Chapter 110 You are really good at hurting people!

He Yang shrugged and motioned for them to go into the house.

Ai Wanxin was the first to step into the main hall's door.

Xiang Maosen stood up from behind the desk, nodded to Ai Wanxin, and said, "Hello, Wanxin, nice to see you again."

Ai Wanxin's eyes swept across the maps of Ziyang City and Fengcheng hanging on the walls on both sides.

She smiled slightly and said, "Commander Xiang, I know you are busy. He Yang should have told you the purpose of my visit."

Xiang Maosen came out from behind the desk and asked her to sit on the armchair. Yin Yanhan and Pei Junlin consciously stood behind her.

He Yang stood aside and watched, feeling that she was even more arrogant than the commander of an army.

"Xiao Yang, pour the guests a glass of water." Xiang Maosen said very kindly.

Ai Wanxin glanced at He Yang. What was the relationship between him and Xiang Maosen?

"Wanxin, I heard from Xiaoyang that you seem to be interested in donating a batch of supplies to help the people affected by the disaster in Ziyang City."

"I am a little surprised that you can be so broad-minded in such a critical moment, but I am more moved."

"It's just that it's not easy to obtain supplies nowadays. I wonder where you got this batch of supplies from?" Xiang Maosen asked with a smile.

Ai Wanxin looked at Xiang Maosen's eyes, which were full of essence. Although his skin had aged, his eyes were clear and sharp, and should not be underestimated.

After talking for a long time, he only said that he wanted to donate to the people in the city, but did not say that he was donating to the base. He asked him to ask for favors from the people and not to ask him.

Otherwise, you would say this is an old fox.

But this kind of roundabout way didn't work on Ai Wanxin.

She said frankly: "I used to run a food company, and I just happened to get a batch of inventory before the end of the world."

"This is a portion of the purchase order that happened to be preserved." Ai Wanxin took out from her pocket some of the purchase orders that were left over from when she was purchasing supplies.

Xiang Maosen took it and looked through it. The rice, flour and soybeans were all measured in hundreds of tons.

"Fortunately, our warehouse was well chosen and was not damaged during the flood," Ai Wanxin continued.

"I checked before coming to the base, and all the supplies are still in good condition."

"I plan to donate it to the base. To be more precise, I plan to donate it to you. I decided to do so because I see that you are a responsible and capable person."

Xiang Maosen was startled, then laughed and said, "I feel a little embarrassed by Wanxin's praise."

"Don't be embarrassed. I'm not giving it to you for free. I have a requirement. After all, it's several hundred tons of food. I don't know how many people it can save. If I give it to you for free, you can't afford this blessing. It will shorten your life. I can't do such a deceptive thing."

The corner of Xiang Maosen's mouth twitched slightly. He took the time to glance at He Yang and saw that his face was full of gloating.

Uncle Xiang, you should also experience the feeling of being confronted by her and being speechless.

Xiang Maosen is indeed an experienced person. He quickly adjusted his expression and said, "Wanxin is a straightforward person. I will not say these polite words. Donating so much food to the base is indeed a great help in times of need. Wanxin can ask for anything. As long as it is within the scope of Xiang's rights and responsibilities, I will try my best to meet it."

Ai Wanxin took a sip of water slowly, then stood up and walked to the map of Ziyang City. She drew a circle on a piece of open space on the west side of the base with her slender fingers: "I want this piece of land."

Xiang Maosen also stood up and looked at Ai Wanxin with scrutiny.

It was an undeveloped wasteland on the west side of Ziyang City. The mountains formed a natural barrier to the northwest, and the east side was adjacent to the tall city walls of Ziyang City. Only the open plains to the south were at risk of being attacked by the zombie tide.

This is a piece of land in an excellent location, but because the soil is severely desertified, it cannot be transformed into farmland, so the base has not reclaimed it for the time being.

Why does she want this land?

"Wanxin, the land is state-owned. I have no power—"

"No, you do." Ai Wanxin interrupted Xiang Maosen. "This piece of land looks good, but there are other places like this in Fengcheng. I have hundreds of tons of grain, so I can enclose a piece of land anywhere and become a local tyrant."

"But I didn't mean that."

"I am not interested in these things at all. I think our base has done a very good job. Professional matters should be left to professionals. I made this decision purely because I saw the people in the city starving and I couldn't bear it."

"You don't have to doubt my motives."

"I want this piece of land for no other reason. You know, before the end of the world, I was a private entrepreneur. I was only interested in doing business. If the business I do happens to make a contribution to the continuation of the nation's legacy, that would be even better."

Xiang Maosen frowned and thought carefully. During the flood period, the military focused on rescuing the affected people and did not rescue much supplies.

Coupled with the fact that a month-long flood destroyed most of the material reserves, the food supply at the base was indeed very tight.

Nowadays, all major cities are unable to take care of themselves, and people's hearts are in a state of panic. If they want to transfer supplies from other places, they should not worry about whether others have them. Even if they do, they have to first protect the residents of their own city.

The base has been reorganizing production, but it takes time for crops to grow. Just when there was a shortage of food, someone handed over food that could solve the urgent problem.

Even though he knew her purpose was not as simple as she said, it was still difficult for him to refuse this request.

Seeing him hesitate, Ai Wanxin said, "If you can't make up your mind, then who can make the decision? I'll go find him. I appreciate you as a person, but when doing business, you can't be so calculative."

"Okay, I promise you." Xiang Maosen said without hesitation.

Ai Wanxin took out a red pen from his desk and carefully outlined the boundaries of the location she wanted.

"Then we have reached a consensus. This will be written into the contract later. It is clause one."

Xiang Maosen's eyelids twitched, and He Yang smiled and said, "There are two more?"

Ai Wan looked at He Yang in confusion: "Captain He, I marked out a piece of wasteland from outside the city. You didn't lose anything, and you just want to exchange it for a few hundred tons of food?"

"Sweetheart, didn't you say you wanted to donate to the base? How did it become an exchange?"

"I've already said that I'm donating to you. You can't bear this blessing. You know that sudden blessings are unlucky. Commander Xiang didn't say anything. You're too stingy. I'm disappointed."

He Yang felt a sudden pain in his chest. Why did you attack out of disappointment? You are really good at hurting people!

"Wanxin, it's okay, just continue." Xiang Maosen looked at He Yang's twitching face. He couldn't let them continue talking. If they continued, Xiao Yang would cry.

Ai Wanxin then turned to Xiang Maosen and pointed at the border of the land and said, "General Xiang, even though there are barriers on the west, north, and east sides of this land, this mountain is actually not a safe place."

"There are so many animals on the mountain. We have encountered mutant rhinos, mutant wolves, mutant snakes, and mutant mosquito swarms." She glanced at He Yang and continued, "The south is open, unlike Ziyang City, which has a wall barrier. If the zombies attack, we can't resist them alone."

"So, I need fortifications, and weapons."
