Just then, the sound of something breaking came from the room.
"Jiaqi has woken up!" Canglan quickly stood up.
"Alright then, you go ahead with your work, I'll be going now!" Li Churan tactfully left Canglan's residence.
On his way back, he had already made up his mind.
That's right! He's determined to win Ye Ning back, even if her heart isn't with him anymore, even if she's pregnant with another man's child, he doesn't care.
Li Churan is a very proactive person. Now that he has made his decision, the next step is to develop a concrete plan.
The first priority is to expand one's own power.
He had previously returned from country H. Although Wang Si had supplied him with a lot of supplies, he had also gathered a lot of supplies in the vicinity.
However, the preparation of any particular item is far from sufficient.
And this material is weapons.
Although he had previously brought a lot of weapons from H country, those were all designed for zombies. Now their weapons could barely defend themselves, let alone attack Ye Ning and the others.
He was initially worried about how to acquire a large quantity of weapons.
But just as I was dozing off, someone came over and handed me a pillow; Wang Sicong and the others had actually arrived.
He didn't believe those old foxes would leave the Federation without any preparation.
They've been here for a month now, eating and drinking for free all day long; it's time they made some contributions to the base.
So Li Churan called over Fang Yan, who was specifically in charge of the base's internal affairs.
“Fang Yan, starting tomorrow, Wang Si and all of them will have their treatment halved, just like ordinary A-level citizens of the base,” Li Churan said coldly.
“But…” Fang Yan hesitated. In fact, he had been having a lot of trouble with this group of people lately.
Ever since they found out that Fang Yan was in charge of the internal affairs here, one or two of them have been coming to him all the time, complaining about whether the accommodations or the food were good.
They've almost driven dialects to their breaking point.
Now they want their salaries halved, they're probably going to cause a huge uproar.
"Mr. Li, isn't this a bit inappropriate?" Fang Yan hesitated for a moment before speaking.
“There’s nothing wrong with it! Just do as I say, and if there are any problems, tell them to come directly to me!” Li Churan made the final decision.
Fang Yan had followed Li Churan for so long, so of course she knew that no one could change Li Churan's decisions.
So the next day, he quietly changed Wang Sicong's treatment to be the same as that of ordinary people.
As expected, the group indeed started making a scene.
"What's going on? This is outrageous!"
"Where is Li Churan? We need to find Li Churan!"
Fang Yan was completely overwhelmed by this group of people, but Li Churan had already given all the instructions.
"I'm just following Mr. Li's orders! If you have any objections, go directly to Mr. Li!" Fang Yan said this and went straight back to his room.
Seeing that Fang Yan had already run away, these people went to Li Churan's place, only to find that Li Churan claimed to be sick and refused to come out, leaving them empty-handed once again.
After going through this back and forth several times, they realized that protesting was useless.
They are now like tigers fallen into the plains, bullied by dogs, and have no choice but to compromise.
But which of these people is easy to deal with?
Although a compromise has been made on the surface, the dissatisfaction behind the scenes has grown even stronger.
"I think this Li Churan is clearly trying to intimidate us!" said Secretary-General Feng, who had spoken earlier.
"They actually want us to be treated the same as those ordinary civilians, it's an absolute disgrace!" Material demands are only one aspect, what they find most unacceptable is the loss of their privileges.
"I don't think staying here is a long-term solution. Dean Wang, that son-in-law, is a wolf in sheep's clothing and can't be relied on!" Secretary-General Feng said indignantly.
"Who says otherwise? We have nowhere else to go right now!"
“Who says we have nowhere else to go? City A is so spacious now, we can build our own power base. Why should we be subject to others?” Secretary-General Feng said slowly.
“We need to build our own forces, but we have no resources right now. The conditions outside are so harsh; without weapons and supplies, we simply cannot survive.” As soon as these words were spoken, someone immediately objected.
"Who says we don't have weapons?" Secretary-General Feng had long wanted to build his own power base, but he hadn't found a suitable opportunity to break away from this place. Now this matter was just the right opportunity.
"What? Secretary Feng, do you have a solution?" The others' eyes immediately lit up.
They've been here for so long, and Li Churan has shown no intention of letting them touch power. If there were any other way out now, they would naturally be more than happy to accept it.
Seeing that everyone had taken the bait, Secretary-General Feng explained arrogantly, "Even before I left the Federation for H country, I had a premonition that I would return here sooner or later. So I secretly hid a batch of supplies at the border between A city and E city. There are not only weapons, but also some other emergency supplies, which should be enough for us to develop our power."
"That's wonderful! Where are all these supplies? When can we go and get them?"
"Secretary-General Feng, you were so prescient! You foresaw this day long ago!"
"Now it's great! We can finally leave this awful place. To be honest, I've disliked that Li Churan for a long time. He's just a junior, yet he dares to boss us around. He doesn't understand the concept of respect for elders and juniors at all. He just needs to be taught a lesson!"
