September 1st, the 80th day of the apocalypse.
Early in the morning, 50,000 people dispersed and arrived at the center of the square to be teleported.
After Fang Xiyue cheered everyone on, the teleportation officially began.
Public teleportation programs can also perform mass teleportation for tens of thousands of people, so the speed is very fast.
In less than 10 minutes, all 50,000 people were teleported away.
Fang Xiyue and Zhu Guangyuan then headed to the surrounding rural areas.
“If we don’t plant, no crops will grow on this land.”
All the plants we planted before died. You can go to the field and see for yourself; they've all turned black.
When Fang Xiyue and her group arrived, they witnessed a minor conflict between the villagers and the staff who had come to spread the word.
“I know, but our city lord has provided improved seeds, so they can be planted even in this kind of soil.”
Do you really want the land to remain barren like this? Do you really want to just sit around and live off our savings forever?
If we don't farm, where will we get our raw materials? The biscuits, bread, and instant noodles we collect will eventually run out.
Do we really want to wait until then and starve to death?
The staff tried their best to persuade them, but it was clear that no one was buying it; in their view, it was all in vain and a waste of effort.
Zhu Guangyuan glanced at Fang Xiyue somewhat awkwardly. He thought this task would be easy to complete, but he didn't expect to be opposed by the villagers.
Fang Xiyue flew in front of the villagers, immediately attracting everyone's attention.
“I know your concerns. In that case, why don’t you sell the land to me and I’ll hire you to farm it?”
Whether or not crops are grown, I will still pay you wages.
Fang Xiyue offered her solution: time waits for no one, so why waste so much time persuading the villagers to plant?
Why not just buy the land and hire them to farm it? After all, the villagers only want tangible benefits.
They didn't want to go through all that trouble only to get nothing in return; they figured they'd rather use that time to find work in the city or go out and kill zombies.
The young people in their village have also formed a survivor squad, and they can bring back a lot of crystal cores every day. They don't have to worry about food and drink, so it doesn't matter whether they farm or not.
Supermarkets in the city sell rice, flour, vegetables, and fruits, but people might not dare to eat what they grow themselves.
"That's fine, as long as we don't have to bear the risks ourselves!"
Once the first person agreed, another person followed suit, and finally, the two sides began to discuss the price of the land.
I originally thought that some people would disagree with the reasonable price offered by the staff and want more, but surprisingly, no one came forward to cause trouble.
It seems they are truly disappointed with this land, believing that nothing can be grown here.
In the end, the villagers sold the land to Fang Xiyue and then signed an employment contract with her.
Seeing the satisfied smiles on everyone's faces, Fang Xiyue thought they would definitely regret it once the crops grew.
But there's no going back, and regret is useless.
Of course, while some people sell, others don't. In this village, 15 households chose to grow the seeds themselves, paying for them with crystal coins.
Fang Xiyue gave them a thumbs up in her heart, thinking that they would definitely make money in the future.
In the village, some landowners have turned into zombies, so those lands are now directly owned by the government, and people are hired to cultivate them.
With the success of this village, Zhu Guangyuan sent people to other villages to learn from it, and soon the six villages around Licheng officially started planting.
For now, we're only growing vegetables; other crops will be planted next spring.
Actually, it might be faster to have people with superpowers do the planting, but Fang Xiyue didn't want ordinary survivors to just sit around doing nothing.
Therefore, it's better for people with superpowers to go out and do missions, while ordinary people should stay in the city or village and do what they can.
This way, people won't feel too bored, or even feel useless, and they won't just wait for others to take care of them.
——
September 7th, the 86th day of the apocalypse.
At 8 p.m., the team that went out to provide support returned triumphantly, after a full 7 days.
They drove the zombies out of the five cities, and also killed many zombies in the process.
They also helped build high walls, with two walls, one for the inner area and one for the outer area, providing double protection.
The local army and survivor squads could handle the rest of the area, so everyone returned.
Fang Xiyue hosted a banquet for them, and the square was brightly lit, bustling with noise and joy.
Some people even volunteered to perform, singing, dancing, and telling jokes. I have to say, it brings back some fond memories.
"Sister Yue, something terrible has happened! Your five husbands have gotten into a fight, and when I got here, they were all bleeding!"
Fang Xiyue was engrossed in watching the performance and didn't even notice when her husbands left.
Seeing Dandan running over breathlessly, and hearing her say that the five of them had gotten into a fight, I quickly followed her.
Then……
The lush green lawn was filled with flowers and balloons, and a large heart was made of flower petals in the center.
Five men in black suits stood under the lights, each holding a bouquet of flowers, and they smiled at Fang Xiyue.
Her family, her five husbands' families, and friends from both sides were all around the lawn.
Fang Xiyue's heart was pounding, and then Zuo Yu and Dandan pushed her to the center of the heart shape, one on each side.
The five men handed the flowers to Fang Xiyue. Because there were so many people, their bouquets were all small, which was just right for Fang Xiyue to hold.
Then Fang Xiyue watched as they knelt down on one knee in unison, holding up their custom-made, one-of-a-kind rings.
Su Zheyu: "Yueyue, the happiest thing in my life is falling in love with you, and my biggest wish is to be happy with you for the rest of my life. Will you marry me?"
Jun Nanxuan: "Yueyue, the days I've spent in love with you have been the happiest days of my life. I want to continue this happiness, so will you marry me?"
Ye Ziming: "Yueyue, you're in my dreams, you're in my heart. I want to hold your hand and walk through the long road of life together. Let's get married!"
Song Yifan: "Yueyue, marrying me is the best choice you'll ever make. I will give you a happy family, a warm embrace, and a romantic life. Marry me!"
Chu Xingyan: "You are the first and only girl who has ever made my heart flutter. Being with you, I have gradually come to understand what love and happiness are. I don't want to have any regrets, so marry me!"
For a moment, Fang Xiyue felt disoriented, as if she were in a dream.
With friends and family cheering her on, Fang Xiyue felt that everything was so wonderful.
"I do!"
Fang Xiyue nodded and said, "I do."
Then the five men stood up and put the rings on Fang Xiyue's finger. The rings were specially made; the five rings could be combined to form one ring.
The people around cheered and set off fireworks. Dandan and Zuoshu recorded the whole thing with cameras.
