Chen Yu looked at everyone calmly, waiting for them to make a decision.
Although he appeared calm and unconcerned about everyone's choices, he was actually quite nervous inside.
His nervousness was certainly not because he feared the Fire Seed Base transport team wouldn't assist him.
Rather, if these people lack the awareness to save themselves, it means that they themselves in their past lives were not worthy of redemption.
After all, these people were in the same transport team as him in his previous life. Although the team had changed members several times in the past three years, most of them did not last until the day he died.
However, they were ultimately just one of the hundreds of thousands of cattle and horses in the Fire Seed Base, and in a sense, to a certain extent, they also represented their past selves.
At this moment, the members of the transport team were also engaged in a fierce internal struggle, and each of their faces was filled with complex emotions.
They looked at each other, trying to find answers in each other's eyes, but all they found was the same confusion and unease.
After a long silence, Liu Long took a deep breath and asked in a deep voice, "If I assist you, will my family members receive the same treatment and be eligible to join the Tianyu Base?"
Chen Yu smiled and nodded upon hearing this: "Of course, and I know that your father is 61 years old this year, and your daughter is only 7 years old. They both meet the welfare policy standards of Tianyu Base. At Tianyu Base, they can not only receive a sufficient supply of high-quality food and living supplies every day for free, but also enjoy free medical and educational resources."
"You...how could you...?" Liu Long stared wide-eyed at Chen Yu in disbelief.
"Hehe, as I said, I know just as much about the Fireseed Base as you do." Chen Yu smiled slightly, a deep glint in his eyes. "Your daughter's father is Liu Guiping, and your daughter is Liu Ling. Am I right?"
"Oh, and I also know that your wife died before the natural disaster, in a car accident, and the driver who caused the accident has still not been found."
"This..." Liu Long's voice trembled, his face full of disbelief.
It wasn't surprising that Chen Yu knew about his father and daughter; after all, everyone in the transport team knew about his family situation, and Chen Yu could easily find out from anyone.
But he never told anyone at the base about his wife's car accident. What does that tell us?
This shows that Chen Yu did indeed conduct a detailed investigation into him personally. In this extremely cold and apocalyptic world, Chen Yu's ability to gather intelligence is so powerful that it makes Liu Long's scalp tingle.
The other three members of the team were also shocked. Judging from Liu Long's reaction, it was clear that what Chen Yu said was true, and they didn't even know about it.
Just then, Zhou Yu, a member of the team, had a sudden thought and said, "So, if I cooperate with you, my wife can also qualify to join the Tianyu Base?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Yu raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Of course you can. Isn't your 'wife' in Haidu? Our base also has a branch base in Haidu. We can arrange for her to be transferred to the Tianyu Base headquarters. If you want to go to the Haidu branch base to reunite with her, that's fine too."
At this point, Chen Yu changed the subject, saying with a half-smile, "However, the premise is that your 'wife' is a real person. If it's just a silicone product, then I'm sorry, our base can't coordinate something like that that wastes resources."
These words immediately created an awkward atmosphere, with Liu Long and the others looking at Zhou Yu with suspicion.
Zhou Yu's face turned bright red. He wished he could disappear into a hole in the ground. He had been careless. He had intended to test Chen Yu with such a secret matter, but he hadn't expected the other party to be so astounding, knowing even such a thing.
Seeing Zhou Yu's expression, Liu Long and the other three understood what was going on.
It turns out that the "wife" Zhou Yu had been boasting about at his home in Haidu was actually a fictitious existence, or at least not as real as he described.
This made them burst out laughing, and at the same time, they gained a deeper understanding of Chen Yu's methods.
"What's so funny? What's so funny? I did this just to give myself one more chance to survive in this apocalypse!" Zhou Yu retorted, his face flushed, trying to make himself look less pathetic. But his rebuttal clearly had the desired effect, instead making the other four laugh even harder.
"Life offers few opportunities to take a gamble, and I've had enough of this backbreaking life at the Fire Seed Base! I'm willing to take this gamble just to get married! I'm going to do it!" Zhou Yu said with a determined look.
Losing face isn't scary. What's important is having a chance to change the status quo and get rid of those miserable days. The Fire Seed Base is bad enough. Even if Chen Yu really lied to them, could the Heavenly Yu Base be any more ruthless than the Fire Seed Base?
Moreover, if I cooperate with Tianyu Base's actions and wait for Huozhong Base to be destroyed, I will have made a contribution. Even if Tianyu Base is a coward, they wouldn't be so cruel as to abandon me after I've served my purpose, would they?
Zhou Yu made a silent calculation in his heart, his eyes gradually hardening.
He understood that in this apocalyptic world, only by giving could one receive, and opportunities were often fleeting.
Chen Yu nodded in satisfaction, then smiled and said, "While your desire to find a wife is admirable, to be honest, I can't guarantee you anything. Our Tianyu Base upholds freedom of marriage, so we don't provide wives for you. Besides, as you know, in these extreme circumstances, men have a much higher chance of survival than women, so..."
