"Boss, there are more than 200 people at the base. Are we going to move them all there? There's nowhere for them to live."

Qin Jiayou inquired, "After the base was expanded, the guard now numbers 150, plus some workers and the guard's relatives and friends."

Qin Jiayou didn't quite understand the relocation. The base was just starting to develop, and relocating at this time would inevitably bring new difficulties.

“I suggest sending a small group of guards over this time, and then one of us can stay at the settlement.”

Du Kun suggested that he was also reluctant to go to the settlement, since all his research equipment was at the base, and moving it there might damage the precision instruments.

"Actually, I think it's better to develop in a settlement area, since the base is too small."

Fu Xixi agreed to the plan to relocate the base, but she still had some doubts. After all, the download base had production lines and factories, and blindly moving it there would be a waste of the base.

"You have no say in this matter; you must listen to the boss!"

Zeng Guangtian remarked from the side, "Clearly, Zeng Guangtian is at the forefront, hoping to carve out a new path for himself in the Sixth Settlement."

"Actually, I think we can develop along two lines this time, one for the base and one for the gathering place, which won't conflict with each other."

Zhu Guanjun thought for a moment and said that he neither opposed nor agreed to the relocation to the settlement; he remained neutral.

"Don't you guys think about the future? Wei Lun is considering the future development of the base!"

Qin Mutong grumbled from the side, "How can everyone be so short-sighted? Wei Lun is planning for the future; of course he needs to step out of the base and face the world!"

There is still much outside that is completely unfamiliar to most people, and there are many things worth exploring.

"Alright, stop arguing."

Wei Lun tapped the table and spoke, and the entire hall instantly fell silent.

"Lin Xinyue, come sit down here too, don't just stand there like an idiot!"

Wei Lun smiled and said that inviting Lin Xinyue to sit with them was an immense honor, signifying that Lin Xinyue would soon be part of the management team.

“After some consideration, I’ve decided that Fu Xixi will be in charge of production, Qin Jiayou will be in charge of management, Du Kun will be in charge of research, and Lin Xinyue will be in charge of liaison. The four of you will stay at the base, and the rest of you will come with me to the settlement.”

Wei Lun made the decision immediately. As for the base, it might end up as a production and research center.

Future development must begin in key areas, radiating outwards to urban areas, then across the entire country; its journey extends to the stars and the sea.

"Now let's vote by raising hands. Those who agree with my proposal, please raise your hands."

Wei Lun said that he wasn't a fan of dictatorships either, and everyone's thoughts... thoughts...

Haha, everyone raised their hands! Goodness, Wei Lun was incredibly embarrassed. I didn't force you, why did you all raise your hands so unanimously?

"Boss, you've hit the nail on the head. We didn't raise our hands just to flatter you; we all agree with your arrangement."

Du Kun said with a grin that he just loves doing research. Although he doesn't know what kind of machines he tinkers with every day, his inventions may be useless in the apocalypse, but they are very important in the modern world.

"Boss, am I not going with you? I'm worried that Zeng Guangtian might act impulsively and do something wrong."

Qin Jiayou joked that although he and Zeng Guangtian had a good relationship, Zeng Guangtian was still not as good as Qin Jiayou at serving the boss.

"Old Qin, who said I was impulsive and ruined things? I think you're just jealous because you couldn't come with us!"

Zeng Guangtian's face was flushed with anger, as if Qin Jiayou's words had severely damaged his self-esteem.

Although Zeng Guangtian accompanied Wei Lun this time, Wei Lun also had Qin Mutong by his side to take care of him. Taking care of others is definitely something women excel at.

"Will the base primarily function as a production base in the future?"

At this point, Qin Mutong asked the crucial question: the base was originally everyone's home, the place where everyone lived.

However, after Wei Lun moved to the settlement, the base became a place with only factory buildings for production. Wouldn't the base be reduced to an equipment manufacturing plant?

"That's one way to understand it, since we need to expand outwards."

Wei Lun nodded, not denying the idea. He understood that staying cooped up in the base wasn't a long-term solution; in the apocalypse, it was crucial to rapidly increase one's strength.

The weak are always oppressed in the apocalypse, even if the base has the ability to protect itself.

In the event of heavy weaponry or large-scale military operations, the base would be nothing more than a shell to them.

This concern is not unfounded. Everyone knows that in this chaotic world, everyone is developing their own territory and power. If one day someone targets them, the base will be like a fish on a chopping board, at the mercy of others.

"In my opinion, the boss will come back in the future; he's not going to stay in the community forever."

Du Kun looked at the boss and said with a smile, "Many bosses have expressed interest in my research, so I'm sure they'll come back to visit regularly in the future."

"I feel that splitting the team in two is quite unsafe. Boss, how many people are you taking this time?"

Qin Jiayou seemed a little uneasy. Although the sixth settlement was safe, it wouldn't be good to be alone.

“I don’t plan to bring people there, and bringing so many people doesn’t necessarily make it much safer. The settlement has its own defense system.”

Wei Lun said casually, "I'll definitely regret this decision later, but for now, the settlement is guarded and has rules, so there shouldn't be any danger inside."

In addition, the post-apocalyptic world has strict regulations, including how many weapons one carries, where one lives, how much food one is provided for each day, and who one is related to. No one can escape these records in the settlement's management files.

When everyone heard that their boss wasn't planning to bring soldiers, they all began to feel uneasy.

Although the security in the Sixth Gathering Area has always been very good, it cannot be ruled out that if a conflict breaks out and there is no one around, what will happen to the boss's safety?

"With a few of us here, what are you afraid of? We also have time-space communication headsets. If there's any danger, you can just come over, right?"

Zhu Guanjun explained that everyone then realized that the base was only half an hour away from the gathering place, and with the hyperspace communication headset, they could be notified immediately if any danger occurred.

Only after Zhu Guanjun said that did everyone feel somewhat relieved.

Wei Lun patted Zhu Guanjun on the shoulder and continued to speak to everyone, "I will work hard to bring everyone together again in the future!"

Wei Lun would never deny this; his dream was to own a vast territory, not to cower and eke out a living in a small place.

Even with all the money in the world, Wei Lun's goal in the apocalypse remained unchanged: to conquer an empire and give Qin Mutong a happy home.
