At dawn, Su Tao struggled to get out of bed.
I still have a headache, body aches, and a high fever.
Ling Yu flapped his wings on the windowsill and said:
"Have a good rest, have a good rest."
Su Tao rubbed her head and asked, "Did Shi Zijin tell you?"
Lingyu whistled to indicate yes.
Su Tao waved her hands, forced herself to stand up, and began to get dressed and wash up.
There was no way she could stay in bed all day.
Today, not only did he have to go to Dongyang for an important meeting, he also discussed with Gu Mingchi about forming a fleet to go to the coastal areas to sell goods and earn crystal cores. He also made an appointment with Shen Wencheng to take Mr. Mei to see the bone wings.
Finally, I need to finalize the final details with Zhuang Wan regarding the "Talent Recruitment Plan" that will be launched in November.
One thing after another, she is indispensable everywhere.
After washing up and leaving the bedroom, she saw Heizhima had just taken his sinful dirty feet out of her cup.
Su Tao: "You are not allowed to enter the room with chili peppers and flames for three days."
Then, ignoring Heizhima's wailing behind him, he walked straight out the door.
On the way to Dongyang for a meeting, Su Tao clearly felt that the temperature had dropped again, and there were almost no people on the streets.
The driver who came to pick her up sighed and explained:
"It's all because of the skinning incidents these past few days. No one dares to go out. Many people even fled to other bases overnight. Even the survivors and beggars around Dongyang have disappeared by more than half."
Su Tao recalled the number of survivors around Taoyang just now, and there were indeed fewer people.
The driver is also genuine:
"Hey, I heard it's a new, advanced zombie, even more powerful than those winged ones. Boss Su, please don't mind me speaking the truth, but if Dongyang hadn't paid me so much, I really wouldn't have dared to come pick you up. Can you bigwigs please pay attention to safety issues? Don't hold meetings during this special period, or maybe hold them online?"
This is what the driver wanted to ask.
When he saw Su Tao coming, his face immediately fell, he strode over and said unhappily:
"I just called you, why didn't you answer?"
He wanted Su Tao not to come.
As a result, the woman didn't answer his call again.
Su Tao took out her communicator and saw that only Gu Mingchi's call was set to Do Not Disturb.
She narrowed her eyes.
It's easy to guess who did it.
".Sorry, I didn't hear that."
Gu Mingchi saw that her face was not right, it was red, and her voice was a little weak, and his unhappy mood immediately disappeared.
He replied stiffly: "Remember to rest."
Su Tao nodded with a "hmm" and "ahh".
The entire meeting lasted about an hour, and it was finally decided that the convoy would officially depart for the coast on the first of next month, with the first batch of cargo mainly consisting of medicines and food.
The shrewd accountant Dongyang also quickly calculated that if there were no accidents, he could earn 6,000 crystal cores on this trip.
When Su Tao heard this number, her headache and waist pain were gone.
But this happy and relaxing mood did not last long. As soon as the meeting ended, she was invited to the old leader's office and handed her a phone:
"Mr. President, let me talk to you first."
Su Tao shuddered, and her good mood immediately turned into shock and nervousness.
Mr. President actually wants to talk to her?
A year ago, she was just a small-time person at the bottom of Dongyang, and she carefully tried to please the Su family every day in order to have an extra meal.
She never dared to imagine that one day the high and mighty President, a big shot at the pinnacle of power, would call her on his own initiative.
Su Tao calmed down for two seconds and said:
"Hello, Mr. President."
A deep old man's voice came from the other side: "It's Boss Su, right?"
Su Tao realized that the President was indeed in his sixties, but when she saw him on TV as a child, he still looked like a steady middle-aged man.
"Yes, I am. I can't be called the boss, you can just call me Xiao Su."
The President heard her tender voice and said with some emotion:
"It's really the new generation pushing the old generation forward. I heard Xu Chang say that you're only eighteen this year, so calling me grandpa is nothing more than a waste of time. Good boy, I won't waste my words on you anymore. I know everything about Taoyang. Changjing agrees that Taoyang has met the requirements for applying for a base, except for the age limit. I will then send an email to all base chiefs, making an exception and approving Taoyang's status as a Level 3 base."
Su Tao couldn't help but take a breath.
If she remembered correctly, Minister Xu applied for a gathering place for Taoyang.
How come it suddenly jumped so much and was directly promoted to a third-level base, just like Dongyang.
You have to know that the old leader worked hard for twenty years to make Dongyang a third-level base.
The President smiled and said, "A bit surprised? You didn't think we old-fashioned people would break the rules, did you?"
Su Tao nodded honestly: "It's a bit unexpected."
She had even thought that Changjing would reject Taoyang's application.
Taoyang has a close relationship with Dongyang. Shi Zijin had told her before that the old leader had some conflicts with the people of Changjing.
The President said, "Rules are meant to regulate routine things. Taoyang is a miracle and cannot be confined to it."
Su Tao was somewhat moved after hearing this.
Next, the President spoke in detail about Changjing’s series of support and assistance to Taoyang.
Su Tao finally understood what the surprise Minister Xu had told her when he left.
First, Changjing sent a regiment of elite armed personnel to Taoyang, a total of 3,000 people, 800 of whom were people with special abilities.
Led by the regiment leader Dang Weiran, they are stationed in Taoyang to maintain the safety of Taoyang.
Dang Weiran obeyed Su Tao's orders.
It is equivalent to giving Taoyang a powerful independent regiment.
This level of support is quite significant, and no other base has received such an honor so far.
This shows how much Changjing values Taoyang's safety.
The second is weapons support, with all new guns and ammunition available, enough for 5,000 people to consume for a year.
Finally, what Su Tao cares about most is support for scientific research and biological research.
Changjing sent a team of 200 technicians to Taoyang and provided them with a full set of experimental equipment and instruments.
Su Tao's blood boiled and her hands and feet trembled when she heard this on the other end of the phone.
She knew best how hard it was to find scientific research talent and equipment. Even with Zhuang Wan's high salary and high benefits, she couldn't recruit suitable people with real skills and abilities.
Not to mention Ma Dapao, high-end experimental equipment is even scarcer than food and water.
Changjing's support has almost solved all of Taoyang's current problems and shortcomings.
After the President had given her a brief account, he smiled and asked her:
"Are you satisfied with the above?"
Su Tao swallowed and said, "Satisfied. Then what does Chang Jing need Tao Yang to do or provide?"
She is no longer a naive and romantic girl, and it is unlikely that Changjing would provide so much help and support for free.
We have to get something from Taoyang.
But who knew that she actually had such mean intentions.
After listening to this, the President sighed, shook his head and said:
"You might think I'm being hypocritical, but Changjing truly has no agenda. No, to be more precise, we do have agendas, but they are for Taoyang to grow and develop smoothly, encompassing more areas and giving humanity a hope for survival."
"You probably don't know that the entire world will be facing a massive food and water crisis next year. Furthermore, zombies are rapidly evolving. Do you think that only Bone Wing, Painted Skin, or your friend Jiang's sister are mutant zombies?"
"It has also appeared in coastal areas, and there have been three cases abroad, and the number is still increasing."
"If this continues, most of humanity will be extinct within three years. Taoyang is the miracle of this crisis and the last Noah's Ark."
"Out of consideration for the overall situation, Changjing will unconditionally support Taoyang's development."
