He can freely travel back and for...

Chapter 167 Expanding the Guard!

That evening, four women—Xue Qingshan, Tang Jiao, Wei Ruoqing, and Zhao Xiang—along with one man—Wei Lun,

The family sat together harmoniously for a meal, and Zhao Xiang, who had initially been standing to the side, finally agreed to sit at the table and eat with them.

Wei Ruoqing felt more sorry for Zhao Xiang because Zhao Xiang would just watch her eat, and Wei Ruoqing couldn't bear it. Besides, Zhao Xiang was the older sister and the elder in the family, so Zhao Xiang had no choice but to listen to Wei Ruoqing.

Dinner was always the most enjoyable time of the day, and surrounded by women, Wei Lun felt an indescribable happiness.

After the meal, everyone returned to their rooms, washed up, and went to bed.

After thinking about tomorrow's plans, Wei Lun took out his phone and called Li Shi.

"Chairman Wei, what do you need to tell me?"

On the phone, Li asked very enthusiastically that since the factory was merged into Jue Lun Technology Group, the entire factory had become much more high-end.

The company has a high-tech image, so customers have more trust in it, which directly drives the factory to continuously reform and improve. Now the factory is completely self-reliant and is much wealthier than before.

"Li, as usual, prepare some boxed lunches and snacks, as well as rice, flour, vegetables, meat, and some other things like tea and cigarettes."

"Um, it's getting late today, bring it to me tomorrow morning!"

Wei Lun said on the phone that because of the high consumption in the apocalypse, he had no choice but to prepare rice and flour.

But even rice and flour were like a windfall to these scavengers in the apocalypse. They were all incredibly excited, as rice and flour were such rare treats. No one complained at all.

After all, they are very cheap in modern times, but extremely precious in the apocalypse.

After finishing the phone call, Wei Lun lay down comfortably on the bed, closed his eyes, and slowly drifted off to sleep.

The next day, at 10:00 AM,

Wei Lun sat up sleepily in bed and looked out the French windows at the manor. Li had delivered all the goods long ago.

As for Wei Ruoqing, Xue Qingshan, and Tang Jiao, they also went to the company early.

Only Wei Lun and Zhao Xiang were still at the manor at the moment, along with the robot fairy.

It was already quite late, so Wei Lun hurriedly washed up, ate breakfast, and then stored all the food in his jade pendant space.

Back in the room, I activated the black jade pendant.

A halo of light flickered, and Wei Lun was transported from the modern world to the headquarters compound of the post-apocalyptic world.

Wei Lun emerged from the room on the second floor.

Qin Mutong was currently doing her makeup at the vanity, looking stunningly beautiful, which captivated Wei Lun.

Qin Mutong seemed to sense something, and turned around to look.

Wei Lun was standing at the doorway, staring at her with obvious longing. Qin Mutong's face flushed instantly.

"Honey, you're here?"

Qin Mutong stood up, tidied her appearance, and looked graceful and elegant.

Wei Lun chuckled and touched his nose.

"Wow, you look so beautiful today!"

As he spoke, Wei Lun noticed Qin Mutong wearing a white dress and a white cape, making her look ethereal and otherworldly.

"Thank you for the compliment, honey. It's been so many days, haven't you?"

Qin Mutong seemed a little strange, after all, she hadn't been with Wei Lun for a long time.

For the next half hour, there was only a series of crackling sounds on the second floor.

About an hour later,

Wei Lun walked down from the second floor, beaming with pride. He thought about how Qin Mutong had been taking care of things all these days since he'd last convened a management meeting in the apocalypse.

Then the time-space communication headset was connected, and I began receiving work reports from everyone.

Ten minutes later,

Weren came to the conclusion that the post-apocalyptic world was currently facing a manpower shortage. The responsibilities on all fronts were increasing, but a brigade of only 60 people was insufficient.

Should we expand the guard?

The good news is that production of the combat robots is now on track, and there are already dozens of them in operation.

However, considering that the combat robots were a trump card, the guards had not revealed them, and others were unaware of this.

Qin Mutong staggered down from the second floor, looking somewhat weak.

He walked over and sat down next to Wei Lun.

Qin Mutong looked at Wei Lun with a puzzled expression. He had also just received the message from the time-space communication headset, so he was very curious about Wei Lun's sudden investigation.

"Honey, what's wrong? Has the guards been behaving poorly lately? Why are you concerned about everyone's work?"

In Qin Mutong's mind, Wei Lun disliked management. His unusually proactive inquiry about the guards this time suggested he had another idea.

Moreover, according to everyone's reports, everyone is extremely busy right now. Although there are eight large teams and 24 small teams, the number of people is clearly not enough.

Because of the recent surge in the reputation of the Guardian Group, many scavengers are flocking to it, with some using their life savings just to join.

The sixth settlement originally had a population of five or six thousand, but since the Guardian Group took over, the population has now reached nearly ten thousand.

This huge gathering place is now filled with many unfamiliar faces, all of whom have traveled from afar seeking the food here. After all, the Guardian Group always offers a very wide variety of goods.

Moreover, rumors circulated that the leader of this settlement controlled a grain base with a continuous supply of food, which attracted many people to the area.

"Mu Tong, I feel like we're short-handed. Should we consider adding more guards?"

Wei Lun had already made up his mind. Originally, each battalion had three squads, but now they could expand each battalion by one squad, making each battalion four squads.

As for the management, many guards have worked very hard recently, so the decision-making power can be directly handed over to them, and Weren doesn't need to be involved.

"Expanding the guard? Sure, I've had that idea too, but I don't know if it will put pressure on you, since food is being consumed very quickly these days."

Qin Mutong said with concern, "Although Wei Lun replenishes the warehouse's reserves every time he comes, part of it is used for sales and part for consumption. In reality, each time Wei Lun brings food, it only lasts about ten days, and sometimes only a week."

"It's okay, it's just food, I don't need that, let's just leave it at that."

Wei Lun smiled and said, then pressed the time-travel headset with his hand.

"Attention all personnel, each brigade will be newly established with one squad, which will consist of four squads, each with 20 men."

"The newly added team members will be selected from within the Guardian Group, with each level of management overseeing the process; the rest are up to you."

Wei Lun gave instructions to all management personnel, and everyone received the order, including a large team under Qin Mutong.

The entire Guardian Group mobilized, and soon the news of the expansion of the guard spread throughout the settlement, prompting many to excitedly sign up.
