Apocalypse Rebirth: 3000 million won at the beginning

Chapter 2080: None of them are simpletons!

Chapter 2080: None of them are simple characters!
The bus started.

The car was carrying Uncle San, Liu Jinglue, Li Zhengping and his two wives, as well as Li Hang, Li Yuan, and Li Peizhen who came to pick them up.

In the car.

Li Hang and Li Yuan looked at Li Zhengping's wives with curiosity.

Uncle San glanced at the two of them and said, "Be polite!"

That's not how you look at people.

Li Hang and Li Yuan looked embarrassed and awkwardly looked away.

The two sisters, Dai Xinyi and Dai Xinyan, curiously looked around the camphor tree base.

This is their first time here.

Electric vehicles are everywhere, and everyone has a small donkey riding on the clean and tidy roads.

The roadside trees on both sides of the road are laden with fruit.

The fruit was ripe, but there was no sign that it had been picked.

If these were in an oil city, the fruits would be secretly picked before they were fully ripe.

At this moment, the bus drove up to a gate.

Li Zhengping said to the two of them:

"After entering this gate, you will reach the core of the Great Camphor Tree Headquarters Base: the Inner City."

He continued with a smile:

"Generally speaking, only Level 1 personnel or their family members are allowed to enter."

"You are my women, you can come in too!"

The two sisters were filled with shock.

Dai Xinyan clicked her tongue in amazement:

"Does that mean that everyone living inside is in a high-rise building under big camphor trees?"

At this moment, Li Zhengping showed his responsibility as a man and comforted him:

"Pretty much. There are many other family members of first-level personnel like you, who enjoy the same treatment as first-level personnel. Don't worry, I'm here, you don't need to be nervous, I'll take care of everything."

He was different from the Li Zhengping of the past. After three years of tempering in the oil city, he had become much more mature.

The two sisters looked at the mature and domineering Li Zhengping with eyes full of admiration.

However, the two were still a little nervous, since everyone in the inner city was a Level 1 person.

Each of them was someone they could only dream of reaching.

There are six levels within the Great Camphor Tree faction.

They were only level five in the oil city before.

When I worked in a garment factory, even the workshop foreman was only at level four.

Normally, the patrol team's management personnel are all at level three, so they can keep a tight rein on them.

Level 2 personnel are either internal affairs supervisors like Lao Huang, or members of the combat brigade.
In an oil city, a first-level personnel would be considered a high-ranking official.

Living at the bottom of the oil city, they didn't even have the chance to see it.

But at this moment, the inner city they were about to enter was filled with people who were all Level 1 personnel.

As the gates opened, the vehicles entered the inner city.

The first impression the two had of the inner city was that it was spacious.

The buildings in the inner city are not tall; the tallest is only seven stories.

Moreover, there are not many buildings, and very few people come and go.

"Brother Ping, how many people live in this inner city? It looks like there aren't many people here," Dai Xinyan asked curiously.

Li Zhengping scratched his head and said:

"There should be a few hundred people, but not many."

The Big Camphor Tree has been established for more than eight years, but very few people have been promoted to Level 1 staff.

Unless one makes an exceptionally significant contribution, one can be promoted to Level 1, and those who are promoted to Level 1 are generally assigned to branch bases to oversee operations.

Or they'll be out on missions.

People like Ju Tianrui, Lao Lü, Dongtai, and Xiao Jun are often away from home and rarely come back.

The inner city is very small; even with the two central mountains included, it only covers a few hundred acres.

Besides the two mountains, the most iconic feature of the inner city is the ancient camphor tree, a thousand years old, located between the villa area and the two mountains.

The camphor tree is tall with a very large canopy, and the ground beneath it is lush and green.

Dai Xinyi looked at the ancient camphor tree not far away and asked:

"Brother Zhengping, is the reason why our Big Camphor Tree is called the Big Camphor Tree because of this big tree?"

Li Zhengping looked at the ancient camphor tree and nodded, saying:
"Yes, it all started with this big camphor tree. I used to climb it all the time when I was little."

This large camphor tree holds many childhood memories for the younger generations of the Li family.

Dai Xinyi's eyes flickered. She remembered the tree logo printed on those vehicles and various items, which originated from this tree.

Big camphor tree?
It is lush and full of vitality.

Just like the power of a large camphor tree.

The wide roads and low-rise buildings have a unique character.

There were even seven or eight dogs chasing after the bus, which gave the two sisters a feeling of relaxation.

Although the inner city of Dazhangshu is not large, even fewer people live there.

The area covers hundreds of acres, but only a few hundred people live there.

Extremely luxurious!

Compared to the trading market and residential areas of the oil city, the housing density there is extremely high.

The closest distance between the residential buildings is only three meters.

The first-tier houses are much better, but the lowest-tier houses, where you can't even see the sun on the first, second, or third floors, can only see sunlight around noon.

The worst residential buildings in the market are not much better than the pigeonholes in Kowloon City, Hong Kong; they are veritable slums.

The same area of several hundred acres, if used to build third-tier housing in the trading market residential area, could accommodate 200,000 people.

However, only a few hundred people live at the headquarters.

Moreover, the inner city occupies the best and safest geographical location in the headquarters base of Dazhangshu.

There are mountains and water.

In addition, after the industrial relocation of the inner city a few years ago, there are no more factories in the inner city, and it has become a residential area.

Even food factories, military factories, and research institutes have moved to the outer city.

All that remains are the supporting facilities:

Such as schools, hospitals, canteens, gymnasiums, electronic reading rooms, libraries, fitness centers, basketball courts, tennis courts, and cinemas.
There is also an underground warehouse next to the villa area.

This warehouse contains the most valuable resources of the Great Camphor Tree faction.

For example, the latest generation of zombie-attracting drugs.

The absence of industrial plants has greatly improved the living environment in the inner city.

However, there are still ten greenhouses here, half of which are used as experimental sites for new varieties by the Ministry of Agriculture.

soon.

The vehicle drove into a residential area.

The residential area is divided into two parts: the northern part is a residential area for ordinary first-level personnel, and the southern part is a villa area.

The villa area is mainly inhabited by members of the Li family.

The residential area has a good environment and has been renovated and upgraded in recent years, with all kinds of infrastructure available.

There are three types: one-bedroom apartment, two-bedroom apartment, and three-bedroom apartment.

It has a kitchen, bathroom, living room, and bedroom.

The houses allocated to Level 1 personnel are all free to live in; however, different types of housing are assigned based on the number of personnel.

If it is a family of three, they will be allocated a three-bedroom, one-living-room apartment.

If you are single, you will be assigned a one-bedroom apartment.

Upon entering the villa area, the people inside the villas rushed out as soon as they saw the bus arrive.

Among them, Li Yushi walked the fastest, pulling his grandmother Liao Chunlan along.

"Zhengping is finally back!"

Liao Chunlan looked at the bus with expectant eyes, trying to find Li Zhengping's two wives.

"Old man, have you seen Zhengping's wife?"

"No, don't worry."

The older generation is more accepting of Li Zhengping marrying two wives at once, after all, they are people who came from that era.

At the entrance of one of the villas, Uncle Si looked around and, not seeing Li Suxin, called upstairs:

"Suxin, come down quickly! Your brother is back! Come down now!"

Li Suxin, who was peeking through the curtains upstairs, pouted and reluctantly went downstairs.

The Li family members, who were not doing anything, were all curious about Li Zhengping's two daughters-in-law and came to watch.

While observing, they are also welcoming.

"Zhengping, I've known he'd amount to something since he was a kid. Look at these two!"

"What? Auntie, you didn't say that before."

"I've hardly ever seen a double tire blowout. Do you think they might all look exactly the same?"

The bus stopped downstairs at Villa No. 4, and a large crowd had already gathered around it.

Third Uncle was the first to come down, and Third Aunt ran over to him as soon as she saw him.

"His dad!"

Although they are an old married couple, they still miss each other very much after not seeing each other for so long.

Li Zhengping brought the two sisters downstairs, and the two sisters panicked the moment they saw so many people.

"Wow, these two girls look so alike!" Aunt Li Qingqing exclaimed in a loud voice.

Aunt Wang Ping also clicked her tongue as she looked at the two sisters' buttocks, "Big butts are good, having babies is good!"

Mother Li looked at the two sisters with a smile and said, "Zhengping, tell me, which one is the older sister and which one is the younger sister?"

Grandma stepped forward and took their hands, saying, "Good children, good children. You're so beautiful." Yu Tong and Yang Xiaozhu, standing at a distance in the crowd, simply watched quietly with smiles.

Ding Qingqing then picked up Li Ke'ai, who called out in a childish voice that she wanted to see the bride.

The scene was somewhat chaotic at one point.

Confused.

The two sisters were completely dumbfounded.

They had never experienced anything like this before and were at a loss for how to react.

So enthusiastic.

In the eight years they had lived through the apocalypse, they had never seen such a scene. At this moment, these people were so warm and sincere that they felt a strange sense of emotion.

The women of the Li family were hardly affected by the outbreak of the apocalypse.

It still retains the simplicity it had before the apocalypse.

"What's going on!" Old Master Li Yushi shouted as he looked at the chaotic scene.

Everyone suddenly became quiet.

Li Yushi looked at Li Zhengping and said, "Zhengping, please introduce these two to everyone."

Li Zhengping was also stunned by the enthusiastic scene. Now that he had recovered, he quickly pulled the two sisters along and introduced them to the relatives in front of them one by one.

He led the child to Li Yushi first, saying, "This is Grandpa, just call him that like I do."

"Hello, Grandpa," the two sisters greeted obediently.

Li Yushi was greatly pleased and nodded with a smile:

"Alright, alright. Originally, we were going to call her that after she was married, but it won't make a difference if we do it one more day. That's fine, that's fine."

Then, Li Zhengping led the two sisters and called out to their grandmother:

"This is Grandma, call her Grandma."

"Hello grandma."

"This is an older woman."

Hello, Auntie.

"Auntie, where's my uncle?"

"He went to help you organize your wedding."

"Yes, yes, Uncle, you've worked hard."

"This is my second aunt."

"This is my third aunt."

"This is my third uncle."

"This is my aunt, and this is my uncle."

"This is my second brother."

"This is my second brother's wife, sister-in-law."

After introducing everyone, Li Zhengping led the two sisters to their father.

"This is my father."

"dad."

Fourth Uncle's face turned red, and he suddenly didn't know what to do with his hands.

"Isn't this against etiquette? Shouldn't we call him that after the wedding? Shouldn't I give him a 'change of address' fee?"

Li Zhengping stepped forward, grabbed his father's shoulders, and said:
"Dad, it's okay. It's the apocalypse, there aren't so many rules now!"

His voice was steady and powerful, and there was no longer the resentment in his eyes. His gaze towards his father was full of tolerance.

Fourth Uncle was taken aback and looked at Li Zhengping. His son was finally acting like a man.

Heartache, emotion, and comfort overwhelmed him, bringing tears to his eyes.

Just then, Li Suxin walked over.

Li Suxin, who was in her teens, was quite beautiful, but her eyes held a scrutinizing gaze.

Upon seeing Li Suxin, Li Zhengping's face lit up with joy. "Suxin, I didn't see you just now!"

"Oh," Li Suxin replied rather coldly.

Li Zhengping awkwardly continued his introduction:
“This is my younger sister, Li Suxin.”

"Hello, little sister," the two sisters said.

At the same time, they took out hats they had woven themselves from the package.

"We spun this ourselves, as a gift for you when we first meet."

Not only the younger sister, but the two sisters also gave hats or scarves and other textiles to everyone they introduced to.

This behavior won the favor of many members of the Li family.

That's so polite.

Li Suxin glanced at the hat that was handed to her and then at the two sisters.

"Thank you, but I don't want it."

This remark immediately caused an awkward silence.

After saying that, Li Suxin turned and left without even calling her sister-in-law.

"This kid!"

"Yes, how could they do that!"

Li Suxin had a problem with Li Zhengping, and on the other hand, she subjectively believed that the two women definitely had ill intentions.

When Li Zhengping saw Li Suxin do this in front of everyone, his expression changed for a few seconds.

In contrast, Dai Xinyi's expression remained unchanged, and she still smiled as she said:
"Haha, the child is still young, it's nothing."

Let's introduce ourselves too.

She looked at everyone and said:

“I am Dai Xinyi, the older sister, and she is my younger sister, Dai Xinyan.”

“Our parents are no longer alive, and we have no other relatives.”

"I went to the oil city a year ago, and then..."

"We met Brother Ping by chance."

Her words drew sighs from the crowd.

"It's so pitiful, they have no parents or family anymore."

Grandma gripped their hands even tighter and said:

"Xinyi, Xinyan, this will be your home from now on!"

"Yes, don't worry, we are all your family!" Aunt Li Qingqing said.

Everyone liked the two sisters very much and welcomed them.

She's beautiful, polite, and seems to have high emotional intelligence—who wouldn't like a daughter-in-law like that?

Everyone gathered around the two sisters, chatting enthusiastically.

in the crowd.

Yu Tong smiled, occasionally chiming in with a joke, thinking to herself, "My sister is quite clever, but we'll have to observe her character further."

While chatting with the two sisters, their aunt Wang Ping was also observing their fingers to see if there were any marks from frequently making clothes.

People who frequently make clothes usually have some marks on their index fingers.

My second uncle is a shrewd man, and my second aunt is naturally no simpleton either.

Upstairs, behind the curtains, Li Suxin peeked at the two sisters, observing their words and actions.

As for Li Qingqing, she subtly asked some questions during the chat:
"Xinyi, where are you from?"

"How have you all managed all these years?"

Although the Li family members are simple and honest, they are not foolish.

Their enthusiasm was genuine, their sincerity was genuine, and their welcome was genuine.

However, considerations and doubts also exist.

If a family has a daughter-in-law who is unorthodox and unethical, it can lead to a lot of messy and chaotic things.

The two sisters will definitely influence Li Zhengping, and Li Zhengping will also influence the entire Li family.

So they were all trying to find out what kind of people the two sisters were.

Uncle San watched from the side, shook his head with a wry smile, and thought to himself:
"What's wrong with everyone? Do you think I'd misjudge them?"

He grabbed Li Hang, who was trying to ride away on a small donkey, and asked, "Where are your older brother and your second uncle?"

Li Hang replied:
"They're in the Second Outer City Administrative Building."

Uncle San climbed onto the back of his seat without hesitation. "Come on, take me there. It's too noisy here."

Li Hang smiled and said:

"Third Uncle, that's what I think too. These women are really cunning."

Snapped!
Li Hang touched his head. "Third Uncle, why did you hit me?"

"You talk too much! Get out of here!"

"Oh."

The electric scooter is on its way.

on the way.

"Third Uncle, how long will you stay after you come back?"

"Three days."
