Seeing that Lin Yi was angry, Gu Xiaoman shook her head at the nine people and chased after them.
Seeing Lin Yi suddenly leave, these people panicked again.
"I'm asking you guys, can you do this? We worked so hard to get this opportunity, but you guys just let Boss Lin go!" Ma Guoan complained to those people.
Several people who were willing to follow Lin Yi also echoed him.
"That's right, you guys are really more of a hindrance than a help."
"Fortunately, Lin Yi is willing to give us a chance. If he gets angry and ignores us, you guys will be the sinners of the entire community!"
"Don't you even look at your own moral character? You're still trying to negotiate terms with Lin Yi. Do you have the qualifications?"
…
The three men's faces darkened as they listened to the blame from several people.
"I'm asking you guys if you have any conscience. If he unifies us, wouldn't you also benefit? Besides, I don't believe you're willing to be his thugs!"
"That's right. We came to him to seek refuge, not to protect him."
"In my opinion, Lin Yi has no good intentions. He doesn't give us food and wants to order us around. How can he have such a beautiful dream?"
"You guys!" Ma Guoan's face flushed with anger. He paused and continued, "Didn't Boss Lin already say that as long as we earn merits, we can exchange them for food and water, and even coal for heating!"
"Humph! Who knows if what he said is true? Maybe he's just trying to trick us. Then you'll be free labor!"
"That's right. We just said that to test him, but we didn't expect him to leave like that. It's obvious that he's guilty. If you ask me, it's better to rely on yourself than on anyone else. Let's all nine buildings work together to find food. As long as we don't offend Lin Yi, it'll be fine."
"Yes, who wants to follow us? We are not like Lin Yi. We will share all the food we find equally."
Hearing this, the other few people began to hesitate.
Ma Guoan sneered, "Humph! You've offended Lin Yi, and now you want to drag others down with you. If you had the ability, you would have found food long ago. Don't listen to them."
After hearing Ma Guoan's words, those wavering people immediately understood.
"Li Liang, I'd say you guys should stop being so stubborn and go and apologize to Lin Yi. I don't think Lin Yi is the kind of person who would bother with trivial matters."
"That's right! You are representing everyone in your building now, so don't act on impulse."
"Forget it, let's just ignore them and go find him now while Lin Yi doesn't change his mind."
When Li Liang and the other two heard what they said, their faces suddenly turned ugly.
"Humph, it's really hard to persuade you, damned devil. When he makes you take up weapons and fight others, you will know we are right."
"That's right, you guys have no brains at all, you just believe whatever he says!"
"Don't worry about us, we won't worry about you either! I hope you won't regret it later!"
After saying that, Li Liang and the other two walked towards their own building.
The rest of the people stayed where they were and looked at Ma Guoan.
"You said Lin Yi really didn't lie to us, right?"
"Yes! We are placing our hopes on you this time."
"Hey, there's nothing else we can do now. I haven't eaten for seven days."
Ma Guoan looked at them, patted his chest and said, "I don't think Lin Yi is that kind of person. If you believe me, follow me to find Gu Xiaoman."
Several people were silent for a moment, and finally decided to believe Lin Yi.
"Oh well!"
As they spoke, the six of them walked towards Building No. 10.
…
Lin Yi and Gu Xiaoman went upstairs quickly.
On the way, Gu Xiaoman said, "Lin Yi, I know what you want to do, but I don't think it's necessary! These people are just a bunch of starving people. We can just use them and give them some supplies to keep them from starving to death. Why do you still make those promises?"
Lin Yi stopped and looked at Gu Xiaoman.
Gu Xiaoman was slightly stunned, and her heart was beating fast.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" she whispered.
"If you only want to use them for a short period of time, perhaps you're right, but that's short-sighted. We don't know when this apocalypse will end, and we don't know what the future holds. We must take every step carefully. Either we don't use these people, or if we do, I'll ensure their absolute loyalty. My philosophy is: once unfaithful, never used again."
Gu Xiaoman was slightly stunned. She now seemed to understand what Lin Yi was thinking.
Her idea was different from Lin Yi's. Originally, she just wanted to use these people and let them keep searching for supplies. If the enemy attacked, she would let them fight desperately and squeeze out the last bit of their value.
But Lin Yi's approach is to let these people be self-reliant. If they want to live a good life, they must keep working hard. This is a process of screening and also a process of cultivating confidants.
Those who can't stand the hardship and are lazy and want to reap the fruits of their labor will naturally not be able to hold on, and these are the people Lin Yi wants to screen out.
Those who are willing to work hard will get the rewards they deserve. Once these people enjoy the long-lost material satisfaction in the end times, they will be absolutely loyal to Lin Yi.
Because they would lose this kind of life if they betrayed Lin Yi, the relationship between them became a cooperative one.
When foreign enemies invade, I'm afraid there is no need for Lin Yi to say anything, these people will go up and fight the enemy to the death for their own interests.
Because their interests are tied together, only as long as Lin Yi is alive can they continue to enjoy such a high-quality life.
While she was thinking, the two of them had already reached the tenth floor.
"When they come, you can deal with them by yourself."
After saying that, Lin Yi went straight back to the safe house.
When we returned to the safe house, it was already half past eleven.
Several women started preparing lunch again.
Seeing Lin Yi coming back, several women put down their work and helped Lin Yi take off his clothes.
"Look, your clothes are all dirty. I'll help you wash them. Take off your pants too!" Shengxia lifted her hair and showed a charming expression.
Lin Yi took off his clothes. These clothes were the same ones he wore yesterday and they were indeed a bit dirty.
"Thanks a lot."
After hearing this, Shengxia smiled sweetly.
"It's not hard. Just sit on the sofa for a while and I'll find you some clothes later."
So Lin Yi sat on the sofa.
Although he has a lot of clothes, he doesn't know how to match them.
At this moment, Wang Zihan came over and said softly, "How about I help you match it?"
With that, Wang Zihan went to Lin Yi's bedroom and took out two pieces of clothes in a short while.
"Try it on."
Lin Yi put on the clothes directly. It turned out that Wang Zihan had a good taste.
He was already very handsome, and this outfit took him to a higher level.
