin Yuan glanced at Zhang Mingkun in surprise, then smiled and said, "As for resources, we don't lack them for the time being. Besides, as for allies, we're all on the same side anyway."
“Mr. Lin is just deceiving himself,” Zhang Mingkun said. “There are many factions at the top now, and the various survivor bases are either in opposition or in alliance with each other. The times are getting more and more chaotic, and these things are inevitable. I don’t actually have much ambition for power, but since I am in charge of Qiaodu, I have to be responsible for the survivors in the city and the soldiers under my command.”
Lin Yuan remained silent.
Zhang Mingkun sighed and said, "Mr. Lin, is it a difficult situation?"
"Do not."
Lin Yuan laughed and said, "The one who's really in a difficult position is you, Captain Zhang. You know I'm in a very awkward position right now. I'm practically a figurehead, but I'm actually self-sufficient and don't rely on anyone. They can't control me, so they'll start to see me as an enemy. It's only a matter of time."
“Captain Zhang! By doing this, you are undoubtedly taking sides. If you ally with me, the higher-ups might target you.”
"..."
Zhang Mingkun said, "Mr. Lin, you have foresight. Actually, I hadn't made this decision before coming here today, but after seeing tonight's gala and the construction of your base, I feel that forming an alliance with you, Mr. Lin, is my best choice."
"Oh?"
Lin Yuan smiled.
"Moreover, we've dealt with the matter in Qiaodu. To be honest, at first I thought you were just the leader of an evolved human faction, but now it's different. You can even do something like trampling cherry blossoms with a horse. I, Zhang Mingkun, think you're not some kind of villain, but a true hero."
The more Zhang Mingkun spoke, the more excited he became.
Lin Yuan said seriously, "Since you're mentally prepared, Captain Zhang, I can help with the construction of the bridge city. However, it will take a while because my technical workers and skilled construction workers are currently busy building production lines. How about that?"
"Production line?"
Zhang Mingkun exclaimed in surprise, "Mr. Lin, you've gone this far, even restarting the production line? I really don't understand. How can your small base, with only tens of thousands of people, manage to be so meticulous in every aspect? It's simply..."
Zhang Mingkun no longer knew how to describe his feelings at that moment.
Lin Yuan raised his glass and smiled, "Since we'll be allies from now on, what I have, Captain Zhang won't be lacking either."
"Mr. Lin, what are your demands?"
Zhang Mingkun also hurriedly picked up his cup.
"Not at the moment," Lin Yuan said.
Zhang Mingkun smiled, "Mr. Lin is very organized. It's not that you don't have demands, it's just that your demands are greater. However, it really makes me feel that I didn't misjudge you."
"Excellent."
Lin Yuan drank the wine in his cup in one gulp.
Just then, Yuan Tian, who was about to come over to offer a toast, suddenly had his communicator ring. After answering it, Yuan Tian's face immediately darkened. He hurriedly walked up to Zhang Mingkun and whispered a few words in his ear.
Zhang Mingkun's expression also collapsed, and he immediately stood up.
“Mr. Lin, something has happened in Qiaodu, and I have to rush back to deal with it. I will come to you later to discuss our alliance in detail.” Zhang Mingkun hurriedly put on his hat.
Lin Yuan also stood up and asked, "What's going on?"
"Qiaodu sent out more than a dozen teams to some of the surrounding fallen cities to transport supplies. These teams were all led by evolved humans and were equipped with advanced equipment, but almost all of them were overrun tonight and attacked by zombies." Zhang Mingkun said angrily, "And it feels like it was organized and premeditated. I have to find out what's going on."
"Alright. Thank you for your hard work." Lin Yuan didn't stop him.
Soon, Zhang Mingkun and Yuan Tian boarded a helicopter and sped away.
At this moment, Liu Yun turned around and asked, "Master, is Zhang Mingkun trustworthy?"
"I'm not sure, let's observe further. If he's only after Qiaodu and wants to ally with me, I wouldn't mind at all," Lin Yuan said. "I can develop my own power and indirectly gain more territory. Since I've already become a thorn in someone's side, let's make that thorn even more prominent, hehe."
“But our construction technology… largely depends on the master. If we participate in the construction of the bridge capital, will we be exposed?” Liu Yun asked with some concern.
"Let's talk about it later."
Lin Yuan switched his perspective.
Although Zhang Mingkun was generally to Lin Yuan's liking, it was natural to investigate such an important matter thoroughly. So when the two of them left, Lin Yuan released a few flies and mosquitoes, which are now on the helicopter heading to Qiaodu.
"By the way, Xiaoqian, don't just focus on watching other people's blind dates. Launch the drones too, and while you're at it, check on the current zombie situation in the country," Lin Yuan said.
"You old pervert, you're so annoying, can't you let a person have a moment's peace?"
Despite saying that, Jiang Qian still took out her laptop while complaining and started remotely controlling it.
