Dozens of vehicles drove into the resort one after another, and the survivors inside looked around curiously.
Sheng Huaiqiang parked the car in the square in front of the main building and jumped out of the car.
He reported to Wang Xi and Fatty Sun beside him: "We rescued more than 120 people. In addition, the convoy also picked up 18 people along the way. Master Sun, those 18 people we just picked up need to be taken out and interrogated separately."
Wang Xi, as the chief steward of the resort, and Sun Pangzi, as the head of logistics, both held positions above Sheng Huaiqiang.
Jiang Wu and Bai Feiming are not here now.
Su Ziyu didn't care about anything; she just held Jiang Yanyan's hand and stood guard beside the vehicle full of weapons.
Sheng Huaiqiang could only report to these two people.
Fatty Sun curiously examined Sheng Huaiqiang's full set of equipment and asked, "Did you find the army...?"
Wang Xi interrupted, "Let's not discuss these things here. Let's sort and organize the things first. Also, Master Sun, please arrange dinner and rooms for these people tonight."
During his time at the mountain resort, Wang Xi received tremendous training.
They also became quite organized and methodical when making arrangements.
Upon hearing Wang Xi's words, Fatty Sun nodded quickly.
Sure enough, I'm only suited to be a middle manager. How stupid of me.
No wonder Wang Xi was able to gain the trust of his son-in-law.
Despite her young age, she is very thoughtful.
Following Wang Xi's instructions, Fatty Sun and Sheng Huaiqiang began to arrange for everyone to get off the vehicle and unload the goods.
The eighteen new members who joined the convoy on the road all stood obediently to one side.
Wu Ming, accompanied by two field team members, interrogated each of the eighteen people, deciding their fate.
From the moment Peng Gang and Tan Xiong got out of the car, they looked around curiously.
They thought prison was the best place.
But seeing the environment of the resort, they understood why Jiang Wu chose it as his base.
If a prison is a fortress.
Then this is the place suitable for development.
The continuous mountain ranges surrounding the villa on three sides form a natural barrier.
If we can find another machine to hollow out the mountain, then the resort will have a secure rear area.
All we need to do is seal this side of the opening.
We've come to the right place!
......
It was nearly 8 p.m. when the banquet was about to begin.
The huge restaurant was now filled with round tables covered with red tablecloths, as if a wedding banquet was being held.
Nearly two hundred people, except for the field team members, were all seated together in a random arrangement.
Each table had both original residents of the manor and newly joined survivors.
This was specially arranged by Fatty Sun, with the aim of breaking up those small teams.
Since we've all joined the resort, why are we still sticking together?
It was exactly 8 p.m.
A radiant Jiang Wu led a somewhat weak Bai Feiming to the restaurant.
Without any prompting, the previously noisy restaurant fell silent upon Jiang Wu's arrival.
The anger that had been building up with Su Ziyu for several days had completely subsided, and Jiang Wu was in a great mood. He said with a smile, "Alright, now that we're here at the manor, we're all family. There's no need to be so reserved. I'll just ask you one more question: are you willing to join the manor?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Lao Er and the others shouted, "We're willing!!!"
Immediately afterwards, cheers erupted in the hall.
[Successfully recruited 143 volunteers to join the resort, rewarded with 2860 "Lie-off Points".]
[Lying Down Points: 9870]
Hearing the system notification, Jiang Wu nodded in satisfaction.
143 people, which means everyone is willing to join the resort.
"Alright, Fatty Sun, let's serve the food! Let's all eat and drink to our hearts' content tonight!"
Jiang Wu shouted loudly.
The restaurant immediately erupted in noise, with laughter and cheers creating a lively scene.
Before long, the dishes started to be served, which completely ignited the atmosphere in the restaurant.
Exclamations of surprise continued.
"Wow, so much stir-fried cured pork! The chief is so generous!"
"Is this braised beef? Look at this huge plate!"
"Stir-fried garlic sprouts with eggs! It's been so many days since I've had fresh garlic sprouts, I've almost forgotten what they taste like!"
"My goodness, we've already had nine dishes! And they're still serving!"
"What kind of meat is in this soup? It's actually fresh, and the taste is quite extraordinary!"
"......"
The members of the old mountain villa were also shocked to discover that the soup served last was actually crocodile meat.
They didn't tell the newcomers what it was, and ignored the other dishes, just kept piling the crocodile meat into their bowls.
These people's actions completely baffled the survivors who were unaware of the truth.
Is that some kind of tonic?
In the best corner of the restaurant, Jiang Wu, Bai Feiming, Su Ziyu, Wang Xi, and Jiang Yanyan sat at a table by themselves.
The dishes on the table were more plentiful than those on the other tables.
Unlike the other tables that featured rare giant crocodile meat, his table was filled with large, chunky pieces.
This is a privilege reserved for him and those around him.
Jiang Wu doesn't oppose privileges, but he can't bring himself to share the hardships with his teammates.
He was just a nobody, an ordinary person, not a saint or a hero.
He has always had a clear understanding of his own position.
"Yan Yan, let me introduce you. This is your Aunt Bai."
Jiang Wu introduced Bai Feiming to Jiang Yanyan with a smile.
Bai Feiming knew that Jiang Wu intended to take Jiang Yanyan as his goddaughter, and she smiled as she looked at Jiang Yanyan, becoming more and more satisfied with her.
In this post-apocalyptic world, having children is impractical, so adopting a goddaughter is indeed a good option.
"Aunt Bai," Jiang Yanyan called out this time.
