I Build a City in the Apocalypse

Xu Bai was reborn. She returned to ten years ago, to the fifth day after the apocalypse began. In this life, she didn't awaken any abilities; instead, she was bound to a system.

With ten ...

Chapter 206 Warning: Build Roads First if You Want to Be Rich

Xu Tianhe seemed to have returned to his pre-apocalyptic self, being oppressed and bullied, and could only swallow his anger and apologize to others.

"No, I'm not wrong. I just want to become stronger."

The lingering figure in his mind constantly stimulated Xu Tianhe.

Xu Tianhe opened his eyes and struggled again, his gaze scanning the crowd gathered not far away on the first floor. Seeing them pointing at him and talking in fear and anger, he roared, "Don't you want to become stronger? With my research, you don't have to limit your talents. Everyone can cultivate superpowers, and no one needs to worry about being killed by others or zombies. Isn't that good? What I did is clearly beneficial to everyone. What crime have I committed?!"

"You are not qualified to deal with me."

Xu Bai made a gesture to Shi Qinghe who was standing on the ground. Seeing Xu Bai's gesture, Shi Qinghe opened the top of the cage. The zombies struggled to climb out of the cage. At the same time, Xu Bai took a pair of scissors and cut the rope that tied Xu Tianhe. He watched him fall into the cage and become food for the zombies.

"We don't want to become stronger in this way."

"What's the difference between this method and killing ten thousand enemies and losing only three thousand of your own?"

"It's because of people like him that more of our family members die at the hands of zombies. It's damn right."

“…”

Before turning into a zombie, Xu Tianhe heard people talking and was in a trance. He couldn't help but wonder, did he really do something wrong?

In the blink of an eye, there were two zombies in the cage.

After Xu Tianhe fell down, Shi Qinghe found the right time to lock the cage lid again. Seeing that Xu Tianhe's requirements had been met and he had turned into a zombie, Shi Qinghe quickly asked someone to transport the zombie in the cage back to the research building.

The residents of Dawn City didn't dare to say a word when they saw this scene, and looked at Xu Bai who was standing by the window.

"I don't want to lecture you all too much. I believe everyone can clearly see that Dawn City does not welcome such extreme ideas."

"Until the zombies regain their sanity and can live like normal people, they are still our primary enemy."

"It is not allowed to intentionally increase their strength for any reason."

"If something like this happens again, it won't just be Xu Tianhe who will suffer this fate."

Not only did Xu Bai make harsh remarks in front of Shuguang City, he even posted the matter on the forum with Jiao Nanmu to warn people in other areas.

The zombie tide was not caused by Xu Tianhe, but he increased the zombies' strength and then let them go. No snowflake was innocent in the avalanche.

Xu Bai leaned in Ji Heng's arms, calming himself down.

Ji Heng was a qualified companion, patting Xu Bai's back with his big hands.

After noticing Xu Bai's improved mood, he spoke up, "Next time, just let me handle this kind of thing. Don't let yourself be harmed by someone who's not worth it."

Xu Bai sighed, "I've never considered myself a savior, but when I work so hard to build the city's infrastructure, wanting to provide myself and everyone with a better living environment, I can't help but feel frustrated when someone holds me back."

"I understand."

After Jiao Nanmu announced the good news, Shangjing City, which usually paid close attention to Shuguang City, immediately called Xu Bai.

Xu Bai was leaning in Ji Heng's arms and resting with her eyes closed when the ringing of the phone woke her up.

After taking it, I heard the question from the other end, "City Lord Xu Bai, why didn't you inform us about what happened on the forum? Such a genius can be used by us with just a little guidance. We can guide him in the right direction and work hard to find a solution to the zombie apocalypse as soon as possible."

"Are you serious, Mr. He?" Xu Bai cleared his throat and spoke in a cold voice.

He Changjun choked. He knew very well that this way of dealing with things was far better than leaving people behind or detaining them. With the advent of the apocalypse, except for the ones they sent people to directly manage, the order in most cities had already been disrupted.

Xu Bai is ruthless, but he can warn many people with ulterior motives.

But he made the decision without informing me first. Was he trying to start a new business, as others said? That's why she never stayed in the company for long.

"City Lord Xu Bai, we're deeply sorry that your Dawn City has encountered a massive zombie wave. I'm wondering if the situation in the city is good right now. Do you need us to send someone over to assist?"

Xu Bai raised his eyebrows. "It's up to you, Mr. He. There is only one Flower Country."

He Changjun looked at the hung up phone and was stunned for a moment. There is only one Flower-Growing Country. Is that the Flower-Growing Country headed by Xu Bai or the one headed by this side?

He Changjun is surrounded by several other people from different factions.

"Well, how does she explain it? Is there another reason why something happened that can't be directly mentioned on the forum?"

"No matter what the reason is, you should have consulted us first. Doing this is presumptuous."

He Changjun repeated Xu Bai's original words and immediately became furious again, trying to guess Xu Bai's intentions.

"Don't think too badly of the little girl. There is only one Flower Country, and she has protected so many people. If Xu Bai hadn't established a processing plant here, many people would have driven to the capital instead of repairing their homes and spending all day doing this."

"No need to send anyone to Dawn City."

"Collect building materials in Area C. Ordered to complete within three days."

“…”

…………

In Dawn City.

"Are they worried about this place and want to send people here?" Ji Heng asked as he poured tea for Xu Bai.

"Maybe? No need to care about them." Xu Bai didn't care about these.

She welcomes anyone who comes here with a sincere heart for the residents and does not cause trouble.

"We have more important things to do now."

"Um?"

Seeing Xu Bai spread out the map, Ji Heng walked forward in confusion and looked at the map she placed on the table.

The map shows the entire territory of the Flower Country.

Xu Bai drew many marks on it.

Starting from Dawn City, go to the left south and even to the west. After the end of the world, no one has ever been to the west or northwest. As for the left south, they only went to South City once two or three years ago and have never been to South City since then.

In recent years, no one from there has fled to Dawn City.

It was like a broken promise, and they were completely cut off from the other part of the territory.

No one knows what the current situation is in this large area.

"Do you want to extend the train construction schedule to this area?" Ji Heng's index finger crossed the other half of the map.

"yes."

"I've thought about it. With our current plan, we may not be able to complete the remaining 30 to 40 percent of the progress in the last eight to nine years. We also need to reserve more time to judge whether our approach is correct."

“So, if you want to be rich, you must first build roads.”
