Our neighborhood has been transported again.

Chapter 278 My Eldest Brother is Kind-Hearted

Yang Long laughed loudly upon hearing this, "Well said, there are still dozens more."

He didn't take Chen Jingsi's second half of the sentence seriously.

Judging from his performance just now, this person has surpassed ordinary people, and it is highly likely that he used an enhancement card to reach this level.

In their martial arts world, no one else besides him used enhancement cards.

No matter how powerful the neighboring community is, it shouldn't be this far ahead.

"If Chairman Yang doesn't believe me, why don't you come aboard and see for yourself?" Chen Jingsi said with a faint smile.

The other members of the Jianghu Society around them exchanged glances. Some wanted to stop them, while others were thinking that this was a good opportunity to find out what the other party was up to.

"President, how about we go in your place?"

“Yes, the other side only sent one person, maybe a few dozen, to invite someone. If you go in person, it will be embarrassing.” Someone seized on the loophole in Chen Jingsi’s words.

“Okay, I’ll go with you,” Yang Long said. “But I won’t be alone; I’ll need to bring a few more brothers. Is that alright?”

“That’s certainly feasible.” Chen Jingsi was somewhat surprised. He had thought Yang Long wouldn’t dare to go, but it turned out that this man really had some courage and actually agreed.

On the deck, everyone looked towards the urban village, where Chen Jingsi had been waiting for a long time to return.

"What if the people in the urban village take action and he can't come back?" Yuan Ming said with some worry.

Qin Ziwu replied coldly, "Then there's no need to keep these troublemakers alive. My elder brother is kind-hearted and can't stand seeing a massacre. When we make our move, we'll have him step aside first."

Cao Biansheng's expression was strange. "Master Qin can't stand seeing people die, can he?"

After a while, Chen Jingsi appeared on the main road of the urban village, accompanied by Yang Long wearing a hat, and two burly men following closely behind.

"Interesting. It seems the urban village made the right choice." Zhao Pu smiled. If the other party had no intention of negotiating, they wouldn't have sent anyone over.

Zhao Pu turned to Qin Ziwen and lowered his voice: "Captain, what do you plan to do with these people in the urban village?"

Qin Ziwen was silent for a moment, then shook his head: "I haven't thought about it yet."

Before setting off, Jia Liangcai gave him a suggestion: to select three and kill one, then shuffle the team into groups of ten, implement a system of collective punishment, and then use the tactic of exhausting the people to severely oppress them, so that they would have no time to do anything else.

Once they leave after a month, there's naturally no need to worry.

But Qin Ziwen felt it was too extreme and difficult to accomplish.

Perhaps there is a better way to handle this.

“Captain, I think the key is to grasp the primary and secondary contradictions,” Zhao Pu said. “Once the primary contradiction is resolved, the secondary ones will naturally fall apart.”

"You said."

"Chairman, we need to first distinguish who the enemy is and who we can win over to our side," Zhao Pu said calmly.

“Those who have already activated their homes cannot leave this place. Their interests are highly tied to their homes, making it difficult for them to unite with us.”

"On the contrary, for those ordinary people at the bottom of society who haven't revitalized their homes, if they knew they had the opportunity to leave with our community, would they still choose a third path besides the urban villages and Hongding Building? Would they continue to stay on a ship destined to run aground?"

How do you know they can leave with our community?

“I’m guessing,” Zhao Pu said frankly, “but I think it should be possible, after all, the trees we planted and the animals we collected before traveled through time with our community.”

Qin Ziwen pondered for a moment, then looked at Zhao Pu and asked, "Did you come up with this yourself, or did someone else tell you this?"

Zhao Pu said, "I've been having some free time lately, so I've been reading some books and come up with some ideas."

Qin Ziwen thought of the mare that had traveled with the community. After these wild horses were brought back, they were allowed to roam freely in the grassland of the community instead of being put into cages.

They still traveled to this map along with the community.

So it seems... there might actually be a chance.

Judging from the assessment of the community, it seems to only consider those who activate the community as "people".

Those whose homes have not been activated will be ignored.

Therefore, those who haven't activated their homes may actually have a chance to leave with their homes.

However, he also thought of something else. Only those who have activated and bound their homes can be considered a true community of interest in the neighborhood, while others who haven't activated their homes are considered a "neutral" faction.

They may not know this right now, but once the community can really take outsiders through time, the rest of the people will find out sooner or later.

Therefore, this matter has both advantages and disadvantages.

If it is profitable, it can absorb more people and obtain more labor.

The downside is that if a strong enemy is encountered in the future, ordinary residents of the community will have an extra way out, and they may not necessarily be of the same mind as the community.

No, that's not right.

Qin Ziwen suddenly realized.

Even if he doesn't say it, wouldn't others know?
There are many smart people in this world, and if their community doesn't try it, other communities won't either.

Therefore, it is impossible to keep this kind of information hidden.

This is an unstoppable trend.

The only thing we can do is improve our "internal strength".

To develop and expand one's homeland and influence.

The strong get stronger, always maintaining a leading edge and staying ahead of others.

In this way, when we encounter enemies in the future, it will be the enemies who should be afraid.

Thinking of this, Qin Ziwen felt a weight on his shoulders.

He could already foresee that his future rivals would be far more than just those from his own neighborhood.

Instead, they set their sights on all their competitors who had traveled through time in the same batch, and even those who had traveled earlier than them.

"President."

Chen Jingsi led Yang Long and his two companions up onto the deck.

At this moment, Yang Long was staring in horror at the cable that had been pulled from his waist. He looked up at the uncontrolled cable that flew overhead like a snake.

Yang Long's voice tightened, and he asked with difficulty, "What is this?"

Qin Ziwen approached and gently patted Yang Long on the shoulder, "Don't be afraid, the person who pulled you up was one of our crew members."

Special crew members are still crew members.

Yang Long felt a tightness in his chest.

From giant ships to ballistae, and then to various events.

He thought he had figured out what was going on with the other person, but then the other person suddenly pulled out something he couldn't understand.

Is this crew member serious?
As for the other two who boarded the ship with Yang Long, they exchanged a glance and then fell silent.

They had just been pulled from the icy seawater and hadn't even had time to react when several ropes descended from the sky, binding them tightly and bringing them onto the deck. At that moment, not only were their bodies cold, but their hearts were also cold.

No wonder Chen Jingsi said he could only be ranked in the dozens on the ship; now Yang Long and the other two are starting to believe him.

Having prepared a full speech, Yang Long gave a wry smile upon encountering this unexpected situation, and said, "President Qin, please speak."

"I'm planning to take you under my wing," Qin Ziwen said bluntly. "Are you willing?"

"Yes or no," Qin Ziwu added seriously.

“Shut up when I’m talking.” Qin Ziwen kicked his younger brother in the butt.

Before boarding the ship, Yang Long would have either refused outright or found other reasons to decline, but now he was seriously considering the issue. The pressure from the people around him after boarding was too intense. Before his transmigration, he was an underground boxer, and his senses were always sharp.

He could sense that there were many powerful people around him, and he even felt that he might not be able to defeat the horse behind Qin Ziwen.

　Two more chapters will be released later, but I'll release one chapter first.
