I understand what the furry ones are saying. I'm going crazy killing people in the apocalypse.

Chapter 26: The End of the Nest
But now supplies are becoming increasingly difficult to find. After they hand in three batches of supplies, there is nothing left. If this continues, they will be kicked out of the base sooner or later.

The couple was not worried about their own safety. They were worried about their eight-year-old daughter. It was so dangerous out there, and she didn't know what she would face if she was kicked out of the base.

"Mom, is the porridge ready?"

A tender child's voice was heard, and the eight-year-old girl pointed at the gurgling stone pot and asked.

He Xiuqin touched her daughter's head and said, "Are you hungry, Yiyi? Mom will serve you some porridge." She took out a bowl, scooped a spoonful of wild vegetable and kudzu root porridge, blew it cool and fed it to her daughter, "Drink slowly."

Tian Wu was silent for a long time, then said, "Instead of waiting to be kicked out, why don't we move out in the next two days?"

He Xiuqin sighed: "Where should we move to? What if we encounter those monsters? Neither of us has special powers..." She looked at her daughter who was drinking porridge obediently and shook her head: "No! We have to ensure our daughter's safety. We can't take any risks!"

"But we will definitely be kicked out of the base in two days, and we may not even be able to take our belongings with us."

He Xiuqin was silent for a long time, then sighed helplessly: "It can only be like this, we won't have a good life anywhere without special abilities..."

Here.

Liang Jing returned to the Red Maple Base again. They got two trucks and parked them in front of the gate of the base.

Lin Yaozu stood in front of the car, holding a loud speaker and began to shout: "Taoyuan Base is hiring workers for a limited time! The salary is three corns per meal. You can get two corns if you sign up and get on the car. Come on, come on! No more waiting!"

Liang Jing and Lin Guangzong took out the cooked corn from the car, and the crowd who heard the noise and saw the food rushed over instantly.

Seeing this, Lin Yaozu used his fire ability to stop these people in time: "Everyone, line up! Don't push!"

A flame successfully blocked the rushing crowd. Although they were all skinny and pale from hunger, they still followed the command and lined up in a long queue.

This time, the main purpose of coming to the Red Maple Base was to recruit ordinary people. As for how to select them, Liang Jing and Qu Jin discussed the results before departure. They planned to explain the situation directly and arrange these people to collect wood and stone for two weeks.

Collecting wood and stone is a hard and tiring job. When there are too many people doing it, the people responsible for record keeping and supervision will become negligent.

They will select those who are hardworking and down-to-earth from this group of people to stay in the base, and as for those who are lazy and clever, of course they will be sent back the same way.

"Everyone, don't be anxious. Listen to me first." Lin Yaozu shouted with a loudspeaker, "Our base is only recruiting 100 people. The job content is to cut wood and move stones for two weeks. The work is quite hard. Those who are willing to do it can stay. We won't force them."

As soon as these words were spoken, there was a constant noise.

Some people couldn't help but complain: "This work is so tiring, and only three corns is too little."

"Yeah, after all the hard work, how can anyone eat such a small amount of food?"

"I'm not saying anything, it's already the end of the world and we're lucky to have something to eat."

"If you don't want to do it, there are plenty of people who will do it."

"..."

Liang Jing didn't say anything. He stood in front of the car, glanced at the people who were complaining, and silently excluded them.

Lin Guangzong was in charge of distributing corn. Those who got the corn couldn't wait to eat it, and some even cried while eating.

He Xiuqin, who was at the end of the line, turned to her husband and said, "Let's ask if we can take the kids with us. If that doesn't work, forget it."

Tian Wu responded and took his daughter forward: "I want to ask, can we take the child with us? We won't cause any trouble for you, just let the child stay by the side."

Liang Jing glanced at the little girl standing obediently beside her father and agreed: "Okay."

The corn was distributed quickly, and Liang Jing drove back with the people who had registered.

The news of the recruitment was passed to the top management of the Red Maple Base.

The head of the Red Maple Base is Ge Yong, a B-level Earth-type Psychic. Hearing the message from his subordinates, Ge Yong's face turned ugly: "So, the sixth and seventh teams have joined the Taoyuan Base?"

The middle-aged man sitting next to him slammed the table and said, "What Taoyuan Base? How dare a small tribe that I have never heard of come to our Red Maple Base to rob people!"

Ordinary people can just leave if they want to, but people with special abilities are related to the safety and life of the base, so of course they cannot be left out!

"Brother Yong, they are openly against us. I will take people to wipe them out right now!"

As the head of the Red Maple Base, Ge Yong still had some brains: "Wait, let's send someone to check the situation first. This Taoyuan Base can actually get so much corn, it must be something special. We can't act rashly."

Liang Jing had long guessed that their high-profile recruitment would attract the attention of the top management of the Red Maple Base.

But it didn't matter. According to his understanding, the Red Maple Base was falling apart due to material problems, and there were only a few people with special abilities left. There was no need to worry at all.

It was already evening when they returned to Taoyuan Base. When the survivors got out of the truck and saw the clean and tidy road surface, residential buildings full of the smell of fireworks, and large tracts of crops, they were shocked.

Qu Jin came back earlier than them and he recruited twenty survivors in the urban area.

"came back."

Qu Jin walked forward and glanced at these survivors. The average age of people who could survive the apocalypse nowadays would not exceed 35 years old. It could only be said that it was the survival of the fittest.

Liang Jing asked: "Where do you plan to arrange for them to live?"

Qu Jin has already made arrangements: "Let's stay at the foot of the mountain for now. There are a few tents over there. We can squeeze in and stay there."

"Row."

Lin Guangzong woke up those who were standing there in shock and asked them to leave the base and walk towards the distant back mountain.

"Hey, did you see that just now? That piece of land can actually grow food, cabbage and tomatoes..."

"I see it! I thought I was seeing things."

"Don't you see there's a convenience store? I really want to go in and see what delicious food there is."

"Is this base still short of people? I want to stay here."

"I want, too."

"..."

He Xiuqin was also very excited while holding her daughter's hand: "Do you think we can stay here? I think this Taoyuan base is great. If we can stay here..."

Lin Guangzong held a loudspeaker and said to these people: "It is not impossible to stay here. As long as you perform well and work hard, you can stay."

This made everyone very excited.

Tian Wu looked at his wife and said, "You heard it, as long as you work hard, you can stay. We must work hard in the next two weeks and strive for a chance to stay in the base!"

……

……

Business center.

Qu Jin reported the specific progress of the matter: "A total of 120 people have been recruited. I have arranged for them to work in the back mountain. The probation period is two weeks."
