Li Tang, who had always managed the resort, was naturally quite capable and quickly caught the person who had drugged him.
"Miss, the person who drugged you was Fang Chao, who ranked fourth during training."
This guy is actually quite clever; he knows how to take advantage of the chaos. If the first two get into trouble, people might focus their attention on the third. But he didn't expect Li Tang's tracking skills to be so strong. Even though he secretly instructed others to do the drugging, it was still discovered.
"Ms. Qin, I didn't mean it. I just really want this job. I have elderly parents and young children to support, and I can't live without it. Please give me another chance, and I promise I'll work hard."
Fang Chao knelt on the ground and begged, but Qin Su saw defiance in his eyes.
“Everyone has their own difficulties. If you make a mistake, you should be punished. I hope you will learn from this experience, otherwise, Wancheng will not tolerate you.”
This is a warning. Fang Chao is a bit clever, but he has too many thoughts and is prone to getting into trouble.
Fang Chao shuddered under Qin Su's sharp gaze.
Qin Su didn't say much and had Li Tang take the person out.
The selection process for bus drivers was ultimately postponed.
Fortunately, after this incident, the subsequent selections proceeded without any major problems. In the end, Li Tang selected several experienced individuals with good character.
Business at Qingshi Fish Farm was booming. In just one month, Qingshi Fish Farm became a trading hub for the surrounding cities.
Many people brought their own supplies and set up stalls in Qing City to exchange for what they needed.
Wang Shanshan set up stalls based on the actual situation and charged stall fees. Meanwhile, Wancheng also recruited some management personnel, which provided jobs for the survivors in Wancheng.
Meanwhile, in Wancheng, Qin Su also came up with a way to improve the soil, and the first wave of planting began after the insect plague.
Hard work leads to wealth; everyone saw hope.
"Young lady, if things can continue like this, life will definitely get better."
Now many people have supplies, and with security teams patrolling, the atmosphere in Wancheng is very good.
Compared to the treachery and deceit before the apocalypse, things are now simple and peaceful.
Qin Su looked at the horizon; this life had deviated from the timeline of the previous one. In the previous life, at this time, a sandstorm swept through Wancheng, with sand and dust everywhere, burying the entire city.
However, this life is peaceful and calm, as if the end times have already ended.
"Don't let your guard down. We still need to be vigilant. The changes in the end times are beyond our imagination."
Xu Jingzhi was startled, but quickly regained her composure.
“Miss is right. I should also tell everyone not to let our guard down.”
"Um."
Qin Su wasn't nervous. He didn't dare to say what the future held. They just needed to make the most of the present and then store more supplies.
The people of Wancheng earned a lot of supplies at the Qinghai fishing grounds, which made many people envious, and they wanted to go to Qinghai to fish.
Qin Su didn't stop her; it was a good thing that she was enthusiastic.
Of course, to protect these people, Qin Su established insurance measures. Each person going out to fish only needs to contribute one jin (approximately 0.5 kg) of grain; in case of an accident, they can receive five hundred jin of grain. Naturally, there is no upper limit to the insurance; the larger the insured amount, the greater the compensation.
After this guarantee was introduced, many people did not purchase it.
"We bought some medicine when we went out to sea. It can kill all the fish. It's just about catching dead fish. What danger could there be?"
They were reluctant to part with their food, and because they felt they were highly capable, they thought insurance was useless.
But a few days later, a major incident occurred.
The fishermen were attacked by a large fish and all fell into the sea; none of them survived.
When Wang Shanshan arrived, her face was deathly pale.
“Miss, I saw it. The group of fish that attacked them is not simple. They are intelligent, they know how to avoid the drugs, and they also know how to set traps.”
The fishing grounds in Qinghai are currently closed, and this incident has caused great anxiety among the fishermen.
When Qin Su arrived, the bodies of those people had already been recovered.
To be precise, what was retrieved were dismembered bodies. After being attacked by the large fish, their bodies were torn apart; not a single one was intact.
The smell of blood still lingered on the sea, and the setting sun made the entire bay appear even more crimson.
Many large fish swam in the scarlet sea, and every now and then, they would leap out of the water, seemingly warning the people on the shore.
"Miss, the medicine isn't working on these fish anymore."
Ji Ming ran over in a disheveled state, retrieving the mangled remains from the mouths of the man-eating fish; he had narrowly escaped death.
Qin Su checked him over and found that he only had abrasions. She gave him a bottle of medicine and told him to apply it.
"Go and rest first, leave the rest to me."
After Ji Ming left, Qin Su went to check the body. The body was in a terrible state, and the family members who rushed over after receiving the news broke down in tears.
At this moment, Huo Sijin pulled up a big fish.
Qin Su discovered that these large fish were more powerful than before; their scales and teeth were stronger, their brains were more developed, and their physical abilities had more than doubled.
"No wonder the medicine didn't work on them. At their rate of mutation, they'll probably mutate again soon."
Qin Su also studied the mutated insects in the space, but the degree of mutation of the insects has not changed.
"These fish are mutating so rapidly, there must be something else driving it."
Huo Sijin also took a deep breath: "This area of the sea is likely to become very dangerous in the future."
"It seems we have no choice but to close the Qinghai fishing grounds for now."
Qin Su has no intention of reopening the Qingshi fishing grounds until the bay returns to calm.
"Li Tang, tell the drivers to work hard these next couple of days and get everyone home. We'll talk about the rest when we get back."
Qin Su and Huo Sijin stayed behind to prepare to solve the problem of the giant fish's mutation.
"Did you notice? These big fish are different species from the ones we caught before."
After observing for a while, Qin Su finally discovered the problem.
The bay is now full of these big fish; all the other fish were gone before. She suspects that these fish have taken over the bay and driven away all the other big fish.
Huo Sijin, piloting the helicopter, looked at the large fish swimming on the sea surface that resembled speedboats, his expression grave.
"Abnormalities in organisms are generally caused by environmental factors."
"Susu, look at this bay, doesn't it look a little different than before?"
Qin Su picked up the binoculars and looked out. The bay stretched out in a continuous line, but suddenly there was an unusual protrusion that slowly rose from the other side of the sea.
What is that?
Huo Sijin flew the helicopter over and discovered that what should have been the seabed had slowly turned into an island.
"It seems that the Earth's crust is changing."
Changes in the seabed often foreshadow tsunamis.
The two exchanged a glance and quickly drove the helicopter away.
