From Under One Person: Sincere Journey Through the Heavens

While Wu Chenxi and 4277 were envisioning a bright future, Hong Guniang had already finished her homemade breakfast with Lu Jin and Zhang Zhiwei and started their own activities.

Lu Jin went to the supplies distribution room and ordered the kitchen staff to separate the peels, flesh, stems, and pits from the fruits and vegetables collected yesterday.

"Isn't this a bit... wasteful?"

As Eun watched those fine red apples being processed into piles of peels, flesh, and seeds, his eyelids twitched.

To know.

Apples are provided daily to the city lord, as well as the enforcers of the Light and Shadow Society—the Lightbringer Vatican and the Brahma Law!

The farm's apple orchard was cut down and uprooted yesterday by the new "colleague" in front of us, and there will be no more apples produced in the future!

Now they're actually peeling, cutting, and cored all the apples—

Working in the materials management office is a cushy job. As long as you don't take too much at once, it's practically like enjoying the treatment of a city lord in private.

But what is this "new colleague" supposed to do?

"As a materials manager, we must use every resource of the lighthouse wisely!"

Apples spoil if left out too long, and refrigerating them wastes too much electricity. It's better to juice the flesh directly, keep the seeds, and as for the peel—

Mix it directly with lettuce to make a fruit salad, which should be served to the people quickly to avoid waste.

Lu Jin spoke with great conviction.

“But the taste of apples drops several levels after they are juiced, and they may even be hard to swallow.” Eun’s scalp tingled. He suspected that if the apple juice were offered to the city lord, he would spit it out after just one sip.

"Taste?"

Lu Jin chuckled coldly, stared directly at You En, and asked him a question, "Do you know what the purpose of establishing the Three Laws is?"

"In order to achieve a rational allocation of resources..."

"nonsense!"

Lu Jin interrupted directly, sneering, "I also went to the Shangmin dining area yesterday. The bread crumbs, broccoli, lettuce, etc. left by the Shangmin after each meal are enough to feed a hundred Chenmin!"

Is this what they call rational distribution?

The fundamental purpose is to avoid being noticed by the Devouring Beasts on the ground! Although the Devouring Beasts have facial features similar to humans, they directly detect humans by sensing their life essence! And emotional fluctuations in humans will activate the life essence within them, making them easier for the Devouring Beasts to detect!

Otherwise, why would you want to abolish family ties?

In theory, the establishment of a family, the assumption of responsibilities, and the care and love for family members and relatives are what inspire family members to have a spontaneous and positive work attitude, rather than the current situation in Lighthouse, where all the residents exude a sense of listless decadence.

Upon hearing this reason, Eun took three or five steps back, his eyes filled with horror.

“Brother Eun, I advise you not to spread this news, otherwise our wise and mighty city lord might replace me with a different colleague.”

Lu Jin chuckled and said, "If you don't believe me, brother, why don't you guess why the previous city lord was attacked by the 'Devouring Beast' just like that when he promulgated the three laws, causing the number of people in the Lighthouse to drop from nearly 20,000 to just over 10,000?"

Seeing Eun's eyes tremble, Lu Jin pretended to suddenly realize something and laughed, "That's right, brother, you look young, but I heard you're over fifty? I suppose you personally participated in that thrilling 'change' back then?"

"You...how do you know?"

Eun could no longer hold back and questioned him aloud.

"How do you know? Isn't it obvious? It seems that no type of Devouring Beast capable of high-altitude flight has evolved in the world yet. How did the lighthouse flying high in the sky get attacked by Devouring Beasts back then?"

Lu Jin smiled and asked in return, then chuckled and said, "I've also heard about what happened to Mark, the previous commander of the Hunters—"

Who slashed his throat?

Why did 4068, a mere mortal, rise to become an upper-class citizen and even become the next commander of the hunters?

Who is behind all of this?

Dear Brother Ewan, I think you should know the answer perfectly well!

Eun trembled all over.

But Lu Jin continued, "Now that you know something you shouldn't know, or rather, that your previous guesses have been confirmed, if you were to reveal the true purpose of the promulgation of the Three Laws, thereby causing panic among all the citizens of the Lighthouse and the Dust People, do you think Charles would let you off the hook?"

"Do you think the city lord will let you off?" Yuen threatened Lu Jin with the same words, his tone fierce but his heart weak.

"of course not."

Lu Jin smiled faintly, "But he's got scarlet fever now, and only if my two companions and I work together can we cure him..."

Why don't you guess whether we can completely cure him within a year?

In an instant.

Eun's pupils contracted, his mouth agape in disbelief.

"Shh-"

Lu Jin raised an index finger to her lips, her lips curving upwards, and said softly, "Back then, everyone in the infirmary with a brain knew this without saying a word, including Charles. If you went to tattle, you'd be a real nuisance."

Yuen could no longer refute, and a sense of fear arose in him towards Lu Jin—the other party was not only a young man who controlled power beyond the imagination of ordinary people, but also a cunning and scheming schemer!

And what about Charles?

Although he is the city lord and has his own methods, he now needs the help of Lu Jin, Zhang Zhiwei, and Hong Guniang... Until the researchers in the ecological research lab and medical clinic truly find a way to cure Scarlet Syndrome, the status of these three is truly second only to the city lord!

"Now that you've thought it through, let's get on with today's resource distribution. I also need to check on the growth of the crop seeds we brought from the farms and ranches."

"Also, send me some crop experts and bird-raising experts! Oh, and does anyone know how to grow fungi? Mushrooms are excellent food because they have a short growth cycle and are very nutritious!"

Seeing that You En had calmed down, Lu Jin got down to business.

After that, he went to farms and ranches...

To control the allocation of resources throughout the lighthouse—

Lu Jin naturally thought so.

But that's not realistic right now.

Taking the reconstruction of the lighthouse as an example, Lu Jin knew nothing about it and had no idea what materials and resources were needed for the corresponding repair, maintenance, and manufacturing.

Therefore.

This part will still need to be allocated by Eun for some time to come, and his current task is to control the allocation of food resources such as the lighthouse's aerial farms and ranches.

People eat for food.

This is an eternal truth, regardless of time or space!

As for clearing fruit trees from farms and slaughtering cattle on ranches...

Firstly.

Lighthouses are already short of food, so they need to grow as many crops as possible to fill their stomachs. Other crops, especially fruits, have to be pulled up! Ranches, on the other hand, need to raise more cost-effective poultry, rather than beef cattle with long growth cycles!

Secondly—

Since the fundamental purpose of the three laws is to suppress emotions, then the people, whether superior or inferior, should be treated equally!

After all, delicious food can also touch people's emotions!

# Chapter 1149 Dividing into Classes and Selecting Group Leaders

Although Lu Jin's actions were flamboyant, few people, whether upper class or lower class, knew about the changes at the farm and ranch.

But Zhang Zhiwei is different.

The first order given to all the Dust People was to divide them into two hundred groups of fifty people each, totaling nearly ten thousand people.

Each class must include the elderly, young adults, women, and children, and be divided into four groups.

Seeing the commotion among the dust people, Zhang Zhiwei gave a soft shout, his voice booming like thunder, silencing them all. They covered their ears, staring wide-eyed in disbelief.

in short:

Being confused doesn't hurt your brain!

Immediately, Zhang Zhiwei took out two hundred forms, tossed them casually, and they landed in the hands of two hundred commoners. He then loudly proclaimed, "I have made the rules clear. Form your own teams. I will only give you one hour."

"They already rested yesterday, are they going to rest again today?"

Before the person arrived, their voice was heard.

When Zhang Zhiwei looked toward the passageway to the side, he saw Vatican leading Brie and three or five law enforcement officers out.

"Are reward points earned by ordinary people based on working hours or on the completion of tasks?" Zhang Zhiwei asked rhetorically.

"you!"

Vatican was momentarily speechless.

Working hours...

That was a product of the old world's factories.

The Lighthouse distributes contribution points based on the completion of tasks.

In other words, as long as the Dust People complete the tasks they are assigned, they will receive contribution points!

"If you, sir, have plenty of free time, why don't you help me make a planning record?"

Zhang Zhiwei, however, was not polite at all. "Perfect timing. It seems that the Light and Shadow Society is in charge of distributing identity tokens. I suppose your computers have recorded the identity codes of all the Dust People present. I would appreciate it if you could help me compile a table containing two hundred classes later."

Although the Dust People possess a wide variety of skills, they mainly rely on practice to master them. However, in terms of knowledge reserves, on average, they can only recognize words and do simple addition and subtraction. Therefore, it takes them an hour to form a class.

But since you, sir, have received higher education from the Lighthouse, and given that your department seems to specifically manage the identities of the upper and lower classes, surely you could compile the inspection fees for two hundred classes into an electronic document in just one minute?

Upon hearing this, Vatican's breathing quickened—

Apart from the city lord, no one dares to order her around!

Look, there's one more now...

Do not!

There are three!

"Okay, I agree!"

Vatican gritted his teeth and said, word by word, "However, please remember, I am not a lowly enforcer, but a Light Bearer of the Light and Shadow Society!"

"Yes, Your Excellency! No problem, Your Excellency!"
