Chapter 16 Chapter 16 My sister is a good person, do you want to...
"These two are still children, yet they are so sensible."
"Yes, they are both pitiful. They watched their parents being killed by zombies and struggled to make a living alone in this apocalyptic world. Later, they met me and started to work together. If it weren't for them, I would not be able to take care of so many children. They helped me so much." Fang Qing looked at the children happily eating delicious food, her eyes full of smiles.
"You are rare, and it's not easy for you." In this end times, it is difficult for ordinary people to persevere with so many children.
"At first, I saw Xiaoxiao crying beside her parents' bodies on the road. I couldn't bear it, so I took her in. Later, I met Zhuangzhuang on the road. I thought that taking care of one child would also be raising two, so I kept him with him. Gradually, I took in more and more children."
At this point, Fang Qing seemed to have thought of something. Her expression froze for a moment before returning to normal. "I finally managed to get these children to a large base. At first, there were plenty of supplies, and everyone could stay there for free. But then they started to charge the adults for some of their supplies, and eventually even the children, who couldn't survive, had to hand over supplies."
"We barely managed to stay in the base for a few months, but when we couldn't afford it anymore, we left and went to the outskirts. People outside saw me as a woman with a group of children, and I had no sense of intimidation. We were always the first targets to be robbed. That period was a nightmare."
Fang Qing looked at Su Qing, "But now everything is fine. Not only did you save me, but you also gave us hope for life again. I'm very grateful to you. Seriously, if you have anything to say, just tell me, regardless of life or death."
"Okay, we will only get better in the future. You should go and have dinner soon." Su Qing raised his hand and patted Fang Qing's shoulder.
After Su Qing finished chatting, he saw Lu Chen standing in the corner. He was looking at the children who were laughing and eating, with a thoughtful look on his face.
"What are you thinking about?" Su Qing walked over.
"Nothing." Lu Chen looked away.
Su Qing remembered that she wanted to ask him about the cooperation, so she said, "By the way, when will our cooperation start? I need money now."
"Bulk purchases may have to wait a few days, but I can give you a deposit now." Lu Chen thought about it and realized that his deployment was almost completed, but it would probably take a few more days to completely solve the problem of those things in the base.
"It's not that urgent. Let's talk about it after you confirm the time."
"Sister Su Qing, we're done eating, come and have your meal." A little kid came over and held Su Qing's hand.
A few more children came over and surrounded Su Qing and the other two. "Yes, yes, come and eat. The food here is delicious. And this big brother, is this your boyfriend?"
Phew... cough cough... "No, no! This is not my sister's boyfriend! I'm still single!" Su Qing was shocked and hurriedly explained.
"This big brother is so handsome, sister, don't miss the opportunity."
Do children nowadays know so much?
"Big brother, our sister is a very good person. Would you like to consider it?" A little kid walked up to Lu Chen, tried to raise his head and looked at Lu Chen seriously.
"Oh? Really?" Lu Chen looked at Su Qing with a hint of amusement.
"Wow! What do you kids know? Stop talking nonsense!" Li Xing came over, patted the children on the head, and led them away. After just a few steps, he turned back and said, "Big brother, you really can think about this."
"What nonsense are you talking about! Little brat!"
Su Qing raised his hand and was about to hit Li Xing, but Li Xing dodged and walked away with a smile.
"It's just nonsense from a child, you don't need to pay attention to it."
"Well, I didn't take it seriously." Lu Chen said lightly.
After dinner, Su Qing said goodbye to Fang Qing. "I'm going back now. I don't usually live at the base. This map shows where I live. If you need anything, you can come find me."
Su Qing and Lu Chen drove back to the courtyard. Fuguier, who had been staying at home alone for a whole day, rushed over with a cry and howled at Su Qing.
"I'll take you to play with the other kids tomorrow. Be a good boy." Su Qing patted Fuguier's head.
"Host, the system is about to inform you of important information!"
Huh? Important information?
"I'm a little tired, I'll go back to the room first." Su Qing greeted Lu Chen and walked quickly back to the room.
"Yeah." Lu Chen nodded.
Walking back into the house, Su Qing changed into home clothes and sat on the bed.
"System, what is the important information?"
"Since the host has successfully recruited members to join the base, the base function is now enabled. Please check it out."
Looking at the newly lit base icon, Su Qing clicked on it.
The information of Fang Qing and her group appeared on the page. Behind their names was a level of trust in the base. Currently, Fang Qing was at the top with a trust level of 55%, followed by Li Xing, Wang Tianqi and the children, all at 40%.
“What is this level of trust?”
"It can help the host distinguish between good and bad attitudes towards the base. If there are less than 10% of people who have malicious intentions towards the base, the system will automatically identify and alert the host so that the host can take precautions early."
This function is good and can distinguish between good and bad, which is very useful for managing the base.
"The base can activate the identification function. Non-base personnel or unauthorized personnel cannot enter the base. If they want to enter, they need authorization from the base management."
This is great. She was originally worried that although the base has a protective shield that can isolate the threat of zombies, it cannot isolate people. They are now seriously lacking in combat effectiveness. If someone wants to attack the base, it will be difficult for them to resist. With this identification function, all potential dangers will be completely solved.
Su Qing immediately turned on the identification function, authorized the people in the base, and also authorized Lu Chen.
"Host, you can plan planting areas, breeding areas, build apartments, high-rise residential buildings, etc. at the base. Please work hard to plan the base and make it stronger."
"But I don't have that much material to build." Did the black-hearted system not know her financial situation? Any building would require a huge amount of building materials, which she couldn't possibly collect.
"Host, you can first establish a mission center, issue missions, and pay a certain amount of money to let the base members help you collect supplies."
Mission Center? Su Qing clicked on the building page, and sure enough, there was a mission center icon at the front that was lit up and ready to be built.
She clicked on the icon, and a base floor plan appeared. Su Qing looked at it and placed the mission center on an open space on the left side of the base.
"Congratulations to the host for successfully building the mission center. 500 gold coins are awarded, which will be automatically deducted by the system."
At this moment in the base, Fang Qing was playing with the children in the open space. Suddenly, there was a sound beside them. A white cloth suddenly appeared out of thin air in the open space next to them, and something seemed to be covered inside. After a few seconds, the white cloth disappeared, and a wooden house similar in style to a restaurant appeared in front of them.
This scene frightened them a little, so she quickly asked Wang Tianqi to take the children back to the house, while she and Li Xing took out knives and sticks and walked over slowly.
They observed from outside for a while, then Fang Qing called out, "Is anyone inside?"
After waiting for a long time without any response, Fang Qing glanced at Li Xing, and the two of them walked forward cautiously and opened the door.
There were several machines standing on both sides of the wooden house, and a large black screen standing against the wall in front.
The two of them looked at and studied it for a long time, but they still had no idea what this wooden house that appeared out of nowhere was used for or how it appeared.
"Sister Fang Qing, are there aliens here?" Li Xing said to Fang Qing while looking at these things that looked very high-tech.
"Nonsense, where did the aliens come from?"
"Then how did this house appear out of nowhere?"
"When Miss Su comes tomorrow, ask her. After all, this is her base."
"So Miss Su is an alien?"
"Ahem..." Fang Qing choked on Li Xing's words and patted his head. "What are you thinking about all day long in that little head of yours? How could Miss Su be an alien?"
Li Xing rubbed his head, frowning, "Sister Fang Qing, do you have any reasonable explanation?"
Fang Qing was also full of doubts, but she absolutely did not believe in the idea of aliens. "Let's go back first and talk about it tomorrow."
Su Qing didn't know how much confusion the mission center she casually built had caused Fang Qing and the others.
At this point, she had a general understanding of the basic operations of the base. In fact, it was similar to the family gangs in online games, and it was easy to understand.
Currently, the base has limited personnel and she doesn't have any tasks to issue. It seems that she can only wait until later to recruit more people so that everyone can help search for building materials.
Seeing that nothing was wrong, Su Qing closed the page and walked out, inviting Fuguier to eat. "Eat more. You'll need to play with the kids tomorrow."
She saw yesterday that everyone liked playing with Fuguier. In order to help the child adapt to the new environment, Su Qing planned to ask Fuguier to work harder and play with the other children more to reduce his unfamiliarity with the new environment.
She raised the dog for many days and used it for a while, so it was worth it for her to feed it so much food on a daily basis.
"Awoo~" Fuguier expressed his acceptance. Although children were a bit troublesome, it was barely acceptable as long as the king could have fun.
Su Qing thought about the children's lack of nutrition, so he opened the restaurant page, made some bottled milk and boiled eggs, put them all on the shelf, and set the amount to zero yuan.
She plans to provide each child with a bottle of milk and an egg for free every day to supplement their nutrition.
After finishing all this, Su Qing had to go to the base early tomorrow to discuss the matter of milk and eggs with Fang Qing, and then he went to bed early.
Before going to bed, I thought, it would be great if I had a communication device. It’s so troublesome to send a message like this now.
Ah! I miss the days when I could travel the world with just one phone. I really want to watch some short videos and catch up on TV series!!!
"System, don't we have any communication equipment?"
“Not currently supported.”
Wow? Does that mean there's going to be drama in the future?
