Apocalypse Rebirth: 3000 million won at the beginning

Chapter 2106 Turmoil (Bonus Chapter)
10 points.

What can you do with 10 points?
The group remained rooted to the spot.

Huang Qilong, holding the number card in his hand, said:

"10 points, if you buy the simplest food like tortillas, will only be enough to buy 40 of them."

"Eating two corn tortillas a day will only last us 20 days!"

Cai Su said with annoyance:
"I was hoping to buy a car so I could carry supplies with me, but now I'm afraid I can't even afford a wheel."

Everyone now fully realized just how difficult their predicament was.

Previously, as members of the third-level armed forces brigade and immediate family members of researchers, they received free food and free housing.

They were provided with very good housing, and their meals consisted mainly of steamed buns, noodles, and some stir-fried dishes.

We can still eat meat from time to time.

But now.
They have to live frugally on the points they have.

It's like falling from the clouds to hell in an instant.

"Then," Zhao Min glanced at her husband, then at Huang Guangbiao:
"Shall we leave now?"

Huang Guangbiao was never really committed to leaving Dazhangshu.

Because he has lived here for several years and has gotten used to life here.

He would never want to go back to the miserable life he used to lead.

"How about we find a place to stay tonight and then discuss this further?" Huang Guangbiao suggested.

Huang Guangqi was confused by the numbers on the points card, and his plans were immediately disrupted.

At this point, he had no choice but to agree:
"At this point, there's no other way."

One day later.

The news about the sea fog disaster and the zombies coming ashore spread widely after a day of fermentation.

"Old Gou, have you heard? Apparently, in a few months, sea fog will blanket the entire globe, and the zombies that disappeared will return to land from the ocean. And those zombies are even stronger now! What are we going to do?"

"I've heard it from others, what can I do? Just let it be."

"Hiss, once those zombies return to land, they'll definitely come to the base! If those zombies..."

"I don't care about any of that. The headquarters base in the camphor tree has stood here for so many years. Why would we be afraid of sea fog disasters? We've seen fog before, and we've gotten through it."

"But this time it's supposedly different. They say the zombies in the sea have become incredibly powerful, and they're saying they might not be able to stop them this time!"

"and then?"

"Then what are you going to do? Are you suggesting we run off to die?"

"These days, is it safer for you to run away than to stay in the big camphor tree? Wake up!"

"But many people say that there will be a lot of wall-climbing zombies climbing up. If there really are that many wall-climbing zombies, it is unlikely that we can stop them."

"Let's split up and go outside. At least there are fewer of us, and we won't be facing so many climbing zombies."

"Go out if you want, but don't bother me as I go to drive my freight truck. Move aside, I need to get to work."

Another day passed.

The rumors became increasingly outrageous.

The original scenario of sea fog disaster and zombies has evolved into various versions.

"Have you heard? The sea level is rising and it will eventually submerge all the continents."

"No way, I heard it was zombies flying a plane, apparently planning to bomb our headquarters."

"What I heard was that it was a poisonous sea fog that was spreading all over the world, and that people would die if they smelled it."

"You're all wrong. It's going to rain heavily in a few days, and the rainwater is poisonous!"

Once the news spread, it became uncontrollable.

These past few days have caused quite a bit of panic. Although some of the rumors are outrageous, some people still believe them.

The impact of this news is quite significant.

It's being spread from top to bottom.

The truth will out eventually; even government officials are talking about it.

However, people of higher rank generally disdain this.

They have all been part of the Big Camphor Tree faction for more than five years. These people have truly followed the Big Camphor Tree to where they are today, and they have seen all kinds of storms.

On the side of the Internal Security Brigade.

"Captain, there's been a lot of rumors circulating in Buffer City lately. Should we try to control the public opinion?"

"No need, the higher-ups have made arrangements. Just do your job normally."

"Ok."

After two days of discussion, similar comments have surfaced in both the Oil City and Oriental Paradise, though relatively few have been made.

In the past two days, the purchase volume of basic food items has suddenly increased by 30%. There is even a trend of continued increase.

but.

After two days of digestion, all five bases in Dazhangshu have made systematic adjustments to their grain production.

Furthermore, a series of measures have been prepared.

It was noon on that day.

A broadcast announcement caught everyone's attention.

"The following is an announcement:"

"The recent sea fog disaster and the return of zombie hordes to land have been the focus of everyone's attention."

"The headquarters of Dazhangshu has officially confirmed that this is true."

The sea fog disaster will arrive at the headquarters in eight months, and will subsequently reach various branch bases.

Zombies in the ocean are also changing after being soaked in seawater.

but! "

"Everything is under our control. We have dispatched several reconnaissance teams to keep a close eye on the spread of the sea fog and the mutation of the zombies."

We will continue to inform everyone about these situations via broadcasts so that everyone is clearly aware of the extent of the sea fog.

Please rest assured, we have eight months to prepare!

In addition, you can rest assured about the food supply!

Our grain reserves are 12 tons, which can support the current population's food consumption for 5 months!
We also have a variety of defensive weapons.
Even with the sea fog, we can withstand the onslaught of zombie hordes!

"Since its establishment, Big Camphor Tree has been established for nine years. Its headquarters base has never been breached by a zombie horde. We have withstood hundreds of large and small zombie hordes!"
With our extensive experience in fighting zombies, don't panic. We'll be able to hold them off this time too.

"As long as we work together, we will definitely be able to overcome this natural disaster and zombie outbreak."

After the broadcast announcement is finished.

Then a young female voice rang out:

"Several new regulations will be issued next:"

"1. Grain purchase restriction order. Each person is limited to purchasing 20 corn cakes per day. It is strictly forbidden to purchase basic grains such as corn cakes and mixed grain cakes through purchasing agents."

Once discovered, all points on the card will be deducted, and the person will be removed from the large camphor tree.

"2. Incitement and sedition are strictly prohibited. All information must be based on official announcements. Anyone found spreading rumors will be expelled from the camphor tree!"

"3. Construction workers are prohibited from resigning unless due to special health reasons. Once they resign, they will never be hired again!"

The broadcast notification was delivered to the five bases in Dazhangshu.

A tremor ran through the area.

The people in the North were unaware of this news, so everyone was quite shocked.

The Northwest is doing alright, since they were the last to be affected by the sea fog disaster.

The headquarters base in Dazhangshu is where the most discussions take place.

Passersby were all talking about this.

However, the situation is polarized.

"See? We still need to trust Big Camphor Tree. The management has a firm grip on the situation. There's no need to panic."

"Yes, that makes sense. We ordinary people should just eat and drink as usual, and work as usual."

"The broadcast said it would be updated in real time, which is really helpful."

"Some people are spreading all sorts of nonsense. This is the real news, okay?"

Some people are skeptical and are starting to think outside the box, wanting to make other preparations.

"Although the big camphor tree has survived all these years, the headquarters is closest to the sea fog. Why don't we go to another branch base to take shelter?"

"Forget about the base. It's best to split up and go out separately. Spreading out will attract fewer zombies."

"But with food rationing, what can we do? If we run out of food, and then the sea fog disaster comes, we'll starve to death."

"What should I do? This is really worrying me!"

"I've made up my mind. I'll leave the headquarters next month and find a secluded corner to hide in."

"However, the order states that if anyone is not at the base after the sea fog disaster, they will be expelled from Big Camphor Tree and will never be allowed to enter any Big Camphor Tree base again."

"Life is more important!"

Basic food supply stores have also seen a surge in customers.

Some people actually bought the maximum limit of 20 tortillas.

Thankfully, the various branch bases spent two days preparing so much food in advance.

That's why there was no exchange controversy.
