Chapter 40 Finding a Job in the Apocalypse
Upon hearing this, Ji Zai's eyes widened.
She exclaimed incredulously, "You three cousins, all of you went to work as chefs? Goodness, is your family's business a family heirloom?"
Upon hearing this...
Qing Shuang, who was awake, remained silent with Man Man for a while.
Then I wiped away a handful of bitter sweat.
Qing Shuang said, "Actually, all three of us own restaurants. Since we're all on the same street, they hit it off and decided to form a partnership between the three restaurants, which resulted in us."
After hearing this, Ji Zai stood there, stunned.
She never expected this.
It's unbelievable that such bizarre things exist in the world.
Three generations of enemies.
Did they actually turn enemies into friends and arrange a marriage?
The terrifying system of hereditary clans.
If these three restaurants stop operating, will everyone on the street still be able to eat?
Su Dan finally understood that the one who fainted was going to feed the two of them blood. What a family member!
She wiped the sweat from her brow. "Leader, the people inside need to rest. Leaving them like this isn't good for them."
Because of the dormitory conditions, many people can only squat.
Hugging her legs, she huddled in the corner.
This is bad for your health.
Ji Zai thought for a moment, "Ideally, the new batteries we add can free up two more dorm rooms."
"If you don't mind, the chemistry lab and the two food warehouses are also acceptable."
There are a total of 8 rooms.
"That's 13 people in one dormitory, that's the limit."
Hearing this, Su Dan nodded, "Pretty much. It would be good enough to have a place to sleep, since resources are limited."
Ji Zai nodded, then glanced at the people who were awake, "Those who are awake, move your beds to the dormitories next door, number 9 or 10, as well as the grain warehouse and the chemistry lab."
"The people who move to the grain warehouse will be responsible for moving all the grain in the building."
"The people who moved to the chemistry lab are responsible for looking after the chemicals inside and assisting us in finding the corresponding chemical drugs."
"The people staying in the dormitories on the third floor are those in dormitories 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10. Those in dormitories 6 and 7 will help Zhao Chenchen patrol, those in dormitories 8 will help Ouyang Yi manage the dormitory affairs, and those in dormitories 9 and 10 haven't been decided yet. You can lend a hand for now and see what the people in the dormitories need. Anyway, you won't be idle."
"Those who wake up first have the right to choose. Which dormitory do you want to go to? Go and register with the president."
"Those who register indicate that they agree to become our temporary members. We will provide you with a portion of the food in advance so that you can survive as long as possible."
"Those who disagree are free to leave; I will not force them."
After Ji Zai finished speaking, everyone in the dormitory fell silent.
Holy crap.
They can stay.
There's such a good thing.
Not only can you stay, but you can also eat your fill, drink your water, and enjoy air conditioning. What kind of paradise is this?
For a moment, Qing Shuang felt as if she had seen an angel.
Wow, that's impressive.
Let alone thirteen people sharing one room.
Even if it's just maintaining the status quo, as long as she can survive, she's willing to do it.
After all, in this weather, going out is practically suicide.
Seeing this, Ji Zai nodded, "Then you can think of where you want to go yourselves. My husband declares that, given the special nature of food and chemical laboratories, I must declare that all our items are registered. If anything is found to be missing or gone, you know the consequences."
Upon hearing this, everyone turned pale.
If the supply is really less or gone, will we be kicked out?
It's the end of the world.
It's really possible.
Having experienced the horrors of the apocalypse, no one dares to gamble on Ji Zai's goodwill at this time. After all, they had died once before and realized that their lives were not actually that important.
Here, nobody cares whether you live or die.
Therefore, to survive, one can only try one's best to prove one's worth and give oneself a chance to catch one's breath.
Full of fear, she clung to Qing Shuang.
She couldn't imagine it.
If I could go back to that hell again.
How desperate they must be.
It's highly likely that there won't be a second Ji Zai to save them.
After Ji Zai finished speaking, he left.
Seeing that they were awake, Su Dan said, "Why aren't you going yet?"
Because of Yang Le, Qing Shuang and Man Man were in the best condition, so they woke up very quickly.
The two looked at each other and shook their heads.
Qing Shuang said, "I'll go after Yang Le wakes up."
Manman nodded.
Su Dan understood, "Her? She's lucky, her condition is relatively stable, but she's probably the slowest one."
Then silence returned.
Qingshuang helped feed the unconscious person ice water and porridge.
While taking care of the others, Manman asked in a low voice, "Hey Su Dan, why do you guys call Ji Zai the Alliance Leader?"
"And you all seem to listen to her a lot?"
Upon hearing this, Su Dan paused for a moment, then said, "You'd better really not have any bad intentions, otherwise, no one can save you."
Manman was startled by these words. "What's wrong?"
Do you know why we're doing so well?
Of course, Manman didn't know.
Su Dan chuckled, "That's because of the alliance leader. She led a few subordinates and slaughtered zombies all the way before finally bringing back the food."
"We were able to work for her because she needed subordinates, so we applied for the jobs."
"We know nothing about what she does outside, and we don't ask too many questions. After all, it's for our own good. There are some things we'd better not get involved in."
"Otherwise, it will be an endless hell."
Su Dan's words directly provoked Manman.
She was trembling with fear.
The author automatically imagined Ji Zai as a ruthless being who would kill zombies at the drop of a hat.
I was so scared my face turned white.
Seeing that he had successfully fooled her, Su Dan nodded in satisfaction. "But don't worry, the boss is still very good to us. As long as we don't break the rules, she doesn't bother with us. Work hard, and who knows, one day you might become a full-time employee and know our true identities."
Actually, it's all a hoax to fool them.
This group is not the original team.
I don't know if it's good or bad.
If we don't take drastic measures, things might get out of hand, since he's just a temporary worker.
It's better not to reveal the details.
Otherwise, it will be difficult to manage.
After convincing Manman, Su Dan left humming a song.
Only the elderly, weak, sick, and disabled were left behind.
Soon, thanks to the careful care, many people regained their strength and woke up at night.
They looked around at their familiar surroundings.
I feel somewhat lost.
Qing Shuang woke up the earliest, so she relayed what was recorded in the annals.
Soon, those people had chosen their destination.
Ouyang Yi's dormitory is 302. She registered their information and majors one by one. "Most of them want to go to the grain warehouse. It seems they are really starving."
Nan Yao munched on some snacks and said, "Go ahead. We'd be happy to have someone help us guard the grain. As long as there's enough grain, we'll let them have their way."
Ouyang Yi distributed some of the pots she had looted to them.
Soon, the beds in the two warehouses were assigned.
However, their beds were bunk beds, which were difficult to separate, so they simply left them as they were, taking a straw mat and lying down on the spot, then putting it away during the day.
To avoid them arguing about the bed.
Ouyang Yi simply posted a notice: two beds per room, first come, first served.
Now there's no chance of an argument.
As everyone knows, school beds are small and cramped; one person can barely fit on them, let alone two.
Sleeping is torture no matter how I try.
Well, although it's great that we don't have to live in a dormitory with 35 people in one room, the living conditions for these temporary workers are still terrible.
It looks so crowded.
However, the temporary workers showed absolutely no sign of disdain.
I just feel really lucky.
They're such scum, yet they still have bosses who want them and pay them on time. They're bringing honor to their families.
Mom and Dad, they found jobs in the apocalypse.
