The Walking Dead TWD

Chapter 162 Arrival at Green Farm

Paul set out with Zhou Nan, but he was heading north while Zhou Nan was heading south. He also had to go to the Nighthawk Society's headquarters to find guns and food, so he was destined not to be able to act with Zhou Nan this time.

Zhou Nan transferred a large number of personnel from the prison, but he was not worried about any accidents happening in the prison. Now the prison was the only one in power, and there was no one around who could fight.

As for internal problems, they are simply impossible to occur.

Although conflicts will always arise between people, such problems will only occur when there are internal or external troubles such as food shortages.

The prison now has sufficient food, patrols, and even entertainment facilities. The ratio of men to women is balanced, and it is a thriving place. Naturally, there will be no problems inside.

However, to be on the safe side, Zhou Nan still placed a few of his own people among the people in the nursing home, Grady Memorial Hospital, and Woodbury.

If these people really have bad intentions, Zhou Nan will be notified and respond immediately.

As for Rick and Lori, Zhou Nan did not let them stay in prison, but chose to keep them by his side.

The reason is also very simple.

That is, Lori will soon find out that she is pregnant.

Any signs of instability must be nipped in the bud in time, which is Zhou Nan's consistent style, so Zhou Nan decided to keep the iron triangle with him.

Zhou Nan did not take the same road as Rick's group in the play. That road was full of cars without gas, which seriously hindered everyone's travel speed.

So Zhou Nan asked everyone to take the path next to Fairburn, so that they could go directly to Green Farm.

They drove all the large trucks from the winery here. Zhou Nan had already sent people to investigate. The farm roads here were very wide, enough for large trucks to pass through.

Although there were some cars that were in the way, it was not difficult to deal with them by releasing their handbrakes and then using trucks to push them out of the way.

Green Farm

Maggie was riding her horse around her farm out of boredom.

If she finds a zombie, she will go back and tell Otis, who will capture the zombie and lock it up in the farm barn.

This is because Hershel Greene is very stubborn, and perhaps the reason for this stubbornness is related to his religious beliefs.

In most cases of arguments with others, he would insist that he was the right one.

These zombies were all farmers and neighbors around Hershel. Because they had some friendship, Hershel thought they were just sick.

Hershel firmly believed that the government could control the situation, and he also believed that these "patients" could be cured.

Maggie did go to college, but due to financial problems, she only attended for one semester.

But it was enough that she had seen the world, was not pedantic, and had a broad vision to make her understand the inappropriateness of her father Hershel's behavior.

Maggie believed in her heart that these zombies were beyond help, but because of her stubborn father, she dared not refute him.

Suddenly, a zombie was seen wandering outside the farm fence, trapped in the swamp and unable to move.

Maggie, who was patrolling the farm on horseback, looked at the zombie with a dazed expression because she thought of her brother Sean Green.

Sean Green is Hershel's son and Maggie and Beth's brother, but he died not long ago.

If Hershel were to be believed, their brother had become a "patient" waiting for treatment.

When Sean Green was repairing a fence, he was hit by a tractor driven by Dark, the son of his boarding house guest Kenny and his wife Katya, just because the child was playing around.

Lee tried to push the tractor but failed, and finally he and Kenny chose to save young Duck.

However, his brother Sean Green died tragically at the hands of those regarded as "patients" by his father Hershel, and was eventually locked up in a barn by his father as a patient.

Although Lee, Clementine, and Kenny's family were driven away by Hershel, this did not soothe Maggie's wounded heart.

Maggie always thought of her brother uncontrollably, her eyes were red, but Maggie, with her strong character, forced herself to hold back her tears.

As she passed the farm gate, Maggie saw a large truck parked in front of the gate of her farm.

Seeing her coming, a young man jumped out from the driver's seat and waved at her continuously.

"Is there someone here again?"

Ever since her brother Sean Green's accident, Maggie has developed an instinctive resistance to these outsiders.

Maggie also suppressed the sadness on her face, controlled her emotions, and slowly rode her horse to the young man.

The scrutiny in her cold eyes was undisguised; she was carefully observing this outsider.

"Excuse me, what are you doing here?" Maggie did not relax because of Zhou Nan's handsome appearance. Instead, she looked alert.

Fortunately, in order to avoid scaring Maggie, Zhou Nan asked everyone to hide in the car in advance. Otherwise, with so many people, it would be difficult for people to think that they were kind people.

"Hello, we are here to look for some leather like cowhide. We heard there is a slaughterhouse nearby so we came here."

"We also want to purchase some crop seeds, and if you have livestock, I'd like to buy some from you as well."

Hearing that they came here for crops and livestock, Maggie looked at the big truck behind Zhou Nan and realized that what Zhou Nan said was true.

A smile finally appeared on her expressionless face.

"So that's how it is. Then you've come to the right place."

"The slaughterhouse is very close to us, but because of the recent epidemic, they have all gone home. They may have to wait until the epidemic is over before returning to production."

Zhou Nan nodded to show that he understood.

It doesn’t matter. He came for the leather. If no one is around, he can just go and empty it out. It saves a lot of trouble.

"But we can provide crops and livestock. If possible, I would like you to trade in cash because we don't want checks. With the recent epidemic, it will be very troublesome to go to the Atlanta bank," Maggie looked at Zhou Nan expectantly.

Zhou Nan also understood in his heart that it seemed that the Hershel family did not realize the seriousness of the disaster. They gave up their precious crops and chose to accept useless money.

Zhou Nan also didn't want to use worthless banknotes to deceive the Hershel family, so Zhou Nan would choose to exchange them with other things.

If the Hershel family intends to leave with him, these things can be considered as capital investment.

If they don't leave with him, Zhou Nan will give them sufficient weapons and equipment so that they can survive better on the farm.

And in this case, Zhou Nan will also make them a promise: if they really can't maintain it, the door of Zhou Nan Prison will always be open to them.

The matter was done perfectly, and Zhou Nan could be said to have done his best for them.

Zhou Nan could also see that Hershel and the others had little contact with the outside world and they had been staying here comfortably for too long.

Zhou Nan thought of the swamp he saw when he came here.

The swamp is a natural barrier here. If it didn't exist, Green Farm would be constantly harassed by wandering zombies.

However, as the weather gradually gets colder, the swamp begins to freeze solid. Perhaps it won't be long before the swamp can support the bodies of zombies.

At that time, when the helicopters from Fort Benning Military Base completed their military missions and flew back to Fort Benning from Atlanta, they would attract the desperate tide of corpses in Atlanta.

That would completely demolish Green Farm.

In the play, it was because of this reason that their family was broken up and they were forced to leave the farm.

Seeing that Zhou Nan was a little dazed, Maggie repeated what she had just said.

"We have a lot of seeds here, including some rapeseed, which we have reserved. If you are not planting on a large scale, I think it should be enough."

"We also have a lot of livestock, such as horses, laying hens, Holstein cows, Landrace pigs, rabbits, and some sheep, but the number of sheep is very small."

Zhou Nan came back to his senses and pointed at the truck behind him. "How much can you sell? I want them all!"

Maggie's eyes lit up: "Are you sure you want them all?"

"If you want it all, you can take everything on this farm, as long as you can pay the price."
