Chapter 320 One Thousand Jin Will Do

Zhou Chong was quite happy that Ling Ran agreed to go on the mission together.

He rushed back to prepare for the mission. This time he decided to go with everyone, so he had to make arrangements for the affairs at the base, as well as for the people who stayed behind.

While arranging various things, Xia Qianqian came to visit.

Zhou Chongcai suddenly realized that since the zombie outbreak, he had been too busy to have a chance to find Xia Qianqian and cultivate their relationship.

"Qianqian, what brings you here? Please have a seat."

The two sat facing each other. Instead of tea, a bottle of iced cola was placed on the table for Xia Qianqian, along with a lot of candy and melon seeds.

Xia Qianqian wasn't tempted by these; she had plenty in her spatial storage.

"I've been hearing other ability users talking about an SS-level mission coming out of the base these past few days?" Xia Qianqian currently lives on Second Street.

Many people with superpowers in the Second Street were notified that they would be going on a mission together.

"Hmm." Zhou Chong nodded. "Although the base has enough supplies right now, it won't last long. We need to plan ahead. Qianqian, does your team want to go too?"

Xia Qianqian nodded: "The base's large-scale missions are definitely safe. A-Chong, can we go?"

Zhou Chong did not agree immediately.

He certainly didn't want Xia Qianqian's team to come; if they came, they would take away his 20% of the supplies. They already only had 20% left, and if Xia Qianqian wanted more, their base would have even less.

Moreover, with Her Majesty the Queen backing them up, there's no need for superhumans outside the base to help.

"Did I make things difficult for you, Ah Chong?"

“Qianqian, your team can go, but I'm wondering how much supplies to allocate to you.” Zhou Chong looked at Xia Qianqian earnestly, his gaze behind his glasses gentle yet firm: “Because of this mission, the base has invited Her Majesty the Queen to help. We allocated 80% of the supplies to Her Majesty, and the remaining 20% ​​is already the base's limit. If you…”

He didn't say the rest, but Xia Qianqian understood.

If they come over, they'll basically be getting free supplies.

“Eighty percent? That’s all their team is…” Xia Qianqian stopped abruptly before she could finish speaking.

Yes, Ling Ran's team is small, but Ling Ran herself is worth more than everyone in the base. Even if she wanted 80%, she could get all of them.

She continued, "Our team doesn't need too many supplies. I heard you're going to a large rice mill this time, so you must have a lot of supplies. Our team doesn't need too many, just a thousand catties will do."

One thousand catties.

Zhou Chong felt that Xia Qianqian was really asking for an exorbitant amount.

The superhuman teams in their base, even those more powerful than Xia Qianqian, didn't get a thousand jin of rice. Yet this guy, who just came to freeload on a mission, got a thousand jin.

For a moment, Zhou Chong felt that he didn't have as good feelings towards Xia Qianqian anymore.

He thought for a moment and smiled, “Qianqian, I agree to this, but the people in the base will definitely have objections. And the main thing is that you haven’t officially joined the Hope Base yet, so I really can’t make the decision. How about you and your team join the Hope Base now, and I’ll decide to give you a thousand catties of rice for this mission?”

"I……"

Xia Qianqian hesitated.

She was planning to get more supplies from the Hope Base and then set up her own base.

Seeing her like this, Zhou Chong looked at her with slight disappointment: "Qianqian, you haven't thought about joining Hope Base, have you?"

Seeing Zhou Chong's gaze, Xia Qianqian felt uncomfortable.

She didn't want to see that look in his eyes; it made her feel guilty, even though she hadn't done anything wrong.
