"That would be my honor. I wonder where the Prince of Zonghan intends to place me?"

Zong Han glanced at Chen Jun, then laughed and said, "Of course, Boss Jiang can go wherever he wants."

"Oh? I didn't expect Prince Zonghan to be so generous. If it were your position, would Prince Zonghan be willing to give it up?" Jiang Zhi put one hand on her hip, staring at Zonghan's face as if she wanted to see through him.

Zong Han's smile vanished instantly, and the other ability users beside him glared angrily at Jiang Zhi.

One of them angrily said, "Boss Jiang, there's something I'm not sure if I should say..."

"Then don't say it!" Jiang Zhi smiled but her eyes didn't reach her eyes; she was still looking at Zong Han.

Zong Han suddenly burst into laughter: "As expected of Boss Jiang, even his way of joking is so unique."

"Yes, so where does Prince Zonghan plan to place me?"

"Isn't Boss Jiang running a mobile grain store? Why don't you go back to your old business? But you still need to attend every major meeting at the base. As for the store, you can open it in the central area so that it's fairer and more convenient for people from different regions to exchange grain."

"That would be great!" Jiang Zhi waved her hand, signaling Chen Jun to lead the way quickly; she couldn't wait.

Seeing Jiang Zhi leave, Zong Han suddenly lost his temper and slapped the face of the beautiful woman next to him so hard that she flew out and crashed into a rocky edge, dying instantly.

"Damn it, a woman dares to ask for my position so arrogantly. If she didn't have some ability, I would have killed her." Zong Han was furious, and the people around him lowered their heads, especially the beautiful woman closest to him.

Seeing her companion's miserable end, she wished she could disappear into the ground and save her life.

“Chief, we can’t tolerate this kind of person. She’s already strange. If she stays in the base for a long time, with her ability to produce food, she could easily cause a riot by just a little manipulation of those slaves and commoners.”

"Yes, yes, and that mutated cat that's with her is even stranger. This cat only listens to that woman. If we don't deal with it soon, we'll be inviting a wolf into our house."

Zong Han wasn't blind; he had noticed the cat that wasn't fully grown yet, which was following Jiang Zhi.

This is the first time I've seen someone who can command mutated beasts.

Moreover, this woman immediately mentioned her own position; how could she possibly stay?

This woman must be dealt with.

Forget about food. His wife has enough food in her space to last him ten lifetimes. As for other people, it's the apocalypse. Why would he care about others? That would be stupid.

"First, we need to set up a plan, capture that cat alive, and send it to Dr. Qiang so he can study it. If Jiang Zhi can control mutated beasts, then we certainly can too," Zong Han instructed.

"yes!"

Chen Jun then led Jiang Zhi to her residence.

It was a makeshift tin shed with a hole dug out underneath. Going through the hole, there was a roughly five-square-meter area below, where a 1.2-meter-long bed was placed. There was a blanket on the wooden plank, and a small table next to the bed.

There was a not-so-clean cloth on the ground.

“It’s the apocalypse now, and conditions are rudimentary. This is about all we can do. Is Mr. Jiang satisfied? What else do you need? We’ll find it for you if we can,” Chen Jun said with a smile.

Although Zong Han was annoyed by Jiang Zhi, he still had to maintain appearances.

Unless she dies here, if she doesn't die and instead joins the Shuofang base, it would be a huge loss.

"The bed is too hard, add two more blankets to the bed. Also, the air here is too dry, put a tub of water in it for me. As for the rest..." Jiang Zhi looked up at the wall and said, "We also need a light. It will be dark here after you leave, and I'm not used to it."

Chen Jun thought to himself, "You really have no manners!"

"Okay, I'll have someone bring it over in a bit." He smiled on the surface, but was secretly crying inside.

Chen Jun left the torch behind. Before leaving, Jiang Zhi added that she was too tired from the journey, and that they could talk about opening the shop in a few days.

Of course, during this period, Jiang Zhi's living arrangements must be taken care of.

In the middle of the night, Chen Jun sent a female slave to Jiang Zhi, saying it was for Jiang Zhi to use.

The female slave looked to be in her teens, timid and submissive. After making the bed for Jiang Zhi, she huddled in the corner of the tin shed, not daring to look up at Jiang Zhi at all.

What appears to be ordering someone around is actually surveillance.

Jiang Zhi entered the cave, pulled down the curtain, and could no longer see inside from the entrance.

Wanfu got out of bed and said to Jiang Zhi, "Mom, let's go out and get familiar with things."

"Great, my son is wonderful." Jiang Zhi lifted the curtain, letting Wanfu out of the cave. Because she was moving so fast, the female slave didn't see her clearly at all, mistaking her for a gust of wind.

Jiang Zhi listened carefully to the sounds outside; the female slave was still awake.

Nowadays, people's sleep schedules are completely reversed.

During the day when the weather gets hot, the tin shed is unbearably hot; only the ground is comfortable. However, she has no responsibility or obligation to care about the life or death of the female slaves.

Jiang Zhi took out a boxed lunch to eat, then ate a bunch of small snacks that didn't have a strong flavor, and also drank two cans of cola. With food in her stomach, it was already dawn.

As soon as it got light, it gradually got warmer outside.

The female slave moved some coverings to shield herself from the heat. As for Jiang Zhi, she took a quick shower and changed her clothes, even though the new clothes were exactly the same as her previous ones.

She moved two blocks of ice into the iron basin that Chen Jun had brought her the night before, and the temperature inside the cave quickly dropped.

I glanced at the thermometer; it read 15 degrees Celsius.

It's over 60 degrees Celsius outside.
