Tobacco strands are made by baking the tobacco leaves dry and then cutting them into strands. They do not undergo any additional processing, so the flavor is strong and bold, with a hint of bitterness. For people who have not smoked for a long time, it may be tolerable. However, after smoking it a few times, many people cannot adapt to the strong taste. Especially for those with higher social status, they would not be seen smoking such tobacco on the streets with a pipe as if they had no one around…-

"Do you have cigarettes here?" A young man walked into a comprehensive store and shouted at the staff inside, completely ignoring the astonished gazes of the other customers. He puffed out his chest and asked again, "Don't you have any cigarettes here? And you call this an all-inclusive store?" The store manager, who came out upon hearing the commotion, was almost infuriated to the point of smoking through his nostrils. He angrily said, "Kid, do you even know what a cigarette is? Look at you, dressed…

It's hard to imagine that just a month ago, there wasn't a single bar here. In just a short month, they've sprung up like bamboo shoots after the rain. Thanks to the large amount of wine brought by the Grand Canyon settlement, many people have found a new source of income — the bars. You might not be considered less of a man for not smoking, but not drinking is definitely seen as unmanly and cowardly. With the introduction of the mercenary system, bars have become incredibly popular. Every day, countless…

With adequate building materials and manpower, many things could proceed smoothly. The rainfall in the wilderness was not too much, nor too little, and occasionally there would be light rain. A temporary warehouse made of tents was not a good place to keep rain out. So at the beginning of the brick-making process, Zhou Yuanqiang's first request was to build several huge warehouses in the forest of the small oasis to store food and tobacco. Tobacco was a treasure, and its appearance would make people…

With the addition of over eighty new people and forty-three forcibly brought technical researchers, there were nearly four hundred people in the small oasis, making it quite a large group. The tents had poor insulation, but fortunately there were trees that blocked the strong sunlight. However, Zhou Yuanqiang considered many other factors. With the increase in personnel, it was impossible to rely on these tents and stay within the small oasis. According to his plan, he needed to recruit at least one to…

A thousand new recruits were no match for the combat power of two hundred veterans. Even if they selected some people from the newcomers to arm, it would be impossible to form combat power in a short time. Xu Dalai and his team had trained for a month, but they were barely qualified. Fortunately, the endurance, stamina, and perseverance of the people in the apocalypse were greatly advantageous, and training for one or two months was equivalent to training for a year during peace times. However, Zhou…

Exhausted, Zhou Yuanqiang and his group were welcomed by Chen Jianliang. Despite their fatigue, they forced themselves to chat with him and ate some hot porridge. With the help of other people, they set up tents. Now, in the small oasis, there was a shortage of tents, which made it difficult to accommodate everyone. The workers, numbering over a hundred, needed a place to stay, as well as the forty-three people Zhou Yuanqiang brought back. In these wastelands, everyone moved as quietly as possible to…

The caravan that returned to Xiaogreenoasis at night still gave the residents a big fright. Amidst the alarm sounds, they hastily rushed out of their tents, grabbing any available weapons. Ever since the zombies ran rampant, the night had become a dangerous time for humans, especially with the existence of special infected, which added to the peril. Now, the sudden appearance of a caravan headed towards Xiaogreenoasis, with its bright lights, was not a stealth attack, but it was enough to frighten…

When Zhou Yuanqiang returned in the evening, he was drunk. President Lai and his group had sent three truckloads of food. In return, Zhou Yuanqiang had signed his name on an agreement and stamped it with his thumbprint. Their idea was simple: they feared that after Zhou Yuanqiang returned, he would be too far away to control. With this agreement in hand, if he ever went back on his word, all they'd have to do was submit it to the Wasteland Settlement, and someone would naturally deal with Zhou Yuanqiang.…

Far away from the dwelling of the Great Canyon, where the shortcut dirt road was, the previous road had long been covered by sand and dust. After the caravan entered the dirt road, Qiu Guorui and a few others stayed behind with a car to clean up the tracks. There would be more convoys following behind, and if they didn't cover up the tracks, it might lead to the discovery of this shortcut. Once more caravans started using this dirt road, it would attract the attention of zombie hordes and become a dead end…
