Qiao Xuejun looked at the time. The clock hanging on the wall in the duty room showed that it was 3pm.
Now the daylight hours are very short, from 11 am to 5 pm.
At 6 o'clock in the afternoon, it would be as dark as late at night, and she wanted to block Zhao Xian here.
In fact, Qiao Xuejun had some confidence in her mind. After all, Zhao Xian had expressed his need for her planting technology before, and it all came down to the issue of food. She could solve this problem, so she felt that she still had bargaining chips to talk about it.
As for Deputy Wu's attitude, who cares about his attitude? He cannot represent Zhao Xian.
But Qiao Xuejun waited for a long time but no one came. She sat there for two hours but no one came back.
Wu Haifan came over from the duty room next door and reminded, "It's getting dark. If you don't leave, those things outside will eat you."
Qiao Xuejun didn't change her posture: "Thanks for the reminder, don't worry about it."
She brought a flashlight and pine cones. Although some seafood prefer light, they are afraid of fire. The fire of pine cones lasts long. She had prepared it before she came out.
Seeing that she didn't listen, Wu Haifan frowned and looked at her for a while, then turned and left.
The captain is about to come back at this time. How can this woman not leave after being rejected by the captain himself?

After 5 o'clock, that is, in the evening, the base gradually became lively, and those who went out to collect items had already returned.
There are a lot of people in the first base. Although Hongmei Mountain is short, it covers a large area and is almost the largest mountain in this area. The base built inside this mountain is very large. It is said to have three floors and the fourth floor is still under construction.
The first floor alone looks like an airport, very wide and flat, but the floor height is only about three meters.
It was fine during the day, but at night, when people who went out came back, the base became noisy and bustling with people coming and going. Some went out to pick up good things, some collected firewood, but more people brought back the products of mutant marine creatures.
For example, the shed skin of sea snakes, the broken legs of crabs, the remains of shells, and the teeth of sharks.
There are only a few people who confront the mutant marine creatures head-on, and most of them just quietly pick up the mutant creatures' drops.
Qiao Xuejun sat there for another half an hour. Suddenly, the outside became quiet, and then suddenly lively. The sound of people discussing reached Qiao Xuejun's ears.
"Wow, what are these? Another sea shark. How was it killed? One sea shark was ten meters long."
"We've brought it all back. This should be edible, right? I can't believe how long we can eat it."
"Hey, these things are terrible. But in this period, everything is fine as long as we don't starve to death. How long has it been since we last had normal food?"
"You wouldn't eat normal food even if you had it. You should save it and go to the second floor to exchange for better food, right?"
"Goddess, this shark is so big. How did it kill it? There should be a large amount of blue oil in its belly, right?"
"The base troops are too capable. They can kill him. Are they going to take him to the oil refinery?"
After hearing this, Qiao Xuejun stood up from her seat immediately. Zhao Xian is back?
Qiao Xuejun walked to the door of the waiting room and looked outside.
She saw Zhao Xian at first sight.
There was no way, Zhao Xian was really conspicuous, even among a group of tall men from the military, he was still tall and outstanding. He moved in a dashing manner, and the black goggles and mask decorated him neatly, and his momentum was very majestic.
At this moment, he entered the base, reached out and pulled off his mask, took off his goggles, and put them into the pocket of his tactical vest.
His sharp eyes and brows were revealed, his expression was serious. His body was covered in blue blood, which exuded a murderous smell of blood. He led a team of people forward step by step steadily but quickly, with an intimidating momentum.
He brought his men, who were pushing military carts to transport the shark carcasses inside.
Above is a shark's head.
One car can only carry one head, so a shark that is ten meters long would probably require dozens of cars to transport.
Zhao Xian was walking in front, turning his head and explaining something to his deputy.
Ren Wangwang beside him nodded.
Qiao Xuejun stood there without moving, planning to wait until Zhao Xian was done with his work before going up to discuss the transaction.
At this moment, Zhao Xian also saw her. There was a hint of surprise in his eyes, and his steps slowed down slightly, and his words paused for a moment.
After just one glance, Zhao Xian continued to speed up and walked forward, continuing to explain something to his deputy Ren Wangwang, and missed Qiao Xuejun.
Knowing that Zhao Xian was busy, Qiao Xuejun went back to the waiting room and sat down.
She thought she would have to wait for a while, but after only 10 minutes, footsteps were heard outside the door.
Qiao Xuejun looked outside the door.
Zhao Xian walked towards her. He was too tall, and Qiao Xuejun had to look up slightly to see him completely. Qiao Xuejun then realized that the door frame inside the base seemed to be a little short. She didn't feel it when she passed by, but when Zhao Xian walked through it, it felt like he was going to hit her head at any time.
In just two steps, Zhao Xian stopped in front of Qiao Xuejun, looked at her and chuckled: "Why are you here? Waiting for me? How long have you been waiting?"
"I'll be waiting at 3 o'clock." Qiao Xuejun expressed his sincerity truthfully and patted the chair next to him: "Sit down, Lord, I have something to discuss with you."
Zhao Xian raised his eyebrows and turned to sit down, but gave up: "Forget it, I'm covered in blood, don't let you get it on me. Tell me, what do you want from me?"
As he spoke, he glanced into the duty room and said, "Why did you wait so long? Didn't you find my deputy?"
Wu Haifan, who was in the duty room, came out immediately, and saluted Zhao Xian very seriously: "Captain!"
