Mu Cheng nodded and said, "Okay, my second brother should have told my uncle what I meant. Besides, I don't want anyone to know that the research institute has anything to do with me."

The commander smiled and said, "I've already thought of all this and will make all the arrangements. I'll also have Xiao Nuo or Xiao Ye arrange for trusted soldiers to go over to the research institute."

Mu Cheng nodded and said nothing more.

The commander continued, "Xiao Cheng, I mean we don't need to sign the contract. Let's just talk about how to cooperate. My idea is that you provide the technology, and I'll be responsible for all the supplies needed for the research institute. We'll split the profits 50-50. What do you think?"

The profit sharing was fair, but Mu Cheng was still hesitant. The other party was the commander, and she was just a civilian. What if he turned against her?

Seeing Mu Cheng still hesitating, Tang Nuo spoke up, "Commander General didn't sign a contract with you to protect you. Now everyone over there is watching Commander General. If your contract is found by them, all our efforts to keep it secret will be in vain, and you will be dragged into this battlefield without gunpowder."

Tang Ye also smiled and said, "Yes! Cheng'er, even if you don't trust the commander, you should trust me and Xiao Nuo!"

At this moment, the two men were like pimps, but Mu Cheng had no choice but to trust them. "Okay, let's do as Uncle Jiang says."

The commander nodded with a smile and said, "I have already chosen the location of the research institute for you. As for the researchers inside, I will not interfere."

Mu Cheng nodded without objecting. The commander was deliberately avoiding suspicion, and she was unwilling to let the people arranged by the commander enter the research institute.

However, she was unfamiliar with the capital and it was still difficult for her to find someone.

The commander told Mu Cheng some more details, and the soldiers who were eating outside also dispersed. The commander and Tang Ye left together, saying that they would hold a meeting in the afternoon to tell everyone about the crystal core and corpse poison.

Tang Nuo and Su Ziyu also took Mu Cheng away with them. The three of them went to the farm first. After Tang Nuo gave the order, even though the farm was feeling the pain, Ye didn't say anything and let Mu Cheng go to the fish pond to choose the fish herself.

The so-called fish pond is actually a movable inflatable swimming pool. Mu Cheng walked around in it and picked out more than a dozen fish. Although Mu Cheng used crystal cores to exchange them, the other party still looked painful, but in the end he said nothing.

Carrying the fish back to the Tang family, Mu Cheng had one fish sent home to eat in the evening, and left another one for Tang Nuo's family, and put the rest into the fish pond in the space.

Tang Nuo called the two of them to the study, took out a stack of information and handed it to Mu Cheng. "I had someone sort out some scientific research personnel information these days. You can take a look."

Mu Cheng took the information, which clearly recorded where these people worked before the apocalypse, what experiments they were engaged in, which school they died in, and their life backgrounds.

Su Ziyu was also watching from the side and was instantly surprised. "Aren't these the people you asked me to follow and secretly observe these past two days?"

Mu Cheng raised his head and glanced at Su Ziyu, then looked at Tang Nuo. They had met these people before.

Tang Nuo smiled and said, "I have to personally see them to confirm whether they are suitable. Besides, it doesn't count if I've seen them alone. I have to find someone we both think is good before I can use him with confidence."

In order to reassure her, she took her elder brother with her to secretly observe these people.

"Second brother, thank you!" No matter what, we should thank him for his thoughtfulness.

Tang Nuo smiled and said, "Zi Yu and I have checked their character for you. As for whether they can be used, it still depends on whether they are compatible with you. Take this information back and look through it carefully. Once you've chosen someone, just ask Zhang Zi Yu to invite them over."
