Besides those with superpowers and young adults, Gong Yunxiao also intended to recruit the survivors who flooded in.
They can handle logistical work; as long as they dare to come, Gong Yunxiao will accept them.
"Okay, brother, I'll arrange it right away."
Assistant Qi's lips twitched; there were at least 2,000, if not 3,000, of the survivors surging over.
Including the survivors in the residential building, my cousin is planning to expand the team to 10,000 people in a short period of time!
No wonder he's the CEO of a listed company! He can always stay at the top of the pyramid.
"Yes, also tell my uncle and aunt to stay on the top floor and not go downstairs unnecessarily. Tell them to keep absorbing the jade!"
Gong Yunxiao's expression was very calm. He had discovered the energy in the jade by chance, so he immediately collected all the jade he could find in Water City.
Of course, they might have missed out on some smaller shops, but that doesn't matter; we can't leave no opportunities for others.
Most importantly, the jade mine in Shuicheng is now in his hands. After discovering the secret of the jade, he immediately led his men to take over the jade mine.
In the post-apocalyptic water city, the default rule is that whoever conquers the land owns it; only office buildings and residential buildings are subject to the property ownership certificate.
Of course, he didn't tell anyone the secret of the jade. Shui Cheng guessed that no one except him knew that the jade could upgrade superpowers.
He wasn't keeping quiet; he just wanted to wait until his family and close associates were promoted before speaking out, which would also protect his assets to the greatest extent possible.
If anyone wants jade, they can exchange it for other goods.
Afterwards, he transported away a batch of jade and sent trusted confidants to guard the place.
I wonder what the situation is like there now. Once someone discovers the secret of the jade, the jade mine will inevitably become a place that everyone is vying for.
People who want to steal are capable of anything, so he originally planned to transport another batch of jade back, but then the flood came.
If he had spatial abilities, he would have already collected all the supplies and kept them under his own control.
In the end times, people's hearts are fickle, and the most trustworthy person is oneself.
We don't know the situation at the jade mine after the flood, or whether there were any casualties.
He wants the jade, but not at the cost of sacrificing his confidants.
Of course, some people might think that his confidants might betray him and seize the jade.
If that were the case, then Gong Yunxiao's 26 years would have been wasted. The reason why his confidants trusted him was because they would always believe in Gong Yunxiao's abilities.
Whether before or after the apocalypse, Gong Yunxiao was able to lead them to the top.
To put it simply, there are still vested interests involved.
Gong Yunxiao is currently at the peak of level one in the Corrosion system and will soon be promoted to level two.
A few days ago, after the zombies evolved crystal cores, some people chose to absorb them, but he strictly stipulated that the Xiaoyun Squad was not allowed to absorb crystal cores on their own, otherwise they would be expelled from the team.
He didn't want to monopolize it, but he felt that the things produced by zombies might not be friendly to humans.
Once he issued this notice, many factions that had a good relationship with him or that had been watching him stopped allowing their members to absorb crystal cores.
It must be said that this move saved many people from the risk of becoming superpowered zombies, and can be considered as saving the survivors of Water City.
This flood was probably a disaster caused by the large number of survivors in the water city.
"Yueyue, the building over there is on a high elevation. The floodwaters haven't even reached halfway up their steps yet. Let's get the survivors there first."
Su Zheyu and Fang Xiyue were working hard to save people when Su Zheyu spotted the towering building at a glance.
The person who built this building was truly prescient; this place is a sanctuary for the end times!
"good."
The two began transporting the survivors over there. Of course, in order not to disturb the people inside the building, Fang Xiyue confined the survivors to the steps of the building.
We'll take them all away after we've rescued all the survivors here.
"There are so many people flying outside! I thought I was dead and that's why I saw angels!"
"Me too, me too, but when I looked back, I was still in Water City."
Gong Yunxiao heard the commotion outside and went to the window, just as Fang Xiyue flew by.
Gong Yunxiao and Fang Xiyue's hearts skipped a beat at the same time, but Fang Xiyue flew too fast and disappeared right before Gong Yunxiao's eyes.
A sense of regret welled up in Gong Yunxiao's heart. He pressed his right hand against the glass and stared at it, his heart unable to calm down for a long time.
He didn't get a clear look at the girl who had just flown by, but he remembered her figure.
Fang Xiyue flew over and immediately turned back; she had already understood the message her heart had given her.
She flew back and landed directly opposite Gong Yunxiao, the two looking at each other through the window.
Fang Xiyue reached out and placed her hand on Gong Yunxiao's right hand, then smiled at him.
However, she didn't linger. She still had people to save, so Fang Xiyue spread her wings and flew away again.
Anyway, Gong Yunxiao is right here, so I can come find him later.
Gong Yunxiao watched Fang Xiyue's departing figure and a slight smile appeared on his face.
This girl actually showed up!
He turned around, opened the drawer of his desk, took out the marriage certificate, and opened it.
Fang Xiyue's name and wedding photo clearly told Gong Yunxiao that he was not mistaken; the girl outside was indeed his wife.
When he first got the marriage certificate, he thought it was another scheme orchestrated by some woman trying to climb the social ladder.
He went directly to the Civil Affairs Bureau to check, and it turned out that they were indeed married.
