Apocalypse: Resources Consumed by Women Returned Ten Thousandfold - Chapter 155: Playing Tricks on Others
Chapter 155: Chapter 155: Playing Tricks on Others
Lin Lang finally understood!
Zhang Dabin, who’s always welcoming to outsiders!
Why did he specifically want to keep these people out—
Turns out this group just came to take advantage!
You have to know!
Even those owning property in Xingfu District!
Work themselves to death every single day!
Only get just enough supplies to survive!
And these people from the Low-Cost Housing District!
Come running over with empty pockets!
Batting their eyes!
Mouth wide open!
Asking for a hundred boxes of pure water, a hundred boxes of instant noodles, meat, fruit, and other stuff…
They even want these packed in boxes?!
Boxes, my foot!
Lin Lang found it ridiculously funny!
He reckoned!
It was simply because they mentioned his name.
That Zhang Dabin gave him some face!
And didn’t smack them to death!
…
“Benefactor, it’s only this much, is that okay with you?”
They bowed and scraped to Lin Lang.
But their eyes and tone were aggressive:
“Actually, before coming, we checked out the situation at Xingfu District!”
“Your place truly doesn’t lack supplies!”
“What we’re asking for is just a drop in the ocean for you! Don’t you agree?”
Lin Lang lowered his eyes slightly and calmly asked:
“You brought so few people? Shouldn’t you be unable to carry all that stuff?”
A 500ml bottle of pure water weighs about 1 pound!
bottles in a box, that’s 24 pounds!
A hundred boxes, that’s a total of 2400 pounds!
Not to mention a hundred boxes of instant noodles, and meat, fruit, and all such!
Several thousand pounds of goods.
With just these few people, they couldn’t carry it even if they worked themselves to death!
But upon hearing this!
Their eyes lit up, and they babbled incoherently:
“Oh my gosh! You agreed, eh! No problem! We’ll call for backup right away!”
With that!
One of them ran off hurriedly to make a phone call:
“Folks, call in more people! He agreed to give!”
“Just that amount! Haha!”
“Can you believe it! He didn’t even haggle! Hahaha!”
“Yes indeed! Damn! If we’d known, we would’ve asked for more! But it’s fine, we’ll come back next time! It’s not far…”
…
The guy was so thrilled, he even forgot to lower his voice some more.
Although.
It made no difference.
With Lin Lang’s senses nowadays, even without using his Divine Sense, no breeze or rustle within a hundred miles could escape his ears.
…
And those who stayed beside Lin Lang began to test the waters with a fawning expression:
“Benefactor!”
“Actually, the numbers we mentioned just now were extremely low standards!”
“Yeah!”
“You see! Just drinking water and eating instant noodles isn’t enough! Meat and fruit are basic foods too! Look, you’ve got seafood here, could you give us some to improve our meals?”
“Also!”
“You know, back at our place, there are many smokers! So, could you also give us some cigarettes?”
“Benefactor! If you’re giving cigarettes, why not add some alcohol! We can enjoy a drink or two in our spare time!”
“Yeah! Haha!”
…
They chimed together.
Like performing a group skit.
Completely oblivious to the deepening darkness in Lin Lang’s eyes—
This bunch!
Kept calling him a benefactor.
But actually treated him like a sucker!
They weren’t here just to exploit.
They acted like they were making wishes!
…
Lin Lang stopped speaking.
Letting them revel in the daydreams they wove for themselves!
…
Before long!
From afar!
A whole crowd of people came rushing over!
The movers from the Low-Cost Housing District had arrived!
They even pushed a large cart—
Just a wooden board on wheels.
“Where are the supplies?”
At this moment.
A shabby man came over.
But didn’t even greet Lin Lang.
Prompted:
“Hurry up and load the cart, my card game hasn’t finished yet!”
Those few people then said to Lin Lang:
“Benefactor, it’s getting late, let’s quickly load the supplies onto the cart and leave, so we won’t disturb your rest!”
Lin Lang raised his gaze unhurriedly.
Glanced at the shabby man.
And then said:
“You, come to greet your great benefactor, but didn’t even say hello?”
Upon hearing this!
Everyone’s expression changed!
The man hesitated!
Didn’t expect Lin Lang to suddenly find trouble with him!
He instinctively looked around.
But saw everyone looking grim, winking at him!
He immediately understood!
Hurriedly bowed to Lin Lang:
“Benefactor! Benefactor! I was so busy just now that I forgot to greet you! May you live long and prosper!”
“Hmm.”
Lin Lang responded indifferently.
Seeing this!
They thought the matter was over.
Immediately called out:
“Benefactor…”
But Lin Lang interrupted their words coldly:
“It is indeed late today, so as not to delay your card game, let’s talk about it tomorrow!”
After saying this.
Under the messy yet insightful gaze of those people.
He stepped over the gate.
And walked into the district.
…
“Huh?!”
“Isn’t this wrong?”
They were stunned for a moment until they reacted, quickly following along!
“Benefactor! Benefactor! We can wait!”
But Lin Lang had already walked far.
One person was anxious, ready to climb over the gate to catch up!
But at this moment.
Zhang Dabin’s figure, like a ghost, suddenly appeared at the entrance.
Persistently said:
“Xingfu District, intruders will die.”
…
No way.
That person could only return embarrassed.
Then.
Everyone’s fiery gaze fell on that shabby man—
Dammit!
The cooked duck could actually fly away?!
So many resources!
Enough for their district to squander for a long time!
But now!
They were lost by a word from this bastard!
Beating him to death wouldn’t be wrong!
Noticing the unfriendly gazes!
The shabby man felt like crying:
“It wasn’t intentional! I really forgot! My card game was really urgent, I even bet my wife…”
“Forget your bullshit!”
“Damn you!”
“Beat you, you bastard!”
A large group rushed up!
They harshly beat the shabby man!
Until he was head broken, bleeding, barely alive!
“Ptooey!”
They spat on him!
“There’s still a chance tomorrow, otherwise we would beat you to death!”
“You’ll kneel here all night!”
“Shout ’Benefactor, I was wrong’ all night, and when the benefactor’s anger dissipates and is willing to give us the supplies, then you can get up!”
“All night?” The shabby man trembled, “There are Fierce Beasts at night, aren’t you letting me die?”
The people said:
“You useless! If you die, you die in vain!”
“If you dare to go back today, we’ll beat you to death!”
“Useless in success, ample in failure!”
They grumbled and returned to the Low-Cost Housing District.
As they walked away.
They couldn’t help but complain about Lin Lang:
“That person really thinks he’s some great benefactor?”
“Exactly! Just forgot to greet him, and he privately detained our supplies!”
“Are our lives really not worth more than his face?!”
“Truly, society is going downhill!”
“Forget it, forget it! We’ll come back tomorrow! Hopefully, by then, the master has calmed down!”
“No matter if it’s the end times or not, these bastards are so damn hard to please!”
…
Only the shabby man was left.
Trembling, kneeling at the entrance of Xingfu District.
His scared gaze constantly glancing around:
“God bless, please don’t let a Fierce Beast appear…”
But he also dared not sneak back!
Because if he returned.
Those people would really beat him to death!
Thinking over.
He started to shout:
“Benefactor! I was wrong!”
…
Under the gradually deepening night sky.
Xingfu District.
Building C, Unit 1, Room 2102.
In the small bedroom.
On the bed.
Lin Lang lay leisurely in Gu Fei’s arms.
Gu Fei peeled crystal-clear small grapes from the fruit plate on the bedhead and fed them to him.
After hearing Lin Lang’s account of what just happened at the entrance!
Gu Fei couldn’t help but laugh:
“You obviously never intended to give them the supplies from the start, you were just playing with them, right?”
Lin Lang calmly said:
“Weren’t they playing me first?”
