Zhao Gang strode ahead, killing ghosts in his path and instantly killing any mutated creatures he encountered by having their tentacles pierce through them.

When encountering low-level mutants, they will use their tentacles to pick them up and store them on specially cleared, clean ground.

Zhao Xiaoxiu, holding an axe in one hand and a small hoverboard in the other, jogged after her father.

The hoverboard she was holding this time was something she had redeemed with 1,000 points; it belonged to her.

As a former megacity, Jiangcheng Building Materials Factory not only occupies a large area, but also produces a wide variety of products.

Large items, such as piles of steel on open ground, cannot be touched openly if the authorities want to reclaim them.

However, with such a large quantity, picking out one or two would not attract attention.

As for the small spare parts, with such a small group, even if they took as many as they wanted, without large transport vehicles, they couldn't take much.

With her father leading the way, Zhao Xiaoxiu wasn't worried about encountering any danger. Looking at the "treasure trove" in front of her, she quickly pulled out the supplies list she had written the night before and began her self-service shopping spree.

The roof of their house was leaking, and the father and daughter had initially planned to fill it with asphalt.

Now, the gates of an entire aluminum alloy canopy construction factory warehouse are wide open in front of her; what need is there for asphalt?

Zhao Xiaoxiu excitedly ran into the warehouse, where the steel frames of the awning and the sunshades were neatly arranged and categorized.

"Dad!" Zhao Xiaoxiu shouted.

Zhao Gang immediately appeared behind the cub and acted as a laborer, taking down the materials needed for the rain shelter.

A home needs at least 200 square meters of coverage area, and one square meter of polycarbonate aluminum alloy awning weighs about five kilograms.

The father and daughter took 1,500 kilograms of materials for a 300-square-meter awning.

The small suspension board has a load-bearing capacity of only 500 kilograms, which is fine for daily cargo transportation, but it cannot support a rain canopy at all.

Giving up is out of the question, and the area cannot be reduced any further.

So the father and daughter moved all the necessary items to the open space where the mutated corpses were piled up.

As for how to bring it back, we'll talk about that later.

"There will always be a way," Zhao Xiaoxiu said, clenching her fist and encouraging herself.

Zhao Gang smiled and repeated, "There will be a way."

After moving the awning, the father and daughter discovered a pipe manufacturing plant that had everything from plastic pipes to copper, aluminum, and alloy pipes.

To showcase their pipes, the original manufacturer even created a 300-square-meter usage scenario.

One of the bathroom scenes features a water tower, water pipes, and a showerhead.

They have stood the test of time and are still usable today.

Zhao Gang dismantled the water tower intending to take it home. The father and daughter also found a thousand meters of pipe and placed it on an open ground.

This thing was incredibly useful for their new home, which had practically nothing.

Before returning to the camp after finishing work in the evening, Zhao Gang found a large basket of hardware parts and placed it on the open ground before leading his daughter back home.

Zhao Xiaoxiu spent the entire afternoon cleaning up all the mutants her father had found, producing thirty catties of meat and ten catties of organic ingredients.

This amount isn't enough for the whole team to eat their fill; each person can only have a small portion.

No one took advantage of Zhao Xiaoxiu; those who caught a mutant would exchange it for an entire mutant.

Those who didn't manage to kill the mutant should voluntarily transfer their points to Zhao Gang.

These days, the 528 squadron has been eating meat and drinking soup at every meal, and the nutrient solution hasn't been used for a long time.

There wasn't enough meat today, so everyone reluctantly took out their nutrient solution. They ate a bite of meat followed by a bite of nutrient solution, experiencing both pain and pleasure.

But the thought that they wouldn't be able to enjoy such delicious food every meal after this Jiangcheng mission ended made them all feel down.

Aji was secretly delighted. Zhao Gang was the lord of their B area. If he wanted to eat something good in the future, he could just take the mutated creature to Xiaoxiu and ask her to help him prepare it. It would be a piece of cake.

With their stomachs full, the group looked at the supplies they had found and began discussing how to find a large truck to transport the goods back to the base.

No one objected; everyone agreed, including Mo Shigui and other official military personnel.

The official troops will definitely stay in Jiangcheng for a while, while the mercenaries will probably be able to leave after completing this city cleanup mission.

Mo Shigui and his group planned to entrust Zhao Gang with the collected supplies to take back first, and then privately ask him for them when they returned to the planting area.

Zhao Xiaoxiu tugged at her father's clothes, and Zhao Gang understood immediately, saying, "I can help you transport it back first, but I'll charge you for the shipping."

Mo Shigui and his companions immediately became wary and asked, "How many do you want?"

"I don't want points." Zhao Gang looked at Mo Shigui. "I just want to be the first to choose when the supplies arrive at the supply depot."

Mo Shigui choked, but this was not a difficult situation for him.

But if the other lords found out, he, as the station chief, would probably not be able to continue to live in his territory.

But the other team members, including Aji, were all frantically hinting that he should agree.

Mo Shigui gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, but this is a secret between just the few of us. Don't tell anyone else."

Seeing that Zhao Gang immediately agreed, Mo Shigui finally felt a little better and decided to tell him the news he wanted most.

"Before this mission, I had a friend get a set of home solar energy equipment. It should have arrived by the time you return to your territory. Just give me my name and I'll give the equipment to your home."

However, even if he wanted to give it to other lords, they might not be able to afford the price.

It would be better to tell Zhao Gang in advance and sell him another one, so that we can ask his daughter to help deal with the mutant species later.

Zhao Gang and his daughter exchanged a glance, both seeing the anticipation of returning home in each other's eyes.
